When I adopt eggs from the Lab, I kinda like seeing the "egg's no longer there, someone was faster than you" message. It's wholesome to realise that somewhere out there, some other person in the world is also adopting eggs right now.

Feels like forever since a new Pokemon game has been released

Event Distribution ended yesterday. Time for another event?

Fun Fact: Prof. Rowan handed out an average of 74 Igglybuff eggs per day in the last 7 days

give me event pokemon ideas

Which shiny would you like to own, regardless of how unlikely it is that it ever comes true? ✨

Just completed my 2024 goal 🎉💪

As a reminder: As part of the QoL initiative announced in this year's anniversary post, I set myself the following two goals:
(1) Reduce the amount of unresolved, confirmed bugs to less than 100
(2) Fix all reported spelling mistakes

Since the anniversary (July), about 200 bugs were fixed/resolved!

Sometimes I adopt fully scanned, unwanted eggs from the lab (e.g. Easy Bug Pokemon sitting there for 4+ mins), hoping that my sacrifice will make the next person happy

Hatched anything good so far today? 🥚🐣🔨

A server crash is exactly what I needed on Christmas day.

News post will be up soon'ish, lemme take a breather first

Long story short: everything should be fully fixed now

Edit: Full statement here

Happy Holidays! 🎄🦌

#NewBeginnings

Tbh, I am hoping to spend less time on my phone in 2025.

My (real) life has been rather stressful in 2024. I often have to work on todos/tasks that are not very fulfilling but just "have to be done". I "like" what I do IRL - don't get me wrong - but I wish I could have more time for creativity and following my inspirations. Sometimes, the mundane tasks and deadlines dictate my entire week.

And so my phone usage is a perfect indicator for how well I am feeling. When I am stressed or unsatisfied, I automatically waste time on my phone for that quick dopamine kick. It's not the problem, it's a symptom.

On the plus side: I forgot to mention in the news post that, as of this year, it is no longer possible to "lose" an egg from a Christmas Gift when your party is full. The gift will simply tell you to come back again once a slot in your party is free. (This was also implemented for sky gifts last year)

Task: catch 5 Pokemon at the beach
Weather: Thunderstorm

Okay, that is the ultimate (unintended) troll 💀

I played God now and changed the weather. Send me a PM tomorrow if you were online during thunderstorm and went offline before this update, in case you were negatively affected by this.

Wait, why does the ranklist say that there is a shiny Glastrier... Out of curiosity, I wanted to check who owns it - and the database tells me that there is none?
Wha-
Am I dumb right now or...

Tomorrow's December 1st... and you know what that means 🎄📅

Would anyone be interested in renting my Lapras chain until this Sunday...?

Shiny chance is 3.44%.
Cost is 25 Ice Gems + 25 Water Gems. This is lower than what I actually have to pay (I have 0% discount), but I'll also use daycare + TG eggs for rented slots.

Limited to 24 eggs for now. Just send GTS gift if interested.

Have been lab hunting (Paldean Research) for a couple of weeks.

And now that I'm back to a shiny hunt (Lapras), I really have to fight against muscle memory and stop myself from adopting lab eggs lol

Anyone's planning an ice hunt for next week? ❄️⛄🌟

What's your next big shiny hunt? 💪✨
