VPP Community DCC - Ask questions & chat!
. The VPP Community DCC A place to relax and talk with your fellow trainers! Welcome!Hi everyone! Welcome to the Virtual Pokemon Pet DCC. Here you're free to chat, ask questions, schedule trades, and everything else you'd like to do! You can ask fellow trainers to arrange tag-teams, talk about new VPPs you've gotten, pitch ideas to the staff, and generally hang out! If we get questions that keep popping up regularly, they'll be added to the FAQ in the Guide. |

Edit: Just noticed other changes, such as the new challenges. Added a lot of them. Spotted some other interesting things too, like posting milestones and new ribbons. Missed the boat on the Eeveelution Ribbon. Hard pass on every shiny eeveelution. |
Quote:
hadn't noticed it yet xD Anyway, I'm definitely down for a Meowstic tag =3 |
Just a couple questions for clarification:
Quote:
Quote:
So how do you get the Unown themselves then? 🤔 Or is the spelling out thing separate from obtaining Unown themselves and only for obtaining other mons using the Unown gimmick? Or do you instead get the Unowns that make up the word of the VPP? Like, Skrelp would get you Unown S, Unown K, Unown R, Unown E, Unown L & Unown P. Asking mainly because this part reads highly ambiguous to me: Quote:
With the addition of the Unown challenge I intend to start grabbing some Unowns after my next legendary =3 |
Quote:
Quote:
However, you can use every Unown you raised only for one free VPP. Our Guide is currently still being ironed out, so sorry for all the confusion. ^^" |
I didn't realize we got a new DCC. The artwork there on the OP is lovely.
I'll take a look at the guide later to check on the cool new stuff, but I'd just like to wish everybody luck on the Community Event! Edit: The guide says legends can be Tag Team but Arceus can't. Is that every Arceus, only Type Arceus or an editing mistake? |

If anybody wanna do a Tag Team, just let me know. |
Daaaaamn y’all been working your butts off in here, haha. I’m so proud of this team! (´,,•ω•,,)♡

How does Greenery Day work? Says -10 posts on all Grass-type Pokemon. Does that apply to all Grass-types currently being raised, or Grass-types started on that day only?
(Serves as a good reminder too. Occurs on April 29. Remembered an event during the Easter Community event. Spaced on it until right now.) |
Quote:
|
Fair. Seemed awkward to adjust everyone's ongoing Grass Pokemon, in terms of stat-tracking.
On that note, does anyone wish to start a Grass-type Tag Team during the event? Prefers Shiftry for one of N's challenges. Would not be opposed to Lotad, Snivy, Serperior, Swadloon, Leavanny, Lilligant, Maractus, Skiddo, Gogoat, Rowlet, Decidueye, or Flapple either. |
I'm not sure if Tags count for that event, but I'd be down for a Serperior or Leavanny Tag if you want ^.^
(or any stage of those lines really) |

My tag-team partner went MIA so I’m still waiting for enough time to pass until I can post an inactivity clause request and start doing tag-teams again... I miss co-raising Pokémon with everyone! 。゚(。ノωヽ。)゚。 |
StCooler and I are done. Technically, I would wait for Starlight for our special Tag Team. However, I'm not quite sure when she'll be back. So, I may still be able to do a quick one.

The problem is that Tag Teams also depend on the other user, and they might take a while

Livin' through it right now, my friend. But I'm sure at least one of our more infamous regulars would be willing to help Megan out in a proper tag-team speedrun! ;) *glances at ReKoil & Roni* |
Quote:
I'm slacking, I know .... I have brought shame upon the house of Glaceon :sadwick: =p |
Quote:
I am literally going to sit back and watch you unintentionally accumulate 25 posts over the course of the next hour. |
Do you need a Legend Plate (and 3 normal types) for your first Arceus? Noticed the Legend Plate (50% off in May) in the Mart. Indicates needing it in the Arceus Type Creation challenge, but not in the Mart or the Legendaries section.
Also, wow on that "Who Came First?" challenge. Requires two legendaries, sure, but 5000 points? Might be the biggest bang for your buck on there. Considers the Zodiac Challenge fairly strong too. |

I'm a little bit upset that I keep rolling shiny on other people's VPP while I myself had the last seven VPPs all be non-shiny. :(
Quote:
|
I remember that happened to me for a period, where like at least 8 VPPs in a row I did rolled shiny. I know it’s not outside of the realm of possibility, I mean even a coin toss can land on heads a theoretical infinite number of times.
But then it’s like, why you gotta not work in my favor when I want you too. ლ(ಠ_ಠ ლ) |
Would anyone be interested in Tag Team raising a Castform or Sawsbuck with me?
They now have challenges related to them and they only require 4 VPP's each. I'd be down for anything I don't yet have though if not. Anyway I'm available for tags =3 |

Finally caught up on drawing tamagotchis. Let Ninetales sit for quite a while. May not care much for Vanilluxe. Cannot claim to be a good artist either. (Copies pretty closely.) Still chuckled while making the ice cream cone's.
Spoiler:
_____________ Would be interested in a tag-team with someone also. Earns an extra 100 points for starting one today (May 5th, Children's Day). Favors N's challenge Pokemon, especially the seasonals (Shiftry, Ninjask, Gastrodon West, Rhyperior, and Mamoswine). Could be convinced to do other non-seasonal N challenge Pokemon or some unrelated seasonal Pokemon like Yanmega, Skarmory, Flapple, Noivern, Rowlet/Decidueye, Fletchinder, Staraptor, and Hitmontop. |
Quote:
I would 100% be down for a tag-team but I have to wait… something like 20ish more days before I can participate in a new one. (; ̄д ̄) But yeah we definitely did not skimp on challenges that we thought would be fun and play more into VPP mechanics (like N and his seasonal teams!). We tried to really shake up what challenges were previously seen as and just give the whole thing some more personality. :) And hey! It’s far from the end! We’ve got a whole new gen on the horizon after all! |
Quote:
We should be able to get a club discount for the Rainy or Snowy form =3 Since we're both in the Water and Ice clubs ^.^ |
Quote:
|
Anyone have any specific challenge or goal you're working towards atm? I'm trying to finally reach 6 Legendaries.. I definitely did not take advantage of my ability to get them early on in my VPP journey, so I feel like I have a lot of catching up to do. I'm also slowly creeping my way towards having a Silver Medal in all types but, uhhh, that'll take a bit longer me thinks.
What about y'all? |
The Mega-thon challenge is my current focus. I only need to finish Mega Metagross and I'll have the 10 Megas required for finishing it =D
I also intend to do the Castform and Sawsbuck challenges, but I want the Mega-thon done first =3 I also need to raise a couple Electric and Poison types. They are the only types I have no Bronze medals of D= |
Aims for the N challenges currently. Funds the later goal of ten Mega evolutions.
Probably accumulates enough points without the N challenges, given the new Mega Stone discounts in September and November. Averages maybe 600-650 per Mega Stone. Already bought two. Totals 4800-5200 for the remainder. Drops to 2400-2600 with the discount. Sits on 2035 points without redeeming any medals or challenges. (Sees little point. Declines to use Pokemon on the any six shinies challenge. Detracts from more interesting challenges. Qualifies for maybe Grass, Ice, and Ground Bronze medals. Waits for a more meaningful reward there.) |
I guess I'm working on medals.
I suppose I should start working on the Arceus challenge too. |
Hi people, I m basically new to this section of the forum, but especially I have almost no knowledge of how things work lol. So, I was reading the guide and I noticed that there are challenges and I was a bit unsure on how to apply. Like, I have to say it somewhere or can I just ask for the VPP ( I wanted to do the Ash Sinnoh challenge btw)
|
Quote:
In order to keep track of your finished VPPs you can/should make a thread in this section. Also: if there are things in the guide that need to be clearer, then let us know. So we can make it clearer. :) |

Quote:
But like Megan said, if anything is at all confusing or you're unsure of something, don't hesitate to ask! And there's some wonderful examples in the threads below of how to keep track of your finished VPPs (if you want!), that'll give you an idea of how we generally organize stuff around here. :) |
Oh right, I finished my half of Castform (Rainy) at some point.
I keep forgetting to post 😅 |

Does anyone wish to start a tag team on the 22nd? Celebrates Ash Ketchum's birthday on that day. Adds an extra 200 points. Agrees to pretty much anything not already owned. Prefers to avoid the N challenge fossil Pokemon, though (Kabutops, Omastar, Cradily, and Armaldo). Plans to complete those as sets.
|
Quote:
...If the VPP Team could perhaps show this old fae some mercy and approve my inactivity clause a little early? If waiting until the 22th, that's only 5 days early! Quote:

Sure go ahead, already :P |
I'm also game for Tag Teams if anyone wants one.

Omg thank you! If needed I was prepped to pull the, “b-but my 11th PC anniversary is in 9 days!!” card. Which, while true, has nothing to do with this, lmao. Quote:
Spoiler:
Any of those Pokémon are fair game for me! So just let me know what works for you. :) |

(Also an FYI, I'm seeing enough Ground and enough Water types in your stats to claim their Bronze Medals =3) |
Quote:
I did, I just haven't updated my stats after asking for them. My PC is still not working and I'm not messing with that bbcode by hand, lol. |
Quote:
But if you want an Ash challenge mon, how about Krookodile? Or Pignite/Emboar? |
Quote:
Do you want to post on the Obtain thread first or would rather I did? |
Quote:
I posted my half of the tag request ^.^ |
Quote:

Quote:
okay imma go turbo |
Finished my half of Emboar btw
|
Finished with Politoed!! :D
Open to new tag-team, looking for Electric, Fighting, Fire, Ground, Poison, & Steel types! |

And done! :D
Open to another tag-team with anyone available atm. I'm specifically looking for Steel, Dragon, or Electric types -- but honestly, I'm not picky and just looking to help with challenges. n_n;; |
Quote:
Fulfills Electric and Steel with Togedemaru. Would be fine with Zebstrika, Galvantula, and Alolan Raichu also. (Affords a regional stone easily enough after yesterday.) |
Quote:
Hm, I'm leaning towards Togedemaru, but wouldn't mind A-Raichu either.. it's like a 70 / 30 for me. You can make the final call if you'd like! |
Quote:
|
Quote:
And on that note, if anybody else wants to do a Tag Team, let me know. |
I'm available for Tag Team if anyone's interested.
|
Just wanted to coin a potential Challenge, I just checked the list of Challenges and didn't see one with this focus.
It's a challenge involving Pokemon with royalty in their name. Royal Pokemon: Nidoqueen, Nidoking, Seaking, Slowking, Kingdra, Slaking. Addtional options: -Vespiquen (likely originates from Queen, though short an E) -Tsareena (Tsar is likely from tsarina, a Russian female monarch) Edit 6 July: completely forgot about Kingler! |

-Electric Rodent Ribbon: Given that there's an Eeveelution Ribbon, why not make one involving the counterpart mascot too? You'd have to raise: Pikachu, Raichu (either form or potentially both forms), Pichu, Plusle, Minun, Pachirisu, Emolga, Dedenne, Togedemaru, Morpeko (and Pawmi once SV are out) -The Power of Friendship ribbon: Raise the evolved form of all Pokemon that evolve via friendship/happiness. This would be a total of 20 Pokemon. This does include a regional form (Alolan Persian), as well as one legendary (Silvally) though. For three stage mons where the Friendship evolution is from 1st to 2nd stage, such as Budew to Roselia, I'd personally say either Roselia or Roserade would count. -Excluded from Evolution / Single Stages Ribbon: Raise all normal single stage Pokemon (so excluding legendary Pokemon and UB's). Would be roughly 85 Pokemon. Something to note here, some Pokemon have a regional form that does evolve, but the original doesn't. For example Farfetch'd. Imo Kanto Farfetch'd would still be a part of this Ribbon, but obviously not the Galarian one. -Shiny Rainbow Ribbon: I know there's already 2 Ribbons related to shinies, but I watched some videos on YouTube at some point where people race to be the first to catch a shiny for each color of the rainbow. Thought it could be a Ribbon in VPP too: a Ribbon for shiny Pokemon with each of the rainbow colors as their dominant/most prominent color. People wouldn't have to obtain their shiny VPP's in rainbow order, but when requesting/submitting for the ribbon they would have to list them in rainbow order. Using the participation ribbons as a base I slapped them together to make a new ribbon graphic: https://www.pokecommunity.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=102182&stc=1&d=1657571486 |
dammit he's got me with the rainbow ribbon why can't i ever say no to people to put rainbows in front of me
(also not saying no btw! but it is something the team will discuss!) |

I finished my half of Bastiodon btw

Is available for a new Tag Team with someone. Agrees to most any Pokemon you want to raise. Only requests something not raised before.
|
I am also available for a Tag Team! I'm specifically looking for a Fire type atm, but I would also agree to Electric and Dragon. I have enough points to buy items if anyone wants to tag-team a Mega or GMax too! :)
|
Also still looking for a Tag Team, would be fine with whatever I don't already have.

Lol perfect, I'm already working on two Typhlosion as we speak.
Anyway, still open for a Tag-Team! And have both a SYLVEON and a MINIOR [YELLOW-CORE] available for trade! If you haven't yet, make sure you check out our updated (and much better imo) Trading Mechanic! https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?p=10488725#post10488725 |

Quote:
We've both got the Trade Cable so we can do both trades if you're interested. Do you want to do Sylveon for Torracat and Minior for Yamper? I am a fool and already forgot the rules lol. One regular/regional trade a week, lol. You down for just the Sylveon for Torracat? |
Quote:
We could swap the other two in a week as well if you want =3 I raised these quite a while ago for trading and they've just been sitting there waiting for a new home for so long xD |
Quote:
I'll post my half of the trade in the Obtain thread. Luckily that lil' kitty is gonna earn me some more goodies! Edit: Oh and if you named the Torracat do let me know as I would like to preserve it! |
Quote:
But like said I never actually named it in my stats, so you can just come up with a new name if you want. |
Quote:
reminds me of my dearly departed cat Bootsie. <33 tysm for the trade!! |
Oh! Also still looking for a tag-team buddy when anyone is available! No specific preference for Pokémon atm, just looking to help! :D
|
Quote:
I always say I need to get back into VPP and honestly, I do this very much in short bursts followed by... not much. But I've seen some of the new things happening in here and couldn't resist ♥♥♥ |
Quote:
watch I’m gonna be the one who is 100+ posts behind lmao Which one would you like to raise, dear? I’m honestly open to any of them! Though I do admit I’m partial to the Autumn form cause it’s my fav season and Normal/Ground type. (⑅˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈ ) But please pick whichever one you have your heart set on and we can come up with some cute names! Edit: oops sry it’s Normal/Ground not Grass my bad! |
