Week 3: Pokémon Photobomb!
Spoiler: Pokémon GO Weekly Quests: Introduction!
Welcome to Pokémon Go: Weekly Quests! This is a weekly event designed to provide an extra challenge to all of us Pokémon Go players out there and see who really is the best trainer. Take part in these fun challenges to give some structure to your Pokémon Go adventures and see if you can come out on top. We'll be hatching eggs, hoarding Pokémon, taking pictures and lots more, so stick around and see which events tickle your fancy. Don't worry if you're nervous of competition - some weeks we'll be competing for the win, some weeks we'll be working together towards a common goal and some weeks we'll be trying to meet personal milestones all in the name of fun. Any event suggestions are of course welcome!
Week 3: Pokémon Photobomb!
Now it's time for the most requested event last week!
This week's event works a little differently to the last couple of weeks. This time we're not going out hunting for Pokémon or building up points - instead we're going to become photographers! It's time to document Pokémon living in their natural habitats and see what they get up to when we're not looki-wait, is that Abra sat on the toilet? The aim of this week is to take photos of Pokémon in the wild which fall under the categories listed below. You can submit each photo for more than one category and the photo which is chosen to best fit that category will win the prize.
Without further adieu, here are the categories we'll be using this week. Hover over them for descriptions!:
Aesthetic Natural Cute
Unique Humour
Unique Humour
All entries will automatically be submitted for the Unique category, but otherwise you need to specify which categories you want to enter your picture for when you post it! Feel free to post as many or as few pictures as you wish, and as stated before each picture can count for as many categories as you'd like. A fan vote will decide the winners once all submissions are in (deadline: August 15th) where I'll post all of the entries for each category and we'll vote as a community (August 16th - 18th) on which we think fits each category best.
All clear? If not then feel free to ask questions in this thread to clarify, otherwise let's get to snapping some pictures and I can't wait to see the results!
Rules
- Submissions for this contest end on August 15th!
- A voting round will then take place from August 16th - 18th to decide the winners.
- Each photo can be submitted for different categories!
- Use the built-in picture taking option in GO to take your pictures as this displays your username!
- Progress updates and general discussion are encouraged :)
- Feel free to double-post if you have two updates to make and no one has posted in between!
- This goes without saying but do not submit any NSFW entries or stolen entries!
Simply post your interest in the thread to take part.
- Squirrel
If any of these events take your fancy then feel free to request them in this thread for next week and I'll bump them up, otherwise I'll pick one randomly!
