    It's time, yet again, for an eggcellent adventure!

    Welcome, one and all, to PokéCommunity's seventeenth Great Egg Swap!

    How Does it Work?

    1. Breed ONE egg. It can be absolutely anything you like - the more unusual the better!

    2. Register your name here. Use the registration form below to register. It will appear in the scoreboard and you will be assigned a number. You cannot begin swapping until you've got a number.

    3. Get swapping! Swap your egg with someone using the standard trade system, then swap that egg with someone else. Keep swapping with as many people as you can.

    4. Report it. Once you have completed your swap, post here using the report form detailing who you swapped with. 1 swap = 1 point each.​


    You can register all throughout the event, but bear in mind that the sooner you do it the sooner your name gets on the list!

    And of course, after it has finished, be sure to post which Pokémon you got!

    This event will run the entire length of the GT from 14th - 28th July.

    This event is open to Generation IX games only.

    A Few Rules...

    1. Breed ONE egg for this event. Once you have traded that egg, you cannot breed another.

    2. Do not switch the egg you receive with any other eggs you happen to have in your game.

    3. You may only use one game for the event.

    4. DO NOT LET THE EGG HATCH. Trade directly from a box to prevent this from happening.

    5. Your swap points will only be counted when both users post to report the swap. If you're unsure on how it works, have a look through last time's thread.

    6. Once you have swapped, you may not swap with the same person again until at least one of you have swapped with another person. Try to swap with a variety of people.

    7. Avoid trading in circles - it's just the same eggs going around and around. Try waiting for others to come online.

    8. Do not deliberately exploit the system to boost your score - (through excluding players, trading pacts, etc.). Anyone caught doing this will be disqualified. If you suspect any player of being in a trading pact or are somehow cheating the system, you can PM the hosts anonymously.

    9. NO HACKED EGGS. Do not create an egg that is not legitimately obtainable in the games (e.g. a Mew egg).​

    If you're the first to report the swap:

    If you're the second, quote the first post:
    (Quote of first report)

    Confirmed. Swapped with: (Number) + (Name)

    Feel free to post chat along with the report, just make sure the report comes first so we can keep track of your points.

    Remember:
    If there are not two player numbers in a confirmation post (1 in the quote, 1 in your post) the points will not count.

    Team: Aqua (I finally see what you meant. XD)

    Game: Violet, but I do have Scarlet as well (I just have to figure out the egg getting process in Scarlet).

    I prefer to use Shield as I find getting eggs easier

    Welcommme! So for the sake of an even playing field, I'm trying to stick to Gen 9 games so everyone is on the same platform (otherwise we end up with a two-tier system). So if you have Scarlet or Violet, that would be preferred!

    I mean, I could probably just use the egg I get from Jacq. It's still randomized in what you get for the starter... would that be okay? Otherwise, trying to figure out the whole egg hatching process thing for ScarVio is going to give me a real headache. >< I just have to remember which of the two has it that I haven't actually hatched it. x.x I was honestly kinda thinking on that and what not tbh.

    (Also question, for rule 1 it means we choose one Pokémon to breed and hand out eggs for?)

    The idea is that you just breed one egg and then swap that egg with someone else for their egg, and you both get a point. You then swap that egg with someone else for their egg, and so on. At the end of the GT you can hatch the egg, and you may end up with your own egg back, or a completely random egg. The fun is in the surprise of what Pokémon you get!

    Any egg is fine, so this is OK!
