    Not that I mind a discount, but you sure about that number? 😇 =p
    Mainly pointing these sort of things out as I just copy paste the stuff into my stats and prefer to avoid errors xD

    We are having a talk about this as Seasonal came way before some of these others. I've realized that it may look and seem confusing as some versions are part of the Seasonal discount but is it 15 from the number OR 160 off. The very basic is 175 for normal and 160 for seasonal which is a 15 post discount.

    As of right now I'm seconding Megan's numbers as being okay. That's a mistake on our part and working on fixing it. So you are all good for your numbers.

    So Alolan & Galarian Forms can have discounts? =o
    I've been assuming they were just a fixed 200 posts.

    Good to know =o

    Well in the Guide Tag-Team, Legendary, Ultra Beasts, Unown or Pairs & Sets are listed as NOT qualifying for Seasonal so it would be assumed that if its not listed they qualify but in which way. That's the why we're going to talk about so its clear for everyone and we don't have confusion for the future.

  • From the Starter FAQ:

    Q: What Pokémon can receive a seasonal discount?
    A: Non "special" Pokémon can count as seasonal, so Legendaries, Ultra Beast, Pairs, Gigantamax, Mega, & Regional Formes that require a stone are NOT ELIGIBLE.

    DAMMIT! >_<
    One of these days I'll get back to being competent, again. I swear!!!

    Well, enjoy your discount, I guess. Seriously, you can keep it. Though, just to be clear: this was me messing up. There's no discount on special Pokemon. Pokemon that get discounts are those on season (160 posts), as well as when someone belongs to a respective club (150 posts). And for the latter: season takes priority!

    We do want to change some stuff. But that's all still future talk.

    Still, I'm very sorry if I caused any confusion. ._.

    You get a non-shiny Cacturne and 10 points for your master!
    For your Shine Bright Like a Diamond challenge you get a non-shiny Bisharp and 400 points!

    I do like Skarmory! Very good Pokemon to pick! :)

    Things got confusing there for a bit, but I was initially under the impression it was a fixed 200 for Alolan/Galarian forms, so clearing up confusion is always good, I guess?

    I don't mind if the number gets rerun and gets changed to the 200 tbh.

    Like I said: it's fine. Take it as compensation for the confusion.
    And I can always double the amount of posts you need to make for the next couple VPPs if you want. :3

  • Done with my Galar Darmanitan.
    I should probably wrap up my final Vivillon challenge before I forget about it xD
    So one seasonal butterfly is next up =3

    Name: ReKoil
    Pokémon: Vivillon (Tundra)
    Fully Evolving: Yes
    Post Count: 10.300
    Hemisphere: Northern
    Own a Rainbow Stone: Non-shiny please =3

    Also, I was wondering if the 'Welcome to Alola' & 'Welcome to Galar' challenges are repeatable?
    With the regional forms and all their stages I wanna raise in the future I'd have enough to complete each of these twice.

    Celebrates a birthday this month. Wishes to claim a free non-shiny Torracat, 100 points, and perhaps the Birthday Ribbon? (States the month of for the Pokemon and points. Assumes similar for the ribbon.)
