Completed the other half of Alpha Whiscash, which is Noble Lilligant complete. Do you want to do Alpha Electivire next to finish off Noble Avalugg?

Hello! I'm new to VPP and PC in general. Any advice for a new user looking to raise some virtual pokemon of my own? Also do posts in other parts of the forum count toward post totals, or is it just VPP posts?

Waves. Recommends reading at least the rules and obtain pages of The VPP Rules & Guide thread. Covers the main stuff you need to know from the outset. Other than that? Have fun. Views this as kind of a bonus sidegame to being active on the forums, not the main attraction.

Counts any post that increases your post count, not just in the VPP subforum. Suggests looking at the threads of a subforum that interests you. Likely posts there more than somewhere else. Should get you up to the 10 posts you need to request your first VPP quickly enough. Some possible subforums of interest:
  • Pokemon Gaming Central. Covers the games as a whole, as well as spinoffs.
  • Previous Generations (Generations 1-7), Pokemon Switch Games, Legends Z-A, or Pokemon Scarlet/Violet for threads about specific games.
  • Pokemon Anime
  • Pokemon General, for anything else Pokemon-related. Includes a pretty straightforward Favorite Pokemon thread.
  • Forum Games (not Pokemon-focused) or Pokemon Trivia (Pokemon-focused). Offers a number of threads to regularly reply to.

Thanks for the advice and recommendations. I've already read the rules and guide, glad to hear I found all the basics. I'll give those subforums a look :D
 
Ay, got the 10 post requirement already! I noticed the request form includes whether or not you're fully evolving the pokemon. Is there any advantage in not evolving in VPP?

Occasionally needs a specific Pokemon for a challenge, such as the Baby Shower challenges, which only accept baby Pokemon. (Normally allows you to use something like Arbok for a challenge that calls for Ekans, for the record.) Offers a ribbon for owning ten not-fully-evolved Pokemon too. Other than that? No advantage. Takes the same number of posts to raise. Mainly exists for people who like a certain evolutionary stage. (Example: Prefers Torracat over Incineroar.)

Alright, thanks :D
 
I wanted to ask couple of question.

1. Since my last legendary was Zacian-C and Master Pokemon was Mamoswine, hence since then how much more Pokemon I need to ask for these Pokemon ?
2. Since I got my first tag-team Pokemon with @_confused_piplup_ , hence will not be there a ribbon for it, as I guess I had seen something related to it in rules page, but am not so sure ?

1. Needs to obtain ten Pokemon between for each.
For a new legendary: Completed Mamoswine, Toxapex, Corviknight, Drapion, Eelektross, Braviary, Blaziken, and Clawitzer. Totals 8. Will be 9 when you finish Cryogonal. Might be able to turn in a challenge or something for your tenth.

For a new Master: Finished Toxapex, Corviknight, Drapion, Eelektross, Braviary, Blaziken, and Clawitzer. Equals 7 out of 10 on that front.

2. Correct. Qualifies for that Tag-Team Ribbon. Ask for it in the Obtain thread.
 
According to rules and regulations page, we are needed to notify here once we had finished one-half of tag-team Pokemon. Hence in the due process, I am here.



I had finished my half of Greninja which I had obtained as tag-team ally of @_confused_piplup_ . She will finish the requirements from her side according to her pace, as she is quite busy lately. I can assume that now we (the team) had obtained the Pokeball containing Greninja as I had met the requirements from my end, but opening ball will is now dependent upon her!

So let her figure out how Pokeball mechanism work, meanwhile I will proceed with my Solo Pokemon !!

Sure, works for me.
Not sure atm what else on Kleavor's list I don't yet have... aside from Kricketune.

Posted in the Obtain thread.

Checked the stable. Does not have Crobat, Kricketune, Stantler/Wyrdeer, Parasect, or Lopunny. Technically Galarian Rapidash and Alolan Golem too. Believes you have a decent chunk of those, off-hand.

(Also technically several not-fully-evolved stages too. Raised Luxray, but never Luxio, for example.)

Okay here is another question -- how would an Eevee work in VPP? Do you choose the evolution once it reaches 100?

Picks whatever form you want when requesting it in the Obtain thread. May say it somewhere above/below the form, or just say so in the form itself. Would accept something like this:

Name: Devalue
Pokémon: Vaporeon
Fully Evolving: Yes
Post Count: 25453
Northern or Southern Hemisphere: Northern
Own a Rainbow Stone: Yes

Recommends something kind of similar for middle evolutions. For example:

Name: Devalue
Pokémon: Ivysaur
Fully Evolving: No
Post Count: 25453
Northern or Southern Hemisphere: Northern
Own a Rainbow Stone: Yes
