If you have any suggestions for future themes, those go there.
Hello, and apologies for my delay in posting this thread! It's been a busy May so far. I'll waste no time in introducing our theme. Naturally, the sequel to April Showers would be... MAY FLOWERS That color was picked from Bellossom, a wonderful poster child for this theme. She's not the only one, though! Here is a full list of Pokemon that have been considered eligible for this prompt. Bulbasaur line Oddish line Bellsprout Chikorita line Hoppip line Sunkern line Celebi Roselia line Cacnea Lileep line Plant Cloak Wormadam Cherubi line Shaymin Munna Petilil line Maractus Deerling and Spring Sawsbuck Meadow, Elegant, Garden, and Fancy Vivillon Flabebe line Oricorio Cutiefly line Fomantis line Bounsweet line Comfey Bruxish Gossifleur line Flower Sweet Alcremie Sprigatito line Glimmet line Ogerpon If there is a Pokemon you think should be on this list that didn't make it, just let me know your reasoning and I might be able to let you hunt it! The pink names don't mean anything, they're just to break up a long list for readability. The badge of the month is... As usual, feel free to indulge in this month in other ways than shiny hunting. I'd love to see people's flower pictures from their walks, or art you've been making that incorporates flower themes... The limits are only that of your own creativity! Happy hunting~

i got her yesterday!!!! :DDD was a nice break from all the, uh, phione eggs lmao. it's funny cause while i was doing one method i was realizing the pros it had over the other one but also the CONS as well — eggs kills my circle pad and is a herculean repetitive task, but i don't have to keep my phone out the whole time to count the encounters!!! i even accidentally killed the chain/battle before 255 twice lol (am playing on moon), so it was actually 1 to 138, then to 295 (so it'd reset at a nice 550 + took a break day), and then i actually got it before then x') i had remembered to buy more adrenaline orbs (had like 2 left), but i forgor about the heal balls, so i still only had 4... but thankfully she stayed in the first one!! <3 the name is because on the first day (where i went to 295), i was with some friends, and i kept describing my SOSing as "taper des cerises" (whacking cherries) — until my friend sitting next to me looked closer and went "c'est pas une cerise ça, c'est une fraise ?" (that's not a cherry, that's a strawberry?). i asked two other people their opinion and then went to check what poképédia said it was. and after the very helpful "small pokémon that resembles a fruit", it actually said the fruit was specifically "un mangoustan"! (a mangosteen — well, gee, that evo name sure makes sense now) so instead of just naming her straight up the fruit, i put a similar sounding word that means mangoose lol. then i checked real quick if i had a rare candy since she was already level 20, but i didn't seem to find one, so i randomly tried going to poni hoping they'd have high-ish leveled stuff i could punch there? the magikarp i fished up was 20 (not great) but the grass gave me a 40 gumshoos (much better) and pikzo (my starter decidueye from that og 2016 file who's prepped with false swipe) crit BOTH of them lmao
here is mangouste evolved also ^_^!! and THEN. i went to check pelago to restock my leppas (and found out again i just had a full harvest of 12x6 x3 waiting in there which was definitely nice lol) and put pikzo in the exp island a bit (he's been only been like 71 this whole time)... and there were both a carbink AND a metang waiting there to be adopted x'D i of course didn't have the heart to just shoo them away, so i named the carbink Moira after reflection cave (Grotte Miroitante, has mirrors (miroir)) cause that's where i'll Eventually go hunt the carbink in my signature below, and the metang Theudebert from picking one of the names on the wikipedia page for the year 531 (number of encounters this hunt took) :)

Well, was trying to squeeze in a Spriggy hunt, but life said no. Thankfully, this friend came into my life and saved the day so I can be badged!

angerandagony Awarded! Anyone else who got a Bounsweet is also permitted to submit theirs, even though it is now June, since it was no doubt obtained during May. The June challenge thread is pending! We're just working on the badge at the moment.
