Welcome to Gaia! ::

The legendary lotto will not be occurring more often. The advisement that you shouldn't roll if you don't want the legendary is not anything new. When the lotto was made, we asked that as a courtesy, people not roll for legendaries if they didn't really want them, but upon seeing more and more people rolling for the legendary "just because" and completely disregarding that request, we edited the lotto once again, further stressing this courtesy and also adding a limit on competitive legendaries to dissuade people from doing it any more. Furthermore, we set it to happen every three months because legendaries are supposed to be rare, and so having a lotto every month or every other month would be too frequent of a giveaway. However we wanted to have a consistent opportunity for a random legendary to be given away as well, so every three months seemed like a fair number, considering that, as Lia said, we have, and will, occasionally hold events with legendaries as a prize on top of the lotto, and of course there's also shards to collect and achievements to work towards for a legend of choice as well, so there are many opportunities to get a legendary.

Secondly, yes, you can choose to give away or trade legendary summon items if you wish, though if you got them competitively, they would still count towards your 3 competitive legendaries regardless of whether you have them still or not.

However, that being said, no, it is not an excuse to try and get a summoning item that you don't want, to use as a bargaining chip to get a legendary that you do want. That's simply not okay. If you don't want the legendary, out of courtesy and respect for the other members of this guild, you should bow out of this lotto and allow those who actually want the legend to have a shot at getting it and using it.

So....will the April event be expanding past April or not? There was that poll but with only three days left I'll start moving my characters towards the exit.

Heeeeeyyyy….

So I was wondering in terms of the guild itself, exactly what the timeline is in regards to actions done by the pre-existing Pokemon criminal teams? Like what is exactly considered canon? I wanted to know for the sake of a character who I intend to have some history with one of the teams, but I’ve kind of seen and received mixed information concerning exactly what has and hasn’t happened. So how are they being treated?

For example, are the game actions canon to some degree? Or for the sake of the guild timeline, they’ve never occurred at all and the teams just exist and kind of operate as we see fit? Or have they indeed occurred, but the timeline is kind of an alternate future setting, where the teams are once more returning to try something different?

I’d just like to know for my own peace of mind. It’s a bit hard for me to build a character to include these elements without really knowing where they stand in reference to the guild world itself. sweatdrop

It would be silly to make people go to a special place to remove an HM, so trainers can just replace an HM move if they want.

No worries and thank you! Much appreciation to the mods for doing that! x3

Yes, Gym Leaders get the level bonus as well. But since Take Down doesn't deal reduced or extra damage they cancel each other out. I've gone ahead already, however, and added in the attack and defence bonus from Sheena's attack

Apologies, it seems we have that half of hoenn kind of bungled up.
and lol, strong currents should be preventing people from going to pacifidlog from slateport.
Thank you for mentioning that, we will look into fixing it.

You can apply it to the Pokemon right away, but you will need to make mention of it somewhere in your post to let us know that you have used it
