Weekend Free-for-All!

Hello, trainers!



It's been a couple weeks since we had a proper free-for-all, so let's catch up! How's the event been treating you? With the nest migration happening a couple days ago, anything interesting pop up near you? Let's chat.

Anybody know what happens if you evolve a Santa-hat Pikachu? Do you get a Santa-hat Raichu? Or does the hat go away?

I've caught two of them so far. There have been others on my Nearby/Sightings, but I haven't reached them in time, or they were in the wrong direction. Ah, well, there are still many days left.

I walked seven miles over the last two days (omg ouch) and hatched a lot of eggs, all 5Ks acquired since the start of this event, but no luck yet with the new mons. Dang it. I'll keep trying, as my body permits, but man, cold ramps up my pain levels so much, it's hard to push through.
