There are some brand new Pokémon now in the mobile hit Pokémon GO (iOS/Android) for trainers to obtain, as well as a special holiday version of Pikachu starting today.
Pichu and Togepi, both introduced in Pokémon Gold & Silver, can now be hatched from eggs within the game. There are more secrets to discover though, as it seems Cleffa, Igglybuff, Tyrogue (is its evolution Hitmontop available?!), Elekid and Magby can also be hatched from eggs!
Holiday Pikachu can also be evolved into an equally festive Raichu too, so don’t stop training!

Friendship is stoopid magic
Ok, but was it from wondertrade?
It was, he said it was before.
So basically there’s a 95% chance it’s hacked.
not really tbh, im inclined that it was cloned. if it was hacked it would have perfect IVs and lvl 100 and a better moveset.
That’s what they want you to think.
Does G7 even have a cloning glitch that doesn’t risk corrupting the save file?
you can clone
https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonPlaza/comments/5f2ol6/gen_7_powersave_cloning_service/
That sounds more like they’re using the same technology and just producing another one with all the same data rather than using a cloning glitch like G3 had.
Duhhhh do you honestly think I Earthen Tiberius Warrior would give a ratatta’s ass about hunting down a shiny Tsareena
Then who in their right mind would give hard earned shinies for this?
People who don’t think hacking is an issue or people who don’t care if it’s hacked.

I’m not sure what’s weirder, the dancing or the music.
when its day time in moon my eyes are like “This is different”
Oddly I spent more time at night in Sun since they made sunset 6pm, which is a stupid time.
Now I have the alt world so I can have 24/7 sunshine.
@earthen get on and trade me. IGN Kamala
Could I thought you were Ryan
@starstorm Get yo booty online with a Route 1 Caterpie asap

lmao that Caterpie’s nickname
Seriously though, thank you! One of my favorite shinies of this gen omg yay
No problem! I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to help out one of my favorite homies on here.
Aww :3 Thanks so so much. I love tsareena and her shiny im so excited

You son of beech…
Also my Minior was hacked.

Thank you for the ride
I thought that was obvious.
Yea. Totally. But i wanted to explicitly state it.
Nrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Whatever let her have it, I honestly was considering giving it to her (for a modestly overblown price)
I always wanted a Shiny Minior and now I have it,
I love shiny Minior so much. I’m sure I’ll get another one soon enough. haha
That’s so nice. :’)
ITS THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT
Bah Humfairy
I’ve already told you its Buh Humbombee
That’s a mouth turd
I hate Christmas.
Christmas is awful.
D:
I like it, but I’m too busy to get into it this year. :/
I’d like it more if it weren’t so awful.
The only good thing about it is the special episodes of stuff, mainly the soaps where they typically have some awful disaster befalling the street.
But the pretty lights and the snow (depending on where you live) and the presents and foooooood
I remember there being snow maybe one year.
The lights are meh.
I don’t need or want presents.
And most christmas food I don’t like, I’d rather have Spaghetti or Pizza.
Yay, now the people from discord are insulting disqus, saying it’s all clutter.
Really makes me want to join, doesn’t it?
-_-
!! chatango it is
thats literally the opposite though isnt it?
Ironic, huh?
compared to that chunky discord. it is so extra
I’d boycott Discord, but I’ve never touched it in the first place 😀
If I used it, I wouldn’t boycott it, but it really makes me feel welcome over there, if the regulars are insulting my main medium.
please ignore that. the point is. when you say “its better for you, less clutter” that is exactly what discord is for. you can make text channels. a pokemon battle channel can easily be implemented for chat regarding battles. disqus is not clutter. again I’m not forcing the move to discord. i literally cannot force you to be on discord
No, you’re not being like them, you’re fine. I’m not any more opposed to discord than I already was by this lol.
I get that you’re not forcing me, but if somebody from there attacks discord, I
attack backwhine about it to my peeps.the reason i even brought discord up is because, discord is becoming a huge platform for video game chatting online and i thought maybe some people here already use discord but were not aware that poke jungle has a server
Don’t beat yourself up about this. You’re being very respectful about this, but TBH there’s not much you can do. I appreciate the respect though.
ok thank you. i will stop here because i dont have much to say anymore. I’m not trying to bash on disqus i used this as my chat platform when i first started this site. i moved to chatango cuz it was convenient because of quick responding etc. then when i joined discord for non poke jungle related reasons i thought why not give it a try instead of chatango because there are so many bugs to chatango, the biggest being bots
I appriciate that you’re trying to promote it, it’s a good chat, but it’s all up to opinion.
Either way, you’re welcome here anytime. 🙂
i appreciate that. i just want to make it clear there was no intention of an argument and i apologize if it seemed that way. i dont think it was fair to dismiss discord because obviously a regular on disqus will listen to a regular on disqus. i want people to at least give it a chance. and then to post the whole “really makes me want to join” when in the end you agreed with Lugalbanda. now you are dismissing the people who do actually use discord who were regulars on the chatango page and before that regulars here. most of the people carbinkle mentioned on chatango the other day, they are all on discord.
Is it not clutter? I don’t think most of the posts here, including mine, have any relation to the article.
Lol TBH they’re probably right (but it’s ironic because discord is just as much if not more clutter).
Yeah I hear ya fam, those discord ding dongs are the real spammers.
There was an art… oh yeah… oops.
If I were a discord employee, I will definitely insult disqus, reddit, irc and skype…
he meant the regulars to discord poke jungle server. we are not here to make anyone move. activity in the chatango occurred the other day and i didnt think people were aware of the move. that is all there is to it.
Ugh, the last stretch of the dex is such a grind. -_-
How much is the last stretch?
Percentage-wise or numerically will do.
I’m almost 80%. Still pretty far.
Not bad. I’m at 72%.
Which reminds me I still need to catch the Tapus.
Yo yo yo what the hell this Minior has defense EV training? And it’s not even full?
You nipping me holmes
I believe it is 252 HP, 128 Def, 128 SpD. It’s got Shell Smash and White Herb. It don’t need no attack or speed stats
T_T it better run well
I like the way it runs. lol *shrug emoticon*
Nope solid 252 def 252 sp def
Oh cool. I was gonna say… I thought that’s what it was. I guess the last 4 are in HP, Speed, or Atk. Can’t remember.
Well I’m going to test this one on super singles
You can reset the EVs with berries and retrain it with the Pokepelago I think.
Holy crap guys look!!!!!
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d8b09bf43491d9b0ead4e0786516af3ba2998e62e1c451e77c7270453bc91462.jpg
its so Caterpiey
ah a legend in the making
Level 3 is the best! Congratulations!!
Regular pokeball? Try harder.
EV train it and sweep the Battle Tree
So out of curiosity, who here would participate in a shiny Pokemon secret Santa?
Idea by dazzling requiem.
I haven’t even gotten a wild shiny yet what possible chance would I would have finding one just to pawn
It’d have to be after Christmas for time to hunt, maybe New Years.
Then it would be a secret new years.
Also it wouldn’t be secret because of OTs.
It would be secret for a while. 😛
everyone knows what shinies i got tho lol
New plan: you find so many shinies that you are EVERYONE’S secret Santa.
no. no please i love all my shinies im a horder
Agreed.
its hard to give up something i spent hours and days on tbh. i mean ill do duplicates if I can
Try months.
i went 2 years hunting a shiny, kid
😛
Do you have over a box at this point?
no only 11
i mean in my other games included then yes.
I find that hard to believe, didn’t you already get 2 today? I mean, I believe you but wow, I thought you had more.
sun/moon i have 11
Oras/XY idk i gotta count
Hmm, okay. you’ll have a box eventually I’m sure. xD
Same.
(Except I don’t know what shinies you’ve got)
Well yeah but its a secret until after yo get it
True secret gift giving should have the sender forever secret otherwise it defeats the point of the secretness.
That isnt how it works here though soo
That’s not how secret Santa works (at least I’m pretty sure).
I dunno, I’ve never had to do one.
That’s more of an office worker thing and I don’t work in an office.
And if I did I’d probably decline to be involved.
Oh, well the Santa gets revealed after the gift is opened.
Ok but honestly I just want to give Ithsme a shiny Toucannon name actual trash
Recycle
*sigh*
Sorry that was mean
No you’re fine, I’m just getting depressed over my severe inability to get a shiny Pikipek.
screaming
I should have made a bid for that Tsareena and filmed myself releasing it.
If I ever find one, I’m going to punish it for that comment.
I thought we were friends D:
Then be nicer to Toucannons, or I’ll take it out on Tsareenas.
Suppose it wasn’t meant to be
House rules in a secret santa setup, vary. Some reveal the sender in the end (usually, the giver hands it to the target personally at the day of the company party).
Weird. Kinda defeats the point of it being secret. Especially if it’s someone you don’t like.
nah. Is kinda fun tbh, i did one today and it was super fun! one girl actually cried lol
In my case it would be a waste of time for various reasons.
The world would be better off if instead of doing secret santas people took the money they would have spent on each other’s gifts and gave it to a decent charity instead.
yeah, i have to disagree. I think is worth making someone you know and care about feel loved at least once. Secret santa is a good opportunity to to do that. And even if someone you dont like, try the best. you never know what that person is going through anyways so maybe that gift could lift the spirit
It might not be someone they know and care about though since it’s random.
If I ever ended up in a job where the people I was working with were in any way comparable to most of the classes I was in at school there would be at most 4 people in them that I liked and out of those I still wouldn’t know what to buy them.
Besides which it would be a waste of time for me since I’d be almost guaranteed to get something I didn’t want, and I don’t like receiving gifts in the first place.
If it’s someone don’t like then sorry, it’s the luck of the draw.
Also, they still have to adhere to wishlist, and it’d be bad form not to just civilly give a gift just to get it over with.
It’d be better to just not participate.
Or rig the draw somehow.
Or swap with someone.
Well as a scrooge I’d rather buy my own gifts, but I do observe how those things work at my office…
And of course, jerks probably need not apply to those activities, heh heh he.
(i bought myself a gift and it literally came when we were doing secret santa witht the others, the gag was my gift i bought myself was 3x more expensive than the ones i bought for my friends)
Our wishlist-based secret santas in the office require a minimum gift value though.
But if i were participating I would just buy something as close to the minimum allowed value. :p
Same, especially if I ended up getting something they didn’t want.
yep our mininum value was 30 bucks
Tbh people would be better off buying themselves a gift, they’re more likely to get something they want.
Dang it Pharap its the thought that counts… and materialism but also the thought
But if it’s random there may not be any thought behind it, it might be two people who never talk having to give each other gifts and just buying any old crap to save face.
i mean it would be secret till the day of the official gift exchange
If we started it right now we could probably have time to do it?
Ye
I’d consider it if I got over my “I don’t like giving my name out” syndrome. And if it didn’t feature the word ‘Santa’.
And I only have two shinies so it would be kind of obvious.
The sooner you conquer the fear, the sooner you can have fun battling us!
It’s not a fear, it’s a mistrust thing.
That and I know what GCHQ are like for tracking people.
GCHQ?
A place I nearly got an internship at. Basically they spy on the public and occaisionally catch terrorists.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_Communications_Headquarters
I think the American equivalent is the NSA or something.
That’s pretty cool. That sucks that you didn’t get the internship. 🙁
I didn’t apply, it was more of an apprenticeship thing and it was being taught at a level lower than that which I’m qualified for.
Oh, alright then.
It’s annoying because I would have liked to have been involved, but it seemed kind of redundant to go there and learn stuff below what I already knew and still not be guaranteed a job.
i should be studying for finals tbh
I have a full week before those. As a licensed procrastinater, I’ll wait at least 6 days.
mine starts tomorrow:p
Good luck to you, I hope you do well!
Screw that
I have to raise my grade from an 87 to a 90 in a week so I should be studying for some quizzes but instead I’m watching youtube like an idiot which is also probably why I dropped 6 points in French in one weekend so uh…. yeah I’m going downhill fast help
Ugh, I might get a B- for the first time in my life.
lol I graduated from college with a GPA equivalent to a B- average.
gpa rn is 3.70, i want it to be 3.75 but literally you can get as many A as you want and it will barely rse but if you get a B i will go down like a boulder
I have a 4.215
is it posible to be over 4.0 😮
Some high schools weight honors classes higher
Yup.
Yeah my school can go to 4.5
wild
It’s worse. My parents are pressuring me to get above a 4.0 now, even though that means getting A+’s in honors courses.
even more wild
xD
My parents never really cared when I did well so I gave up and decided to be mediocre instead. The education system here doesn’t reward intelligence anyway, it rewards good memory and being able to word things exactly how the system wants them worded.
GPA doesn’t determine one’s success so I could care less. All those statistics talking about graduates with higher GPA’s making higher salaries always fail to note that that’s because often times those who are able to push themselves to achieve the arbitrary goals society gives are also able to motivate themselves to achieve their career goals. I intend to be the guy who had a shotty GPA but is still more than capable of achieving his career goals.
Cs get degrees!
Precisely.
yeah, the thing is i need my gpa high so i can still keep my scholarship lol
I had a rich benefactor
The worst I’ve gotten was a C and I was able to get one of those to a B and another to an A so yeah. Both times though I had horrible teachers. Like seriously, I despise math unless I have a cool teacher getting me through it
My geometry teacher assigns homework on Sunday evenings, when I don’t have the materials or time to complete it.
Your American education system really confuses me, I have no clue what any of this crap means.
Same goes for your education system, all of it really confuses me. TBH it should just be standard across the world.
What country are you in? It cant be too different
The UK.
Believe me, it’s very different.
We don’t use grade point averages at all. I don’t even know what a grade point average is. We have letter grades but there’s no + or – and they’re probably not even equivalent.
We don’t have high school and middle school, we have primary school (4-10/11) and secondary school (10/11-15/16), then college, which varies, and possibly uni.
And then there’s different exam boards, and UCAS points, and it gets really weird and complicated.
Thought this was cool 🙂 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3581cd99aa4d181a946ff7b6521fb87cd324a3e309e8f5bff2a71c8b66208cba.png
I dont car for Au’s but this is one I can get behind
CARE* JEEZ I CANT USE A KEYBOARD APARENTLY
AWWWWWWWWWWWH
Get in the bag Nebby!
If only (Not really,but that looks really cool.)
Well I think I should get some rest
I have 7 hour workdays all across the board…..hoorah……-_-
Just spend the time thinking about punching things.
I do that all the time
Maybe I’ll mentally write that story, or some erotica whichever comes first
I have 9 hours of school tomorrow. 😛
i work 17 hours just wendesday to friday while in finals works. i will die, but im excited because money
I hate the way my schedule works. Some people I hear about having 4 or 5 classes per semester, but somehow I have a whopping 10 classes to deal with.
I have no idea how the American education system works so I have no idea what that translates into.
Some high schools have block scheduling. 4 classes a day. But you have an “A” day with one set of classes and a “B” day another set. And you go back and forth. Some see this as prep for college which is how all the universities schedule classes. Some high schools are set up like grade schools where you have all your 7-8 classes in one day, everyday.
I’m assuming Ithme’s additional 2 classes are electives that switch off every other day.
Yeah, they are. The other 8 are daily.
No clue what grade school or electives are…
How long is a ‘class’?
Here it really varies. In secondary school classes were an hour long unless you had them back to back, every day had a different set of classes and it alternated every week between two different arrangements (week 1, week 2, week 1, week 2 etc).
In College it was entirely dependent on what course you were doing, they would have two groups running at different times and you’d be assigned to whatever fit better. The times and days of lessons tended to be quite varied. E.g. Thursday might have 3 lessons, Wednesday could have none, and Tuesday could have 1, a 4 hour gap, and then another. But at least it would be the same times every week unless the teacher had a meeting or something and had to shift the time along by anything up to half an hour, or cancel the lesson completely if no substitute were available (without any reimbursement to the students).
Yea I realized after the fact that not all my terminology was going to translate.
Grade school is a more generic term for all grade levels 1st through 8th. Which is roughly ages 7 through 14. Electives are classes you choose to take from a list of available classes. They can range from theater to business.
In block scheduling classes are typically an hour and a half. In non-block it’s about 45 minutes.
Very different to our system.
Can’t remember what classes were like in primary school but they must have been either an hour or half an hour.
Primary school has ‘early years’ which is the introductory year and is very simple (at about age 4) then Year 1 and Year 2 (which are both in Key Stage 1), then Year 3, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6 (which are in Key Stage 2).
Then secondary school goes from Year 7 to Year 11 (not sure how the key stages work there). You don’t get to pick any of the stuff you do until Year 9 where you have several choices:
-The choice of doing just one language or doing both* (see footnote).
-The choice of doing full time Religious Studies or Religious Studies alongside Geography or alongside History. No, there is no avoiding Religious Studies, you have to do them whether you want to or not. (I chose Geography and the waste of time that was Religious studies.)
-If you’re in top set maths whether you want to stay in top set and be made to do an after school lesson at least once a week or if you want to move to set 2 so you don’t have to stay behind. (I chose to drop to set 2, I never liked maths back then despite being good at it.)
-About two other subjects you specifically want to do, with a few restrictions on which combinations of subjects you can pick. I did triple science (all the sciences at a higher level than you would otherwise) and DiDA (Diploma in Digital Applications).
It’s only when you reach college you get to pick everything you want to do unhindered. And there’s also Sixth Form that some schools have but I don’t know quite how that works. It’s sort of somewhere between Secondary and College. Again, all classes are in hour-long blocks in both of those (I think – it has been a while).
footnote: *unless you’re me and you tell the teachers you want to focus on one and they force you to do both because aparently you’re good at them and they care more about making themselves look good than they do about what you actually want to do.
you would college then. you can pick how many classes you have (usually 4 is the common one)
Sounds like a cakewalk.
yep, you can even choose online classes and not even go to a classroom
-_____________________________-
is so nice lol, college is fun
Can’t wait lol
Just make sure your ready for it. While in general you’ll spend a lot time less in the class room, your expected to spend just as much time outside of class working as you do inside, though it varies based on what your going into.
When I was in college, unless we had coursework nobody ever did do any work outside class.
Really depends on the class. Some classes I barely spent any time doing work outside of class, where others I had to spend a lot of time working. Some highlights being my internship(about 200-300 hours), my studies(ranging from about 20-50 hours of work), and my thesis which is still probably the best paper I’ve ever written which took about 40 hours between the research before factoring in Course lectures that were applied to it.
The only things I did research on when we didn’t have coursework (i.e. graded homework) to do was programming and 3D modelling, but only because I geniunely enjoyed them.
And maybe once or twice when the teacher was terrible at explaining stuff or didn’t explain stuff.
I had a teacher who didn’t actually teach us anything after the first lesson, they just sat there in the corner on their computer and told us to work on the coursework and use the internet if we needed any help.
And another teacher was really scatter brained and clueless. She gave me a lowish mark, asked me to change something, I handed it back to her completely unchanged and she suddenly upped the grade as if it had magically changed.
Welp my Minior test run on super singles was shot down by a doppelgänger strategy with Barbracle who cheated by adding Double Team in the mix and seven handily kill me
I must retire to the heavily padded sleeping platform in my personal cube. Have a delightful late time of day my dear companions.
Good night!??
Farewell, festive fowl!
GLaDOS will arrive in the morning to put you through the next test.
Anyone else still up waiting for corocoro to leak
Hope to see movie news and marshadow
It probably won’t appear for quite a while
Hope to see movie news and marshadow news just so close I can feel it
I’d completely forgotten corocoro was a thing.
Film news is meh but Marshadow would be good to know about.
Minior’s Moon Dex entry made me feel a bit sad for it.
Butterfree is the only Pokemon in SM that has Compound Eyes…
I’m annoyed.
Pharap, which Pokémon is your favorite of all time?
I cannot pick a single true favourite, instead I have a collection of Pokemon I like equally.
Including (but not limited to):
-Scizor
-Galvantula
-Flygon
-Crobat
-Komala
-Lurantis
-Trevenant
-Aromatisse
-Mewtwo
-Bouffalant
-Jellicent (male)
-Skitty
(and the list goes on)
I have a favorite of all time: Sableye. But, I do like a lot of the ones on your list. Scizor(my favorite shiny), Mewtwo, Komola, Trevenant, Crobat, and Skitty.
I forgot about Sableye.
Put Sableye on my list too.
Woot!
While I think of it, when I first saw Bouffalant I was hoping it would be an evolution for Tauros. I think they wasted an opportunity there.
I’m glad that Bouffalant wasn’t an evolution of Tauros. I like that they added Bouffalant, but I’d love to see it, tauros, and Miltank get pre-evos and maybe a mega or third evo.
I’d rather Tauros and Miltank can breed and produce both Tauros and Miltank, similar with Volbeat and Illumise.
I want a baby tauros, dammit! XD
Level 1 Tauros? 🙁
:*(
People have already put thought into this:

A minotaur mega, eh? Like.
BABY TAUROS!
Taurus is my zodiac sign soooo I am a bit biased about tauros. Lol
Yeah, It’s kind of weird when they have Pokemon that are clearly related but do nothing with them. The Hitmon-trio getting Tyrogue was a good move, they need more like that.
Mhm. I would like to see a Sinnoh 2.0 type of deal to some pokemon.
Yeah, Sinnoh produced some of the best evolutions and prevos.
Roserade (add that to my list), Budew, Froslass, Mamoswine, Tangrowth (if it weren’t for Tangrowth, nobody would use Tangela), Gallade etc
I LOVE Roserade(shiny, too), Tangela is actually my gen 1 favorite (tied with the abra line). Lol Tangrowth is cute.
Abra huh…
