Have you tried any other adoptable sites? What do you like/not like about them?

Yes, I do! One is GPXplus, I love the way they've got the lab and shelter set up: The lab you can choose from four pokemon, or if you get the wide lens 5. You get descriptions of the eggs! For example "A grey egg that could easily be mistaken for a rock. It's almost impossible to lift."

The shelter has 2 parts to it, an egg shelter, or one where you can adopt released pokemon. I've gotten a lot of megas, and even a lot of legendaries that way.

The forums seem slower, though you do get a notification that someone's commented on a forum thread. Eggs from the lab and such also don't break shiny chains and you can have several going at once. Donations are much different as well. Rather than a currency, it's points. You donate, and put the points into a certain power. Once that power is filled, there are three days where there's a multiplier on shelter grabs, and all interactions. The first day however, everyone online gets a free mega stone.

You have a lot less storage space there though. I find myself deleting more pokemon I collect--although unlike here, the Pokedex information is kept. I do keep the "lonely" pokemon, I just can seem to let them go. You can't interact with stored pokemon either, so there's no need to worry about them evolving if you don't want them to.

I guess I adore Pokeheroes and GPX for different reasons, but to be honest, Pokeheroes will always have a special place in my heart--I PM'd Riako one year wishing him Merry Christmas, and he messaged me back with a very kind note.

I quite like different adoptable sites and I'm a member of a few. In addition to PokeHeroes, I enjoy Dragon Cave, MagiStream and Tales of Ostlea.
