Shaymin and its friends (2022)

It's finally Summer Time! The summer holidays has long begun for all trainer students of Emera Town and everyone is excited for the beach parties and festivals at the Emera Square. Many people are especially excited about the Fun Fair coming to town for the very first time this year! Only a few days left...

As you all know, there is one Pokémon that especially enjoys the sun and all the flowers of summer:

Shaymin is finally back!
I bet many of you have been waiting for our special Summer Event: The legendary Pokémon, Shaymin, visits Emera Town for the rest of the summer and presents kind-hearted trainers very special gifts.
Shaymin likes seeing trainers interacting with as much Pokémon as possible. So take your berries, warm up your hands and get started!

Meeting Shaymin
The requirement to meet Shaymin is very simple: Interact. Interact a lot!
There is no set interaction requirement - it appears randomly. Maybe after 100 interactions, maybe after 1,000 interactions - or, if you're pretty unlucky, maybe after 100,000 interactions.
When Shaymin wants to meet you, a small icon pops up in your Userbar:
You can't miss it. Shaymin stays there until you claim its gift.
Notice: It's not possible to have multiple Shaymin in your Userbar at the same time. You have to accept Shaymins gift in order to meet it again.

Shaymin's Gift
This year, Shaymin will give you the choice between four different gifts:
A legendary Shaymin Egg, a Gracidea Flower (Forme-change item for Shaymin), a Shaymin Plushie (which has a 20% of being shiny) and a rare Event Pokémon Egg! The decision is up to you!



Increase Shaymin's shiny chance
Starting from this year, you can actively increase the odds of receiving a Shiny Shaymin egg by first accepting Shaymin Plushies as the gift you receive. Every time you claim the plushie gift, the shiny chance for the next Shaymin egg you'll claim increases. Your current shiny chance is always displayed below the Shaymin egg option on the event page.
As soon as you claim a Shaymin egg, however, the chance resets back to normal and you'll have to "shiny chain" the plushies again. So it might be advisable to stay patient until the odds are high enough!
And if you are superduper patient and want to reach a 100% shiny chance, then there's good news: The shiny odds are carried over to the next year, so you can continue to raise it year by year - however long it will take you.

Accepting a Shaysola egg or a Gracidea Flower has no effects on this. It neither increases nor resets the shiny chance.

Sky Gifts
The Sky Gifts are also back!
You can start sending out Skygifts to your friends here.
Three gifts can be bought with a small amount of Pokedollar every day; any further gift costs a fixed amount of 10 Nuggets.

Shaymin stays until September 25th, 2022.

Finally, a chance to get another cool Pokemon!

---

Expand the shaymin army!

Very excited for this event ^^

Anyone have the shaymin appearence chances?

Do we have a send the user above you a sky gift or anything similar to that?

---

Ohh.. Feeding berries and getting Shaymin plushies have additional purposes now?

So awesome! 😳

---

@Lychee1123 - no - you do not have to send the user above you a Sky Gift. You can send them to anyone you wish. The first 3 are paid for with PD and after that with nuggets

@Ravenswing I mean something to help people send and receive gift, like plushies and I believe Christmas gifts at some point, but thanks for trying to help

---

Ohhhh increased shiny chance? Yes please!

Woohoo I was hoping I'd get to enjoy this event!! I love Shaymin!💖

---

A way to do a PM with items, very nice!

---

Does luck actually have to do with anything though?

---

I love the fact that the shiny odd is carrying over! time to stack plushies ^-^

Does shaymin break my chain?
