Alola Festival!

[Lamont]

Get your vacation hat on and prepare for some island fun! That's right it's finally here: the Alola Festival! Grab all your savings and head over to see the wide range of activities, pokémon, and items available during this event! Of course the starters and other favorites take a star seat over multiple activities, but there's a little something for everyone.

For those that are familiar with past events you'll be happy to see the return of some favorites. Such as Commander Badass with a selection of Alolan pokémon for sale based on your progress; the Battle Bazaar stocked full of great items to give your team the edge in fights; the Lottery Stand, Black Market, & Generational Move Tutors; and the fun little Gacha Machines all setup to take your well earned money. The Gem Stand & Delicatessen also return but under the management of new Alola representatives. And for those that like to gamble you'll love the Alolan twist on the all too familiar Gogoat Races -- Mudsdale Races! Last but not least we have an all new tent that feature exotic variants of well known pokémon: Alolan Wonders. Make sure to check that out and see what they have available for trade!

Now, all this can get a little expensive and for those newer members who haven't gotten the chance to build up large vats of wealth we don't want you to miss out. So! You'll definitely want to go say hello to the friendly Hau who may be able to help you out. Hau is also available for older members, but don't expect the same gift should you defeat him.

But there's also something else... a different kind of presence lurking about the tents and slinking around. It's a strangely colored Meowth decked out in strange attire. He's offering beanies to all sorts of trainers that catch his eye and giving them instructions regarding shining bottle caps that have been left randomly all over the place. Perhaps you should pick them up and investigate? You'll find more information by clicking on the new addition to your mini-profile.


If the fervor of shopping doesn't quite strike your fancy, there is also the chance to roleplay with other members at the festival in the universal group thread or in your own groups.

The additions don't stop there. As we're bringing in Alola and Gen VII to the forum a number of existing areas will be upgraded to reflect this. We can't list them all but keep your eye out as you look over old locations and guides as there are sure to be new additions. Keep your eyes peeled ladies and gentlemen! If you feel there is a definite oversight, as always, be sure to post it in member suggestions.

See you there! Don't dawdle either, this festival lasts until the end of June!
