Vuldoom. It feels like a super popular and overrated Pokémon somehow - maybe that's just me. But for me it is extremely special. I played this game offline, without an account here, in 2010, when I was 12 years old. I adopted eggs and put them in a forum where some people would help me to hatch them. When I adopted eggs, I saw Vuldoom on the front page and was absolutely in love with it. Eventually someone explained it to me, that I can just copy and past it to have it on my profile too, it was, I'd guess, stefanol's Vuldoom, when he would post it to get people to take part of the Halloween contest. :3 I was sooo proud to "have" that little fella, because for me, having it on my profile was equal to owning it myself. Making new accounts at different websites was scary, but I eventually found the courage to finally create an account here and was determind to get my hands to my VERY OWN Vuldoom. It took me forever, I think, 7 years? To finally get one with the promo star, not the second star. It was very important for me that it is original. It felt like a dream come true when it finally happen and I still can't believe it. <3
Lycanroc.
Oh, I remember how much I hated th Night Form when it was announced. It's ugly. Day form so much better. Don't like it. Why.
Weeell. I can't even explain why it suddenly became my top tier one absolute favourite Pokémon of all time. It just.. happend. But it happend before in my life, that I disliked something and ended up loving it. Like Aphelios, a character, that he is named after. I hated him so much at the beginning, but he ended up becoming my biggest comfort character. It's special. My shiny Lycanroc is named after his sister, Alune. It just matches perfectly, I'm happy to have a boy and a girl. ^w^
Wolves are my favourite animals, I love the night, red was my first favourite color, I love feral designs and fluffy, edgy Pokémon. I mean, Lucario was (and still is) one of my favourite Pokémon. Delphox, Salazzle, Zoroark. Welp. I'm a furry. Ehehe. I guess, that's one big reason why I love it so much.
Anyway- I got sooo excited when Alola was finally out and I could have my absolute favourite baby on my favourite Pokémon browser game. He really means a lot to me. :3
Shiny Lycanroc. Well. Obvious.
Blue Shinies are my absolute favorites and Lycanroc is my favourite Pokémon. I never bred a shiny before, I wasn't very lucky and barely had any money for breeding. But I wanted it so badly. It stinged and ached so badly when I saw other people getting it from random eggs and I thought, I'd never have a chance to get one with my OT, I wouldn't want one with someone elses OT. I got an egg from the daycare before I had to sleep and tossed it in the CE. It was always the first thing that I did when I'd wake up - checking Virtuadopt. Usually I need super long to wake up and I'm a very sleepy person. But when I saw my little Shiny Rockruff girl in my box, I couldn't believe my eyes, I just gasped and yelled and woke my flatmate up. I can not put into words how happy I was in this moment, and I still can't believe this happend to me. I expected I'd need years to maaaybe get it, but here she is. I love her sooo, so much. <3
Shiny Blossom Deino.
Gosh. I wanted this promo so, so badly, I was so desperated, that I couldn't get or have it, most people with just an insane amout of money had a chance to get it. Spoiler - not me. Well. The event was just about to end and I was talking with someone in the DMs about it and gushed over it and we both tried to get it. Well, they eventually got it, and I was jealous, but also happy for them and thought they very much deserve it. But then they send me the ID and VA code for it and I just..?? IDK!! ;w; I'm STILL not over it, and that was in 2014. I'M SO SHY! And still so happy! This will never be forgotten. Thank you so incredibly much, Ryou_Kimura, for your kindness. I'll keep this bab forever and give them lots of love, cuddles and smoochies, I promise. What a beautiful promo. Blossom Deino inspired me to become a dragon collector, btw! My absolute favorite type together with fire.
Shiny Noibat.
I'm still very mad at myself that I traded the one with my OT away, but I got another one at some point. I forgot what I traded for it. It has Jore's OT.
I transfered it, because it's my favourite bat Pokémon and one of my favourite dragons. Bats are also the favorite animals of my girlfriend and they love Shiny Noibat very much. x3 I just hope, maybe, one day, I can have one with my OT again. But for now... lots of love for her. c:
Shiny Giratina.
I wish I still knew what I traded for you, but all I remember is, that it was my left kidney. Haha.
Giratina is one of my absolute favourite Legendary Pokémon, and it's shiny is just... sooo frickin' cool. As a dragon collector, this was a must have for me. Someone posted one for trade in the GTS and I just tossed everything I could find into that trade and discussed more things in the DMs with them. I eventually got it and I'm happy. x3
Dusk Lycanroc.
Not my favourite form, but it feels somehow special to have a original one from old VA, because the Night form is my favourite. I also like his name. Orange juice wolf. Heh. Cutie!
I remember how I've spend days with someone on this website to figure out how to evolve it into this form and it literally took us so long, probably two weeks? I felt sorry for her, because it is her favourite form, but at the same hand it was so much fun to talk about it so much and tried plenty different things out - the most weird, must-be-impossible methods. I loved it. This is a nice memory of it!
Shiny Cookie Vaporeon and
Shiny Pirate Vaporeon.
After Lycanroc, Vaporeon is my second most favourite Pokémon. I got so excited when it got a monthly, it's so cute, I love pirate Vaporeon very much. I didn't activly played when Cookie Vaporeon came out, but a kind player traded me one. x3 Thank you, Jore!
Looking at Vaporeon just sparks happiness in me! And I just need everything Vaporeon related. >:3
Vampoochy.
Ah, what an adorable little fella. I don't know what I traded for it. I think it was Shiny Puffy (The Meloetta/Jigglypuff Contest Promo). But not sure!
I just have a weakness for halloween promos, what a baby. ^w^
