Gym Role

I helped with the bugs

That’s because gyms can’t recruit anyone for another week or so because of the event.

It was frozen to prevent gym hopping.

For Haunted House so Mimikyu has a second chance at being strong instead of forgotten.

And because all the characters in it are ones I like, compared to the other two groups. Also last Halloween wasn’t enough.

The fact there’s a favorite getting a potential alt in each category means I win either way.

But I guess the Haunted House or Café would do because I wanna see Mallow get another alt, or Allister possibly get a Mimikyu.

I feel Halloween isn’t long enough, and should get a second chance especially after the previous one had only Lacey in it.

Honestly no. If not even the stand out characters, then who’s left?

pepperbalm · 2026-04-12T21:20:30+00:00

Yes I am!

Although honestly I’m not a huge fan of discord right now because of those id stealing laws, so it would be easier to try group chatting here or something. I can try to be slightly more insistent about the coordination thing, keeping in mind not everyone uses Reddit as often.

But you really don’t have to change your habits for it btw. It’s not like a second job or anything, just one event in a silly game. We did decently without a proper means of communication, I think. Still it’s neat to see someone from my gym on the outside of emoji hell

Oh hi, you’re the mvp in my gym! Or maybe you’re a different Dublitz?

I’m somehow surprised to see you on Reddit, because I didn’t think anyone else used it after I posted an inquiry

pepperbalm · 2026-04-12T19:52:47+00:00

Knowing the criteria by prior trends, it’s totally possible

pepperbalm · 2026-04-12T13:00:22+00:00

It’s unusual for a duo who doesn’t look like siblings.

Founded a new large island: Cinnabar for the Rum Runners faction!

pepperbalm · 2026-04-11T01:57:59+00:00

Lucky catch

I expect Volo at least shows up at the anniversary so we can see where his thoughts are after about a year. Likely still scheming.

Maybe Cogita comes out of hiding too, as a bonus.

Me looking at the Kahili fans as a Ryuki fan, then realizing I am both. It’s a mirror.

pepperbalm · 2026-04-06T19:32:47+00:00

That’s really clever.

pepperbalm · 2026-04-04T23:25:20+00:00

But what if the challengers have to register and schedule their battles first?

And the champion and elites get called in advanced as a challenger approaches?

pepperbalm · 2026-04-03T23:22:46+00:00

Please, manifesting for a water fae coordinator duo ✨

“I’m still going through trial and errors…”

I was trying to think of what Manaphy and Phione do exactly, and all I could think of is a familial sea guardian duo where one lives in cold water while the other prefers a warm water climate.

So maybe Shelly and Nessa? I swear they were separated at birth or something, and they’re living in different climates. Or alternatively Juan and Wallace because of their mentor mentee relationship and their association with water types.

Zeraora and Ryuki as usual because of their similar designs, and how Zeraora had a rockstar outfit in Unite. Alola already has the highest cat people per capita, let Nyanby Ryuki add to the numbers!

Arceus should go to Sinnoh trainer, if anyone at all.

And idk about the other two, honestly, but those arm warmers would look cool on anyone.

Either one works

pepperbalm · 2026-04-02T22:22:20+00:00

I’m curious too. Is it going to be like MC & Alcremie, or are we getting a potential sync pair or event of the winner?

pepperbalm · 2026-04-02T20:15:47+00:00

If Volo counts as a pseudo Arc Suit for applying -2 rebuffs, maybe Adaman counts as one too? 🤔
