If you don't have at least one Articuno named Sharticuno then you need to uninstall the app. I'm sorry.

I name all my shinies "Sh[some portion of the real name]". Can't decide whether to keep Sharon or evolve into Shagron..

You can just type “shiny” in the search bar And it will show all your shinies, no matter what you named them.

That Chrales guy uncovered some info - Halloween tasks, avatar items, and a 3 stage non-mythical special research quest for Spiritomb that will involve catching 108 pokemon.

No word on when it all starts, I would like to guess today considering Mewtwo is getting replaced this afternoon, but I doubt it as we haven't received an official announcement yet.

Oh yeah, I know. This is more for coming up with nicknames than just for having a way to find them..

That's pretty awesome.

On the other hand, they missed a golden opportunity to get really dark and require you to transfer 108 Pokemon, given the implications of transferring...

Trade on Bidoof (for a Bidoof), and of course bam! Lucky Pokémon.

It specifies catch candy only though, right? I had hoped it would also be double transfer candies so I could cut down everything I have saved in my storage.

Be warned, a witch hat Pikachu is on my radar

Also it is double candy for everything, even though I used a pineap to catch a murkrow for 12 candy it didn't count towards my 108 berries

Mewtwo has its legacy moveset back so if you want Shadow Ball, use some TMs now in case it’s a mistake.

Only had 1 charge TM left.

Used it on my best Mewtwo from the last month.

Didn't get lucky and ended with Flamethrower instead.

How good is Shadow Ball on Mewtwo? Worth teaching it to as many as possible, or just a couple to round out a team?
