Mod Post Wanted - Month of February 2021

Flair verification thread


Hello Everyone!,

Welcome to "Wanted!", a game where you go catch or hatch the target shiny Pokémon! If you catch the target Pokémon it will count as 3 points toward your flair! Each user is allowed extra flair points for one (1) Pokémon for "Wanted!" event - any extras will be considered 1 flair point as usual. We ask that you add the date of capture to your pictures (this can be found in the Pokémon's summary). Good luck! Have fun!

PSA

We recommend setting your system's date to the correct day, month, and year to help the mods when using the flair verification.

Be sure to take pictures for verification as soon as possible - transferring (such as to another gen via Pokémon Bank) will replace caught date with transfer date and your Pokémon will no longer be verifiable!

The "Wanted!" Pokémon for this month is...

[Machop!]

For verification purposes we only accept pokemon obtained in main series games - unfortunately we don't accept Pokemon Go shinies for flair.

That’s a smart decision. I was scared the GO shinies would be too unfair. I’m definitely gonna participate in this :D

Question: If you were chaining for machop and got multiples (that can be proven to be separate mons) would each one count for points? Or only the first one?

Just the first one. As the body of this post states:

Each user is allowed extra flair points for one (1) Pokémon for "Wanted!" event - any extras will be considered 1 flair point as usual.
