Mystery Gift Floor

To make sure that this doesn't become "MG Please" spam, you MUST answer a daily question posted by an employee to request a Mystery Gift. There will be a question posted for each day; however, it may not be on the correct day (at least, for your time zone). You can answer any or all of the 3 latest polls (as long as you haven't already answered them). All prizes that say "Stamps/CCPs" let you choose from one of the currencies to receive your money in.

Anyone is allowed to post the poll of the day (as long as no one else has posted a poll on the same day, that is). The person who gets to post the poll of the day will be entitled to an extra Mystery Gift.

You will get a random Mystery Gift from the following list:

Common Items:
Hollow Stone, Red MGcoin, Lunar Gem, 1 Stamp/CCP, Solar Gem

Uncommon Items:
Division Gem, Ocean Gem, 2 Stamps/CCPs, Spark Gem, Photosynthesis Gem, Flame Gem, Blue MGcoin, Berry

Rare Items:
Darkness Gem, Light Gem, Rainbow Gem, Circle Gem, 10 Stamps/CCPs, Green MGcoin, Gold Berry, Sitrus Berry

Super Rare Items:
20 Stamps/CCPs, Mystery Box, 2 Green MGcoins, Miracle Berry

If you receive the Mystery Box, you receive 1 Stamp, 1 CCP, 1 Red MGcoin, a common/uncommon item of your choice, and a free MG. You must post after receiving the Mystery Box to get the item and to have us give you your MG.

The Games Floor

To play the games, you need an MGcoin. Each game costs one credit worth of MGcoins; Red MGcoins are worth one credit, Blue MGcoins are worth two, and Green MGcoins are worth three. You get proper change back for using Blue or Green MGcoins. MGcoins can be obtained through Mystery Gifts or playing these games. Also, you can buy a Red MGcoin for one Stamp/CCP, but ONLY if you have none.

The Grabber Game

Remember those irritating claw robots at fairgrounds? In this version you pilot one over a 6X6 grid. You give directions starting from bottom left. Pick a square by going over one to five squares and up one to five squares. The better prizes are farther away, but you have a higher chance of dropping them.

There's a chance of getting a collectible Unown Pokédoll instead of a regular prize from the Grabber Game. There are 19 kinds of dolls (some are rarer than others). You can either collect them or exchange them for shields: if you get 3 pokédolls that correspond to the first 3 letters of a pokemon type, you can exchange them for an elemental shield of that type. There's also a small chance of getting a Stat Modification Die.

Each day, you may use the Grabber Game and Scratchcards up to 10 times COMBINED. You may split the uses however you want.

Guess THIS!

An employee will think of a Pokemon, and give you a clue that should be unique to that Pokemon. You then have one try to guess the Pokemon. If you win, you get your choice of common/uncommon Mystery Gift prizes. If you guess wrongly, you won't get your Red MGcoin back like before.

You may only ask for one Guess This per day.

Scratchcard

Just like the lotto, you can come here and scratch off for a prize. Pick a card from the lists below, and scratch off three numbers (from one to ten). There will be three randomly decided winning squares, and an employee will tell you what your scratchcards revealed, and whether you won anything.

Group 1 Scratchcards
Choose from 2 Stamps, 2 CCPs, Hollow Stone, Lunar Gem, Solar Gem, Photosynthesis Gem, Flame Gem, Ocean Gem, Spark Gem, Division Gem.

Prizes:
1 winning square: Red MGcoin
2 winning squares: One of the indicated item
3 winning squares: Two of the indicated item

Group 2 Scratchcards:
Choose from 5 Stamps, 5 CCPs, Rainbow Gem, Green MGcoin, Darkness Gem AND Light Gem

Prizes:
1 winning square: Red MGcoin
2 winning squares: Blue MGcoin
3 winning squares: One of the indicated item

Each day, you may use the Grabber Game and Scratchcards up 10 times COMBINED. You may split the uses however you want.

Mystery Pokemon

In this game, you are given a list of 14 different Pokemon. Your goal is to figure out which one is the "Mystery Pokemon" that is randomly chosen from the list at the beginning of the game. To narrow the possibilities, you may ask up to four questions (one at a time) that can be answered by an employee with a "yes" or a "no". In addition to these questions, you get one attempt to guess the correct Pokemon. After this guess, regardless of how many questions you asked, you will receive your prize.

Correct answer after 2 or fewer questions: Any Mystery Gift item except for 20 stamps/CCPs.
Correct answer after 3 questions: 5 stamps/CCPs or any rare, uncommon, or common Mystery Gift item except 10 stamps/CCPs.
Correct answer after 4 questions: Any common or uncommon Mystery Gift item.

Note: if you ask whether the MP is a certain pokemon, it counts as a guess if it is, and as a question if it isn't.

Update: as of October 27th, 2013, you can request a game of Mystery Pokemon with or without X/Y pokemon.

Fishing Game

The aim of the game is to fish a prize out of a 4 by 4 grid with coordinates ranging from A-1 to D-4. You must post the desired coordinate(s), and a worker will tell you what you got (and maybe even show you the grid afterwards if he/she feels like it).

Each grid will have 1 empty space, 5 common items, 4 uncommon items, 3 rare items, 2 super rare items, and 1 specific enhancer. Stat Modification Dice are counted as super rare items in this game.

You may choose up to 3 coordinates a day for the prize of 1 MGcoin each. Whether you choose them all at once or one at a time is up to you (choosing one at a time might get you more than one specific enhancer, but it might also get you more than one empty space, which cannot happen if you choose all the coordinates at once).

EMT

You can request up to 2 EMTs each month, for the price of 3 MGCredits each. You will get a random TM each time.

EMT Game

This Game is free and everyone can take part easily in a guessing game. It will take place ONCE A WEEK. A Worker will use the EMT but not tell you what TM popped out. You'll need to guess what TM popped out of the EMT and if you do you get to keep that TM. Clues will help you decide what TM popped out of the EMT and the Worker who's doing the EMT Game will give one clue a day. Everyone gets one guess a day after the Worker has posted the update for that day. This means you could have the chance of getting more TMs from the EMT if you're good at this game.

The worker who hosts the game will use a form like this one on the first day, and fill in one line of the form each day until the move is guessed or the form is full, whatever comes first.

[classy_cat18]

What an unexpected surprise...I didn't think two MP games this week would share the exact same Pokemon for their correct answers...

I know, it's really wacky. Now about those scratchcards I asked for. Nine of them (9,6,3) for Green MGCoins.

[Knight of Time]

Sorry about that Shonta; I didn't mean to overlook them there.

Your SCs netted you 2 Blue MGCoins and 7 Red MGCoins.

[classy_cat18]

Cool. Now for a game of Mystery Pokemon with BW. *pays*

[Knight of Time]

Shonta: Raikou, Shroomish, Phanpy, Totodile, Luxray, Ho-oh, Absol, Scyther, Umbreon, Granbull, Gastly, Weepinbell, Shuppet, Espeon

Speaking of MP games, I'm curious to ask if I did get the Blue MGCoin from the previous MP game you gave me, Shonta? I'm presuming I do have it now...in the meantime, I'd like another MP game with B/W as well, please.

[classy_cat18]

I didn't tell you in the last thread? Dang. You did get the coin. New MP: Mightyena, Geodude, Golett, Illumise, Cobalion, Piplup, Munchlax, Ducklett, Mantyke, Druddigon, Weedle, Terrakion, Gastrodon, Chandelure

*looks at MP* No B/W in mine? Weird...

My MP: Raikou, Shroomish, Phanpy, Totodile, Luxray, Ho-oh, Absol, Scyther, Umbreon, Granbull, Gastly, Weepinbell, Shuppet, Espeon
Question #1: Did the Pokemon debut in G/S?

[Knight of Time]

I guess I clicked the other button (MP without B/W) by accident (didn't mean for that to happen, sorry; sometimes the unexpected happens), that's all I can think of...unless there's the extremely rare chance of no B/W Pokemon appearing when you hit the upper button.

Shonta: No it didn't.

My MP: Mightyena, Geodude, Golett, Illumise, Cobalion, Piplup, Munchlax, Ducklett, Mantyke, Druddigon, Weedle, Terrakion, Gastrodon, Chandelure

Question 1: Can the MP evolve?

[classy_cat18]

Yes, it can.

My MP: Shroomish, Luxray, Absol, Scyther, Gastly, Weepinbell, Shuppet
Question #2: Did the Pokemon debut in R/S?

[Knight of Time]

No it didn't.

My MP: Geodude, Golett, Piplup, Munchlax, Ducklett, Mantyke, Weedle

Question 2: Is the MP a Water type?

[classy_cat18]

No, it's not.

My MP: Luxray, Scyther, Gastly, Weepinbell
Question #3: Is the Pokemon a Poison type?

[Knight of Time]

Yes it is.

My MP: Geodude, Golett, Munchlax, Weedle

Question 3: Is the MP a Ground type?

[classy_cat18]

No, it's not.

My MP: Gastly, Weepinbell
Question #4/Guess: Is the Mystery Pokemon Weepinbell?

[Knight of Time]

Good guess, it is! Pick your prize.

My MP: Munchlax, Weedle

Question 4/Guess: Is the MP Munchlax?

[classy_cat18]

I'll take a Green MGCoin.

Your MP: Yes, it is! Pick your prize.

[Knight of Time]

The Green MGCoin is yours.

I'd like a Green MGCoin as well, then could I have 10 SCs (2, 4, 8, Green MGCoin) please?

[classy_cat18]

You get your coin, as well as 1 Green MGcoin, 4 Blue MGcoins, and 3 Red MGcoins from your scratchcards.

[Knight of Time]

Nice stuff.

Uh, could I have a GT!, please? It's been a while since I had one (and I guess it's also been a while since anyone here had one, for that matter).

[classy_cat18]

Because honestly, I don't like that game. Don't like having to come up with challenging GTs or asking others to do it for me. You might as well ask for a Blue MGCoin and save the couple of minutes. GT: This Pokemon is the only legendary to appear at the top of its regional Pokedex instead of near the bottom like other legendaries.

[Knight of Time]

It's Victini; may I have a Blue MGCoin if I'm right, please?

I'm sorry (and just a little sad) to hear you don't like GT!'s that much anymore Shonta, but just incase you don't get around to AIM, I know of a way to come up with some good GT!'s that should provide a decent challenge for anyone here...if you go to Bulbapedia and check the trivia section for a Pokemon in question, you might have an easier time coming up with good questions.

[classy_cat18]

It is Victini (who's literally #1, lol). You get your coin.

[Knight of Time]

Alright, can I use that Blue MGCoin as well as a Red MGCoin for some fishing on the same grid for A1, B2, and C3 please?

[classy_cat18]

Stat Modification Die, Mystery Box, Red MGCoin

[9/4] Welp, it's official, the Kanto 3 have gotten Mega Evolutions. What are your thoughts on them? Will you be chosing one of the 3 based on their new looks or an old favorite when you play the game (you have access to one right off the bat)? Any other pokemon you'd like to see get a Mega Evolution?

I was actually kinda shocked to see that they all got one... and both Char and Blas really seem pretty freaking awesome... not too much of a change on Venus, could have done a bit more... I'm still debating between Squirt and Char at this point, but if anything, I will end up with Squirtle again and try to get the Charmander later on in the game or via trade... As for anyone else getting one... well I'm guessing the rest of the Starters will all get one, but personally, I would love to see if they would give one to all the Eevee-lutions (a little too much to ask, but you never know) or Alakazam (make him hold multiple spoons! LOL)

MGs please and could I also get 10 Scratch Cards, Group 2, Green MG Coins, numbers 3, 6, 9 and can I get 3 fishing games, same grid, A3, C4, D2... thanks!

[classy_cat18]

Alex: MGs: Circle Gem, 1 Stamp/CCP. SCs: 2 Blue MGcoins, 6 Red MGcoins. FGs: Rainbow Gem, Blue MGCoin, Berry.

[Knight of Time]

Alright, some good stuff there.

I'd like to open up the Mystery Box, taking the usual stuff (1 Stamp and 1 CCP, 1 Red MGCoin, 1 Blue MGCoin, and the free MG) please.

[lvl100mewtwo]

[9/5] Last poll for a bit What are your thoughts on the PokeBank that will be introduced after the release of X/Y? Do you think it will benefit the overall community and make it easier to transfer between games or is Nintendo / GF treading a fine line with greed and DLC for charging for it?

I love the idea of the pokebank, i think its great in the long run, specially seeing you can now restart games and get more than one starter and such. I laugh at the people who think this will be the start of a slippery slope with Pokemon starting to charge for DLC and extra content. From what I understand, cloud computing isn't cheap, so it's only natural that it's costing something for a premium service, and 5$ (or what it's rumored to be priced) a year isn't exactly breaking the bank. They could have easily added the cost onto the game if they really wanted too...

MGs please and could I also get 10 Scratch Cards, Group 2, Green MG Coins, numbers 3, 6, 9 and can I get 3 fishing games, same grid, A3, C4, D2... thanks!

[Knight of Time]

Alex: Rainbow Gem, Mystery Box

SCs: 3 Blue MGCoins, 7 Red MGCoins

FGs: Magic Carapace, Green MGCoin, Flame Gem

[lvl100mewtwo]

Welp, that's a mighty fine Mystery Box then, I'll take the usual suspects: 1 Stamp, 1 CCP, 1 Red MGcoin, 1 Blue MG Coin, and a free MG.

[classy_cat18]

Kyle: Your free MG is a Lunar Gem.

Alex: Your free MG is a Hollow Stone.

[Knight of Time]

I'd like to sell the gem and the Stat Modification Die for CCPs please, as I may end up going to the Crystal Caves Kiosk in the not-too-distant future.

(9/5) Last poll for a bit What are your thoughts on the PokeBank that will be introduced after the release of X/Y? Do you think it will benefit the overall community and make it easier to transfer between games or is Nintendo / GF treading a fine line with greed and DLC for charging for it?

Well, at the moment I'm neutral about the PokeBank idea, but for it to have a fee, it bothers me just a tiny bit because in comparison, there isn't a fee for using a certain other Pokemon depositing/withdrawing service (one I haven't used in a while, though)...but as long as it makes Pokemon transferring easier and less risky, then I'm fine with it.

(9/4) Welp, it's official, the Kanto 3 have gotten Mega Evolutions. What are your thoughts on them? Will you be chosing one of the 3 based on their new looks or an old favorite when you play the game (you have access to one right off the bat)? Any other pokemon you'd like to see get a Mega Evolution?

I like the Mega Evolutions, it definitely is a great addition. I'm not sure if I will be picking one of these three, but I guess I like Mega Blastoise the most because of the small arm cannons, and the single big one on its back...as for other Pokemon getting a Mega Evolution, I wouldn't mind seeing a few more of them getting Mega Evolutions, like Dragonite and Salamence. I can only imagine how much stronger they would be if they got Mega Evolutions.

(9/3) Have you ever funded a Kickstarter project? Why or why not? If you haven't, what kind of project would you be willing to fund?

No I haven't, because I'm simply not familiar with them, and I'm not sure if I'd be willing to fund a project...maybe someday, but not right now since I don't have my own source of income yet.

In addition to the MGs, can I have a new game of MP with B/W please?

[classy_cat18]

You get your CCPs. MGs: Red MGcoin, Blue MGcoin, Hollow Stone. MP: Machoke, Probopass, Braviary, Cacnea, Donphan, Deoxys, Quagsire, Tepig, Wailmer, Mewtwo, Mienshao, Clefable, Frillish, Staraptor

[9/4] Welp, it's official, the Kanto 3 have gotten Mega Evolutions. What are your thoughts on them?

Any other pokemon you'd like to see get a Mega Evolution?
I was going to pick Charmander since Mega Charizard looks wicked awesome but I'm already getting Fennekin so I'll go with my second favorite, triple-cannon Mega Blastoise. I also hope they make Mega Heracross a thing, since some were speculating that and others.

I think it's handy for those who need to mass transfer between the DS games (which would obviously include Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Soul Silver and Heart Gold). And the fee makes sense; cloud-based transfer would mean that they would need huge servers which do take money to maintain. Five bucks a year (not even a month) is very reasonable to me.

[Knight of Time]

My MP: Machoke, Probopass, Braviary, Cacnea, Donphan, Deoxys, Quagsire, Tepig, Wailmer, Mewtwo, Mienshao, Clefable, Frillish, Staraptor

Question 1: Is the MP the highest evolution of a Pokemon evolution family consisting of at least 2 members?

[classy_cat18]

No, it's not.

Can I get my MGs?

[Knight of Time]

Gah, forgetfulness is getting me again these days, sorry (when I get stress from a recurring thing in real life that I don't like dealing with, it can make me a little forgetful). You get a Hollow Stone and an Ocean Gem.

My MP: Machoke, Cacnea, Deoxys, Tepig, Wailmer, Mewtwo, Frillish

Question 2: Did the MP debut in R/S/E?

[classy_cat18]

No, it didn't. And I'll go ahead and sell that stone and gem for stamps.

[Knight of Time]

3 Stamps are headed your way.

My MP: Machoke, Tepig, Mewtwo, Frillish

Question 3: Did the MP debut in RBY?

[classy_cat18]

No, it didn't.

[Knight of Time]

My MP: Tepig, Frillish

Question 4/Guess: Is the MP Frillish?

[classy_cat18]

No, sorry.

[Knight of Time]

Oh well, it's Tepig then. Blue MGCoin if I'm right, then could I have another MP game with B/W please?
