Thanks again for such a fun event, this has been the best I've taken part in during my time in FB for sure - 'grats to SpinyShell on the win and great work to everyone else who got involved on that front took, looks like it was a tight race for sure!

Gathered alongside other successful explorers of the haunted maze, Zak and his Pokémon companions watched in awe as they saw their very first glimpse of a Pumpkasaur and what appeared to be its evolution. This felt like a once in a lifetime experience and the man wished he had the artistic capabilities that he could have put to use to help with Palm's field research. That was okay, though, as the academic appeared to be rather overwhelmed by the sheer amount of thorough research gathered by a number of the other gathered trainers who had got a closer look at the beasts.

As the man and his companions watched the gathering Pumpkasaur, it looked as if one of them did not seem to be evolving like its kin and was being picked on because of the fact. This made both of the Pokémon with him sad and the Murkrow cawed angrily at the strange Ivysaur. This didn't last for very long and they soon seemed to bore of picking on the Fizzytopian Builbasaur and continued their evolutionary odyssey into the deeper woodland. With nothing left to see and plenty of notes to go over, Palm ushered the group away from the meadow once more.

After a short walk past the maze entrance, the Professor led the group of explorers and their Pokémon towards another clearing with what appeared to have banners and decorations strung up. An impromptu party for the amateur research unit seemed a bit of a strange event but it quickly became clear that this soiree was not intended for them. A whole host of Pokémon had gathered in the clearing, some of which looked familiar to Zak, Crawford and Sunny, including the Gengar that had played tricks on them within the confines of the maze as well as the Murkrow they had encountered in their final leg. Looking around, the man couldn't help but laugh, having thought the worst of some of the experiences in the maze when really the Pokémon were deep in preparation.

"Who'd have thought we were getting in the way of the party planning the whole time?" Zak chuckled, scooping his own Murkrow up and popping him onto his shoulder once again before squishing the Drifblim's cheek and heading towards the gathered spooks. Reuniting with Sunny had been the highlight of his trip in Fizzytopia so far and the man was more grateful than the Blimp Pokémon could ever know that the two of them were together again. Though he was young, Crawford the Murkrow had kept a keen eye on the reunion and seemed to be an astute bird as corvids were often known to be, giving the pair space to catch up whilst managing to forge his own friendship with the shiny Drifblim at the same time.

Distracted by all of the commotion and the cohort of spooky partygoers, Zak was quick to surprise when one of the maze's inhabitants floated over to him and his Pokémon with a selection of favours. The gift selection was a welcome surprise and the Murkrow eyed the shiny selection from his perch on his trainer's shoulder. Amongst the favours, there was a mysterious Pokémon egg and Sunny drifted forwards to scoop up the oval gift, keen to protect his future friend and get him transported safely to the Hatchery.

Collecting the following gifts:
- A Halloween egg (spoopy times!)
- 5 Rare Candies
- A Vampire Ball
- A Bubbling Cauldron
Happy Halloween one and all!

Once again, I would like to thank you all for your participation this month, this was honestly the most fun event I’ve ever run in FB, and the reception I have received from all of you is very encouraging for more events like these in the future! I’m sure many of you have questions about Fizzytopian regional variants, and Fizzytopian Essences, and I plan on opening a feedback discussion very soon to clarify all of the fine details and answer whatever questions you might have. Until then, Happy Halloween!

P.S. I’m sure you guys have a lot of questions about the maze itself and how the voting went. As promised, I said I would reveal the maze’s layout when the event was over, so here it is! Attached are the top three vote-getters as well.
Spoiler: show
Spoiler: show

I took some liberties with some of the intersections to make it flow better in a RP format, but here it is in all its glory with the shortest possible solution. Don’t ask what the demon in the well is, because I won’t answer it lol, I figure it’s best to leave it ambiguous in case it ever pops up another time.
RP:
Spoiler: show
As the group of Trainers waiting for the Pumpkasaur ritual to begin grew larger and larger, the Pumpkasaur gathered in the clearing started to glow with evolution energy. Professor Palm went over and observed the Pumpkasaur with everyone else.

"Whoa!" Jake breathed, pointing at the group of Grass-types. "It's starting! Come look!" He waved Lucario, Buizel, and Staravia over, and the four moved closer to the happenings.

By the time the last of the Trainers arrived, some of the Fizzytopian regional variants had completed their transformation into a never-before-seen evolutionary form, while the Fizzytopian Venusaur who oversaw the event was worth noting as well. Jake watched some of the other Trainers try to sketch down what they saw. Interestingly, one of the Pumpkasaur was struggling to evolve, and the Ivysaur variants were beginning to crowd around it. But just as Jake thought to try and step in to mediate the situation, an eerie laugh echoed from a part of the garden, scaring off the Pokémon in the field.

Disappointed, Professor Palm led the Trainers around the maze and to a different part of the garden, to compare the drawings that had been made of the "new" Ivysaur and Venusaur. Thankfully, the obstructing vines looked to have been trimmed, letting Jake and his Pokémon not need to worry about getting tangled in them. But, what lay ahead was certainly an unexpected sight.

Jake rubbed his eyes and even tapped into his aura abilities to make sure that what he was seeing wasn't a mirage of any kind. Buizel and Lucario did the same, and Staravia, who had taken flight, landed on the ground so as to concentrate. Why, who would expect a group of rowdy Ghost and Dark-type Pokémon to be throwing a party in the garden—a birthday party, no less? Seeing that Haunter and Gengar were the ones being celebrated reminded Jake of his own Gengar.

Before he knew it, a sack of materials was thrust into Jake's hands. After he put the bag on the ground and waved his Pokémon over to look, a look at the contents inside revealed an assortment of goodies, from special Pokéballs to a protective held item that doubled as a Halloween costume. Especially notable was the oddly-patterned Egg in the sack, that several other Trainers called the "Halloween Egg". Jake would need to take it to the Hatchery later to find out what could hatch from it.

As the young Aura Guardian and his Pokémon looked on, the Trainers who had sketched their ideas of Pumpkasaur’s evolutionary forms stepped forward, as the Pumpkasaur who had struggled to evolve came to the group. Professor Palm gestured for the Pumpkasaur to examine each drawing. While it seemed to mainly consider three of the Trainers' drawings, the Pumpkasaur ultimately settled on the sketches of a Trainer whom Jake did not recognize. Must be new around here, he thought.
() But it was surely amazing how well the drawings matched the actual Pokémon.

Jake smiled congratulatively while Professor Palm gifted the winning Trainer a Ghostium Z and all the artists a pouch of pollen each. The aura user stored his own prizes away in his seemingly limitless backpack, and prepared to head back home with his Pokémon, before remembering the promise he made to Buizel and Lucario at the start of the maze.
"Now, that Pokédex entry I mentioned earlier," Jake addressed Buizel and Lucario (and Staravia, too), reaching into his pocket and taking out his Pokédex. "Let's see if we can't retrieve the information about Pumpkasaur that I found." He typed the name of the Fizzytopian regional variant into the search bar.

As the three Pokémon crowded around him, Jake Celeste turned on the sound of his Pokédex and allowed it to read out one of Pumpkasaur's placeholder entries:


Pumpkasaur, the Pumpkin Seed Pokémon. A Grass and Poison-type. A rare sight in the wild, its preferred habitat remains shrouded in mystery. The few sightings of Pumpkasaur in the wild are invariably in the autumn.

"Show other placeholder entries?" the Pokédex inquired. A pop-up with options "Yes" and "No" appeared on the bottom screen.

Jake nodded and tapped the "Yes" option. "Yes, please!" he requested excitedly.

And so, the Pokédex continued in reading off the next of Pumpkasaur's Pokédex entries.

Sometimes, an eerie laugh will sound around these Pokémon with no discernible source. In all recorded instances, however, any nearby Pumpkasaur were invariably especially pleased about something.


(OOC: Credit to Missingno. Master for providing the Pumpkasaur picture and Pokédex entries that are in this RP post of mine! )

Claiming these rewards. Thank you for holding this event; I really enjoyed it, and I look forward to events in the future!

The trainers who had left to go scout the gathering of Pumpkasaur sat atop the cliff side and quietly watched with sketchbooks in hand as the myriad of pumpkin-topped toads called out and began to glow. The Pumpkasaur grew larger as the bulbs on their backs developed while the largest one in the center, likely a variation of Venusaur, oversaw the entire event. Having made his way through the maze, Professor Palm joined the group and whispered excitedly, “Amazing… this will completely revolutionize the way we study the ecosystem in Fizzytopia…”

As the last of the trainers made their way through the maze’s exit, they congregated with those who had gone ahead and attempted to capture the events that had transpired on paper. As the events below the cliff continued to unfold, there seemed to be a small commotion in the middle of the meadow. One of the Pumpkasaur seemed to be having difficulties with its evolution, and it was beginning to be singled out by its larger counterparts. However, the squabble was broken up as a burst of disembodied laughter echoed out of a nearby part of the garden. With their gathering disrupted and the primary objective complete, the Fizzytopian Ivysaur quickly dispersed into the thick woods that surrounded the area.

“Darn, I guess that’s all we’ll get to witness,” Professor Palm sighed, “Let’s head back to the entrance and compare our notes.” The group decided to skip the maze on the way back, heading to a nearby section of the haunted garden. Most of the vines had been cleared out, making passage a lot easier. There seemed to be quite a commotion up ahead. If the trainers didn’t know any better, it seemed as if there were some kind of party going on.

A big banner was covered in red finger paints and covered in various Pokemon foot and paw prints, sloppily reading, “HAPPY DEATH DAY!” There was quite the assortment of Pokemon taking part in the celebration; A Trevenant, Pumpkaboo, Aegislash, Inkay, Malamar, Spinarak, Ariados, Joltik, Galvantula, two Abra, Sinistea, Rotom Mow, an Impidimp covered in mud, Murkrow, Honchkrow, Alolan Marowak, Zorua, and something indistinguishable in the far back, obscured by all of the other Pokemon. In the center of celebration is a Haunter and a Gengar, both wearing party hats and thoroughly enjoying the surprise party their friends had thrown them. A large pile of birthday presents, likely gathered from stuff thrown into a well or something, was being distributed to the two happy ghosts. Grateful for such a successful party to be organized without a hitch, several of the Pokemon gathered up some party favors and distributed them to the trainers as they passed by.

Additionally, the following trainers that scouted ahead to investigate the Pumpkasaur were able to gather up something extra:The trainers who sketched the Pumpkasaur evolution event were able to gather an assortment of pollen, collecting the powder in a small pouch:
1x TR Pollen Puff
1x TR Seed Bomb
1x Fizzytopian Essence
, as Professor Palm called it, containing mysterious effects related to the Pumpkasaur; the full effects would need to be researched and revealed at a later date.
Once everyone was back at the Haunted Mansion’s entrance, it was time to go over the findings that had been sketched during the Pumpkasaur evolution gathering. There were a few noticeable differences between some of the sketches, likely caused by the artists having such a faraway vantage point to get everything exact, but overall they mostly shared some traits that were the most essential aspects of the Fizzytopian Ivysaur and Venusaur. “Wow, these all look so amazing! You guys really did some outstanding work collecting all of this data,” Professor Palm exclaimed. “Now we just need to figure out how to compile all of these and discern which traits are the most accurate.” The group was interrupted by a “SAUR” that called out from behind them.

Turning around, the group spotted a lonesome Pumpkasaur who approached the group. It was possible that this was the same one who wanted to evolve on its own terms, and this courageous Pumpkasaur didn’t seem too afraid of humans either. “Perfect timing! Why don’t you tell us which of these is the most accurate version of your species?” Professor Palm asked the small creature as he gestured to the assortment of sketches. The Pumpkasaur carefully looked at each of the drawings, taking its time to look them all over. It seemed especially stuck between three of the sketches, but ultimately it exclaimed “Saur!” and nodded its head towards one of them. Professor Palm held up the sketch side-by-side with the Pumpkasaur and the resemblance was uncanny. Pumpkasaur sidled up beside the artist’s side, offering to join them on their adventures.


Professor Palm smiled and handed a Ghostium-Z to the trainer who Pumpkasaur had chosen. “I’m sorry I couldn’t bring more for the rest of you for all of your assistance, but I wasn’t expecting anyone to take me seriously after that talk show. Just know that you all have my unending gratitude for everything you have done to help validate my life’s research. I’m going to keep travelling the region of Fizzytopia in search of more species variants, and whenever our paths cross again I’ll make sure everyone gets their due credit! I look forward to working with you all again in the future!” With that, Professor Palm bid everyone adieu and hurried off to type up all of his findings to publish to the Fizzytopian science journals.
Making it through the maze was just the beginning. Keith led his family onward, to where the Pumpkasaur were gathering. A large Pokémon, clearly the final evolution, was overseeing the whole thing, as Keith furiously began to sketch what he saw.

"Amazing," Willa whispered.

"Yeah," Keith nodded. "This is just like the night Dennis evolved into Ivysaur!"

"This is so exciting!" whispered Trevenant.

"Pumpka..." Autumn murmured, eyeing the ceremony apprehensively. And as the Venusaur-esque creature's pollen touched down, all the gathered Pumpkasaur began to glow, Autumn included. But while the wild ones allowed the transformation to unfold, Autumn's glow flickered, her body not changing one bit. "Saaaaur... Saaaaur..." Autumn groaned.

"Autumn?" murmured Willa.

"It... it looks like she's trying to not evolve," whispered Maribel.

Moments later, after the other Pumpkasaur had evolved, and Keith had hastily sketched what he saw, he looked at his own Pumpkasaur, for Autumn had sucessfully resisted the urge and stayed the way she was. She looked at the ground, seemingly determined to not look her Trainer in the eyes.

But Keith scooped the Grass/Poison-type into his arms. "It's OK, Autumn," he said with a reassuring smile. "You don't have to evolve if you don't want to. Remember, when I caught you, I didn't think your kind even could evolve and I was OK with that."

"Pumpka~" Autumn smiled, reassured by her Trainer's statements.

~~~~~

Not long after, the various Trainers had gathered elsewhere- those who were trying to sketch the Pumpkasaur evolutions were only able to get so much before the evolutions dispersed. A lone Pumpkasaur who had declined to evolve as well, was with Professor Palm, and was ultimately called upon to determine whose sketches were the most accurate. To Keith's mild indignation, not only were his not considered the most accurate, they weren't even among the top three that the Pumpkasaur was looking at. Ultimately, the Pumpkasaur elected to go along with the Trainer who had done the most accurate sketches, and Professor Palm also had a Ghostium Z to give her. Keith wasn't too bothered missing out on that- his wife, after all, had one, and the two had developed a tendency to share their Z-Crystals since getting married. But even still, Keith had worked hard on his sketches, and was honestly a little dejected that the Pumpkasaur didn't consider them to even be close to accurate. But, Keith reminded himself, they weren't leaving empty-handed. It was a valuable experience for all concerned, and he even had a pouch of this strange pollen which the professor had dubbed Fizzytopian Essence. There was surely going to be a lot more research done into the notion of Fizzytopian Forms moving forward, and Keith, for one, was excited to see what this would mean. Especially if it meant more Poison-types like Pumpkasaur being discovered.


*Keith received the Halloween Egg!*

*Obtained 5 Rare Candies!*

*Obtained the Franken Ball!*

*Obtained the Plague Doctor Mask!*

*Keith obtained a TR96 Pollen Puff!*

*Keith obtained a TR59 Seed Bomb!*


*Keith obtained the Fizzytopian Essense!*

Having made his way through the maze, Professor Palm joined the group and whispered excitedly, “Amazing… this will completely revolutionize the way we study the ecosystem in Fizzytopia…”

As the last of the trainers made their way through the maze’s exit, they congregated with those who had gone ahead and attempted to capture the events that had transpired on paper. As the events below the cliff continued to unfold, there seemed to be a small commotion in the middle of the meadow. One of the Pumpkasaur seemed to be having difficulties with its evolution, and it was beginning to be singled out by its larger counterparts. However, the squabble was broken up as a burst of disembodied laughter echoed out of a nearby part of the garden. With their gathering disrupted and the primary objective complete, the Fizzytopian Ivysaur quickly dispersed into the thick woods that surrounded the area.

“Darn, I guess that’s all we’ll get to witness,” Professor Palm sighed, “Let’s head back to the entrance and compare our notes.” The group decided to skip the maze on the way back, heading to a nearby section of the haunted garden. Most of the vines had been cleared out, making passage a lot easier. There seemed to be quite a commotion up ahead. If the trainers didn’t know any better, it seemed as if there were some kind of party going on.

A big banner was covered in red finger paints and covered in various Pokemon foot and paw prints, sloppily reading, “HAPPY DEATH DAY!” There was quite the assortment of Pokemon taking part in the celebration; A Trevenant, Pumpkaboo, Aegislash, Inkay, Malamar, Spinarak, Ariados, Joltik, Galvantula, two Abra, Sinistea, Rotom Mow, an Impidimp covered in mud, Murkrow, Honchkrow, Alolan Marowak, Zorua, and something indistinguishable in the far back, obscured by all of the other Pokemon. In the center of celebration is a Haunter and a Gengar, both wearing party hats and thoroughly enjoying the surprise party their friends had thrown them. A large pile of birthday presents, likely gathered from stuff thrown into a well or something, was being distributed to the two happy ghosts. Grateful for such a successful party to be organized without a hitch, several of the Pokemon gathered up some party favors and distributed them to the trainers as they passed by.


For completing the maze or scouting the Pumpkasaur gathering, the following trainers find an assortment of goodies left at their feet:Upon closer inspection, the assortment of goodies included:
1x Halloween Egg
5x Rare Candies
1x Custom Pokeball (Choose ONE of the following: )
Mummy Ball
Wereball
Franken Ball
Pumpkin Ball
Vampire Ball
1x Custom Hold Item (Choose ONE of the following: )
Bubbling Cauldron
Devil Horns
Mummy Bandages
Plague Doctor Mask

The holder drains 10% of the damage inflicted by Biting attacks to recover health. However, the holder loses 1/8th of its maximum health every turn during Intense Sunlight.
Thanks for the event and the speedrun Gary!

Lv.1 male Pumpkasaur with the Egg Move ‘Trick-or-Treat’ and Custom Move ‘Pumpkin Bomb’
1x Ghostium-Z
Yes, as of now, Pumpkasaur may evolve into Squashsaur at lv.16 at night, and into Gourdasaur at lv.32 at night, and all of the Pumpkasaur line may learn Egg Move Trick-or-Treat!
Thank you everyone. This was a super fun contest!

Picking up my Pumpkasaur, naming him Umbra, declaring his ability to be Overgrow, and putting him in this Dusk Ball.

Edit: Also claiming...

1x TR Pollen Puff
1x TR Seed Bomb
1x Fizzytopian Essence
1x Halloween Egg
5x Rare Candies
1x Plague Doctor Mask
1x Pumpkin Ball
1x Ghostium-Z

Edit 2: I also made humpy sprites for Pumpkasaur, Squashsaur, and Gourdasaur if needed. Their framerate is 6 FPS just FYI, isn't in line with the sprites from the moveset viewer, but seemed close enough.


Edit 3: Thanks to Emp, I was able to re-edit the sprites so that their bounce is the same frequency as the rest.

Once everyone was back at the Haunted Mansion’s entrance, it was time to go over the findings that had been sketched during the Pumpkasaur evolution gathering. There were a few noticeable differences between some of the sketches, likely caused by the artists having such a faraway vantage point to get everything exact, but overall they mostly shared some traits that were the most essential aspects of the Fizzytopian Ivysaur and Venusaur. “Wow, these all look so amazing! You guys really did some outstanding work collecting all of this data,” Professor Palm exclaimed. “Now we just need to figure out how to compile all of these and discern which traits are the most accurate.” The group was interrupted by a “SAUR” that called out from behind them.

Turning around, the group spotted a lonesome Pumpkasaur who approached the group. It was possible that this was the same one who wanted to evolve on its own terms, and this courageous Pumpkasaur didn’t seem too afraid of humans either. “Perfect timing! Why don’t you tell us which of these is the most accurate version of your species?” Professor Palm asked the small creature as he gestured to the assortment of sketches. The Pumpkasaur carefully looked at each of the drawings, taking its time to look them all over. It seemed especially stuck between three of the sketches, but ultimately it exclaimed “Saur!” and nodded its head towards one of them. Professor Palm held up the sketch side-by-side with the Pumpkasaur and the resemblance was uncanny. Pumpkasaur sidled up beside the artist’s side, offering to join them on their adventures.

And there you have it! Congratulations to SpinyShell! It was an incredibly close race that came down to the wire. Thank you all for voting, and an even bigger thanks to all of you who submitted your wonderful artwork! For coming in first place, SpinyShell is awarded the following:

Yes, as of now, Pumpkasaur may evolve into Squashsaur at lv.16 at night, and into Gourdasaur at lv.32 at night, and all of the Pumpkasaur line may learn Egg Move Trick-or-Treat!

Professor Palm smiled and handed a Ghostium-Z to the trainer who Pumpkasaur had chosen. “I’m sorry I couldn’t bring more for the rest of you for all of your assistance, but I wasn’t expecting anyone to take me seriously after that talk show. Just know that you all have my unending gratitude for everything you have done to help validate my life’s research. I’m going to keep travelling the region of Fizzytopia in search of more species variants, and whenever our paths cross again I’ll make sure everyone gets their due credit! I look forward to working with you all again in the future!” With that, Professor Palm bid everyone adieu and hurried off to type up all of his findings to publish to the Fizzytopian science journals.

Once again, I would like to thank you all for your participation this month, this was honestly the most fun event I’ve ever run in FB, and the reception I have received from all of you is very encouraging for more events like these in the future! I’m sure many of you have questions about Fizzytopian regional variants, and Fizzytopian Essences, and I plan on opening a feedback discussion very soon to clarify all of the fine details and answer whatever questions you might have. Until then, Happy Halloween!


P.S. I’m sure you guys have a lot of questions about the maze itself and how the voting went. As promised, I said I would reveal the maze’s layout when the event was over, so here it is! Attached are the top three vote-getters as well.

I took some liberties with some of the intersections to make it flow better in a RP format, but here it is in all its glory with the shortest possible solution. Don’t ask what the demon in the well is, because I won’t answer it lol, I figure it’s best to leave it ambiguous in case it ever pops up another time.

"Gordon! There you are, I've been looking all over this maze for you!" Hyrem said as he rushed to his Pumpkasaur who had miraculously made it out of the maze without him, almost as if he knew where to go. Gordon then put a paw forward, showing a small multitude of other Pumpkasaur in front of them, as well as what looked like a Venusaur, though with a similar pumpkin theme to that of the Pumpkasaur. All of the Pumpkasaur, including Gordon, were muttering a haunting incantation, and it went on for a good 10 minutes before the pumpkin variant Venusaur gave a mighty roar. All of the Pumpkasaur, again including Gordon, then started glowing a bright light, as if they were looking to change forms!

"Wait...I thought they couldn't..." he said to himself as he witnessed the changes happening. And yet they were. The pumpkins on their backs started to open up a little bit as they grew in size, and they started to develop a cap on their heads, resembling the top of a pumpkin. As soon as they stopped evolving, they all looked like Ivysaur except with pumpkins that were a bit more open at the top and seemingly emitting a purple flame at the opening...a ghostly flame. "I've never seen Ivysaur like that before...but did Gordon...?" Hyrem looked to his own and saw that he had become the same kind of Ivysaur the other Pumpkasaur did, though seemingly bigger than the others. Perhaps his size growth that triggered when he normally would have evolved had carried over with this real evolution? "Gordon, you actually did it! This is so cool!" he said as he hugged his newly evolved Squashsaur. "And look over there: maybe you'll get to evolve into that big guy someday too!" Looking at the Venusaur variant, he kept the form in his mind, something to look forward to as he and Gordon left the gathering in peace.

Evolution!! Fizzytopian Bulbasaur evolved into Fizzytopian Ivysaur!

Vampire Ball
1x Custom Hold Item (Choose ONE of the following: )
Bubbling Cauldron
Devil Horns
Mummy Bandages
Plague Doctor Mask
Scarecrow Vest
Skull of the Forgotten Souls
Vampire Cape
Vampire Fangs
Werewolf Claws
Zombie Mask
Vampire Fangs
The holder drains 10% of the damage inflicted by Biting attacks to recover health. However, the holder loses 1/8th of its maximum health every turn during Intense Sunlight.
Additionally, the following trainers that scouted ahead to investigate the Pumpkasaur were able to gather up something extra:The trainers who sketched the Pumpkasaur evolution event were able to gather an assortment of pollen, collecting the powder in a small pouch:
1x TR Pollen Puff
1x TR Seed Bomb
1x Fizzytopian Essence
, as Professor Palm called it, containing mysterious effects related to the Pumpkasaur; the full effects would need to be researched and revealed at a later date.

...So, it turns out that I get a lot more from this than I initially thought, so uh... guess I'll claim all those now, then?

*Obtained Halloween Egg x1!*
*Obtained Rare Candy x5!*
*Obtained Mummy Ball x1*
*Obtained Skull of Forgotten Souls x1!*
*Obtained TR Pollen Puff x1*
*Obtained TR Seed Bomb x1!*
*Obtained Fizzytopian Essence x1*

And while I'm here, I'd like to transfer my Galarian Yamask into the Mummy Ball and use her 30 Bond to teach her the TRs (both Unnatural).

*Mallachd Fighe learned TR Pollen Puff!*
*Mallachd Fighe learned TR Seed Bomb!*
