October 1st & 2nd - Battle Convention The long awaited Battle Convention has come to Viridian City. Be sure to check it out here. More information can be found here.
October 9th - Swarm As darkness falls and a round Hunter's Moon rises in the sky, howls suddenly start filling the air. Hopefully you are safely inside, because a swarm of Houndoom, Mightyena and Midnight Lycanroc are taking to the forest and streets, and they are baying for battle.
October 16th - Swarm As the sun sinks below the horizon, suddenly the night's silence is broken by odd shuffling sounds and strange calls. What is out there, moving in the night? There are strange sounds of flippers dragging where they shouldn't go, eyes gleaming where no eyes should be, calls coming forth from mishapen mouths. That's right, a swarm of Arctovish, Arctozolt, Dracovish and Dracozolt are crowding the streets, searching for their lost masters.
October 23rd - Swarm A cool, autumn night falls, but not before the swoop of wingbeats can be heard. Eyes gleam in the dark, and quick shapes dart through every body of water. They are here. And they are hungry. A swarm of Gorebyss, Gliscor and Crobat is on the hunt for blood and battle. Better guard your necks!
October 31st - Halloween! Oh, it is that wonderful time of year again. Christmas? Of course not! It's Halloween, and this year, Riegfried and Soy have something special in mind for all of you. Keep your eyes out for an info post later this month.
Weather Info
October 1st and 2nd October starts with fairly neutral weather. Not too hot, not too cold, not too sunny, no rain, no heavy winds. Perfect battling weather.
October 3rd - October 9th After two neutral days, October properly starts off with lots and lots of rain. And winds, whipping through the trees, stripping them of their turning leaves. And... Crabrawler? That's right! The Crabrawler have started their yearly migration across Island Three in the Sevii Islands. If you happen to be in the area, you'll be treated to the sight of so many crabs scurrying across the land, often while chased by broom-wielding residents, who are just trying to keep their pots and pans safe. If you stand still long enough, you'll either be handed a broom, or fall victim to the Crab onslaught.
October 10th - October 16th As the week progresses, the rains slowly lessen. They do not disappear entirely (why would you expect that, it's fall, after all!) but in between the showers, there are long sunny periods. It's perfect weather for going on a comfortable forest walk to try and spot the Deerling in their new fall colours.
October 17th - October 23rd This week sees a few days of relatively warm fall weather, making it the perfect time to go berry hunting. It might be your last chance too before winter hits! And if you aren't interested in the berries, then maybe you are interested in the many foraging pokemon that are gorging on these last fall delights in preparation for winter. While they are eating, many of these pokemon are not paying close attention, and could become very easy targets for capture. Think about it!
October 24th - October 31st Steadily dropping temperatures and lots of moisture in the air means that every day starts off with a heavy blanket of fog, which slowly (very slowly) dissipates as the morning progresses. It makes for some stunning (if not slightly creepy) sights, but then, isn't that just perfect for the time of year? Do watch out though. Some Castform are taking advantage of the thick fogs to play tricks on people while in Fog form themselves.
