Rewards

The article says: "Rewards are time-based: the lower the time taken, the better the prizes."

How so? The article lists just 1 prize per challenge.Machinedramon 20:44, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

It might have been that if you take longer than last time, you don't get a prize. I can't remember for sure. Gywall 20:58, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, looks like. Finish a few seconds under the last time and you get the prize again. Finish a few seconds over and you get an admonishment.Machinedramon 21:49, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Tower Shiny Pokémon

Wasn't there a shiny Pokémon in each set of trainers? Gywall 21:00, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

I've been doing the Mixed Match a few times today to test things, and there's no shinies there.Machinedramon 21:49, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Well, there's most certainly the shiny Espeon... jerks, they made me so pissed off because of that. TTEchidna 23:33, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
There's apparently a shiny Seaking [1] --FabuVinny |Talk Page| 11:53, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
There's also a shiny Meowth. The funny thing is it's owned by a burgler sprite, and a shiny Meowth would certainly be worth the steal, or it's a hommage to Team Rocket in the anime, or I'm completely reading it wrong.--QX Deoxys 03:38, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

Why...

Why is there the sprite of the shiny Espeon on the page? :| That's...sort of pointless, and it looks like someones (eg. a spammer or vandal) just randomly put it there. I mean, i know it's there 'cause of the whole "you can battle a shiny Espeon" thing, but there's also a shiny Meowth. So yeah. I didn't wanna remove the image in case i got yelled at my another user :< Takoto タコト| サソデイ = 愛 15:53, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Um Takoto... I don't see a sprite of a shiny Espeon... I see a battle screenshot of shiny Seaking though... ht14 03:44, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
That's because the shiny Espeon was removed two years ago. :P 梅子 03:49, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
