Hey, ehm... Funny story... I haven't played Gen VI, and I was saving Flabb thinking it was really cute and having the wrong thought that it was Floette-esque from what I remembered watching on the anime. Floette was eliminated immediately after I looked her up and realized: "Oh no! Floette was the one I had to save!" I agree, Floette is the best in its line, but it was too late for me to realize my mistake.


Floette isn't that much different in design from Flabb. Also, there's a special Floette form known as "Eternal Flower Floette" which is owned by a character from Gen VI called AZ. This is the special Floette form:

The form is also different from regular Floette for having increased base stats over the regular form. It still hasn't been officially released in any Pokemon games after nearly 5 years. Anyone who has this form in their Gen VI or VII game would have to obtain it through hacking.

Also, it seems like no one cares about Flabb than just me. Makes me feel... special getting her so far. But hey, saving Flabb or saving Butterfree, I'd much rather save Butterfree.


Why didn't you bother supporting Floette? I actually think Floette is the best one in its line, coming out on top over both Flabb and Florges.

I would have supported Flabb if it wasn't for having so many other Pokemon to save as well.

Good saves there. Virizion and Victini were both on my list to save, but I had to make a tough decision on what to save since I could only save 5 at the end.

At least this was the right time for me to sack Manaphy, as I had been preparing to sack it for the last 3 or 4 rounds if necessary.

I'm thinking we should slow down the eliminations even more as we continue moving closer to the top 200. Maybe switch over to 10 eliminations per day until we reach the top 200. After playing around with some possible elimination schedules, we could have a 117 round contest with the following elimination schedule:

Starting at Top 300 - 10 eliminations per day
Starting at Top 200 - 5 eliminations per day
Starting at Top 100 - 2 eliminations per day
Starting at Top 50 - 1 elimination per day

Which ends up being a 117 round contest, or right around the 4 month contest length that tennisboy was aiming for.

This round ended up being closer to 3 hours instead. It's a safe bet the next round will be under 3 hours unless we move to 4 saves per hour instead.

We're also getting close to the top 200, which is when I assume we'll switch over to 2 saves being required to be safe. The previous Save My Pokemon started with 721 Pokemon and we switched over to 2 saves to be safe with 180 Pokemon remaining. Following the same trend set by the previous contest, the switch to 2 saves to be safe should happen at the top 200.

The change to 6 saves per hour did move the length of the round closer to 3 hours, but it was still under 3 hours. We still need to try and move the length closer to 4 hours, and that means moving to 5 saves per hour next round.

Poor Lurantis, though.

I was already preparing for a potential sacrifice this round when I moved Magearna and Victini out of my first set of saves, knowing that I might need to send it out the door in favor of keeping better Pokemon alive. And the same goes for Manaphy being demoted to my short list of potential last minute saves.

We've had a total of 4 straight rounds lasting under 3 hours and they all occurred with 10, 9, 8, and 7 saves per hour respectively. It's clear that simply reducing the saves per hour by 1 every round isn't doing anything to make these rounds last longer. The ideal length for a round is about 4 hours, which is enough to give most people 3 full sets of saves assuming they show up during the first hour of a round.

We started the contest with 807 Pokemon and 10 saves per hour, yet we're down to 400 Pokemon and we only went down to 7 saves per hour. At this point, we have a very good read on the participation level so far and 7 saves per hour is too much at this point.

The 2 best Tapus have managed to come out on top in this contest. Tapu Lele and Tapu Fini are the only ones left and I'm not dropping them anytime soon.

It sucks losing Azelf, Clefairy, Marshadow, and Steenee though.

I'm actually liking these quick rounds.


Quick rounds are really bad from a participation perspective. If you don't show up within the first 15 minutes of a round, you probably won't get a third set of saves. Rounds that last less than 2 1/2 hours gives people a very small time window to put in at least one set of saves.

Switching from 9 saves per hour to 8 saves per hour did absolutely nothing to fix our extremely quick rounds since we're still eliminating 50 Pokemon per round. This round didn't even last more than 2 1/2 hours. We need another reduction in saves per hour to make these rounds last longer than 3 hours again.

I disagree a little. I think the 50 cut is fine until this gets down to a more reasonable amount of pokemon to deal with.


When we're getting close to eliminating half of the total Pokemon from the contest and there's still 50 eliminations per round, I think it's time to reduce it to 25 instead.

Despite the change to 9 saves per hour, this round ended even quicker than the previous round. It doesn't help that 50 eliminations per round has overstayed its welcome at this point and should probably be reduced to 25 eliminations instead. And I don't think moving to 8 saves per hour next round will help very much, so we should simply jump to 7 saves per hour next round.
