August 6  PearlHyperPawmi is the special Pokemon on Moon Gaze Mountain for 2 weeks! August 4: Shiny Celestial Chase!        In a vaguely familiar turn of events, the Shiny Celestial Chase quest has begun! Something weird is happening in the battlegrounds all over Eternia and ShinyWalkingWake needs your help — head over to the Shiny Celestial Chase event page for full details! Eclipse Star August 1st Edition!  The latest edition of the Eclipse Star is here! Check out the new Eclipse Star by clicking here! August 1-3 A Gold Rush is currently live and will expire at 11:59 PM on the 3rd of August. If you would like to make an offer using the Gold Rush feature for your first monthly trade attempt, please let ★ Ultimew know when you PM for set requirement confirmation. You can find a general description and instructions for Gold Rush events here. July 24  Happy 26th birthday Baylor!! July 22: New Star Shop Avatars!      For the first time since its initial release, the Star Shop avatars section has received a completely new line-up of available avatars to buy with your  Star Points! A huge thanks goes to the wonderful Jelly for almost singlehandedly bringing this update to fruition!Tip: Star Points are a currency exclusively earned from Daily Prize Chests.July 15: New ??? DNAs!    A new selection of Pokemon can be restored from ALL classes of ??? DNAs! (So: map, battle, mining, chat, and Daily Prize DNAs.) All DNA classes have entirely new prize pools, meaning all prior ??? DNA Pokemon are now unobtainable. A big thanks once again to Kora ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ for preparing this update! Tip: ??? DNAs are a mysterious type of Pokemon DNA found randomly while searching the Legendary Areas, battling, mining, or chatting on the cbox. They can also be earned from Daily Prize chests. Visit the DNA Center to restore DNAs — you require 3 DNAs of a particular type to restore a Pokemon back to life. July 14: Happy Birthday Jelly!  Happy birthday to our beloved Jelly (Jelly/Patricia)!!! They keep growing up so fast irl aaaaaa!!! >w<!! ;-; In celebration, LegacyRetroSpheal is a Promotional Pokemon for today only! Make sure to wish Jelly a happy birthday if you see her, above ground, underneath a volcano, irl! :3 We love you so much Jelly, we hope you have an absolutely magnificent birthday (irl), you are a truly wonderful daughter!! ♥ ;-; July 10: HAPPY HEAD MODERATORSHIP ULTIMEW!!!  Once again, this is pretty much a mere extension and formalization of the role he has already been taking on in practice, but the hope is that this will allow for more frictionless operation of the site and reduce confusion. After all, it's rarely been ideal for me (Cless) to get personally involved in (for example) banning or demotion decisions when I could be coding new features or releasing new content. Indeed, the latter is where I thrive. The former, uh, not so much. To reiterate, this has basically been the status quo for a while, but it can cause confusion when e.g. people don't know who to go to for certain tasks or who's responsible for what. And perhaps most importantly, it's weird to see ★ Ultimew without something resembling the almighty "Webmaster" role !! ("Head Weebmaster" next?) We also hope this will help us bring in additional hires. Although I'm actually quite active on cbox these days, that isn't necessarily always the case (or at least not consistently), so I miss a bunch of players who would probably make good mod candidates. That makes it a little more awkward when I'm the one tasked with making the absolute final decision, inevitably laced with caveats and hesitation. Of course, I will still grant the final approval on new hires and chime in personally, but the decision will be primarily informed by the rest of the staff team, with ★ Ultimew's opinion holding significant weight, as well as my own experience. Therefore, we expect (and/or hope) to put more effort into seeking new hires and reaching out to the community in various forms over the coming months. If you are interested in becoming a mod on Pokemon Eclipse, please don't hesitate to submit a Mod Application - just make sure to read the post! July 8: Summer Star Shop Update!      The Pokemon area of the Star Shop has been overhauled with all-new Pokemon to buy with your Star Points! A big thanks once again to Jelly for her help with this wonderful rotation! Among the new prizes is DarkGalaxyZangoose, which is only available for one month! Thanks to Adez for this release! Tip: Star Points are a currency exclusively earned from Daily Prize Chests.Seillib Trading Week: July 2023  Seillib Trading Week is now underway. This summer's festivities will take place over the course of five days: between Wednesday, the 5th of July, and Sunday, the 9th of July.

July: Exclusive Donator Avatars!    The Exclusive Avatars for July 2023 are HyperTyeDyeMinior, HyperSunshineMinior, and HyperStormMinior! All donators who donate $25 or more in July will earn these avatars for free! The avatars are permanently and automatically added to your Avatar Collection.
