Doesnt that mean we'd have to catch 5 million pokemon each if everyone participated?

it's only counting people who use game sync, so i'd be surprised if the participation count was more than 500k. plus i'm sure not all of them are even actively participating

even if all 500k participated that would require 200 captures each

If it counted bred pokemon this shit would go a lot faster, since most of the hyper-autistic people are already done catching mons for the dex and have moved on to mass breeding, leaving mostly only the casuals to pick up the slack (which implies that casuals even think to use Game Link).

100 million from casuals is too much.

This challenge is the reason why I'm catching every single wild pokemon instead of fainting them

I've gotten some nice surprises from them too, like a Bold Hydration Wingull and a max speed IV Jolly Rockruff, so it isn't a complete waste

It's doable but only if you do your bit just buy a ton of Quick Balls and spam them in the early routes.

Also they really should've released this mission earlier, S/M's honeymoon period isn't gonna last very long.

It isn't worth it to go through the trouble of using the Poke Festival.

What's the reward, anyways? Is it just more fucking FC?

Yes. 100 if you participate at all, and 2000 if you participate and the goal is met.

That's shitty. With the amount of autistic breeders (including myself) then the goal of 100 million would be more realistic.

Ah, well. What can you do? Looks like I'm gonna have to grind thise 2000 coins with Type Matchup missions if I wanna buy a second five star Rare Kitchen.

I'd rather not make every time I connect to the internet take twice as long, especially since you removed the ability to turn it on and leave it that way.

Worst part is that if you have to disconnect and reconnect for some reason, it STILL spends the time syncing up, only to tell you 2 minutes later "Can't sync because you just did that!", and THEN loads the internet shit.
