Hello all! Welcome to our second Secret Santa event!

This is a gift exchange. If you sign up, you will be given the username of one member who you will have to give a gift to. In return, someone will be giving you a gift! Hooray! Gifts will be delivered right after Christmas!

This year you have two options! You may sign up to one or both of them!

SIGN UPS CLOSE ON DECEMBER 4TH! You will be notified of your match by DECEMBER 6TH!

Wi-Fi Secret Santa!
Sign up to the Wi-Fi Secret Santa if you would like to send and receive a gift over Wi-Fi. To participate, you must have access to Wi-Fi, a 3DS and a copy of Pokemon X, Y, Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire. You must be able to connect to Wi-Fi and trade your gift by January 15th. You're not expected to give out shinies or "perfect IV" Pokemon. It's the thought that counts!

*squeals* I HAVE BEEN SO HYPED WAITING FOR THIS!! Shoutout to my secret Santa from last year @Corey who gave me a beast shiny Shaymin that destroys all of my friends in battle. I'll sign up when I get home, but question, if we sign up for both a wifi and a non wifi gift, do we have to be able to provide both?

[SassySnivy]

Are we gonna do another guessing game afterwards? 8D

I can't believe it's been this long already.

We might have a game just for fun. Maybe not for the Wi-Fi one, since that's a bit hard. xD

Woohoo! They will be run separately, so yes, if you sign up for both, you will need to give a Wi-Fi gift to your match in the Wi-Fi secret santa and a non-Wi-Fi gift to your match in the non-Wi-Fi secret santa!

Well I guess I'm out for wifi then since I don't have any way to provide for that. If injection were still around then I could but since it's not I can't really do much there unless I got extremely lucky.

A few favourite Pokemon: Shaymin, Quilava, Umbreon, Lucario, Gardevoir, Arbok, Salamence, and any dark type really.
Favourite colours: PURPLE, green, blue, and pink. I like all the colors though.
What do you like besides Pokemon?: Five Nights at Freddy’s, Legend of Zelda, Assassin’s Creed, Rapunzel, the Dystopian genre in books as whole, books in general, ravens, writing, el Dia de los muetros, roleplaying, magic, adventure, memes, etc.
Other: Wasn’t sure what you really wanted in the category above. Hope that was enough. XD Also, please take into consideration that I cannot do much in the ways of art, so if you’re going to give me something, please try to make it something not so difficult, otherwise it will not look great and the guilt will eat me alive. Also, very much okay with wifi gifts.
Do you promise to send a gift by December 24th?: Unless something terribly traumatic happens, yes. And unless I die, I’ll try to notify you that I can’t send my gift.

Thanks for signing up! :D

You don't have to give people ridiculously good stuff over Wi-Fi, like shinies or anything. It's really the thought that counts. The favourite Pokemon list is just there as a guide if you have no idea what they might like. But it's totally up to you! :) You have a while to decide anyway!

But I'd feel so guilty for not giving a good present. DX

In-Game Name: Colette (Y) / Lacey (OR)
Friend Code: 3866 8587 4429
10 favourite Pokemon: Every Eeveelution + Eevee (I really can't decide on one or two, so I'm putting them down as one Pokémon so they don't take up most my slots XD), Absol (Mega included), Jirachi, Latias (Mega included), Ninetales, Zorua, Fennekin, Hydreigon, Altaria (Mega included), Sceptile (Mega included)
Favourite region: Orre; if you want one from the main series, then Unova/Kalos
Other: I'm cool with receiving any other Pokémon within the lines of the ones I listed! (e.g., Braixen or Delphox instead of Fennekin, Swablu instead of Altaria, etc.) Also, I really like having nicknamed Pokémon and would prefer to receive ones that are named if possible.
