Easter Eggscapade

The Easter Eggscapade event was an Event that lasted for two weeks in 2023, starting on April 8^th and ending April 21^st. During the event, users completed a list of tasks relating to a storyline featuring a Togepi and a Vullaby.

Story

It's Easter and Professor Holly is preparing to host an egg painting event. Shazi and Sei, who are wonderful artists, volunteered to help. Prof. Holly asks the user to give her a hand carrying the paints. Outside, Sei is asking Shazi if she got all of the paintbrushes. Shazi notices the user and Prof. Holly walking up with the paint. They ask if Prof. Holly got all the pretty colours, even the cyan. The user helps them set up the painting booth and play the waiting game. Shazi doesn't like that game and would rather play Hungry Hungry Hippopopap instead.

A Deino comes to the booth wanting to paint some eggs. There is suddenly a crashing sound behind the user and a Togepi can be seen running off with the paint. Sei asks the user to chase after the Togepi since the booth will be chaos without both of them. After stating this Deino is seen eating the paintbrushes and Shazi is yelling that "Paintbrushes aren't tasty!"

Before the user knows it they are on the edge of town and they run into Novan-chan. She asks the user, "Where chu off to 'n such a hurry?" After being filled in about what has happened Novan decides to help get the paint back. Togepi comes out from a bush and flees before the user and Novan has a chance to react. The user finally spots Togepi and it is with a Vullaby. Novan asks why they tried to sabotage the event. Togepi and Vullaby explained that Togepi wanted to help Vullaby and only "borrowed" the paints. Novan states that they could have just come to the booth.

Upon their return Sei excalims that Shazi had to go deal with Deino again. Novan already seemed to know that Deino ate the paintbrushes. She then states that they found the runaway paints and a "coupl'a cuties" who wanted their shells painted. Vullaby doesn't want bright colours though. Sei excitedly agrees to help. Both Togepi and Vullaby are happy with how Sei painted their shells. Sei scolds them about asking first and that no one was going to say no since their booth was free. The two Pokémon accept the gentle scolding. Sei thanks the user for their help and the pair of Pokémon want to join the user's farm.
