PFQ's festivities are referred to as '''Events''', be they items, Pokémon or occurences on-site. An announcement is made whenever an Event takes place, sometimes even a couple of days/weeks prior to the Event so that users can prepare for it.
'''Events''' are special occurrences on-site that can include rewards like Items or special [[Pokémon]]. They have a set start and end date and cannot be performed after they ended. Events are usually announced in the [[Public Forums]], but sometimes remain surprises to the user.

[[File:Cats.png|200px|frame|left|I set up you the bomb!]]All Pokémon sprites were changed to one of Espurr in a bubble. Upon viewing a Pokémon's [[summary page]], the owner's name would show up as [//q.pokefarm.org/user/CATS CATS], one of the site's Non-Playable Characters.


The event is a reference to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Wing| Zero Wing], a video game which has become infamous on the internet for its [http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/all-your-base-are-belong-to-us| extremely bad translation]. CATS' Trainer Card note, farm name, and Pokémon descriptions are all pieces of dialogue from the game's intro. His user description has a music player, which plays the game's intro theme.

From February 14th to February 16th, users could obtain Sweet Hearts. These odd items could give unique effects to Pokémon, as well as boost their Happiness. The effects are currently unknown, as they have not been programmed in yet.


The catch for Sweet Hearts, however, was that they could not be purchased directly. Instead, users must gift them to each other. On the purchasing screen, a user can select a user to gift to, how many Sweet Hearts to send, and whether or not to send them anonymously. A message can also be attached. Each Sweet Heart costs 1,000 Credits to send, but they can also be paid for in 10 [[Zophan Canisters]] each.
