What the heck. I just completed my Alola Pokedex a few days ago, and still had no idea this was going on.

I feel like I just got a call telling me I lost a basketball game while I was at home eating pretzels.

I....did not know Sun and Moon even HAD global events until now...

edit: You and me both buddy....

Well, that's what I'm here for, serving the greater VGChartz community!

Nope, you have to sync the acconunt with the Global Link, then talk to the girl to the right inside your Festival Plaza Castle (don't know the english name of the building) which will inform you of the current running event and ask you if you're interested in joining it, after doing that you have to come back to the same girl once in a while so that your "points" for the goal can be saved online, during the first event I was in my intense breeding period and was starving for 3ivs Pokémon/good nautres/good abilities but since I didn't know about needing to sync the account and all the other stuff I only had something like 300 Pokémon caught for the event when before the sync I probably caught more than double only by eggs...

You're doing the fine work sir!

That is so convoluted literally only Nintendo and Gamefreak could come with it. I can barely make the regular festival tickets work for me. And this comes after X/Y wich threw online matches at you almost from the get go constantly and seemingly at random.

Was there another event? They should inform players better.

They can't without the PSS.

Rotom not only is a b***h when you want to check the map because he keeps moving randomly instead of showing the map of the region: it also made online overall far less quick and easy...

Nobody cares about this Nintendo...just let us play the game. Quit turning everything into a senseless event.

It seems like this isn't really working.

I didn't even know there was a 2nd event either... They really outta promote these things better.
