We're giving away Pokémon Merch-a-plenty this December in our annual Holiday Contests

The holiday season is once again upon us, and it's past time that we here at Bulbagarden got the ball rolling with our annual Holiday Contests!

This year, we have a total of three separate contests running over the holiday period, with over $2,250 USD worth of prizes up for grabs.

This year's contests are...

• 12 Days of Trivia: Our classic trivia contest, featuring 12 days worth of tricky trivia to test your knowledge of the Pokémon franchise (or at the very least, your ability to search for things on Bulbapedia).
  • This year's 12 questions will be posted up for you to puzzle over in the Bulbagarden Forums thread linked above on Tuesday December 12th. Entries will close on Sunday December 24th at 11:59pm (PST).
• Fantabulous Festivities – Corsola's Creative Holiday Challenge: To all you creative types out there, we've got a holiday themed challenge for you to pour your holiday spirit into, in collaboration with the team behind Corsola Cove, which you can now find hosted here on the Bulbagarden Forums!
  • You can start working on your entries immediately! The entry form for the Creative Holiday Challenge will be available later this month via the Bulbagarden Forums thread linked above, with entries closing on Saturday December 31st at 11:59pm (PST).
• Rapidash Trivia: A battle of wits and speed as you test your knowledge of the Pokémon franchise in a real time contest where only the fastest will win! You can either win a round to win an instant prize, or collect points with every round to claim a prize at the top of our leaderboard.
  • Rapidash Trivia in 2023 will be run over 20 rounds on the Bulbagarden Discord server. This year, we'll be doing two batches of rounds of Rapidash Trivia. The first set of 12 rounds will begin on Saturday December 16th at 6:00am (PST), with subsequent rounds following at 6 hour intervals. The second set of 8 rounds will begin on Thursday December 28th at 6:00pm (PST), with rounds again following at 6 hour intervals until the final round starts on Saturday December 30th at midday (PST). See the Bulbagarden Forums thread linked above for more details, including round times converted to several common timezones.

All prize winners this year will each receive a Pokémon Center Gift Card to the value of $60 USD (for winners in the United States), or an equivalent value in readily available Pokémon merchandise (for winners in other countries).

If you have any questions regarding any of these contests, please direct these either to the appropriate forums thread for that contest (linked above), or to the #bulbamas2023 channel on our Discord. An FAQ for more general questions can be found here.

Best of luck to everyone, and may the biggest Poké Fans win!

Happy holidays, everyone!

 

Cool. I've always liked these contests, especially the wikipedia trivia ones.
