We recently passed 1.5 million clicks here on VRAC. But what's this? Special codes have made their appearances around Victory Road, and they won't be around for long. New ones will pop up every few days, so keep your eyes peeled and search for those special legendary pet codes and those for past promotions!

Oh, and don't forget to post here once you find a code, but don't say the code itself or where it is.

I found a Victini. I already had one from when I helped with VictoryBattles two years ago, but I don't care because Victini is awesome!

They're hidden in certain posts and places around the forum. You need to look carefully.

It's like a library scavenger hunt, except it's in a rather large library...

Good luck...

EDIT: I'm a little confused here. I (kinda) get what I'm looking for here, but where am I looking for it? You're just throwing me out into the forum telling me to find codes. Are they in posts, or thread titles, or even on VRAC?

Maybe, maybe not. The idea is to look everywhere. I'm going to post a bunch more codes later tonight, and I'll give hints for the ones that weren't found when I return.

All codes have the form of AAA-0000000.

Anyway, new codes have been hidden! Get hunting for 'em. Those should keep you folks busy for a while.

I'd love to find those but I haven't found any of them yet. I feel like I've been thrown into a shiny hunt, because I just can't get anything. Other than the ones that were literally thrown in front of me (which weren't the ones I wanted to adopt), I have no idea where anything is. I've tried the recent threads, as well as ones that would be appropriate for the specific Pokemon, but nothing's working. It just feels frustrating trying to find these codes now...

The ones I found haven't had much to do with the forums, just clicking random links on pages.

Hehehe, keep looking. And yes, there is one that hasn't been found yet.

For those wondering, it'll probably last for most of the month, but the legends will be harder to find once I remove these ones.

Alrighty, congrats to everyone who found the pets so far!

Here's where they were hidden.
Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit: Quote the first post of this thread.
Victini: The nickname for the Victini I adopted.
Latias and Latios: Bottom of the rules.
Terrakion: My post explaining the format of the codes.
Virizion: The edit reason for the aforementioned post.
Cobalion: The edit reason for the first post of this thread.
Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde: New FAQ entry.
Manaphy: My visitor messages.
Phione: Originally my visitor messages, moved to a new social group name.

Still available:
Zorua: This one is easy enough to find. I won't give you any hints because it's not rare and won't be removed for a while.
Keldeo: Act like a computer nerd.

I'll add some new codes soon.

You don't think I'd try that twice, would you?

I get the feeling that this will be something that Regex is no help whatsoever with . . .

Hey! Stop looking here. There aren't any pets hidden in my post any more. Or in plain sight. The last code is hidden in a place where you wouldn't seek.

Hehe, nobody has found it yet. I believe only a single person actually has this pet, too, and it was grandfathered in from our original adoption system back in 2009.

Well, it's now the start of September, and as nobody has found it, I have removed the last special pet. MissingNo.'s code was hiding on the "Pet Not Found" page if attempting to view an invalid pet ID.

Congratulations to everyone who did find a special pet throughout the event!

I guess you win. Enjoy one final prize: whoops, it's gone.

I refuse to believe that I possess the one single Missingno. in existence. Seriously? (For clarification this is NOT a Missingno. received through this event, I had this since the transfer from the old system)

My belief is incorrect. *runs a database query* Huh, there are eleven that are owned by individuals. Three were imported from the original Floatzel Pokédoptables, seven were imported from VictoryBattles, and exactly one was obtained from this event.

Nope, you got it in 2009. November 21, 2010 is the date Freeze transferred it to VictoryBattles. The original system had no dates in the database, although given your pet's ID (-4), it was one of the first adopted. (For those who don't know or remember, the ID numbers for the original system were simply made negative to allow compatibility with the existing VB pets.)
