Super Secret Event

Super Secret Event is a Special Event in Pokémon Vortex which was held in the month of March 2016. The details of the event was not released at once and only hints were revealed on certain special days hence the naming. It was initially planned for the month of January but it could not happen due to the unfortunate Database wipe-out.

Hints Given Out

There were some hints posted the game's forums before the event.

The Super Secret Trade Counter

14th January 2016 :
A counter has appeared on the dashboard. What is it counting? Why is it counting? What is its limit? What happens when it is reached?
All valid questions with answers yet to be determined, what we will tell you is it is a community mission. The number displays the same for everyone. As the game is generally played, you will notice it increasing.

15th January 2016 :
The confusion, theories and speculations about the counter have left people scratching their heads.
Some people managed to correctly work out how to make the counter move, others refused to believe it. So what was it, you ask? It is going up for every completed trade. Well done to those of you who worked it out before it was announced.
Now, yes there are 7 digits, do not be put off by this feeling as though you have to get it to 9,999,999 or anything ridiculous. There are certain milestones to be met in order to trigger certain parts of the event - But more on that later. Want to know what Pokémon will be obtained through this event? More on that later. Looking for an easier way to trade? More on that later.

16th January 2016 :
The biggest questions thus far of this event is what Pokémon will people be able to obtain through it. WELL, that's not today's hint, sorry.

Today is all about telling you what the milestones are that need to be reached and announce there is a new way to trade on it's way that will help you reach them a lot quicker - Providing you work together. After all, this is a community thing, this is not the time to fly solo.

Here are the milestones that need to be met to trigger certain parts of the event:

  • 10,000 Trades - ???
  • 20,000 Trades - ???
  • 30,000 Trades - ???
  • 40,000 Trades - ???
  • 50,000 Trades - ???
  • 60,000 Trades - ???
  • 100,000 Trades - ???
  • 200,000 Trades - ???
  • 300,000 Trades - ???
  • 400,000 Trades - ???
  • 500,000 Trades - ???
  • 1,000,000 Trades - ???

With that said, you're half way to the first milestone without the new trade method so that's great. I didn't expect it to go that high just yet. Well done to the rapid traders of the community.

18th January 2016 :
Sorry about the time delay on update 4 but here it is - Probably what you have all `really` wanted to know, that's the Pokémon you may be able to win from this event. Well, it's not that simple, there are two, so here's one of them: VIVILLON (POKEBALL)!

Vivillon (Pokeball)

How do you get it? You ask. The event details themselves will be announced once it is released. For now you all just worry about getting those trades up.

9th March 2016 :
As you may have noticed, the trade counter also displays how many trades you, yourself have completed. This is because you will need a certain amount for each milestone in order to be able to take part in the next milestone and get that specific Pokémon. Here are your personal milestones and the Pokémon you can obtain by hitting them:

  • 100 Trades - Vivillon (Pokeball)
