Holiday Cave

Link to PMU Forums Event guide thread.

Events are something that occur commemorating an occasion, such as a holiday. These events usually involve a dungeon, unlike weekly events.

2009
PMU 6 was running at this time.

PMU Comemoration Event
9/01/10-9/08/10 Pokémon: Tepig, Oshawott, Snivy Items: Ivy Ring, Warmth Orb, Lucky Shell Floors: None- No Boss Info: This event was made in the celebration of the release of PMU 7. To get the Pokémon, you had to talk to a Chansey to get an egg. After a while, it hatched into a fifth generation starter. The egg then transformed into an item that helps the Pokémon specified with it to heal it when hit with a Fire (for Snivy), Water (for Tepig), or Grass (for Oshawott). Along with the egg, you would also get a family item for that starter.

She will ask if you want to trade your eggs for items. The berries will be held in Nifty Boxes.

Fun Fact: This dungeon was made mostly by Kirk! Also, to hatch eggs, people had to run around in a safe zone. So for most of the event people, ran around in circles in town. While this event was going on, Quick Seeds were banned from town. Sprinko announced that he would make a 99 floor dungeon if 99 people were on (closest we got at time was 94) Articuno: Also, here is a video Wolfy made of the Eggstravaganza.

Fun Fact: The fourth dungeon that was added - called "Hallowed Well" - was a 99 floor dungeon with no Pokémon that were able to be recruited, but rare items were in it. The prize of the dungeon was a Max Revive. During the floors 60F-85F, the darkness was pitch black, meaning that Pokémon and items were unable to be seen. Also, during that time, Darkrai was released in town as an illusion for a couple days.

April Fools


Pokémon: N/A

Items: N/A

Info: For this event, for that day only, everyone's sprite was itemized.

Easter Event
4/1/12-4/15/12 Pokémon: Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Venusaur, Pichu, Pikachu, Raichu, Torchic, Combusken, Togepi, Togetic, Happiny, Chansey, Starly, Shroomish, Lopunny (All Not Able to Recruit) Items: Eggs (Hatched: Pichu, Happiny, Bulbasuar, Starly, Zigzagoon, Eevee, Torchic, Riolu, Ralts, Munchlax, Vulpix, Togepi, Growlithe, Sewaddle, Cottonee, Scyther, Spinda, and Partner Eggs) Floors: 50F- No Boss Info: This dungeon had no recruitable Pokémon. However, this event had eggs in it. The higher floors (41F+) enabled you to randomly get you or your partner's base evolution through an egg. In a way, this dungeon had the most Pokémon available because of that factor.

Fun Fact: There was a bug that if you entered the floor with an escort Pokémon, there was a chance you could get the base evolution of that. That caused the mission board to be deactivated for most of the dungeon.

Summer Event

The staff members wanted the Summer Event to be a bunch of Community Planned events with little to no intervention of the higher ups. However this left most players dissatisfied and the staff ended up opening the same dungeon as last year except with Squirtle added and Recruit Rates boosted.

Halloween Event
10/26/12-11/13/12 Pokémon: Phantom Forest: Zorua, Ekans, Skorupi, Shinx Abandoned Basement: Cubone, Gastly, Duskull, Stunky, Porygon, Eevee, Charmander Abandoned Mansion/Attic: Litwick, Smeargle, Meowth, Shuppet, Cleffa, Eevee, Murkrow, Mime Jr. Items: Dusk Stone, Reaper Cloth, X-Ray Specs, Y-Ray Specs, Mystery Hats, Skitty Hat, Pika Hat, Turtwig Mask, Piplup Mask, Chimchar Mask, TM Snarl, TM Shadow Ball, TM Shadow Claw, TM Sludge Bomb, TM Dream Eater, TM Embargo, No-Stick Cap, Rare Bone, Leftovers, Poison Dust, Dark Dust, Shady Dust, Old Gateau, Spirit Band, Toxic Orb, Revival Herb, Max Revive, Revive, Two-Edge Orb, Cleanse Orb, Luminous Orb, Slip Cap, TM Hone Claws Floors: Phantom Forest: 7F- No Boss Abandoned Basement: 35F- Rotom Abandoned Mansion: 35-No Boss Abandoned Attic: 15F- Chandelure, six Lampent, three Litwick Info: It was released to celebrate the upcoming Halloween Day for everyone. As for all Holiday Caves, it was a set level dungeon with no items. The amount of Pokémon you could bring was unrestricted. After Phantom Forest, there was a break that you could see that players referred to as "PokéHallow Square". It included a Cubone that healed your Pokémon and a choice of which dungeon you wanted. This year, however, this place was more complex and you could enter Phantom Forest again.

Fun Fact: This dungeon was similar to last year's Halloween HC. The exception was that they added a few new Pokémon and boosted the Recruit Rate of some rare Pokémon.

In PokéHallow Square, if you go to the southeast and you press enter in front of a statue, a message saying "You shouldn't have done that" appeared. Then, if you press enter in front of another statue, a Honchkrow apeared, telling you about the respective tombstone. In the first (near to Phantom Forest), Honchkrow didnt appear, but in its place was a Ralts, mysteriously appearing and disappearing.

As with every Easter Event, there were "Partner Eggs" available, which allowed players who crossed floor 31 to hatch an egg of the base evolution of their Team Member. Fun Fact: With everyone running around hatching eggs, players who used Speed Boost created severe lag.

Note: This list is constantly updated. Only event items are listed, but there are several other items (Poké, Apples, Berries, and other common items). This is the same for Pokémon in these events, which may be updated later.
