****ASB SECRET SANTA***
It's dark and cold on this snowy winter night, but just up ahead, you spot a light far off in the distance. A town! You yell a few words of encouragement to the Stantler and Sawsbuck pulling your sled, promising them a treat when they reach the next town. The moment you say the word "treat," the Pokemon are racing at top speed, turning the snowy forest landscape surrounding you into a blur of white. After some time, you pull into the quaint little village of Snowwhatever. It's late, late into the night, but there are brilliant decorations of red and green everywhere: lights on the homes of the towns, ribbons on the Pokemon Center and Market, and even little cut-outs of Delibirds and Sawbucks propped up on front lawns. One of them is even moving! One of them fancy electrical gizmos.
When you reach the plaza your gaze is dawn to the giant Christmas tree covered in golden ribbons, its bright colorful lights illuminating the moonless night. You see, to your surprise, two familiar faces singing under the tree.
"Togekisses we have heeeeeard on hiiiiiigh,"
"Sweetly Hyper Voicing o'er the plaaains."
You ask them why they're up at this ungodly hour.
"Seep is for the weak."
"Toon meant sleep, not seep - blame ZhengTann using the wrong spelling all the time."
That's true, you suppose - wait, and who is this ZhengTann? Never mind, you're about to ask them the more pertinent questions, like why they're in this little town in the middle of nowhere, but the sound of chiming bells interrupts your attempts to point out the plot holes of this story.
*ring* *ring* *ring*
"Look, Toonie! It's Christmas now!"
"Merry Christmas, ooraloo! I brought you a present."
"You're giving me a Mew?! That's so sweet of you! Well, I got something for you too. It's right here~"
*rustle* *rustle*
"Why is it moving?"
"Let me out of here!"
You are somewhat concerned by this, so you hastily open the box before ooraloo can stop you.
"Oh, thank Arceus. I've been in there for a week!" *runs away*
You are very weirded out by this, so you turn to leave, but the two of them shout:
"Wait, we have presents for you too! All of ASB is having a Secret Santa! Here are the rules:"

"Wait, we have presents for you too! All of ASB is having a Secret Santa! Here are the rules:"
- Players sign up in this thread and have until December 24 to PM ooraloo a Pokemon that they own to be given away and finalize all claims regarding that Pokemon.
- Pokemon must be fully evolved and have at least 40 moves.
- On December 25, random.org will be used to hand out the Pokemon to the eligible participants.
"See you all on the 25th! Merry Christmas!"
