This is such a fun event hosted by Read At Midnight

First off the challenge requires you to pick one of your Pokeman to play during the readathon. I picked my Pidgey so that means I will start with CP10 since he has the capacity to evolve.

Pidgeot

Pokemon

Type: Flying, Normal

Weakness: Electric, Ice, Rock

Evolves from: Pidgeotto

Pidgey, Pidgeotto to pidgeot !

Here is how your Pokeman helps with the readathon:

Extra Points & Fun

The main challenge is to read those eight books in the 3 weeks. However, you can also have ONE POKEMON EACH and use them to keep scores and figure out who’s the very best.

Each participant can choose one Pokemon, and will start with i) 10CP (Combat Power) for a Pokemon that can evolve OR ii) 50CP for a Pokemon that cannot evolved e.g. Lapras.

For each 10 pages they read during the challenge, their Pokemon will gain +1CP. That’s +10CP per 100 pages!

For each gym badge/book completed, they will gain an extra +20CP.

For each review you post of a book you read during the Read-a-Thon period, gain an extra +20CP.

Each time you tweet under the hashtag #ReadThemAllThon on Twitter, gain +2CP.

Each time you post a photo of your book + a Pokemon (via Pokemon Go camera function) under the hashtag#ReadThemAllThon on Twitter, gain +5CP.

When you are 150CP, your Pokemon can evolve, earning you gain an extra +50CP.

If your Pokemon has a third evolutionary form, it can evolve again at 400CP and gain you an extra +50CP.IfExtra Points & Fun

For those who are confused with all the numbers, like myself, please use this example picture to guide you.

you choose a Magikarp, you can’t evolve until you get to 450CP, but you will gain an extra +120CP when you have a Gyarados.

Basically, if you think you can read loads of books, choose a Magikarp.Whoever owns the Pokemon with the highest CP in the end, wins the title of Pokemon League Champion and will earn a prize (to be announced), as well as bragging rights.

Next here are the categories I will be reading during the event

The Challenge/Gyms

There are 8 reading challenges within this read-a-thon, based on the 8 gyms that are in the Indigo League. Earn a badge every time you complete a book!

Pewter Gym: The First Book In A Series
This Rock-type gym is the first gym Ash and the Pokemon player ever encounters. Finish this challenge to win a Boulder Badge.
Cerulean Gym: A Book That Might Make You CryThis Water-type gym has a badge that looks like a droplet of your tear, so read a book that will rip your heart out. Finish this challenge to win a Cascade Badge.
Vermillion Gym: A Book With Thunderous HypeVermillion City is the home to Lt. Surge and his many Electric-type Pokemon. For this challenge, read a book that’s been hyped all over bestseller’s list and the internet. Finish this challenge to win a Thunder Badge.
Celadon Gym: A Book That Focuses on DiversityCeladon Gym is one of my favourites, because of it’s colourful Grass-type aesthetics. Read a diverse book and you will earn yourself a Rainbow Badge.
Fuschia Gym: A Book With A Great RomanceI’ve always been confused by the fact that a Poison-type gym has a heart-shaped badge. Can someone explain please. Read a book that features romance prominently and earn a Soul Badge.
Saffron Gym: A Book With Fantasy/Supenatural ElementsSaffron City is where all the Psychic-types hang out, so for this challenge, read a bool with fantasy, magical realism, or paranormal elements. Finish this challenge to win a Marsh Badge.
