Title: Event

I'm not sure if this has been added or is under consideration, but will there be a bug catching contest, or lottery contest like the ones introduced for the original gold and silver. Like in gold/silver you could go out on a certain time and day to the mall to try for the lottery that is won through your Pokemon trainer I.D number. Also for the bug catching contest you just have to catch a big bug in a certain amount of time or until you catch one. The prize for this was sun stone. This can also be a fishing contest guideline.
I would also like to know if the safari zone would be used for events like this. A contest that allows trainers to catch Pokemon, and win some prizes. It could be catch the biggest, fastest or strongest Pokemon in the safari.
If this has been asked before, or suggested, sorry about this and please lock it.

There will be a lot of contests implemented as we develop the game. So I'm sure you can count on these ideas, of which you speak, to be implemented.

Just note that it won't be soon.

Cool I'm just saying that only having players walk around and enter only those beauty contest would be boring after a while.

HEY HEY!
You're leaving out Cool, Tough, Smart and Cute. That's simply not okay.

Besides... if you get bored you could always try to win the Pokemon League or beat the Brutal 5.

I just thought of this is there a way to program a walking Pokemon like in yellow so that if there is a event and you win you can have a Pokemon of your choice to follow you?
This is off-topic sorry: But how about donators get this as a reward?

Pokemon already follow you (we just have to pull a switch)

We do not want to earn money on this game - it is completely free, so donations is not an option.

If the Pokémon have generated values such as Height, Weight etc. then I am all in for Contests.

I think there can be something generated from the IVs of a pokemon to determine the weight and height of a pokemon (with full 31 IVs giving biggest and highest maybe?).

Isn't that type of info shown in the Pokedex? You know when you first catch a Pokemon you get their general species info the their cry, location, foot print, and height + weight.

Those values are static.

 Well yes, but it could be done that when you enter a Contest, the Pokémon you catch will not be trainable and you will only be able to catch them inside the Contest.

For example: Fishing contest

 A Player catches a Magikarp with Height 45, and Weight 67. These don't have to be realistic, just a way to determine a winner. It turns out that the highest is Height 56 and Weight 120 Magikarp in the area, called by Big Bully by some. If you catch Big Bully (very rare) you win the contest. If nobody catches Big Bully, after a set amount of time the winner is determined by having the highest stats on Magikarp available. It could add a sort of challange to have a Height 55 and a Weight 30 Magikarp. Although one of the biggest Magikarps in Height, it's really a Starved Magikarp since 30 is below average in Weight.

 Once the Contest is over, you release all of your caught Pokémon and go on with your lives. Going back to the same area and trying to catch Big Bully would not work either, since these generated stat value Pokémon are only catchable during the Contest.

 Maybe have a locked down Building in that area with a fenced or other type of locked backyard, safe zone or the like only accessable during the Contest. Just a few ideas.

That would be possible.

Reminds me a little of Seaking Catching Day.
