Bulbasaur's Jump Rope Contest Archive
Archive of the April 2026 contest. The official Italian announcement gives April 19 at 5:00 a.m. to April 27 at 4:59 a.m., local time; summary calendars often label it April 19-26. The original window has ended. This page records that event and does not announce a rerun.
Quick answer
The original contest required completing Yawn up a storm! in Withered Wasteland. During its window, speak to Bulbasaur in front of a Pokemon Center and aim for consecutive jumps. Ordinary Jump Rope has a different reward record.
Original entry requirements
- Check the exact event announcement; the April contest is archived.
- Complete Yawn up a storm! in Withered Wasteland.
- Check who receives prizes in the chosen multiplayer mode.
What matters before your first run
The official event rules separate participation from prizes. In a player world, visitors could join, including in spectator mode, but only the host received prizes. On a Cloud Island, only the player who set the island's high score received prizes. Choose the session with the intended recipient in mind.
- Use solo if you want cleaner timing and fewer variables.
- Use multiplayer if your group wants faster repeated attempts.
How to structure a session
Do not grind this event blind for an hour straight. Check your first few attempts for timing drift, identify where the misses happen, and only then settle into a longer run. Players searching for this event are usually trying to secure milestone rewards first, not chase perfect score immediately.
- Treat your first 3 to 5 attempts as calibration.
- Lock in milestone rewards before trying for style points.

Common blockers
- The event is not on my board
- The original April window has ended. Its absence today does not establish a bug. For a later contest, first verify a new announcement and its own entry requirements.
- Multiplayer timing feels inconsistent
- Swap one test run into solo. If solo feels cleaner, your issue is session noise rather than misunderstanding the pattern.
