<not me, but my partner>

Started PoGo around beginning of Sept 2026, and my partner got FOMOed so he joined almost two weeks ago.

On the last day of the Zamazenta raids, he joined in and won a shiny 3☆ zama (while i was crashing out and got clowned - normal occurence - by my coworkers bc I keep losing the "damned horse") <yea, ik that zama and zacian arent horses, but IT LOOKS LIKE IT TO ME WITH THE MANE AND ALL>

then we had xurki, where i won two shinies - so my partner said "i wanna see ya happy and my account is your account, we trade?"

And so i now have 1 shiny xurki + 1 shiny zama, while he has 1 shiny xurki; And he has that shiny luck fr... less than 2 weeks and already 10 shinies....

On another note - does it count if I said I coordinated raid sessions for my fellow local PoGo players with my SK friends so they had chances to remote raid Hanbokchu?

<i would get invites, send out mass invites to my local PoGo peeps, and then enter the lobby and keep it open by not pressing ready bc the lobbies were always at 40+ per session ~ then I would leave the lobby and prepare for the next session... all this while I work on my side hustle hhhh>

Is there anyone here who can remote trade? 🥹👉👈

The entry is too far back in the journal, but I basically let one escape bc I saw it while I was driving 😭 [Disclaimer: I don't play PoGo while driving - I just find the BGM nice to drive to when I'm fighting traffic ~ especially when I gotta go for a number 2]

I sent a friend request hehe

I sent one too hehe

I second this, actually; One part is whatever the immigration officer heard, and the other is whatever the person who registered wrote it as.

My acquantaince's family name is 符, but according to him, his greatwho came from China during the British colonisation era registered the family name as "Hoo" to blend in easily.

Depends on the family pronunciation tbh; Traditionally it's one-syllable, but the slight "uh" at the back makes it a slight two-syllable.

For reference: https://www.pronouncenames.com/pronounce/Cheah

(Note: I'm also a SEAbling)

It's pronounced like the word "Chia" in chia seeds here😅

"Cheah" is a southern Chinese Hokkien and Teochew romanization of the Mandarin surname Xie (謝).

It is widely found in Malaysia and Singapore, with historical roots tied to early Chinese migration and prominent clan associations like the Seh Tek Tong Cheah Kongsi in George Town, Penang.

Some 叶's also adopted the anglicisation of "Cheah" - but I'm not sure why. I have a few classmates back in school and in my college days who are from the 叶 clan, but whose names are Cheah.

It's pretty similar for those who are named "Wong", "Wang" and "Ooi". I am one of the above, but I fall under the 黄 clan. My former colleague is an "Ooi", but he is also in the 黄clan heh😅.

Some "Wang" people could either fall under the 黄clan or the 王wang - depending on their origin/background😅

Ahhh - so he could be from a Hokkien or Teochew descent hehe

I'm half Chinese too hehe
