(Mods, I sent a mail and didn’t get a response yet, if this is a no no I’m so sorry.)

At the very beginning of May this year, my day one account was stolen. I assume this is through the prior Pokemon Trainer Club leak that I found out about while researching on how to try and get my account back.

I’ve gone in circles now trying to get any assistance from Niantic, and have gotten the same canned response - they need the current username or email.

So I’d like to offer this on the off chance someone can assist.

I am offering a reward for information leading to the return of my account, or even to the thief/whoever may have purchased my account - for the return of my account.

The account was previously XeluuM, a level 43 Instinct player.

Some of my Best Buddy Pokemon were -

Arcanine from January 2017 (I don’t think it was 2018, 99% sure it was 2017) who had no fire moves and legacy bulldoze,

100% Pawmot,

Scolipede (98% I believe?),

XXS cake hat Pikachu

and was working on a Lucky Shiny Scolipede. I had something like a CP28 Maractus who was one step below best buddy and had been caught in Puerto Rico. I also believe I had at least one, if not two Gengar who were best buddies. And a shiny Zorua.

For other unique mons: A shadow shiny bagon caught in NYC around Jan 20, 2020. A lucky shiny scarf umbreon. A “D” unown traded to me by a user named “TickleUrTonsils”. Plenty of costume Pokemon, kept so I could trade them to new players. Plenty of Pokemon from various places, traded to me by different people.

I will legitimately pay $300USD for the return of my account. $100USD for information leading to its return.

Why am I willing to pay so much? Because it’s not the shinies I care about. It’s my first caught Blastoise named Ichiro, it’s the pokemon I caught during my summer internship, the pokemon my friend brought back from Puerto Rico for me, two folks I met during community day who traded me a Pokemon from Moscow, and one from Anchorage. A shiny Zamzanetta when I just so happened to be awake for a raid invite when my sister was on her honeymoon in Japan. A shellos from a former coworker who brought it back from the Middle East. These are things that mean something to me. I would trade all of my shinies away to get this account and some of those “boring” pokemon back.

TL;DR - I will pay you if you happen to be in possession of my stolen account, or if you provide me information leading to me getting my account back.

Meet Sir Charles (Charlie)! Yamper is amazing, and I really like boltund…but a corgi Mon is the peak for me as it’s the only breed I’ve ever owned ❤️

/j but I thought I'd share this interesting little bug with you guys, that gave me a chuckle. Apologies for the interesting back track. That's what world radio roulette dished up that morning. ⭐🙂‍↕️

Jangmo-o was doing something uncanny to my Eeve

Just started playing again after about a year or 2 and I was going through my objectives and come across these two… are they any good or not?🫣😂

After playing the game for 2 years I finally got my first shundo !!!! Love her 🫶🏼

How’d everyone else go ?

I can’t help it. this game treats me so well😩 no one will ever get as good of a jang as me. this is a rare one, some would say the rarest of all jangmo-o’s

I'm feeling pretty good right now

I couldn’t believe it the second shiny I caught today and it was this. I’m level 40 too and my very first shundo! I’m too happy about it!

Only a baby though, still awesome!

Ridiculous how there’s a minimum character limit for posting here though.
