Note: Contest Legends are repeatable, but do not have any scaling.

Repeat Legends for Professions and Sections

You may earn multiple legends through the same profession. After receiving your first legend, subsequent milestones will increase by 50% of the base value. These increases will be capped after two, so a Legendary milestone will never increase past 200% of the base value.
Note that only repeat legends scale per tier and per section. Even if you get several Tier 2 legends in one section, your first Tier 1 through that section will still cost the same as it would if it was your first legend. (e.g. you claim 2 tier 2 art legends for 250k and 375k. Your next tier 2 would cost 500k, as would your first tier 1.)

Tier 1 Scaling

For a Creative (Park/Ranger, Stories/Grader, Art/Curator) legend:
1st Tier 1 Legendary: $500,000 / $500,000 total
2nd Tier 1 Legendary: $750,000 / $1,250,000 total
3rd Tier 1 Legendary: $1,000,000 / $2,250,000 total
All further Tier 1 Legendaries: $1,000,000

For a Reffing/Judging legend:
1st Tier 1 Legendary: $1,000,000 / $1,000,000 total
2nd Tier 1 Legendary: $1,500,000 / $2,500,000 total
3rd Tier 1 Legendary: $2,000,000 / $4,500,000 total
All further Tier 1 Legendaries: $2,000,000

Tier 2 Scaling

All further Tier 2 Legendaries: $1,000,000

How to Track This:

It’s highly suggested to make a thread or separate post in your stats to track your earnings in each area, much like people already do for their wages in each profession. This is exactly like that, with a couple things to keep in mind:

• Progress is be tracked the same for both tiers as one “pool”. When you claim a legend of a certain tier, it removes from that pool.
  Example: I get to $1,000,000 in referee wages without claiming a legend. I decide I want a Tier 2 legend. $500,000 is spent from my referee legend tracker pool, leaving a leftover $500,000 that I can contribute toward whatever legend I choose next. If I claimed a Tier 1, the whole $1,000,000 would be spent.
• Tracking posts should display each amount earned; for example, if someone earned 40k in their next reffing wages, then 30k after, they would list both of them independently. If someone drew 3 pictures, they would make an entry for each one individually. Feel free to add total/subtotal values somewhere, but Staff wants to see the individual amounts too.
• You can keep track of totals in your profession log if you want as long as you include wage links and note when tracking for Legends starts.
• All amounts must have a link. No exceptions. They don’t count if you don’t have a link.
  • For Contests, all ribbons must have links. They also must have been earned by you; this means that ribbons on traded Pokemon will not count if you didn’t win them.
• Stories and Art have to pass to count.
• Both capture and cash submissions for Art and Stories count. Sketchbooks and Story Journals will also count towards your tracker, including streaks. Capture attempts will use the same money value scale for ranks as cash does for tracking purposes. If a story is a capture attempt and features multiple Pokemon, they each count separately. For example, if I write a capture story with two Medium Pokemon, I get to count 30k toward my Legend total (15+15), etc. Capture attempts will use the same scale as cash attempts:
  • Easiest – $4,000
  • Simple – $7,500
  • Medium – $15,000
  • Hard – $25,000
  • Complex – $35,000
  • Demanding – $47,500
  • Merciless – $60,000
  • Stupefying – $70,000
• To make it easier to count, it might be a good idea to put character count in your Park posts.

Extras:

• To obtain your Legend, post in the Legend Log thread here with a link to your tracking post so we can approve and add you to the list.
• This method is not buying! You do not have to save the money earned from these endeavors. This is a tracking thread for participation within each section and just a nice little bonus rewarding lots of activity.
• These permanent Legends do not come with free EMs. ANY Temporary Legends will always come with 10 free Temporary EMs for use with that legend, and will disappear when it disappears.
• Any EMs purchased for Temporary Legends (such as those used during Legendary Ascension) will transfer to a permanent Legend of the same kind when obtained. This should be tracked and shown when claiming the EMs as you claim the legend.
• No, Legends are still not allowed on regular gym lineups.
