.. I am a little (as in totally) lost with the steps for the blake! blake! blake! announcement. I found the farmer blake and the gas mask blake earlier and located this one too but I have no idea what to do from that point. Is this a new thing?
edits I dont want to ping people who might not remember me but any information on how this works would be awesome, thank

Yeah, it isn't a new plot or anything. It's just the theme for this year's monthly battle challengers. Since like 2018 or so, we've been getting an NPC challenger and a Cash Shop challenger each month, and they tend to follow a different theme every year.
This year the theme is Blake going on expeditions to find legendary beasts, so we get a different version of Blake as the secret challenger first, then we get the Cash Shop challenger later in the month that is the beast he found in the Subeta land he visited for that month.
Also nice name. ;)
Hey Jess, been awhile, and right back at'cha with the name Laurey!
Thank you both for explaining how this works, I read the news post, looked around in here and had no clue what I needed to do, appreciate it!

ALL THE KITTIES. I hope we get an origin or beast form of a Feli.

You Won! You have defeated Recycle Beast Arturo earned 1500 EXP Points!
BQs finally done. 20/30 [edit] Oh wow... I had no been expecting this. Apparently my battlers hadn't read this map piece even my main battler... xD Gotta love finding cheap books to read to your brats~
Uncharted Land Map Piece 7 has been read to Arturo! Arturo says, "Thanks, I really enjoyed that one"
Hey! I haven't been on here much lately either so I'm glad you asked the question. I may be around a bit more now that I'm working from home for at least a few weeks.
You Won! You have defeated Crawbeast Batpod earned 3500 EXP Points! Head back to the Battle Quest headquarters to finish up this quest! Because this was level 30 you earned 3500 experience!
First time in a while xD
time. Battle Quest
[Edit] You Won! You have defeated Crithbolcan
[Edit] You've found a Hidden Opponent! Astronaut Blake challenges you to a fight in the Battle Coliseum!
GET THINGS DONE.
[Edit] You Won! You have defeated Astronaut Blake 10 times!

30/30 today! Now to finish off regular quests, beat up Space Blake the last few times to get any tomes etc he drops, and then back to achievement grinding.
You Won! You have defeated Insight You won a(n) Very Hard token to use in the battle shop! Longshot earned 1500 EXP Points! Head back to the Battle Quest headquarters to finish up this quest! Because this was level 20 you earned 1500 experience!
So it's been 30 days and my new T4 can finally battle. Didn't think he'd make it anywhere near level 20, but turns out AP is broken as hell and GotF scrolls made it easy.
Now if only I could find the time to battle the regular challengers with him. I'm in the grocery business, so I'm working way too much to even think about it right now.
Also I really need to change his name. Feels weird using one of my old battle pets' name on a new baby.
I'm in the same business... hang in there.
You Won! You have defeated Skeletal Warrior Arturo earned 1500 EXP Points!
20/30
. . . Sad Masq didn't start today.
time. Battle Quest
[Edit] You Won! You have defeated Crawbeast You won a(n) Impossible token to use in the battle shop!

I don't wanna do quests... haha
Once Masq gets here and we get our challengers then maybe just maybe.... things will pick up.

You Won! You have defeated Stage Fright Arturo earned 1500 EXP Points!
BQs finally done.... 20/30
BQs done....getting to 500EXP again...I hope we get the challengers for Masquerade...
time. Battle Quest

I miss the days when I had energy and wasn't just stumbling through quests like a sP-obsessed zombie. Hopefully when Masquerade starts I'll find a bit more brain power to actually enjoy it.
BQs are still ticking along, pet plans are ready and waiting - I'm eyeing a name due to purge relatively soon so I can do all the changing around at once.
It's kinda quiet around here right now. How are you all doing?
Yeah, I've been fussing with Guinea Pig off and on trying to repeat what a friend did with her pet, and I really should just throw books at it for more GotF brokenness. A tier 10 pet with low speed and defense might be beyond my attention span, though.
You're not supposed to brainlessly autopilot through quests?
