Today I didn't go out for Pokémon much as it was quite rainy all day long and I had plenty of rain during the Cyndaquil Community Day the other day. When it was close to our usual meetup time to take over one of the Gyms I looked outside and saw that it had stopped raining. So I decided to head outside and go there. Right when I got there it started raining again. Luckily it didn't rain for long, after we took over the Gym and talked for a bit it almost stopped raining.
I decided to go walk around a bit more then, hoping it stopped raining for a while. As I didn't check many of the nearby Pokéstops yet for their daily quest. When I walked around for them I suddenly noticed an Alolan Exeggutor at a nearby Pokéstop, one where I was still headed to! It had been quite some time since I saw one wild, so it was a great sight. It 280 CP so it was easy to catch.
Then I walked to the local park to spin. When I was done walking through the local park I wanted to take one of the other exits near the last Pokéstop, to head back home. But then I saw an Alolan Geodude had spawned near the parking lot from the entrance I went in. So I decided to go back there first and catch that one.
With this small detour I decided to head back home now. As it was most likely going to rain again. When I was almost home I saw someone I know, so we talked for a bit. He also caught that Alolan Exeggutor and I talked to him about trading it. Which he wanted to do. I told him I still had a few Alolan Exeggutor that I caught in Albania back in July. Which would have a higher chance to become Lucky if I traded that one for the one he just caught. We'd also get some extra distance traded for the medal.
It was a good call! Because it indeed became a Lucky Alolan Exeggutor after the trade! Which we both didn't have yet!
Since Exeggutor and Alolan Exeggutor share the same Pokédex number, I was curious to look at it due to the Lucky Alolan Exeggutor. I already had a Lucky Exeggcute, which I still have and didn't evolve. So I never had a Lucky Exeggutor yet. When I looked in the Pokédex it displayed a Lucky background behind Exeggutor though!
I was thinking it could be dependant on the form. Turns out it isn't, as both Exeggutor and Alolan Exeggutor now have the Lucky background from just getting the Alolan Exeggutor as Lucky.
