What is your top priority catch during December CDay?
I would prioritize Pikachu, Dratini and Charmander as I missed all three CDays, and Shiny Bulbasaur and Chikorita.

Beldum, of course! MM Metagross is simply OP.
Larvitar candy is easy to earn from raids.
I missed Pikachu, Eevee, Chikorita and Cyndaquil, but they are less useful. That I already had a few hundred Dratini candy somewhat compensates for my Dratini day that was ruined by server issues.
Hope my perfect Venusaur with Solar Beam will get to learn Frenzy Plant via CTM.
I only started on Charmander CD.
I have 8 MM Metagross (40,40,35,34,34,34, Shiny 34, Shiny 30).
6 SD TTars (40, 36, 30, 30, 30, Shiny 30)
4 BB Charizard (32, 32, shiny 31, 30, 30, and traded one to my GF since she missed the day).
8 Typhlosion (3 Shiny, and 4 at level 30).
Only have 1 Shiny Meganium as I was on vacation at that time
Loads of Eevees but didn't evolve many. Got plenty of Shiny though.
So I will prioritize:
1. DRATINI. I only have 2 dragonites and neither is maxed (as well as no Rayquaza or Salamence). I'm really hoping to get some high level lucky dratini, although I do already have a lucky dratini as well. Definitely want to bring that up to 6 Dragonites with at least 2 of them maxed out.
2. Bulbasaur. I randomly found a high level strong shiny Bulbasaur in the wild and have been desperately hoping to get enough candy to evolve it. Now seeing that I'll be able to get the exclusive move on it too? Lovely! Will only be a priority until I evolve that one at least, since FP Venusaur won't be top-tier after Sceptile (will go for 2-3 total at lower priority after the first).
3. Larvitar. I don't need any more smackdowns (but would love to get some level 33-35's with weather boost if we stop with the windy/snowy weather) and would evolve some luckies if I got the candy. Stardust sink on all those level 30s is way too high. Also have to power up the B/Cr Tyranitars. Have spent way too much stardust on Ttars so far, but they're useful.
4. Beldum - hoping against hope to find a better Shiny as all my shiny on CD were low IVs (so I just evolved the two highest levels). Caught 9 shiny in the last 15min with all under 200CP. Hoping to find a good one.
5. Will be shiny-checking Mareep since I don't have one (and will catch enough to evolve the shiny as well, then stop with them). I've randomly found a shiny Pikachu this week so don't need to shiny check those. Also mentioned the shiny Bulbasaur, and will be catching every dratini regardless. Probably won't touch Charmander/Cyndaquil/Meganium/Squirtle/Pikachu - they don't seem worth a ball when I'm bound to run out. Will probably also only try to evolve 2 or 3 Venusaur.
Unfortunately I won't be able to play crazy for that event, but since it is a whole weekend I still have a chance to catch up on what I missed.
So I missed past CD for Charmander, Pikachu,Dratini,Cyndaquil and Dratini. I have candies for them so the idea would be more to find the shiny form (got some through trading but still need) and evolve 1 or 2 good candidate to get special moves, especially for Charizard and Dragonite. Got to check the stats of what I currently have.
I couldn't play so much either on Larvitar day, back then I just evolved but couldn't farm. so will definitely try to get more candies for that one so that I can power up what I have and maybe evolve one more with the move.
I also played partially on evee CD, so I'll try to get more of the shiny forms for the different evolutions but no huge priority.
I have no particular need on Bulbazaur, Squirtle, Mareep and Chikorita as I already got shiny and special moves. Will just evolve if I get anything with better stats than I have currently. As for Beldum, I could evolve one or 2 more to have a full competitive team of 6 if I get an interesting candidate.
Priority: Evolving all the good Beldums, Larvitars and a few others I've gotten since their CDs. Trading has really changed things and made it much easier to acquire good IV copies if you have a lot of tradeables and a Best Friend.
Priority for catching: Stardust, no need for more candy or shinies, but I'll pinap the rares anyway, maybe I'll want to evolve more shinies with exclusive moves for future trading.
