Pokemon BrainStrain v.16

[Shadow Wolf]

That's OK. Let's try Carvanha

[Knight of Time]

You're on the right track.

Carvanha: Car*

[Shadow Wolf]

Speaking of tracks, I wonder if this is the Carkol we usually find in the mining tracks of Sword and Shield?

[Knight of Time]

You got it, Louis! The Carkol figurine is yours.

'hands it to you'

Go for it.

[Shadow Wolf]

Thank you so much Kyle. The collection is growing at a nice pace.

Now the word "Fail" conveys a grim feeling, but the first letter of that word conveys quite the opposite: success for this BrainStrain.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I'll start this one off with Flygon.

[Shadow Wolf]

Not a bad start by any means:

Flygon: Fl*

[Knight of Time]

I'll try Flapple.

[Shadow Wolf]

This should be easy now, right?

Flapple: Fla???e

[Knight of Time]

It's Flabébé. What color's the flower, though?

[Shadow Wolf]

That's right Kyle. This one prefers to be on an orange flower, so congrats on the figurine.

*Gives figurine*

Funny how I found myself in the opposite side of the guessing pattern (in the previous version I gave a Flapple figurine while someone guessed Flabébé right before). But I'm glad everything worked out for both. Anyway, take it away Kyle.

[Knight of Time]

Thanks Louis, and sorry for the delay guys.

Anyway, the letter that comes before the kind of special moves (e.g. Inferno Overdrive and 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt) only usable in Pokemon Sun/Moon/Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon begins this one.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Alright, if I got this right, it's letter Z.

I'll attack boldly yelling 'En garde!' with a Legendary guess of Zygarde!

[Knight of Time]

Zygarde: Z*

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Hmm, it can still be Zapdos?

[Knight of Time]

You're pretty bold in the face of lightning my Finnish friend. That is because you have won a Zapdos figurine!

'hands it to you'

As you know, you can choose its form, so which one do you want? Either way, go for it!

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I'll take the regular, Kanto Zapdos.

Meanwhile, M starts this one.

[Shadow Wolf]

Nice, let's start with Magearna.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Magearna: Ma*

[Knight of Time]

I'll try Marshadow.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Marshadow: Mar*

[Knight of Time]

Looks like two possibilities are left. I'll try Maractus.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Maractus: Mar*

[Knight of Time]

I believe it must be Marill.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Yes, but there's more. It's a Dynamaxed Marill. Congratulations Congratulations! Here you are!

[Knight of Time]

Cool, thanks Mikachu! I'll just use my handy Titan's Mitt to move that aside for the next puzzle, which begins with an H.

[Shadow Wolf]

OK, let's start with Hoothoot

[Knight of Time]

Hoothoot: H*

BTW Mikachu, I noticed you've got a spare Zweilous. You want to trade it for my spare Grovyle?

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Of course you can have the spare Zweilous. Thank you for the Grovyle figurine!

As for this puzzle, I'll try Hydreigon.

[Shadow Wolf]

I'll follow with Heliolisk

[Knight of Time]

Thank you Mikachu. BTW, one of you won.

Who did? It was...

(Spoiler:) Mikachu, with his correct guess of Hydreigon! Better luck next time Louis.

'hands over the Hydreigon figurine to Mikachu'

Go for it.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Yesss! Thanks.

I present the initial letter of this Pokemon, it's the same as the first personal pronoun in English, (Spoiler:) I.

[Knight of Time]

Gonna try Incineroar first.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Incineroar: In???e*

[Knight of Time]

Looks like I'm going from guessing one fully evolved starter Pokemon to another...it has to be Inteleon.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Correct, Knight of Time, it is Inteleon indeed. But there's more, it's a Dynamaxed Inteleon to be exact!

Congratulations. That was intelligent.

Your turn.

[Knight of Time]

Wow...I am speechless.

Two consecutive Dynamax figurines, both of which are coincidentally Water types. Thanks Mikachu, once again my Titan's Mitt will help me move this one out of the way.

Okay, a consonant begins this one. What consonant you ask? If a certain flying insect comes along and you do something that causes it to sting you and die without its stinger, you'll know, because it has the same pronunciation as this particular insect.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

You mean B?

Bellsprout is my first guess.

[Knight of Time]

You're off to a pretty good start.

Bellsprout: B?l*

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

How about Baltoy?
