Pokemon BrainStrain v.16

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Piloswine: Pi*

[Shadow Wolf]

Let's go with Pignite.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

You got it Shadow Wolf ��

EDIT: I wonder if the emoji worked.

[Shadow Wolf]

Not sure about the emoji. I see two question marks and a green smiley, but it could be my browser.

Anyway, thank you for the figurine and this one is up for trade.


Meanwhile, you know how in that fighting game known for its gore and fatalities, that always replace the letter c with another letter of similar sound? Yeah, that fighting game that starts with "Mortal...". Well, that letter that they use a lot starts this next BrainStrain.

[Knight of Time]

K could be for Kadabra.

[Shadow Wolf]

Not the correct magic word, but it was very close to getting the trick done:


Kadabra: K??a*

[Knight of Time]

'yawns' I believe it's Komala.

[Shadow Wolf]

You are correct. Apologies for lateness, for I'm working on a transition between jobs. But you are correct Kyle. You have won a Komala figurine.

*Gives figurine*

Isn't it interesting that anything related to yawning (words, sounds and gestures) makes you think about it and actually yawn in the process? Anyway, let us not doze off and here's the baton for you to host the next BrainStrain.

[Knight of Time]

Thanks Louis; actually, I had a real case of the yawns that day where I just couldn't stop myself from yawning. Nonetheless, thanks for the figurine.

Okay, a D begins the next one.

[Shadow Wolf]

Hahahaha, and the irony that the guess was Komala makes the event even more amusing.

Anyway, do not take the Pokemon in the story as the guess, my guess for this puzzle is Diancie.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

My first guess is Duosion.

[Knight of Time]

Diancie: D*
Duosion: Du*

[Shadow Wolf]

I'll try Dustox now.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

And I Ducklett.

[Knight of Time]

Louis got this one, it was Dustox. Better luck next time Mikachu.

'hands the Dustox figurine over to its winner'

Go for it, Louis.

[Shadow Wolf]

Thank you Kyle. That is another new figurine.

Now U get a new BrainStrain and U get a new letter. U know which letter it is right?

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Not so many options, huh?

Is this Umbreon?

[Shadow Wolf]

The moon doesn't seem to be shining tonight.

Umbreon: U*

[Knight of Time]

It's got to be Unown.

[Shadow Wolf]

Indeed, and you used the correct hook to pull out this one Kyle, for this one is an Unown J. Congratulations.

*Gives Unown J figurine*

Your turn

[Knight of Time]

lol, the only time I've heard of the letter J being used like a fishing hook is on an episode of The Big Comfy Couch (I used to like that show as a kid).

'sees something whizz by faster than he can react'

Oh wow, that zipped by! Seems like a certain buzzing, stinging insect was here; I was just barely able to make out the letter...it's a B.

[Shadow Wolf]

Hahahaha, hopefully that was a good memory to recall.

Now, I'll start with Blacephalon.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

And regardless of this being a Bug Pokemon, I'll start with Buzzwole.

[Knight of Time]

Sorry for the long delay guys. Back to the game we go!

Blacephalon: B*
Buzzwole: B*

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I had been losing my motivation on this game myself, but now that we've taken a short break...

How about Beldum?

[Knight of Time]

Beldum: B?ld*

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

This could be Boldore.
