Okay, either no one noticed I placed a couple of hints in the post, or the question is still too difficult.

Anyway, I'm adding another question.

 

RULES:

- Follow the basic forum rules.

- Additional points can be earned by giving extra details (not unnecessary/obvious details!) in the answer. Also, some question may require several answers, earning you multiple points (if this is the case this will be mentioned in the question).

- Don't post an answer already given before by someone else

- ...unless you can improve it.

- If you changed your display name and have scored before (so you're already on the scoreboard), please inform me of this when posting another answer.

- Some questions may be trick questions!

- If you managed to find this text, add the phrase "I know your secret!" to your answer for another two bonus points! Obviously, you can only do this once.

 

Scoreboard:

SP_: 10

mr.chya: 2

 

Question #7:

In Generation V, there are three moves that despite being classified as special moves calculate the damage using the user's special attack and the opponent'sdefense (instead of it's special defense). Name one of these moves for 1 point, name all three of them for 2 points.

(HINT: Two of these moves are signature moves of legendary Pokémon. Two of the three moves are psychic type moves, the other is fighting. The not-signature move is Psyshock, name the other two for 1 point.)

 

Question #8:

In Generation III, what kind of pokémon is the pokémon nicknamed "Peeko"?

Q8: Wingull.  It was kidnapped by the villains and you had to rescue it in Ruby/Sapphire.

[Dox]

Correct.

ABOUT THE QUIZ:

This is a quiz mainly about the main Pokémon games. Unless stated otherwise in the question, you don't have to consider the other games or the anime.

If a question has not been answered for a while, I'll edit the post to add a hint to the question, so be sure to check again every now and then if you don't know the answer. I might also add another question.

As for cheating, you could of course use sites like Bulbapedia or Serebii to answer the questions (I can hardly tell you not to, right?), but keep in mind that it really is more fun to answer them with your own knowledge.

(HINT: Oh just Google it already! ...not? Okay then, it involves the Battle Tower. You have to use the PC there.)

 

Question #13:

When the summary of a pokémon has the "Often lost in thought" characteristic, what does this say about this pokémon's IV?

(HINT: 3, 8, 13, 18, 23, 28. That's right, cryptic numbers. Also, special attack.)

Edited by Praecantatio, 30 April 2013 - 11:30 AM.

[Broly]

Answer to #13: if a pokemon has "often lost in thought" characteristic, then the max Sp. Attack IV it can have is 28 - the fourth best characteristic to have when it comes to Sp. Attack IV. The best one being "Mechievous", with which max IV would be 31.

[mr.chya]

Q. 9 From what I read you go to battle tower deposit the pokemon you want to clone in the PC save then remove the pokemon and go to the receptionist and initiate a link battle and as it's saving turn off the power. then turn on the game load up the save then immediately save and your done. apparently you can also use this trick to clone items to.

[Dox]

Q9: Correct, I'll give you only 1 point though (yes even though I said you could earn 2) as you obviously googled it (like I suggested, but still  ) 

Q13: Correct and welcome to the quiz, Broly! As for the points....hrm....oh well, let's just make it 2. A bonus point for giving the best characteristic.

Question #14:

At what level does Donphan learn it's signature move?

[mr.chya]

I had to google it since even though I've had Ruby I never actually went to battle tower. Plus looking at the official player's guide from Nintendo for Ruby and Sapphire  it doesn't look like that feature is available outside of Emerald.

 

 

 

Q 14. Donphan learns rollout at level 33

Edited by mr.chya, 01 May 2013 - 04:50 PM.

[Dox]

...Hang on, I think you're right. It's only possible in Emerald. My bad! +1 for you for mentioning that, then =)

 

Anyway, your answer on Q14 is incorrect!

Question #14:

Edited by Praecantatio, 01 May 2013 - 06:51 PM.

[Ozarukage]

A14: Isn't signature move a move which no other evolutionary line can learn? Cause Donphan doesn't have any of those....
But if you mean Rollout then it's Level 15 currently, thought it was Level 33 prior to Gen IV.

[Dox]

I'm not sure if I should call this a correct answer or not. Yes, that is exactly what a signature move is.

Let's just say you are VERY close. Also try reading the quiz rules again, it might help.

 

...That gave it away, didn't it?

[Dox]

...Correct, as I said in the rules some questions may be trick questions. Sheesh, that didn't really work out as planned... 

Anyway, +1.
