Puzzle #018
"Earth-Splitting Shadow 2"​

You found the whereabouts of the mischievous shadow!

You're right near the entrance to the lake all clues led you to.

Just like before, this shadow destroys anywhere it walks on, so you need to be careful to proceed harmless.

The shadow took the longest route from top left to bottom right.

Remembering that it cannot walk anywhere it has already walked, what's the route that the shadow took?

Feel free to either describe or use an image to answer!

"Catching Up"​

Pumpkaboo and Clefable want to help too!

​

They decided running would be best to catch up with you. Clefable sets off first, and Pumpkaboo starts running when Clefable has ran one hundred meters. Clefable runs at one meter per second, and Pumpkaboo runs at two meters per second.

They start from the same spot, travel the same route and neither turns back at any point.

What is the minimum number of seconds it would take Pumpkaboo to catch up with Clefable?

Puzzle #021
"Ancient Door"​

As you arrive at the lake, you notice the ancient door supposed to guard it.

If you get through here, you'll find the culprit behind all the mischievous Pokémon!

But to open it, you have to solve a complex mechanism.

The door has three different types of your alarms, functioning like alarm clocks in it. One goes off in response to sound, one goes off in response to light and one goes off in response to vibration.

The doors has also three buttons that each produce one of those effects.
Button A produces sound
Button B produces light
Button C produces vibration

In order to open the door, you need to set off all three alarms by pressing the least number of buttons possible.

Which buttons do you press in which order?

Puzzle #022
"The Forest Tailor 2"​

Ditto disguised as Leavanny again!

But this time, it's not alone. You can see nine "Leavanny". All of them are Ditto, except for the two real Leavanny.

In a short notice after they were transforming, you caught a crucial glimpse that tells you who's real and who's not!

Each of the "Leavanny" is pointing each other to ascertain who's a friend and who's not.

The Ditto, who know their friends, are pointing to the real Leavanny. If there's not a Leavanny adjacent to them, they don't point anyone.

The Leavanny, unaware of who's who, will point at anyone, regardless of whether they're a Leavanny or a Ditto.

Can you figure out which two Leavanny are the real ones?

Feel free to either describe or use an image to answer!

C. There are two liars among us!
B. I am the only one who's lying.

Based on their statements, who's lying?

Puzzle #024
"Target Practice 2"​

Clefable and Pumpkaboo have arrived!

With their help, the mischievous Pokémon's numbers mean nothing against your team.

But Pumpkaboo's a bit nervous that it might mess up and miss. While trying to comfort it, Clefable suggested Pumpkaboo to imagine the mischievous Pokémon as a target!

This is a bit like how Pumpkaboo's imagining it.

Pumpkaboo shot Bullet Seed three times, and all of them hit different sections.

What's the lowest possible score for Pumpkaboo?

Puzzle #025
"Ice Blocks"​

You found the mischievous shadow!

Turns out it was Mamoswine using Earthquake to mess up the forest. Mamoswine doesn't seem to be well...

While you were fighting against one of the other mischievous Pokémon, it used an ice-type attack!

Three ice blocks will attack you from two opposite sides. Each piece from A, B and C will fit with one piece from 1, 2 and 3.

Can you work out which piece fits with which in order to dodge them?

Feel free to either describe or use an image to answer!

 

[Devalue]

Calls dibs on Pumpkaboo after this is over. Finds it endearing. Suspects it to be an underdog thing, similar to Farfetch'd's life for most of Pokemon.

Solution #019
"Catching Up"​

Their goal is to catch up with you. If you're only 100 meters away from Clefable, Pumpkaboo will start running when Clefable arrives where you are.

So it's possible that the minimum time it would take Pumpkaboo to catch up with Clefable is as little as 50 seconds.

Help has arrived!

Team Aecor almost scored perfectly!

"Sedentary Color"​

Smeargle's colors represent the sky.

Black is the night sky, blue is the sky on a clear day, and white is the sky on a cloudy day.

The color of the sky changes depending on the weather, but there is one color that represents something you can see everyday, no matter what the weather is like. That is the black of the night sky.

Solution #021
"Ancient Door"​

An alarm will go off if any of the three buttons are pressed, so Button A doesn't need to be pressed since the alarm's sound will replace it.

Since sound is the vibration of air, Button C doesn't need to be pressed either, because if any alarm goes off, the door will vibrate.

But the only way to make it light is by pressing the Button B, and that's the only button you need to press to sound all three alarms.

What's behind the door?

Solution #022
"The Forest Tailor 2"​

The real Leavanny are on the top row, in the middle and the right!

If you take into account that Ditto will only point at Leavanny, it's easy to spot the Leavanny.

None from the bottom row is pointing at themselves or the middle row, so those two rows only have Ditto.

Since most of them are pointing at the top middle, that one has to be a Leavanny, and so has to be the one Leavanny that is pointing at an actual Ditto from the middle row.

Looks like Ditto should've thought of a better way to know themselves!

Solution #023
"Lying Shadows"​

The liars were A and B!

A said that nobody is lying, and B said that one Gengar is lying. They are saying different things, so at least one of them must be lying.

C said that two Gengar are lying. A, B and C are all saying different things, so that means that two or all of them must be lying.

Since there's a maximum of two liars among the Gengar, that means only two of A, B and C are lying. One of them is telling the truth, which means D was not lying.

B must be one of them, since it would contradict both A and C!

And since B is lying, A's lying about there being no liars!

You hear the Gengar say they didn't mean to bother anyone. Can you trust them?

It seems they really enjoyed the games. Looks like they're not done playing yet!

Maybe you'll meet again later?
