Ho-oh 112 June 5th, 2011 4:53 PM

Is it Zigzagoon or Poochyana?

Page 5 = )

Hooh June 5th, 2011 4:59 PM

Doduo, or maybe Dodrio?

They do multiply...

Dodrio has already been guessed... (But who am I to judge someone's guess...)

starlightmint72 June 5th, 2011 6:55 PM

it's corpish! i just know it!

coolcatkim22 June 5th, 2011 7:06 PM

Yes it is Corphish, next riddle:

I have eyes, although sometimes, it's hard to tell.
I have arms, although sometimes, I will not have them on me at the moment.
If I am still, it is easier for me to attack.
If I move, circles can be found.

GingerTom June 6th, 2011 3:59 PM

I think it's Poliwag and here is why:
I have eyes, although sometimes, it's hard to tell.
Poli is normally spelt with a y and not a I

I have arms, although sometimes, I will not have them on me at the moment.
It evolves into pokemon with arms

If I am still, it is easier for me to attack.
Quote from bulbapedia "It has newly developed legs that are still not used to walking"

If I move, circles can be found.
Spirals on belly?

FreakDude June 7th, 2011 3:50 AM

Caterpie? I stilll do not know why?xD

VileSigmaZeroX June 8th, 2011 12:11 AM

I think it's Bronzor and Bronzong... I guess..or something...yeah

coolcatkim22 June 8th, 2011 12:44 PM

No, no and no.

Keep on trying.

The Jewel of Life June 10th, 2011 11:24 AM

Aww... I can't post a riddle until I've answered five? How sad.
Better start answering riddles.

My guess is Registeel.
Reasons:

I have eyes, although sometimes, it's hard to tell.

The dots on Registeel's face have both been referred to as eyes or simply markings, making it somewhat of a debate whether it has eyes or not.

I have arms, although sometimes, I will not have them on me at the moment.


In one version Registeel had to have an edited sprite because of controversies over it's arm looking like the Nazi salute. The arm had to be taken off and redrawn.

If I am still, it is easier for me to attack.

Registeel can learn the move curse which will lower it's speed and raise it's attack. By being slow, or still, Registeel is better able to fight.

If I move, circles can be found.

Registeel's footprints are circular.


Seems like an out-there guess... but I try.
I do have two other guesses... although I have no explanation for the circles for these two.

Spoiler:

Darmanitan:

I have eyes, although sometimes, it's hard to tell.

Its eyes become blank in zen mode.

I have arms, although sometimes, I will not have them on me at the moment.


Also in zen mode darmanitan's arms disappear leaving only it's hands.

If I am still, it is easier for me to attack.


Zen mode again. Darmanitan becomes still and may attack using psychic moves and is quite powerful.

______________________________________

Cofagrigus:

I have eyes, although sometimes, it's hard to tell.

At times during the animation cofagrigus's sarcophagus will close and you will not be able to see its eyes...

I have arms, although sometimes, I will not have them on me at the moment.

...Or its arms.

If I am still, it is easier for me to attack.

The pokedex mentions that cofagrigus will hold still and disguise itself as a sarcophagus so that people will get close, then it will attack them.


shinysweety June 10th, 2011 11:38 AM

Is it Brock? Is it Staryu or Starmie?

Ho-oh 112 June 11th, 2011 6:41 PM

I KNOW IT IS IT SOME POKEMON OR ANOTHER?

(can't say no to that = p)

coolcatkim22 June 12th, 2011 6:06 AM

No, no and that's not viable answer.

Come on people, it's not that tricky.

Ho-oh 112 June 12th, 2011 9:54 AM

I think it's Yamask?



Also, I have another guess:

Jirachi

poopnate June 12th, 2011 2:57 PM

Could it be Baltoy, perhaps?

smithtism June 12th, 2011 9:29 PM

Could it possibly be Ditto?

coolcatkim22 June 13th, 2011 4:13 AM

No, no and no.

Next riddle:
In the sun is where I'm best.
I'm protected from conditons and slowpokes.
I can not be found in the wild.
But I was once found in the grass.
I am ancient yet I am new.

Esper June 13th, 2011 7:20 AM

It's gotta be Tangrowth. It can loose its arms without feeling pain, it evolves when it knows ancient power, it has vines over its eyes, its footprints are circular, and one of its abilities is leaf guard.

I don't know how about the 'not found in the wild' bit since it can be, but everything else fits.

Ho-oh 112 June 13th, 2011 7:45 AM

Kabuto

It is a fossil pokemon (ancient) but new to pokemon reaserchers

It has glowing red dots which are eyes

it evolves into Kabutops which has arms

it has an abillity named battle armor and a hidden abillity called weak armor

since Kabut is "extinct" it can't be found wild, but was LONG ago found in the grass

when it moves you can see it's eyes


Kabuto fits EVERYTHING you said = ) (I think)

coolcatkim22 June 13th, 2011 3:55 PM

Okay, Scarf got it, next riddle:

I am a fast thing by nature.
I am harder then diamonds and pearls I adore.
I hunt by hiding and snatching.
I am a slow thing by nature.
I am soft and only my head is hard.
I hunt by waiting and waiting.

poopnate June 13th, 2011 4:34 PM

Slowbro?

The Shellder part of it is quick, has a shell harder than diamonds, and (being a clam-like pokemon) would produce a pearl. It hunts by biting a Slowpoke.

The Slowpoke part of it is slow and has a hard head (it can survive a bite on the head from Shellder and even benefit from it). It hunts by dipping its tail into the water to wait for something to bite.

ビデオゲーム常用者 June 13th, 2011 4:54 PM

Yeah,Slowpoke's seem to be the answer

coolcatkim22 June 13th, 2011 5:00 PM

You guys are close but not exactly.

ビデオゲーム常用者 June 13th, 2011 5:01 PM

Slowking?Cuz of the Shelder that bit it on the head

poopnate June 13th, 2011 5:04 PM

I'd go with Slowking too, but not just agreeing with VGAddict. Slowking was my second guess after Slowbro. I knew it was SOMETHING in the Slowpoke family. :P

coolcatkim22 June 14th, 2011 3:39 AM

Yes, Slowking, next riddle:

I cannot be killed easily.
My core will revive me.
I shine by starlight on midnights.
To a beat that is in tuned with the heart.

Impo June 14th, 2011 3:56 AM

Staryu or Starmie?
I'm pretty confident on this one!

ビデオゲーム常用者 June 14th, 2011 8:06 AM

Dunno,Woobat,Swoobat?But Staryu/Starmie would be my second option

coolcatkim22 June 14th, 2011 9:30 AM

I will remind you guys again, one guess at a time, but yes, Staryu, next riddle

I.......................................................colour................... .................................am
..can......................................other.............I................... ............................I.......third.
........be...........................any.........................was............. ...................yet
.............green,...........or........................................seen..... .....second
.......................purple.................................................... ...as

poopnate June 14th, 2011 9:57 AM

Kecleon? I just thought of it because there was a Purple Kecleon in the anime at some point. xD

EternalLoathing June 15th, 2011 1:55 AM

kecleon,fits description at the riddle is written in Kecleon stripe pattern

coolcatkim22 June 15th, 2011 4:59 AM

Correct, Keckleon, next riddle:

Stealthy I am, I need to be.
Nests I seek, of which I attack.
Anticipating ambush, I check the aroma.
Keeping everything, my meal I mean.
Exhaushted I sleep, perhaps in the trees.

Ho-oh 112 June 15th, 2011 1:43 PM

Is it Seviper? (sorry if incorrect spelling = /)

coolcatkim22 June 19th, 2011 10:32 AM

Um, why is no one else guessing?

BTW, it's not Serviper.

GingerTom June 19th, 2011 12:56 PM

Um.... Spinarak?
Fits description, nicely :3

BlueHighwind June 22nd, 2011 5:10 AM

This has GOT to be Sneasel.

coolcatkim22 June 22nd, 2011 7:15 AM

No and no.

Gezz, I thought I made this riddle really obvious.

shinysweety June 24th, 2011 7:39 AM

Is it Pineco (bad gues '-_-)

starlightmint72 June 24th, 2011 8:24 AM

Is it maybe Ekans? I don't really think that it's right, but it's at least a guess for now.

lionrt60 June 24th, 2011 8:43 AM

Purugly? lol


...yeah, i'll keep searching xD

coolcatkim22 June 24th, 2011 9:34 AM

Yes it's ekans. I mean really guys, none of you saw this?
Stealthy I am, I need to be.
Nests I seek, of which I attack.
Anticipating ambush, I check the aroma.
Keeping everything, my meal I mean.
Exhaushted I sleep, perhaps in the trees.

Anyways, next riddle:
+ Like Zubat I sleep. +
-But in the rough not in the caves. -



- I am telepathic and I am psychic -
+ But I don't use my psychic powers to be telepathic +

smithtism June 24th, 2011 9:52 AM

Could the answer be Abra?

lionrt60 June 25th, 2011 9:28 AM

Part of the beldum or magnemite line?

coolcatkim22 June 25th, 2011 6:35 PM

Okay, this is the last time I'm reminding you guys. ONE GUESS AT A TIME. I see it again, I'm just going to say your wrong, okay?

But yes, Beldum, next riddle:

I rattle and echo loudly in the mountains.
But only when my species becomes my position.
I have a tail, arms, legs. a head...
...and perhaps fangs but few know and even those knowing don't really know.

starlightmint72 June 26th, 2011 9:44 PM

cubone maybe? that's all i can think of right now...

coolcatkim22 June 27th, 2011 3:00 AM

Correct, and if I'm not wrong that means you can post riddles now.
Let me know if you want to post one or not.

Next riddle for now:

I mxve very xddly.
Causing a reactixn.
Each mxve with it's xwn meaning and feeling.

NurseBarbra June 27th, 2011 3:17 AM

Well you replaced every o with x .... emm... move very oddly.... has x .... own meaning and feeling...
Could It be Xatu by any chance?

starlightmint72 June 27th, 2011 7:45 AM

i have no riddles now, but i'll tell you if i've thought of one.

and yeah, probably xatu. it's the only pokemon starting with 'x'.

Esper June 27th, 2011 9:28 AM

Maybe... Spinda? They stagger around when they move to confuse others.

lionrt60 June 29th, 2011 9:34 AM

Anyway, is it Jynx, I know its not right but what the heck ^^

coolcatkim22 July 3rd, 2011 6:47 PM

Sorry I've been away, my internet's been down.

Anyways, it's Jynx, next riddle:

The colder times are best.
For I become stronger then all the rest.
Those foolish humans carry around those lockets.
Why carry them when they can carry me in their pockets.

DoctorSlavic July 3rd, 2011 7:20 PM

Hmm... the only thing that comes to mind for me is Snorunt.

Frisky Arcanine July 3rd, 2011 8:35 PM

I have to agree with Snorunt

coolcatkim22 July 6th, 2011 4:00 PM

Do I have to put it in bold print? Don't make a post just to agree with someone else's answer. There isn't a point to it and it's annoying.

And no, not Snorunt.

GingerTom July 7th, 2011 2:46 PM

For some reason I think RegiIce IDK...

Esper July 10th, 2011 12:38 PM

Smoochum? It's an ice type and it's small, though I don't know about being small enough to fit in a pocket.

smithtism July 10th, 2011 1:02 PM

It's probably Castform. Or the answer is even more complicated than even this.

coolcatkim22 July 11th, 2011 3:30 AM

No, no and no.

Keep trying.

TigerDan July 12th, 2011 4:27 PM

Mamoswine? It might not fit in your pockets but it is old, meaning there would be pictures of it, pictures which could replace those in a locket. Right?... Right?

TigerDan July 13th, 2011 9:16 AM

I don't know if this counts as posting more than one answer at a time but I figure my last one was wrong sooo... My new guess is Vanillite. I think it is kind of a dumb pokemon but whatever.

dreyko July 13th, 2011 11:59 AM

my guess would be cryogonal, it kinda looks like a locket

coolcatkim22 July 13th, 2011 1:34 PM

No and no.

I'm posting a hint early:

I attract my prey, in a very odd way.
My prey must be tough to be attracted that way.
Thought once to stay but found to move a little each day.
But musn't I move to travel with my master every day?

TigerDan July 15th, 2011 5:22 PM

Froslass because dex entry says it displays its prey

coolcatkim22 August 1st, 2011 4:35 AM

Yeah no.

Gezz, nobody is posting here any more. Everybody must be on vacation or something.

TheFuturePokemon August 1st, 2011 5:41 AM

Lemme guess. hmmm is it Spheal?

shinysweety August 6th, 2011 5:59 PM

Hmm, I don't really think it is this pokemon but its kinda like the description is it Hypno?

Ciax August 8th, 2011 8:23 PM

Sneasal maybe just maybe
and uhh need some more characters

coolcatkim22 August 12th, 2011 7:21 AM

No, no and no.

Any more guesses?

coolcatkim22 September 12th, 2011 1:42 AM

Okay, I don't mean to bump this but seriously, it's been a month. Somebody guess something.

cacturne4512 September 24th, 2011 6:50 AM

Glalie? It looks locket-ish to me and no one's guessed it yet.

Phlip September 24th, 2011 7:29 AM

is it cubchoo???????????????

echolocated September 24th, 2011 9:06 AM

Musharna?
-Colder times are best because Glaceon can breed with it?
-Attracted in an odd way 'cause it can learn Attract and it's kinda ugly?
-Thought to stay because it looks like it just sleeps there?
-My prey must be tough.... because it's strong against Fighting-types?
Dunno about the locket part, though.

Squirrel September 24th, 2011 4:11 PM

Hmm... I'm gonna guess at Goldeen?

coolcatkim22 September 25th, 2011 10:07 AM

Yay, more guesses ^_^

No, no, no and no.

New Hint:
I am unique in the way of traps.
If you are weak against my forces you are stuck.
But my kind alone can repel against my stunt.
In fact, my kind must make 0
..............................................0
................................................0
..............................................0
................................................0

Squirrel September 25th, 2011 11:18 AM

Ehh.... *thinks of abilities which trap opponants*

OHHHHH, is it Wynaut??

echolocated September 25th, 2011 6:32 PM

Hmmm...is it Trapinch? I know it's not stronger in colder times but eh, whatever.

coolcatkim22 September 27th, 2011 1:39 AM

No and no.

Two more gueses and I post another hint.

Squirrel September 27th, 2011 6:53 AM

Hurrmmmm, is it Wobbuffet? It's similar to Wynaut... xD

RedTheTrainer September 28th, 2011 1:22 PM

Im thinking it may be Wobbuffet.

coolcatkim22 September 29th, 2011 3:35 AM

Wobbuffet was already guessed. Like, right before your post.

Squirrel September 29th, 2011 4:39 AM

Ehh this is hard! I'm completely stuck, clue please? :D

Ciax September 29th, 2011 5:19 AM

How does wobbuffet get stronger in cold???
Proably the best guess ive seen. Me guessing uhhhh
im just gonna say walrein, just for the hell of it

cacturne4512 September 29th, 2011 11:53 AM

Ok, my next guess will seem stupid at first, but hear me out. Is it Litwick? It's part fire-type so it's super effective against Ice (colder times are the best) It's small enough to fit in your pocket (not that you would want to, it having a flame on its head and all). It lures prey in by making them think it's a candle. And according to Bulbapedia, it can have Shadow Tag as a hidden ability.

(I'm completely off on this, aren't I?)

coolcatkim22 September 29th, 2011 5:43 PM

None of you are right yet, sorry. The last time I posted this people had trouble with it too.

Hint:
I haven't been around long but long enough to know,
that you don't usually progress with such reasons in tow.
I am pure, and I am holy, but don't misunderstand,
I'm only good at guiding you to who I am.

Tanaki September 30th, 2011 6:16 AM

Is it Cryogonal? He has like a 1% find rate, and he catches pokes with chains? Idk.

Squirrel September 30th, 2011 1:24 PM

Uhmmmm... Is it Eevee? :s

No wait, I reckon it's Beartic??

OHHH I think I do actually know it now! I think it's definitely Cryogonal! The riddle works for it... But Tanaki already said that D: Hmmm... I'll stick with Beartic :3

coolcatkim22 October 1st, 2011 4:03 AM

No and no.

Alright, you guys have two more guesses before I reveal the answer.

Squirrel October 1st, 2011 5:07 AM

Wait seriously, it's not Cryogonal? o.o Well now I'm confused...

My only other sure guess was Froslass, but that's also a no. So how about Spinirak? It has spider web which pre-Gen V was it's signature move and is for trapping. It has the face on it's back for the pray thing. Not sure about the cold part, but according to Bulbapedia "Spinarak are patient hunters that can stand motionlessly for several days as they wait for unsuspecting prey to get trapped in their webs" explaining the movement part. It's resistant against both of its own types, explaining the "my kind alone" part of the riddle. I suppose the 'guiding to who I am' section could be based on Spinirak's ability to change the face on its back to suit its mood? Anyhow, that's my best guess now.

coolcatkim22 October 3rd, 2011 5:11 AM

No.

Alright, this is the last chance. One more guess and then the big reveal.

Tanaki October 3rd, 2011 6:22 PM

Zoroark! Master of Illusions!

Squirrel October 3rd, 2011 11:15 PM

Joltik?? It fits half the stuff >< Literally clutching at straws...

mzmingle October 4th, 2011 12:04 PM

Glaceon? Wait, I know! Vannilite!

TheFuturePokemon October 4th, 2011 12:19 PM

Going with Litwick. dun dun dun

coolcatkim22 October 4th, 2011 1:06 PM

Okay, all of you are wrong.

Now for the big REVEAL!!!

...

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5175/nosepass.gif
Nosepass.

Alright, next riddle:

Rid, riddle, riddle.
Look I found a fiddle.
The anwser should be on the line here.
Laughing and laughing all those days and nights.
The spoon and plate isn't quite so near.

Squirrel October 4th, 2011 1:51 PM

Ehhh.... *goes back through riddle* Nope, don't geddit x3
Is this one Kricketune...?

coolcatkim22 October 4th, 2011 7:06 PM

Do you want me to explain the last riddle?

Also, no not Kricketune.

Xebelleon October 4th, 2011 7:32 PM

You sneaky little, that would be a Lunatone.

Squirrel October 6th, 2011 12:59 PM

Quote:

Yes please. xD Hmmm, I thought Lunatone too but that's just been guessed. So how about Metang?

coolcatkim22 October 7th, 2011 3:00 AM

No and no. Close though.

Okay, here's the explanation for the last riddle:

The colder times are best.
For I become stronger then all the rest.
"Its magnetism is stronger in cold seasons." They are stronger magnets then any other during cold seasons.

Those foolish humans carry around those lockets.
Why carry them when they can carry me in their pockets.
Compasses are kind of like lockets, in fact some of them look just like lockets. The whole pocket thing is kind of trying to lead you away from the answer. Normally, you would think that the Pokemon in the riddle would be one that is small enough to fit in your pocket. However, Pokemon are Pocket Monsters, thus any one of them can fit in your pocket (I'm surprised nobody figured this out).

I attract my prey, in a very odd way.
My prey must be tough to be attracted that way.
"It feeds on prey that is pulled in by the force." Since it pulls in thing with magnetism you can assume that it eats metal, which is tough.

Thought once to stay but found to move a little each day.
But mustn't I move to travel with my master every day?
"Nosepass had been said to be completely unmoving,... ...However, close observation has revealed that the Pokémon actually moves by a little over 3/8 of an inch every year." If Nosepass is completely unmoving then how can it travel with a trainer or even do attacks.

I am unique in the way of traps.
If you are weak against my forces you are stuck.
Magnet Pull Ability. By being weak against his forces I meant that they must be steel type to get stuck.

But my kind alone can repel against my stunt.
In fact, my kind must make 0
..........................................0
........................................0
..........................................0
........................................0
"If two of these Pokémon meet, they cannot turn their faces to each other when they are close because their magnetic noses repel one another." Also, Nosepass are the only one's with this ability that aren't steel type. Also, Nosepass make zero shaped footprints.

I haven't been around long but long enough to know,
that you don't usually progress with such reasons in tow.
Nosepass is a third generation Pokemon and thus hasn't been around that long. It evolves by leveling up at Mt. Coronet which is a very unusual evolution progress.

I am pure, and I am holy, but don't misunderstand,
I'm only good at guiding you to who I am.
It's a pure rock type. It has several holes in it. And it's a compass, so, guiding would be it's main function.

smithtism October 8th, 2011 6:31 PM

Mmm...imma say Miltank mostly because of the fiddle and the spoon thing.
