~The Obscurity Game~
 
~The Obscurity Game~

Hello, and welcome to the Obscurity Game, a game in which your knowledge of Pokémon will be tested to the extreme!

How it works
- The first poster says two Pokémon related words to be connected and a number of links to do it in.
- A condition can also be posted such as "without mentioning Ground types" which must be followed too.
- The next poster replies with a chain of links connecting the two words stated by the original poster before supplying their own two words and number of links for the next poster to connect.
- All connections must contain the stated number of links; no more or no less.

Example
Person 1: Link the item Choice Scarf to the Pokémon Skarmory in three links!
Person 2: Okay, err...
1. Choice Scarf and Silk Scarf are both scarves.
2. Silk Scarf powers up Normal Type Pokemon moves.
3. Normal type moves are weak against Steel types such as Skarmory!
Now link Pecha berries to Voltorb in five links without mentioning any Generation II or higher Pokemon!
Person 3: This is a hard one...
1. Pecha berries cure Poison status conditions.
2. Poison Jab can cause this status condition.
3. Sandshrew can learn Poison Jab.
4. Sandshrew is a Ground type which are strong against Electric types.
5. Voltorb is an Electric type!
Now link Electabuzz and Elekid in seven links!

Rules
- Follow all Community and Trivia rules.
- All links must be Pokémon related. (So no links like "they both start with the letter 'E'.")
- You must use the amount of links specified by the poster.
- You must follow conditions given (eg "without mentioning Ground types").
- When saying a number of links to use, keep the number between 2 and 8 to avoid overly short or long posts.
- You can make things tricky by giving two very closely related subjects with a large number of links to do it in!

So to start things off, here's the first link! Link Remoraid to Cinnabar Island in 6 links! ^_^
