Short Response Results
Returns with the final section: Short Response. Pulled in an amazing 20 responses. A reminder of the scoring system:
- Predicting the most popular answer: 5 points
- Predicting the second most popular answer: 3 points
- Predicting the third most popular answer: 1 point
Could earn big points with a tie for most popular answer and predicting both. Sees a scattershot of answers for this section, however. Makes it tough to score big, but not impossible. Rewards predicting your own answers more in this section than others...usually. May not work as well with more people. Will see how it pans out.

- Brock: 8 (Devalue, Hyzenthlay, _confused_piplup_, TwilightBlade, X_K.V.Jin_X, Miau, Mario-Man, Juno)
- N: 3 (Devalue, Panda280, Groc)
- James: 3 (Aquacorde, Groc, Miau)

- Mr. Sukizo: 1 (Hyzenthlay)
- Shauna: 1 (ReKoil)
- Nurse Joy: 1 (Aldo)

- May: 1 (TwilightBlade)
- Wally: 1 (Cubeth)
- Jessie: 1 (Aquacorde)
- Bianca: 1 (Count Dracularc)
- Yellow: 1 (5qwerty)
Assembled a more reasonable list this time, perhaps owing to only asking for two answers. Overwhelmingly chose Ash, followed by Brock. Tied between James and N for the final spot.
And the predictions:
- Ash: 13 (Devalue, ReKoil, _confused_piplup_, Megan, Cubeth, Count Dracularc, Panda280, apro, 5qwerty, X_K.V.Jin_X, Lozz, Mario-Man, Juno)
- Brock: 8 (Hyzenthlay, _confused_piplup_, TwilightBlade, 5qwerty, X_K.V.Jin_X, Miau, Mario-Man, Juno)

- May: 1 (TwilightBlade)
- Palina: 1 (Aquacorde)
- Bianca: 1 (Count Dracularc)
Reflected the votes in your predictions that time.

15. Meets with Looker (the international police officer) for an important mission. Tasks you with infiltrating the Rocket Hideout beneath Celadon City's Game Corner. Seeks critical information from the database there. Gains the most benefit by swiping it without anyone there knowing. Stresses stealth, not destroying all trainers in your way. May be forced to use force tactically, however.
Supplies you with the following items:
- One Team Rocket uniform
- A rough map of the hideout's layout.
- A USB stick with a Rotom inside.
- Three non-legendary, non-Mythical Pokemon of your choice from Generations 1 and 2.
Search for a computer with high-level access, likely on one of the lowest floors. Insert the USB stick into it. Let Rotom do the rest. May take 30 minutes to complete. Be sure to take the USB stick with Rotom once it finishes.
Which three Pokemon from Generations 1 and 2 do you request?
- Alakazam: 7 (Devalue, Aldo, Count Dracularc, Panda280, 5qwerty, X_K.V.Jin_X, Miau)

- Blastoise: 1 (Juno)
- Blissey: 1 (Hyzenthlay)
- Diglett: 1 (5qwerty)

- Tangela: 1 (Cubeth)
- Typhlosion: 1 (TwilightBlade)
- Venusaur: 1 (Juno)
- Vileplume: 1 (Count Dracularc)
Created another sizable spread of answer. Avoided ties this time. Chose Alakazam, Gengar, and Hypno more than anyone else, in that order.
Personally chose Gastly, rather than Gengar, as an unassuming scout and possible Team Rocket Grunt Pokemon. Decided on Koffing as a Team Rocket Grunt Pokemon and a smokescreen option. Selected Alakazam for (psychic) strength and Teleport.
And the predictions:
- Alakazam: 9 (Devalue, Megan, Aldo, Aquacorde, Count Dracularc, Panda280, 5qwerty, X_K.V.Jin_X, Miau)
- Gengar: 6 (ReKoil, Aldo, Shooting Star, Cubeth, 5qwerty, Lozz)
- Hypno: 3 (Aquacorde, Count Dracularc, apro)
- Ditto: 4 (Hyzenthlay, ReKoil, Cubeth, apro)
- Charizard: 3 (TwilightBlade, Miau, Juno)
- Meowth: 3 (_confused_piplup_, Cubeth, Lozz)
- Abra: 2 (Panda280, Groc)
- Blastoise: 2 (TwilightBlade, Juno)
- Crobat: 2 (Megan, Aquacorde)
- Dragonite: 2 (Hyzenthlay, 5qwerty)
- Jigglypuff: 2 (apro, Lozz)
- Parasect: 2 (Devalue, Shooting Star)
- Umbreon: 2 (TwilightBlade, Mario-Man)
- Weezing: 2 (_confused_piplup_, Aldo)
- Arbok: 1 (_confused_piplup_)
- Espeon: 1 (Mario-Man)
- Kadabra: 1 (Panda280)
- Koffing: 1 (Groc)

- Machamp: 1 (Hyzenthlay)
- Magneton: 1 (Devalue)
- Mr. Mime: 1 (ReKoil)
- Murkrow: 1 (Shooting Star)
- Nidoking: 1 (X_K.V.Jin_X)
- Noctowl: 1 (Miau)
- Sandshrew: 1 (Groc)
- Sneasel: 1 (Mario-Man)
- Tyranitar: 1 (Megan)
- Venusaur: 1 (Juno)
- Vileplume: 1 (Count Dracularc)
Chose the top two correctly, as a whole. Denied Ditto's predictors (who also all chose Ditto).
