No: 9 (budube, Apro, Juno, Arcaneum, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, Groc, Explorer of Time, kpac_xjinx, ReKoil)
Chose their mascot well, seemingly. Still proves somewhat likeable, despite all the exposure. Works out to a "Yes" percentage of 68.97%. Awards points only to people who predicted "More than 50% Yes". Who was that?
More than 75% Yes: 11 (5qwerty, Lavender, Sapphire Rose, lapis_laz95, Explorer of Time, kpac_xjinx, Panda280, Megan, Yellow Bommen, Kitty, Shrew)
More than 50% Yes: 13 (Jbsundown, Luke, Aquacorde, Celéste1, Arcaneum, Tsutarja, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, Groc, CoolKid575, Meganium, ReKoil, tendokiddo, wolf)
More than 50% No: 3 (Devalue, budube, StarstruckFlora)
More than 75% No: 0
Contested: 2 (Apro, Juno)
(YN) 2. Have you ever pressed buttons and/or used the stick/D-pad to increase the odds of a Pokeball capturing something?
Was anyone else here a gullible child?
Yes: 22 (Devalue, Jbsundown, 5qwerty, Luke, budube, Aquacorde, Lavender, Celéste1, Sapphire Rose, Juno, Arcaneum, Tsutarja, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, Explorer of Time, Panda280, Megan, ReKoil, tendokiddo, Yellow Bommen, StarstruckFlora, Shrew, wolf)
Very yes. Equals 75.86% "Yes". (Barely. Was at 75% even before the last survey-taker answered.) Pays out 4 points to people who guessed "More than 75% Yes" and 2 points for the "More than 50% Yes" crowd.
Yes. Did not quite push into the big point territory, however, at 72.41% Yes. How did predictions shake out?
More than 75% Yes: 15 (Luke, budube, Lavender, Celéste1, Sapphire Rose, Juno, Tsutarja, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, Groc, Explorer of Time, kpac_xjinx, Meganium, Megan, Yellow Bommen, Kitty)
More than 50% Yes: 13 (Devalue, Jbsundown, 5qwerty, Aquacorde, Apro, Arcaneum, lapis_laz95, Panda280, ReKoil, tendokiddo, StarstruckFlora, Shrew, wolf)
More than 50% No: 1 (CoolKid575)
More than 75% No: 0
Contested: 0
Predicted "Yes" very clearly. Overestimated a little, however. Awards 2 points to the slightly smaller group of More than 50% Yes.
Congratulates Aquacorde, Arcaneum, and Jbsundown for a perfect Yes/No section. Looks good for Aqua already. But did they take home a medal? Enter your predictions now.
Moves onto the Multiple Choice section. Awards 4 points for predicting the most popular answer and 2 points for the second most popular.
(MC) 5. Which Pokemon card art do you like the most?
Pulls out a chart for this one.
A. Charizard V (Brilliant Stars): 6 (Devalue, 5qwerty, Tsutarja, kpac_xjinx, Meganium, tendokiddo)
D. Grotle (Temporal Forces): 4 (Celéste1, Explorer of Time, kpac_xjinx, Yellow Bommen)
E. Mantyke (Paradox Rift): 3 (Jbsundown, Sapphire Rose, tendokiddo)
Completely abandoned Cleffa in the predictions. Chose your own answer very rarely in this one, for that matter. Still worked out okay for the many Charizard guessers, though. 4 points for Cleffa predictions, 2 points for Charizard predictions, and 2 points for Grotle predictions.
(MC) 6. Which of the following would you like to see the most in the Generation 10 mainline game?
A. Voice acting: 3 (Celéste1, Sapphire Rose, Groc)
B. Difficulty settings: 5 (Devalue, Arcaneum, lapis_laz95, Explorer of Time, Panda280)
C. One version: 1 (ReKoil)
D. Full National Dex in the base game: 7 (Jbsundown, Lavender, CoolKid575, kpac_xjinx, Meganium, tendokiddo, Shrew)
E. A more substantial postgame: 8 (Luke, budube, Aquacorde, Juno, Tsutarja, Yellow Bommen, Kitty, wolf)
F. Not interested in any of these: 5 (5qwerty, Apro, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, Megan, StarstruckFlora)
Craved a stronger postgame the most. Followed that up with a full National Dex as the next highest choice.
Posted the answers chart above more for the prediction chart below:
D. Full National Dex in the base game: 17 (Devalue, Jbsundown, 5qwerty, Lavender, Sapphire Rose, Juno, Tsutarja, lapis_laz95, Groc, Explorer of Time, CoolKid575, kpac_xjinx, Meganium, ReKoil, tendokiddo, Yellow Bommen, Shrew)
E. A more substantial postgame: 6 (Celéste1, Apro, Arcaneum, Megan, Kitty, StarstruckFlora)
F. Not interested in any of these: 0
Gravitated heavily towards the full National Dex, which was not quite the most popular. Awards 4 points to the postgame predictors and 2 points to the National Dex predictors.
(MC) 7. To the best of your knowledge, what was your first introduction to Pokemon?
A. Video Games: 12 (Devalue, Jbsundown, Juno, Arcaneum, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, lapis_laz95, Groc, Explorer of Time, Panda280, ReKoil, Yellow Bommen, Kitty)
C. Trading Card Game (physical or digital): 2 (tendokiddo, StarstruckFlora)
D. Other: 2 (Celéste1, Megan)
Lots of introductions through the anime. Edged out the video game crowd by a single vote.
A. Video Games: 14 (Devalue, Jbsundown, Lavender, Juno, Arcaneum, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, Explorer of Time, kpac_xjinx, Panda280, Meganium, Megan, tendokiddo, Yellow Bommen, Kitty)
C. Trading Card Game (physical or digital): 1 (Shrew)
D. Other: 0
A simiarly even split in the predictions (which is not that surprising, honestly). Should have made this one a Yes/No question. Ah well. 4 points for the anime predictors and 2 points for the video game predictors.
(MC) 8. Which Furfrou trim do you like the most?
A. Dandy: 3 (Groc, Panda280, ReKoil)
B. Debutante: 5 (budube, Juno, lapis_laz95, Kitty, StarstruckFlora)
C. Diamond: 3 (Arcaneum, Elite Overlord LeSabre™, wolf)
D. Heart: 1 (5qwerty)
E. Kabuki: 5 (Devalue, Jbsundown, Aquacorde, Apro, tendokiddo)
F. La Reine: 0
G. Matron: 2 (Celéste1, Megan)
H. Pharaoh: 4 (Luke, Lavender, Explorer of Time, CoolKid575)
Chose Star by a single vote. Zero votes for La Reine. Competed with a lot of other blues, to be fair. Hands the joint silver medal to Debutante and Kabuki.
Followed the popular answers, largely. Took the Heart predictors by surprise, however.
And now for the final section: the Short Response. Awards 5 points for predicting the most popular answer, 3 points for the second most popular answer, and 1 point for the third most popular answer.
(SR) 9. Excluding any Pokemon you would live with, what two Pokemon from Generation 4 or 5 would you be most likely to encounter in your day-to-day life?

Vanilluxe: 1 (Arcaneum)
Zorua: 1 (Sapphire Rose)
5 points for all those Starly guesses, 3 points for the Pidove guesses, and 1 point for Trubbish guesses.
Neglected the bird vote, personally. Sees mainly sparrows here, not pidgeons, doves, or starlings.
(SR) 10. Which two moves do you think have the best animations? (Allows any move from any official Pokemon game. Asks for only the move's name, not the specific game it is from.)
Severely underestimated the range of answers. Places Ice Beam and Retaliate as most popular answers. Treats all the moves garning two votes as the third most popular. Earns up to 10 points on this question, due to the first place tie.
Surf: 4 (Jbsundown, Aquacorde, Explorer of Time, Yellow Bommen)
Anchor Shot: 3 (Celéste1, Apro, Juno)
Draco Meteor: 3 (5qwerty, Aquacorde, Apro)

Moongeist Beam: 1 (ReKoil)
Night Shade: 1 (lapis_laz95)
Psychic: 1 (Tsutarja)
Solarbeam: 1 (Meganium)
Sunny Day: 1 (Jbsundown)
Tackle: 1 (Megan)
Water Pulse: 1 (Lavender)
Zap Cannon: 1 (Meganium)
Predicted the most popular answer the most. Notes an awful lot of Surf and Thunderbolt predictions. And where did Anchor Shot come from?
At any rate, 5 points for the Retaliate predictors. 1 point for predictions on Behemoth Blade, Explosion, Fire Blast, Pyro Ball, Shadow Ball, and Triple Arrows.
Reached the end of the survey. Tallied up all the points. Resulted in a single winner taking home the gold medal. Please congratulate...
Juno, with a score of 29
Came down to the wire. Did you predict that after the Multiple Choice section?
