Completed Event Pokémon Trivia

Pokémon Trivia

Yep, we're finally doing it. We're putting the Pokémon community to the test. Can you beat this gauntlet set up by some of the GT's most nefarious goblins. You thought Mt. Battle was a struggle? Wait until you see what we're about to put you through.

All the trivia, all the Pokémon. If you're still wanting to see anything Pokémon once the event has finished, then we've failed. That's how confident we are that this huge quiz is going to stump you.

With that out of the way, make sure you've got all the Full Restores you can carry, your EVs are perfect and your movesets polished - it's time to battle!

The Event

Each day, we will have a round of trivia which could be on any number of categories within the sphere of all things Pokémon. We will be asking a variety of questions, with rounds consisting of the following:

10 x Trivia Questions
10 x Music Questions
5 x Who's that Pokémon?
1 Squirdle

Trivia Questions

These will just be 10 standard questions, spanning over whatever the day's topic is.

Music questions

Same as VG Trivia, these will be snippets of music throughout the Pokémon series. Generally they will be the same as the day's topic.

Who's that Pokémon?

This is a revival of an old GT event, where you will see a close-up of a Pokémon's Dream World art and will need to guess what Pokémon it is. Now this is a little different in that rather than lots of people sending in their guesses, they will need to liaise with their teammates, as they will have only one shot! For some rounds, we will be instead including different images for you to guess (TCG round for example will have you identifying a card based on its Attacks). You CAN look at the Dream World artwork to help determine which Pokémon it is.

You can find that by clicking here.

Squirdle

Squirdle, the Pokémon version of that COVID craze Wordle! Each day we will have one Pokémon for you to guess, using limited information! You can guess a Pokémon and see which categories you match up on, and then use that information to guess once more (and hopefully gain more information). This will continue until you either guess the Pokémon correctly, OR have used up 8 guesses. The 5 categories are:

Generation (Higher/Lower)
Type 1 (Correct/Correct but in the wrong place/Incorrect)
Type 2 (Correct/Correct but in the wrong place/Incorrect)
Evolution Chain (Whether it's a one stage/two stage/three stage evolution) (Higher/Lower)
Base Stat Total (BST) (Higher/Lower)

You will then be indicated as to whether you are correct, or incorrect. If incorrect, you'll be told which way you need to go to get towards the right answer (these are highlighted next to each category). Example in the spoiler tags.

Spoiler:

For this segment of the event, you'll need to message either me or 5qwerty and the we will give you your Results.

Points

Points will be as follows:

1st place: 150 Points
2nd place: 100 Points

Lastly...

Same as all Trivia events - no cheating!

Message your submissions to myself/5qwerty either on here or on Discord (arcaneum / 5qwerty).
