How about "Lake Of Rage" for 11 across. Intimidating due to Gyarados' Intimidate?
2 across makes me think Lanturn because of the deep part... Chinchou would fit, bit the Jaws part is making me think it's not this line.
The Totodile line is classified as the Big Jaw Pokemon, though I don't really associate them with swimming in the deep. That said Totodile and Croconaw both fit length wise.
Is 2 across "Totodile" ?
Was thinking maybe one of the Speed related Pokeathlon events for 9 across, but none of them fit. Nor the Pokeathlon Dome.
Not the Bicycle Shop either. Train Station is supposedly close. Magnet train doesn't fit either though. *shrugs*
I'm pretty much assuming the theme is "Jotho", be it GSC or HGSS Johto, based on the filled in answers.
Is 1 Down "Burned Tower" ? It was once named the Brass Tower, burned down, and I guess the water part is the fire being put out. Or perhaps the hint is entirely about
Brass itself, idk how brass is made.
Well, well, well! What have you uncovered here? A Lake of Rage and a Totodile hiding in that puzzle!
11. Across was indeed a pun on the intimidate ability Gyarados has, and totodile was chosen because of it's big jaw nickname and all the references to it biting things. I said deep because it's a water type, but now I think that was a bit confusing because it suggests something at the bottom of the ocean, and this little guy just comes from New bark town.
Johto is the theme, and Eureka! You got another. That was one of the trickiest ones, if not the hardest. I did have the original Brass Tower in mind, the light is the lightning said to have struck the tower and caused the fire that burned it, and the water is the rain that quenched the flames. I have got to give you a round of applause for that brilliant deduction.
2 across could be Sharpedo, potentially? it's a shark, therefore I associate it with jaws, and it could feasibly be found in the deep, although it's not a dive encounter or anything.
9 across, first thing that came to mind for some reason is RollerSkates. and I mean, it fits, though it's a total shot in the dark, since the "where" leads me to believe this is referring to a specific place.
11 across is definitely LakeOfRage, as ReKoil said.
Yes, you got Lake of Rage too! That's right. While #2 across Totodile, Sharpedo would have actually fit way better now that you mention it. Got give you a point for cleverness.
#9 isn't rollerskates, but you are right to think it's a place.
3rd Shoal Cave, I guess high tides-low tides prevent entering there in sunlight.
2nd Arrokuda
Arrokuda was another good guess for #2. While the answer was Totodile, some of these are honestly better answers then what I had, so giving you a point for a good idea.
#3 Isn't shoal cave, but that's a pretty good guess too. Shoal cave could have made a nice metaphor for guarded by the hidden sun since it's only accessible at certain times.
Come on guys, I know you can pull this one off! Rooting for my players! I'll send in the cheerleaders to get you guys pumped! just three answers away!
