Game: Pokémon Hangman v.46 (M.A.)

[mr_pikachu]

ANNOUNCEMENT: mr_pikachu has created a Pokémon randomizer that will help you pick a Pokémon when it is your turn to post a puzzle. This will help make sure that every Pokémon will have an equal oppourtunity of coming up. Here is the link to it: The Official Pokémon Hangman Randomizer (http://pokemon-randomizer.greatnow.com/randomizer.html)

ANNOUNCEMENT: Randomizer Update! If you select an Unown plushie using the Official Pokémon Hangman Randomizer, it will also name what Unown form has been selected in parentheses, like "UNOWN (A)." Don't include this extra letter (or symbol) in the puzzle, however. Just tell the winner what the form is when you award the plushie!

Rules Editor For This Version: mr_pikachu
Hosts: mr_pikachu, Knight of Time, Number1ChanseyFan

I'm sure we've all played hangman when you're bored, or at least heard of it. Pokemon Hangman
was first created by Mist who is associated with the Charmander Central Club in giving out
"plushies" as prizes for people who guessed correctly. People began big collections of these
"plushies" when this game was first introduced to PCG, and I hope that people will extend
their big collections, or even start them, today.

Rules
Newest rules in Light Yellow

The rules of Hangman are fairly straight-forward. If you don't know them, then watch a few
people post and we're sure you'll get the hang of it. *sigh*

But we do have specific rules that we need to follow to make the game slightly trickier. You
may only post a maximum of THREE single letter guesses
per person before you must guess the name of the Pokemon. This rule is subject to change. But
for now it's THREE and only THREE single letter guesses per
person, per round. This shouldn't be too hard to follow. If you notice someone that has made
more than three single letter guesses then you should be smart and tell them so. :rolleyes:

When someone guesses the word correctly it is their turn to think of a Pokemon for others to
guess. Please make sure you don't mess up for other people's sake - Double check to see if a
letter is present in the Pokemon's name you're doing before you post to avoid mistakes. Also,
if it's your turn, try and pick a Pokemon that hasn't already been done. You don't need to
always pick evolved forms. The rarity of each plushie should remain the same so we have a
nice mix. You may only win a maximum of three plushies per day - This is to prevent a certain
group of people called plushie hogs grabbing all the stuff
every second turn. If you win three plushies you may still play, however if you win after
you've exceded the limit you must either A) Give the plushie to someone else who is less
fortunate or B) Do not take the plushie as a prize. Just make sure everyone has a fair go
too! This is only in effect for 24 hours after you've received the first of your three plushies for the day.

Legendaries can be won here, but only a worker may give them out. Anyone else may not. If
this were possible we'd have legendaries popping up everywhere, and they deserve a rarity.
Specialized plushies may also be won here, like a Shiny Claydol, or a Pikachu with a Blue
Scarf... the list continues, and only the workers may give them out. You won't know if you've
won one of these very rare plushies until you win the plushie.

The only pokemon that aren't allowed to be done by the players here are: Zapdos, Articuno,
Moltres, Mew, Mewtwo, Lugia, Ho-oh, Celebi, Raikou, Suicune, Entei, Regirock, Regice, Registeel,
Jirachi, Deoxys, Groudon, Kyogre, Latios and Latias. All others are fine.
Oh, and please don't do any Pokemon from the upcoming Diamond and Pearl games yet, either.

You are allowed a maximum of NINE incorrect guesses before it's Game
Over, not per person, that includes everyone's incorrect guesses. Usually people guess the name before the nine incorrect guesses so don't worry. If no one guesses the Pokemon correctly by the quota then no one receives a plushie, and one of the workers must do the next puzzle. You don't get two turns in a row at it.
You may only post one guess until the person posts an update of the current Pokemon.

Try and not be too idle, the workers would like the game to be fast moving. If you guess the
Pokemon correctly and then you're going to be away for 2 weeks then don't wait until you get
back because you'll most likely forget about the game. Give someone else a turn.

Right now, an incorrect letter is counted as 1 incorrect guess and incorrect Pokemon are also
counted as 2 incorrect guesses. This is also subject to change later on to improve/decrease
the difficulty, if any of the workers think it's needed.

Absolutely no editing your guess at the name or a letter. If you plan to edit your post and
notice a late spelling mistake and want to change it then specify so. Don't use this as an
excuse to change your guess because you might have someone who witnessed you with your
previous guess. You'll be in big trouble then.

The scores are no longer being updated - if a worker wishes to spare the time to restart the
scores and keep track of everyone then they may do so.


If it is your turn to post a puzzle, you have 24 hours to post or update the puzzle. In the
case of updating, this applies to four situations:

1. When someone makes a letter guess, and it is in (or not in) the puzzle (this also applies
to letter guesses in advance).

2. When someone makes a Pokemon guess, and it is wrong/right

3. When so many guesses are made that the man might hang (this also applies to letter guesses
in advance as well)

4. When you have yet to post after winning a plushie

If you don't post 24 hours after any situation above, you will lose your turn, and one of the
workers will start the next puzzle. (note: the 24 hour rule doesn't apply to the workers).

If you make an incorrect Pokemon guess by accident, you aren't allowed to delete it and make
a new guess before the person whose turn it is updates.

When you are guessing the name of a Pokemon on anyone else's turn, you must spell the Pokemon correctly in order to win a plushie of that Pokemon. Example of this rule in action: Let's say someone guessed "Picachu" as their answer to a puzzle, and then another person afterword guesses "Pikachu", if the puzzle is indeed Pikachu, the person who posted second would get the plushie, since the first person spelt it wrong. So please try and avoid making this mistake every time you guess a Pokemon. As for a counter-example, if the man is close to hanging, a correct guess for the Pokemon that is spelled incorrectly will unfortunately make the man hang if there are 1 or 2 guesses remaining, so be careful about this.

Also, if it's your birthday, you're more than welcome to pick any plushie you want for your birthday (excluding legendaries and D/P Pokemon), however, you cannot pick a shiny plushie, as they are obviously rarer than legendaries. When it is your birthday, just post here saying what regular coloured, non-legendary plushie you want (again, you cannot choose a D/P Pokemon either until D/P are released here in North America), and one of the workers will give you your plushie on their next post.

Plushies

What is a Plushie?

Plushies are soft toys. In this game, if you guess a Pokemon correctly you receive a soft toy
of the Pokemon you guessed correctly.

What do I do with a Plushie?

Umm... look at them? They aren't really used for anything, mainly just a fun collecting sort
of thing. That's all. Maybe one day they might be used for something, but that's a doubtful
possibility. If you have a site it might be wise to put them on there to keep track of what
you have. Or keep them on a word document.

I don't like my plushie! Can I trade with someone else?

Yes, you may as long as the other person agrees. If they don't want to trade with you then
you should respect that. There are many others that may want to trade. Since this game was
created long ago some people may already have a decent amount of plushies they might like to
trade. You could try sending a PM/IM to one of them if you would like to trade or ask for a
list of their plushies. Most people who play Expedia have plushies, so try trading with one
of them, or you could start playing the game to extend your collection a different way.

Can I sell my plushies? Or buy one off someone?

No, you may not sell your plushies for CCPs or Stamps.

How many plushies am I allowed to own?

As many as you can win here. Just remember you can only win a maximum of three every day!

Final Words

ONLY post the names of Pokemon. No dictionary words! That is if you haven't been bothered to
read the rules, which I recommend reading. There are well over 300 Pokemon to choose from so
good luck! (And again, please don’t do any Pokemon from the upcoming Diamond
and Pearl games yet.)

If there's something you don't understand then ask Knight of Time, Number1ChanseyFan or me - we bite but we'll still help. Or maybe someone else can help. Have fun! Your hosts and hostess- mr_pikachu, Knight of Time, Number1ChanseyFan

The man has been hung a total of thirty-two times
Hangman makes up approximately 1/5 of the total posts in PCG since last year; considering
this game began in very late April.

[mr_pikachu]

Obey the mighty gut!


_ _ R _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: S
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 8

[Blademaster]

An R and no S...

Let's try an N this time.

...Please?

[mr_pikachu]

Begging is a sign of weakness.


_ _ R _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: S, N
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7

[Blademaster]

Begging is a sign of weakness.

OK, then...

Give me an E.

Now.

[mr_pikachu]

Such impudence from one who is so weak will not be rewarded!


_ _ R _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: S, N, E
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 6

[Blademaster]

OK, smart guy, two questions:

1. What movie did you steal that line from?

2. Is this the Bonekeeper Pokemon, AKA Marowak?

[mr_pikachu]

1. The majority of the "lines" I use are improvised on the spot. That one is included among the improvisations.

2. For one so obsessed with the afterlife, you certainly are a foolish mortal...


_ _ R _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: S, N, E, Marowak
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 4

[Blademaster]

Stop mocking me with your superior intelligence!

I can find 2 more possibilities; the first is my beloved starter, Sandy's species.

So...

Is this Torchic?

[mr_pikachu]

To quote many movies, television shows, and other productions: love conquers all...

Congratulations, Blademaster! You win a Torchic plushie!

[Blademaster]

Huh... I was determined not to let this plushie get away; now I know why.

(hugs plushie)

Now, on with the game!

(pushes Randomizer button)

Hmmmmm... Interesting...

Well, one of you two will win so...


S in advance please.

[Blademaster]

Damn... that was fast.

And the winner is Kyle, who has just snagged a Wobbuffet plushie! Nice job, K-Man!

(tosses a Wobbuffet plushie)

And now... I'm outta here.

(runs off)

[mr_pikachu]

Well played, Kyle! I'll take an R in advance, please.


EDIT: By the way, I'd like to make an open trade offer. I've got an extra copy of Dewgong, Magby, Magneton, Mankey, Snubbull, Togetic, and Venomoth. I'd be happy to trade any of those for any plushie that I don't already own (I only have 129 species, so I probably won't have whatever you offer). Does anyone have any thoughts about a trade?

EDIT2: Edited the list based on trading activity.

[Blademaster]

A in advance for me.

And your Treecko has caught my eye, mr_pikachu. Anything you like in my sig is yours, except the Poochyena and Wigull lines (I don't wanna split up the lines now that I have both, as it'll be a loooooong time before I find another one, I bet.).

[mr_pikachu]

Hmm... well, want to trade Grass starter evolutions? How about my Treecko for your Ivysaur?

[Blademaster]

Damn, that was fast.

OK, mr_pikachu, you got a deal.

(edits)

^_^

[mr_pikachu]

Thanks for the trade, Blademaster! *edits list*

Anything else catch your eye?

[Inferno_Dragon]

Can I get an E in advance?

[Number1ChanseyFan]

[color=magenta]C in advance please.

[Knight of Time]

'does the happy dance'

Well, you guys may find this hard to believe, but this Wobbuffet plushie is my 200th plushie!

Thanks a million, Blademaster. :)

Okay, next up:

Pokemon: Arca---e

Incorrect Guesses: n/a

Guesses Remaining: 9

Ooh, you guys made the right advanced guesses here, so I'm betting one of you will know this one, easily.

Hey, Blademaster, just wondering, but why are your plushies up for trade? I really thought you were planning to keep all your plushies... :confused:

[Ghost]

Could it be Arcanine?

[Blademaster]

Sure thing, Kyle.

Man, you're the best Hangman player at TPM and you've barely reached the halfway point...

(scratches 'Get a full collection of Hangman plushies' off the Things to do While at TPM List)

:lookout:


Hey, Blademaster, just wondering, but why are your plushies up for trade? I really thought you were planning to keep all your plushies... :confused:

I do - they're up for trade, not up for sale. I'm just keeping the line open in case anyone wants one, or if I see one up for grabs that I might like.

...

Uh, while I'm here, E in advance, please!

[Inferno_Dragon]

Can I get an A in advance please?

[Shadow Wolf]

Well, I'm sure that ghost guessed right so...

S in advance please.

[Knight of Time]

Could it be Arcanine?


Yeah, this one's an Arcanine, Ghost.

'hands you an Arcanine plushie'

Take it away, and I'll have an R in advance.

Blademaster, just wondering, but do any of my Pokemon doubles listed in my sig interest you?

[Blademaster]

...

Minun and Lapras, maybe?

[Knight of Time]

...

Minun and Lapras, maybe?


Sure, if you don't mind trading me your Torchic and Scyther plushies, Blademaster.

[Blademaster]

Well, I already have a real Torchic... OK, a Combusken, but either way I guess I don't need a plushie of one...

OK, Kyle, you gotta deal.

(edits sig)

Nice doing business with you! :wave:

[Ghost]

ok then... Thanks for the Arcanine ^^'

_ R A _ _ _ _ _ E (9)

[Knight of Time]

Ooh, is this a Dragonite?

[Ghost]

Damn it, Yes, it is. *throws plushie*

A in advance.

[Knight of Time]

All right, a Dragonite plushie, now this is one I've been waiting for, especially since I used to have one (from Expedia that is).

Thanks Ghost! :)

Okay, next up:

Pokemon: -a--a-

Incorrect Guesses: n/a

Guesses Remaining: 9

[Inferno_Dragon]

Is there a T in the puzzle?

[mr_pikachu]

I think I'll take a wild stab at a Latias.

[Blademaster]

Or maybe this is Magmar?

[Shadow Wolf]

Well, there's also a chance that this one could be a Lapras, right?

[Knight of Time]

I think I'll take a wild stab at a Latias.




Or maybe this is Magmar?




Well, there's also a chance that this one could be a Lapras, right?


Okay, three guesses here, including a legendary guess, but the question is, who gets this one?

This plushie goes to none other than mr_pikachu for his correct guess of Latias! Blademaster, shinypkmnchaser, better luck next time you two.

'hands mr_pikachu a Latias plushie'

Take it away, and I'd like an R in advance, please!

Edit: I see that's your second Latias plushie, mr_pikachu (I checked the previous version and found you won one already). You want to trade one of my doubles for it? It would be nice to receive another legendary plushie in my collection. :)

[Inferno_Dragon]

Can I get an E in advance?

[Mega Horny]

Actually, KoT, I kind of asked Mr. Pikachu a while back, before he got the plushie...but...*shrug* whatever he sees fit.

[mr_pikachu]

Wow, awesome! Thanks for the Latias, Kyle! My first double legendary... hee hee! ^_^

Okay, here's the next puzzle!


_ _ _ _ _ _ E R _ (9)

Incorrect Guesses: N/A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9


Good luck!


P.S. Regarding the trade offer, I'll ask a quick question... do either of you two have a legendary plushie that you'd be willing to trade? I'd prefer to swap legendary for legendary, if possible. (If neither of you has one, then I'll trade for any of Mega Horny's tradeable plushies that I don't already own.)

[Knight of Time]

Well, I did have two Mewtwo plushies at one point, but I traded one to Amy.

Is this an Octillery?

[mr_pikachu]

Bingo! You win an Octillery plushie, Kyle!

Mega Horny, I guess the only question that remains is what you'd be willing to trade. Would you mind putting up a trade list, or sending it to me, or something? Thanks. ^_^

[Blademaster]

T in advance, please.

Also, while I'm here, I wanted to ask something:

Who do I ask about a birthday plushie?

[mr_pikachu]

Any of the workers here: me, Kyle (Knight of Time), or Christen (Number1ChanseyFan). What plushie would you like, Blademaster?

[Number1ChanseyFan]

T in advance, please.

Also, while I'm here, I wanted to ask something:

Who do I ask about a birthday plushie?
[color=magenta]Any of the Hangman workers can give you a plushie, Knight of Time, mr_pikachu, or myself. You can PM one of us if you would like, or else just post your request in this topic and one of us will give it to you!!

Oh, and S in advance please!!

EDIT: Well, mr_pikachu pretty much answered your question for you before I posted!! ^_^ :)

[mr_pikachu]

Oh, one more thing - you can't choose a legendary Pokemon as your birthday plushie, either (sorry!). But anyway, just let us know what Pokemon you want. We aim to please!

[Knight of Time]

Oh, one more thing - you can't choose a legendary Pokemon as your birthday plushie, either (sorry!). But anyway, just let us know what Pokemon you want. We aim to please!


Just to also clarify on what mr_pikachu said, you also can't choose a shiny version of a plushie, either (after all, they are rarer than legendaries), sorry.

Anyway, thanks for the Octillery plushie mr_pikachu, it's new. :)

Okay, next up:

Pokemon: --st--

Incorrect Guesses: n/a

Guesses Remaining: 9

[Inferno_Dragon]

Is there an A in the puzzle?

[mr_pikachu]

Hmm... is this a Dustox?

[Knight of Time]

There is an A here, so I'm afraid it isn't Dustox, sorry.

Pokemon: -ast--

Incorrect Guesses: Dustox

Guesses Remaining: 7

[Inferno_Dragon]

Is it the Pokemon Gastly?

[mr_pikachu]

Ah, nice one, Inferno!

I know he's got it, so I'll take an R in advance, please.

[Knight of Time]

Is it the Pokemon Gastly?


Yeah, it's a Gastly, Inferno_Dragon.

'hands you a Gastly plushie'

Take it away, and I'll have an A in advance please.

[Inferno_Dragon]

That would be my fifth or sixth Pokemon Plushie.

Here is the puzzle.

_ A R _ _ A _ A

Incorrect Guesses: 0

Guesses Remaining: 9

[Knight of Time]

Well, I already have one of what this one is, so I'd like to guess an R in advance for the next puzzle, please.

[mr_pikachu]

I think this may be a Hariyama.

[Inferno_Dragon]

Good Job, mr_pikachu.

Here is your Hariyama plushie.

I would like an A in Advance for the next puzzle.

[mr_pikachu]

Ah, thank you, Inferno! That's another new plushie for the collection! ^_^

Here's the next one!


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: R, A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7


Good luck!

[Inferno_Dragon]

Is there an E in the puzzle?

[Knight of Time]

How about an I?

[Blademaster]

Or, to continue the pattern, an O?

And the plushie I want is a Porygon2, to go with my Porygon. :D

[mr_pikachu]

Hmm, this should help.


_ E _ O _ O _ _ (8)

Incorrect Guesses: R, A, I
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 6


And Blademaster, you get a Porygon2 plushie! Happy birthday! ^_^

[Inferno_Dragon]

Is it the Pokemon Venomoth?

[mr_pikachu]

Wow, you're on a roll today, Inferno! You've won a Venomoth plushie!

[Inferno_Dragon]

I know this is the first time I have had won two plushies in a row.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: 0
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 10

[Knight of Time]

Um, there are supposed to be a max of 9 incorrect guesses (remember, an incorrect Pokemon guess counts for 2 incorrect letter guesses), not 10.

Is there an I?

[mr_pikachu]

I'll take an R, please!

(And actually, there should only be nine incorrect guesses remaining when a game starts. Just to let you know.)

[Inferno_Dragon]

Sorry, my brain is not working right now.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ (7)

Incorrect Guesses: R, I
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7

[Knight of Time]

Hmm, let's go for an O then.

[Blademaster]

Sweet, thanks, mr_pikachu!

(adds plushie to collection)

Is there an N?

[Inferno_Dragon]

There is an O amd N in the puzzle.

_ _ _ _ _ O N (7)

Incorrect Guesses: R, I
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7

[mr_pikachu]

Could this be the unique Kecleon?

[Inferno_Dragon]

Yes, it is Mr_Pikachu.

Here is your Kecleon Plushie.

And that is enough Pokemon Hangman ... for right now.

[mr_pikachu]

Excellent, that's another new plushie! Thank you, Inferno!

Well, here's the next one!


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (10)

Incorrect Guesses: N/A
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 9


Good luck!

[Knight of Time]

Darn, missed out on a plushie I overlooked, oh well...

Is there an I?

[Blademaster]

Crap... forgot all about Kecleon... Aw, well...

A please.

[mr_pikachu]

There is no "I" in "plushie."

Wait, there is. Um... There is no "I" in "winner."

Oh no, hold on. Ah, let's see. There is no "I" in "victory."

...

...Screw it.


A _ _ _ _ A _ _ _ _ (10)

Incorrect Guesses: I
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 8

[Knight of Time]

Hmm, is this an Aerodactyl?

[mr_pikachu]

Quite right! You win an Aerodactyl plushie, Kyle!

[Shadow Wolf]

Whoa, everyone played a lot today, well, congratulations to everyone for your plushies.

S in advance please.

I have noticed that a lot of people forgot about my advance guess, probably because I posted my advance guess before the plushie is given, so this time, I will post after the plushie is given so my guess isn't forgotten. Sorry if this is kinda embarrasing for everyone. :sweat4:

[Knight of Time]

Sweet, another new plushie, thanks mr_pikachu!

Well, I kinda feel a little crazy about posting this next one (if anyone wins this next one, you'll understand well no doubt), but nonetheless, next up:

Pokemon: ------s

Incorrect Guesses: n/a

Guesses Remaining: 9

[mr_pikachu]

Could this Pokemon be a Moltres?

[Shadow Wolf]

Or maybe an Ariados, right?

[Knight of Time]

Could this Pokemon be a Moltres?


Guess this one was too easy...

Yeah, this was a Moltres mr_pikachu.

'hands you a Moltres plushie'

Incase you're wondering, these days with the randomizer, I've made a list of plushies to give out for each time it's my turn, and it was by sheer luck that on the same day (I think) that I rolled Latias for a second time, that Moltres came up. Nonetheless, take it away, and I'd like an R in advance please.

[Shadow Wolf]

Whoa, lucky guess for you mr_pikachu, Congratulations

S in advance please.

[mr_pikachu]

Okay. I have a conflict of interest here... I need to ask for a fellow worker's clarification about an ambiguity in the three-plushies-a-day rule.

When counting the number of plushies won in a single day, do you go by when the winning guess was made, or when the puzzle poster announces that the guess was correct? (I'll clarify what I'm trying to ask with an example. If someone makes a correct guess on, say, Monday, and the puzzle poster announces that the guess was correct on Tuesday, then does the plushie get counted toward Monday's total or Tuesday's total?)

And by the way... what happened to our simplified version of that rule? I didn't even realize it was gone...

In the meantime, I'll post the next puzzle.


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (10)

Incorrect Guesses: R, S
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7


Good luck!

[Mega Horny]

a maybe?

[Shadow Wolf]

How about an I?

[mr_pikachu]

Nice choices!


_ I _ _ _ _ _ _ A _ (10)

Incorrect Guesses: R, S
Incorrect Guesses Remaining: 7

[Knight of Time]

Hmm, about this situation, I'm 100% sure that even if a puzzle has only one possibility at any time, the plushie doesn't officially become part of the collection of the person who guessed correctly (e.g. if I made a guess tonight on a given puzzle, and it was right (whether or not it was the only possibility) and found out my guess was correct the next day by seeing it was given to me at 12:01 a.m. my time or later, then I'd record in the handy file of mine that helps me keep track of everything Hangman and Ac/CC related that I won the plushie on the next day), but that's just my two cents.

Is this a Hitmonchan?

[mr_pikachu]

Puzzle: Yes, this is Hitmonchan! Well played, Kyle!


Three plushies a day: Okay, that's all I needed to know. Let's see, then... who deserves a Moltres... *begins mental deliberations*

[Shadow Wolf]

Well played Kyle, S in advance please

[Knight of Time]

I'm confused here, do you have two Moltres plushies, mr_pikachu?

Anyway, thanks for the Hitmonchan plushie, now I have plushies of all three Hitmons. :)

Okay, next up:

Pokemon: S------

Incorrect Guesses: n/a

Guesses Remaining: 9

[mr_pikachu]

Plushies won today:
Latias
Hariyama
Kecleon
Moltres

Therefore, I have to give up the fourth plushie, which was Moltres. (I didn't realize it until after I had already made the guess... otherwise I wouldn't have tried to win.)

I will avoid guessing any more Pokemon today. Let's try an R.

[Knight of Time]

Ah, well, since I used to have a Moltres plushie (it was a special one though, bluish wings; I believe I got it from Jay one time for catching someone breaking the rules in one of the older versions from either 2002 or 2003)...

Pokemon: S------

Incorrect Guesses: R

Guesses Remaining: 8

[Shadow Wolf]

Maybe an E can help (at least a little)

[mr_pikachu]

I'll add an I to that.

[Blademaster]

Let's see, then... who deserves a Moltres...

(raises hand)

:D

Is there an M?

[Knight of Time]

Well, there is an E in this one, but there isn't an I nor M...

Pokemon: S-e----

Incorrect Guesses: R, I, M

Guesses Remaining: 6

Edit: Oops, forgot the R from before...

[Shadow Wolf]

Hmm, could this be a Swellow?

[mr_pikachu]

I know there must be an L here.


EDIT: Okay, I've made my decision. I'm giving the Moltres to the person who I think probably would've won it anyway if I hadn't taken the prize. So...

...

Louis (a.k.a. shinypkmnchaser), you get a Moltres plushie! ^_^

[Number1ChanseyFan]

[color=magenta]Is this Pokémon Shelgon?

[mr_pikachu]

Okay, in response to your PM, MH (ha ha), how does a Latias-Vulpix trade sound?

[Mega Horny]

Sounds Great! *edits sig*

[Knight of Time]

[color=magenta]Is this Pokémon Shelgon?


Yeah, this one's a Shelgon, Christen.

'hands you a Shelgon plushie'

Take it away, and I'll have an R in advance please.

[mr_pikachu]

Nicely done, Christen! I'll take an S in advance, please.

[Shadow Wolf]

Well played Christen, congratulations

I in advance please.

(not me, the letter)

EDIT: By the way, thanks for the plushie mr_pikachu, I really appreciate it.

[Number1ChanseyFan]

[color=magenta]Yay!! Thanks for the Shelgon plushie!! ^_^

The advanced guesses were pretty good, this plushie might go pretty soon.

[Knight of Time]

Nice one, Blademaster. R in advance, please.

[Blademaster]

Wrong guesses: S
Guesses left: 8

[Shadow Wolf]

Hmm, a few choices here...

Is this one a Cacturne?

[Blademaster]

Jesus, you gotta be kidding me...

Yes, it's Cacturne...

(hands over a Cacturne plushie)

Seriously, guys, this is getting too easy. We should add attacks, abilities, items, or something, just to make this game interesting again.

[Shadow Wolf]

Alright, my 20th plushie, only 366 plushies to go (excluding shinies).
