Pokemon BrainStrain

Version 6

Admin Approved by Lady Vulpix

Workers: Knight of Time, Shadow Wolf

This game is similar in ways to Pokemon Hangman, The Riddle Game, and Lingo. However, it has some differences. To play this game, you are given the name of a Pokemon, but only the first letter. You are not given the number of letters in the Pokemon's name though, so to figure a puzzle out, you have to use a bit of logic. Basically, you have to guess Pokemon names that start with the same letter as the one being done (unlike in Pokemon Hangman, you cannot guess letters, you have to find at least one more of their positions through the guesses made, besides the first letter). The thing is, each time a guess is made, the one whose turn it is has to indicate how many letters the guess has in common with the Pokemon being done, if any (aka the same letter(s) in the same place(s) the guess has with the correct Pokemon, for example, if the Pokemon is Breloom, and someone guesses Bronzor, you'd post Br???o*, where the question marks each represent a single letter, and the asterisk represents at least one letter (hence why the asterisk is on the end when applicable). If someone correctly guesses the Pokemon, they will win a figurine of the Pokemon, and can now make their own logic Pokemon puzzle for everyone else to figure out.

When a puzzle is being done, individuals can make a max of 5 guesses each per puzzle, and there is a max of 9 incorrect guesses allowed on a puzzle, if a 10th incorrect guess occurs on a particular puzzle, the Pokemon that was being done is revealed, but nobody wins the figurine, and either me or Knight of Time will do the next puzzle (it's similar to what happens if the man hangs in Pokemon Hangman; a worker has to do the next puzzle if a "hanging" here happens).

In the event someone accidentally misspells the name of a Pokemon while another person is doing a puzzle, the person doing the puzzle needs to disregard the guess, since a misspelling of a Pokemon's name can still give away information. For such a situation, the misspelled guess isn't counted as an incorrect guess, thus no information comes out of it.

When someone here is doing a puzzle, you're welcome to use the BrainStrain Calculator, big thanks to Lady Vulpix for making this calculator.

A note on legendaries- even though they can come up here, only workers can give out legendary Pokemon figurines.

We'll keep track of what figurines have been awarded here. Also, you can now keep track of your own individual figurines in the Gallery, so whenever you win a figurine here, be sure to go there at some point to edit in your new figurine(s).

I just thought myself that it wouldn't be easy. But KoT, are there 4 or 5 question marks?

[Shadow Wolf]

Hmm, something is kinda off.... one has 4 question marks while the other one has five. I think it was just an accidental typo, though.

I'll go with Deerling.

EDIT: nope, ti doesn't fit. Anyways, I'll juet leave the guess there, since I thinkg Mika own this one.

[Knight of Time]

Yeah, I made an accidental typo...there were four question marks, but more importantly, Mikachu, you are correct, this one was a Dewgong.
