Vanilluxe won the advantage last challenge and shared it with Leavanny. Their advantage is that each round they receive an additional slightly more helpful clue.
Closeness will be determined by a number of traits such as type, pokedex order, height, weight, and name. It gets pretty complicated so do your best to take as much of those into account when making your decision.
Round 1 starts now and ends as soon as I wake up tomorrow
Who's that Pokemon?
Hint: A major character uses this Pokemon at a level before it's supposed to be at that evolution
Get going!
Updated 11:20 AM 11/4/2013
Ok I'll reveal the answer the same way the show does:
Who's that Pokemon? (commercial break) It's Hydreigon! (Hydreigon's cry)
I gave you the hint: A major character uses this Pokemon at a level before it's supposed to be at that evolution. So that narrows it down to:
Haxorus (Drayden B/W)
Bisharp (Grimsley B/W)
Hydreigon (Ghetsis B/W)
Whirlipede (Roxie B2/W2)
So you had a 1 in 4 chance at getting it right, unless you had the advantage, in which your chance was even better. So I'll list the players that advance to the next round along with their guesses
1.Leavanny-masterofflam: Hydreigon
2.Scrafty-redfrog45: Hydreigon
3.Volcarona-wifishark8: Hydreigon
4.Purrloin-dudeski7373: Hydreigon
5.Vanilluxe-DoubleJEspejwan6: Hydreigon
6.Joltik-ShinyStoutland: Hydreigon
7.Simisage-NegaSub: Bisharp (shares a type w/ Hydreigon and close to it in the Pokedex)
8.Zebstrika-TheZappingZebstrika: Escavalier (evolved Pokemon closer to Hydreigon in the Pokedex than any Pokemon below Zebstrika's choice, although there is no such thing as an underleveled Escavalier in the definition used. Karrablast evolves into Escavalier when traded with a Shelmet, which can happen when the Karrablast is at any level)
9.Axew-yymastaconfuctious: Herdier (no one uses an underleveled Herdier, they're all lv 16 or higher, which is when Lillipup is supposed to evolve into Herdier. But at least it's a Unova Pokemon)
10.Braviary-PokemonFanKH2: Raticate (not a Unova Pokemon but at least you picked an evolved Pokemon)
And these are the 4 players eliminated from the challenge
Cinccino-Bunpuffy: Chose Caterpie
Maractus-rocerdude404: didn't send an answer in time
Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999: didn't send an answer in time
Cofagrigus-THEDKA3: didn't send an answer in time
Alright so now the 10 of you move on to the next round.
Who's that Pokemon?
Hint: A Pokemon with no evolutionary relatives but is found in many routes, available before you have 8 gym badges and the Pokemon's name has an "O" in it
You have 12 hours to send me your guess. 6 players will move on while another 4 will be out of the challenge. And I'll send the 2 players who have an advantage their additional clue.
Updated 6:50 PM 11/4/2013
The whole 12 hours isn't up yet but since 9 players already responded and 8 of them got it right, the challenge ends now. Given the hints, the options were narrowed down to Throh, Audino, Emolga, Alomomola, and Druddigon. The answer, wait, I'll say it the correct way:
Who's that Pokemon? (commercial break) It's Audino! (Audino's cry)
Since there are only 6 spots in the final round, I gave it to the first 6 people who got the right answer, with the exception of Braviary (I'll explain why)
So the following players move on to the final round are
Axew-yymastaconfuctious
Joltik-ShinyStoutland
Volcarona-wifishark8
Scrafty-redfrog45
Simisage-NegaSub
Leavanny-masterofflam
And the following players are eliminated from the challenge
Vanilluxe-DoubleJEspejwan6 (just weren't fast enough)
Braviary-PokemonFanKH2 (you answered Raticate in the first round in an obvious failure to follow instructions so I didn't think it was right for you to progress under these circumstances)
Zebstrika-TheZappingZebstrika (picked Emolga)
Purrloin-dudeski7373 (you didn't respond....fast enough)
So it's time for the final round and I'm gonna make this a bit more vague than the last one but still reasonable (Given the standards of this challenge). The two closest win immunity.
Round 3
Who's that Pokemon?
Hint: An unevolved single-type Pokemon that evolves at a level later than 35
Good luck and get going! I don't think I have to put a time limit since you guys moved so fast last time. I think at the latest, the round will end this time tomorrow. Good luck and get going!
Updated 9:50 PM 11/6/2013
Who's that Pokemon? (Commercial Break) It's Mienfoo! (Mienfoo's cry)
So the winners of immunity are
Simisage-NegaSub: Guessed Mienfoo
Axew-yymastaconfuctious: Guessed Mienshao (my guess is that he meant Mienfoo but wasn't paying attention)
Sorry to these 4
Leavanny-masterofflam: Elgyem
Scrafty-redfrog45: Trubbish
Joltik-ShinyStoutland: Elgyem
Volcarona-wifishark8: Axew
I promise the next challenge will be a lot less luck based. And there might be one more luck challenge left MAX so don't worry. But I was hoping someone would start guessing a pattern and would try not to second guess yourself because that was the key to this challenge.
The pattern was that when this challenge started, I was hungry.
Hydreigon
Audino
Mienfoo
And I like ham. :P
So anyway, Axew and Simisage are immune but now for the twist. It's one I've used before and it's the last time I'll use this twist. Both Axew and Simisage must pick 1 other contestant to give immunity to. So in total, 4 players will be immune this round. Once Axew and Simisage make their choices, voting will begin.
Updated 7:20 PM 11/6/2013
Axew-yymastaconfuctious chose Volcarona-wifishark8
Simisage-NegaSub chose Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999
So Simisage, Axew, Bouffalant, and Volcarona all are immune for this vote.
Everyone, vote off two of the following Pokemon
1.Purrloin-dudeski7373
3.Zebstrika-TheZappingZebstrika
4.Leavanny-masterofflam
5.Maractus-rocerdude404
6.Scrafty-redfrog45
7.Cofagrigus-THEDKA3
8.Cinccino-Bunpuffy
9.Vanilluxe-DoubleJEspejwan6
10.Joltik-ShinyStoutland
13.Braviary-PokemonFanKH2Explain your votes, send confessionals, and make sure you vote off TWO players, not one. The elimination will take place either tomorrow night or Friday, depending on when I get enough votes. It's an even numbered elimination so there will not be any revotes in case of ties. Whoever gets the number of votes first goes home so be sure to make a decision fast.

If only I understood the hint ; - ;
ReplyDeleteI say the hint for 3 was TOO vague.
