Hey all!
I had this idea for a game that I thought could potentially be fun, so let's give it a go. It's called Poké Trivia Connection, and how it works is that you need to connect a Pokémon in the post above you to another Pokémon through some special bit of trivia or fun fact (ex. shared stats, size, weight, inspiration, numbers, etc...), and we'll see how long we can keep this going with minimal (or at least spread out) repeats.
However, to encourage more abstract trivia connections for greater fun (plus opportunities to unexpectedly learn something new), there are a few more "obvious" connections I'd like to rule out:
- Shared Typings (ex. Totodile connected to Mudkip via shared Water-type) - Shared Evolution Family (ex. Slowpoke connected to Slowbro) - Shared Name / Letters (ex. Cyndaquil connected to Cacnea via C, or Carbink connected to Carvanha via Car) - Shared Egg Groups (ex. Bagon connected to Charmander via Dragon Egg Group)
However, this doesn't mean that the above factors can't be used or involved in more unique or special ways, such as:
- From Bellossom to Mega Aggron because they both go from dual type to single type (Grass/Poison to Grass & Steel/Ground to Steel)
Speaking of which, all forms are game for this game, such as Megas, Gigantimax, Regional Forms, etc...
Anways, I think that explains it all... hopefully this makes sense! Let's just continue from my example and see if anyone has a bit of trivia to build off of:
