Why is it cheap? I was trying to do something different then usual.

Oh, and Mew is correct. Well, it's Shiny Mew, but you don't have to put shiny in front of it, I suppose. Nice job, Dan_Dunn!

Mew isnt blue though. He/she's pink

DCR10391
April 22nd, 2009, 05:21 PM
I know that. Anybody that has basic knowledge of Pokemon knows that Mew is pink, so I just assumed that he knew that too. I guess it was a bad idea to make it a shiny after all, because I don't know if someone who just puts the pokemon's name down without putting shiny in front of it knows that it's that color when it's shiny or not. I probably should have just accepted Shiny Mew only, though. Sorry about that.

April 22nd, 2009, 05:29 PM
If you already said it was a shiny pokémon before he guessed Mew, then there's no reason for people to get hissy about it. Mew is pink, but its shiny colour is blue. Mew was an acceptable answer in any case, although if the clue 'Is shiny' wasn't up there, they'd have to specify whether they mean its as shiny or not.

From now on people, take into account the player that thought of the pokémon MIGHT JUST think of a shiny!

Mr. Jack
June 7th, 2009, 05:17 PM
To make the bullet points you type:
{list}
{*}number one
{*}number two
{*}etc.
{/list}
Except with regular brackets, of course. And if you want the list to be numbered, just type =1 after the first "list" but within the brackets.

What do you mean by unknown location? As in, we don't know where it is, or you prefer not to disclose it?

Mr. Jack

I don't really like the "Isn't a legendary pokemon." Different people have different definitions of legendaries. For me, I wouldn't say that Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres (along with the dogs, Regis, and lake Pokemon) are legendaries. I just think that this needs a bit more clarification.

And with the "Has unknown location" depends on which game you are playing. Like how Ariados is capturable in D/P/Pt, but you have to evolve Spinarak in Fr/Lg.

Also, the part Grass could or could not apply to Wormadam, as Wormadam can be Bug-Grass, Bug-Steel, or Bug-Ground.

Sorry, I'm not trying to be nit-picky, but a few questions seem like the were poorly answered.

Anyway, did it evolve by leveling up?

Meh, I just re-read what I wrote and realized that it wouldn't matter what was said about my first question (unless Rotom would apply) as the Birds are the only dual-type, but they're Flying anyway.

And you're not stupid, so you'd go with an unknown location in every game, I'd assume.

Also, when most people think of Wormadam, they'd probably think of the Bug-Grass one.

I consider them legendaries. So, when you see, "Isn't a legendary pokemon"; that means they are excluded.

And with the "Has unknown location" depends on which game you are playing. Like how Ariados is capturable in D/P/Pt, but you have to evolve Spinarak in Fr/Lg.

I didn't think about that. If it had an unknown location in any game it would fit the clue tho.

And you're not stupid, so you'd go with an unknown location in every game, I'd assume.
