So, after several rounds of voting you, the PokeFarm public have decided that you wanted an Espeon capable of Leading your team and passing off huge bonuses from Calm Mind!

I'm here to deliver, and the training is done! Below is the trivia event, but first just some basic rules.


:196: There will be 5 Espeons to give away.
:196: In order to qualify, you must submit correct answers to a trivia challenge.
:196: I will accept submissions until all Espeons have been awarded.
:196: Submissions can ONLY be made via Private Message.
:196: Answers discussed in the thread will be deleted and disqualify you from winning.
:196: The first 5 FULLY correct submissions will be awarded an Espeon.
:196: If you submit a set of answers and have some wrong, you may re-submit after I PM and tell you how many questions need changing.
:196: You may resubmit a total of 3 times but I must PM you each time.


Here are the questions!

Question 1: What is the purpose of the gem on Espeon's forehead? To enhance psychic abilities

Question 2: According to its flavor text in Gold and Silver, what does Espeon use to predict things? Air Currents on Fine Hair (I accepted either air or hair)

Question 3: What is the minimum level Eevee's happiness can be and still evolve into Espeon? 220 Happiness

Question 4: Which Pokemon shares the same species name with Espeon? Sunflora (The Sun Pokemon)

Question 5: We know that espeon can be a lead - What is another role on a team that Espeon's stats seem to be well suited for? General Baton Passer or Special Sweeper

Question 6: If you wanted an Espeon that knew Covet and Charm, which pokemon could you use as a father to pass them on? Teddiursa (Ursaring) or Skitty could do this

Question 7: What 'famous' in game trainer in generation II uses an extremely high leveled Espeon on their team? Red or Ash had a very high leveled Espeon as your final challenge in both gold and silver

Question 8: In our polls, give me 2 out of the 3 pokemon Espeon was in a run-off vote against. Any two of Umbreon, Crobat, Roserade

Question 9: What is the Poke-Power on the TCG card that pictures a shiny Espeon? Purple Ray

Question 10: Take the square root of Espeon's national dex number, then add to that the tm number of Psychic, multiply that by the TM number of Calm Mind, add the level at which eevee learns baton pass, then subtract the number of eeveelutions, then subtract 5. What pokemon is represented by that number in the National Dex? This one, when taking each step individually gives you a final answer of 196 - Its :196:!

Here are the details of our Pokemon:

Dex# 196, Espeon :196:
Will be holding Leftovers
Timid Nature
EV Spread: 196 HP, 122 Speed, 192 Special Defense (I think-whatever previous post said - i'm writing this from memory)

Moveset
~Baton Pass
~Calm Mind
~Psychic
~Substitute

All of these have 31 IV's in both Special Attack and Speed, I believe there is even one pokemon with 31 in 3 stats, and a couple others with random 30's.

Unfortunately I lost the text file in which all the IV's were stored, luckily I had them marked...I will now list each individual pokemon and will list the stats that are over 25! Remember that I guarantee they all have a 31 in speed and special attack.

In addition to Special Attack and Speed, I will list the high stats:

Espy1: Defense, Special Defense (chosen by Joinred1127)
Espy2: Special Defense (Chosen by Pikaluva13)
Espy3: HP, Special Defense (Chosen by Trombones13)
Espy4: No others quite over 25 - if i remember right this had pretty consistent IV's just no others outstanding (Chosen by Junee)
Espy5: HP (Chosen By PizzaGlove09)

Whit's Trivial Ranch - PM Your answers!! - I will announce winners in the thread as they happen.

Aww! I saw you creating this and got ready to search frantically for stuff. Now I have to wait?! The suspense shall kill me! ...or at least make me sad...or forget about it altogether before losing. :lol:

I love your events; they're like MREs, but Pokemon! :lol:

Whitdjinn
11-18-2008, 07:18 PM
The idea was, since so many people were involved with deciding what it should be, I wanted to give plenty of notice so that everyone with interest would be ready to go :)

Trombones13
11-18-2008, 07:19 PM
Good point...except that it adds to the competition! :lol:

Good luck, everyone! :-D

Whitdjinn
11-23-2008, 12:18 PM

cowmoo83
11-23-2008, 12:21 PM

joinred1127
11-23-2008, 12:22 PM

Congrats! I did too, but there was a bit of a problem... You can PM me, Matt, if you don't know what it was. Perhaps that was the problem between your first and second entries.

By the way...
I win this round, Matt! *shakes fist* :lol: *shakes Matt's hand*

joinred1127
11-23-2008, 12:30 PM
I'll PM you, because I don't know what you are referring to. :P

*shakes Kurt's hand* Looks like we're tied 1-1.

cowmoo83
11-23-2008, 12:31 PM
I fixed the one I got wrong and Im right for sure this time!:) wish me luck!

Sorgatani
11-23-2008, 12:33 PM

Trombones13
11-23-2008, 12:33 PM
I'll PM you, because I don't know what you are referring to. :P

*shakes Kurt's hand* Looks like we're tied 1-1.
*glares at joinred as if rivals* That we are, Matt, that we are. *lightning flies between Kurt's and Matt's glaring eyes* :lol:

I fixed the one I got wrong and Im right for sure this time!:) wish me luck!
Ooh, good luck, Brady! :-D

3rd tries the charm... I didnt actually get the one I thought i did wrong :p It was another... but now Im golden (apparently not Xp- I was more like a rusty color whatever that color is)

Whitdjinn
11-23-2008, 01:04 PM
Alright, everyone who has responded so far as either won, or unfortunately used all 3 responses, There are still 3 Espy's up for grabs!!

If you've been waiting to submit because you think you have no chance, its not true!! Go through the questions and you should be able to find the majority of the answers with a few good web searches!

For the two winners - let me know when you want to grab the espy's and if you want a specific nickname, right now they are named Espy1, Espy2, Espey3, etc...

PizzaGlove09
11-23-2008, 01:18 PM
Question 6: If you wanted an Espeon that knew Covet and Charm, which pokemon could you use as a father to pass them on?

is that plural or singular?

Whitdjinn
11-23-2008, 01:24 PM
I've been accepting both singular and plural answers.

PizzaGlove09
11-23-2008, 01:34 PM
when you say shiny, are you referring to a holofoil, or alternate coloration?

Whitdjinn
11-23-2008, 01:41 PM
The latter... (Alternate coloration)

Whitdjinn
11-23-2008, 01:48 PM

11-23-2008, 03:09 PM
Even though I didnt win, I still thought the event was fun! Great job Witt. The questions were sortof annoying, and I sorta failed one because of my lack of breeding experience... but the rest was awesome! Cant wait for your next event Witt! and congrats to all winnners:)
