Shop-of-all-Trades
Greetings folks! With Tess' permission, I am now running the UPN SoaT.
Have a useless Shard, Apricorn or Shoal Item you've been wondering what to do with? Bring them to us and we can convert them into an Evolution Stone, Special Pokéball or Shell Bell. The rules are pretty simple. ::Shards:: Hand in your shard (with a link to where you received it) and you will receive a riddle. The answer is a basic Pokémon which you will be required to obtain through capture, trade or hatching (adopted Pokémon are not accepted). Return the Pokémon to me along with its level, gender and a link to where you obtained it. You get your stone and the Pokémon goes to the Adoption Centre. ::Notes:: * Once you have handed in your Pokémon, that Pokémon no longer belongs to you so it must be removed from your active party. You do not have the right to trade it to another member after it has been handed in for the completion of your quest. * Do not collect your stone until I have given you confirmation that the Pokémon you have handed in is the correct answer to your riddle. * Please be sure that you definitely want to complete your quest when handing in a shard because once you've submitted it for a riddle you cannot withdraw the shard to trade it away. If you no longer wish to continue with your quest, let me know and your shard will be tossed into the Shard Shop furnace and your riddle removed from the Active Quests list. ::Shards & Stones:: Red Shard -------> Fire Stone Blue Shard -------> Water Stone Green Shard -----> Leaf Stone Yellow Shard -----> Thunder Stone Gold Shard -------> Sun Stone Silver Shard ------> Moon Stone ::Apricorns:: Hand in your apricorn (with a link to where you received it) and you will be given 5 random questions relating to Pokémon in general. This could be Pokémon themselves or any questions regarding the games or animé. In order to successfully convert your apricorn into one of the special balls listed below, you will need to answer all 5 questions correctly. If even one is answered incorrectly, the finished ball will be taken to the Casino where it will go up as a prize in the Daily Pick Lottery. ::Nuts & Balls:: White Apricorn ----> Fast Ball Black Apricorn -----> Heavy Ball Blue Apricorn ------> Lure Ball Red Apricorn -------> Level Ball Pink Apricorn -------> Love Ball Green Apricorn -----> Friend Ball Yellow Apricorn -----> Moon Ball ::Shoal Salt & Shoal Shells:: Hand in 4 Shoal Salts and 4 Shoal Shells (with links to where you have received them) and you will receive a puzzle made by me. The puzzle is pretty simple so there's nothing to stress over, and while it shouldn't take long to complete, there is no time limit. Simply submit your answer when you are ready. ::Shell Bell:: 4 Shoal Salts + 4 Shoal Shells -------> Shell Bell ::Flutes and Furniture:: Hand in all of those useless piles of ash you've been collecting (with links to where you have received them), to receive something nice in return. No quest or problem solving riddles are required for these conversions, all you need do is wait till I've had some time to work on your items before returning to collect them. ::Flutes & Furniture:: Ash x25 --------> Blue Flute (Wakes a sleeping Pokémon) Ash x50 --------> Yellow Flute (Gets rid of Confusion) Ash x50 --------> Red Flute (Destroys Attraction) Ash x100 -------> White Flute (Wild Pokémon encounter rate rises - attracts wild Pokémon) Ash x100 -------> Black Flute (Wild Pokémon encounter rate decreases - repels wild Pokémon) Ash x600 -------> Pretty Chair Ash x800 -------> Pretty Desk ::Puzzles:: None for now! ::Questions:: None for now! ::Shard Quests:: biggggg5 I live on beaches And burrow into the sand, Don't try to touch my Or I'll snip off your hand! blazeVA Resembling a hat I live in the snow Amongst spears of ice is where I like to go, Warm weather will surely cause me to melt Yet my visits are said to bring prosperous wealth. enchantress Developing the muscles in my ears I take careful steps to look after my peers, Pink in colour they think I'm a girl But watch out for my needles will sting in one mighty hurl. Itzatrap Red and white, small and round I am not affected by sound, Get too close you'll be paralysed So when I explode you won't be able to hide. Upon the pond I love to skate Dancing out the figure eight, Secreting a lovely syrupy scent That forms upon my tiny head. When young I do not like to fight Preferring to hide or to take flight, But evolved you'd best not mess with me And when fully grown I race at Mach 2 speeds. I love things that sparkle bright Out under the gorgeous moonlight, But I don't like you so stay away Or with misfortune I'll make you pay. My shell is harder than diamond But it's a different gem I make, A nice round shiny ball of white Is what this bivalve can create. Some call me an insomniac For at night I do not sleep, I'll wait quietly for my chance to attack Bugs and rodents on whom I feast. jolteonjak I stand guard while my friends sleep And while on duty I will not eat, For when danger lurks I'll cry loud as hell As my voice is the ultimate warning bell. My wits may not be the quickest, but I'm always cheerful anyway. Cold water might be my home, but at night, I'll hunt for food, while moisturising with poison! Kairne When my breathing turns quite rough That’s when I’ll become very tough, My anger I can never hide So run or you will surely die. In the depths of the ocean where it is dark I light up brightly with an electrical spark, Positive and negative charges combine So I can talk with those of my kind. I dig through mountains in search of coal To burn in my body which is full of holes, The energy it generates makes me strong So that in battle I can do no wrong. I'm akin to Suicune's bell, with a seeping poison to protect myself - don't try to feed off me, because I'll come out on top! And besides, even if you do want a straight fight, there's strength in numbers, and there's a lot of me around here! You won't beat me in a staring contest. After all, I can predict when you'll give up! But I always move with a cheerful skip, though I can't wait until I can fly for real... I'm a very rare Pokémon indeed. I live outside Celadon City, but some people will never be able to find me at all, without help from a friend! My burning spirit can never be quenched - my fire is always burning inside me after all, but let's not split hairs, unlike another part of my anatomy. Want to find me? It won't be easy - even though I'm hidden in your back yard! I'm the only Pokémon common to these areas: a small garden in a vast ocean near the town it all began, a vast swamp that's become a tourist attraction, an enemy base in the shape of a diamond and the foot of a climactic mountain, where a champion awaits. Got to say, my defense system isn't great... When threatened, I probably become even more vulnerable to predators! But if I blind my opponent, I guess it's worth it. I can be intimidating without that though - just hear me roar! I'm the only Pokémon common to all of these areas - a cave where your movement is at the whim of the tide, a beautiful beach in the depths of winter and an enemy base, reopen for business... Psychic power is my speciality; it comes through being wise. Wise enough to mark the time in the blackest depths of night. When the sun comes out to play, I'll try to get my tan. And just you wait til I get big, I'll bloom in brilliant form! Throughout my life I'm never alone, my best friend's always beside me. We'll work together in sunshine and rain, and when I evolve, we'll have a new brother. Blind as a bat, but that's ok, my echolocation will save the day. Sunlight burns, so I live in caves, with swarms of my family to ruin trainers' days. pengyzu Please don't be fooled by my size For my strength may come as a surprise, I'm a Superpower Pokémon And will be stronger upon evolution. Pest I'm hotter than the mightiest flame For magma courses through my veins, In the heat I live and thrive But in the cold I'll surely die. I love to swim in rivers and ponds With my horn I'm surprisingly strong, White and gold with a billowing tail This Water Queen is as strong as a whale. I'm a little scavenger, that's why I'm so good to have by your side! I can pick up all sorts of things. Back in my glory days, I even found an Earthquake TM once... Of course, that wouldn't happen if I just wasn't so curious as to run all over the place! I'm a very helpful little Pokémon. I help my best friend become stronger in return for some shelter. But don't underestimate my own abilities - I'm a heck of a sharpshooter, and I've got some serious hustle too! My own signature move is my FeatherDance, but stealing yours is no problem for me. I roost among the forest trees and feast upon the bugs below. My first is in Horsea, but not in Kingdra. My second is in Shiftry, but not in Seedot. My fourth and fifth is in Linoone, but not in Zigzagoon. My last is in Squirtle, but not in Wartortle. Your final hint is that I'm from Sinnoh... What am I? Effect Spore vs. Regenerator, the choice is yours to bear. Personally, I dream of Regenerator, and rely on other Spores in battle. But if you try to capture me, I'll spray you with my poison! I'm a desert dwelling Pokémon, putting down my roots in sand. But the hotter the weather, the better I bloom, and water is no issue when you can survive a month without it! Some people hate to be alone, but me? I go positively bananas apart from my colony. I can't peel my favourite chestnuts, and with my short temper, that means bad times for anything in my path! I'm the only Pokémon common to these areas: a villainous tower in a desert region, a zone where trainers hunt for rare Pokémon against the clock of their own footsteps in Hoenn, a strange bush in the Sevii Islands, and a forest guarded by a powerful illusion mistress. Barrage is my signature move. No it's not, it's mine! No, it's mine! Mine! Mine! It's all of ours! Gosh, telepathy is a pain sometimes... The mystery of my feet is one that will forever remain unsolved. I can't stand the sun, it literally makes my blood boil, but I love to help out people on farms, tilling the soil for plants to grow! Don't laugh at me because I can't fly! When I'm big, I'm a real bird of prey. My armour made of bones is tough, but I won't need it soon. seakittenyfool I soar on updrafts across the sky And possess a unique cry, I nest on cliffs above the sea For water Pokémon are my favourite feed. Even after working out all day and night My muscles still feel very light, For I'm tough and never do get sore As exercise makes my heart soar. Shadowshocker East versus West... Is there any real difference at all? The mud is where I love to play, but don't squeeze me too tight - I'll spray my purple fluid, then Recover back my health. Silver Wind All round and globby My stomach to fill is my hobby Eating scrap i'll go forever Until everything is dissolved even leather. I curl up in a spiral while I rest But am quick to react to immediate threats, For although I am small I pack quite a bite So mess with me and you're in for a fight. For my strength I am renowned And love to heft my friends around, The heavier they are the better for me For as my muscles expand I fill with glee. My hide is dry And extremely tough, So I'll curl into a ball When things get tough. My wings are like cotton, my voice very sweet I preen all the time for I like to stay neat, Very friendly I'll often sit on your head And won't say no if you feed me some bread. I am small, and yellow too Feeding off the morning dew, I love the sun and it loves me I'll convert its warmth to energy. I have a vital spirit when I reach anger point If you're looking for a fight then I'll not disappoint, For a towering rage I'll reach before you catch a breath So run away if you're smart or you'll surely meet your death. Sneasel12 I love to swim in the sea The colder it is the happier I'll be, Breaking the ice with a point on my head Snugging up in the snow for a nice comfy bed. takkupanda Camouflaged upon the ground I'll hide while you hike up and down, Step on my head and you'll soon find I'll scare you out of your mind. I have a bulbous red nose and tail that stings But I am still a cute little thing, When evolved I'll cling to my favourite tree Before turning into a fearsome bee! Talon87 Spell my name backward and you have my class I like to slither amongst the tall grass, I'm silent and stealthy while hunting for prey The eggs of bird Pokémon I'll eat every day. tau I'm a Puppy Pokémon Adorable and cute, Unova's where I come from And I'm courageous to boot! Treepandaone As I become angry my breathing gets rough So you'd better watch out 'cuz I'm very tough, I'll fight anything even fiery pups Run while you can for I'll never give up. Rock Head or Sturdy Either suits me fine, A rock myself with big strong arms In the mountains I reside. When Sunny Day is in effect my speed is surely doubled Though I'm peaceful bug me and you'll find yourself in trouble, I wander the land late at night sowing my many seeds All the while taking cover beneath Nature's wonderful trees. Trepie If you look deep into my eyes You'll most likely find yourself hypnotised, I tend to do this when danger is near For I am but a cute little deer. Tuner89 I am one yet made of six Who spin around before we split, Cracks appear as we grow strong Preparing for evolution. My eyes see 360 degrees I perform aerial manoeuvres with ease, My wings can make a sonic boom That will shatter glass all over you. Tyoyo3131 A sweet sap from my tail does ooze Making it rather pleasant to chew, But should a mollusc clamp right on I'll begin stage one of my evolution. The humans live in wonder, And I can't help but too: Does the legendary Genesect dream? And if it does, does it dream of me? I'm quite the fashionista. I've always got a beautiful coat to protect me from the wind, no matter where I go. My brothers become fantastic moths, my sisters bigger bagworms, but at least they keep their coats when they do so. vegetunks937 With static electricity stored in my cheeks, I leap across the trees. A jagged tail and yellow flaps are my signature features, but watch out for my super speed; I'll zap you and be gone before you know it! Last edited by enchantress; 12-28-2014 at 08:58 AM. |

I'm having a great first day, aren't I? Further research has revealed that Marion Ette's answers to her quiz are actually correct. So, this Level Ball is now hers. Marion, once again, I apologise.

I can be found in many places across the world of Pokémon! In fact, I'm the only Pokémon common to all of these places. A downhill slope that's a wild thrill ride. A beaten down town of thieves and ruffians. An incredible volcano, where a legendary Pokémon awaits. A mountain pass that allows you to get around a desert. What am I? I'm a very timid Pokémon. In fact, I like to shield myself with lots of wall techniques in battle because of that. I love them so much, that if you level me up a little bit, I'll learn three of them all at the same time! Hey, do you smell that? I'd better be off, but before I go - what am I? Tree roots are my favourite, They'll make me big and strong. But it's not just me that they'll help out, Because then you can live for long! ... Oh God that final line bleuuuuuuuuuuuuuurghkillmenow Last edited by SoS; 01-25-2013 at 07:23 PM. |

List five spinoffs that emerged from Generation 3 (Ruby-Emerald, Fire Red/Leaf Green). 5. If I add the heights of the three heaviest Pokémon of all, what do I get? Apart from vertigo. |

This busy week thing is starting to become a running gag. I've also been sick with the flu.

2. Discounting moves learned at (--/--), name three Pokémon who can learn three moves upon reaching a certain level (Note: If you require clarification on this, please say so as I feel I haven't worded it well). 3.
