Pokédex Trivia

Pokédex Trivia gives you a real Pokédex entry with the Pokémon's name redacted and asks you to name who it describes. It's the closest thing to being a Pokédex researcher: read the flavor text, decode the clues, and guess in six tries.

Every entry is sourced from the official games, and a brand-new redacted entry is published every day. Great practice for Pokémon quiz nights and a sneaky way to learn lore you've never bothered reading.

You get one Pokédex entry and six guesses. The Pokémon's name, any obvious form giveaways, and its evolutions are blanked out as ____.

The entry itself never changes; only your guesses accumulate. Get it in one for the cleanest solve, or grind through six attempts to keep the streak barely alive.

Habitat is the single strongest signal. "Found near volcanoes" narrows the pool from 1,025 to under 30. "Deep-sea trench", "tall grass in Kanto", or "ancient ruins" each cut a similar chunk.

Behaviour verbs beat physical descriptions. Words like "hoards", "mimics", or "lures" are almost always attached to a specific signature Pokémon (Meowth, Zorua, Chinchou) rather than a whole family.

If the entry mentions height or weight in vaguely superlative terms ("the largest", "one of the heaviest"), you're almost certainly looking at a pseudo-legendary or an outlier like Wailord, Snorlax, or Steelix.
