Porygon-Z attacks with a status move, but it does nothing. In the next turn, Porygon uses Move X again, and Porygon-Z's status move still does nothing.

In the next turn, Porygon-Z attacks first and destroys the Substitute. Porygon then uses Recover to heal half of its HP. In the next turn, Porygon moves first again with Move X again, and Porygon-Z uses Thunder. Porygon is hit, and faints. What is Move X?

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Bullet Seed is usually taught to particular Pokemon by TM, but a few select Pokemon are able to learn it by levelling up. Four Pokemon, including Remoraid, Octillery, and Mantine can learn Bullet Seed, yet are not Grass type. What is the last, Normal-type Pokemon that can learn Bullet Seed by level-up in the Generation V games?

Answer: Cinccino

For Cincinno, having evolved from Mincinno by the use of a Light Stone, it is actually impossible for it to learn Bullet Seed without the use of the Move Tutor. Ironically, Cincinno is also the only Normal-type of this generation who can learn Rock Blast by level up, and among three Pokemon that are not Rock-type that learn Rock Blast (the other two are Octillery and Wormadam in its Sandy Cloak).
2. In "Pokemon Diamond/Pearl", a Pokemon battle proceeds within a rainstorm, one side with a Level 55 Timid Porygon, another with a Level 56 Hardy Porygon-Z. Porygon-Z moves first, reducing Porygon's HP by half. The Porygon uses Substitute, reducing its HP by a third. In the next turn, Porygon moves first with Move X. Porygon-Z attacks with a status move, but it does nothing. In the next turn, Porygon uses Move X again, and Porygon-Z's status move still does nothing. In the next turn, Porygon-Z attacks first and destroys the Substitute. Porygon then uses Recover to heal half of its HP. In the next turn, Porygon moves first again with Move X again, and Porygon-Z uses Thunder. Porygon is hit, and faints. What is Move X?

Answer: Protect

Surprised? Detect and Snatch should be immediately eliminated from the possibilities as Porygon cannot learn them, leaving Magic Coat and Protect.

Magic Coat and Protect could have easily been Move X, as they are high-priority moves and will always hit faster (thus making Porygon faster despite Porygon-Z's obvious higher Speed), as any other move with a higher priority than Protect wouldn't have any effect on Porygon whatsoever (Magic Coat, Snatch, and Helping Hand only effect the user, except for Helping Hand, which only works in double and triple battles).

Magic Coat negates the effect of any and all status moves, which at first seems to fit within the story. Not so. Porygon was level 55, one level before it learns Magic Coat; therefore it couldn't be learned. Protect has a small fault in which 30% of Thunder moves in a rainstorm will hit. Porygon-Z could have easily bypassed the fault, thus defeating it with Thunder.
3. Meloetta, one of the last Pokemon in the National Dex up to Gen V, learns moves of many different types. At what two levels does Meloetta learn an attack move that does not give it STAB?

Answer: 26 and 43

Meloetta learns Acrobatics (a Flying-type move) at Level 26 and U-turn (a Bug-type move) at Level 43. Since Meloetta is Normal/Psychic OR Normal/Fighting type, it does not gain STAB.
4. Which of the following are listed in the correct order from highest to lowest for highest HP among Normal-types?

Answer: Blissey, Chansey, Snorlax, Slaking, Wigglytuff, Munchlax

Blissey held the infamous title of the highest HP of any Pokemon, at Base 255, with Chansey holding a close second at Base 250 HP. Snorlax comes at a Base 160 HP (#6 overall), Slaking falling right behind at Base 150 HP (#7 overall). Wigglytuff falls another 10 HP behind at Base 140 HP (#12 overall), and finally and surprisingly, Munchlax, coming in at Base 135 HP (#13 overall).
5. Techno Blast can be the most types of any move in one battle.

Answer: False

Weather Ball can be a total of six different types: Normal (under no weather condition or fog), Fire (under a sunny condition), Water (under a rainy condition), Ice (under a hail condition), Rock (under a Sandstorm condition), and ???-type (under a Shadow Sky condition).

Techno Blast can be five different types: Normal, Water, Ice, Electric, and Fire.
6. Which of the following moves was NOT previously a Normal-type move?

Answer: Mega Punch

Actually, Mega Punch has ALWAYS been a Normal-type move.
7. Lillipup is infamous for being able to learn Giga Impact as a basic Pokemon. At what level does it learn Giga Impact?

Answer: 40

At Level 40, Lillipup can learn Giga Impact by level-up at a lower level than any other Pokemon up to the fifth Generation. It is one of only four Pokemon who can learn Giga Impact by level-up and not be fully evolved, the others being Herdier, Axew, and Fraxure.
8. Moves have been programmed in the game by index number. Move number 1 is a Normal-type move. Which one of these is it?

Answer: Pound

Despite Scratch and Tackle being rather basic moves, Pound comes out as #1. Scratch's index number comes a little later at #10, and Tackle comes in at #33. Struggle does not show up until #165.
9. What is the Normal-type move with the HIGHEST index number?

Answer: Relic Song

Relic Song's index number is #547, while Techno Blasts falls right behind it at #546. Head Charge is #543 and Tail Slap is #541.
10. When Whitney rebattles the player in "HeartGold/SoulSilver, what is the highest amount of move types that you can see through the entire battle?

Answer: Seven

She uses Normal-type moves (Baton Pass, Wring Out, Fake Out, Assist, Double Team, Body Slam, Attract, Sleep Talk), Psychic-type moves (Calm Mind, Psychic, Rest), Electric-type moves (Thunderbolt, Thunder, Charge Beam), Ice-type moves (Ice Beam, Blizzard), Fire-type moves (Flamethrower, Fire Blast), Ghost-type moves (Shadow Ball), and finally, Water-type moves (Surf).
11. A trainer gets a Porygon in the Rocket Game Corner in "Pokemon Gold". The trainer nicknames it "Pixel", gives it an Upgrade, and trades it to a friend in "Pokemon Silver" for it to evolve. The "Silver" trainer returns the Porygon2 immediately after. The original trainer soon begins to dislike its nickname, "Pixel", so he takes it to the Name Rater and decides to re-nickname it. Which of the following names can the trainer NOT nickname it?

Answer: Porygon2

Because numbers cannot be typed in, the Porygon2 cannot be re-nicknamed as Porygon2.
12. Ambipom is one of two fully-evolved Pokemon that has the ability Pickup. What is the other Pokemon?

Answer: Linoone

Sentret and Patrat, the pre-evolutions of Furret and Watchog, respectively, never had Pickup. Persian's pre-evolution, however, had the ability Pickup. However, the ability changes to Limber upon evolution.
13. There were many prototype Pokemon names prior to the release of "Red/Blue". What was Lickitung's beta name?

Answer: Tonguetyd

Much like Lickitung has Tonguetyd, Chansey also had a beta name, "Lucky". Many Pokemon had beta names before they got their final names, for example, Skulkraken (Gyarados), Ny (Koffing), La (Weezing), Ness (Lapras), Stryke (Scyther), Recoil (Magneton), and, one of the strangest names, Man O War (Tentacruel).
14. In Generation V, Ditto gains the ability "Imposter" from the Dream World. Under which of these circumstances does Imposter not exactly copy the Pokemon, with the exception of HP?

Answer: The opponent's Illusion is in effect

Ditto will copy the Pokemon behind the illusion; as such, the Ditto will become Zorua/Zoroark instead of the Pokemon that the opponent is posing as.
