Only A Master Trainer Can Guess These Pokémon From Only 3 Hints!

The Pokémon franchise has successfully created a world in which they can easily introduce hundreds of characters every few years and everyone gets excited about it (which is more than what other franchises can say). Since its inception in the 90s, Pokémon has gained over 800 characters and is still growing. There might be some creatures that share some traits, but no two are the same, and it appears as if Game Freak won't be slowing down their creative train any time soon.

With just three random hints, are you capable of naming the various Pokémon of the first three generations in the franchise? Will you even be able to tell which creatures belong to the Kanto Region and which belong to the Hoenn Region? It's through these separate generations that we have even a little bit of hope in remembering all of the Pokémon created for the series.

These questions will test your knowledge and remembrance of the creatures through the first three generations. Considering they're older Pokémon, you'll have to search through the deep memories of your childhood in order to ensure that you get them all correct. Real Pokémon fans will be able to answer these questions with ease. If you struggle, then you might not be a true fan of the series.

Question 1

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Yellow. Electric. Mouse.

Not even casual fans could possibly get this question wrong. Breaking down the three hints, we have yellow. Often times, yellow in the Pokémon franchise is used to color a Pokémon who can use electric-type attacks. Appropriately enough, the second clue is electric, which tells you everything you need to know about how it performs in battle. The last clue is mouse. Most Pokémon are based on animals that appear in real life, and this yellow and electric creature happens to be a mouse.

Question 2

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Grass. Flower. Second.

Are these clues striking anything in your memory? Let's break them down for a simpler time. The first clue is Grass, which alludes to the Pokémon's type. Most grass types have access to moves that deal out status effects as well as heal their own stamina. The second clue is flower. This could hint at the fact that the Pokémon is either a flower or has one on its body. The final clue is second. Considering that most Pokémon exist in a line of evolution, perhaps this refers to that?

Question 3

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Bird. Mega. Ash.

Have any of these clues triggered some memory within your mind? Let's break down the clues. The first is bird. There are a lot of bird Pokémon in the franchise, so that clue doesn't break it down a whole lot. The second is mega. In Gen VI, Mega Evolutions were brought into the series and only select Pokémon were given one. The last clue is Ash. Ash is the main character of the anime and had several bird Pokémon over the years.

Question 4

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Magnet. Single. Steel.

Are any of these clues meaning anything to you? Breaking them down past the surface level, you should be able to find the answer. The first clue is Magnet. While most Pokémon are based on animals, this one actually has more traits in line with a magnet. The second clue is single, which is fairly self-explanatory. The final clue is steel. Steel was a type introduced in the second generation and was applied to pre-existing Pokémon that Game Freak felt deserved it.

Question 5

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Purple. Rat. Normal.

These clues are practically giving the answer, so if you haven't figured it out already, then we'll break them down. The first clue is purple. The color of this Pokémon is purple, so there aren't a whole lot of options in that department. The second clue is rat. This Pokémon is based on a rat. Even though rats are fairly undesirable critters, Game Freak looked to them for inspiration. The final clue is normal. Normal is another Pokémon type that is more of a filler when Game Freak didn't know how to classify them.

Question 6

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Salamander. Fire. Orange.

If these clues haven't given you a clear picture of who this Pokémon is, we'll break them down. The first clue is Salamander. This Pokémon (as you can tell by the picture) is based on a salamander. The second clue is Fire. Being one of the most popular Pokémon types, it's not hard to imagine what it does in battle. The final clue is orange. While most fire-type Pokémon are red, this one happens to be orange, which is fairly uncommon.

Question 7

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Water. Turtle. Cannon.

Can you guess who this Pokémon just by looking at these three clues? The first clue is water. Being one of the Pokémon types, those who have it are known for having powerful attacks that can affects the entire arena and everyone in it. The second clue is turtle. As you might've guessed, this Pokémon is based on a turtle. The final clue is cannon. Now where would a cannon fit in with a water Pokémon who just so happens to be a turtle?

Question 8

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Butterfly. Bug. Confusion.

Have you guessed who this Pokémon is just based on these three clues? The first clue, butterfly, is in reference to the type of creature that this Pokémon is based on. Bug, the second clue, refers to the type of Pokémon that it is. Bug types are strong against psychic Pokémon and have some very unique stat boosting attacks. The final is confusion. This refers to a psychic-type attack in the franchise that has a chance of confusing its victim.

Question 9

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Snake. Poison. Backward.

This Pokémon isn't hard to guess with these three clues. If you're still stuck, we'll break them down. The first clue is snake. This refers to the animal that this Pokémon was inspired by. The second clue is poison. Poison is another Pokémon type, and one that often results in severe poison damage. The final clue is backward. This one isn't in reference to a Pokémon's type, inspiration, or any sort of move, so it's up to you to figure out how it fits in.

Question 10

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Mole. Ground. Dig.

Cane you name this Pokémon with just these three clues. The first clue is mole. Moles, for those of you that don't know, are small creatures that make their home by digging through the earth. The second clue is ground. Ground is a Pokémon type where arena-affecting attacks like Earthquake and Magnitude exist. The final clue is dig. Dig is also another Pokémon move in which the user disappears beneath the earth for one turn before re-emerging with a powerful strike.

Question 11

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Fire. Fox. Brock.

Are any of these clues giving the Pokémon away. The first clue is fire. This Pokémon is another fire type that can learn a few useful attacks for dealing with grass, bug, and steel types.

Question 12

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Starfish. Orange. Five.

Are these clues giving away the identity of this Pokémon to you? The first clue is starfish. This Pokémon is based on a starfish, so it's easy to see where the inspiration comes from. The second clue is orange. Much like a normal starfish, this Pokémon is orange, which is slightly uncommon for its type. The final clue is five. Most starfish only have five limbs, so it makes sense that the number five would be crucial to this Pokémon.

Question 13

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Flytrap. Chomp. James.

Are these clues striking any memories within your mind? The first clue is flytrap. The venus flytrap is a plant that is famous for eating any unsuspecting bugs that walk onto its face, and that's what this Pokémon is inspired by. The second clue is chomp. Being based on a flytrap, it makes sense that this Pokémon would do a lot of chomping. The final clue is James. James is one of the members of Team Rocket in the anime and had a lot of interesting Pokémon.

Question 14

Flying is another Pokémon that is given to most creatures that have wings.

Question 15

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Squid. Poison. 80.

This Pokémon is quite unique, so you may have already guessed it based on these three clues. The first clue is squid.

Despite being based on a squid, this Pokémon was also given the poison type to help deal more damage. The final clue is 80. You'll have to do some thinking to guess how this one fits.

Question 16

Can you name the Pokémon with these clues? Horn. King. Ground.

Can you guess this Pokémon just by using these three clues. The first clue is horn. With Game Freak taking inspiration from dinosaurs, rhinos, and beetles, it makes sense that plenty of Pokémon would be given their own horns. The second clue is king. We know that kings, in nature, are fearsome warriors who protect their own and fight any invaders. The final clue is ground. Despite what the picture may tell you, this Pokémon also manages to be a ground type.

Question 17

Being inspired by a bull, this Pokémon has an appropriate temper and a physical build that makes it extremely powerful. The second clue is safari.
