CHALLENGE #4


It seems something has been left here... It's a link to the next challenge. But it seems to have been cut off! Oh dear. Could the missing part of the link relate to TEAM CHALLENGE #3 somehow?

Good luck!

Team Prize: If you manage to complete this challenge, everyone on your team can evolve a Pokemon!

ISSUE SOLVED. URL UPDATED.



*sigh* there is currently an issue where the website I used seems to keep going down. If you're not being redirected to the 00webhost main page when trying wrong URLs and instead getting a server error message, then it's not working :(

Sorry for the bother guys. It too me 2 hours this morning to try and find a place to upload stuff and it finally was working and now this happens x_x

I can't really do anything about it until I get home so please be patient and I will let you know when it's fixed :(

Do we include the code part in the URL? I believe we do but just checking for confirmation.

And the image. Thank me later.

I'm trying to match the image up with a sprite but I'm no good with sprites. ;n;

Morzone

Are those letters an Anagram? What could they be? The basic shape of the thing reminds me of jigglypuff, but I doubt it really has anything to do with it.

Chibi Altaria
07-22-2016, 03:08 AM
Not sure, I've been rearranging the letters as well but nothing so far. I figured the image might give a clue if we could find it. Or vice-versa. xD

It looks like a Blissey to me though the feet would be at a weird angle.

Dash
07-22-2016, 03:18 AM
The closest it looks to be is a Venonat.

http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/pokemon/images/a/ad/048Venonat.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/105?cb=20140328194045&format=webp

However, the sprites or images of it don't exactly line up with this.

Chibi Altaria
07-22-2016, 03:23 AM
I never said it was a Pokemon sprite, could be an item or something too. Who knows! xD

EDIT: "CODE WORD ANAGRAM" maybe? WHAT IS THE IMAGE.

Pokemon Trainer Sarah
07-22-2016, 04:28 AM
Keep up the good work guys! You can do it! :D

Soulmaster
07-22-2016, 04:43 AM
Yeah codeword anagram is really the only viable thing. why is it people only ever use anagrams. Get creative with ciphers people!

How did y'all get the specific link? That may give clues as to what needs to be done.


EDIT: We're fools. It is Venonat, except it's upside down! What to do with this I don't know now though.
The code for the hunt for us is Torch, but not sure if that is related.

Pokemon Trainer Sarah

You're on the right track!

the thing you want in the end is the name of a board and the page number which you need to search to find one of the items from the letter!

AWA1997
07-22-2016, 06:56 AM
I hate to say this, but I'll be of no help, I'm at a complete and utter mental block unless someone mentions something that would randomly put it together in my mind.

Pokemon Trainer Sarah
07-22-2016, 07:02 AM
Well you've got 3 clues.

1. Venonat
2. Codeword
3. Anagram

So it's got something to do with Venonat and codewords, like what Soulmaster was saying above.

And something to do with an anagram.

And in the end you need to end up with the name of a board and a number, so you know what page of the board to search in.

XD I caught that much, I meant in terms of my mind will not fit these pieces together without some sort of jarring realization. It just won't.

I'd help but the image is just a black box for me on my cellphone so good luck y'all. :/

We have all the clues from the image, I think. It was a venonat upside-down with an anagram of the phrase "Codeword Anagram". And our codeword for Venonat is Torch. That's what we have so far.

Noblejanobii
07-22-2016, 05:53 PM
So are we supposed to anagram torch or is that what came out of the anagram?

Blaquaza
07-22-2016, 05:58 PM
I'm also confused right now. One suggestion I have that will probably be of limited use is that anyone who has caught a Venonat could maybe look in the thread they found it for a clue, maybe. The name of the board could be the board that Venonat was found in, and the number could be the number of the thread that appears in the URL.

I have no idea, but it's my best guess right now. :3

Soulmaster
07-22-2016, 06:29 PM
Well Torch doesn't have any viable anagrams, so that can't be everything. Bla's idea sounds decent. I would but I don't remember where I found Venonat...

Also the other teams codewords are Heart and Neither. So Heart, Torch, Neither are all the codewords. Still not getting anything really from those anagrams.

Just kinda spouting random things in the hopes something will click. Also we should totally get a Skype/Discord chat so we can brainstorm all at once rather than just in here, and just general team fun. I could make one if peeps want.

AWA1997

There isn't a page 16 there, and it's 5 up from the bottom, but I didn't see it on page 5, so I don't think that's it.

Morzone

I've tried anagramming all the code words together and haven't gotten much luck. Though a few numbers have come out of it.

thirteen, with letters ACEHHORRT left over

Three, with letters ACEHHINORRTT left over

Ten, with letters ACEEHHHIORRRTT left over

one, with letters ACEEHHHIRRRTTT left over

Not really sure if this leads anywhere but figured I'd put it out there.

Yep, I'm about as useless as a rock here. This is beyond my mental capacities. good luck everyone.

Did Fate solve this in five minutes? Because if he did then I'll feel really stupid.

Chibi Altaria
07-23-2016, 11:12 AM
Faaten did NOT solve it in five minutes, but he did manage to solve it pretty quick. xD We were racing for a while! Though I'm still enjoying my birthday I'll think on the challenge if I have time.

Ganyu
07-23-2016, 03:44 PM
I searched the thread it was found in but... found nothing. What board would be related to Venonat and torches...?

EDIT: Well what did you know? I found another Venonat, and with a different codeword -- Walk!

So I did some anagramming with the left over letters and found with Three and Ten, I can make the words "Other Chat" out of the extra letters.

However the ones left over after that (EHIRR - Ten) (INR - Three) don't seem to indicate anything on either of the pages in the Board, so I'm not sure if this is a red haring or not.

EmeraldSky

It may be worth poking around in Other Chat

Chibi Altaria
07-24-2016, 09:34 PM
I got Other Chat somehow too, so maybe try looking there? xD

EmeraldSky
07-24-2016, 10:16 PM
I've poked in there three pages deep and didn't find anything.

AWA1997
07-24-2016, 10:43 PM
It's other chat page 13. The left over letters in the thirteen make other chat almost perfectly.

Sorry for the double post, but I found the map to the Orange Islands!

Well done guys! You may all evolve one pokemon :) Just post in the wild Pokemon claim thread when you've decided which one!

Thanks! Also, just a note, I'm not sure if this was on purpose or not, but there was a one-letter difference between what we were supposed to get and what we started with. we had to use, if I remember right, an r where we had a t. Or something like that.
