John's Knight:

Indeed it is. *tosses a Water Stone to you* Ah...Little buggy! *huggles the Spinarak*

Too bad it's gotta go to the AC D: *toddles off with the spider on his head*

[Lonely Wanderer]

*Flicks a Silver Shard on Skru-Chan's hand and waits for her riddle, saying nothing at all*

[Skrusti]

¬¬...can at least say 'please'. Unfortunatly, even if you don't, I have to give a riddle.

But still. A "please" would be appeciated. =/

Lonely Wanderer:
I wear a big grin, my face lit up
I look like I belong on a sippy cup!
I make you laugh, I make you smile,
A monkey is me; tail-hand style!

[Jon Jen]

Say Skrusti... >_> Um, I seem to still have a Green Shard left from the Christmas event, I believe, that I never turned in here... >_> The link's kind of gone, or at least I don't know where it is. Could I get a riddle for this shard?

I feel awful about this.

[Skrusti]

*Whispers* psst....check the Hall of Records next time ;D I went through the trouble of getting the Link */whisper*

Hmm...let's see...

Jon Jen:

I'm a timid little thing,
Normally found in the morning scene.
My classification is the five-star,
Watch me fly, I can go far!

[Skrusti]

*Plops a Level 5 Female Poochyena onto the Shard Shop Counter*

I believe this is the answer to my Green Shard Riddle. If not, I'm in serious t.r.o.u.b.l.e. >>;

You are correct *hands over Leaf Stone*

[Arc_Angel]

I have me another Green Shard.
Would you please give me a riddle for it Jeff *hugs* ^-^

I have me another Green Shard.
Would you please give me a riddle for it Jeff *hugs* ^-^

Gah, tired as hell, so this'll prolly suck D:!

I am a lazy little guy,
I move slower than clouds in the sky,
I love to fish with my tail tip,
but I forget my surroundings after a bit!

[Skrusti]

Happy Easter all!

Mascot the Ledyba, at your service! :O

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. If you do not answer correctly, the completed Shell Bell will be taken to the Casino where it will go up as a prize in the Daily Pick Lottery.

::Shell Bell::
4 Shoal Salts + 4 Shoal Shells -------> Shell Bell

Bring me your shards and other useless items! =D


::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
Ash x50 --------> Yellow Flute
Ash x50 --------> Red Flute
Ash x100 -------> White Flute
Ash x100 -------> Black Flute
Ash x600 -------> Pretty Chair
Ash x800 -------> Pretty Desk

::Active Quests::

Alilatias:
A tiny little orange bug, prey to big strong birds
I'll use the spikes on my rear end to show them some hurt,
I like to dream of the day I'll be able to fly high
As a dusty moth or even prettier yellow butterfly.

With leathery wings and fangs so sharp
I have no eyes and so live in the dark,
Relying upon my supersonic waves
To lead me through my blinded days.

A small fish, I love the sea
one of the few with electricity,
I communicate with flashing lights
My antennae help me in fights!

Arc Angel:
Red, white, and blue,
are the colours I show you
Although small, I'll take on the tall,
I don't like cold seasons at all

White little feet,
And a hard pink top,
With my SPIKE CANNON
your balloons I will pop!

Beco:
I'm over 26 feet long
My stony body is very strong,
I have a magnet in my brain
Zap me and I'll feel no pain.

Bladerboy:
Upon my head do antlers grow
I don't really live in the snow,
But every year at Christmas time
My name is often used in rhyme.

Commander Blizzard:
Wiggly and yellow, I don't seem of much use
But inside my shell, I make cool berry juice.

Cautious am I
Small and Purple
A curly tail
I am that simple

Dark Scizor:
Alone I'm a fairly timid fish
Yet savage when in swarms,
When I evolve you'd better swim
Or you'll meet my fateful JAWS!

Dream Breaker:
A small shiny ball, on my head it is kept
I'm small and I'm cute, with a spring in my step

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.

HakuBlue:
My nostrils are above my eyes but still I'm rather cute
I like to fill myself with water so I can forcefully shoot
Nice strong bursts of seawater up into the sky
Startling anyone who happens to be nearby.

John's Knight
Often mistaken for coral,
People build houses on me,
Cute, coloured Pink and White,
why can't they just let me be?

Jon Jen:
I move along at a slow pace
I can assure you I won't win any race.
Disco Inferno, my body's made of fire!
The rock-type through evolution I acquire.

I'm a timid little thing,
Normally found in the morning scene.
My classification is the five-star,
Watch me fly, I can go far!

Kassie:
From the sun I gain my power
Falling to earth in a meteor shower
Intense heat and bright light are my qualities
Reading emotions of others with relative ease.

Lee-San:
Clinging to cliffs, I await my prey,
Swooping down to ruin their day,
If my claws don't get them, my barbed tail will,
As it injects for a poisonous kill.

Lonely Wanderer:
A clear blue body I possess
If you step on me while I rest,
I'll sting you and make you cry
Before I shrivel up and die.

Metal Gardevoir:
I am soft and fluffy but don’t huggle me too tight
For if you squish a little hard you may just get a fright
My touch is sometimes shocking so my coat is often shorn
For making winter clothing to keep you nice and warm.

quilava plush:
My design is like a meerkat,
I stand on my tail to watch my surroundings.
A normal type is me, how 'bout that!
I've a target on my chest? Astounding.

Coloured Pink and white,
I live in the sea.
Some people who live out there
even build houses on me!

Sherlock Shuckle:
I love to fly above the sea
Scanning the water so I can see,
My prey who lurk beneath the waves
Upon whom I feast day by day.

Spectre:
My body is rock-solid, hard and made of black stone
I can move quite fast, despite the size I've grown,
With the magnet in my brain, my direction I can hone
If you want to catch me, look in the Volcano Zone.

Small and lithe, a body made of vines.
In fact, a cousin of mine might be a Pine.
Yellow, Brown, Green are the colours I be
When I grow up, I am a flycatcher, not a tree.

Teehee:
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.

I love to mirror actions
It's one thing I do best.
A tiny bird is my class,
my wings, they never rest.

Torkoal Stu:
My cute face is quite renowned for taking foes offguard
My steel jaws unnoticed due to my lovely, sweet facade,
Then I'll strike and open wide, chomping down quite hard
And that is now why I am known as the deceptive Pokémon.

Trick:
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.

::Inactive Members::

Aron Fan:
With big sharp fangs I am often found
Hiding in darkness as I rely on sound,
To lead me through my darkened days
Screeching out strong supersonic waves.

Cipher Admin Skarmory:
No one knows my real size
For in the ground I do hide,
When I evolve there are three
No longer lonesome lil' old me!

Gamer C:
When in danger, I attack with a poisonous sting
Give me a stone of moon, and I'll become a king.

In order to make my body
Iron ore I must eat
With my steel-hard tackle
There’s nothing I can’t beat.

Icechomp 3:
My large bulbous head sits right up on top
Of a skinny lithe body that just doesn't stop,
Moving and swaying in the soft summer breeze
As I blend in amongst all the tall leafy trees.

Manji:
My cotton wings are like clouds
And surround me like a shroud,
Anything dirty I will clean
Till it glows with a sparkling sheen.

MetalYoshi:
My milk is packed with nutrients
Which makes one strong and well
Therefore, it’s sought out and treasured
So you’ll be rich if my milk you can sell.

A big pearl on my head I hold
Bouncing until I evolve,
For if I stop my life's cut short
Call me swine, at you I'll snort!

A ball on my tail
A body of thick fat,
I am an aqua mouse
Not an ugly rat.

Shadow_Umbreon:
I've an ugly little puppy face
Though I'm actually quite charming,
Affectionate and playful as can be
But I find battling quite alarming.

Vagabond Aeon:
I'll bite you and chase you till you are dead,
But if you strike back I'll run away instead
So watch out for your ankles when I'm about,
With my nasty teeth and my hairy snout.

The above link shows that I have successfully obtained a Ledyba through the Cable Club. And I'm 99.9% Sure my silver shard riddle is Ledyba. So I shall hand in the bugger and possible obtain a... Moon Stone? :0

And hooray for first post =D

Ah, I'll tell you now that we Shop Owners LOVE direct links. Notice the little white number in the upper right hand corner of a post? Click it, and it views the single post. From now on grab that link. Makes it easier on us so we don't have to search through threads ^_^;

And, yes, Ledyba is indeed the answer to that quest. *Wipes it off the board and tosses you the Moon Stone*

Hmm...How I wish I could keep you little guy, but you're off to the Adoption Centre :O

[Joshua - Shadow Brigadier]

*strolls in nonchalantly*

Good day to you, kind sir. I happen to have here 4 of items of these here Shoal items, as acquired here:

Now, I believe there is some trial I am required to pass before obtaining my Bell. Couldst thou bestow upon me this trial?

Joshua

[Skrusti]

Thanks for reminding me Joshua.

You have 70 words to find in this Word Search. Naturally a Word Search is rather easy so we've made it just a tad harder by not giving you the word list. You have 24 hours in which to complete the puzzle (from the time of this post). You can either edit the image with the finished puzzle or just give me a word list. The word list will probably be easier though.

Puzzle is here

Ba! Good luck! =D

EDIT: ****. Some of the words are backwards, so uh...**** :/ Keep a careful eye out. *Grumbles about options that even when un-clicked stay there* I swear I unclicked the "Make some words backwords" option damnit.

Well, it's been well over 24 hours. The now completed Shell Bell goes to the Daily Pick. Sorry Joshua. :/

I worked SO hard on that! D:

[Amras.MG]

Shoal Salts and Shells 1, 2, and 3 (received in a trade) and Shoal Salt and Shell #4

I hope I did this right... Puzzle please.

[Jon Jen]

Seems I never remembered to hand in this Yellow Shard, so I'm doing so now. Riddle me~!

And know, I think that I'll hand in this Pineco as the answer to my Blue Shard Riddle.

[Skrusti]

MG, your puzzle is still being worked out, there was a small problem with it, but I think I have it fixed now, so another day or two and I will post the puzzle ^_^

And know, I think that I'll hand in this Pineco as the answer to my Blue Shard Riddle

Jon Jen: busy at the moment, will give you your riddle when I post MG's puzzle. But Pineco is indeed the answer to your Blue Shard Quest. *hands over the Water Stone and picks up the Pineco* Off to the AC with you little guy! =o

[Skrusti]

Myself: Level 5 Male Weedle I believe this is the answer to my Silver Shard quest Mrs. Tess?

MG: Here it is...Good luck.

Ah, there you are. You see, we have your Shell Bell completed, and we put it in this treasure chest for safe-keeping.

You notice the Treasure Chest has a number pad on the front of it where the lock should be.

Well, we kinda forgot the 3-number password to the chest. Fortunatly, these rather fine gents didn't!

You now notice a group of humanoid Pokemon nearby playing cards. A notice is hanging on a wall nearby; BEWARE: One of the Pokemon always tells the truth, one of them always lies, one of them alternates between the two, and one craves the taste of human flesh!

Spooky.

As you approach, one of the Pokemon looks up.

"Hello there."

"I suppose you want the combination to the chest, then? I'm getting really tired of people asking about that. Especially that crazy Jeff and his Ledyba. Nag nag nag, that's all they do about the chest."

"He's lying! They've only asked us once for the code."

"No, you're the one lying! They've asked quite a few times!"

"Graaaaaaaaagh...braaaaaaaaaains..."

You sigh. "Great, what's the code then?"

"Well, the first digit is 3."

"It is not! It's 8!"

"They're both lying. It's 9!"

"The second digit now...that's 4!"

"Graaaagh...fleeesh..."

"To be truthful, it's 1..."

"Oh no, it's definatly more than 1."

"Sorry! I meant to say 6. And the last digit, that's definatly 5!"

"Don't listen to him mate, it's 2."

"No, it was 5, I'm sure of it."

"Braaaaaaaaains?"

"That's all the hints you get from us!"

There. I require the three numbers, MG, needed to get into the chest, which can be deduced with logic from the text above. Remember. One always tells the truth, one always lies, one switches between truth and lies...and well Munchlax is a Zombie ;o

Jon Jen:

I move along at a slow pace
I can assure you I won't win any race.
Disco Inferno, my body's made of fire!
The rock-type through evolution I acquire.

That's my answer.

(Thanks for taking the time to make that very entertaining riddle, Skrusti.)

[Skrusti]

:0 you all saw NOTHING here...

[enchantress]

Myself: Level 5 Male Weedle I believe this is the answer to my Silver Shard quest Mrs. Tess?

Errrm... it's been a while but it looks right :P

*hands over Moon Stone and takes Weedle* Such a cutie *pats it*

[Lonely Wanderer]

Ahem, Jeff...I've acquired a Lv. 5 Male Aipom, and I believe that is the answer to my Silver Shard riddle, no?

[Skrusti]

Ahem, Jeff...I've acquired a Lv. 5 Male Aipom, and I believe that is the answer to my Silver Shard riddle, no?

No, it's not! >:O j00 phail!

Nah, just kidding. Course it is *hands over a Moon Stone and takes the Aipom, who then decides to wreak havoc on the shop* x.x Off to the AC with you little monkey thinger!

[Spectre]

Riddler, gimme a riddddlee!!

Pwease?? How bout a riddle for this Silver Shard?
