1. This location lies by the sea, yet its name says it does not lie by the sea. | Inland City

3. This steel-type status move, when used in an appropriate place and after defeating eight trainers, will reward the player with a very rare berry. | Iron Defense
4. You are battling Nessa as part of the Gym Challenge. Nessa sends out her Drednaw and Rillaboom is your currently active Pokémon. Seeing that grass-type moves are 4× effective, you command the Rillaboom to use Grass Knot. What is the message appearing after "Rillaboom used Grass Knot!"? | The move was blocked by the power of Dynamax!
5. Barack Obama's election campaign's motto was this opening theme's title. | Yes I Can!
6. Considering its chemical formula, this compound stiffer than steel is used in making toilets. | tungsten carbide [WC]

8. Printed verbatim on a Monopoly board, this organisation uses Magnemite as part of its security system. | electric company
9. May entered this location in the anime, thereby violating its name. | Forbidden Forest
10. Besides patrolling the streets of Pyrite Town, this character functions as Prime Minister of Galar. | Officer Johnson
11. According to unconfirmed sources, the present scavenger hunt was most likely created in this location, which contains a Pokémon racetrack. | Odyssey Village
12. Nothing happens upon giving the right version of this item to a granddaughter. (ignore diacritics) | Left Poke Ball
13. Take the first letters of the previous 12 answers. Who said them? | Mr. T [I PITY THE FOOL]
14. The fiscal year of this Southeast Asian country begins on April Fools' Day. | Singapore

32) Greetings, Scavenger! We have just received an anonymous tip that another suspicious transaction is happening online. It seems like it's a WordPress website this time around, and according to our benefactor, the name is the location where Ash finds an Amulet Coin in the anime. Once you find that location, head over to "[location].wordpress.com" without brackets or quotes. One more thing, it might be helpful to look for anything that seems out of place, like something being misattributed. Try clicking on those things. Good luck! [Time Gears]
Congratulations to all finishers! Thank you to Pisxel, fearfire, PokeLivelyBattler, crespucular goomy, imjustgray, jude909, pv2023, slammyjj, Mayhewy, MisterFrostee, Zman10010, smii, Christmas, 111ace111, haario, and pokemonvortex for submitting puzzles that featured in this hunt. Shoutouts to all the staff that helped run this event as well. We hope you mhaved fun!
2) Looks like the difficulty was underestimated. A lot of people got stuck here. Don't forget to read all of /nms and ask for hints if you need one!
4) If you're a bit of a Scavs dinosaur you'll remember this one. It's from the old Scavengers hunt-making/solving articles in The Player. I think it was written by Spydreigon or Snaquaza.
9) Forgot about Revelation Dance D:
11) Still banned.
22) Forgot about Cherrim-Sunshine D:
32) The solution is as follows: The location in question is Capacia Island. If you head over to capaciaisland.wordpress.com, you'll see a picture of Cilan attributed as Brock. Click on it and scroll down to read a comment. The comment will direct you to open the image in a new tab then edit the url (https://capaciaisland.files.wordpress.com/2020/03/clemontic_gear.png). In the image, the words Dusk and Noire are missing. Dusknoir wants to the prevent the Time Gears from being stolen in PMD2.

The ladder twist chosen by staff for the month of April is: Coming very soon!

Don't get fooled on the April Ladder!

Big congratulations to a trio of new promotions the previous month: MikeTheEntei as our newest room voice, and computerwizard8800 and Tapler (shhhh don't tell him) as our newest room drivers!
 
reserving fish 05/04/'20
21:00 GMT
won't follow twist for obv reasons (hope that's okay!)
Tapler host! LittEleven second qc'er

The official scavenger hunt was ended by Meicoo.
1st place: celesteeal!!! [04:22].
2nd place: 3.14dgeot-Mega [06:58].
3rd place: bulbasaur! buddy! [08:54].
4th place: TurtalKatThing [08:59].
5th place: 111ace111 [12:59].
Consolation Prize: Grimm Nightmare [17:20], Computerwizard8800 [18:22], killerASCII [18:51], Discordual [37:17], AFKndrew [44:32]

Solution:
1) This is the only contact recoil move that won't increase the recoil damage on a crit. [Struggle]
2) Excluding Z-, Max, and Signature moves, these are the only moves of their types that are physical but not contact moves. (alpha) [fusion bolt Psycho cut sacred fire sky attack]
3) In the anime/a movie, two Pokemon of the same species are under ownership of a father and son that work together in a patrol of sorts. As the son's Pokemon is weak, it needs further training from a Pokemon his father owns that shares a type with it, but that it's also weak to (stab-wise). Name the Pokemon father and son share, then the father's second Pokemon. [Ledian Pidgeotto]

Hosted a regular foosh on Wednesday, April 8th, at 3pm PST.

Finishers:
1st place: Cheese555 [12:39]
2nd place: 111ace111 [16:28]
3rd place: celesteeal!!! [18:56]
4th place: aQrator [23:43]
5th place: Darth [28:00]
6th place: MikeTheEntei [01:18:47]

Solution:
1) Each of these abilities function identically to at least one other ability, except that they are not bypassed by moves or abilities that typically ignore abilities. (Alphabetical Order) [Full Metal Body, Prism Armor, Shadow Shield]

2) If forms are considered to be separate Pokemon from their base form, these Pokemon that were introduced to Sword and Shield with the release of Pokemon Home have a unique ability within the Galarian Pokedex. (Alphabetical Order, format as PS does) [Lunala, Meltan, Persian-Alola, Raichu-Alola, Solgaleo]

3) There is one episode of the Pokemon anime that contains all of the Pokemon used to answer question 2 that do not have an ability that was used to answer question 1. This Pokemon makes its anime debut in that episode. [Kangaskhan-Mega]

QCed by Computerwizard8800 and BulbasaurBuddy

hosting my official ig in 3 hours. (8:45pm est).
thanks andrew+pants for qcing

The official scavenger hunt was ended automatically.
1st place: celesteeal! [05:06].
2nd place: Meicoo [06:46] (completed without a single wrong answer!)
3rd place: irokei [07:28].
4th place: Computerwizard8800 [11:57].
5th place: Cheese555 [15:49].
Consolation Prize: ProfSapling [16:26](completed without a single wrong answer!), 111ace111 [20:07], 3.14dgeot-Mega [23:50](completed without a single wrong answer!), TurtalKatThing [24:43], MikeTheEntei [26:07], Rory Mercury [26:20], Almm41 [28:24](completed without a single wrong answer!), BeastBoy1971 [34:37], AliasHallow [53:21]

Solution:
1) According to this book in the Malie Library, Necrozma and Lunala first appeared by means of an Ultra Wormhole. [the light of alola]
2) Say you've received a Mystery Gift and set the time backwards in Pokemon Gold or Silver. In that case, this will be your opponent at the location where you would otherwise fight the fully-evolved Johto starters (answer with trainer class + name as it appears in the battle). [pkmn trainer thomas]
3) These Normal-type Pokemon currently have a unique Ability that was, at some point, signature to a non-related Pokemon line in a previous generation (alpha.order). [drampa oranguru]

The April ladder twist is Perfect Score: If you finish an official without making any incorrect guesses or using /leavehunt, you will receive bonus points based on your placing! These bonus points will follow a format of 10-8-5-5-5-5, with all finishers past 6th able to earn 2 bonus points. Note that in the case of an official question's answer being edited, this twist will be nullified for that official. (This twist does not apply to mini officials.)
(See March Ladder Results here.)
