Last Letter Pokemon Game

Go To

(Unless I'm mistaken, "é" would be messed up in the thread title, but most people seem to not care about the accent marks…)
Right, so this game works as follows:

  • So the first poster (myself) picks a Pokémon.
  • The next poster names a different Pokémon that starts with the last letter of the previous one. (And so on.)
  • To avoid repetitiveness (or something), a Pokémon may only be used once per page. So if somebody's used "Eevee", it can't be used on the same page again.
    • "Nidoran♂" and "Nidoran♀" are treated as two entirely different Pokémon. (Clarification added 27 May 2023.)
    • TO DO: rule dealing with what happens if we run out of Pokémon for a given letter; at the time of this edit (11 March 2024) the letter X has a whopping 3 Pokémon.
    • At present, there are no Pokémon whose names end on a J or a Q.
  • For Pokémon whose last letter is an accent (like in Flabébé), the letter is treated as not having the accent.
  • For Pokémon whose last letter is, in fact, a number or symbol, the last letter is treated as being the letter before the symbol. So:
    • Nidoran♀, Nidoran♂, Porygon2: last letter is treated as "N"
      • This also applies to variants of the name, like "Nidoran-M" or "Nidoran (F)" or "Nidoran (fe)male". In this case, the next letter remains "N". (Clarification added 27 May 2023.)
    • Mime Jr.: last letter is treated as "R"
  • New Pokémon are permitted, as long as they have been officially revealed.
  • Glitch Pokémon and fan Pokémon are not permitted, sadly. (Added 08 October 2022.)

[EDIT]
(23 September 2023)
Thanks to Myskywarm, there's a list of Pokémon that's been used.
Said list's found here. (Assuming a Porygon didn't eat it.)
[/EDIT]


Example time:
Poster 1:

Poster 2:
