For those of you who are still (for whatever reason) confused as to how this game works:
I will pick a Pokémon (from any generation). You, collectively (that means any visitor to the thread) may ask up to 20 "yes-or-no" questions about the Pokémon that I've picked, in order to eventually try to guess which Pokémon it is. If you do not guess the correct Pokémon within 20 questions, you lose and I own your souls. Obviously. If you do guess the correct Pokémon, whomever guesses it becomes the new question-master-person-thingy. 
For clarity: You don't have to immediately guess "Is the Pokémon [insert name here].?" Think back to the days of Guess Who, and be creative. For example: "Is your Pokémon from the first generation?" 
Or: "Is your Pokémon [insert type here]?"

I've thought of my Pokémon. Guess away.

P.S.: You'll have to trust me to not change my Pokémon halfway through the answers like a douchebag. I wouldn't do that.

Is it gen 5? This is a pretty cool idea, but why only 20?

No, it is not 5th Gen. 1 question used.

"20 Questions" is a popular game, so I've adapted it for Pokémon. 20 is arbitrary, but it's the general standard.

Also, as a side note: This game gets really boring if you use binary search, so please no "is it in the first half of the Pokédex?"

Is it a dual-type Pokemon?

Honestly, there is no need for "numerical" questions, the only people who would ask those questions know NOTHING about pokemon and are simply using Bulbapedia for the answer, and are being EXTREMELY lazy about it as well...

Yes, it is dual-type. 2/20 used.

And asking a numerical question does not necessarily mean they know nothing about Pokémon. In fact, it probably means they know a bit about logic and/or computer science, and thus know that a binary search is the fastest way to get the answer. But yes, it's a lame way of guessing.

BenTover : Is it gen 4? OK, I get it now. At the start I thought it was like "20 Pokemon questions then the thread will be closed!" Or something, lol.
