    Bravo on solving it mathematically. Its a magic square. Putting the numbers in is harder than actually finding the solution though.

     

    Yeah I am finding that out! Do you have any tips? I know it starts with the numbers in the same place each time, but I can't figure out an easy way to move them to where they need to be.

    The way I did it was by simply listing out all the possible sums of three numbers between 1-9 that added up to 15, and tried assigning them to a grid via trial and error. I also knew that the numbers 7, 8, and 9 couldn't be in the same column, row, or diagonal, so that limited positions.

     

    took me about 10-15 minutes lol  Actually solving the in game puzzle took me a while though

     

    I thought of doing something similar, making little cut out dominoes of each combination that equaled 15.

  3. I think others have already posted potential solutions to the math puzzle using computer programs, but for those who want a more organic approach I solved it without a computer.

     

     

      Your goal is to make a grid, well two, in which all the columns, rows, and diagonals add to 15. The position of a number in grid A must be different than the position of that number in grid B except for the center value.  I made the assumption that each of the two grids would use only the numbers 1-9 once and that the middle number would be the same (why else include the caveat?).

     


     

    I ascribed a variable for each of the nine positions in the grid, A-I, starting in the top left and going top to bottom. You know from the setup that each row (e.g. A+B+C) = 15 and that therefore all the values combined must equal 45. If you use these to make a few equations you can determine that A+I = G+C and that D-H = B-F (assuming you use absolute value). With a few grids meeting this requirement I determined that the value of the interior (i.e. B + D + F + H) and the corners (A + C + G + I) is determined by the center value, E. Only one center value creates a grid of 45 - when E = 5. Using the equations and this center value I created one grid which I then slightly modified to create the second.

    I haven't tried it yet in game, so I don't know what the reward is. But bravo on an amazingly difficult puzzle! This took me hours!  

  4. I am an amateur mushroom collector and I enjoy going out in the woods in the Spring and Fall to find different mushroom species (most of which are not edible, but still very pretty!). After seeing Shiinotic, I realized that it might be possible to have a total mushroom team, but I cannot find a good sixth-member. The obvious ones are:

     

    1) Vileplume

    2) Parasect

    3) Breloom

    4) Amoongus

    5) Shiinotic

    6) ???

     

    What would you recommend for a sixth member?

  5. Not so much asking for help, but just a general question. This is the first time I've completed an episode before another was released. What do you guys after finishing the story line and completing all the sidequests (which are always fun)? I've been trying to round out the dex, plus EV raising a team for the first time.

  6. Which shiny pokemon would you say look the coolest and which look the worst?

    Without a doubt I would have to say the radioactive Arbok is the best. The Aqua-Green Chikorita is probably a close second.

    While the green Seaking is the worst. Maybe because it reminds me of what your fish look like when you don't feed them in Insaniquarium.

    So a quick question.

    I've beaten Adrienn, and now I'm just messing around with some of the side quests. I managed to earn enough money to donate in regards to the Railnet, and I managed to get a Togepi Egg from trading a Probopass... however, when I returned to donate more, the construction manager carries on as if it was the start of the update rather than the end, preventing me from making any future donations. Do I have to wait in real time, am I only able to make one donation before I have to wait until the next update, or is this a glitch? 

     

     

    As far as I know, you have to wait until e17. Each of the donations leads to a similar, lengthy (but totally worth it) side quest with a rare pokemon at the end.
