Figuring out the Classic Pokedle puzzle can be a bit tricky at first, but it is made easier once players narrow down their answers to the Generation I Pokemon that Pokedle currently uses. We know the answer involves a small green Bug-type species that frequents forests and has access to the ability Shield Dust. When it comes to creatures from Kanto, Caterpie is the only guess that fits the bill.

For the TCG art puzzle, players will immediately notice a yellow and brown body, a pair of horn-like appendages on the head, and what appears to be small metallic objects in the creature's hands. If fans relate back to Generation I monsters, then it can be pretty easy to make out the figure of the Psychic-type Pokemon Alakazam, known for the bending spoons it holds in each hand.

Pokedle's Pokedex puzzle can be a difficult one, as many species are known for consuming small rocks on occasion. However, fans of Pokemon Ruby may recognize the Pokedex entry and determine the answer. Otherwise, one might ask oneself: What is a large collection of small rocks called? If they deduce that gravel is the answer, then the Rock-type Graveler is the reasonable solution.

That leaves the silhouette puzzle, which shows a blade-like appendage. When it comes to the Generation I species with curved blades as a major feature of its design, it's hard not to immediately think of the mantis-like Bug/Flying-type monster Scyther due to the crescent-bladed arms it brandishes in battle.
