QUESTION 20 - How many archetypes are there for creatures in the Space Stage in Spore?

Seeing as I've done 20 questions and only now done a bonus, I'll break even as it was every 10 questions. So I'll allocate another bonus point if anyone can also name all of them.

[Giant Chicken]

10!

[Master]

Ithasmore pushes up to 2nd place! Though the bonus question remains unanswered...

QUESTION 21 - What does Duke Nukem and Big the Cat have in common?

Bonus Question: Name all the creature archetypes in the Space Stage of Spore

[Rsandee]

A voice actor?

[Giant Chicken]

They were created by the same person?

[EdgyRabbid]

They were created by the same person?

Cat in a hat was created by Dr Susse, I don’t think they’d share creator lol.

But my answer is probably they have a game developed by the same studio

[Giant Chicken]

You're saying THIS...

NOT the Cat in the Hat

[EdgyRabbid]

Big the cat looks more like a rabbit to me tbh

[Greengoop]

So why’d you consider it to be referring to the cat in the hat?

[Master]

Ok I think I've let this one go on long enough.
Rsandee is correct! Big the Cat used to be voiced by the same VA as Duke Nukem, Jon St John!

QUESTION 22 - What is a Nuzlocke Run?

Bonus Question: Name all the creature archetypes in the Space Stage of Spore

[EdgyRabbid]

It’s a run where if you die, then you lose the game. In pokemon, you have to name all the pokemon, only catch the first pokemon you find on a route and if the pokemon faints it dies.

[Giant Chicken]

It comes from the names of two Pokemon YouTubers, where one had caught a Farfetch'd, and declared that if it died, his run would end. The rules can vary, but generally the idea is that you can only catch the first Pokemon you encounter, must name your pokemon, and if it faints, you cannot use it again. There's other variants, such as a soullink, where your pokemon's lives are linked to another players pokemon.

[Greengoop]

I thought the origin was from a webcomic, and it was a Nuzleaf?

[Giant Chicken]

I remember my friend telling me about it, so I'm probably wrong. Still worth saying it I guess :P

[The Jonster]

Personally I would never do a Pokemon Nuzlocke run. Not because I couldn’t do it but because I like my Pokemon.

[EdgyRabbid]

Only reason I knew this is because I watched so much Jaiden animations as a preteen..:

I’ve done various before, but they weren’t hardcore. (I.e. I still grinded my Pokémon and ignored level limits.)
