The '''Pokémon Trivia Quiz''' is a segment featured at the end of some {{pkmn|anime}} episodes in Japan. They replaced [[Professor Oak's lecture]] (except for some special lectures about the [[Hoenn League]] and coming movies) beginning with [[AG105]], and went until the beginning of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, when Professor Oak's lectures were once again featured in a regular basis.

The '''Pokémon Trivia Quiz''' is a segment featured at the end of some {{pkmn|anime}} episodes in Japan. They replaced [[Professor Oak's lecture]] (except for some special lectures about the [[Hoenn League]] and coming movies) beginning with [[AG105]], and went until the beginning of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, when Professor Oak's lectures were once again featured on a regular basis.
 
The segment consists of little games, one for each episode in which Pokémon Trivia Quiz features on, about Pokémon and the Pokémon anime. Some games are quite difficult to understand without basic Japanese and Japanese Pokémon names knowledge, as plays on words are quite common.
 
The hosts for the segment are varied. Some examples of hosts are {{an|Brock}} and [[Professor Oak]].
 
Background Pokémon includes {{p|Psyduck}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}}, the last two appearing using pom-pons to cheer.
 
==Types of Pokémon Trivia Quiz==

|Question
|
|Different kinds of questions  are made in Pokémon Trivia Quiz, like questions with puns about the Japanese names of Pokémon and questions about episode events or scenes.
|
|-
|See the clip and answer!
|映像を見て答えよう!<br>
''Eizō o mite kotaeyō!''
|A question about an episode scene is made and then a short clip of this scene starts playing, but it is very blurred and scrambled. There's a time limit and, as time goes by, the clip looks less blurred, giving hints to the answer to the question about the clip as the difficulty level goes down. Finally, the clip gets completely clear and unscrambled and the answer is given.

|Pokémon Shiritori
|ポケモンしりとり<br>
''Pokémon shiritori''
|It's a short game of {{wp|Shiritori}}, a Japanese word game in which the players are required to say a word which begins with the final {{wp|kana}} of the previous word. But this game has a little twist to it, as it has a time limit and the word chain (consisting of Japanese names of Pokémon) is already set, but some of the letters have been blanked out. As time goes by, more letters appear, decreasing the difficulty level and eventually revealing the answer.
|
|-
|Memorize! Pokémon
|おぼえて!ポケモン<br>
''Oboete! Pokémon''
|A short clip from an episode starts playing repeated times for close observation. Questions are then made about particular aspects of the clip. Lastly, the answer is given and shown.
|
|-
|Memorize! Pokémon DX
|おぼえて!ポケモンDX<br>
''Oboete! Pokémon DX''
|A set of 6 six Pokémon are repeately shown and the scene changes. When the 6 Pokémon are shown again, one of them isn't one of the original 6 Pokémon from the set shown before and the name of this Pokémon is the answer.
|
|-
|Search for the off partner!
|仲間はずれをさがせ!<br>
''Nakama hazure o sagase!''
|A screen with 5 holes is shown and, from each hole, a different Pokémon keeps popping up like a whack-a-mole game. Of these 5 Pokémon, 4 have some sort of similarity they share, while the other one lacks this trait. This game consists of finding who is the Pokémon that feels off compared with the others. After some time, a hint is given, telling the trait you should look for. Finally, the answer is given.
|
|-
|Pokémon Puzzle
|ポケモンパズル<br>
''Pokémon Puzzle''
|A jigsaw puzzle with all of the pieces blanked out appears on the screen. As time goes by random puzzle pieces appear and disappear, giving glimpses of the Pokémon. When the time is up, the Pokémon is then revealed.
||[[Image:Ag174_triviaquiz.png‎|thumb|[[AG174]]]]
|-
|Pokémon Arithmetic
|ポケモンさんすう<br>
''Pokémon Sansū''
|Some sort of arithmetic operations using Pokémon as variables is shown. Examples are then given to hint as to how should the operations be made in that case. The answer is then shown, explaining how to do the math.
