Geocache Description:


"Nincada lives underground for many years in complete darkness. This Pokémon absorbs nutrients from the roots of trees. It stays motionless as it waits for evolution. It uses its sharp claws to carve the roots of trees and absorb moisture and nutrients. This Pokémon can't withstand bright sunlight so avoids it. It makes its nest at the roots of a mighty tree. Using its whiskerlike antennae, it probes its surroundings in the pitch-black darkness of soil." -R/S/E

This 3 part mini-series is designed to be done together and to add 3 different smileys to your total. You will be required to use information inside each cache to find the next one. An excellent 3 caches for your calendar, The Icon Challenge, or just for plain fun! As the saying goes, "Gotta Catch em All!"

This may seem like an easy find upon arriving at GZ. That is until you find all the spots the cache could be hiding in. Only one is the real deal with the log inside. However if you wish to find the other 2 caches in this series, you will have to find the decoy too. You will find the coordinates needed to find "#291: Ninjask" and "#292: Shedinja" on the decoy and cache container. Should add a fun challenge to a simple field puzzle to change up a stereotypical hide!

Congrats to scarhill & JustPlainPhil for their FTF!
