The October 17, 2026 puzzle ran from Floette at 20 cm to metropolitan France at 1,000 km — 6 orders of magnitude apart, drawing on pokémon, technology, geography. The pair furthest apart was round 5: metropolitan France is about 1.3× smaller than Texas.
Answer: Floette — 20 cm. Floette measures 20 cm (height), which is almost exactly the same size as the reference, Dedenne at 20 cm.
Floette stands 20 cm tall and weighs 900 g — almost exactly the height of a paperback book (20 cm).
Common miss: players tend to inflate Floette when it sits beside Dedenne — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.

Remoraid stands 60 cm tall and weighs 12 kg — almost exactly the height of a violin (59 cm).
