The first one, "Crebase", turned out to be a Pokemon, but that's its Japanese name (クレベース); it's Avalugg in English, which sounds a lot less like actual technologies like Couchbase or Graphbase.

#13I have a living pokedex in Y (718 in PC, one of each). I thought I knew my pokemon. This one is called Avalugg, not Crebase. https://www.dropbox.com/s/1puw4bgdtw3hyye/Screenshot%202014-... Using the americanized Japanese names is not right. Either use the native Japanese names in the correct alphabet, or use the English translated names.
Same here (although my living dex has since been deposited in Bank). I was super psyched to take this quiz and then was immediately disappointed by the first question. Too bad, coulda been funny.

#14Company names, product names, code names...they are neither more nor less strange or meaningless in #bigdata than anywhere else.

#15I got 2 wrong. Disclaimer: I created the (currently) most popular browser-based Pokemon fan game. So it's pretty sad.
If it's Showdown (which, given your description, it must be) then I love you. /dex was incredibly helpful when wending my way through Battle Maison.

My experience with MongoDB (granted, this was five years ago) was with it losing half my dataset for no particular reason, so I can certainly relate with the quote (and found it very funny).

Mongo got a bad rap a few years ago about taking somewhat liberal stance about the integrity of the data stored inside and during sharding/replication.
There were personal accounts about lots of lost/corrupted data.

#20I was kind of hoping to see Flareon[1,2] included, even if it is not #bigdata per se.
