Custom Robo One in a Krillion

10 letters · 2 words · ~3s to type · 62 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Custom Robo: One in a Krillion, +100, 10 letters, about 3 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Mario, Pokemon, or The Legend of Zelda — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.

Skip Mario · Pokemon · The Legend of Zelda
