I like this a lot.

Take your machine out of the shop - air
stop by and get connected - fire
drive by and make a pickup - water
then head to the field - earth

And consider we have a fish for game hint 1...that could have something to do with water.

And also consider what we call things that are on the field: game elements. We could be using 4 game elements are are completely different.

So we have to build robotic fire fighters?

I so hope we have Captain Planet references in this new game...so we all can photoshop Dean to look like Captain Planet.

I predict speechlessness seconds, followed by 50% cheers of excitement, 45% groans and 5% "The Water Game is next year!".

Paramount can mean the top, or a high rise, like into the air...Meaning an element of Wind.
A Phoenix is a mythical fire bird...connecting to the element of Fire.
Next to the city of Minnetonka, is Lake Minnetonka and many other small bodies of water. (map of the area)...Meaning the element of Water.
And Evergreen is also a tree that grows in the earth...obviously the element of Earth.

See if that helps.

Edit: here is some more tidbits of info:

From Wikipedia - The Greek Classical Elements (Earth, Water, Air, Fire, and Aether) date from pre-Socratic times and persisted throughout the Middle Ages and into the Renaissance, deeply influencing European thought and culture. The concept of essentially the same five elements were similarly found in ancient India, China, and Japan, where they formed a basis of analysis in both Hinduism and Buddhism, particularly in an esoteric context: the four states-of-matter, plus a fifth element to describe that which was beyond the material world (non-matter). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_element

Elements eh? Maybe there are secitions in the game pertaining to each element? Go through fire? Over water? On land? Yet in the air?

Im not sure but I have a feeling that once the game is revealed...people will be laughing at the things they came up with

We have to go Through the Fire and the Flames to carry oooonn?
( I'm sorry I couldn't resist myself :[ )

On a relevant note, I think the elements concept might be a little too complex. Having robots deal with four different types of terrain might hinder variation. "Hey! This might work...."
"But what about when it has to go over _____ terrain?"
"Oh yeah..."

Oh, well in that case...you won't be able to connect this hint to the fish hint because there is a good chance the fish hint has to do with something completely different to this location hint.
