a(2) = 43 since 43 has two distinct digits in bases 2 <= b <= 5, 7 <= b <= 41 and b = 43, and one distinct digit in bases b = 6, b = 42 and b >= 44. All greater numbers have at least 3 distinct digits in some base b >= 2.

Smallest number k such that k^j is (at least conjecturally) pandigital in base n for every j > 0.

a(3) = 15 because 15 = 120_3, 15^2 = 22100_3, 15^3 = 11122000_3, 15^4 = 2120110000_3, and (apparently) 15^j for all j > 0 are all pandigital in base 3 (15^j is pandigital in base 3 for every positive j up through at least 2*10^6), and no number smaller than 15 has this property. (E.g., A049363(3) = 11 = 102_3 is pandigital in base 3, but 11^2 = 11111_3 is not.)
a(5) = 694 because not only is 694 = 10234_5 pandigital in base 5 (it happens to be the smallest such number A049363(5)), but so are 694^2 = 110403021_5, 694^3 = 1141032133014_5, 694^4 = 12300040122031441_5, and (apparently) 694^j for every j > 0, and no number smaller than 694 has this property.
