Exactly. If you really want to play Pokemon 'properly', download Pokemon Online and try win 3 matches in a row.

 

Then come back to me after you realise you're [bleep]ing shit at a game you thought was for kids.

Bro I can do the Elite Four 10 times in a row without needing to heal or restock on revives and max potions using a squirtle and a diglett.

Kidson.

You obviously have no [bleep]ing clue what you are taking about. I rarely post on blogs, but I just had point out how wrong you are.

The first generation games blow. They are awful, glitchy games that have very poor mechanics and a relatively boring story.

Lol you get automatically healed when you defeat the Elite Four.

Red, Blue & Yellow > all.

 

That's a fact.

Red, Blue & Yellow > all.

 

That's a fact.

 

I argue that FR and LG are better than RBY. Any self-respecting Pokemon player who isn't a nostalgiafag would agree.

[bleep] it.

I... I love those glitchy, hilariously unbalanced games. I just finished Nuzlocking Yellow and the unfair bits made it that much more interesting. :cry:

Put 200 hours into your game then accidentally use the move known as "super glitch" and kiss those 200 hours goodbye.

 

I'm not saying that glitching isn't fun (because it is), but those games were so broken with glitches that it isn't even funny.

Lol, Ghost type was supposed to be super effective against Psychic-types, but instead, Ghost-type attacks were made to not affect Psychic-types at all.

And then your Haunter (or Gengar, if you were lucky enough to have friends with the games (omfg) or if you had both games + two systems and a link cable (THAT THING WAS THE SHIT BTW)) would get owned, because it's part Poison-type.

Wasn't Ice x2 effective vs Fire in Gen I, or some shit like that?

 

This thread has distracted me from assignment work, so I can listen to a marathon of Pokemon OST on YouTube. Thanks guys. <3

I used to have both a GBA and a GBA SP, and a trading cable, so I'd buy both the games (i.e FR and LG), and get all three starter pokemon on one save file. Man that was fun.

Managed to complete the FR original pokedex and half of the National one before I gave up on it.

 

Gengar was such a [bleep]ing bad ass

It's kind of sad now that you can trade hacked Lv100 Mewtwos for L1 Pidgeys over the Nintendo WFC. Kids don't know what they're missing. :(

 

I remember buying an unofficial guide for Red/Blue that said you shouldn't ever attempt to catch all 150 Pokemon because it might take you a lifetime to complete. Lol... even Mish wouldn't take a lifetime, not then and definitely not now.

Wasn't Ice x2 effective vs Fire in Gen I, or some shit like that?

Both neutral, I think.

Pokemon are easy ;)

So that's what kids are calling it these days.

ice was weak to fire iirc

What I'm basically getting at is there is the 'normal' way of playing pokemon which is buying the game and completing it by defeating the elite 4. Then there is the whole other side of it which is competitive pokemon which is about 90% of what pokemon is meant to be.

 

It's like you're all playing f2p while competitive pokemon is the p2p side. And you're all bragging about how its so much better when it's not even why people play pokemon.

So sorry for not denoting my sarcasm. Please forgive me oh great one.

One does not simply ask for forgiveness from the native colonies.

For some aspect I disagree... One of them is Speedrunning. Try and do a 2h-2.5h speedrun on FR/LG?

Calling that as BS.
