SHUT UP WOMANG POKEMON IS AWESOME ;_;
Yeah, go on, laugh at me.
Archaic Battle system, same rehashed pokemon, ugly sound, stupid grindan, etc etc.
I remember it like yesterday, I was in Korea and my friend gave me a copy of Pokemon Blue. It was in Japanese so I had no fucking idea what it said, but being a kid that I was I just had alot of fun with it.
My very very first starter was a Squirtle. I remember choosing a squirtle over a Charmander because all my damn friends had charmanders and I wanted to stick out a little more. And the fact that Wartortle looked so fucking badass.
I wish my Squirtle was this cool
After couple years, I heard news of this 'new' version of pokemon. I was shocked to hear there were over a 100 MORE POKEMANZ for me to catch! I was shocked and so excited for this new version. A crocodile water pokemon (crocodiles are still the coolest thing evar btw), a fucking badass flaming porcupine, and some retarded looking plant thing?! FUCK YEARH
I needed this game bad. I had to buy it
After a long and painful wait, I finally got my hands on a copy of Pokemon Gold for the Game Boy Color. And let me tell you the second I turned it on I was fucking pumped as fuck.
Like every immature 5th grader I proceeded to name my character Analdick and started my epic journey to the lands of Johto, and holy shit was I impressed. Day and Night system, genders, fucking berries, more skills, CRAZY POKEMANGZ, badass rivals and so so so much more! And to top it all off, the ending you fight the one player you never dreamed of meeting; Fighting 'yourself' from Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow.
It was insane. I have never felt so alive at that age. Everything I did felt like a huge accomplishment. My life felt so complete! I just knew that this version of Pokemon will always be the best in the series.
So anyways, the nostalgia factor for pokemon gold/silver is huge for me. As I downloaded bought Pokemon Heart Gold and started playing it, old memories from my past rushed through me and made me feel happy for a while now.
If you own a DS, go play this right now. If you loved Gold/Silver like me then this is your calling card back the Planet Nostalgia.

LOL.
Fuck yeah Pokemon.
Gen III wasn't that bad... I enjoyed Ruby/Sapphire for the contests and managed to complete the Pokedex for them.
If I had a DS I would totally play HG/SS

i hope the next game of pokemon allows you to go back to ALL places (kanto, johto, hoenn, sinnoh), that would be so fucking epic.
|
When I grow up, I'm going to catch them all! Mark my words!
|
gold was my fav pokemon game as well  good times lol
|
Weren't you disappointed w/ the second half of gold/silver though? It seemed like they just tacked the RBY gyms to the end.
|
yeah I remember buying my Pokemon Silver used off Amazon. I didn't realize it at the time, but the cartridge I was playing was a pirated copy I just ignored the fact that the cartridge had no label and thought the fact that my 100+ hour save file suddenly erased was normal (I was up to ~225 on my Pokedex, I even managed to catch all the legendary dogs myself).
I've played a Pokemon in every iteration. Nothing matches the epic scale of Gold/Silver

RBY was still by far the best. Anything after the original 151 Pokemon were lame.
On side note, Ash Ketchum sucks at catching them all.

but that was the coolest part!
At such a young age for me when I finished the first half of gold I was like "Goddamn that was epic"
and then they told me to take the 'train' to Kanto
My balls were on the ceiling man, for me it was the most epic thing ever

I just hate how I don't know any of the pokemon. I'm not going to figure out what pokemon are really good and what pokemon are really bad, I can't even remember the type charts anymore.
