Wait... GSC didn't have berries? What then, were those bushes I picked fruit off of when I played a bit of a Japanese cart that one time? I wondered what they were supposed to do, but I couldn't figure out how to use them (mainly because I could only use items and moves by trial and error)Dogenzaka said:Diving underwater to find Relicanths was pure bliss. Surely you jest!
The towns were so cool too. A town in a forest canopy? A city at the base of a fiery volcano covered in ash? A village connected by floating logs? A walled city in the middle of the ocean? So awesome D:
They introduced double-battles, natures, contests, berries, enemy organizations with actual purpose, lots of neat-o stuff. But suit yourself

There were berries in GSC. Not nearly as many and probably without as much utility, but they were there.viciouskillersquirrel said:
Mt. Coronet was great, seeing gym leaders out and about and sort of living normal NPC lives was nice, Cynthia had the greatest champion theme ever, the starters were the best that the series had ever seen, special/physical split was long overdue, and you are an all around terrible person.iirate said:
Apricorns, eh? Interesting.Dogenzaka said:
I didn't like contests because the rules seemed overly complicated and counter-intuitive and there was no real battle benefit involved in getting ribbons. But yeah, to each his own.Dogenzaka said:Haha I must be weird. I loved the contests. Such a fun time-waster. Double battles might not have been perfectly utilized, but they were there and they were introduced

I try to ignore those sorts of comments. You will never win an argument against their selective memory.Dogenzaka said:Gen 1 had Pokemon like Jigglypuff, Jynx, Muk, Oddish, and Ditto, and you're complaining about the Gen that brought us beautiful Pokemon like Gardevoir, Absol, Blaziken, Swampert, Milotic, Salamence, Metagross, Zangoose, Kyogre and Groudon?
Dogenzaka said:I think too many people put the game on an untouchable pedestal, really. I don't think they were the best. I think it is the best sequel in the franchise, because it brought about so many incredible new features that bested the original. But as far as the best overall game in the franchise, before HG/SS, I would have said it's Platinum.
Nobody would hate HM's if you could delete them whenever you wanted.

How do you have 301 hours? The game came out sunday.Metroid Killer said:Yeah, I think what we can all learn from this game is that Rattata is NOT a suitable discussion topic, nowhere relevant enough to call your friends about it!!
Finally got my Kanto team together (actually I still need to evolve Duskclubs into Dusknoir), after being distracted by Pokeathlon and filling out pokedex entries and getting those damn 30.000 watts in order to get a Snorunt, I can finally continue into Kanto grounds with my new team!
All level 45
And caught a shiny Golbat last night which now has evolved into the pink vampire Crobat! So here is my group of shinies
Badges: 8, Beat Jotho League.
Pokedex: 282
Play Time: 301 hours!

Not that I know off. I actually got scared the very first time the security guard challenged me. :lolSixfortyfive said:
If you have a pokemon with flame body/magma armor in your party egg hatch times are halved, I believe.Ookami-kun said:
Unforotunately not, and eevees are the worst!Ookami-kun said:
Why no just get a Magby from the PokeWalker? You can get one in the Rugged Road course.Eteric Rice said:
I think you can start using it when you can deposit a Pokemon in a box, since that is how you transfer it to the PokeWalker. You transfer from the games title screen menu as well.fisheyes said:
You can always get them later, if you can find them that is. After certain progressions in the game they'll call you for rematches which is free decent exp points!OMG Aero said:
Uninspired? I think I'd have to go with Feebas/Milotic just because it's such a blatant clone of Magikarp/Gyarados (stupid weak fish -> badass water snake). I still like Milotic though.FootNinja said:So who do you guys think is the most uninspired design in all of pokemon?
I could never see myself putting this guyin my team.
His name is also pretty stupid.
Well if its anything like the original Gold/Silver then there isn't anything. In the original games everything was shrunk in order to fit in two regions so all the routes were rather short and broken up. So unless they extended the routes in the remakes, I don't believe there would be any comparable routes in Johto.Wiseblade said:
