Poor music remixes and too much tutorials. I also heard the extra content was lackluster.

Your shorts suck as much as your Pokemon, youngster

No Guard Fissure Machamp is basically the prize here I believe.
Who knows how abilities will work with these imported pokemon though.

Not on Miiverse with the names I'm going to be giving these Pokemon you can't
Are you implying BubbleBeam Persian isn't the most useful Pokemon?

It won't nearly be as hilarious as a 100% accurate Fissure.
I'm also wondering that. Could be a very useful opportunity to get some rare, normally unobtainable Pokemon/move combinations.

I am excited to eventually (and slowly) transfer over a bunch of pokemon with pay day. I've always inexplicably liked pay day, so I usually have a meowth in my pc at the ready to use it.
Is Mew grindable as long as you don't fight that one trainer?
Could be a pretty useful thing to have a good guide on. I'm sure over time people will at least get the most important combinations down for people to get.
I'm no expert. I know you can get more later in the game. Something to do with Dittos. But I just used the Youngster outside Cerulean City, and the Swimmer in Misty's Gym to get two very easily, wihin five minutes of each other, before I even got my second badge.
I'm done with glitches now. I just wanted Mew(s).
Ivysaur, the line doesn't learn that many attacking moves so cut makes it somewhat decent.
Yep all you need is to face a Pokémon that has a special stat of 21, which is Mew's index number.

That is actually a super complicated question, and there's not really a clear or easy answer. There are ten states that have explicit laws concerning the taxation of digital goods. The Internet Tax Freedom Act prohibits the taxation of any internet based goods or services "related to a homepage, email, instant messaging, video clips, and personal storage capacity." This is a pretty difficult definition to deal with due to the fact that it has come about due to multiple amendments to a law passed in the mid 90's, before digital goods were really an issue. Any service that falls into the aforementioned categories should be exempt from taxation. Alternatively, you could argue that because the Dormant Commerce Clause of the Constitution forbids the taxation of goods purchased by mail unless the vendor has a substantial nexus with the state levying the tax. Because there is no clear definition of what would be considered a nexus for digital goods, it is difficult to determine in what way these goods should be taxed. Using this logic, however, digital goods purchased through the Nintendo eShop should only be taxed for residents of Washington state. It's all kind of a mess though.
I won't be. I'll be going through Yellow with Red's team from the Johto games. I may do one while going through Red or Blue.

Wait, you can get Mew in these? How?
The tutorials aren't that bad, at least nothing compared to the later DS games.

I just hate the graphical style and music for the remakes. It just seems so bland compared to the original.
I would of preferred something more like the SS and HG Remakes

Check out "Method #2" here:
I used both the Route 25 Youngster AND the Swimmer in Misty's Gym and got two Mews very quickly.
You can use the Jr Trainer to the left of Nugget Bridge more than once, which makes the process very quick and easy.
Remake. I love Vaporeon so there's no way I could resist evolving Eevee.
What a sad, Mew-less existence.
I don't blame you. I just got carried away with the fact that obtaining Mew was so frickin easy.
I'd say pretty likely since G/S/C are now the only games where you can't get your Pokemon into gen 7.
Just beat Misty! Current team is as follows:
Pikachu lvl 20
Charmeleon lvl 16
Mankey lvl 19
Ivysaur lvl 19
Pretty much every other time I'd play a Gen 1 game, I'd try and catch as many Pokémon then train all of them equally...Well, screw that noise. Still catching everything I find, gotta catch 'em all, but I'll only party the ones I know I'll be using long term. So far the approach has worked like a charm.
I really wish Pikachu's defense wasn't so pitiful. Any advice here? I did beat Misty's Starmie using Pikachu exclusively (granted, gave about three potions to the little guy), so that gave Pika a nice self-steem (and EXP!) boost.

Are Mew codes that rare? I still got one that Gamestop gave me a few weeks ago as they guy just pulled them out and asked if I had X or Y. I don't even really play anymore. I haven't even scratched it off yet.

Is there an item that allows the original soundtrack like HGSS?
I'm on the same boat, found out literally an hour after I did this
Yea I just got through and then read ppl talking about it here.

Well Pikachu, it's been swell since we met in Viridian Forest, but we're at Celadon now, and there's a little lady waiting for me at the top of that building who will replace you.
I'm sorry it had to come to this, but she's just so much faster than you. She also gets that Thunderbolt TM I know you wanted. And the Thunderstone you wanted. Uhhh... but you'll be first in the line to go the moon, so look forward to that.
Now enter the queen, Sparkster the Jolteon. Always wanted to use Jolteon, but never did in Blue the first go around, and I guess I just forgot in FR, so here I am. And unlike Pikachu, who took like 4 turns to kill anything, her and her thunderbolt OHKO or 2HKO basically anything that doesn't resist her. Neat.
Fearow's next. As soon as I meet the two headed freak of nature, Fearow's time on the team is done. He served me well, but I can't argue with Doduo getting Drill Peck a few levels before Fearow. And having better stats.
From there, the team is solid until Dugtrio is retired for Articuno much later on.
I'm packing Persian, Nidoking, Fearow, Charmeleon, Jolteon, Dugtrio. All in the mid 20s, early 30s, just got to Celadon. The game is starting to get a lot easier now that Persian has some water coverage, and I have a decent special attacker with Jolteon.
Also Bubblebeam Persian wrecks Rock Tunnel. And yet I still just barely made it out, with, yet again, a very low HP Nidoking. This Nidoking has been clutch for me making it out of caves lol.

If you've cleared out the trainers to the north of the City, past the Nugget Bridge, and finished Misty's Gym, then you're out of luck without reverting to a previous save.
I believe there are opportunities later in the game though.

Honestly, I'm only really concerned with getting Mew. With no confirmation that they'll run a Gen I Mew event, I just want to get one to make sure I can complete the Pokedex. Especially because this is before they started giving out the certificate even if you don't have all the Mythical Pokemon.
Exactly. Me too.

Now I kind of want to grind out an army of Mews so once I can transfer to PokeBank, I'll Wonder Trade the hell out of them.
Ah I see, I was curious to see how you would have handled his original team had you chosen it but you seem to find a way around that.
Actually I wonder how many people actually used Eevee on their team and kept him unevolved, surely I can't be the only one who does this.
I wouldn't be surprised if they have plan to give gen 2 the virtual console treatment, which why I am holding off till they release them.
I once used Mew on my Red team but he made the game a bit too easy and he took some of the spotlight away from the team so I had to drop him.
