Filthy Haiku posted:It's simply speculation, but red and blue had catastrophic, game breaking glitches that could loving brick your game and i can't see them releasing it in that state. The original games were a marvel of pushing the limits of the game boy. It's also fairly safe to assume that they won't have the standard save state features from virtual console. Yes, these game-breaking glitches that literal legions of 10-year-olds discovered en masse and had their games bricked, resulting in a sea of tears. Which never happened, because most of those "game-breaking glitches" you'd never encounter playing the game normally. The games function fine as a game. Quirky bugs aside. Yes, Toxic stacked with Leech Seed amid a myriad of other problems, but none of those are literally going to break your game. Even the famous MissingNo glitch didn't break your game unless you were dumb enough to actually catch the thing, and even if you did, releasing it usually fixed the problem.

mabels big day posted:Gen 1 hyper beam and counter mechanics should be features, not bugs. In future Pokemon installments, I mean. My dream mega evolution is a mega Tauros with an ability that reverts the game to Gen 1 mechanics whenever it's out. Auto-embargo, Hyper Beam is physical and doesn't have to recharge on kill, earthquake hits levitators, his critical rate becomes like 25% or whatever stupid poo poo it was, etc.

If you think Nintendo is just going to slap rby into an emulator and sell them for twice as much as any other GB game without severely tidying up the code, when they're teasing new features, after announcing it in a direct I don't know what to tell you. I had snot faced 11 year old friends who completely wrecked their carts, so I don't know what you're talking about. The more harmful glitches were still easily encounterable. They were acceptable at release back in the day, but to rerelease as a big anniversary event? They're going to fix poo poo. Filthy Haiku fucked around with this message at 20:29 on Nov 19, 2015 |

You know what we should be talking about? We should be talking about what Pokémon to use to take best advantage of all those broken mechanics. Bulbasaur might be the best starter to use, since he learns Leech Seed and you can teach him Toxic. Or use one of the other inferior grass/poison types. Tauros with Hyper beam. Maybe a Gyarados too because Gyarados rules and you can buy Hyper Beam TMs (I think?) Dragonite with Thunder Wave and Wrap. Dratini starts with these moves. It just ain't fair! He also learns Hyper Beam. Something with Amnesia to make itself an unkillable god of killing with no effort. Something fast with a frequent crit move, but not Focus Energy, of course. Maybe a Jolteon and just watch it crit forever. Toss in something with Blizzard too. And an Alakazam, because Alakazam was the biggest dick and psychic was the best type back then.

At best they're gonna fix the stuff that might cause problems for the actual 3DS or stuff that would cause the VC game to flat out stop functioning. But fixing every last bug in there? No way, that would be considered a waste of resources on their part. Some minor bugs slip through in games because people really couldn't be bothered to fix them unless the bug is severe.

Weren't some of the bugs fixed in Yellow? Maybe they will just base some of the code on Yellow and call it a day.

Leech seed + toxic is not as broken as you'd think, as its easy to switch out of and with so many powerful pokemon its better to just hit hard. Dragonite works best with Agility and Wrap instead of thunder wave, as it nullifies the speed loss from paralysis. Gyarados isn't that great because he doesn't get STAB on Hyper Beam, but Tauros is probably the strongest gen 1 Pokemon by itself. Persian and Jolteon are the best abusers of crits, especially Persian, as Slash will almost always crit. If you want to abuse Amnesia, look no further than Slowbro.

I think only the Jugglers did with any consistency. So... best bet for using the game's brokenness against it: Charizard (because why not?), Tauros, Persian, Jolteon, Dragonite, Slowbro? Interesting team, that. Getting excited here. mandatory lesbian posted:these games are 20 years old it's not like everyone doesn't know the best stuff already Aww, don't be a killjoy.

If they're going to put effort into the R/B rereleases beyond adding the Wifi trading, hopefully they'll add the Super Gameboy colors/borders. I hate that GB Donkey Kong is missing the SGB enhancements.

Victreebel is actually the #1 Grass/Poison type in gen I and the only one in OU. It's the top-ranked Grass-type in the game along with Exeggutor and the top-ranked Poison-type along with Gengar.

Victreebel is hella good almost entirely because Razor Leaf is like the sickest move in RBY. 109% crit rate on Victreebel apparently so 110 BP that ignores Amnesia lmao. It's also the reason why you always pick Bulbasaur as your starter, it's good against like every gym leader except Sabrina and Blaine. Oh and because it learns Sleep Powder too which was also broken in that game.

Still, Persian > Victreebell especially if you pick Bulbasaur, so I think I'll go with Blue.

Persian and Victreebel aren't really similar. Persian is a late game sweeper that can clean up heavily weakened teams. Victreebel is a mixed set up sweeper. I don't really like Persian. Tauros does pretty much everything Persian does but better. Sure, Slash hits harder than Body Slam but Tauros doesn't get hard walled by Gengar and can actually take hits, which allows it to win a lot of last pokemon standing fights if you can keep it healthy until late game.

So, fun fact about Gen 1 that picture doesn't mention. Enemy pokemon don't actually have PP. They can spam their moves forever. They also have two AI settings, "Use one of the moves I have at random"- most things, or "Always use a move with a typing that will do super-effective damage if possible"- Gym Leaders/E-4 Which is why if you bring a posion type to fight Lance his Dragonite will use Agility forever.

Zore posted:So, fun fact about Gen 1 that picture doesn't mention. Last time I played Red, it was a Nuzlocke and I was getting worried that I would get Hyper Beamed to death, so I figured I could do Leech Seed and Toxic with my Venusaur to keep regaining life and stall it out. Then Dragonite refused to attack.

Anyway the point is I wanted to try the move out and it missed and I was stuck using it forever on a pokemon 30 levels lower than me, completely at the mercy of waiting for it to finally kill me.
