i had a brilliant idea - what if i googled "pokemon green translation." guess what? it worked, and now i know the answer to that question: it's yes.

no, the GBA remakes just had really nice sprites of the modern version of Pokémon. also I just remembered that Gold/Silver had different sprites for each version. as I recall then neither was better than the other to me, but I played Silver first so I always preferred that so I was more used to it. these differences have apparently inspired many disputes on the internet

Mudkip- (mud-skip/kip/mudskipper) This one was actually sort of tricky. The
"mud" is obviously because Mudkip and its line live in swampy, muddy areas, but
the "kip" is a bit more mysterious. If it stands for "skip," as in "skipping
across the mud," then this name really belongs in the Tier 3 section. However,
there are about 6 definitions of kip, and 2 that make sense are: the hide of a
young or small beast, and a male fish (especially salmon). Mudkip is
definitely a small beast, and could easily be compared to a fish. As it turns
out, a mudskipper is a real, fish-like animal which can travel on land.

word. I like these early variations, when it wasn't set in stone how the designs were portrayed. anyway in my super slow Blue playthrough I am currently at Rock Tunnel. my trusty Clefairy, FLASH FM, is lighting our way through.

You're absolutely right. I got a good rhythm going and made almost one thousand in about half an hour. The pro tip is to find one super rigged machine and milk it as much as possible

Cerulean cave is the fastest, but if you don't mind sitting through text and the credits, the Elite 4 can get you cash and good EXP.
