I have a question about your comments on the PokeFans. With the woman, you make a joke about "peek at you", did she have a Pikachu or was that meant to be for the guy who has an obsession with The 'Chu?

Nah she has a Pikachu also, but I don't really find much point showing Pokemon we've already seen. After all, my LP shouldn't be the perfect Pokemon experience, it should be playing them yourself to see what I left out.

I always found Lemonade way more covenient than Moomoo Milk. At least, until they started allowing you to buy in bulk.

I'm gonna go with Voltorb (and Electrode). I hope one day they'll implement Voltorb evolving if the player holds their system upside down, like Inkay.

Have you all forgotten about Horsea? The developers cared so little about it, they half-assed the name of it.

Battles between two dudes that only know harden is hilarious.

It also is evolves into Butterfree whose Confusion attack is really your only hope against Brock if you chose Charmander. Unless you're playing Yellow because you can get a Mankey.

Hilariously enough, if you don't have a flyer, and you traded Finneon and he was your only surfer? You're stuck there until you A. Train that Magikarp or B.If you had an open space, fish up a surfer.

Yeah, but it's not surprising people forget about fishing, cause they usually pick their Water type by then. But I was pretty surprised at the variety of Pokemon you can fish up with the Old Rod in Crystal, made me kinda regret picking Poliwag so early. And there's a smaller, but still pretty cool amount of Pokemon to get with the Good Rod.

Silegna posted:Yes, I believe it was linked in the Yellow thread that Ash FORGOT ATTRACT DIDN'T WORK ON THE SAME GENDER. Not even just things like that, but also things like: Let's have a bunch of rivals, but we don't know what to do with them and didn't give any resolutions to any of their arcs Including the main rival, who had no arc, was knocked out in round one of the league, and basically replaced by a different rival for half the series Let's have a giant rotating team of pokemon, but still focus on the starters to the point where the reserves don't do anything (I think Ash used Palpitoad 3 times total after catching it) Let's have a designated recurring training area, but only use them once and instead bring in tournaments Let's have recurring tournaments, but limit them to one on one matches Let's have an extended filler arc but do nothing with anyone in it Let's have an early league, but rush through it and make the first rounds one-on-ones and so on I kind of get the feeling they had more plans that they threw away after the earthquake.

The X and Y anime is far better written but there are still ways they can screw it up.

You can make a small octopus into a handgun. It does not have to be an entirely different kind of animal.

Finally! I reached the end. Loved the Yellow LP and just lost the time to read for a while, but here I am. I am depressed we aren't using Eevee again. Aithon posted:evolving if the player holds their system upside down, like Inkay. What. I didn't even believe you, I ran to Bulbapedia to look it up. How on Earth are you supposed to know to do that if you don't have a guide?
