Boo to the guy dissing on Gen 1. And for you all that don't care about transfers your phone with an emulator acts as a free gb-gba. You also get the benefit of x2 speed which helps a lot with the slow speed of the originals. I played all of yellow and Ruby with animations over the last two weeks and it was badass. My critique of yellow is that since you get all of the starters there isn't much motivation to catch a bunch of mons and makes the game feel too easy. I would play red or blue if I were to do it again.

Ruggington posted:Weird, my wishlist goes: After just discovering Pro I will be severely disappointed if Sun/Moon isn't the start of the official Pokemon MMO revolution. It is crazy how much Nintendo has dropped the ball on innovating, and advancing Pokemon to the modern era of gaming.

Dabir posted:Lol whatever the gently caress the modern era of gaming is, crowbarring a decades-old singleplayer RPG series into a poo poo MMO isn't the way to be part of it. Are you one of those massive weirdos who thought ESO was a good idea? It is a general statement you jackass. It has been 20 years, and Nintendo has done barley anything with one of the most successful franchises ever, other than reskin crap dungeon crawlers/candy crush. The main series are fine, and all, but we could have had way more interesting spin-offs if another company was handling it. I'm not saying PRO is amazing or anything, I probably won't play it, but it just highlights the potential the franchise has that hasn't even been explored.

Xander B Coolridge posted:I can vouch for this. I spent last week researching and collecting items for breeding as well as catching Dittos with the DexNav. It took roughly two evenings after work to find half a box full of 2+ IV Dittos with various natures. The rest of the time was spent collecting the items. Wonder trade them into the open arms of little child you monster!

Oxyclean posted:Man, a gen with full availability would be great, but yeah that totally won't happen because box exists so it's not like you even need two systems to transfer, and how else could they sell you more games? Although ORAS did a decent job on legendary availability, I'm honestly a bit surprised by it. But don't you see?!?! MONEY!!!!!!

Crosspeice posted:Pikachu is usable for the entire game, but it really falls apart towards the end. You usually rely on it to outspeed stuff and use Thunder Wave, which saved my rear end in a number of battles. But starting from Blaine, you uh kinda got outspeeded and then one shot. No..No it doesn't. Pikachu has 2 uses in Yellow. 1. To help you catch a caterpie. 2. To get that lady to fork over Bulbasaur. Then you put it in the box, and enjoy the rest of the game.

Amppelix posted:Look, guy, pokemon is an easy game. Extremely easy. And pikachu has a cute sprite while it follows you around. So you keep the pikachu. I'm sorry I don't buy into this pika propaganda. The little rat who refuses to live up to it's full potential sits in the box. It's that simple. There is a world of pokes who would love to join my team, and help me become the best there ever was.

The disconnect between the games and the show that I disliked most is that in the show the lower evolutions had just as much potential as the last stages. If I want to roll with bulbasaur the whole time I shouldn't be punished. Make him faster but with less attack or something like that.

This is the best answer I found. "When Flaaffy evolves into Ampharos, the pokemon will shed it's wool. The newly evolved Ampharos will then pick up the wool and fashion it into a hat. If the hat is fabulous enough, it will attach to the Ampharos's head and the great Dragon Gods of Fashion will smile down upon the electric sheep, taking the pokemon as one of their own." Though.. " Denryu. Ryu=current, Ryuu=Dragon. Amphy´s japanese name means "Electrical current"." So ryu is close enough to dragon that they made it dragon.

Ruggington posted:cute monsters for children pandering to a higher age bracket loses the entire point Aging doesn't mean it necessarily has to curse or have blood but watching an idiot build up for failure 6+ times is pretty disheartening. This is coming from someone who has watched og and half of johto like 5 times. I just feel the original season had a deeper tone.
