I usually tried to simulate the order they're encountered in RBY; regardless of how much legwork had to be done to do that. Brock first, then Misty, then Lt. Surge and so on. Every time I come back to this forum I'm made nostalgic about Pokemon (of course) and want to play again...

I think he did his job well. He was an arrogant SOB and I enjoyed beating him every time. Certainly even on 2nd or 3rd playthrough he was still relatively challenging (especially the Cerulean Bridge fight).

Never used it in any of the times I've played through. In fact, I still don't even know what the specifics of the glitch are though I suppose I could Google it and find out.

Weezing and Slowbro have been mentioned but I'll second them as not obvious but surprisingly tanky choices.

Oh forgot about Ursaring, yeah, that's probably 2nd worst for me after Unown. Surprised at the hate for Delibird - I thought that Pokemon was pretty cool.

I think nostalgia is definitely enough. Nostalgia is a massively powerful force and these games are two of the most popular that have ever been released in the industry's (not only this franchise / Nintendo's) history. Players love to reminisce even if the "old days" weren't as good as they...

Never in all the years of playing have I won a single thing from that damn lottery.

Today officially marks the day that Avalon: The Legend Lives turns TWENTY SIX years old since its inception in late 1989. This time last year the game had just begun its regrowth and return to intensive development after a quiet period in 2013/14 and we celebrated the 25th anniversary with an...

A revamp of Yellow akin to Fire Red / Leaf Green would be cool but otherwise, whatever.

I just played through Yellow using no rare candies and barely missed them - though they are a superb item. I think exp-all (later exp-share) is probably one of my favourites.

I did this when I first played Yellow - at the time I thought it was super cool. Haven't done it since though because Ash really isn't that good.

This was the first in the series where I really enjoyed exploring the world. I kind of felt like after this point the Pokedex started to get too big and it always felt a little out of control so rather than obsessing on that (as I usually did in prio games, though I still captured everything I...

In Yellow for me it was the ability to almost follow the path of the anime with getting Pikachu + the 3 original starters. Something unique to the games that's not been imitated since. I'll echo one of the others though where I'll say that getting through the Elite 4 with a skilled, balanced...

I've just started another game of Leaf Green and I've been OCD-planning my team for a couple of days. What do you guys think of this lineup (I don't have moves or EVs yet, just an idea of the team composition): Venusaur Tentacruel Jolteon Jynx Ninetales Fearow I almost always run with a...

Aqua all the way. Why is this even a debate!
