I FINALLY FOUND THE FREAKING THING. I'd first like to direct everyone's attention to this page: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Talk:Headbutt_(move) , regarding how little anyone actually knows regarding headbutt trees. Specifically at the bottom of the page, where it is mostly Gen II...

Honestly, I'd have just been happy if they hadn't introduced any, but just given you an actual opportunity to use Kanto's fossils for a reasonable portion of the game. I'm a big fan of Omanyte/Omastar, and I know lots of people like the Kabutops design, but never being able to use them before...

The first game I actually owned was Yellow version (got it the same day I got a GBC)... I don't exactly remember everything, but I remember some, including that I boxed Pikachu at like level 20. Clefable was my ace at like level 65, Exeggutor was probably my best mon though. I also had a...

I think it's almost entirely this. At a certain point (around early college age, 20ish), most people I know get a severe nostalgia trip. For me it was stuff like Beast Wars, the original Pokémon games, etc. Along that same vein, most people I know (including myself) stopped after Gold/Silver...

So, I have one update done in Gold now for my fighting monotype, but I seem to have hit a bit of a snag. I can't find a Heracross. Like, anywhere. According to basically everywhere online, it should be available in headbutt trees in any route between New Bark and Azalea. I have literally put...

Username: TheSpud What instruments you play? Any brass instrument, and dabbled a little in both voice and keys at college. I've also done a fair bit of arranging. Trumpet is my main though, and what I went to school for. Why are you joining the club? Because musicians are awesome people...

Yes, of course I used the Red Gyarados on my team the first time through, I feel like almost everyone did. However, it was not my first shiny. My first time playing my Silver version, I was 10 years old at a friends house, a group of us had all just got it and were playing together. No one...

Until fairly recently, I hadn't played a pokemon game since Gold/Silver way back in early '00s (it doesn't seem like that long!). A buddy clued me in to playing them using modern tech on a crazy nostalgia binge, and I'm hooked again. Made the plunge to buy the new version and it's amazing how...
