Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
Sapphire. Although I'm really liking Pokemon White.
I've actually yet to play HeartGold or SoulSilver. Need to do that at one point

Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
Hmm. Probably Fire Red, the fact being that a lot of the pokemon Romhacks I do so like are based on that one, Pokemon Advanced Adventure and Pokemon Fire Red Omega come to mind in that regard. That said, my favorite Pokemon romhack of all is actually based on Ruby. That would be Pokemon Snakewood, the romhack set in a post-apocalypse where the ultimate goal is saving the world rather than being "teh champion", all whilst maintaining a level of humor and serious story. (Like, death and stuff).
Plus, I get to use my sinny naming set for my team:

In terms of vanilla games, I have a thing for Diamond.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
rom hacks would be fun to play. I wonder how to find them? are you playing via emulator?
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
My favorite has to be Pokemon Yellow. This one was my favorite as a kid because you got to start with Pikachu a your first pokemon and during the game you could get Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle making for a pretty good party in the later stages of the game. Plus this was the first time a pokemon was outside its pokeball because Pikachu would refuse to use a ball.

Yeah. Can't really give you any information though as it's a legal grey area and I donna need trouble right now. Shoot a PM at my face if you're really interested.

i remember having a pokemon yellow japanese version as a kid and it would have been much cooler if i could have understood anything. being an 8 or 9 year old i wasnt smart enough to realize that the affirmative would have been the top option. IDR what i did with that game but i wish i had played that more. I wound up getting blue version and playing the absolute crap out of that game.
Anybody remember the cinnabar island glitch?
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
I've heard of the cinnabar glitch but I've never done it before.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
I dont remember exactly what you had to do but i remember you could get the pokemon "missing no" and there was an item glitch that gave you lots of whatever was (i think) the seventh item in your bag.
those were the days playing the old gameboy under a lamp.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
I'd would say emerald 386 (rom hack). This game offers what any pokemon game should offer. All of the first 3 generations in one game, and you can obtain all of them, how awesome is that? The story and such stays the same, you have some added areas to find legendaries and some rare pokemon.
Not counting hacks, i'd say pokemon crystal
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
Pokemon Blue would be my all time favorite, purely because it was the first Pokemon game to get me "catch" into the Pokemon franchise but then I can't really call that 'favorite'. I've enjoyed most of the Pokemon games and the Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky would rank as my favorite. I find it extraordinary playing as the Pokemon with a reasonable storyline. The characters were lovable and the music, I thought, was good.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
*holds hands up* My favorite game is Pokémon Black. Don't murder me, okay!!
It is challenging, but no so insanely hard that I wanted to give up. It gave me a sense of accomplishment to get my starter and legednary to lvl 100.
The story was actually really good, and I found myself sympathizing for N.
And in my opionion, the way the gym leaders are ordered just makes more sense. Unlike other games, such as Soulsilver, my next favorite, where the leaders are in a random arrangement (most of the time. Like a flying type gym first, then a bug type. Seriously?!) most of the time (having an ice-type right before a dragon-type.).
My second fav is Black 2. The characters are verty good and well thought out, the story is okay (but they it some continuity errors) and I really love the Curtis/Yancy thing.
My third is Soulsiler, forthe same reasons everyone else loves it.

You don't want to. It pretty much permanently messes up your game.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
Cinnabar island glitch could mess up your game i think you had ro catch missingno to mess up the game but i really dont remember as i havent played blue in a very long time.
@GaHoolianGirl100 I think your post is totally legit. pokemon black and white were very well designed games and the story lines in them are something that actually make sense. The antagonist's logic is severely flawed but thats usually the case with the bad guys.
@Ensifer I was waiting for someone to say the mystery dungeon games. They were very fun and it was cool playing as the pokemon. I just prefer the team building aspect of the regular games.
did anybody play Pokemon Conquest? I liked that game because i really liked advanced wars and i love pokemon but that game just didnt quite do it for me. it just seemed pointless :frown: it was fun seeing the pokemon though.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
I saw you can't beat the original. Pokemon Red.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
i understand the nostalgic love for the originals but what would make them actually better games than heartgold or fire red?
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
I liked the original Pokemon Gold the best, not sure why but I just couldn't get into Heart Gold.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
my sister and i played the crap out of gen 2 on our GBCs. I had silver and she had gold.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
Pokemon Silver there was a good game. I spent months playing that game only to end up getting beat by Red in the last battle. I swear it tool me like 4 months once I got to him to actually get a good enough team to beat his pokemon. I actually found my Silver game and looked at the team I had which was made of Feraligatr, Ursaring, Pidgeot, Dragonite, Gengar and Arcanine.

Probably the mantra of the originals being the 'originals', not sequels or prequels or anything. As in, it was the first.
To be fair I'm torn between Red/Blue and Gold/Silver. Both are brilliant games and both were played the crap out of by me. Unfortunately, due to the whole concept of originals being the originals, I would have to say Red is my more favourite. I actually had all 151 pokemon on it too (a friend had Blue so we traded, and someone else managed to get a Mew from a Nintendo game center thing and he cloned it for us). Just a shame the internal battery in the cart failed eventually and I lost everything. v.v
Aside from those, where's the love for Pokemon Puzzle League? Or am I the only one who liked that game (and thought the AI weren't really that hard)?
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
@Ranshiin I never played Puzzle League. And I understand liking originals, in most cases im that was as well, but in this case the remakes were the originals to a T and more. i feel like that little girl in the AT&T commercial

Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
Soul Silver is by far my favorite, mainly because it was my first Pokemon game. Every other time, I played someone else's game. This one was my very own. I also liked the pokewalker, not just for leveling up, but also because it helped me stick to my exercise routine since it counted my steps as I walked. Great motivation for a lazy gamer, give them something that levels something up in their game.
Re: Favorite Pokemon Game
@GuiltySpark I've played Pokemon Conquest and I quite enjoyed my time playing it, though I don't think many would agree. Personally I found the game pose no challenge, which was quite a disappointment. The artwork was reasonably good and gameplay was entertaining for the most part.

Sounds like a good team. I like all those pokemon a lot but id probably have used a fighting type or electric type in place of ursaring. Feraligator is the way to go in gen 2 starters.
