>we've included the map from the original game as a secret post-game areaHow many other games do something like this?
>>72064170917
>>720641709Rayman Legends lets you unlock all levels from Rayman Origins.Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike has the entire campaign of Rogue Leader as unlockable. But only coop for some reason.
>>720642294Well if they let you just play the entire previous game any way you wanted there would be no point to buy the old game
>>720641709Yokai Watch 3 except the previous game map is a side story which combines worh the main plot later
>>720641709None have had the same impact as GSC, this was groundbreaking at the time and is taken for granted today, and outright shat on by nugen revisionists. I'll never understand how anyone can hate such an objectively amazing feature, other than for reasons of jealousy.
I sure do hope a broccoli head doesn't start screeching about how Kanto had nothing in it and then eventually just nonsequiturs into chimping out over Gen 5 til bump limit
>>720641709Metroid Prime and Zero Mission let you unlock the original Metroid game
>>>/vp/
>>720641709>secret post gameIf not for Kanto gen 2 would be the most hated for how short and low cap it is
>>720641709I miss the magic of Pokemon games man, I went from this blue to silver to stadium to colosseum and I though this series was flawless, then I saw them sticking to handhelds for years and just gave up on it
>>720641709dragon quest 2 (dq1)dragon quest 3 (dq1)
>>720641709This blew my fucking mind as a kid. I wasn't spoiled on the game at all and checking my map to see that they included all of Kanto was so completely unexpected.
Medievil Remake's 100% reward is the PS1 version
>>720644138Yep was crazy.
>>720641709>>720644138This is now a Gen 2 SOVL thread
>>720644612
>>720644612Sure, why not.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XjouKSkSeM
didn't golden sun 2 do that, as well as a campaign import? loved those, blew my retarded little mind back then.>>720644612based. i loved crystal so much, it just had that special essence to it. equal parts fun, mysterious, and expansive. while i enjoyed hgss, it just didn't have the mystique crystal does still. random bit, but i loved the asshole rival. he was actually a decent trainer, though the story showed he was just slave driving his team and didn't really care about them. i'd love a romhack that upped the difficulty and modernized it just slightly.
>>720645524It gets mentioned in like every thread but Polished Crystal is basically exactly what you're asking for. It modernizes a lot of elements, keeps to the actual spirit of the original, ups the difficulty, and even fleshes out the Kanto locations they had to minimize due to hardware space.
>>720644612>be pokemon enthusiast>encounter red gyrados>dang that's cool, he's unique>never used him in battle>years pass>learn that shiny pokemon were a thing, never encounter them in the wildfeels bad man
>>720645524The DS remakes are slightly harder
>>720643370The clock and day/night cycle were the shit.
Monster Hunter Dos had you go back to the village in Monster Hunter 1 and hunt all of those monsters. Very, very cool.

>>720645721>Polished Crystalthanks, i'll look into it>>720645776eh not enough. i don't need to sweat, but i don't wanna easily clear teams either.
>>720641709Back when GS came out, was the Kanto thing a big marketing point or did they keep its inclusion to a minimum? It got me wondering since a lot of people seem to have been taken by complete surprise by it during their first playthrough. Honestly huge props if they kept such a big part of the game under wraps.
>>720646123>was the Kanto thing a big marketing pointNo, it was completely unannounced. Back then, not everyone had the Internet, so we got to experience everything new as it was happening. Game devs also took pride in rewarding their players without big fanfares and marketing videos surrounding the ingame secrets. If GSC was released in 2025, Kanto would be shilled to high heaven and would probably be DLC. That's how far we have strayed.
>>720646123For me and my circle it was a surprise, I don't remember it in any pre release magazines until the guides came out
>>720646362
>>720646123Marketing?For... The sequel to Pokémon?No. They were like, there's a sequel to Pokém- oh you've already bought it.
>>720646123I heard nothing about it; I think this came out right in a nice golden time when the internet/gaming media wasn't too wide spread and leaks/data miners were not a thing. Plus Pokemon was peak so the "Wait there's more?!" feeling was flawless and I doubt will ever happen again. Nostalgia or not, I'm happy I was able to expereince it.
>>720646123It was a total surprise, I don't remember anybody expecting it and when I discovered it myself kids didn't believe me at first. Shit was crazy.
>>720646561
>>720646123Gold was the first game I owned. I played Blue before but that was with my cousin. When I got to Kanto, it took me beating the first gym to realize where I was and was mindblown afterwards. I don't remember anyone sating anything about it. Nobody even really mentioned it after a while because everything was mindblowing back then so that was just another thing for the pile. It just felt like you were playing the latest most badass version of pokemon so you were not questioning much as akid.
>>720645816>>720646123>>720646362>Announce a new game>Don't say anything about half the fucking content in it being that you can re-explore the region from the original game>Not just that, but you've also remixed every single track instead of just using them, and updated the region to reflect the passage of time with some of the new remixes reflecting that as well>Everyone discovers this as a total fucking surpriseGameFreak was built so different back then
This short ass thread hitting all the nostalgia. Gonna dig out my old GB and copies of Gold/Silver and enjoy them. Now I understand dudes that can play 15-20 yo games like it was day 1 release and be happy.
>>720647413They really were. We didn't know just how good we had it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JNaXakPAoc
>>720641709>we've included a shitty, shrunken down, empty, underleveled, moribund version of the original game's map, sorry for making the new area so small and braindead easy the elite four is in the 30sGS ended up being so soulless it's unbelievable. They should never have brought Masuda in to fuck it up.
>>720647115>So what are your thoughts on the current influx of Unovans into our region?>Ampharos!>Jesus fucking christ
>>720645343I remember like, holy fuck it must have been 15 years ago now, there was a thread that started with that exact video and it was just nothing but people sharing there nostalgic experiences with the game. And there was that thread a while back where a mod had music from the soundtrack playing with a big blastoise sprite in the corner of the screen just completely randomly. Something about Pokemon nostalgia seems to bring out the best in this board, especially the first two gens.
>>720646561>>720647369
>>720644885>>720645816
>>720645870Polished gives some of the hgss stuff but it’s not bad, the extra stuff at the endgame does really help.

When did Pokémon lose its soul?
>>720644612Alright lads here comes the Stadium 2 SOVL
>>720644612Fuck, I still have a Gen 2 Living Dex that needs to be finished. Beat Gen 2 (twice), still need to play Yellow.
>>720643031;-;
>>720647941kino overload!
>>720648373i'd say at gen 3. just took a weird turn and never felt right after that.
>>720648373It was most soulful during Gens 1 and 2 but I don't think it actually lost its soul until gen 6. Gen 5 felt like the last time GameFreak was still trying and I almost wonder if the poor reception at the time didn't do something to them psychologically.
>>720648373When they swapped from sprites to 3D models
>>720648414
>>720648705>>720648768Yeah, that seems like a consensus. Except for people that grew with the latest gens, but they don't count anyway.
>>720648771https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MsOs7ysgAY
>>720641709>included>as an excuse to make less new stuffGamefreak has been scamming us since the beginning
>>720648771When did Kris appear in Stadium 2?
>>720648373Gen 3 was the turning point. Not being able to trade from Gen 2, and missing half the dex unless you buy 4 other games across different platforms - this was the first time Nintendo and Game Freak really started getting greedy. Greed is a soul killer.
>>720649092
>>720644612pokemon red/blue have an iconic legendary aura but gold is basically the good number 2, like terminator 2 etc, lose a bit of the unique OG aura, but its a bit more refined and its so fuckign good, its the powerhouse game. no doubt pokemon gold is the best pokemon game of the entire series. just lackign abit of the aura of the first as the pokemon design went a bit specific
>>720649463
They managed to introduce gen2 pokemon so gradually and naturally. I still remember seeing the first movie and wondering wtf was that spinning pokemon. It really felt like a natural expansion to gen1.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA0RhJAda2M
>>720647115>if you acquire the max of 30 points on your points card, choosing not to spend any of them, Buena gives you her phone numberI wonder how few people got this naturally without a guide>if you get her phone number before the Rocket takeover of the radio tower she has unique dialogue when you call her>this takes playing every day between 6PM to midnight for 30 days, without getting seven badges
The best cast of Pokemon of any game. Every single one of these is the embodiment of soul.
>>720645743SameI didn't really play the series beyond G/S so I never got the chance to roll the dice enough to see one in the wild, became something I heard about later and thought "huh, neat" but at that point I was done with Pokemon. Kinda too bad, would have probably been a pretty cool experience as a kid.
>>720650886At first I was like, I miss shit like this but really, I miss the natural exploration and discovery. If that was in a game now it would be in guides, twitter leak, reddit posting and data mining threads in hours.
>>720641709>most kino and beloved generation in the franchise outside of the first one>don't repeat said mechanic againJaps are low IQThey should have let us visit Pokefrance in Galar
>>720651305 You could just...not use the Internet when the game comes out??
>>720651536>that typing styleHoly shit, a girl on /v/!
>>720650887
>>720653497She's rightI remember once as a kid just biking across both of the regions just for the sake of it, thinking it was cool to be able to travel across such a "big" world. I guess I was more easily amused back then.

>>720651794LONDONONDON
It's not a secret at all you can't get to the E4 without going there.
>>720651305Wut? Guides always existed. I would get my parents to constantly print them out in the 90s. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills when I see posts like these.
>>720648373Gen 4. Slow, ugly, bad new designs, forgettable boring music, handholdy.
I can appreciate the "vibes" of johto but goddamn GSC/HGSS is boring.
>>720650735Donphan blew every kid's mind in the cinema, to this day he's still one of my favourite pokemon.

>>720658679Tire spinning elephant is cute. Played a hack that gave it Speed Boost as an ability recently which was cool and fitting.
>>720658679I remember pulling on my mom's sleeve and going "MOM THAT'S A NEW ONE!" in theaters with every kid there freaking out. Good times.
Silksong did this. The game rolls credits at the end of Act 2, gives you no indication that there's an Act 3, and gives you no clues as to the criteria to unlock it. For the first few days of the game's release, people were arguing whether Act 3 even exists. Then it changes many areas of the map, unlocks a bunch of new bosses and quests, let's you return to an area from the first game, and unlocks a different ending. If you were playing the game in a cabin in the woods, you could very well just put it down after Act 2 thinking the game was over.>but I have Silksong fatigueOkay>but it isn't comparable to KantoKanto in GSC was a half-finished version of itself with no sense of progression. Many of Kanto's dungeons were neutered or even removed, and it was basically an excuse to beat up a bunch of gum leaders in rapid succession. Still cool and still my favorite generation.
>>720659349I wonder if any of the parents who were forced to take their stupid kids to these stupid movies were actually able appreciate that the animation and background art had some soul. This was well before anime was familiar to Westerners.
>>720641709>secret
>>720660686Given that to this day animation = kiddy shit with the older generations, doubtful.
>>720660686My mom actually liked the anime, she sat down and decided to watch it with me because she figured there must be something to it if every kid in America loved it. She actually really liked the background art and scenery and would point out when the animation got better.
>>720655073I love wooper so much. his goofy little smile is so charming.
>>720648705>>720648915Gen 5 is still prety maligned and with good reason sometimes but I still think it's the last time they gave a shit.
>>720661429It was
>>720641709Is this a bot?
>>720661429It very clearly was. Gen 6 felt half-baked, 7 felt like they kiiiind of tried but couldn't fully commit, and everything after that has just been muck.
>>720641709finding kanto post game was literally only enjoyable the first time. now it's just a chore if you want to fight red after the league. there's literally nothing to do in kanto.
>>720646123No, not at all. Kanto wasn't even called Kanto in gen 1, a lot of people thought it was called Indigo because that was the name of the league. When you first step into kanto, some fat guy tells you where you are and to check your map. I was just like "wut the fuk"
>>720650887This is all you needGood god life used to be so much better
>>720661857Gen 6 is kind of a finished game, a very barebones and underwhelming one but kinda barely passes the finish line. Gen 7 for all its attempts at improvments, is blatantly unfinished. So much shit is half baked, pointless, incomplete... yet they had a chance to fix it with Ultra, but other than alter the difficulty, all they did was do that pandery Team Rocket thing and made Lusamine worse, so Alola still felt wrong as a region. And for the same price as the originals. Awful. The beginning of the end.
>>720650887it really is amazing how much they can convey with just 4 colors. There are a lot of later gen pokemon that I don't think you could realistically display with these limitation.
>>720646362>and would probably be DLCNot just that, it'd be DLC announced before the game itself is even out, given how Legends: Z-A is going. Just off the cuff admitting "we have no confidence in this game, so here's Kanto, BUY NOW FOR 100 BUCKS TOTAL!"
>>720662516>Gen 6 is kind of a finished game, a very barebones and underwhelming one but kinda barely passes the finish lineA bunch of ideas that were planned for a third version in gen 6 were shoehorned into gen 7 because they decided not to make a third version. It's fine if you want to consider XY complete games, but that would be like saying diamond and pearl were complete games despite platinum adding a bunch of very important elements that weren't in the first two
>>720662818Don't take my statement as high praise. Its elements make enough for the bare minimum of a Pokemon game which is more than I can say about the Alola experience but that's where my praise ends. I said it still was a really underwhelming experience and I don't want to play it ever again. And compared to what came after, I do consider DaiPa finished.
>>720662818Not only that, the Teraleaks revealed that the long speculated "South Kalos" was initially mapped out to be far more expansive than what we got, and all of it was basically shelved in order to go full steam ahead towards developing Gen 7 since having a game ready for Pokemon's big 20th was more important to the grand scheme of things.
>>720644612>those colours
>>720663007what's amazing about that is that the inaccessible landmass connected to north eastern paldea would literally have been south kalos if the real world inspiration is any indicator, and yet it still turned out to be nothing.
Do you guys prefer GSC or HGSS?
>>720641709If Kanto is "post-game", gen 2 has the shittiest main region by a huge margin.
>>720663737Yup, there's still that weirdly blacked out part of the map even after SV's DLC. They're really afraid of letting you actually travel from one region to another in any capacity, even if the areas of that region would be completely new.Kitakami's not even a real region but instead some backwater boonie mountain that's south of Sinnoh, and Blueberry Academy, while it is Unova, is way off in the ocean rather than being anywhere near its landmasses.
>>720649463Entei had a cool design. Not so sure I like the others in that trio.
>>720641709Did your ban not expire yesterday?
>>720659349I've learned that sitting close to waterfalls isn't as pleasing as it might look. They're fucking loud
>>720664221GSC, well C. It's "snappier"
>>720661039I tried to rewatch pokemon indigo after all these years but every mon yapping their own names over and over again got old real fast. Now I want to try again, thanks ass hole
Not one positive post about the gameplay.
>>720664821These threads are just fake childhood stories about how they peaked in 2nd grade. Kinda sad de su.
>>720664821Gameplay is the same as all the other Pokemon games, so why would we need to talk about this? Obviously the aesthetic and beautiful music is really what makes the games stand out as the best in the series.
>>720665415Incorrect. But you don't give a shit about battling anyway.Where's the schizo from yesterday about how Johto has zero problems?
>>720665472What's wrong with the battles?

>>720665610oh boy here we go again
>>720665723Thread was fun while it lasted, but the faggots always come a-knocking and people always start a-biting the bait.
>>720649225No, they just found a way to fit it into memory with some kind of programming trick, can't remember exactly though. They just thought it was cool, they used to just be fucking nerds before becoming soulless pigs.
>>720664221I was in camp HGSS is a straight upgrade since release but now I find myself going Crystal.
>>720665690There really was no type overlap between Kanto and Johto gyms huh
>>720665472I'll be honest with you, you've arrived at the thread too late. 100 soul posts at the front of the thread drown out your cope and seethe posts. You've already lost this one, you're better off retreating to your safespace on /vp/ at this stage.

>>720649265When you use your Crystal game with the transfer pack, duh
>>720665914>>720666001I checked the thread over. Almost every soul post has at least a minute gap. Not dodging the samefag allegations.
>>720665690>Gym leaders will never look this cool ever again I still can't even explain how mad I am about the current state of Pokemon, why did they take this away from us?

>>720641709Mario does this with 1-1 all the time
I’m suspecting GTAVI will include liberty city and eventually San Andreas (which is guaranteed money)
I want to buy a transfer pack and gen 2 version to play again my n64 but how hard would be to get a legit gb game? I wouldn't care if I could just get a cheap copy but I remember not all bootlegs work on stadium, some did
>>720644138For me it was this
>>720666310HGSS got rid of her seethrough dress...
>>720667029Yup, I remember playing japanese silver on an emulator before the usa release and getting to this part was really god like
>>720641709the last gen with sovl...
>>720667010Not very hard at all, also you could just use your old games and replace the battery, that works too. Definitely recommended, GSC combined with Stadium 2 is the definitive Pokemon experience, nothing else comes close (except maybe RBY with Stadium 1)
>>720667002Galaxy did it with Whomp's Fortress.
>>720667171standalone stadium 2 is better>wahh wahh rentals ba-buck up
>>720667171I know I beat them back in the day but sadly I don't have my original game boy games anymore, I remember trading crystal and a little money for a game boy advance.I just have my n64 right now with games.
>>720667002>>720667184Mm, not really the same as bringing back an entire RPG map from a prior game (and I love Mario btw)
>>720667321>entire RPG mapGSC neutered the fuck out of it and removed areas
>>720667280>standalone stadium 2 is betterlol no, just because you can't play it mean its better zoomie.I used the doduo, dodrio tower so much, having your own pokemon showing up on the minigames was better too, saving tons of pokemon on the lab, teaching your pikachu surf, getting priced pokemon with exclusive moves to use them on the gb games... damn you missed so much shit
>>720643031They butchered Kanto in order to fit two regions. This is an objective fact.
>>720667010gameboy carts are not generalized. a lot of them have their own unique hardware in them. the fake pokemon games can generally trade with each other and real carts, but stadium 1 and 2 can't verify that they are pokemon carts because of the hardware differences. from what I've been able to gather, fake pokemon games do not work with stadium, colosseum, or gale of darkness.however if you want, you CAN load pokemon roms and save files into a nintendo 64 emulator and play the stadium games with your emulator pokemon.
>>720667441>i missed literally nothing>you can't beat a baby game even with the infinite continue glitchnice.
>>720667280some of the trainers you fight have higher level pokemon than any of the rentals. how is that fair
>>720667029Today I will remind them
>>720667541I never used glitches like you do anon, I had to replay some cups and gym leader tower battles and never felt better, you learn from it, why would I cheat a game and call it easy? Sound like you're just a shitter
Quick reminder to thank Iwata for the Kanto thing. Blew my mind as a kid, as said in the thread, I didn't knew about it, nobody knew about it, the other kids in the recess knew about it until one day, little by little, the information started to spread but nobody would believe you and would call you a liar. Until you weren't, and everybody's mind was blown in real time almost at the same time.It was fucking surreal.Thanks for letting me, for letting us, know that feel, Iwata.
>>720641709>shafted people who picked Chikorita my making nearly every gym and Team Rocket member strong against Grass>gave too much focus to Gen 1 Pokemon and not enough to the new ones>level curveGSC were poorly designed games, and I’m glad Meganium is finally getting the respect he deserves with a new mega even if it’s overdue.
>>720667646they only do in poke cup retard-kun
>>720667515Nintendo's GBC carts were limited in size, they corrected this around the GBA era and beyond.
>>720667702It wasn't Iwata behind Kanto, Iwata helped but at the end GF itself did it
>>720666814>>720667029
>>720667653>region has areas walled off by surf before you can even get it in areas you never have any reason to go back toI didn't know union cave, slowpoke well, or mt mortar had anything in them until WAY after I beat the games.
>>720667539Anon, I know all that, I tested and used original and bootleg pokemon gb games with stadium 1 & 2 and some bootleg games worked fine with stadium while others didn't, I was asking if someone tested "modern" bootleg games and knew for a fact wich ones worked fine on stadium because I wouldn't want to buy random shit and get a non compatible one.
>>720667801They should have put more effort into making Johto feel like a full region that could stand on its own than shoehorning in KANTOOOOOOOO
>>720665690>no hag dragon clair gf
>>720667441Let me guess, Challenge Cup is too hard?
>>720667815I thought he was the one that came up with the compression method and then it snowballed from there
>>720667902I wonder if it was always the plan to put kanto in the games, because otherwise johto itself would be pathetic.
>>720667942No, it isn't, why would be? I were good enough to start ev training back then, like, just beat the elite four at 4x speed on dodrio tower, deposit your pokemon in a box and take it out after getting it to lv100 to train it top notch, why would a trivial thing like challenge cup would be difficult?
>>720667949He did, but the anon watched some dumb YouTube video that tries to say >uhm akshully he only did 50% of it and GF did the rest
>>720667902They literally can't since the GBC carts was limited in size.If Nintendo had the capability to shit out a higher capacity one they would.Both Masuda, Iwata, Tsunekazu and Morimoto explained this.
>>720668074Challenge Cup forces you to use a randomized team. You have zero idea what idea you're talking about.

What was the fucking reason for not adding visual differences to the overworld? it wasn't lack of cart space. FrLg didn't even have a day cycle at all, and as a result you can't get espeon or umbreon in ANY gen 3 gameboy game without trading.
>>720668757Trimming the fat
whats the best GBC emulator in 2025
>>720668381gen 2 had something called stat experience instead of EVs. The idea is similar, but it's not the same. You can max out every stat, not just two of them.
>MFW I first got to the Elite 4 and it pointed out that you needed SIXTEEN badges and then found out that you got to go to Kanto after Johto No video game has ever surprised me like that to this very day. Nothing else compares. I remember thinking the future of gaming was bright as fuck due to stuff like this. God, how wrong I was.
>>720668757Gen 3 has absolutely no excuse for any of its problems. That's why it's generally considered to be the turning point for the series.
>>720668661>sheI’m a biological male
>>720668881You are a woman
>>720668843This but for gen 6
>>720668843Gen 3 made up for its shortcomings by giving us a God-tier Dex, good region, abilities, contests and an actual story.
>>720668807all of the gameboy emulators are pretty much flawless for pokemon games, unless you mean a romhack or something that gets rid of trade evolutions and has every pokemon available.
>>720668807Bgb
>>720668838I fucking know, jesus why is so hard to zoomies to keep up? Calling them EV is an oversimplification but the explanation of beating the elite four even if your pokemon is at level 100 and then just boxing it should have been a telltale of what I was talking about if you played the games back then.
>schizo samefags soulposting until the other schizos show upgo back to >>>/vp/ niggers
>>720668881you will never be a woman
>>720668673>you are supposed to be having kids so they can have that feelingShame that women are the gatekeepers of sex and reproduction and they're all delusional feminists now.
>>720668918I will never be a woman and thank God for that.
>>720669021seethe
>>720669020>pretending to be retardedbegone
>>720669020>why is so hard to zoomies to keep upfor explaining something that zoomies wouldn't even know about in the first place?
>>720669021>>>NOOOOOOO, STOP FONDLY REMEMBERING A VIDEO GAME ON THE VIDEO GAME BOARD, REEEEEEEEE!!!!! ONLY RAGEBAIT AND KEK PORN ALLOWED, HISSS
>>720668970lol no>>720668807I tested BGB, Blizhank, Gambatte and Sameboy but I don't remember wich one was the most accurate, the other had sound problems like when you press start to select a save to continue, entering and exiting places, test them and you will find out.
>>720669124He is the zoomie
>>720669116Where did I pretend? I just called your out for not picking up the connection of training your lv100 pokemon and still gaining stats wich was the thing to do before you were even born.Dont get mad for that
>>720669267>needing to train a team for Stadium 2Kekk
>>720669331>doubling down on being a clueless zoomieI accept your concession
>>720669046>and they're all delusional feminists nowno, it's just that there are a lot of things they wont be able to do if they have kids, like party until they're 40 or become an onlyfans whore. the decision to not have kids is purely a selfish one. they hit 40 and realize they're no longer desirable or have any real world experience, so they latch on to the first beta they can, who they will secretly hate and resent because women hate honest hard working men.
>>720669267look at this retardcant beat a stadium game without the gsc crutchlol
>Games are 500x more advanced now>maps are smaller than ever>All "extra content" is now download only, and if you didn't play the game when the download window was open, its gone forever>Games feel smaller than everIt would never happen, but a game where you could fly to different regions would be something fans would never forget>But we can't do that, it would take 1000GB of memoryIt took like 16MB back in the dayDon't pretend that fans want fully 3D environments that much, they don'tFans would gladly embrace fully 2D games if it meant maps got to be bigger and better.They decided to embrace making pokemon games that "look better" rather than games that are better and feel more like a real adventure.Get me a game that lets me travel to three different regions, and you can fight all the protags from the old games in a special coliseum of champions mode, stop just bringing back Red every single game until he's 60 years old, bring back all the protags. Its the one thing the company just can't ever do.
>>720669393lmao zoomie is mad, its ok I will just accept your concession of being a shitter wich never experienced the games 25 years ago
>>720641709Super Circuit has all of the SNES tracks you can unlock
>>720669267Pivoting from "I need to transfer a team in" to "you don't know what stat exp training is" is peak delusion.
>>720667854as minuscule as it is, I hate how HGSS made this a frontal shove instead of him kicking your ass and sending you flying
>>720669008the graphics filters are kind of ass.
>>720669608I said from the very beginning than using your gb cart was the whole experience, in case you want to just do some mental gymnastic about how rentals only were better, in case you lost the quote chain and you're just trying to spin anything you can for your "muh win internet argument" moment, but that's ok, I know that's what zoomers do
>>720669608it's the same trolling he does in every threadmakes every pokemon thread shit
>>720669736This is the first stadium thead I've participated, just take the L zoomie and go on with your day
>>720669786i can tell when you forgot what challenge cup waskek
>>720669721>using your gb cart was the whole experienceCitation needed. I for one liked trying out new strategies with the rentals back then.
>>720669841lmao you can try to spin up whatever you want its not my problem you're a retard zoomer who can't even keep track of a conversation
>>720669380>the decision to not have kids is purely a selfish oneOr maybe they realize introducing more kids into this dying and overpopulated world wouldn’t be such a good idea. Either that or they can’t afford to raise kids. It’s 2025 now. The days of the average joe being able to buy a house and raise a family with one full-time job are long gone.
>>720669906>Citation neededRight here >>720667441Are you lost or something?
>>720669906>NOOOOO I CANT SPAM FLAMETHROWER WITH CHARIZARD THIS SUCKS IM PLAYING EGG EMERGENCY FOR THE 500TH TIMEt. millennials
>>720664789>mon yapping their own namesI haven't watched the anime in over twenty years and I always hated Pokemon saying their own names in the anime. It felt and still feels retarded.Maybe that was the first sign of autism.
>>720669967nope, because modern women still expect men to provide everything despite that women themselves ruined wages and the job market. they don't even consider her money to be the family's money, just hers.
>>720670010Wow... so nothing interesting.
>>720641709Too bad they couldn't make the game good.
>>720670079>Not like that!kek
>>720670067>Maybe that was the first sign of autism.No, pokemon saying their own name was never a thing in any of the main series games except for pikachu. There are several anime series that are not part of the main anime where pokemon don't say their own names.
>>720643031you're right about gsc however this image hates on gen 5 too much. It was the ridiculous amount of hate that those games got that ruined the series for good. This is why nowadays you have games that slurp Gen 1s cock with barebone stories and forgettable characters. And also a shit ton of gimmicks.
>>720647413Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t that Iwata’s doing after GF said they couldn’t fit the rest of the content they wanted into it and he did some Japanese black magic coding to make it possible?>>720647941Really need to get around to playing Crystal on my 3DS but I’m gonna miss not having access to Ampharos. What do people use instead of Amphy?
>>720670194Didn't Tajiri step off during gen 2's development? I doubt the end product was fully his vision.
>>720670194>this image hates on gen 5 too muchThe image was made by yawnfag, what did you expect?
>>720670223>What do people use instead of Amphy?Rom hacks
>>720670223>What do people use instead of Amphy?They only use the starter.
>>720670074Ok but that doesn’t mean we need more kids who will just grow up with a shitty future.
>>720670031This was what most people were like in 2000. I remember going to a party as a kid and we only played the minigames.
>>720670430>wespeak for yourself. brown people will continue to shit out kids they can't afford while white people will stop. all you're doing here is advocating for more jeets.
>>7206705414 simultaneous players was better than just 2 players at at time taking turns on a "2 vs 2" battle
>>720670750>we didn't like pokemon
>>720644138but that's not the real 'you can visit kanto' moment. in fact the way to viridian is even blocked afterwards lol
>>720670750I preferred Mario Party.
>>720670810Why retard zoomers keep shitting up this thread?Are they mad they didn't get to experience multiplayer with bros back in the day?
>>720670907>filtered by a baby game
>>720670873We played all of the games, stadium, mario party, perfect dark, duke nukem zero hour, conkers bfd, mario kart, etcBut here we are talking about stadium
>>720670591To be fair, jeets are so inbred at this point that they're a non issue. They probably have the genetic diversity of a bowl of froot loops.
>>720670981>shitter cheater zoomer still mad lmao
>>720670994And never did anyone actually play Stadium.
>>720671107We did, I just say so, did you brain melt or you have bad eyesight? Be honest, we don't judge here anon
>>720671073>they're a non issuethey get into managerial positions in western companies and then only hire jeets afterwards. they are very much a problem. they think they're superior to white people, yet desperately want to be white.
>>720671190Then you admit to >>720670810?
>>720671094>filtered by a baby game
>>720671251What mental gymnastic is this? Just read >>720670994We loved and played all the games. It is THAT hard to understand or something?
>>720671368you didn't play the game retard
>>720671368Oh you think minigames were the whole game. That's cute.
>>720643031it was so good, I loved it. including the previous game's world made it feel like pokemon was going to just keep getting bigger and bigger. And the environmental storytelling of getting to see the world after time had passed was great. super underrated
>>720671458may as well be for 95% of kids back then.
>>720670194aren't they gonna remake those at some point? what's the deal there
>>720671458Zoom zoom forgot what stat exp and Challenge Cup were and cheeses the whole thing with his own team. Of course it's gonna be forgettable as fuck.
>>720671405SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU ZOOMER FAGGOT
>>720671701>browneat shit nigger
>>720670541>>720670873why the hell don't they make another pokemon minigame game like mario party anyway? that shit was so good in stadium

>>720671953>everyone who was posting the soul leavesYou and I both know it's the same person.
Gravity Rush 2.First game is set on a city built onto the side of a giant pillar in the sky. Second game is a city that flies around. About 75% into the game they fly the second city towards the first and the rest of the game takes place on the first games map mostly, fully remade. After a certain point they physically get put together and you can actually see and fly to one city from the other. It then has you climb the pillar, which you didn't do in the first game.It's fucking awesome.
>>720671753>>720671838>>720671872Keep 'em coming!>>720671965True, true
>>720671953>>/vp/ schizo finds the thread with 100 peaceful kino postsHe found the thread like five posts in
>>720671701Thanks for making me realize that most of the angry shitposting here comes from poorfags
>>720672074>poorfagsPost your rig faggot
>>720672074Brownskin still makes daily gen 2 threads and reminisces on 3rd grade days, of course he's a poorfag.
>>720641709pokemon was the first rpg i played so i thought all rpgs let you carry on playing after you beat the game and i was very disappointed when i learned that is not the case.
>>720672107I have a PC with a 4070 Super, a PS5 and a Switch 2.
>>720671701MeltyCue the shartyposting
>>720672356Sure sure you do anon, sure, I believe you
>>720672341Many such cases. Pokemon ruined RPGs for the west for years.
>>720671953this is more a 4chan wide thing, not just /vp/. Trannies organize discord raids to ruin threads that are anything other than porn dump threads or off topic threads. They can't stand when a thread is progressing normally, because they've slowly realized they will never progress at all.
>>720672049No, this was an uninterrupted soul thread for 100 posts, he was late to the party Oh well, I guess it makes it plain as day that it is just 1 schizo that has Johto derangement syndrome
>>720671953>the schizo isn't the one who made the threadMy guess is OP got banned for genwarring on /vp/ and is spamming threads here daily. The "soul" threads go post-by-post the same.
>>720672697OP was literally just asking if other games do the same thing GSC did with adding an old map as postgame content, which is a valid thread idea. In what world is that a schizo post? Did you read the OP?
>>720641709I mean really they designed like 2/3rds of a full map and padded it out with the map from the old game—which worked, but I don’t like to give KikeFreak any credit whatsoever. Anything good they did was an accident, like the OP example.
>>720672815Ah yes thinly veiled threads have never existed on 4chan before. I hope you ban on /vp/ expires soon.
>>720672697>akshully the guy posting the soul is somehow the schizo delusional

>>720673237you'll be singing the same tune when October comes along lol
Does this count?
>>720671953Yes, this is exactly why /vp/ moves at a snails pace - no-one can even discuss the classic games there anymore without being met by poketuber buzzword spam >b-b-but muh level curve!!! >b-b-but muh 2 Pokemon in the postgame >b-b-but I have no friends to trade with :'( >UNPLAYABLE It drove everyone off the board, and it's why you see so many threads praising RBY and GSC here - because it's the only place you can discuss the games in a nice normal manner (at least, until the bad actors show up). The thing you need to understand about nugen fans is they are the crabs in the bucket. Their favourite games will never be considered the peak, so they try to drag us down into their dirty bathwater. It's sad.
>>720641709we have an entire board for your furry asses
>>720673826>poketuber buzzword spamWe're doing this again?
>>720673826>will never be considered the peakBy who? Emerald, Platinum and B2W2 are all highly praised by hardcore fans.
>>720673734i'll allow it, even though it wasn't exactly secret or post-game.
>>720673826oh look the resident schizo is back!
>>720674032>Emerald, Platinum and B2W2 are all highly praised by hardcore fans.Exactly, you just said it yourself - HARDCORE fans. The ones that don't play anything other than Pokemon. Meanwhile, you come to /v/ where everyone plays a variety of video games, and what do you know? RBY and GSC top every single 'Best Pkmn Game' poll, and all the other games are disregarded. Funny how that works.
How about reusing mostly the same map?
>>720673826/thread, anyone praising Legends ZA and SV are the reason that this franchise is in the state that it's in
>>720674270Those 3 games have caught on in popularity on /v/ and everywhere else on the internet. /vr/ doesn't care for gen 2 either. No amount of samefagging or raiding will change that.
G/s/c and its remakes are everything i ever wanted in a pokemon game.
>>720643031The sad thing is I can't tell if the pokemon on the right are legit pokemon or very well made attempts at trolling. The cloud/snake guy in particular makes me think troll.
>>720674451>any result I don't like is a raid/samefag L M A O
>>720674468Why did you post Lance's rematch team and not the 3 Dragonites
>>720674482They're all real. The cloud snake thing is the 4th member of Black and White's genie trio that was introduced later. The giraffe raikou is a "paradox" pokemon that only exists because of time travel shenanigans and shouldn't actually exist in the lore of scarlet and violet.
>>720643031That’s a lot of cherrypicking.
>>720674578Because that image is all of the rematch teams?
>>720674740Smoochum is based That ugly dragon thing no-one remembers the name of is shit, stop spamming it pretending that it's good, it is fucking dogshit
>>720674740bax is ugly as fuck and one of the worst pseudos after goodra
>>720674756It's not, otherwise Blue would have Heracross. It's a Johtonigger trying to spread misinformation like usual.
>>720673826>no-one can even discuss the classic games there anymore without being met by poketuber buzzword spam>>b-b-but muh level curve!!!>>b-b-but muh 2 Pokemon in the postgame>>b-b-but I have no friends to trade with :'(>>UNPLAYABLEYeah no, these were complaints long before YouTube. The real issue are zoomers who are unable to take criticism like yawnfag for instance. Because gen 2 was the most criticised game on /vp/ while gen 5 was the one that received the most praise and he loved the former he made it his life goal to destroy any thread criticising gen 2 while also shitting in threads praising gen 5 in any way
>>720674740Baxcalibur still looks like shit and I don't care about the Godzilla reference.
>>720674925It's funny how easy it would be to fix its design. the giant single fin looks retarded. just give it two of them that look like wings, like druddigon, and put something on the back of its head so it doesn't look bald like homer simpson.
>>720674578Theyre all the rematch teams, the fact there is rematch teams is what makes hgss so fucking good to me
>>720667106Didn't know Gameboy color emulation was a thing back then but makes sense. Also how did you get the rom?
>>720675110Then why did you use Blue's HGSS sprite and team when he had a rematch team in FRLG
>>720674565>check site>rby above gscuh huh. not trusting that
>>720675307.....the image is nothing to do with FRLG?
>>720674468>>720675110I didn't have good ice STAB for it and that fucking Salamence was the hardest Pokemon in the game for me. I had to give Starmie a Choice Band for effective Ice Beam and pray for a crit and he still was a fucking terror>>720667106>>720675280Not the earlier anon but my dad got me the Silver ROM in Japanese a couple months before it released, shit was so cool. I never made it that far though.
>>720675307I'm pretty sure these are from BW2's world championship. Blue and Lance used their HGSS sprites there.
>>720675393GSC is above RBY?
>>720675280Google, there were plenty of rom pages back then, can't remember wich one, they all have a message like "delete the rom in 24 hrs" but obviously no one did that.I downloaded snes roms around 1997 or so too
>>720675440They have different teams in the PWT, like Wallace has Swampert and Cynthia has Glaceon. The pic is just misleading as fuck
>>720646362if it came out in 2025 we'd just get a sign saying "Kanto under construction" and that'd be it.
>>720674451>the 3 games I like are also the ones everyone else thinks is the best!!! delusional
>>720675497nope.
>>720675402>Choice Band>Starmie>Ice Beam
>>720675578>haha I like fun rematches >NOOOOO THAT PIC IS MISLEADING STOP ENJOYING THINGS Why are you like this?
>>720675753>I can't use Bulbapedia properlyWhy are you so retarded
>>720675307I basically used a combo of platinum, rse, hgss teams that you played in the game i didnt include the world tourney due to "technically rental" austism. Basically the teams you would see in a normal playthrough encounter
>>720662818As much as I wasn’t the biggest fan of Gen 6, the PSS system for online was a godsend. Streamlined, worked well, everyone at the time liking it. And then Gen 7 throws it all out the window because ‘every generation must be unique’.
>>720664221HGSS, pokemon following you is kino, and its the last pokemon game to have tons of actual postgame content.
>>720675695The list in the picture is the final list so maybe those are votes made after the deadline that caused it to position higher.
>>720675620keklmao
>>720664221Both. I think I prefer GSC a little more because I do like its minimalist feel and colours (could also be nostalgia as I played G on my 5th bday in 2001), but I also like what HGSS brought to the table. Fucking love Ho-Oh’s theme.
Is yawnfag still around or did he fuck off yet?
>>720675620Kanto is so ingrained in Johto's identity they just wouldn't bother with it again aside from shit like Kitakami.
>>720675696You know. It might have been the scarf to move earlier. Or if I didn't have the specs, I maybe was using the band and I did fuck up. I remember it making a difference. Uuuuuuhhh I forget it's been two years.
>>720668881rare you admit that
>>720675814>technically rentalThe normal PWT battles don't use rentals. In the Rental format, everyone uses rentals.
what would the best pokemon crystal randomizer be.
>soulfag fucks off>gen 2 fags try talking about the game>fuck up everything>they're all baby games theyre all the sameheh
>>720676501You can't battle champions in that format anyway
>>720675620I will never not be mad about this. The fact that they gave the reason in pic to not include the BF but include a bunch of new shit including references to Emerald meant they just couldn’t be assed to do it.
>>720658908what hack?
>>720677343For me it’s the lesser known “The Alolan Gym project has started!”
>>720677412It was Odyssey
>>720650735i feel like they tried harder to make them feel like actual creatures in a real ecosystem during the first few gens, although maybe im biased since thats also when i actually paid attention to all the world building in the side media
>>720677343The one thing that's unforgivable to me is not bothering to add the Factory. They know how the mechanics worked and all the Pokemon sets had to be made for the Maison. It alone gives hundreds of hours of extra playtime.All the other facilities are either Tower clones with a spin or too far out there to copy like the Pike or Pyramid.
>16 years without returning to Johto
>>720650735They've done that a few other times, but it wasn't as cool. Near the end of the gen 2 anime in one of the tournaments, someone just whips out a blaziken, though it was introduced properly instead of you just wondering what the fuck it was.
>>720677928Just play either of the two games again chucklenuts.
>>720677928East Johto is right there
>>720651536the problem with retarded takes like this is that everyone else playing the game still browses the datamine threads, which means that you're going to get to hear all about what the dataminers find anyways. there is no organic discovery anymore
>>720643031I quit at Gen 3 as a kid precisely because it cut all the cool shit GSC added. I remember being baffled that the Pokemon didn't even move, when Crystal had animations for every Pokemon.
>>720677928That's a good thing honestly, LGPE, BDSP, PLA, that shitty Unova DLC, and ZA are all lame returns to regions
>>720677928Kitakami just happened, which is basically the closest you'll ever get to Johto until they make a Legends game. (Said Legends game will take place entirely within Ilex Forest.)
>>720678151>I remember being baffled that the Pokemon didn't even move, when Crystal had animations for every Pokemon.crystal was the third version. the third version of RSE also had moving sprites, though not as detailed.
>>720677928HeartGold & SoulSilver already exist. They're not going to remake something that's already been remade, dipshit.
>>720678304Why the fuck would a basic graphical progression like the sprites moving be limited to the third version in the first place? The GBA was a huge leap over the GBC graphically, there was no fucking excuse for it.
>>720678089So you just don't use the website for a month? Is it really that hard for you to do?
>>720678151GS sprites didn't move either. What probably happened is RS's development started before Crystal's did and they saw how shit like day/night cycle murdered the cartridge battery.
>>720678393Even worse, Emerald was a total downgrade from Crystal. Crystal's sprites had multiple frames of animation, where every game between Crystal and Platinum/HGSS that DID have animations were two frames, tops. And then BW and B2W2 did that tweening shit.
>>720678393the excuse is that it's a ton of additional work for a game they likely had a timeframe to complete. I seem to recall during those leaks that there was information to suggest they were going to do actual moving sprites in ruby and sapphire but opted against it.
>>720678498>shit like day/night cycle murdered the cartridge batteryRSE have a day cycle. What it didn't have was a visual difference on the overworld. It affected things like berry growth and the tide in shoal cave, as well as what eevee will evolve into even though you can't get eevee in the game.
What is this shit
>>720678653it makes more sense if you understand the real world reason why it looks like that, although it doesn't excuse it looking for weird.
>>720678642Meanwhile when your internal battery dies in gens 1-2 your save disappears
>>720678797yeah because gameboy advanced games used flash memory for saving. The battery was only there to keep track of the time and nothing else. Most original carts of RSE probably still have a working battery.
>>720678653Sovl
>>720660381and now literally everyone knows about it, literally any conversation about it going forward is just going to be >HEY DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THE POST GAME WHERE YOU GO BACK TO HK
>>720679014silksong fags aren't as mindbroken as johturds
>>720643031I never finished Gen 5. Should I go back and do that? I haven't fully played a Pokemon game since 2014. I liked ORAS, but just sort of lost interest after my second time beating it. (RIP my old pokemon after I was an idiot and lost all my 3DS data.)Some of the Gen 5 designs have really grown on me, and the art style is really fun.
>>720679078Yet
>>720679249BW has a slow start but picks up at like the 3rd gymI liked BW2 throughout
>>720679249instead of a 3rd version, the generation has sequels, so you can't really play a "best version" like with platinum. If you care to play the sequels, keep in mind that it uses the exact same region, but you progress through it differently so it does feel a little bit different.
>>720641709Desu they need to make a Legends game that is titled Legends Indigo and comprises both the Kanto and Johto regions. We could have the actual Cinnabar island with a volcano, more fleshed out region that feels like Tokyo, and Kanto/Johto being expanded and being more of a cohesive one piece of land instead of strangely segmented off would be so good. I also think Unova legends would be good because they could center it around the original dragon, but legends Kalos didn't center around the ancient war so who knows.
>>720679963>but legends Kalos didn't center around the ancient war so who knowsit is seemingly going to center around the scrapped zygarde story as well as expand on AZ
>>720668969>and an actual story.Anon, you know very well that introducing Legendary wank is not going to be seen as a positive of Gen 3.
>>720671701i dont see stadium in the slot, huhweird...
>>720680171>main villain is retarded but achieves somethingalready better than team rocket in johturd
>>720680095On one hand I'm glad that we are essentially getting the long overdue Z story, but I still feel like in the long-run it's going to be the misfit of the Legends brand since I still feel like they're trying to give each region a backstory instead of taking place in modern times.
>>720669574The biggest challenge to having more than two regions would be level balancing.
>>720672010shame sony abandoned it, they didnt even bother making a ps4 pro patch for it so its just stuck at 720p 30fps
>>720680358I am amazed at how many people I've seen saying that "legends games are supposed to take place in the past" working with a sample size of exactly one. We have no idea exactly what the idea behind ZA is at this point. It's possible there could be segments that take place in a flashback since AZ will be a main focus here.
Johto is by far the worst region in the whole series and I have no idea how a hollowed out kanto elevates it so much in people's minds outside of nostalgia
>>720680171Oh it's seen as a positive for 3.Not 4 though given that was a full rehash of 3.
>liking nu-Pokemon (gen 3 onward)keky
>>720650735>>720658679Another thing about this was that Donphan wasn't even named until GSC came out. They left it a mystery to get kids hyped for the next gen.
>>720680393I mean if you wanted to, in scarlet and violet you could immediately run across the map and catch a gible or something if you wanted to. The level balancing was changing how the obedience mechanic works. If your gible is too high of a level to obey you, you can just breed an egg of one. I did this with a duraludon and evolved it while it was still level 1.
>>720680732There was also official merchandise that called marril pikablu.
>>720678454>another retarded takedo you not have friends
>>720680563It's because of the name in of itself, legends, which is what you get after time passes and events fade into obscurity. People assumed that you would get back stories like the burned tower, events of the old Unova dragon, and I've seen people wanting a game where you play as a young Prof. Oak with Agatha as his rival that predates the Legends brand. The legends banner doesn't really make any sense if most of them will take place in modern times since there's not really something to differentiate it from the other mainline games despite giving you another story to an established region, and new forms to Pokemon.
>>720665690>>720666052Nobody talks about this enough but I miss when the character designs were more simple like these. Had a style and charm of its own that you could tell clearly belonged to Pokemon.Seems like somewhere along they just started trying to make everyone look like JoJo rejects.
>>720680215
POKEMON CORAL WHEN
>>720681418huh thats weird i still dont see stadium in the slot... you arent *emulating*... are you?
>>720681418>pokemon stadium 1jej
>>720647413For a long time I've wanted to make a game that seems like a really basic walking/survival sim on an island, but through a series of actions that are highly unlikely to happen accidentally and which cannot be logically deduced (i.e., people just have to stumble upon it), it's revealed that an entire zelda-like game world is hidden underground.But the only way to do it would be to hide it as something that doesn't get downloaded until the conditions are met, and I can't do network shit.
>>720681418Shitskin couldn't even load the correct ROM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezmGVPOaz_U
>>720681515>>720681534>>720681648Mmm more tears, exquisite
>>720671073Eventually becoming surrounded by a bunch of inbred shit-eaters is the opposite of a non issue, actually.
>>720681418So we've confirmed in this adventure of a thread that Johtofags are brown, poor, and illiterate.
>>720681969Delicious
>>720641709Why do jewtubers hate on Johto so much nowadays? They even hate on the remakes too.
>>720682546they are zoomers who grew up with ds and wii like the scott the poz
>>720680870Yes but my friends aren't dataminers and don't browse /v/ all day like you do
>>720682546>>720682608You're just playing the victim at this point.
>>720681117it's telling a new story about a place you already know. that's really all the justification you need for the name.
>>720681394they're designing them so that their type specialty is obvious. none of the kanto gym leader's designs would clue you in on what their type is except for misty.
>>720681590>But the only way to do it would be to hide it as something that doesn't get downloaded until the conditions are met, and I can't do network shit.you'd be hiding it from exactly one person, because once it was discovered, it would immediately be all over the internet. I remember when Edmund Mc Melvin tried to do an ARG to unlock the lost but it was discovered very quickly so they just made a non-cryptic way to unlock him.
>>720643031Ok but RSE was still soul tier. Emerald especially.
>>720681969>brown, poor, and illiteratewhy did you say the same thing three times?
>>720683303>Erika>Sabrina>KogaGTFO of here.And there's nothing wrong with letting gym leaders look like relatively normal people rather that hyperautists about their specific type.
>>720683689erika is a kimono girl. how does that say grass?sabrina is holding a whip in the first games, not levitating a pokeball.koga is a ninja. just as well, every single person in his gym uses psychic pokemon except for him.
>>720681418Embarrassing>>720681394Nobody cared about the humans until gen 5
>>720681590For the sake of preserving content I wish there was a perfect offline solution to protecting secrets from datamines, but on the other hand wi-fi and live-service games are so prevalent today that I'm torn on whether it's worth pursuing.
>>720684048>Nobody cared about the humans until gen 5Found the eunuch.
>>720684183Sorry your irrelevant waifu got no porn in 2004 :(
>>720683824Kimonos are typically associated with flowers and her gym is a garden. Her type is conveyed just fine.>ninjaObviously would imply poison use.I did forget about Sabrina using a whip though, I'll give you that.My original point still stands, however.
>>720684048
>>720684247Sorry you're either a 70 IQ faggot or a bot :(
>>720684098people can even datamine content from games that hasn't been added yet. when Crash Team Racing NF was still ongoing, people were able to find files for the upcoming characters until peenox got wise and started giving the files misleading names to troll people.
>>720684278I was talking about the characters themselves, not what their gyms look like. there's a sign out front of each gym that tells you who you're facing anyway.
>>720684362It's 2025, you can commission porn of any literal who you want.
>>720684048true
>>720684561Doesn't change the fact that you're a non-sequitur spewing bot.
>>720684561>2025>Talking about commission instead or ai genningbruh
>>720684483There were always other factors that gave context about a gym's typing so it's fine that they look relatively normal instead of a bunch of catwalk freaks.Even their names were enough.
>>720684623AIslop doesn't do it for me.>>720684673Koga is probably the worst example of that.
>>720684743You *are* AIslop, bot-kun.
>>720684743Still, ninjas are associated with poison so it's fine.
>>720684743>can't get good ai sloppaskill issue
>>720684847>still mad his waifu no one cares about got no porngive it a rest
>>720684923Nigger, the most popular pokegirls are Misty, May, and Dawn in that order. Go to any booru and count the number of pics, and this will be true. You are either deeply in denial or a retarded fucking bot.
>>720648373Gen 5.
>>720684048>Nobody cared about the humans until gen 5Spoken like a true furfag.
>>720684994see >>720684569
>>720648373Gen 6.
>>720685138This doesn't prove anything about pokegirls, because that accounts for furry/bestiality shit.
>>720641709>we've included the mapThis was the problem - they put in the map, but forgot to add gameplay to it.
>>720685236Pretty sure the left side is only for humans. You don't see the inverse relationship?
>>720644612before the thread is done, what are the best gen 2 romhacks? or best romhacks that use the gen 2 games as base?
>>720684569>Gen 9 is the only one with more human art than Pokemon artJesus fucking christ, what a flop of a dex. I bet most of its that Grass cat too
>>720685361>pretty sureYou don't know shit.
>>720684569These numbers don't strictly mean Pokémon by themselves, you fail to account for art featuring Pokémon in the background or humans involved with Pokemon. Taggers get autistic.
>>720642294The only reason Rayman Origins' levels were included in Legends is because Legends was rushed and only had half as many new levels as Origins so they padded it with "remastered" Origins levels
>>720685405Retard
>>720685479Dipshit.
>>720685346are you saying you didn't like walking down route 1 and finding level 3 pidgeys with your level 60 pokemon?
>>720685361apparently not
>>720671492>And the environmental storytelling of getting to see the world after time had passed was great.yeeas a kid, shit was changing all the time. seeing new buildings in kanto reflected that. now i'm a shitty stagnant adult. maybe it's just shitty stagnant adulthood making people say "gen 2 was DUM for doin kanto"
>>720685654Kill yourself, you pathetic brown attention whore.
>>720685781is gel the superior booru?
>>720685819I guess. Compared to what?
>>720685781now check the gym leaders and everyone else lol
>>720672409poorfag
>>720685862danbooru and xbooru
>>720685878No, you dumb brown faggot. Marnie is by far the most popular nu-pokegirl, and she pails in comparison. Suck-start a shotgun, retard.
>>720685949>the new character doesn't have as much art as a character from nearly 30 years agowaow
>>720685949>if i move the goalposts i'm right!kek
>>720686017>Nobody cared about the humans until gen 5You are brown and owned by kikes.
>>720672409People can get jobs y'know... It's not that hard to do.
>>720685949I checked for you.>Erika 1k>Sabrina 2k>Nessa 5k>Bea 4k>Leon 3k>Raihan 3k
>>720643031Should be updated for scarlet and violet.
>>720686305Uh, thanks for improving my argument.
>>720686370Your argument was not relevant to the original claim. "Top Pokegirl" doesn't represent the whole gen, no matter how much you want to twist it.Your concession is accepted.
>>720686527Your argument was that no one cared about pokegirls prior to Gen V. You're simply wrong. And your pigheaded desire to evade being wrong proves that you're brown. Post your hand.
WASN'T THERE JUST A THREAD YESTERDAY SAYING GEN 2 WAS SHITSTOP CHANGING YOUR MINDS
>>720686646the thread will progress differently depending on what time of day it is and what color of people are typically awake
>>720686610Is one Pokegirl representative of all humans in a gen? No>>720686646If /vp/ doesn't find it the soulfag will keep samefagging as he was doing earlier. If they do it'll reach bump limit
>>720686848Are pokegirls prior to Gen V less popular? No. Kill yourself if you're even human.
>>720686646Shitskin-kun and retards like >>720686610do a great job at keeping the thread alive. Johto troons are on another level of mental illness.
>>720687006You're not "trolling" when you're trying to push a narrative, you obnoxious kike. Say the opposite of reality, and get corrected. Just like Israel killed Charlie Kirk.
>>720685367anyone?
>>720687182Play Russian Roullette With A Full Barrel. That's my favorite Pokemon romhack.
>>720687145No one says "gen 3 humans are popular" because May is in it. Get over yourself>>720687182Polished Crystal
>>720667515Gen 2 pushed the hardware and a few things needed to take a hit to fit everything in. Everything after that didn't push the hardware and got worse anyway.
>>720686646It’s still dogshit
>>720677343>>720677518>The Kalos League has 16 gyms!>(in lore)
>>720687253Gens 1-4 have the benefit of time and remakes and they still lose out. Gen 2 fags are loud about Whitney and Clair or w/e here but it's a vocal minority.
>>720671953>>720673826Unironically it's the Sharty that ruined /vp/. They have a whole trolling /vp/ guide on their wiki. They come to /vp/ and make threads in broken English with all kinds of ragebait. Schizos in general aren't policed very well over there.
>>720687519There are a lot of (((groups))) attacking this website for sure.
>>720687519>ShartyLast time I saw them they shat on Unova.
>>720678753It is a sorta funny gimmick but making 4 ugly fossil mix ups was a mistake.
>>720686646Here was the last thread >>720528016>Why yes, I am the best Pokemon game by far. How could you tell?Same shit
>>720687693at least Dracovish is an actual menace. The other three are entirely useless.
>>720689054Aren't the vast majority of pokemon? Hell I can't think of any other fossilmon worth a damn.
>>720641709It's pretty clear you wanted a nostalgia thread. Go to >>>/vr/ and you won't have to deal with gameplayfags.
>>720641709adds the old map rips the soul outta itenjoy playing a hollow husk beat you enjoy mgsv you sound like that type
>>720689468no he wanted to genwar but /vp/ banned him
>>720665868yeah cause they ripped everything out the map apart from shitty underlv gym fights
>>720689443Aerodactyl has always been pretty good.
