every time I hear someone talk highly of gamefreak's work in the original rgby games I feel like I've been smacked in the face. They got so, SO fucking lucky, and they've proven how undeserved that success was for almost 3 decades now.

wow, that was easy to fix. Surely this small change will be utilized instead of completely ruining it in favor of min-maxing powercreep ha ha

I'm so glad they changed this. The new Move category classification from gen 4 made much more sense and is way better.

Fire is a physical phenomena

What were they cooking

>>58191777
Do people even cared about Banette back then? It was already a shitmon back in RSE. Sure it may have lost Shadow Ball for the weaker Shadow Claw, which made it even more irredeemable (aside from suicide lead roles), but a lot of pokemon benefited from this, like Dark types which were mostly physical.
Banette's case really feels like just another case of Game Freak's neglect (even with the Mega, which is among the worst ones).

Doesn't matter, he looks the coolest

Dragon just had Dragon Rage originally, then breath and wind moves in gen 2.

Guys, you don't understand. I'm a drooling retard. I NEED my STAB to use my STRONGEST attacking stat. What kind of moves will I use otherwise?
>>
>>58191399
The split was great, it helped a lot of Pokemon who needed it
>>
>>58191773
So is water and ice, you turbo retard.
>>
>>58191399
the physical special split was the best thing to ever happen to the games.
>>
>>58191537
Move Dark to physical and keep Fire as special.
>>
>>58191444
Can you play some videogames at some point? RBY is not the only janky old rpg out there, no one minded stuff like the movesets.
>>
>>58193291
Shallow movepools weren't really a complaint before we got spoiled in later gens where everything learns a million coverage moves via level-up.
>>
>>58191537
you don’t know what powercreep is
>>
>>58193291
did you know that the pokemon in the gba games are in the background spritesheet, and everything is in the window layer? It skips sprites except for specifically, if I recall, the HP. If they had not been absolute fucking retards the GB games could have had background and animated sprites.
>>
>>58193458
>If they had not been absolute fucking retards the GB games could have had background
Only if they went without back pics.
>>
>>58193472
Explain, because I can't see why that would be true.

Everything involving the ghost type in gen 1 was such a clusterfuck
Makes me wonder how gamefreak staff get themselves dressed in the morning

The battle scene uses all tiles, sprites are reserved for attacks. The pics are all stored as square bitmaps, so it would be near impossible to make a battle backgrounds that don't overlap these pictures, because each Pokemon take up a different amount of tiles and the white space is not consistent on each one.

Actually, it would be possible. I had it in my mind that this hack only used front pics.
But the palettes are rather limited, and it probably wouldn't look as good in color.
It also sacrifices some information like names.

only for campaignshitters

Literally the only issue with this was that ghost and dark should have been swapped.
>>
>>58191399
>Ghost
>Physical
For what fucking reason?
>>
>>58194572
The only ghost type move in gen 1 was lick
the actual weird one is dark type being special despite every single dark type move in gens 1-3 being not only physical in later gens, but contact in the gens where they weren't.
>>
>>58193489
I completely think Ghost type was a literal last minute addition so they could fill lavender tower with ghosts and Genger happened to be the easiest existing pokemon at that point in development to retrofit into a ghost type. (I feel the same about dragon type too)

They probably didn't want both new types to be physical, and physical was already the majority.
Early on, it was the complete inverse of Ghost. Even down to being weak to Normal.
>>
>>58194741
normal hitting dark super effectively would have been peak

>>58192061
You're the one complaining about fire not being special

A part of why Fire was such a shit typing was because almost every Fire type was built to be physical. Without gimmicks or bloated BST, the only properly designed Fire-types were Moltres and Houndoom
>>
>>58194572
I think Ghost was suppossd to exploit the weakness of Psychic types by targeting the Defense stat rather than the Special (and later, Special Defense, stat)
