FRLG is the perfect remake of the best Pokemon adventure of all time (the original RGB one), making FRLG the best Pokemon game of all time.It's not the longest game, not the most content heavy game, but still the coolest and most exciting game of the franchise. Nothing beats being Red and exploring Kanto and the Sevii Islands with your Charizard. That's just the peak Pokemon experience.FRLG is also the most NEEDED remake, considering how glitchy and technically broken the original RGB were.
>>59343060Except HGSS mogs the shit out of FRLG.
>>59343060It's pretty bad. Tons of rom hacks make it look and feel like trash by comparison. I still love it, but I'm not blind to its failures.Then again, I'm also the kind of guy who thinks Conquest and the GBA & N64 puzzle games are the best pokemon titles. So take my garbage opinions with a grain of salt.
>>59343060>ow glitchy and technically brokenYou almost never encounter any glitch on a normal playthrough and if you play competitively you would be using Stadium wich fixes those bugs.
>>59343104>and if you play competitively you would be using StadiumHard disagree here. Stadium and rby have wildly different core mechanics. They're basically different games.
>>59343111>Stadium and rby have wildly different core mechanicsU wut m8?
>>59343060HahahahahaHahahhahhahaahHahahaha
>>59343116Stadium has team preview. This is a foundational change to how the game is playedCrit formula is changed leading to wide scale changes at every level of the gameHyper beam is changed to cause a recharge on ko, which fundamentally changes how the game is ranThe way stat changes are applied in stadium warps ubersWrap as a strategy is basically dead with how switches work in stadiumSleep turns are cut in half in stadiumYou can no longer do counter shenanigans, which is a huge hit for a lot of strategies
>>59343130Well no fucking shit, that's what I meant that bugs are fixed on stadium, all those are fixes and that's why stadium was used as the base for any official tournament.
>>59343134>All of those are fixesProof?
>>59343134I think we're talking over each other. All I'm saying is rby competitive is an entirely different game from n64 stadium, and that everyone wouldn't necessarily pick stadium over rby. I'm not the guy you were originally talking to. Just some autist who really enjoys playing gen 1 competitive with friends decades later.
>>59343144Yes, its different because original games had bugs like abusing hyper-beam ko, those bugs were fixed on pokemon stadium and every pokemon tournament back on the day was ran on stadium. I'm making a point on retards like OP who complain about "glitches" on generation 1 when those were fixed on stadium.
>>59343153I agree. The whole gen 1 being a buggy mess is really overhyped. Like you said, a normal playthrough won't encounter anything noticeable or game breaking. I want to blame content creators who make 30 minute rant videos as they narrate the wiki page on gen 1 bugs and glitches
>>59343060I’m not gonna pretend HG/SS doesn’t exist.
>>59343062>>59343209Overall HGSS is amazing as well. Sadly, a lot of its best features are poorly implemented. Too many things are locked behind daily and weekly events. Collecting gym leaders'd numbers to rematch them, for example. Or the Bug Catching contest being only 3 days a week. And then there's stuff like the PokeAthlon which is basically an invitation to fuck up your touchscreen. Not to mention that the whole game feels slow because of the Gen 4 engine.All of that said, I will agree that HGSS is still an amazing game, and the only real competition for FRLG as the best Pokemon game of all time.
>>59343088>So take my garbage opinions with a grain of salt.Taken
>>59343060I mean your post just sounds like nostalgia gushing, which is fine, I also gush about FRLG but come on, making a whole thread just for it is inviting people to dunk on you.
>>59343062and ORAS mogs the shit out of HGSSand all of the remakes are mogged by the originals
>>59343327Excellently crafted post my friend, this will keep the fire of anger in this thread going for 200+ posts.
>>59343327>and all of the remakes are mogged by the originals
>>59343060LMAO
>>59343271Things should be gated behind time and random events and everything else because it makes the world feel real and alive and makes it feel like an adventure and a place to disappear in not just a game to play kinda like animal crossingI hope they remake hgss desu
>>59344054I understand what you mean but it's just not practical.
>>59343321People with a good taste will not dunk on someone who likes FRLG
>>59344054It works when the game is new, but it's a drag when you go to replay it a decade later.
>>59344112Exactly this.
>>59343088>rom h*cksStopped reading right there.
>>59343060Why not GrassGreen? because ass is in it? Do they regret calling it Grass and not Leaf?
>>59344349LeafGreen just sounds better

>>59343060Nah famicom, Yellow is the best Kanto game. It fixes the teams of the gym leaders, allows you to get all the starters (a feature that should have been in ALL 3rd versions), and has Blue instead of gay trace as a rival.Yellow is POG.
>>59343271There are no bug catching contests or gym leader rematches at all in FR/LG Waiting to rematch a gym leader through the week before your 16 man gauntlet is better than absolutely nothing.Everything you touch on regarding HG/SS is an admission to how empty FR/LG is by comparison. There is nothing wrong with weekly events.Both are good but HG/SS clears HARD.
>>59344422>no. anon, you could have just said they look dated, why did you feel the need to make things up?Okay, let's just say RGBY look very dated in comparison to FRLG. On the other hand, FRLG looks amazing even today.But I'm glad you agree with my other 3 points, anon! FRLG is top tier indeed.
>>59344493I disagree.FRLG has other cool features that HGSS lacks. For example, FRLG has the amazing VS Seeker, while HGSS's equivalent are the shitty and once again unreliable PokeGear rematches (having to wait for a phone call sucks).FRLG also has the Trainer Tower with its 4 different modes, a more exciting Safari Zone (the HGSS Safari Zone is a joke), etc.I also already admitted that HGSS has more content *overall*, which doesn't mean that HGSS has the *better* content overall.
>>59343327Tried replaying ORAS recently, my fucking god, what a slofest and it looks fugly as shit, went back and started Emerald instead, the ONLY cool thing ORAS added is that one lower screen function that shows every possible pokémon that appears on the route you're exploring, super helpful, otherwise, it's a "remake" with awful FPS and loading times in places where the original had none.
>>59344422No, I'd say the way the 1st gen games look are actually why I come back to them, it's the way they play that feels dated, mostly things like broken game mechanics, awful balance and how slow paced some things are like managing boxes, items and a very lackluster post-game compared to gens 2 and 3. I still like them and taking my in-game team to play Stadium 1 is still KINO.
>>59344112The daily events are fine unless you want to blast through everything in one sitting. t. playing Soul Silver right now Even then you can use time manipulation exploits to get through. >>59345046You don't wait for the NPCs to call you, you call the NPCS at the appropriate time after the Radio Tower take over. The Safari Zone is also fine all the Pokemon that you'd want to use for your in game playthrough are obtainable in it after the tutorial. The ridiculous wait time for Pokemon to appear isn't until the post game.
>>59345126>you call the NPCS at the appropriate time after the Radio Tower take overthere's no way to know when to call NPCs without trial and error or a guide>after the tutorialthe tutorial that involves waiting 3 in-game hoursHGSS gets undue credit for having a lot of content, most of it is poorly implemented
Both FRLG and HGSS are amazing games.
>>59343060>no cross-gen evos>no physical/special splitNo.
>>59345937>>no cross-gen evosNitpick>>no physical/special splitNitpick
>>59345980it's game breaking to me. i never played it because of this. i feel like the thing with the types and physical/special attacks would make me enraged and confused since i am used to the new way
>>59345987I hope you can recover from your brain damage.
>>59346010I also don’t like that there was no water blue. I always wanna keep going and say fire red leaf green water blue but I have to stop early
>>59345072>NOOOO WHY DOES THIS REMAKE RESEMBLE THE ORIGINAL WITH EXTRA FEATURES??!!!Retard
>>59346145Who cares about Water Blue, when LeafGreen exists?LeafGreen power!
Sevii Islands chads... we going home
>>59346807Best region in Pokemon, by far
>>59346807Four Island is the best in my opinion
>>59343062HGSS is really good but still has the downside of being based on Gen 2.
>>59347749HGSS is one of my favorite Pokemon games, but I also think it's overrated, because of the weird implementation of a lot of its features. I also think the art direction is pretty, but it kinda ruined Johto's mysterious vibe, in my opinion.
