  • Well....that wrapped up quickly. XD

    Sure did.

    I sure hate when people say stuff like that, trying to make other people waste their time, or maybe they have fallen for a trick themselves :/ The best pokemon you'll find in the viridian forest is (sadly) a caterpie. lol

    there IS a black charizard, but you don't get it the way you posted. the black charizard is a shiny charizard, where the change to get a shiny is 1/8192. to obtain a shiny charizard, you must either keep soft-reseting at the start of the game where you obtain your starter, till you have a shiny starter, or breed thousands charmanders till one is shiny. the"myth" you posted is false, there's no such myth/cheat that excite.

    I disagree, the best Pokemon you can find in Viridian forest would probably be Pikachu.

  • If that myth was true, then everybody would have a shiny Charizard. Seriously, 40 hours of gameplay goes by pretty fast.

    Why do I have a feeling in my gut this fella posted this as a trap? He's either one of two things:
    1) A gullible child who was told this by some mean-spirited person.
    2) A mean-spirited person who is trying to trick gullible children for the lulz.

    And given how ridiculous the "myth" is, I'm leaning to #2.

    Lolz.

    No way, jose! Otherwise Shiny Charizards wouldn't be so rare! D:

    You've been tricked! You much react by cracking an egg on the offenders head oxo.

    It was an exageration...and for the record, pikachu isn't very good itself.
    I was kind of guessing you were exaggerating, but I was just saying that Pikachu is a whol lote better than caterpie... Then again, caterpie evolves fast and when it turns into a butterfree, It is a pretty good pokemon, with the physic moves and whatnot
