  • I noticed there was not a thread like this in this forum (Not PC, the metal/color gen forum of PC.).

    So, I'm creating one.
    Anyways, I remember having gold as my very first pokemon game...
    It was a lot of fun. Probably my favorite ever.

    I can still remember when I beat the E4 just using Feraligator.

    So, my question to you is:
    Have you ever had such a wonderful memory while playing the older games when you were younger?

    Most definitely! I remember beating red, the E4 and everyone else with a Lv.84 Chikorita! I miss those games. Gold was my first too and it's internal batt. died. :[ So now I'm stuck playing the dumb Pearl games. Too many competitive battling obsessors playing now!
    I miss my Chikorita :'[

  • Yeah, I miss my Feraligatr.
    Fortunately, I bought a new Gold. So, I might just get to relive those days.
    Although, if you want to relive Gold/Silver, there's always zel's ShinyGold!.
    If only those Gold/Silver Cartridges still lived...

    I remember the time I epically restarted my Pokemon Red to get strength early and move the truck to get Mew, which never worked. I saw the truck, but I never got the Mew..

    I remember having acquired all 151 Pokemon and then when doing some glitch losing my entire save and just collapsing in misery and vomit.

    That sounds... gruesome.

    There's always the Mew Trick. :D


    Gold was definitely my favorite, and I was quite sad when the cartridge ended up breaking. The only one I've ever completed a Pokedex in is Red. My last Poke was a Flareon from a friend.

  • I don't think I've ever completed a pokedex, so, Bravo! :D

    I don't like it either when a cartridge breaks/refuses to works.
    Anyways, I just remembered something else!
    I was playing Gold and I was in the 8th gym.
    Anyways, I pushed a rock down of of the holes, and when I saw it in the magma, I was afraid to cross over it! (If you've ever played Mario 64/Galaxy, and you know what happens when you try to step in lava? That's what made me scared of crossing the rock! :D

  • I still have my original Crystal. Although, I didn't like it as much as G/S.
    But, I guess since I'm not really the battling type (more of the explorer type.), I don't really care about the Battle Tower.
    Being able to be a girl was ok. (Since I'm a boy, it doesn't really affect me that much.)
    Overall, I thought Crystal was Pretty good, although, I wanted to see more changes. (maybe a new gym leader, and More to do in Kanto! :P)

  • Haha! I Love the Missingno. Glitch! I guess the old 'M' still lives... O.O

    Anyways, I bought a Red off of eBay a while ago, still love it! :D
    I can't wait to do all the Glitches! So much fun!
    The Glitches is the reason I bought the game!
    Anyways, have any of you ever heard of "Pikablu"?

  • I remember using mystery gift function through the little sensor things on the GBC.

    Also, when blue/red first came out and my sister went to get it. We thought Marowak was the main villain.

    My friend who plays Silver doesn't know about the internal battery... Every day I come to these forums I say, "I better tell him"... and then I forget. Lol.

  • I was just recently playing Pokemon Crystal. I've owned my copy since 2001 and, amazingly, it still saves my game. My copy of Gold is even older, and it still saves as well (as far as I know - I lent it to someone a few weeks ago). That game brings back so many memories. I love playing in good old school Johto.

    Not to say I'm not having battery troubles, though. At the moment, I seem to have misplaced the charger for my GBA SP, preventing me from charging the system and playing my games. Groan...

  • I remember getting BLUE when it first came out, I was 18. I had to replace it after dropping my GB Pocket and making the battery come loose. I still have my replacement game and a RED game, Gold and Sliver(had to replace the battery in both though).
