4th Gen What Might You Do Differently?

[Guy]

Coming to think about it, I actually got lost when I played through my Silver version. The basic reason is because Ruby was my first game and to go back in step and play through the older graphics I think is what got me lost in the Johto region at first. However, now that I'm on track I've promised myself that I won't make the same mistake I did before and get lost.

Not to mention, I'm going to try and not rush through the game like I might have done before. I guess it was laziness that caught struck of me to fly through the game with just my starter. Though, this time around I'm taking charge and playing through the game at a steady pace, and taking my time along with it while I bring out the best of the game for me. So, these are probably the two biggest mistakes I did before that I want to change this time around compared to what I might have said before.

I won't rush to beat the game in competition with my siblings. We always have a competition to see who will beat the game first. Then I beat the game and regret not getting the good Pokemon (Garchomp/Lucario). I won't rush this time. I'll take my time and enjoy it like I did with the original Gold version.

 

[Intensity]

I just got Gold a few months ago and I'm going to overtrain my Pokemon, take my time, and have fun like I did on the other games so I'll probably not be doing anything differently. I may get new Pokemon, but nothing else besides that.

 

[JustinDestruction]

I will be getting both, but I will, as then, play through Silver as my main one. I will probably also pick Totodile, because that was my original choice. Aside from that though, most things will be different. Back then I didn't really know what I was doing. This time around I have a team planned that I will be using throughout the game.

 

[CrazyCubone]

What will I do differently? I'll probably buy it this time. xD I used to rent Gold from the video shop, but whenever I went and got it again someone had restarted it.

you wont be able to have any Sinnoh Pokemon at the start of the game >>

lol, i didn't say at the start lol
i said i'll send an egg in as early as i can, meaning i'll trade a riolu egg from my pearl/diamond/platinum to HG/SS, which should be possible:D

 

[Rokusasu]

I'm going to deposit my starter into a PC ASAP, so I don't end up having a lvl 60 and a bunch of lvl 30s when facing the E4, and also to give me a bit more choice in Pokemon. I'm also going to try and avoid using an Eevee evo in my in-game team, because I always end up with either Espeon or Umbreon whenever I play a Gen II game. :3

 

[angelsavoir]

I always traded in higher level pokemon to my silver from my friends games so I could beat the elite 4! But defiantly not going to do that anymore.

 

[Kerjo]

I'm going to take things slower and explore everything. I'm also going to catch every possible pokemon before the E4 and evolve them. I might even breed my pokemon for helpful natures for both battling and contests, that is if contests are included.

 

[Unknown Entity]

I've probably beaten Silver and Crystal a different way each time I've played them, so I'll probably be playing these ones differently as well, though like in Silver and Crystal I will most likely be choosing Cyndaquil as my starter and getting my Nidoking later on for sure, other then that, I'll be doing everything else differently.

Finally decided on my team:
Typhlosion
Xatu
Crobat
Ampharos
Scizor
Miltank

HM Slaves will probably be Gyarados and Tropius or Pidgeot/Pidgeotto

 

[Timbjerr]

for ingame? not much, just give my Typhlosion, Crobat, and other pokemon proper moves instead of making them all monotype STAB attackers.

 

[PsychoJigglypuff]

I'm defenitely not going to kill the only shiny I have ever found in a Pokemon game... Poor little Shiny Geodude...
