    This is going to come out a bit blunt, but this is old news. Sure, there might be some people who haven't noticed, but I'm sure a lot of people already have. :\ Anyway, normally I catch them in the order: Zapdos, Articuno, Moltres. :P Nevermind, a lot of people actually didn't recognise it, so I'm wrong. xD Sorry. :S

    I guess it's sort of similar in how the names of the Pokemon Eevee and Ho-oh are both palindromes.
    Don't forget Girafarig, which actually makes sense since it's got two heads. :P

    The encounters in R/B/Y are more or less set up so you "find" them in order, though Surfing to the Power Plant for some electricity before heading out to Seafoam seems like a better idea.

    Regardless, Articuno would probably be the most immediately attractive to someone coming across it with a low-level team, since it starts off with a solid Ice attack instead of weak/inaccurate attacks like Thundershock/Thunder/Fire Spin that you probably have on some of your Pokemon already.
    Zapdos is nice, if you haven't used up your Thunderbolt yet. It's also the only one whose Ice weakness isn't covered by the other element.
    I do usually catch Moltres last, if at all, 'cuz it has a pretty unfortunate movepool. :P

    There are many things like this in Pokemon. Has anyone seen that in GSC, Whitney's gym is in the shape of a giant Clefairy?

    I'd noticed. :P
    Someone must've messed with the link cable or something during the trade though, 'cuz Mewtwo is one messed-up Mew clone. o_o

    For some raisin*, playful sarcasim doesn't transfer well to alot of people online. :(

    Also, little known fact: The three beasts from Johto are all zombies









    *This is intentional for my own amusement

    to be fair, this news is really old... althoigh my order is Zapdos, Moltres and maybe articuno, but this was back in RB days,itt went to Zapdos, Articuno Moltres when FRLG came out. for some reason, i didnt like articuno at all, but i liked Zapdos the most, even to this day, even though it's probably the worst of them for competitive play (pfft, as if I play competitively)...
