Fave moment in GSC: Catchinga L70 Ho-Oh with A POKEBALL!!!!
Least Favorite: Accidentally RELEASING the same Ho-Oh by attempting the cloning glitch *facepalm due to epic fail* |
Favorite: Being able to get all the pokemon you need to trade to evolve. My summer camp was basically gameboy camp.
Worst: Having to clone a pokemon every time i wanted another rare candy. |
RBY:
- I could not find Surf in the Safari Zone, so I was stuck in Fuchsia and pumped my team to level 70 until my neighbor helped me find Surf - Used Missingno in the Elite Four... Strange things happened - Looked for Mew under the truck - Tried to evolve Dratini into Yoshi - Always looked for a Pikachu in the southwestern most patch of grass in Viridian Forest - Thought Mimic and Hyper Beam were the coolest moves ever and anything that could know them knew them - Never battled any of Sabrina's trainers - Never used Flash in the Rock Tunnel cave from Cerulean to Lavender - Named a Jigglypuff Britney (Spears) - Played my GameGIRL in the dark... ekeke - Whited out by a Weedle (I got poisoned) GSC: - Was afraid of the Ruins of Alph secret radio station! - Used a rare candy at level 99 on my starter, Typhlosion, the only Pokemon I raised up to 99 only to blow it :/ - Encountered a shiny Grimer, whittled its health to yellow, prepared to catch it ONLY TO HAVE IT FLEE... WHAT POKEMON FLEES BESIDES SAFARI POKEMONFFFFF - Got lost in the Whirl Islands for days - Owned by Whitney and her Miltank's Rollout many, many, many times - Freaked out when I found Smeargle too, lol - Wrote down every answer to Buena's radio show for 1 whole year (I still have this notebook, lol) - Used Rock Smash in attempt to find any Pokemon but never did - Visited the Miltank at the farm everyday for quite a while - Tried to get the GS Ball and did not understand that I lacked having the mobile adapter, or a Japanese game Both: - Retarded nicknames for every Pokemon! Go Beachball, the Blastoise! Nostalgia is fun. |
There's To many Memories to list, But i will list a few.
Back then, Your friends would do anything for you, So my Mom was in the Hospital because of her bad back, Now i was only 5 At the time, So i wasn't a master of PokeMon or anything, but I remember how back then, you didn't care how balanced your team was, Just as long as it had 2 Good Poke's and all the rest Level 4 Pokemon. But, that's not what happened for me, oh no. Instead, i had 4 Good Pokemon. Yeah, and By far one of them Was my Togetic, I am almost 100% sure it was between levels 68-87, And it was mine, so godly. So guess what, My mom was in the Hospital for 2 Months, therefore, I had my Friends Pokemon Gold for 2 Months, And i played it NON Stop! I would play it in the chair next to my Moms bed and talk while leveling up my Typhlosion, Man, those where the days.. But now, its not like that, You just can't have stuff like that anymore.. I miss the ol' days. |
The Geodude/Fonzi thing ttly made me lol. XD
|
Silver was my very first pokemon game. I was only five or six when I bought it and I couldn't read crap, so I had no idea what I was doing.
Some of the stuff I did was really stupid. - I named my starter Totodile "Squt". It was supposed to be "Squirt" but five year olds are not the best spellers in the world. - I didn't understand levels at all. I lost many important fights trying to battle with freshly caught level 10-20s. - I used my master ball as soon as I got it on the first wild pokemon I saw because I didn't get what was so special about it. If I remember correctly, I put the pokemon I caught in a PC box and forgot about it. - That secret radio station scared the living crap out of me o.o - I named my rival and a few of my pokemon things like "GJHISIJFKDVMIO" A few years later I started the game over because I didn't like my starter pokemon. I could read considerably better, but I still didn't understand some of the stuff. I named my rival "Rival" because right above the entry field it says "Rival's name" and I thought that it was supposed to be his name... |
Hey, lolz I remember wasting my masterball in Gold on an Ursurang, Cuz I had never seen it before ad thought OMG A RARE POKEMON. It pissed me off once I knew what it really was lol
|
Greatest memory would have to be freaking out when I realized that Ho-oh was that pokemon in the first episode. Nobody new what it was until GSC came out. Let the good times roll...
|
ah fond memories i gotta say i got pissed losing to gary so many times it was happening so much i left the game for a while i threw darts at a pic of gary and guess what the exact time i played Red i beat him
|
Silver Version: I didn't know how to save.. Ah, that was hilarious. Naming Silver "???", using the Masterball on a Skarmory, because I thought it was shiny (the wings weren't red).
EDIT: And I ended up naming my Pidgey "-tvw" because I just picked random letters and characters without looking. It turned out to be a part of my awesome team. Blue Version: Picking Squirtle because I thought I had to. Evolving Eevee into Vaporeon, thinking I could then evolve that into Flareon, then Jolteon (XD). Evolving my Pikachu at level 3, only to figure out that its best move would be Thundershock. XP |
When I first caught a Dratini and evolved it fully into a Dragonite and I beat the league with it! lol xD
|
R/B: Encountering (and catching) MissingNo. I used it so long that the graphics in the game went back to normal (except my Hall of Fame). MissingNo. was my main Pokemon for a while. Heck, I even had a whole team of them and named them after the so-called PokeGods (Houou, Yoshi, Rainer, Charcolt, and so on). Their Defense sucked, though. Couldn't even beat the Fighting Dojo with them. But those were good days. I might give it a go on my newest save file.
G: Using the Mew Trick to get that hideous-looking Mew. lol Y: Finally getting a Surfing Pikachu and playing the Pikachu's Beach mini game. That was pretty cool. However, I eventually gave it to my cousin. G/S: Evolving my Eevee into Umbreon. It took ages, but I love that little thing. Also catching my first non-default shiny, Golbat. ;3 C: Catching a shiny Koffing. I hadn't even been playing it for 24 hours. o3o |
I remember that even though I loved reading, my GameBoy was probably my most prized possesion. It was the purple one, and I even had glued some stickers on it.
The day I lost it (I still think it was stolen, but alas) was probably one of the worst. And to top it off, my Red cartridge went with it too. Anyways, my favorite moments were: 1) when that guy who was blocking the Cerulean Cave's entry stepped aside. I just loved it. I usually saved so I could replay the scene: "YEAH, WHO'S THE INCAPABLE IDIOT NOW, UH?" 2) when I finally caught a Chansey on RB. Damn that was hard. Good times. :') |
How my Adventure Began
How my Adventure Began...by WaterIse
It's a VERY lengthy story, but I'll make it short as can be: It all began in 1998, when Pokémon Red & Blue were released. Well, I was only 5 years old, so I slept in my parent's room in a Blue's Clues tent. I had a turquoise-colored GameBoy Color and I was currently playing Pokémon Red at night time. Well, as I began my Pokémon adventure, I chose Charmander as my starter. I rose him into a level 100 Legit Charizard. Then the following night something BAD happened.....I remember this clearly to: I pressed the Start button, I saw the "SAVE" option, but I didn't know what it meant when I was 5. So....I just turned my GameBoy Color off and when I woke up the following morning, I only went to find out that my Charizard was no longer there. Ever since that drastic day, I vowed to always have a Charizard on my team and to always make it my #1 and favorite Pokémon of them all, no matter what. 11 years later and I'm still playing the old Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Crystal, Silver, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Fire Red, and Leaf Green versions with my Charizard. |

Spending who knows how long trying to get past the cut tree in Ilex Forrest.
Then finding myself stuck again trying figure out how to get past that Sudowoodo! |
My memories of Red
I got this game exactly 10 years ago. The first thing I remember is the sprite of my Squirtle. I remember thinking that it was the cutest thing ever and that I didn't want to let it evolve. Eventually I did, and eventually it became a Blastoise. I remember that the back sprite of my Blastoise looked awful, which is the case of many pokemon I guess. It added to the lovableness. I remember my Blastoise's moveset. Bite, Bubblebeam, Body Slam and Surf. Those moves saw it through about 60 levels and ultimately to level 100. I've never trained a pokemon to level 100 since that Blastoise. The only other pokemon I remember of my Red team was a Starmie. I remember thinking that it was just the prettiest thing that I had ever seen. It was like a piece of jewellery from outer space. <3 Also I had an obsession with Jigglypuff and spent hours in that route between Pewter and Mt. Moon catching them, but never using them. I had a similar fixation with Pikachus in Viridian Forest. Also with Tauros in Safari Zone. |D When it comes to the story I remember feeling terribly sad when I climbed out of the S.S. Anne and it sailed away. I remember the tune very clearly. I remember never going into Dark Cave. It was too scary. I remember accidentally wasting the Eevee I got in Celadon with a water stone. Not that I don't like Vaporeon, just at the time I would have loved a Jolteon and hated myself for ages for making the mistake. :/ I remember being so frustrated when I receiving the Lapras. I wanted to use it but I already had two water types in my team. x_x Gah. I remember the first time I saw Chansey in the Safari Zone. It was amazing. There's still some excitement when I see one today. I'll probably edit this. And post memories of Crystal at a later stage. |
RBY; Getting stuck in Viridian Forest, giving up. Worshipping my pikachu. Thinking I beat the game after the first gym leader. Being angry about not being able to see my game in the car at night.{we didn't have one of those hangover light things. D: } Ohyeah, and deleting my brother's file.
GSC; Too many to name. I was a bit older while playing these. {I could actually read/understand the concept of the game, I mean. lol. } Beating the kimono sisters. Getting lost all of the time. Naming my character God instead of Gold by accident. Catching sneasel. Playing the game whenever I was sick during the winter. Avoiding battles if I could. Always choosing cyndaquil as my starter. |
Before emulators were any decent...playing through Gold, in Japanese, when I was 10. It took me like six months to get through it. I was so proud of myself, I beat the entire game including Red...
...then I lent it to my friend who deleted my save. |

Me: Um, could you turn on the light? Parents in unison: No. Me: Why? Parents in unison: No. Me: Why? Parents in unison: No. Times infinity. Well, until we arrived, anyway. ;) Sometimes I would try to use the headlights from other cars and streetlights to see, lmao A few more that came to mind reading posts: -Believing that Weedle had a higher encounter rate in the square-shaped patch near the entrance to Viridian Forest. Sometimes I still search there in FR/LG, just for kicks. :P -Total lack of type-matchup knowledge. ffffffffff -Catching Moltres with a pokeball via crazy luck. -Being lost for hours upon hours in Tin Tower. I still hate that place..... -The above, except insert Whirl Islands. -Trading my Yellow version pikachu away to another version so I could evolve it, followed by confusion as to why it didn't follow me around as a Raichu. -Missingno glitch. ;) -Trying to comprehend that ghosts were pokemon, too, and then wondering if my pokemon would die. o_O -Wasting a masterball on a trainer's pokemon. -Being ttly creeped out by the Ruins of Alph, followed by dissapointment that there was nothing super awesome in there. But I do enjoy the puzzles, though. -Realizing how huge Dark Cave was, multiple exits and such. -Finding rare pokemon like Teddiursa, Dunsparce, and Skarmory by myself. <3 I'll post more later, I'm sure. |
My first time playing pokemon red, I choose charmander as my starter. I used him exclusively through mt. moon. Then misty stumped me, I could not beat her. My Chameleon was like lv 30. One of my friends traded me a pikachu, and I finally was able to beat her.

When i battle red in mt.Silver,i was surprised,he sent out a Pikachu,hahaha.
Too when i traveled Kanto,and when i get my espeon(and at last,an umbreon) |
R/B/Y
-the "Mew glitch" in Vermillion City by surfing by the SS Anne. I remember trading over a Victreebel and Blastoise from Red to Blue to get there. -the Mew glitch in Blue (Lavender town; it actually worked!) -Missingno. and the level 128 Charmeleons... Bahaha. Infinite Rare Candies. (too bad I didn't know about EVs...) -Calling the Elite 4 the "Eliot 4" because I was like 7 years old when Red was out. -nicknaming my first ever starter, Squirtle, Squirt. It's been that way ever since. G/S/C -choosing Totodile as my first starter -getting Lugia for the first time -riding the Magnet Train -hating Team Rocket, specifically the part in Mahogany Town and Goldenrod City -TOGEPI -KINGDRA! <3 |
Red (In japanese): (7~10 at that time)
Named my hero in japanese words (it'll sound like AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH) and naming my rival the same thing :P since I don't understand Japanese Green (Japanese again): Stuck in Vermillion City and trained my beloved Blastoise to Lv 56... Blue (English): Found the bike shop and went in. Guess what? I talked to the guy who said one bike costs like 100,000,000,000,000 AND I stupidly went selling my things up, battling trainers and still couldn't get the right amount :tired: Yellow (Chinese 0.o): Unbelievably, Pikachu's thundershock can destroy brocks geodude and onix 0.o It's really wierd but it's true... Gold: Realizing that I bought a fake one :knockedou Stuck in Goldenrod for weeks - months because of the Sudowoodo.:knockedou Crystal: Caught a Suicune with a masterball...:cer_pissed: |
I would say just playing the game for the first time was the coolest for me, because I'd seen the tv show and all that, and then I bought a gameboy pocket from a friend and got pokemon blue, and it was just awesome. I would try to do everything ash does, like get a weedle and evolve it and stuff. I love that game.
