Sorry for inactivity! My explanation: SCHOOLWORK.
Anyway, hello new members! Hope you have a splendid time here! Bayleef is a cool Pokémon, I used it in my secondmost recent playthrough of Crystal. And it rocked pretty good! @Sector Revenge and Mentalii: HOW DARE YOU PUT UMBREON UNDER ESPEON!!!!1!1!11!!1!!!! No JK xD. But in all seriousness that wasn't even funny... ... I should go back to my cave now... |
I liked Bayleef the most among the three (Chikorita, Bayleef, Meganium). It looked pretty good, unlike those two epic dinosaurs. :)
Umbreon is the better of the two for me. Epic wall, whereas Espeon will be overlooked and overshadowed by all of the Psychic types if not for Magic Bounce. |
Out of Bayleef's evolutionary line, Bayleef was the one I disliked the most. It wasn't its performance in battle I disliked, as I never actually chose it, however I didn't like its design at all. I don't like how the few leaves it has makes it seem so naked, where as with Chikorita it seems more natural, and with Meganium it isn't as evident. I did really like Meganium's design though, it just appealed very much to me, especially with those colourful flowers n_n

Umbreon is my favorite among the the eeveelutions. :)
Bayleef is not naked! How dare you! |
Sorry for being inactive lately, my excuse is school as well ( ̄ー ̄)
But omigod i love bayleaf, as well as chikorita and meganium! Thanks ikaros, again lol |
Out of the lot Bayleef is the best looking, Meganium and Chikorita seem to girly for me, not saying that it's a bad thing but it's kind or like a more female based Pokemon and the chances of getting a male is rather high. Best thing about Chikorita line is that it learns Razor Leaf nice and early.

On the rare occasion i start with Chikorita i just tackle Falkner to death :P
I mean compared to Bulbasaur and such, It doesn't learn Razor leaf til later one and your stuck with poopy Vine Whip for how ever long. |
For me, I love the Chikorita line... They were my first pokemon when I played Pokemon Crystal in an emulator....

Hiya everyone!
Name: Hydro Pumper What you would like others to call you: Hydro Partner Pokémon: Kingdra Favourite Gen II Pokémon: Kingdra Reason For Joining:I love Johto! I feel at home in the Pokemon world when I am watching the Johto saga of the anime, and playing the Johto-themed games. "it's a whole new world we live in" -> good quote ;3 |
What else does chikorita really have against Fawkner? Can't exactly razor leaf a pidgeotto.
Welcome Hydro Pumper :) |
I'd train other pokemon or trade a local bellsprout for the onix from the boy in one of the houses, to battle against Fawkner. Rocky proved to be a powerhouse, especially now as my level 57 steelix. <3
|
I could never be bothered to train rocky up. I knew i would barely use it so i didn't bother much. I always have the second evolution by Fawkner and 3rd evolution by Whitney
|
See, Rocky was also pretty useful for Whitney too, her miltank was no match. ;p
|
Rocky can die!!!
haha I got rocky several times but never trained it. I really couldn't be bothered looking for Bellsprout in G/S |
Quote:
I always trade Bellsprout for Rocky, but I never use it to battle Falkner. :) |
To battle Fawkner recently I've been training up a Geodude because well i got nothing better, but i usually start with Cyndaquil so i barely use Geodude anyway.
I'm more of a starter person, i always rely on them and they never leave my party unless i have to get rid of them for a challenge or whatever |
Me too. I could won the whole HGSS with Typhlosion + HM slave only.
|
I used to be a starter pokemon, I'd always try an dtrade with my sister and her friends to obtain the three starters for my team in other Pokemon Games. I'd usually then have the three starters, a strong flying type (most of the time the local one: pidgey, starly) and electric type or dragon type and a ground type.
|
You know how people do the monotype challenge and solo challenge and everything. I've been doing them since i was like 6 without meaning to with just my starter :P
It's only been recently i've started making actual teams infact it started with HG/SS hahah |

I think it had the best pokemon,the best cities/towns,and also kanto! |
Welcome FT
You just need to add one little thing to your post :) |
Welcome to the club! I think we need a new topic.
What did you do to the Red Gyrados? i captured it, and boxed it immediately. I mean, I was doing a monobug run, so I really have no use for him. |
Quote:
Not really a big fan of holding Pokemon who has 4x Weaknesses. Plus, Shiny Gyarados is a nice Pokemon to have boxed up anyway. Poor guy...never to see sunlight again. |
Yes. Gyrados in the second gen was a meh! pokemon. It is supposed to be good, but cannot due to lack of moves. And shiny one is no excemption.
|
Quote:
|
yes! Red Gyarados looks too much special (and its role ain't little either) to not be a special pokemon. They could at least gave it proper moves. Sadly, I think the only reason why they include it is to tell the world that shiny pokemon exists. Like:
"Hey! look at this gyarados! It's color is different! We albino pokemon exists! Come catch us!" |
What did you do to the Red Gyarados?
Well it depends... I use to box it, mainly because I always choose the water starter so, useless to own a second water-type. Or in my Gold Version, where I had exceptionally chosen the cute Cyndaquil, I kept it, to have a "pretty strong" water Pokémon. After all, we can't deny that Gyarados, shiny or not, is a tough Pokémon, despite its weaknesses. And miltankRancher you're right, the reason of the red Gyarados' presence is to show people that shiny Pokémon exist. Because they're so rare, developers prefered include a shiny that everybody could find to prove that they are real. |
Quote:
Though all-in-all, I usually caught the Gyarados and either used it if I didn't have a Water type, or stuffed it in the PC box. |
I use the Red Gyarados as my HM slave with Surf, strength, whirlpool and waterfall
and that's pretty much it |
Quote:
NEWS: I just recently caught Red Gyarados, with adamant nature! O yeah. I think I will be using it during the summer break to go against my brother. Haha! |

What you would like others to call you: "eb" works, I guess... Partner Pokémon: Tauros if allowed. (He's in the Johto dex! x]) But if not, I'll go with Sentret. Favourite Gen II Pokémon: Raiku, Espeon, Wooper, and Furret Reason For Joining: G2 has always been my favorite. Hands down. =] |
You lucky duck mR, i lack the effort to wait for adamant nature haha
welcome Earth boy! :) |
So, I think it's appropriate to get a new topic now, so here goes.
'Which Gen II Pokémon do you think has the most uncreative design?' I guess I'd have to say Remoraid, due to how plain its design is. Comparing it to its animal counterpart, there isn't much difference at all, no additional, interesting features to make it more than a simple fish. I don't get why it evolves into an octapus either. It may have been the same with Magikarp, though that was the first generation and they shouldn't really be expected to go on a creativity outburst due to it being the first time. Another example of simpleness in the design could be Ursaring. Not much to distinguish it from a real life bear. |
Quote:
Pineco. A pine cone with eyes. Wow, best Pokémon ever. Fortunately, its evolution is way better. |
Ursaring is pretty good for me. I like his design. Simple yet really realistic.
I however, agree with Remoraid. I mean, that does not even look like a Pokemon. He looks like something I can catch with my real life rod! Octillery is way no better. Also, another Pokemon that comes to mind is Qwilfish. I mean, he's just a puffer fish for Arceus' sake. |
Name: Hybrid Trainer
What you would like others to call you: Hybrid or David I guess. Partner Pokémon: Houndour Favourite Gen II Pokémon: Too many to pick from ;; I guess Politoad? I usually get a shiny one and raise along side a shiny Ninetailes. Reason For Joining: Pokemon Silver was the game that made me fall in love with Pokemon. I played Pokemon Blue but I was too young to understand what was happening and to really enjoy it. Topics and such~ - Which do you like better? HeartGold or Soulsilver? I prefer Soul Silver simply because of the version exclusives. My favourite pokemon is Ninetales so it's not really a surprise that I'm going to side with the version that has that pokemon. Also I liked the Lugia cut scene a lot more than the Ho-Oh one. The use of the cave system and the waterfall was amazing. - What did you do to the Red Gyrados? In my original playthrough of Pokemon Silver I kept it as part of my team and used it as a HM slave. Bare in mind that I wasn't aware of shinies and I just thought that it was some special pokemon. On all my other playthroughs of silver though I trained it as a part of my team because Gyrados is amazing but I could never be bothered to catch and train a magikarp. In my Soul Silver run though I just boxed it. I'd already planned out a team before hand so I didn't need it. {it's a whole new world we live in} |

Alright, since Ikaroschase hasn't been here for quite a while, I'll be the one managing the club for the time being. Any questions, request, etc. can be VM'd or PM'd to me, though if it's something just the least bit urgent and I'm not around, just ask AlexOzzyCake, I'm sure he won't mind.
Anyways, the new members have been updated and are now officially members in this club, even though some of them forgot something in their post ;p I'm not sure if the current topic is old enough to be changed, so if the members think it is, feel free to change it. |
- Which Gen II Pokémon do you think has the most uncreative design?
I think that most people confuse uncreative with simplistic sometimes :( Stuff like the unown are actually a really interesting idea, just because they are simple doesn't mean that they are uncreative :3 Ones that I do think are uncreative are the baby pokemon. It seams lazy to shrink down a few pokemon and say that they are baby ones, especially when some didn't need baby pokemon to begin with like Pichu or Igglybuff. |
Spoon - Take A Walk
I went back to the OP and found a question I really enjoyed, so I felt like elaborating on a few things. Not trying to change the flow of the current topic or anything; my gears just really started turning when I read this, so I hope nobody minds. ^-^
Quote:
Now Apricorns and berries gave birth to unique concepts that still hold true (although in slightly varied forms) in the generations to this day. These new item types went hand-in-hand with the idea of held items which still holds noticeable influence on the games, especially in the field of competitive battling; new beta-like pokéballs were introduced to invoke strategic capturing instead of the mindless chucking of the highest-valued ball that had developed with the previous generation; and may I digress, Kurt was just so swag [sic] in those games. =3 |

Oh yeah! Umbreon is definitely a beast! welcome to the club! feel free to answer some ongoing discussion questions.
Let's have a new topic. Among the key personalities introduced on Johto (including HGSS people), who is the most interesting and why? This includes Elm, Mr. Pokemon, Eusine, the Gym leaders, your rival, E4. Feel free to discuss anything related to them. |
To the old topic:
Most unoriginal design goes to the Unown, Dunsparce(gives me nightmares) Pineco and Sunflora, a useless sunflower that can't see where it's going.Whoop! On to the new topic: Among the key personalities introduced on Johto (including HGSS people), who is the most interesting and why? This includes Elm, Mr. Pokemon, Eusine, the Gym leaders, your rival, E4. Feel free to discuss anything related to them. I'd have to say Whitney is unique, a very childish gym leader indeed, has a little tantrum when she loses. Chuck has unique ways of training *coughmeditatingunderawaterfallcough* Jasmine is a very caring person who cares about Amphy a lot. Your rival is good because of the way he acts and another interesting personality would be the hyuk-hyuk-hyuk guy from team rocket. Interesting indeed. |

I would probably have to say the rival. Not much of his personality was actually shown, nor any background or anything about him. He is the most mysterious rival of all that has been introduced up till now. With the few encounters you had with him through the games, you got to know that he was a bit of a loner, he wasn't much for approaching people, but he didn't want people to get in his way either. The only reason he constantly kept coming after you, was because he repeadetly lost to you, and wanted to prove that he could beat you. He didn't treat his Pokémon very well, as the man in the Sprout Tower had mentioned, and a thing which could also be traced off of his personality. He also despised Team Rocket like no one else, which was honestly kinda weird, 'cause he seemed like a person that would've been in Team Rocket. Though it was made kinda evident in FR/LG that he was the son of Giovanni, so it might have been daddy issues? Either way, he differs a lot from most other 'important' characters in the games. |
I agree with the rival. Typical anti-hero antagonist who wants nothing in the world except to beat you, and yet his character is as colorful as any other. his mysteriousness and wants were not the usual of a video game character. He stand on his own platform. Definitely my favorite rival of all.
|
I hesitate between the rival and Eusine... To tell the truth I think that Silver has lost some charisma in HGSS, while in these games Eusine was more interesting than in Crystal. Both characters are mysterious.
The rival, being the son of Giovanni, has something else than any other ones. And, his personnality really make of him someone unique. |

The most interesting to me would be the rival. His personality and mysteriousness way much different than any of the other rivals. He actually seems more like an enemy while the others are just a friend/friends of yours. The fact that he's the son of Giovanni makes him even better. Eusine, is another interesting character. His pursuits to find Suicune are intriguing and he got a lot more developed in HGSS so I learned more about his character. I'm also glad the Kimono Girls interact with you more in HGSS. They became more developed characters and I find their personalities interesting too. |
Eusine is a pretty good character. He's the epitome of obsession, but that is the the thing that made his character really good. In a way, I see Eusine as some kind of rival, but on a friendly competition.

Name: Gonshiro What you would like others to call you: Gonshiro, Gon Partner Pokémon: Sudowoodo, Scizor Favourite Gen II Pokémon: Bayleef, Quilava, Feraligatr, Sudowoodo, Scizor, and Ursaring Reason For Joining: Crystal has to be my favorite Pokemon game, in fact I am currently replaying it. I like the Johto cities, and I think that it's pretty dark compared to the first game (Slowpokes having their tails chopped off, Red Gyarados at the Lake of Rage). I personally enjoyed the Morning/Day/Night feature, and it's a whole new world we live in ya know. I may have stopped watching the anime at this point, but I did enjoy Gold and Crystal, along with Stadium 2. |
Alright, so since there has been no sign of Ikaroschase returning, and since there aren't really any regulars in this club that want it, it's getting closed. If anyone wants ownership for this club, just say in the Grand-Master thread that you want ownership of the club, and answer the questions, or you can just remake the club.
Either way, Closed |
