Did you catch all of the Unown forms?
If you catch all unowns you will get a rare candy and a tunnel. Do you catched all unowns to get those goodies?
|
What do you mean when you say "a tunnel?" XD Anyway, no, I've never managed to capture all Unown forms. Caught only one or two, and stopped after that.
|
I think I did in Platinum a couple years ago, it wasn't anything too significant but it did give me something to do. I never did in the Johto games or any other, though.
As for the tunnel, I think he's referring to the Ruin Maniac's cave fully connecting and Hippopotas becoming more common. |
I did actually, I wanted "!" and "?", which I think were only available at the end? Looking back, it wasn't entirely worth it haha.
|
I did catch all the Unowns at some point in one of the games (Diamond I think) so yeah it's nice to collect them even if they are that useless. Won't ever attempt it again given these days only way to obtain one in the more recent games is transfer-only.
|
I've never bothered to catch all the Unown. I just catch one for the Pokedex and that's it. Catching all of them don't help you in anything except waste Pokeballs and precious time. Well, you do get to make those ! and ? Unown appear, which aren't exactly very exciting rewards to begin with. Or should I say end with? Lol.
|
I did catch them all as I wanted an Question mark.
|
I have always tried but wasted too much time. I would get like 22 and couldn't fine the last omes to get! and ?
|
I have caught all of the Unown in the Sinnoh games and the Johto remakes. I was curious as to what would happen if I caught all of the Unown in Sinnoh, so I did that. I found out that a tunnel was mined out. Turns out that it lead to two special forms of Unown. That was probably one of the worst experiences of my life, to find more of the useless Pokemon. In the Johto remakes, I wanted to catch them there because I wasn't sure if there would be the same horrid reward as Sinnoh gave you for catching all of the Unown. I say that because there were some ancient buildings in the area and I wanted to know if catching all of the Unown opened up the sealed entrances. I forget what happens though. Turns out, they were just the two useless forms of Unown again.
|
While I was curious to what might happen if I actually caught all Unown, and did make it a point to try and catch all forms of it, I never actually managed to. I'm kinda glad I didn't either, because as A Bleu Sylveon mentioned, the reward for it was less than anything satisfying. Unless you're a collector, I don't really see a point in catching them all just to get two more forms of it, and you would end up catching all of them anyway, so it wouldn't make much of a difference :p So yeah, feel like it was a bit of a cop-out reward, but at least there is a reward! I did like to speculate what would happen if I did catch all of them though, but alas, the truth turned out to be quite a bit more disappointing than anything I'd imagined haha.
|
I know that i gave it a try, though i doubt that i made it very far. It just seemed like an unrewarding task to me and the motivation wasn't there.
|
I really wished they have Unknown more usefullness. Perhaps an item of somesort that when held by an Unknown actually makes it useful? It's a shame because while I like their concept, they are, in essence, useless.
In saying that, I didn't catch them all. I would like to catch them all, but knowing that there's no reward other than a slither of satisfaction, I'd rather not; considering I could be using my time to find shinies :3c. |
I'm pretty sure I caught them all. It was annoying since every time you caught one it became harder to find the ones you were looking for.
I agree with curiousnathan that they should have been made more useful. I would think that a good idea would been that having a certain amount of unknown, positioned a certain way in the party would offer new moves/stats. (Finally putting them to use for spelling, lol) |
Nope, haha. The idea of Unown didn't ever appeal to me. I always just looked at them and went "eh what's the big deal, really." While I was interested in the Rare Candy, I don't think catching 27 of the same species is worth the investment. When you're done catching them, what are you really gonna do? Store them in a box and make an Unown museum? Use them? I mean I guess it's nice to collect stuff but I've never really been a big fan of them. They're cute though, I'll give them that much. :p
|
I did catch them all once. I did it cause I wanted to know what the unknown scribt says in the cave. And Also becuase I wanted to draw all Unknown forms :)
|
I remember trying to a long time ago and after getting the 5 same letters consistently, I gave up.
|
After having caught all of the Unown in FireRed, I had no desire to go and do it again in Platinum. I wish I would've known that having all the Unown gives you a special reward in Platinum, as I might've sent them through the Pal Park to that game rather than HeartGold.
|
No way. Unown sucks, it's stats are bad, it only learns hidden power, no way I'm wasting my time on that. It also seems stupid to just get the same pokemon many times for some things that probably won't matter.
|
Well I never complete Pokedex on any of the games- so nope I never caught all the unown forms because there are way too many of their forms xD And they are not really useful either xD
|
I didn't have the motivation to. xD;; It was fun in G/S/C but in D/P/Pt it was an absolute chore that I didn't want to bother with. Pretty sure I tried to but that was fairly short-lived.
|
No I didn't catch all the Unknown forms I only ever caught one of the Unknown just to add it to my Pokedex.
|
I caught almost all of them in FireRed before! But then I just gave up on them. xD
|
Yes, I got all of them.
And it whas A hell of a job for me xD |
I believe I did in Platinum. It was a nice little rewarding feeling when I got to the ! and ? chamber of Unowns.
|
Jeez, I wish I had caught all the Unown. I have tried on a couple of occasions, but usually it just ends with me getting frustrated that I can't find A. I think maybe I'll try to on this Diamond version I picked up recently, though. I mean as of now there's no way to catch Unown in any of the newer games, not that anyone would use them haha.
|
Yeah I did manage to catch all the Unown in my Platinum game once :) And indeed, that guy (the Ruin Maniac) would dig further into the "Ruin Maniac's Cave" everytime you caught some Unown :) That's what you meant with the "Tunnel" right? ;)
I remember there were several rooms, and you had to search through ALL of them in the Gen.4 games because some Unown were only to be found in a particular room (they all looked the same though except for the large one where you could catch the "?" and "!" Unown but ONLY if you caught all the other A-Z Unown). :3 |
I wonder how many people cant get over the grammar mistake in the title.
Can someone please change it? xD OT: Nope, but I am planning to do it in one of the games for sure. |
I always wanted to, but I never managed it. I was always more interested in getting through the main game and then post game than actually finding all of them. xD
It's such a time sink; I'll probably go back and catch them all at some point, if only to say that i did it, and to make sure my pokedex is 100% done. |

On my first file, yes. I wanted to get the ! and ? Unowns.
|
I remember catching them all in one of my games a long time ago, might have been Gold or Crystal if I remember correctly. I usually don't have room for all of them, so I probably won't try that again. XD
|
I attempted to, caught around 5 or 6, then gave up. I like the idea of the puzzles and the mystery of the Unown and all that, but the effort to round them all up's too much...
I can only buy so many Poke Balls. |
Caught them all and sent a pic to a few of my friends on XBL, who proceeded to sing the "ABC's" song along with them. Lol
|
I caught enough to make like whole messages in my PC with them and then I made a video asking this girl out using all of my unown. It worked.
|
Oh goodness no! I've never had the patience to catch all of the unkown forms. Catching 26 of those suckers would take a long time, and though I'm a fan I don't think I could muster through the task. I didn't know about the tunnel though, that's a cool piece of information.
|
NO, never.. i only caught 1 in pokemon gold when i saw it for first time and one more when i found a shiny xD
|
Not in this games, but I did back in Gold (if you don't count the question/exclamation marks Unowns). I wasn't that involved with the fourth generation in general (or at least, not the Sinnoh side of it.) I never finished my Platinum, or caught all the legendaries in Diamond.
|
I caught them all in Platinum...and then spent time organising them in alphabetical order xD I had alot of free time then.
|
I never attempted it, and I never want to, haha. While it does seem cool in retrospect to have all 26, they're weak Pokemon with no viable use in-game spare being a collector's item. If I was into 'catching em' all', then I might have considered it, but even then, it's a boring time-suck in my opinion. :/
