GSVC Countdown Chat
 
https://img.pokemondb.net/images/boxes/gold-silver.jpg


Welcome to the 30 Day Countdown! Today marks 30 days until the Gold and Silver VC release! This thread will be updated every day counting down until the best day ever: September 22! The thread will feature fun little facts from Gold and Silver and is also a Daily Chit Chat thread! What does that mean?


Follow PC's rules firstly but otherwise this thread is free reign to discuss anything you're excited about or anything on your mind about the upcoming VC releases! If you want to discuss Gen 2 in general feel free to make a thread in the main Second Generation forum but anything that comes to mind regarding the VC remakes... have at it here! :)


30 Days to Go!
Did you know... Silver cheated and got a Croconaw at level 16 instead of level 18!

Ho-Oh August 24th, 2017 7:17 AM

29 days to go! As for today's fun fact... you can still fish for Pokemon in Misty's gym (something you could do in RB)

Ho-Oh August 25th, 2017 5:38 AM

28 days! Today's fun fact? Your rival is Giovanni's son!

I'm hoping against hope that even though they haven't announced it, Crystal somehow comes to VC as well. It was just the definitive GBC Pokemon game!

Ho-Oh August 27th, 2017 5:10 AM

I super hope so too :( I need Crystal! It made the Johto region like a million times more amazing due to the fun little minor features. c: The Suicune stuff was a bit boring though...

Also. I skipped a day. So yay, we're now at 26 days to go! Today's fun tip... Chikorita is the hardest to battle with so avoid it at all costs if you want to beat the game easily!

Hikamaru August 27th, 2017 8:40 AM

I agree in that Chikorita is the worst Johto starter to use in the game. My personal best choice would be Cyndaquil, though Totodile isn't too bad either.

EC August 29th, 2017 1:08 PM

Well I don't want to beat the game easily so I'm picking Chikorita.

Ho-Oh August 30th, 2017 5:40 AM

My counting skills are clearly awful haha. 23!

So today's fun little fact?? Okay it's not a fact but rather an opinion - The Magnet Train was THE cooolest thing back in the day!

EC August 30th, 2017 2:56 PM

These gonna be $10 a pop, yes? Or $20? Do we know?

Neon Pink August 30th, 2017 5:22 PM

According to Gamestop, 10 dollars a pop. I don't know my starter yet (or if i'm even gonna get this game lol). I LOVE Totodile (hyper little cute guy with awesome evo), but I also LOVE Chikorita (for challenge and cutenesss) but I also LOVE Cyndaquil (Cuteness at first but it's evo is so good). Let's face it...Jhoto=BEST STARTERS! So that's my opinion.

Ho-Oh August 31st, 2017 10:18 PM

It's literally this month! :)

Honestly it's true though @ post below: Johto has the hardest starters to pick... They're all amazing :( There is just something that makes them all super loveable. Maybe because their designs seem rounded? Idk!

What do you guys think the rest of Pokemon will do to celebrate these games? Re-release of the guide book? Yes please!

That's why I'm gonna try and do that glitch where you can get all three.

I'm hoping US/UM will have Alolan forms of Gen 2 Pokemon as a tie in.
Maybe they could release a new version of the Pocket Pikachu 2 or the Pokewalker that could connect to the 3DS so you can get rare items on G/S's Mystery Gift.

I still have my original guide book somewhere. Covers worn off, pages gone.

Ho-Oh September 3rd, 2017 4:46 AM

I wish they would make a Pokewalker for the games... but alas. :( What I think will happen is... literally nothing. Maybe just a Celebi distribution. It's sad actually when you think about it - these games were literally the pride and joy of Pokemon, I mean, if they were bad then we weren't gonna get a gen 3 or anything further than that. I would LOVE if they brought out all the books and toys that I had back when I first explored Johto, made the region sooo much more memorable! :)

I legit though have so many happy memories of exploring GSC. It was literally my childhood, my love, my everything. The Celebi event I went to where I saw SOOOOOO many people IRL just... in love with Pokemon as a kid was incredible. Guys I'm so excited lol Honestly all the merch just added to the amazing moments. :)

BlazingCobaltX September 3rd, 2017 6:19 AM

I really wanna know what's in the special edition, I love these games so much I might buy them (even if it's gotta be in Spanish). I really hope there's some cool stuff in there.

Ho-Oh September 4th, 2017 4:42 AM

Guess I got my answer! Those in Japan that pre-order get a special GS 3DS theme. Here's hoping we get it as well :)

EC September 4th, 2017 7:16 AM

I think I'm going to play through Gold like I would any new release. Catching everything. Also plan on hopefully beating Red for the first time ever before Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon come out.

Then I'll transfer everything over via PokeBank.

Mimikyu402 September 5th, 2017 4:29 PM

I just loved the minor things added into crystal like the suicune mini story

EC September 12th, 2017 1:29 PM

Well I just got a $20+ refund on Amazon for something I ordered earlier in the year being broken already, so I guess I'll be buying both of these games now.

Except the problem is most Japan-exclusive stuff never even seems to make it overseas.

CELEBI BONUS EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Ho-Oh September 14th, 2017 4:23 AM

Download the games asap to get these:

No questions now. I'm getting both Gold AND Silver. :) Want them both! Is this changing anyone else's mind??

Janp September 14th, 2017 7:04 AM

I wanted to get Gold, but I really like Silver theme more :D I'll probably still buy Gold and then stand-alone SiIver theme, if it'll be available.

Also, that Celebi is nice bonus.

noa September 14th, 2017 11:55 AM

I think I've changed my planned in game team 5 times now. Maybe I'll just wing it, but I do know that I'm going to start out with Meganium and Noctowl. I think I'm gonna get someone to trade me a Mantine too.

EC September 14th, 2017 12:13 PM

I need these games to release. Going through Pokemon withdrawals. Longest I've been without playing a game.
