What was the hardest part of FR/LG when you started playing it?
 
Not everyone can have beginners luck. I know that. What was the hardest part of these games for you when you started?

For me it was definately Misty when my starting Pokemon was a Charmander.

Signomi August 19th, 2005 5:07 AM

Ditto. Trying to beat Misty when you started with Charmander was a bit of a toughy, plus I didn't even bother to capture a Pikachu when I had the chance. -_-;

Squeegee Beckenheim August 19th, 2005 5:08 AM

I caught one, but I really had to train it to mid-twenties which was a pain in the butt.

Charizard_Fire_God August 19th, 2005 5:23 AM

Meh, tch, I start all my versions with fire-types, tch, so beatin' Misty was tha hardest thing I ever had ta do. Lol, when I was done beatin' her Starmie my Charmeleon had only 1 HP left an' tha rest of my party was faint. XD

The Fallen August 19th, 2005 6:51 AM

When I got to Lt. Surge. I started off with Squirtle, so I pressume you know why it was hard XD.

Squeegee Beckenheim August 19th, 2005 9:08 AM

Yup, I know. When I was inexperianced I would catch a Lvl 28-29 Dugtrio in the Diglett Cave. Beat Surge and then use the Dugtrio(stronger that all my other Pokemon) throughout the entire game.

not much really but prberly catching pokemon was the hardest and training them to the best!!

Happy Dude August 19th, 2005 2:46 PM

When I started playing it the hardest part was getting my pokemon up to decent levels.XD

Dark Penguin August 19th, 2005 6:50 PM

definately beating misty. she was really good, and considering i wanted to beat her so i could get oddish and hadn't trained that much yet, she kicked charmander and pigeotto around [starmie is EVIL!!!!]

Dragon Lover August 19th, 2005 7:05 PM

I'm not sure... Misty was easy 'cause I used Charmeleon to Faint Staryu then weaken Starmie with Pidgeotto and finally lower the boom with Charmeleon but I think the Hardest part was beating Lorelli... her Lapras wont budge!

beat the elite 4 in 14hrs

Cookie luvs Green August 19th, 2005 7:56 PM

I had not much trouble in gym battles. Except Koga, I forgot why, but I remembered it took me forever to beat him.
I remebered I lost in a trainer battle once, I think it was near Mt. Moon. I remembered I had to quickly heal my Pokemon and I didn't have any healing items with me. And then a trainer I hadn't battled with yet caught me and I lost xD
And in the beggining of the game, going around without running shoes was a pain xDD;

.::Tsunami::. August 19th, 2005 8:07 PM

Dr. Master August 19th, 2005 8:17 PM

Signomi August 19th, 2005 9:06 PM

But the real challenge for me was to try and catch the legendary birds. Honestly, you run them down to a little HP, either Paralyze/Sleep/Freeze/etc.. them and you chuck an Ultra ball at them...and another...and another...and you're soon left with all your 99 Ultra Balls wasted and no Bird in either one of them... <-- My normal situation with the pain in the necks -_-

SRV August 20th, 2005 2:09 PM

Yeah catching the legendary birds is really hard, but catching the legendary Mewtwo is almost impossible for me. I might've tried over 30 times...Thankfully I saved my masterball..

mizu-dragon August 20th, 2005 2:14 PM

The hardest thing was probably going through Mt. Moon. I mean, it wasn't actually that hard, but I detest Mt. Moon. I know it like the back of my hand from helping my own Yellow and from helping my brothers with their versions, and it just got too boring to bear. After that it was all good.

In contrast, I like Rock Tunnel because I can get through it without Flash because of that experience.

The Fly August 23rd, 2005 2:40 PM

Well, since the game was a remake, I knew I had to go through all that crap I went through in Red...

First off, Mount Moon. I have a pet peeve about traveling in long dungeons, so there you go. At least I got my Charmeleon to level 23.

Second, the whole Rock Tunnel fiasco. But to make the whole thing fun, I didn't get Flash and trained all my Pokemon to level 40 before I got out...

Lastly, the E4 (the second time). I had no idea their pokemon grew about 10 levels since the last time I challenged them...and I got screwed over bad by Lorelei...

Crazy Frogitist August 25th, 2005 1:02 AM

its actually to fill all ur dex :cheeky: :cheeky: (i think)

Trainer C August 25th, 2005 2:02 AM

I think its deffinatly, the second-round Elite Four battle.

CardsOfTheHeart August 25th, 2005 7:16 AM

i just started playing FR/LG and training my pokemon made me remember why i quit playing blue.

Crystal Clair August 25th, 2005 9:32 AM

My hardest part was when I had to beat Koga. I dont know how I eventually did it even a friend's Charizard couldn't do it XP. It was probably that ****ing Muck! With minimize and substitute iirc.

shadow909 August 28th, 2005 9:05 AM

i had no hard parts because every trainer i see i battle them so thats why misty was so easy to beat especuially with my charmeleon. all i needed to use to beat starmie ands staru was flamethrower then vuila i make mistys pokemon faint.

Shining Lericon August 28th, 2005 11:17 AM

The hardest part of FR/LG when I started was when I had to beat Brock using my Charmeleon's Metal Claw, since my other Pokemon didn't have effective moves against Brock's Pokemon.

Kyle August 28th, 2005 1:29 PM

When I first played it was exactly like red and blue version except when the help menu poped up,that pissed me off alot because i didn't know what to do :confused: But after i while i noticed some changes but i day Leaf is better 'cause you get non-defence deoxys :P
