serious... "pokecommunity"? haha naaa all the mad dogs go to pokecommunity.com...
Anyway, that was a great start to my post, which was meant to be about how much of a "pokefan" I am. I love pokemon, I think it is probably the greatest game ever made, and the TV series is also pretty darn cool. I've played it since it came out, and I still play it now at 15, which pretty much makes me a nerd. I don't like to think of myself as a nerd due to my extreme coolness, but I think registering an account here renders me quite the nerd. Dweeboid, if you will.
Red and Blue are without a doubt the best versions of pokemon, due to their originality and depth; the pokedex is the greatest. Yellow uses the same awesome pokedex but I'm not as big a fan of it, on account of that annoying little pikachu. Dumb little critter... But seriously, if I was held up a picture of a pokemon from RBY I could name it. And I'm sure everyone else on this site could too, any pokemen from RBY. The newer versions on the other hand, are a completely different story.
Gold and Silver (while still being fun) began to introduce the pokemon I like to refer to as "fake". No matter what anyone says, the original 150 pokemon ARE pokemon. The rest are just fillers in an attempt to make more money by bringing out RuSa, Emerald etc.
I actually bought Red and Silver for my Advance, but from what I'd heard about RuSa, I went out and downloaded Visual Boy to play it for free. I'm glad I made that decision, and although it was yet again fun to beat the elite 4 and hunt down some "legendary" pokemon, the majority of the pokedex was filled with utter cra-psh1t.
Nintendo execs must have been given about 24 hours to come up with 200 "new" and "exciting" pokemon for a new version to make them all millionaires. As you can probably imagine the results were brainless and a complete cop out eg. "fire turtle" (torkoal) and "electric dog" (electrike) I could come up with better pokemon than that!
My point is that Red and Blue own the sh1t and that all the versions after are just money-makers.
This is probably just like all the other posts that newbies make, but hey, what are you going to do? seriously what are you going to do? what? hahaha nothing! you're powerless to the might of thine!
