You might remember them, or you might not. But I certainly do.
I remember lots of rumors about the pokemon games. Rumors not necessarily about digletts nose being a mouth, or gengar being clefables shadow.
No. I'm talking stupid rumors you thought might happen in your pokemon game if you did a certain thing.
Some of the rumors my friends told me (and other kids) were that if you sat at the left side of the trade machine (this was on the gameboy, pokemon Leaf Green) frequently you would become the pokemon champion, while if you sat on the right side of the trade machine frequently you would become to owner of the museum in Pewter City.
Another one was when my friend told me you would only get a shiny pokemon after you have had played more than 400 hours. Got to about 450 hours of played time on my Leaf Green until I finally figured it out he was lying.
Mind you, these things I believed when I was about 8 years old in like 2005, without knowing of game walkthroughs on the internet, only in magazines I never had.
So, have you ever believed any in-game rumors your friends told you when you were younger? Like the ones I just mentioned? Or were you smart enough not to believe them?
