The Bug Catching Contest is a famous little 'mini-game'/feature that allows us to participate in a little competition between a few trainers to see who can catch the strongest bug type pokemon. What were your thoughts on its return? Were you happy to see it return? Compete in it much? Caught any pokemon that have become invaluable members to your Johto team?
I loved this contest. It was simple yet so much fun, and surprisingly - for me - quite difficult to win. I'd catch a pretty strong butterfree yet come 2nd to a trainer who's caught a weedle. The prizes were somewhat useful too, especially at the beginning stages of the game on one's first runthrough, and it did provide for some good captures. I captured a scyther and trianed it up to a Scizor on my most recent HG save file, and it's proved to be an incredibly valuable team member, winning several gym badges for me.
