The Bulbasaur Race [Part 2]

Dragonite doesn't look as majestic as its prevolutions, but it gets my upvote nevertheless.

Yeah it kinda is, but good thing there's a training spot in Island 1 in FR, the one outside the spa, it had 4 trainers and are kinda high-levelled, also good for EV Training in Attack :D

My favorite training spot was a double battle with a young couple to the east of Vermillion City, who use a lv55 Nidoking and Nidoqueen, really easy to train lower level Pokémon along if you had a strong Pokémon with Surf or Blizzard (got a level 97 Articuno thanks to them). I used to train all my Pokémon there, without keeping EVs in mind, completely messing up my special sweepers.

I'm fortunate that I kept all my old cards, except for a handful that I know I'm missing. My problem is that I can't find anyone to play against. Any friends I have around me that like Pokemon don't play the TCG and have no interest in it, so I'm also left with only the GBC game to play.

I would do PTCGO, but it just seems like getting into the TCG now (after not being in it for so long) will require a lot of dedicated time I don't have right now. Which is a shame, because I do really want to get back into it.

Aww... that sucks. I personally wouldn't really recommend the PTCGO though. There are too many new cards that bend the basic rules and a game basically lasts only six turns if you're not out of Pokémon earlier. It's crazy how fast set-up goes nowadays. I understand they want to make the new cards stronger than the old ones, but they've taken it too far in my opinion, I prefer an older era.
 
16 Dragonite is certainly more interesting than its preevos tbh.

We're almost there. I like its evolution line and Dragonair is my favorite.
 
13

Yeah, I can't believe we went through almost an entire generation already. Looks like we'll be seeing a Johto starter showdown soon. Personally I find the generation II starters relatively uninteresting and less useful compared to those from other generations.

Mewtwo regained his popularity thanks to the Megas, and also regained his title as strongest legendary... but he does face competition from Mega Rayquaza.
 
16

Yeah, but M-Rayquaza even broke Smogon's Ubers tier. That's the point when I think they might have gone a bit too far.

When it comes to the Johto starters, the Water one is my favourite, but the other two are meh to me.

I would never have guessed. :P
Feraligatr is actually really useful in the remakes, when there is the option to go for physical water type moves. I tried using it in the older days and all it could use was Slash, I'd rather use a normal type for it which has STAB. Nowadays, I hear it's pretty strong with Dragon Dance as set-up move. The name is still unpronounceable though.

Mewtwo is a classic. I remember the old days of saving my Master Ball for it in the Kanto games xD

Mewtwo was so hard to capture in Pokémon Yellow. After finally capturing it I felt so relieved. I'm still trying to find its mega stone though. Anyone know the location of where it is?

Think we'll be able to save it or no? By the way I think it's very cute.
