>Just "finished" Yellow
>Have caught everything but the red/blue exclusives
>Can't finish the game because 1) no friends, 2) no global trade support, and 3) no pokebank support to switch mons over from my red and blue games
Is this what it was like being a gen 1 kid?
This is fucking awful.
>plays pokemon
>has no friends
>>25735448
Yes?
>>25735448
Sorry, I should have realized that was default and didn't need saying.
>>25735459
Just play VNs like the rest of us, video games are a friends thing

>no pokebank support
I thought the whole joke about the VC release of RBY was that it had bank support?
>>25735402
Why does wireless not even let you put up an offer to someone whose friend code you have? That way you could at least evolve your pokemon for the Gen 1 rereleases (if you're willing to buy the same game twice) and for all your DS games.
You could always use the Trainer-Fly glitch
Mew glitch them? Or buy the others on another ds. I'd be willing to bet you have multiple if you have no friends.That's what I did.

>Or buy the others on another ds
I can understand buying different versions of the game
I'll NEVER understand fags who buy multiple consoles.
>>25735402
Where do you live OP maybe one of us can be your friend desu
Back then you could always trade mons with random kids at school, you didnt even need to know each other or be friends.
>>25735402
No, it wasn't. In 99 everyone had friends.
>>25735530Bumfuck, South Korea
Being a gen 1 kid was fine.
My friends helped me get the version exclusives and Pokemon stadium helped me get the other starters, hitmon, and fossils.
I'm just glad that back then, there weren't version exclusive legendaries.

>tfw I was the only kid with a link cable and a Action Replay
Trading Mews for sandwiches, money and Pokemon cards.
>>25735590
I didn't.
>>25735491
Wait, the "no friends" thing is actually real and not some overused meme?
>>25735402
>Playing pokemon on a paid emulator that doesn't even support trading with yourself
There's literally no excuse for this. Either play the real thing on a real gameboy or use an emulator that's actually decent.
>>25735491
I've been doing the mew glitch with ditto, completed the dex in a couple of days and am sitting on boxes of mew, mewtwo and zapdos.
Though if you got yellow you can't dupe.
>>25735402
No because when it came out, practically every kid had a gameboy and a Pokemon game
I did know a couple kids with two GBCs though who would trade shit to himself all the time. I guess if your parents spoiled you enough then it was fine

>tfw younger brother also into pokemon
>tfw free trades
