Can we have a Gen I discussion thread?
Recently I was cleaning my room and found my old cart of Pokemon Blue. I remembered my file had a complete pokedex and so I popped it in to see if the battery had died.
Lo and behold the battery was not dead, but my perfect file had been replaced by one where I was in Lavender Town with only three badges. I don't remember doing this but oh well. I decided to start a fresh game.

I don't have any of my original tapes anymore, but about 12 years ago someone gave me a German copy of Yellow that I still have up to this date for some reason
(I don't speak German? Never have?)
I never finished it because I am an actual idiot that pressed New Game more than I'm willing to admit

It'll happen eventually, just not nearly as quick as G/S/C die because there's no real-time clock.
What's your favorite and least favorite Gen 1 mons? Favorite is Electabuzz, least is Exeggcute.

Holy f*ckin sh!t!!! :O
Playing it a bit, I started remembering how much I loved these games. So I figured, why not play them all?
Currently, I just beat Lt. Surge, have 25 Pokemon, and a team that consists of:
>Wartortle (named Shelldon)
>Pidgeotto
>Sandslash
>Weepinbell
>Kadabra
>Meowth

Favorites are definitely Jolteon, Haunter and Sandslash.
Not sure about least favorite though
My friend's boyfriend just started to get into Pokemon, he's 26 and never played any before and he is playing X for the first time now. He said he wanted to go back and play all the first gens, particularly Gen 1/2. I'm happy for him

Favorites are Charizard, Gengar, Gyarados, Jolteon.
Least favorites are Mr. Mime, Jynx, Hypno, and Exeggcute.
>>26459928
I still have Red Blue and Yellow, I'm currently playing Yellow on the VC.
I wish I still had my old save files. The batteries didn't die, but I just reset all the time as a kid because I'd get bored.

Oh I forgot about Mr. Mime. Fuck that guy
>>26459989
Favorite is the mime
Least favorite is jynx
Anyone teach HM04 Strength to their starter or one of their other main bros in RBY?
