Holy shit this

Old games don't just have to be gen 1.
>>
>>31077413
most starters learned elmental moves before l10, though
the only one that doesnt in active memory is bulbasaur because he gets leech seed before vine whip

In generation 2 Totodile and Cyndaquil didn't get their elemental move until after 10.

I can hear the Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga Battle music in my head.

New box wallpapers. Gen 7 is the only game since gen 2 without them available in any way.

on one hand, I feel like it would be invalidated by Pokemon Refresh.

On the otherhand, by that logic: paralysis and other status effects carrying over from a previous battle might as well be removed then.

So, come on, encourage to crack open refresh a bit more, Game Freak.

Hell, if it's that much trouble, it might be nice to feed my pokemon more than just beans or a generic cure-all. Let us apply items to them in refresh and all that.

>>31077378
You're right on the second.
The first one though just felt tedious, the moments where you had to rely on tackle and its variants were terrible imo.
>>
>>31079039
Found the scrub who doesn't even play online, and you can just decide to not use them more than once if you're that autistic.
>>
Death from poisoning just happened in viridian forest, dont lie.

Had it been retained in Gen 5-7 it would be pointless because there is like a healing NPC in every few steps.

>get TM you cant buy in any way

>Totodile
Looking back I felt it was ironic that the only move you'll learn till lv 13 is Rage, because I was sure pissed with the shit movepool. By the time I got to lv 13 I was so thankful for a new move, and then I realized that Totodile line was physical based and it was pre phy/spe split which meant water attacks were terrible for physical water types. Also if you didn't teach it surf or whirl pool then it wouldn't learn a new water move until 52 which would be by the 8th gym.
>>
>>31079834
If you evenly leveled your team you wouldn't be 52 until some point in Kanto.
>>
>>31079267
I would say anything pre mt.moon. I had the bad experience of being poisoned by the super nerd that you get the fossil from and poisoned by his koffing and grimer. Then blacking out before I could get to the pokecenter.
>>
>>31077434
Christ that made me laugh. I love Gen 5 but the sprites are a definite flaw of the games.
>>
>>31079834
>52
>8th gym
Nigga what?
>>
>>31079917
I tended to always play favorites for the first II gens. Starting gen III, I took more consideration into what I was actually doing. At best I would only have two or three high leveled pokemon on the team.
>>
>>31080019
It's easy if you abandon any type of strategy or type match up and just hit everything until it's dead. I used to be that kid that would have an over leveled starter, a normal leveled pokemon, then the rest of the team were horribly under leveled.

>>31079039
gen 6 is legit hard without exp share on, there are some hard ass npc battles
