Was anyone else not at all upset over this? To be fair Pokemon

I wasn't because I didn't do the trade because I had a strategy guide.

I wasn't because I was actually old enough to read up on things at that point and didn't even do the trade in the first place.

I really enjoyed this moment desu. It taught an item's mechanic and was overall pretty comical.

Never played gen4, what's the gimmick behind this?

>>32956448
its holding an everstone

>>32956448
The Haunter is holding an Everstone so when you trade it, it doesn't evolve.

>He doesn't appreciate the beauty that is Gen 4

>>32956486
I don't think that's the problem.

More likely, they're the type of person that can't accept that people they once saw as children are now adults as well.

I don't get it. She told you she wanted to trade her Haunter in the first place, not a Gengar.

>>32956949
Because many Gen 1 players know that upon receiving a Haunter through a trade, it will immediately evolve. Since the Haunter didn't evolve due to the Everstone the girl gave it, and her comment afterwards, some players were pissed.

SOME PEOPLE have been saying to themselves and their schoolyard chums for decades that in-game traders need to exist for certain pokemon.
