Thread: Theory of life. Does it ever naw at you?

I have a Mew and Jirachi in Firered. I stole all of my cousin's legendary pokemon, including the Regi guys, Deoxy, and all those guys. But he found out and made me give them back. I somewhat had Mew and Jirachi leftover. I think I gave him a good one of mine in return.
I quit playing. I think it's lame you gotta have both games to catch all of them, and even then, you can't do it.

I used to level up all my Pokemon to 40 or 50 (they're in my box) and just switch out. Just fight the Elite Four, Exp share that mofo, and switch out before he dies.

PLAY THE GAME WITH ONLY BIDOOFS!

I did that with a Bidoof called Ninja, but the game got boring really fast.

Diamond, Pearl and Platinum made me go off Pokemon. There were too many Pokemon that even now I still can not get used to, even though people said that I would become familiar with them. Black and White are going to drive me further away.

An Eevee evolves into an Umbreon through training during the night time. The Eevee must trust you a lot, as it is a Pokemon that evolves when it becomes happy through not fainting, use of items (excluding bitter herbs) and items that boost the level of happiness, such as the Soothe Bell.

It's the same thing that happens with most things these days. TV shows, video games, hell I wouldn't be surprised if L4D soon goes that way. They start out awesome, sequels get released and then they just get milked to absolute death. Pokemon red/blue/yellow were great, and I liked Gold/Silver/Crystal too. But after that it just becomes silly, it's no wonder people lose interest and move onto something else, and so the cycle continues... Good ideas turn into festering crap until there is no more market for it. Sad really.

God I sound like such a nerd....

There was one guy in our school who was the only guy I couldn't beat, who had a "gifted" Mewtwo. About 430 HP, absolutely fucking indestructable. He also had a Golem and other equally awesome beasts. I think I managed to beat everyone else though, my Mewtwo knew selfdestruct, which no Lvl 100 Pokemon ever survived It was quite funny watching the animation of the attack and then waiting an age for the enemy's health bar to slowly drain to 0. Epic.

Gave it all away sadly when I was in college and in desperate need of cash, but I have some of the classic Pokemon game ROMs and an emulator, just no motivation to get back into it.

"Gifted" as in obtained, modified or trained through cheats?

Anyway, I have a Silver Rom but also the actual GBA game Silver. I do like to experiment using cheats strictly ingame and just speed up the pace. Those games can go way too slow sometimes. I get a rom of a game if I either have the game already (to make an alternate file for amusement) or if I want to have a demo of something before I get the actual game.

Off that topic,

Pryce completely wiped four of my Nuzlocke team out. He took Nidoking, Electrode, Quagsire and my Beedrill down with it, and almost my Miltank.

...He left me to catch a Lapras with a Caterpie and Miltank.
I survived it but it has put me in a pretty difficult position.
(But an entertaining one!)
