The first time I ever played Red, the first Pokemon I encountered in the Virdian Forest was Pikachu, in the grass patch at the very entrance. For some reason, I thought they could only be caught there.

To this day, I still catch a Pikechu in that patch every time I plat.

>>278200871
I wish there'd been more cases like Pikachu. It was cool that it was fairly rare and took some time to get, but gave you a neat pokemon. For the most part areas didn't really have anything interesting. Being able to get an early fighting pokemon with mankey was cool too.

Back in the day you just sand attacked onyx till it couldn't hit the broad side of a barn then tackled it for the next 35 minutes.

After that you generally got good dint pick fedorazard and/or took butterfree to the fight.

See, but that's exactly how a fedora thinks. I'm guessing you angry scrunched up your trilby before typing that.

Normal human beings would just pick whatever looked coolest, which 99% of the time is the Fire starter.

Water is generally for the non-fedora nerds and women.
>>
>>278201335
Gen 1 doesn't have genders.
No, you have a one in error chance to get a female starter at any given time, be it game start or during breeding.
>>
>>278201335
No, they can be any gender, but starters have a low chance of being female so most of the time you'll get a male.

Gender in the first two gens is determined by the Attack IV. Any starter you get in Gen I could end up being female when traded to Gen II if its Attack IV is low enough, but again, starters have a low chance of being female.
>>
>>278201335
They're more likely to share your gender, yes.
>>
>>278200716
This man knows his shit.
>>
>>278201335

Starters have a 12.5% of being female regardless of your trainer's gender.

Gen 1 didn't have genders (outside of Nidoran)

You never actually argued anything and I wasn't the anon who said ayylamo

I stated that gen 2 is the only one to feel like a sequel (which is true) since it built on the main game and gave you a whole new area to explore with a bunch of new gyms and pokemon while also giving you access to the first area

I found a copy of the game when I was still new to it at a friends house and they only had Charmander and Pidgey and were saved at the Gym entrance.

Felt so good beating Onyx with Pidgey with 1 HP remaining.

Feraligator is still one of my favorite Pokemon overall, I'm partial to water types overall. But he had a shit move set. Samurott would have been great if he stayed bipedal, and his stats were better. Nigga had sword dance, x scissor, mega horn. If he had a good attack stat he would have been a beast.

My uncle gave me a gameboy color with his pokemon games and gave it to be as a birthday present, everyone born in the mid 90s has seen and was introduced to pokemon with gen 1.

Hell the day before my graduation we blasted the original pokemon theme song in the cafeteria and everyone sang along.

Your family sounds like one collective hive mind if autism
>>
>>278204716
Not him but in the first game, you got Gary Fucking Oak and his ego and being first at everything is what drives you to beat him in the finale. Gold and Silver had that red hair I name Faggot and he was a fucking cock. Eventually, we get to see him change and becoming more of a character that cares for his pokemon instead of seeing them as a tool.

In the 3rd gen, you got some wimpying green hair nobody that you hardly see in the game and that child in the first town that doesn't even act like your rival but your annoying friend.

Boys picked Charmander, girls picked Squirtle.

Vensaur's a good pokemon but the people that picked him relatively knew how pokemon WORKED. If they picked Bulbasaur, it's probably based on the fact that he easily rapes the early game. Naturally these same children know how to teach Jolteon pin missile or whatever to handle Sabrina.

Don't try to lump in the rest of us with you stupid faggots who tried to use Ember on Brock.

>Kids who pick Totodile
Born strategist. Knows his shit with Pokemon, and intends on showing it. This kid is the top of the food chain, intends on beating the game as fast and efficiently as possible.

>Kids who pick Chikorita
Hardcore motherfuckers who enjoy a challenge. They know they're gonna get their shit kicked in when it's easiest to do so, and they intend on showing just why you shouldn't try to challenge them.

>Kids of pick Cyndaquil
Literal retards. Want an easymode win at the second gym, and then laugh at any other starter, claiming to be superior in both skill, and style. Only kept alive by the other kids out of pity.

>inb4 b-but Cyndaquil is the easy mode
Good luck with Lance who gets literally anally blasted single-handedly by a Feraligatr with an ice move and good job not counting Kanto.
