>the games were even easier back in the day
when was the last time your rival popped up after a fucking hell of a fight to finish you off since gen 1? Right after you make it through mt moon for the first time DICKS is standing there with his cock in his hand waiting for you, and right near the end of the SS Anne that bastard is the last trainer you fight! There were tons of endurance tests in gen 1 that your team had to hurdle. Those have been gone from the game for a long time.

it's not exposition but this reminded me of the pre-battle cutscene for Yveltal

It's a short and simple cutscene, not even interactable gameplay but it was probably the most memorable moment in Y for me. Yveltal is presented as fucking menacing and lives up to all the hype a legendary Pokemon deserves.

Went all Gen 1, and Gold and Silver. Parents wouldn't justify getting Crystal.

Ruby and Sapphire came out in middle school so they were "gay" and I didn't get them. Wasn't interested in DP at all.

Got back in for Gen 5 with Whtie because I wanted the big nig and haven't looked back. Glad I got back into it.

If you're playing with a pal and intending on catching em all, yellow doesn't work. yellow plus blue doesn't give you all of the pokemons, and neither does yellow plus red.

He doesn't show up after you get out of Mt. Moon or Rock Tunnel though. The Cerulean fight before Nugget Bridge is a surprise but there's no reason for you to go to Nugget Bridge when the fucking Pokemon Center is right there.

SS Anne is the only real blindside fight with Blue. Maybe Silph Co too, I think he kind of shows up out of nowhere there.

I had played Pokemon Red when it came out as a kid and then didn't play any other Pokemon until Soul Silver.
The nostalgia pangs in that entire region were already strong, but this fight, especially the music, was too intense for me and I had goosebumps.
It was done extremely well and I hope there's another Pokemon with as much extra content as SS/HG again, but I remain doubtful.

Isn't even a rom-hack. That is the best part. This is running from a legit pokemon blue Cartridge.
The games are literally so broken, there's a glitch item that you can use to rewrite your memory.

Thus, you can program your own instructions and then save them into the SRAM, so they persist after saving.
So for example, if you're ever planning to sell your old Pokemon game, you could program it to leave a creepy surprise for the person who purchases your game.
