clearly he had Alakazam carry the team

woah... so this .... is the power... of the new kanto champion....!

>>339927420
He has the power of nothingness. With his clear and determined minds, Exeggutor will surly grasp victory.
>>
>>339926742
So is the E4 actually beatable with this team? I assume Blastoise would be doing most of the work and would require some Ether to refill Blizzard

Flint's no better as a fire type trainer.

man I love D&P but man did they fuck up on the pokemon selection.
Flint in the Elite Four was worse, iirc he had like two steelixs and a lopunny

>>339927642
Honestly gym leaders should stick less to a specific type.
>>
>>339927784
Worst, he's a E4 member.

>>339927818
D&P in general was a fuck up. The only good thing it led to was Platinum which is the best gen 4 game

>>339926742
Al least he used ONE TM for Blastoise

To be fair, those are like, the only two fire types that exist in that region. I vaguely remember catching a Houndour, but I think that was apart of the 'Swarm' mechanic they introduced.

I actually imagine alakazam would be doing the heavy lifting

Honestly, that line made me shit my pants as a kid.

could be decent if the game had a decent AI. going in an electric gym with anty electric mons and ending up against that baton passed octillery could be a major pain in the ass.

It's mind blowing that it's baby mode for the entire game.

And those gwnwun sprites look nothing like Sugimori's art. Post Blastoise, just to be sure.

They're very accurate considering it was featured on a 10 year old gaming platform which was weaker than an NES.

No they aren't. Gen 2 sprites and most Yellow sprites are mostly not horribly deformed monstrosities despite being the same size. RBG are just shitty.

Getting things to look nice on the Gameboy was a massive strain and required a budget, which the original game didn't have.
>>
>>339926742
Everyone knows his canon starter is Venusaur, dumbass

>>339934083
Your mom's canon starter is Venusaur

>>339933706
>this goalpost shifting
So first they look good for the Gameboy (they don't) and somehow this statement is now invalid because of the game's budget? It doesn't matter why they look like shit because the bottom line is that they are still not good sprites and the vast majority of them do not represent Sugimori's art very well.
>>
>>339934634
You're pretty slow. It takes a budget because you can't just port a .jpg onto the gameboy and have it not look like complete ass, they most likely had to draw each sprite which is a massive fucking undertaking for a game nobody had any faith in. Eat shit and die, stop wasting my time.
>>
>>339931825
?????
They look nothing like the art
>>
>>339934860
Are you retarded? I'm not saying it isn't understandable the sprites are shit, but the initial argument was that they look good for the platform which they don't. You can rationalize it any way you want but Pokémon does not have impressive sprite work by any stretch of the imagination. You'te making two completely different claims here and you're too dumb to realize that one contradicts the other.
>>
>>339934860
Just stop.
Gen 1 was awful.

>muh 151 only

What's worse? Genwunner pokemon players or genwunner yugioh players?

Again, eat shit and die, stop wasting my time.

>>339935176
If I had to pick it's the person who kicked off "genwunner" as a term. Literal playground tier name calling.
Pokemonfags < Yugiohfags though.
>>
>>339935272
This entire board is dedicated to playground tier name calling, people unironically get into console wars now.
>>
>>339935229
Are you just pretending to be retarded? I refuse to believe someone is this dumb.

You can't say the sprites are shit because of budget while maintaining the position that they're good.

If you don't get it by now you're clearly a 12 year old who thinks he's le ebin troll for pretending to be retarded or a 12 year old with an IQ in the single digits.

Genwunner Pokemon players by a country mile. At least Yugioh players have a point about the power creep. Genwunner Pokemon players do nothing but bitch and end up making the fucking devs themselves think that they're the actual fanbase and fill a game with pandering to them when they probably won't even buy it.

Fuck Pokemon genwunners.

Honestly I wish theme gyms were a thing, it's so boring and easy when the gym leader and E4 only has one type of pokemon.
>>
>>339936778
It's funny how hard he fucks up Rhyhorn when he and Golem are the kings of gen 1 because Rock/Ground is a god tier typing in gen 1
>>
Gen 2 Ghost Gym is the best
> All the pokemons in gym are Gengar or its evolutions
> Gen did introduce one new ghost pokemon, that was version exclusive and not available until endgame
> Gym Boss has the same pokemons as the rest of trainers
> No dark type pokemons available until after the gym
> The HM is literally given to you after you walk out of the gym
>>
>>339936884
lol? they're only on teams to counter tauros/persian. Psychic is the undisputed king of gen 1 to the point that gen 2 introduced 2 new types to counter it
>>
>>339937035
You forgot that you don't even fight that one ghost Pokemon in the gym.

And i don't want to be that guy but you can get Gastly way before that gym jot like it has any damaging non-fixed ghost moves outside Lick anyway and quite a few Pokemon could learn Bite, Pursuit and Feint Attack.
