I can't because the first gen games only have one save file and I don't want to overwrite my file with surfing pikachu because it was a lot of fucking trouble to grind mewtwo up so he could solo clear all of pokemon stadium twice to carry pikachu through round 2 prime cup. I'm also a buyfag, so I don't know how to get it other than from the virtual console, which I can't do because I haven't owned a nintendo console since the gamecube because I used to have standards. Ironically, I'm enjoying the new phone game. I guess I became a casual shitlord as I aged.

Ok so the games are purely up to opinion for the most part, aside from stuff like Pt > D/P and Emerald > Ruby/Sapphire, but can we at least agree that Gen 5 has by FAR the worst Pokemon designs on average?

People complain about 2 4 and 6 but I don't think it's even a competition. And I'm not even going to meme THERE'S A TRASH POKEMON OMG LOL, they're almost all awful.

The sole thing BW2 has better is Pokemon World Tournament. B and White's battle system is ugly as fuck, the music is shit, the story is shit, Kyurem is literally the worst legendary and the DNA splicing is to this day even dumber than Mega Evos.

I'd rather play a better game with less mons and moves than have to suffer through hours of awful garbage to get to the excellent nougaty center.
>>
>>345049008
>>345049456

I only beat Crystal once, so I don't really remember it, and I quit playing pokemon halfway through Ruby because I got bored. Do Gen II and Gen III have any moments as cool as the ghost marrowak in Lavendar Town, finding out Blue had already beaten the Elite Four, or the whole plotline with Mewtwo and the Master Ball? I know the later games drastically improved the battle system, but I really enjoyed the story elements and aesthetic of the first gen games. Sorry if that sounds fucking lame, feel free to call me genwunner or whatever, but I'm genuinely interested in how the noncombat elements of the later games hold up.
>>
>>345050208
There's about 10 truly excellent designs in gen 5 though.

As far as TRASH BAG LOL goes, nobody gives Gothitelle, Alomomola, or Basculin enough hate. Those are some of the worst pokemon designs of all time, bar none.

For every Volcarona there's 6 terrible ones. In fact, those 6 are specifically Zebstrika, Heatmor, Vullaby, Basculin, Excadrill and Emboar.

Basculin is one of the bottom 5 pokemon of all time, easily.

It's even more LITERALLY A FISH than Magikarp or Finneon, it's awful in both stats and movepool, it has 2 versions for no reason other than to say it does, and it's ALSO bottom 5 shinies, literally Garchomp tier.

Fuck Basculin. Inoffensive =/= good

From a visual, mechanical, presentational and accessible standpoint...no, B/R/Y are definitely the worst games in the series. Even though the story is better than most of the others, it cannot race with the others.

Heartgold/Soulsilver are generation 4, set in Johto/Kanto, has all the pokemon you know and love, all the trainers you know and love, all the metagame at its peak complexity, and is easily the best visually and mechanically.

I disagree completely. I think Platinum, Emerald, and BW2 are all better than HGSS, and that's saying something since Emerald is borked on a fundamental level.

I think it's just that Gen 2 was your favorite and so the remakes are the best for you. Unless you just really get off on Pokemon following you around, there's nothing about HG/SS that is particularly great.

Also the Red battle remix was trash

Should be up now. Are you in Europe? Sale is for Europe only.

Probably never. Getting R/B/Y was kind of necessary since it now allows you to play every region and transfer pokemon from them on 3DS, whereas before with it and OR/AS you could only do it if you also had a DS so you could use GBA games and transfer from them.

>>345052132
For some reason, Nintendo is refusing to release GBA games on 3DS, even though the Ambassador program gave a number of them out for free. Apparently it's way more difficult to get it working for 3DS whereas it's far easier to do it with the Wii U.

No they do not "hold up." You should play FireRed/LeafGreen for the Generation 1 story.

It's nowhere near as bad as everyone makes it out to be, I fell for the /vp/ "gen 1 is irredeemable shit" meme until the VC release actually came out and I realized the games play pretty fine still, the majority of the issues brought up in the "gen 1 sucks" image matter more for competitive balance than anything else. Young children in the 90's played the game with no issues other than dumb kids fucking their games up by catching Missingno, you can play it just fine as long as you treat it like an 8-bit RPG that got really popular and not something greater.

Except that it's played on your television screen at a fixed resolution instead of on a Gameboy. You're right, the glitches, the broken mechanics and the aesthetic (aside from several dozen moves changed to not flash the whole screen) is the same. And among all the pokemon main titles, it is by far the worst to play. Its age shows.

And why play it when FireRed/LeafGreen exists anyway?

Finally, don't sound off at me, kiddo. I bought Red when I was living on Kadena AFB, Okinawa, Japan when I was 10. I played the absolute Hell outta that game and loved it. Hundreds of hours. Collected the cards, JAPANESE ONES, TOO.

I highly disagree. B/W in my opinion should be experienced and it should be experienced blind. They take away all the pokemon that are in your comfort zone and force you to adapt and make new pals rather than just use the same ones you've been using for the past 4 generations.

He wanted to play the originals, might as well let him give it a shot if he's curious. The remakes are better of course but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea to try out the originals if one is interested.

We're talking about Gen II, stay focused. And BST doesn't mean shit if you don't have a proper typing and movepool to back it up. If they really wanted to push Kanto, they'd add more to it than keeping it the same as it was. It only shows you can't do a multi-region game, period.

Dude, Gold/Silver had the entire content of it's own game, Johto, and you spend 20 hours beating it. Then, all of a sudden, the game says "haha! Congrats! But did ya know? You can REVISIT KANTO, BEAT ALL THE GYMS AND THEIR ELITE FOUR AND ALSO FIND RED AND FIGHT HIM, TOO? Oh and get all the gen 1 pokemon while you're at it!" And then! HeartGold/SoulSilver came along and upgraded everything in everyway.

You're just foul about this for some reason. It's not even my favorite, but there's no denying it's the best pokemon game in the main series.
