So what did HGSS exclude that was in Crystal? I have a feeling we aren't treating HGSS with the same criteria we're treating ORAS with
>>25774126
Well, we didn't get the Odd Egg from the daycare man
>>25774126
KRIS
fuck
>>25774146
this was the first thought that came to mind.
Pretty much everything that was in Crystal was either included or replaced by something with equal or greater value
>>25774146
That was replaced by the Pokemon Club egg codes
>>25774126
We can't get Teddiursa or Phanpy before the first gym
For this alone Crystal > HGSS
>>25774126
>I have a feeling we aren't treating HGSS with the same criteria we're treating ORAS with
Probably because the remakes are the opposite of complete rushjobs that failed to meet even the lowest of expectations.
>>25774126
>I have a feeling we aren't treating HGSS with the same criteria we're treating ORAS with
butthurt hoennbaby detected.
>>25774177
>literally have a phanpy
Playing Storm Silver rocks
>>25774201
I tried the Gold version of that
Finding out some pokemon have new abilities was very disappointing
>>25774215
>Finding out some pokemon have new abilities was very disappointing
Why?
>>25774183
This. There's a reason why people were expecting BF to come back in ORAS.
GF even knew people were expecting it, otherwise pic related wouldn't have happened
>>25774215
> The Classic version includes most changes but excludes any changes made directly to Pokémon (stats, types, TM compatibility, level up move changes etc). It's the same idea as BB/VW's Clean version.
>>25774220
I just don't like getting used to Shed Skin Krabby when I know I won't be able to use one in an official game
>>25774264
> when I know I won't be able to use one in an official game
But you can? Not competitively but you can still use them.
>>25774264
I felt the same way about Bug/Water Masquerain.
It's to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all.
>>25774126
Having phanpy be a end game pokemon.
>Route 45 instead of 46
>>25774500
>tfw they swapped Phanphy and Teddiursa's exclusivity for no reason
Made me pretty mad to be honest, I still don't understand why. Phanphy was my little nigga in Silver, I was pissed he was Heart Gold exclusive.
>>25774242
God this was such a slap in the face, all the references to the battle frontier in those games were, Masuda has stated they have had no intention of including it because its too overwhelming for younger fans, but I will still be pretty damn salty if the BF isnt in Sun and Moon after ORAS brought it up so much.
>>25774651
>ever trusting interviews
They're not the truth, they're advertisements.
>>25774651
I'm just hoping they were bullshitting and the real reason was that they didn't have time
>>25774139
heh
>>25774545
The better question is why they switched them in the Western versions of G/S, because all versions of HG/SS use the original Japanese exclusivity for those two.
>>25774748
Huh, I had no idea. Not that I would've anyways.
I guess I'm less mad now, but I'm still a little mad.
>>25774167
>Pokemon Club egg codes
what?
>>25775056
There's a guy in Violet City's Pokemon center that gives you an egg depending on what passcode you give him.
Filb.de has a generator for it that still works
>>25775081
>Filb.de
the generator just says it gives wallpapers
but thats cool to know
i never knew it was a thing
>>25774242
This.
That model was like rubbing salt into the wound because "ayye we're lazy". I just wanted to use the Battle Pike with newer Pokemon.
>>25775095
There's another generator for eggs somewhere. I used it ages ago, so it existed.
>>25775081
>>25775095
It does, but for HGSS they also give you the code for the eggs
>>25775095
>>25775122
It shows the eggs when you input a trainer ID
>>25774183
This.
>>25774126
It excluded nothing of significance compared to the numerous things ORAS did.
>>25774126
Off the top of my head:
1. No Teddiursa/Phanpy/Growlithe before the first gym
2. No Pichu/Magby/Elekid/Smoochum/etc from the Day Care Man
3. No battle tower
>>25775202
HG/SS had a battle tower along with the rest of Sinnoh's BF
>>25775202
>3. No battle tower
It had the entire fucking Battle Frontier, retard.
>tfw you never play again in the pokeathlon
>>25775202
>3. No battle tower
the battle twer was inside battlefrontier
>>25775221
>>25775239
>>25775286
Youre right.
That still doesn't forgive 1 & 2
>>25775310
>That still doesn't forgive 1 & 2
It doesn't, but it's not too big of a deal. HGSS didn't have trading restrictions like FRLG did, so you could at least grab one of those from DPPt.
>There are people posting on /vp/ RIGHT NOW who haven't even played best girl's game
>>25775344
I did, though.FR/LGwas great.
>>25775344
I did, and I even hacked ORAS so I could play as her again
>>25775269
Good riddance.
>>25775478
easy there satan
HGSS are so hard to go back to after playing Storm Silver. There's just too many flaws that should have been fixed.
>>25775478
>there's no game in there
kek
>>25776940
Missing the infinite TMs though. Currently in Whitney's gym. Also miss the cheat that refills my entire party on a button press.
My biggest gripe with ORAS wasn't the lack of battle frontier or the reworked Mallville, but the inclusion of Fairy types. Fuck, I can't even play the remake of my favorite gen without dealing with that bullshit.
>>25777500
If I could
>>25777518
are you okay anon
>>25777520
could reach the end.
What's the best thing RSE had fixed in ORAS and why is it the mirage island system?
>>25777529
Infinite TMs
Playing the game vanilla from start with 999 devnax is the way to play the game in all honesty. It's a shame that the variety in mon, moves and abilities is post-game only.
>>25777529
>infinite TMs
>Devnax
>Fly as an item
>quickbar instead of quickkey
>Steven being too easy
Post game sucked, especially because the meta is in tatters and there's nothing to do because competitive is a joke. At least D/P/Pt had an actual post game. Battlezone is the best postgame of any gen except B2W2's post.
>>25777500
Do you have brain problems?
>>25777548
>>25777529
The game itself can be balanced, try Rising Ruby/Sinking Sapphire.
Emerald's story won't be restored. But all the QoL improvements are still nice.
>>25774651
>trusting Junichi "we want the smartphone audience" Masuda
kek
Voltorb flip was added, sadly.
>>25774126
What are some good niche mons to use in HGSS? I'm thinking about starting a new run
>>25774766
>>25774748
Only reason I can think of them swapping those two is that they both first appeared in the movies. I guess someone decided that kids that went to see the movie preferred Silver, and would likewise have seen the first movie and would want a Donphan.
>>25774264
Then just download Pokemon Perfect Silver/Gold
