sso DS people.

If you wanna duke it out on the originals, you'd have to organize your own event. Then bring your gameboy advances (you could go wireless or cabled up to 4 people) and weapon of choice!
 
wow. 20 year olds? holy shit. talk about never getting laid or even seeing a pair of tits, jesus
 
That's what porn is for. I'd travel the world and play pokemon if I had the chance. Girls can wait. Plus they gotta be making some dough.
 
Holy shit, I went to middle school in Carnation.

Wolfe Glick though, the 15 year old USA Master. Quite a name.
 
I could smack the fuck out of every single one of those pussys. I have a team that is better than any team, completely EV and IV trained to the max.
 
It took me about 8 months to assemble my team completely, I'll break it down:

2 months of planning out the team

1 month of gathering supplies (I was 10 when I did this, I had about $40 to my name and had to get money to buy an action replay, and a new Gameboy.)

2 months of programming the team and testing it in-game using the AR and Pokesav.

Then once I had the raw team (not legit) was complete, I began creating the actual team in-game. This is obviously the hardest part, I had to change a few things in my initial plan in-order to make the team more effective, but it eventually came together and was incredibly succesful. Mind you I was on a Gameboy Advance SP so I never had the option of testing it online which was a bit of a downer seeing as it had incredible potential and I was able to create it while in school (like 4th grade......and also maintaining a social life (I went hard in 4th grade)).
 
Holy shit! Going ham on pokemon. Which version were you using? Mind you I was also 10 away from completing the sapphire version pokedex legitimately. Just couldn't/didn't want to finish.
 
I was using Blue, it was the better version to use IMO seeing as the only defined Pokemon that was not available was Arcanine which was easily solveble by choosing Charmander as a starter, if I had had access to Yellow the team could've been even better seeing as you can acquire all three starters as well as Pikachu.
 
I don't think you understand how much more simple battle strategies in the first generation games were compared to the newer games...
 
I don't think the Pokemon in the new games such as B&W are original. Don't think I haven't also beaten HG, SS, DP, P, Platinum, and B&W as well. Yes, I did beat each of the games from each generation. I just haven't had the same interest in the less orignal games. (Aside from HG and SS seeing as those are re-makes and make me nostalgia like no other.)

However with the newer movesets the games have become more entertaining, I just don't find as much challenge and the bosses are too predictable.
 
Because we're used to them. Although the Elite Four in White was actually pretty difficult. Took me a few goes to get it done.
 
New and more technical moves, the stats have been modified, there are more trading possibilities with the DS, new Pokemon have been introduced. etc.
 
Have you ever spent 2 hours walking around in the same patch of grass looking for the lowest leveled pokemon with a specific nature? I know I have, never again.
 
i bet you would be aLLLLL OVER HIM,

and i think there needs to be a mmo pokemon game that shit would be awesome, even me being 20 i would have to play that game.
