By the time you catch Tauros, Red and Blue 2 will be out KEK

these are all me what the fuck

>>57975761
Back in the day, people weren’t overconsuming slobs. Getting every single game was basically unheard of because knew that was pathetic

>>57975759
idk anon I think I chose good :3

>>57975759
>Bulbasaur
Objective best choice for the first two gyms
>Chikorita
Based Hard-mode mon
>Mudkip
Objectively best choice
>Turtwig
Only non jobmon in his gen
>Oshawott

>Popplio
Primarina sex
>Grookey
Only non jobmon in his gen
>Quaxly

>he actually chose "Sapphire"

KEK what a faggy kid!

>>57975759
>Popplio
This isn't 2016 anymore. Primarina is the most popular now

>>57975756 (OP)
Blue has Blastoise on the cover Red just has lame lizard

>>57975759
>bulbasaur
respectable if contrarian
>chikorita

>mudkip

>turtwig

>chespin
kinda lame but still better than braishit
>popplio

>grookey
based monke
>quaxly
true

>>57976971
>bulbasaur
It's the fastest way to get Toxic + Leech Seed, which absolutely WRECKS in Gen 1, if unintentionally.

>>57977039
In the time it takes you knock out something with toxic leech seed, you could have brought down two pokemon with body slam.

>>57976641
>Only non jobmon in his gen
Has a drum stuck on its ass, somehow not a jobmon

>>57977116
It takes you less than 4 turns to knock down two Pokemon?

Baskin Roberts Trust Fund Band!

>>57975759
>he doesn't throw away his starter
ngmi

>>57975759
almost but I'd never pick tepig

>>57977248
with body slam yes. you can one-shost most things in gen 1 so it usually takes only two turns to take down two pokemon

>>57975759
Bulbasaur and Chikorita are high test choices

>>57975756 (OP)
>notnwanting vulpix
U fool

>>57975756 (OP)
I would've picked Blue, but it was sold out

>>57975759
Those were my favorite, yes.

>>57976012
Wow, I didn't expect anyone to admit that his whole school was poor. Did you have to share textbooks too? Every kid I knew that played Pokemon had at least two of the games.

>>57975756 (OP)
>That one kid that has his favorite starter from the 6th to 9th gen

>>57978967
how's your transition going, sister?

>>57979038
I too love telling lies on the internet

>>57975759
>Fire is the only worst choice once
Another reason it’s the best starter type

>>57979098
Anon, the games cost 30 dollars when they released. It isn't ludicrous, unbelievable overconsumption to own more than one cheap toy. I feel sorry for you if your parents couldn't afford to buy you things like that.

>>57976422
Blue clears so hard its not even funny.

>>57975756 (OP)
Burns go to church?

>teach blastoise ice beam or blizzard
>teach venusaur swords dance and hyper beam/body slam

gg2ez

>>57976422
>Red has Primeape and Scyther
>Blue has Ninetales and Sandslash
The impossible choice

>>57979180
>>57979289
Red to its credit has a higher chance of getting nidoran male on route 22

>>57979166
it's not about money, it's about looking like a dork.
you weren't actually there but I guarantee you that if you told your friends that you bought both pokémon games to get every exclusive you would get massively mocked for being an ultra nerd.

>only using your starter
VS
>equally trained team of 6
Which did you do anon?

>>57979146
if you like boring cartoon animals with an element tacked on, sure

>>57979321
neither.
I caught new pokémon and switched them around like you're meant to do.

>>57976767
Why?

>>57977610
Toxic +Leech seed is a meme, Venu gets swords dance + body slam

>>57979316
You would be a God, just like the kids with gamesharks. Pokemon was cool af during pokemania.

>>57979316
What sort of crab bucket shithole did you grow up in? Where I was, having the most Game Boy accessories was a shortcut to the top of the social hierarchy. Everyone thought it was really cool if you had rare Pokemon cards, everyone wanted Pokemon shirts and baseball caps and board game and all the other useless Pokemon-branded junk that was popular at the time. The kids who only had one of the games looked up to the kids with two and begged their parents every time they went anywhere near somewhere that sold games The kids with two wanted to go round to Billy's house every weekend because he had Stadium. Billy idolized his older cousin from the next town over who taught him a cool glitch. I don't know why the people around you during your childhood were so bitter and joyless that they'd mock and bully someone for having more toys than they did, or why you grew up in the only place in the world where kids didn't adore all things Pokemon. I don't know why this state of affairs cemented itself into your mind so much that all these years later, you can't bring yourself to believe that some people actually had fun during Pokemon's early years. I feel sorry for you, I was more or less joking about people being too poor to afford more than one video game, I didn't even imagine that there were people out there sad and mentally impoverished enough to despise the very concept of kids immersing themselves in a new craze.

>being this defensive about being called a dweeb
Kek what a sensitive little bitch

>>57979381
This is true. That anon who had both would be bullied for being a pussy though.

>>57975756 (OP)
When I told my mom to buy me a Pokemon title (I specified Red), she couldn't remember which one I said so she just bought me both (keep in mind we were poor). Shit was so cash.

>>57975756 (OP)
Bump

>>57975759
Squirtle, Totodile, Torchic, Turtwig, Oshawott, Snivy, Fennekin, Popplio, Grookey, Fuecoco
4 out of 9 and I do not fucking care

>>57979598
tl;dr
buying 2 of the same game with slightly different pokemon in it is something only a massive autist would do and you would get made fun of for it (rightfully), he's right
trying to call people poor over it is like saying people only make fun of furries because they can't afford a suit, just retarded and cope

>>57975759
stop laughing at me!!!

>>57975759
Bulbasuar, Mudkip, and Turtwig are good starters. I don't like grookey/rillaboomer but I prefer it over shitderace and inceleon.

>>57975756 (OP)
You know that the red and blue that got released outside of Japan were actually RGB mixed, right?

>>57983028
I don't remember pokemon purple coming out, schizo

>>57983044
I'm not sure if you are actually retarded, trolling, or in denial

Elements from Red, Green and Blue, which were all already out in Japan, were used to make the international versions of Red and Blue.
Choosing either means you got parts of the real Blue. The only safe choices are Japanese Red or Green.

>>57983088
>I'm not sure if you are actually retarded, trolling, or in denial

>>57975759
fire is always the best starter, zones are always full of grass types pokemon in high grass or water pokemon in the surf areas or with rods and fire mons are the rarest to get

>>57983099
>he doesn't pick the starter exclusively based on the design of the final mon

>>57979598
>>57979381
seems like you lived in Nerd Land. let me guess: you only started drinking past 21 lol

>>57976767
She was always the most popular of the final forms.
>>57979343
Because the other two are stupid in some way or the other, while the only problem with Primarina is the gender ratio.
