How far the world has fallen. Now pokemon is full of literal trannies, jannies, and niggers.

The daycare assistant in Pokémon B/W and the beauty in the battle facility in Kalos.

>>58112506
Oh wait. There is a transmale character in an old Pokémon manga.Akari from the anthology series manga "How I Became a Pokémon Card", from 1999.

Unlike the other two, this one actually uses the term "onabe"

Uhh it's not meant to be seen as crying. For about 2 years we only had gen 1 in the US. The graphics will always be extremely charming to me and I'm glad I can always appreciate this game when I go back to it. It felt like such a long time back then and we were all in this little game boy world together. It was so awesome having a game boy game that wasn't some space shooter, basic 2d platformer, puzzle game, etc. It was the dream game for any system at the time and it seemed almost impossible that it was on game boy. Having a little world to explore and learn about and trying to become a pokemon master for the first time. It was so cool. I remember my friend in first grade telling me about pokemon and she drew some of them to show me and i was so excited to watch the show and my imagination ran wild. I wanted to see all the pokemon. She told me about Blastoise and i thought it was Blast Toys and I imagined an evil jack in the box that destroyed toys or something. Then she brought the game to school and showed me after school and it looked like the coolest shit ever. I only got to watch the opening cutscene at that time and her dad came to pick her up. So the gamefreak logo and nidorino fighting gengar was all I saw of the game at that time, but it looked awesome. Then I think the next day I was looking for the anime on TV in the morning before school and it happened to be the first episode. It was amazing and I stood up to get close to the TV and watch the credits roll, hoping someone in the credits had the same first name as me for some stupid little kid reason, and someone actually did. Then I saw my friend's oldest brother who was like 10 playing the game at a basketball game and I was amazed again. That was the first time i saw the actual gameplay and my mind was blown that you could walk around everywhere instead of just left and right like mario, the main character looked cool, and even the pause menu amazed me.

>>58113109
I think for a while I just watched the anime and got some cards. My oldest sister bought me my first pack and a pokemon shirt and I got a holographic Venusaur. But my friend's other older brother convinced me Wigglytuff was better so I traded it for that. I called in to some radio station that said you could talk to Santa and asked "Santa" for pokemon red, pokemon blue, pokemon yellow, and pokemon green and probably some other colors (I didn't even know if green existed, but I just assumed) and my parents were laughing and I got red and yellow with the special edition gameboy color for Christmas which was the best Christmas ever. I popped in Red first and couldnt escape the house but I was still extremely excited. Then I put in yellow and it was the same thing but i knew there had to be a way to get out and figured it out. At first I would run from all the pokemon because I was impatient/didn't know what i was doing and my cousin told me I should just keep fainting the wild pokemon I run into as I go so my pokemon would get experience and get stronger. Eventually I found out every kid I knew had the games and cards and we were all completely immersed in this game on a tiny gameboy screen. My friends and I would sit on the stairs quizzing each other on pokemon out of the unofficial pokemon handbook, and if you got a question right, you would go down a step, but if you got it wrong you would go up a step, and whoever got to the bottom of the stairs first won. I remember sitting with my friends looking at our cards and I wouldn't trade Charmander because he was so cute and I loved him. I told them "just look at it...i can't trade Charmander... he's so cute..." They were like "you have a full page of Charmanders..." and I think that convinced me to trade one because I was being stupid and selfish.

>>58113111
I remember my friend using a Master Ball on a Dewgong because he thought it looked like a rare powerful Pokemon, and him telling me about going to Toys R Us to get traded a mew from an event. He also stayed home sick from school one day and hid under the bed playing Pokemon Blue on the n64 Pokemon Stadium transfer pak and his mom caught him because she could obviously see the game on the TV and laughed at him. I remember sitting on my mom's lap and it was bed time, but I had to beat Koga first while she watched. I remember accidentally finding missingno and then looking for him again for hours because i thought it was just a really rare spawn and had no idea what happened. When I finally got to Mewtwo, I beat him, saved immediately and felt accomplished that I beat the strongest pokemon in the game. I didn't even think about catching him. Then I had to restart the game because I couldn't get Mewtwo. There was also a time when I turned on my game and there was no continue button and I cried and sadly restarted again. I didn't know at that time that just resetting the game again would probably fix it. My neighbor came over to my house just to show me a holographic Vileplume he got and I was so jealous and it looked like a really good pokemon. There were pokemon pop tarts, pokemon fruit roll ups, pokemon cereal, pokemon board games. Some of them would even come with some shitty card sometimes. I remember my friend telling me he saw the pokemon movie in theaters and somehow I didnt even know about it, then I got the first movie on VHS. We were so dumb but it was a magical time.

>When I finally got to Mewtwo, I beat him, saved immediately and felt accomplished that I beat the strongest pokemon in the game.
That's one of the parts of early game design I don't miss. Had a similar experience with moltres. Some kind of warning that there's no 2nd attempt so you should make sure you had balls and save before would've been great for all of us to avoid that pain. We were kids and it's not like we all had several prior games to know this stuff from already, it was literally the 1st set of games in the series and even if you were familiar with rpgs it's not like you ever had a reason to want to fight a boss again after you won. I don't like them just handing you the legendaries in the newer games - finding, fighting, and catching them for yourself is what makes them special, you just shouldn't get permanently screwed for not looking every detail up in advance or only knowing what the game actually explained on a 1st playthrough.

As much time as I spent in lavender town it was always Johto that stuck with me. That little bit of extra detail and color brought so much life, and the music was the audio equivlant of a warm blanket on a cool winter night. I might be from kanto, but Goldenrod is where I'd hang my hat.

>>58113413
There's always your small group of contrarian Johto bashers, but GSC mogged nearly every GBC game combined in quality. What else remotely compared? The last Wario Land? The Zelda Oracles?

>>58112185 (OP)
Ah yes, the incredibly unbalanced and glitchy generation!
And last generation is the epitome of KANTOOOO pandering as it is also incredibly unbalanced and glitchy too!

Thank you, couldn't for the life of me remember where this was for a second. The position of the player makes it look like there wouldn't be anyway to move west.

>>58113531
What myriad of circumstances has brought you to this place in life?

>>58113469
People forget how massively advanced gens 1-3 were in regards to their contemporary handheld games.

Daily reminder that you don't actually like Pokemon anymore. You like the feeling of nostalgia it gives you. Pokemon reminds you of the peak of your life at childhood. A time where you didn't have responsibilities and your parents still had hope for you. A time when there wasn't a black president and you could say whatever you wanted without getting canceled. A time where you actually had friends who wanted to be around you as you weren't a lonely, bitter human being yet and your autism was just seen as cute. You want to go back in time just far enough where you could have MAYBE changed your life for the better if you made one or two decisions differently. Just take a second and compare your early 2000s self to what you are now. It explains everything. I know a few of y'all will cope with "muh society is collapsing", but this isn't the case at all. YOU'RE the thing that is collapsing. Most of you have no marketable skills, have no meaningful investments and call memecoins your "investment". You're ugly and have not worked on any of your social skills. You can pretend your inherent failure is due to an implausible roundtable of wealthy Jewish people...or whatever boogeyman scapegoat you've picked this time, but it's your fault. Even if it "wasn't your fault", it doesn't matter because no one of value will accept this excuse on why you're such a joke.
It's time out for you to live in this fantasy world where everyone but you are mindless drones while you're this ebin trench coat-clad, wannabe anime Protagonist. You're just a normal human being that can't get over his childhood. Somehow you got it in your head that this would transport you back to the past. I am here to tell you that this is not possible. Scientifically speaking, it is impossible for you to go back in time. Variable t will always be positive. The past is gone. All things that happened have sunk. I know this realization hurts as your favorite hivemind shows suggest a different reality, but it's true.

>b-but what does this have to do with Pokemon?!
Nothing, but that's just it. This never had to do with Pokemon. It has to do with you not wanting to be an adult and take control of your life. It's easier to use some children's creature collection franchise as a scapegoat for your own inherent failures that is obvious to everyone who knows you, but it's time to start building yourself rather than on your schizo-levels of hate on modern pokemon games. Start with little things. Sign up for a gym membership, get a haircut, buy some real and quality clothing. Learn to smile, and speak with confidence, practice your posture, ask a girl or two out a week, keep trying. Start thinking of a small business idea or two. Take your bitcoins out and invest in real stocks. Stop reading garbage clickbait, work on your social media presence, find some credible news sources to follow and start applying things. You can literally do all of this tomorrow, but you refuse to. Instead, you spend this time seething over people enjoying video games, playing romhacks from your childhood generation and eating unhealthy foods. I know this is a pretty hard pill to swallow, but you can do it. Take baby steps to go full force ahead. Stay humble. Stay safe and stay socially distanced bros.

Tl dr:Stop using your childhood as a reason to not grow up.

>gen 3/4 babbies keep screaming about how glitchy gen 1 is
You never actually played the games. RBY are glitchy the same way Ocarina of Time is extremely glitchy. They might be easy to break but you’ll pretty much never encounter a glitch or be able to exploit it just playing the game normally.

>>58113781

You are far more pathetic than any manchild playing pokemon could ever be. I bet you seethe with impotent rage knowing there are people with wives and girlfriends still enjoying pokemon while you make love to your hand thinking about Hitler.

I agree. I was surprised when I played Red a while ago and my Growlithe evolved without a Fire Stone. I had never heard of that bug before I encountered it.

>>58114618
I laugh when the younger generations cope by saying it's all nostalgia, though I also feel a bit sorry for them. They grew up in a world where everything sucked and thought that's just how things are. Never had their own version of pokemania, or the mystery of not knowing everything about a game on release, or the feeling of playing your gameboy in the car on the ride back home from pizza hut. We're the only ones who realize what was taken from them.

And to address thread topic, of course its our world...got this glitches we can use to shape it as we please

Well they are unavoidable cry glitches and 1/256 glitch will be run into over a run but really those are minor.

>>58113995

I made this post in another thread, but bears repeating.
Here are glitches that the average user will experience.
>Badge Boost glitch

>Experience PC withdrawing glitch
>1/256 miss
>Evolved without stone bug
>Psywave move
>Fly/Dig invulnearbility move
>Focus energy buff
>Hyperbeam bugs
>Toxic and substitute bug
>Dual-type attack display text bug
>Jump kick does 1 recoil damage
>EXP all glitch
>Level up move skip
>Multiplayer link desync
>Several minor errors
There is a challenge called "can you play Pokémon Red/Blue without glitches?"
And these are the FIXED versions. Red and Green (original Japanese version) were much worse and broke if you pressed select to re-arrange items and moves. And even crashed in certain maps.

Pokémon gen I is nothing short of a technology marvel.
They tried their absolute best with the tools they had at the time and, even if it is unbalanced and glitchy, they did something nobody else has.
When you are innovating, there are no guides to follow. There is no hindsight. That's why I will never call gen I "bad", but I will not call it "good" either. Objectively speaking, it is no longer fun to play and falls behind mechanically.

All other games after gen I have these game as the template, though. And not fixing on its mistakes is stupid and makes every subsequent game worse. You already had everything! You just had to iron out the kinks on your design philosophy and presto, you could make the perfect game. But each improvement came with dozens of issues.

Mechanically, I would say gen 3, 5 and 5 are the best to play. Thematically the answer gets much more nebulous and less objective.

>>58115116
>maxresdefault
Clearly it's just a random google image, I wouldn't give it that much thought. Nobody over 16 is so opposed to the idea of pixels and empty screen space to actually play like this, and for the children who do at least they're trying a game that isn't just the latest f2p viral slop.

>>58113682
They honestly discounted Pokemon and everything it was just because it was popular and still do even though it was miles ahead of most rpgs at the time

>Never had their own version of pokemania
What are you talking about? Pokemania wasn't a thing until Pokemon Go.

>>58115472
That was pokemania part 2. Were you even alive or self-aware during pokemania? Obviously everyone got excited for pokemon go because of the original pokemania making pokemon popular. Also I think Minecraft and Fortnite were basically the younger generations' version of pokemania.

>>58115512
Don't be stupid- what you're calling "pokemania" was a shortlived fad among kids with no staying power that died when the PS2 came out. The TRUE Pokemania was from Pokemon Go, which got EVERYONE into Pokemon; kids, adults, fans and normal people, and it's still going strong today, hence why Pokemon merch is still everywhere.

>>58115519
Pokemon go lasted like 1 month and the adults were people who played during pokemania as kids and their children

>>58115472
Pokemania was only for kids but lasted like 2 years. The decline during Johto and Yugioh's release was very real.

Pokemon Go involved everyone but only lasted like half a year at most. However, it brought Pokemon back to relevancy after gen 2 failed to capitalize on the hype. It's almost been a decade since then and the franchise is arguably doing better than it was back in the 90s from all the merch sales.
