-d. These games are literally made for 10 year olds, you frothing retard.
Oliver Gonzalez
-d. Literaly children focused games.
Literaly. Made. To. Be. Beaten. By. Children. Only manchilds like you think em hard
Adam Harris
HGSS was harder than B2W2 and I like B2W2 more.
Julian Reyes
>Challenge mode
Oh yeah, that thing no one got to fucking play because it required you to trade with someone who has the opposite version, AND have beaten the game first AND be ready to throw your original save away. So fucking glad I emulated this game so I could just flip it on. The fuck were they thinking
Game Freak is the worst nintendo-adjacent developer

Yeah, real pros here.
sash guillotine is top meme though, can you imagine both being down to your last mon and iris just OHKOs you at 1hp for the win?

Sometimes Game Freak is alright.
Cameron Bailey
Now, OP is baiting indeed, but let's not exaggerate, user.
Ideally one would give you the key BEFORE you started...but that situation could really only happen in Japan or between brothers.
Nathaniel Nelson
What are some good hard mods for pokemon?
Andrew Reyes
does pokemon still give you a million fullheal items
Elijah Thomas
I mean, it's not Smogon but still okay for AI.
Owen Peterson
I want to IMAGINE Iris
Noah Baker
No, ideally it'd just be a mode you can turn on and off at will while playing the game, maybe have the professor tell you about it once you get your first pokemon and finish the tutorial battle. If it gets too hard for little timmy he can disable it.

>dunno anything about archeops but being rock probably makes any electric attacks useless
>dark dragon type somehow knows a water type HM move
Kevin Peterson
HGSS had an absolutely retarded difficulty spike during Clair's gym and there's also literally nowhere to grind for post game.
Eli Adams
ideally it'd just be a difficulty setting you can change at any time, but let's be real, this is game freak we're talking about. We're lucky they even considered a difficulty setting in any way whatsoever. I swear either everyone who works there is a mongoloid, gives no shits about the games they make, or the management is just iron-fisted.
Landon Lee
>literally ice, water and fighting bait
James Brown
Im glad that wasnt just me
I remember getting to the E4 and all my team were barely lvl 40
Owen Mitchell
Rock doesn't do shit against Electric.
Brandon Foster
>rock
you mean ground, and ironically it is also weak to rock, so you can literally douse, electrocute, or stone archeops
lapras is shit, you can hurl fighting moves at it (this is gen V where it has many strong moves), same with hydreigon
Isaac Richardson
didnt geodude/onix completely negate thunderbolt in gen 1?
Nathan Taylor
Yes but that's because Earth type
William Lewis
geodude did because it's also ground type
Onix doesn't resist electric, that's an anime thing they made up.
Xavier Gray
Ground*
Leo Green
No, i meant how the mode is implemented actually works. That it's retardedly implemented mode is a know fact, but that was how it was supposed to be shared.
What is exactly difficult about that gym outside Kingdra? Hell if you got Lapras it deals with everyone outside Kingdra. And Kingdra itself only has Hydro Pump and Hyper Beam to worry about.
Why do people constantly forget that those were Ground types?
Tyler Edwards
They do in every gen. They're both Rock/Ground. Ground nullifies damage from Electric attacks.
Landon Moore
>make actually smart AI in gen 4
>put it on champion only, everyone else gets same shit as a bug catcher from route 1
>never reuse it since
Austin Myers
>Why do people constantly forget that those were Ground types
They look like literal rocks.
You mean minmaxed IV/EV? Because actually a lot of endgame trainers have them
Gabriel Martinez
I'm convinced they did this just to shut people up asking for hardmode, just to say "well nobody played it!" when they removed it
Elijah Cruz
No, Cynthia actually had a different, more competent AI than any trainer before or since.
Xavier Edwards
>just to say "well nobody played it!" when they removed it
It's even dumber than that. Gamefreak removes features every game to "keep each region feeling unique" or some shit.
Noah Torres
DP or Plat? Didn't notice anything except slightly more chance to switch when she's fucked.
Owen Hall

Well, she is a dragon trainer.
Matthew Cooper
It's probably because they start from scratch every generation and build their own shitty in house engine like it's the 1990s and they make game boy games. Then, woopsie, we have no budget and no staff and spent all our time reinventing the wheel, let's just slap together some shitty copypasta dialogue, linear "dungeons", stick the premade assets in and call it a day.
Chase Morgan
champions being a specific type is stupid as shit
Hudson Robinson
I know right.
Pic related is best dragon team though.
Asher King
He is a Flying trainer tho.
Jacob King
Actually yes, but the game calls him a dragon trainer.
Justin Butler
>Why do people constantly forget that those were Ground types?
Because back then when pokemon was still new, geodude and onix were Brock's signature pokemon and Brock was a rock type gym leader. When Pikachu was ineffective against them, most people assume it's because of the rock typing. Brock didn't even mention they were part ground.
Anthony Murphy
Steven's rock/ground/steel theme was pretty cool.
Carson Morgan
Holy shit, never realized this.
Is he secretly falkner’s daddy?
Dominic Rodriguez

Wow, so "challenging"
Nolan Harris
>not using close combat on hydreigon
kills him dead right there
Brody Nelson
But more people played RB than Yellow.
