Literally the perfect pokemon game

Reminder that all anti-Johtofags are mindbroken virgins who have nothing better to do than to ramble on about how one of the greatest GameBoy games of all time is bad because they can't nuzlocke it.

Why can't you Nuzlocke it?

Do not even try to gaslight me.

Take your meds

Because the level curve goes flat between Chuck and Pryce in order to make it easier to play the game how you want, and many of the new Pokémon are rare and locked to events/day-night encounters to make the games seem more realistic.

Name 1 good gen 2 pokemon.
Careful, Tyranitar is effectively unobtainable.
Go ahead, dig through the 7 babymons, 13 early route bug shitmons.

Im about to try plat for the first time then ill prob give silver or gold a fair shot for once. Played silver a little as a kid but got distracted by counter strike.

That argument doesn't work because the "reward" in this example are complete shitmons like Yanma that are worse than their kanto counterparts.
What about instead of artificial rarity you had actually interesting pokemon to explore? That would make people actually excited in going out of their way and hunting for them.

No it's a shitmon because it has objectively worse stats than early route bugmons, it doesn't have an interesting design and it doesn't learn any interesting moves.

I remember always getting lost trying to surf from olivia to cainwood. Meanwhile my friend told me he would reset the entire game everytime he got to chuck's gym because he couldnt solve the boulder puzzle.

i like gen 2 and i replayed it a billion times, but in arceus it felt really nice to throw pokeballs at stuff and exploring the 3D areas. i really hope future remakes will be in this style instead of... whatever bdsp was

who cares about stats you can beat any pokemon game with 6 rattata or whatever the shittiest pokemon is

thats not HG/SS???

>see one pokemon
>can't find it
>keep searching for it
This was before they fucked over encounter rates so everyone and their mother could find rare pokemon.

/thread

So you went from
>they're supposed to be super rare rewards
to
>they're not actually that bad
to
>who cares if they're bad anyway
your continuous spam of the same images thread after thread only out you as the discordfag

>they're supposed to be super rare rewards
This is still correct no matter what you say though.

OPBP

SPBP

huh? im not that guy bro take your meds you're getting all flustered because someone said a pokemon game is good lmao

I will not bother addressing the shitmons that you consider good
>starters
Copypasted stats from gen 1 starters but monotype making them literally worse, Feraligatr learns 1 (one) water move, Meganium is somehow even worse, it only learns Solarbeam.
They might be the worst set of starters ever. Yes, including the bara/tranny bait in gen 7 and the shit in gen 8
>scizor
>steelix
>kingdra
trade evos from kantomons, el oh el
>heracross
keep headbutting trees bro, but only those specific trees not going to tell which ones but only with a 10% chance
>Tyranitar
You find larvitar in Mt Silver, around level 20. Red has pokemon in their 70-80 (even worse in HGSS). Question, how much time is it gonna take for it to grind 60 levels? Where are you going to do it?
As I said, unobtainable.

>the main villains evil plot is to make a phone call
>the guy he's calling doesn't pick up
What a great story lmao

I'm flustered because the same autist has been making genwars for ages now using the same images because he can't comprehend that people don't consider his precious game the best

this. All the shit aspects of the gameplay I might've been able to overlook if it had a somewhat compelling story but it's just such fucking nothing. You're cleaning up Team Rocket sloppy seconds except they don't really have any major plan like any other Pokemon game, they're just kind of fucking around and winging it. There's nothing memorable about any of the villains, I struggle to even remember the name of the Rocket leader in Johto and fighting a team that uses the same shitmons you already fought a billion times in RBY puts me to sleep. I remember how bored I was when one of the elites had a team of 6 Koffings.

It's even more aggravating with the remakes that fixed literally none of the problems the original games had.

>Johto is boring and empty because they wanted space to include Kanto
>Kanto is boring and empty too
Genius move Gamefreak

You can't get most of these without trading or beating Lance. Ampharos isn't even in Crystal version

Yeah

And they are shit, so everyone ignores them.
There's a reason why every johto team is Typhlosion, Ampharos, Togetic, Eeveelution, Red Gyarados + 1
It'd be excused if they had at least an interesting design despite being complete shit, dunsparce is that somewhat but still boring, as they stand now they're dex filler.
Except it's the very definition of tedium. 1% rates and only during a specific time of day shouldn't be excused.

>Except it's the very definition of tedium. 1% rates and only during a specific time of day shouldn't be excused.
You're talking to Pokefags lol, in their mind the longer something takes to do the better it is

HG/SS and B/W2 are peak Pokemon if we aren't counting spinoffs. However any Pokemon game can be perfect if it's a romhack.

Why do people consider HG/SS peak pokemon? Pretty much every complaint in this thread so far applies just as much to HG/SS as it does to the original games.

99% of romhacks are somewhere between awful and pointless.

>I like this one Pokemon so I put it in the game :)
>Haha this is totally a complete rebalancing of the game even though everything is the same apart from these two small things

Like come on do something worthwhile. Has nobody just made an easy to use devkit for Pokemon yet?

It was shit even in comparison to other gameboy games

Pokemon Emerald... now THAT was a game...

secret bases > the rest of the game

Which was your favorite base? I think I liked the one south of mossdeep because it was spacious enough to fit my slides/tents

the ost is dogshit and the map sucks

itt zoomers try to tell me why gen2 is bad but fortnite is good
sorry kids, it's saturday morning, i'm gonna drive my tractor

Secret bases were pretty dumb. There wasn't anything to do with them. It really felt like they had an idea for a game but instead of developing it they added the prototype into Pokémon.
