Venasaur first time. First poke to hit l100.

Vine whip and razor leaf were so loving strong.

I can't remember if I chose hitmonchan or hitmonlee, prob -lee until I found out that -chan could learn a ton of elemental punches (ice punch, fire punch etc)

I guess dome fossil for the kabuto

And for eevee I think jolteon cause I didn't have a electric Pokemon. Even though jolteon sucked a ton. Maybe flareon. drat op. It was like 15 years ago. I don't remember.

Now if you were to ask me about Pokemon Silver..... Because I went about as hard as a 7 year old could with that one

Dude silver/gold was out of loving control. Day night cycles, rematches, a decent exp share
Breeding, etc

An entire region with new pokes and new gyms and when you beat it you get to go through gen 1 and steam roll it???

Then you can beat Red at the top of mount silver who had lv80 pokemon

Silver/gold was like a loving fever dream some kid at your school lied about "you get new Pokemon and new bikes and after you beat the game you can go BACK to the entire first generation and you can fight Ash" but it was all true

Gen 2 was magical poo poo.

the whole identity of 'im an old guy obsessed with my childhood and i only believe 151 pokemon exist to this day' just means they never had any bucks in their jorts when gen 2 came out, it really was just a direct continuation of the game with some new cool stuff, i think almost all of the additional pokemon were even designed by the same original dudes who didn't have 24/7 coke money yet either and still enjoyed the project

gen 3 however was really lovely in character and map design both, and if you like it or get nostalgic about it grats on being younger than me and living longer, idiots

I'm still disappointed they haven't ever done that again. Gen 3 map sucked with way too much loving water features and I stubbornly refused to believe they didn't load gen 2 and gen 1 regions into the game until the bitter end. Gen 3 was game boy advance wasn't it??

Grass moves were really good

Leech seed, vine whip, razor leaf, gigadrain, solar beam

Water moves sucked because They were all outclassed by Surf.

Hydropump was cool but super late. Like lv38?

The only thing that matters is almost all the strengths and weaknesses are intuitive so when newer games or whatever try to pull some dumb poo poo like ice is actually strong against fire they can get hosed
