Re: Pokemon!
It's like Star Wars.
Ask a fan of the original trilogy what they think of the prequel trilogy, and most of them will tell you that it sucks. What they don't seem to understand is that it wasn't marketed at them! Lucas knew that he would get a load of original fans to come and see the Star Wars prequels regardless. The prequels were aimed at the new generation, the one that had to actually be pulled in and interested by it. Pokémon is the same. It's aimed at kids. They keep introducing new critters and regions in an attempt to keep it fresh for the veteran fans they know they have, but it's marketed at kids.

Re: Pokemon!
Well,i suppose i get it.New kids would be more interested in the new gen rather than Kanto.still annoys me though.oh well i guess that doesn't matter.i probably still won't play the new games though.I'd rather stick with the first three regions.The new regions and the revamped Pokemon center would just complicate things.but still,star wars stopped after the prequels.i just hope they stop here.it's been 5 regions already.

Re: Pokemon!
Black and White? Seriously? I guess they figured they ran out of precious stones/metals. Personally I think that an Element theme should be introduced. Pokemon Lithium and Pokemon Flourine, anyone?

Re: Pokemon!
If they really wanted a good naming scheme, they would have used Ebony and Ivory.
Also, $100 says the third version will be Gray version.

And LOL! I was wondering when someone would bring up hacks! How many of you guys have played any of them before?
Or Ebony and Glass, third version would be Daedric. Lolz.videogmer314 wrote:If they really wanted a good naming scheme, they would have used Ebony and Ivory.

Or, just Google "Whack a Hack", click the first one, and click "Hacks" at the top bar. Quartz is on there, as well as a bunch of other decent to pretty good hacks.

Re: Pokemon!
Yeah, especially Plug-Oink... I'm actually a bit afraid to see what it evolves into...Boethiah's Hunger wrote:Your welcome. Don't get too nitpicky about the sprites, Baro was trying to make them kinda funky
Which starter did you pick the first time you played through it? I picked Aquegg, which has since evolved into an Ornaby.

Re: Pokemon!
Plug-Oink is one of the better ones, actually. And I picked the water one, actually.
I still haven't beaten the game, I find it difficult to play Pokemon on the computer O_o

What, the fact that it's not handheld, or the fact that your computer has issues running the emulator?Boethiah's Hunger wrote:I still haven't beaten the game, I find it difficult to play Pokemon on the computer O_o

Has anyone else had trouble with emulators running slowly for DS games?
