Pokémon Red, Blue, & Yellow

[SlowPokemon]

Yeah, I can't believe how hyped I am for this. I mean, technically speaking, these are the least advanced Pokémon games, and there's definitely a lot about Pokémon as a game that improves with every new title. But something tells me this will still be a fun experience.

TBH, I just hope I know someone who gets a different game so that I can trade. It'd be a huge bummer if I can't complete the Pokédex.

I think it's sort of like, playing my first game on my most currrent handheld? It's really just going back to my first gaming experience all over again.

[SlowPokemon]

Oh, that's right, Blue was your first-ever game! That is exciting. I kind of already got that super nostalgia blast when I played Omega Ruby, but it'll still be fun. Ruby and Silver are the most nostalgic for me, but I played both Blue and LeafGreen more times than I can count (and it's been a while since I've done so).

I AM bummed that you can't find Meowth in Yellow. But I guess I'll get over it since I can use all three starter Pokémon if I want to.

Speaking of which, I think it'd be fun to mimic Red's team from HeartGold and SoulSilver--that would be what, Pikachu, Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Snorlax, and Lapras? I might end up replacing Snorlax with Jigglypuff and Lapras with Alakazam or another Psychic-type Pokémon, though.

I think my team might be Blastoise, Pidgeot, Butterfree, Dugtrio, Clefable and Jolteon? Those were favorites I used a lot as a kid, from what little I remember, so it'll be fun.

I can't wait, tbh. I need to get the eShop money.

[SlowPokemon]

I've got a little over $10 in my account leftover from Nintendo eShop cards I received for Christmas, so I'm good to go! As long as I don't cave and buy something before then, that is.

[braix]

I actually never played any of those first three games. Maybe one day I can get some eShop money to buy one

[Nebbles]

I also can't wait to finally have battles with my friends. I never really experienced using a link cable too often.

Saw the poll results so far and am surprised. Soon we shall take over the world with Articuno's power!!!

...Well, in Gen 1 at least, though Zapdos is also very powerful in those games as well. That drill peck can be destructive if used right.

[mikey]

I'm a zapdos guy
still salty that pidgey isn't up there

[BrainyLucario]

Articuno FTW!!

[JDMEK5]

Guess I'll be the first to say Articuno, then.

I think Articuno's my favorite.

Articuno is my personal favorite.

Soon we shall take over the world with Articuno's power!!!

Articuno FTW!!

My friend was bragging about a super-Garchomp he was raising back in 4th gen so the first thing I did was raise an Articuno.

[mikey]

I might end up buying one if my mom doesn't give me the gameboy/gamecube disc soon

I'm a bit disappointed Moltres isn't doing too hot.

[Yug_Guy]

I'm a bit disappointed Moltres isn't doing too hot.

It's okay, I'm dissapointed too. *hugs*

Was that a pun
