Flame Dragon Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 I don't have a burning hate love for Gen 2 like I do Gen 1, so I'm not as excited as I was for that, but getting rereleases for these should be cool. Certainly looking forward to getting to play through the original again. Need to figure out if I want to use Typhlosion for a 3rd time or finally switch to something else. Probably should switch since I don't even like Ty all that much. I do find it curious though that we aren't getting Crystal. Maybe having the strictly better version on sale at the same time would hurt the other 2? Wonder if this was the case for R/B/G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted June 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 I'll probs use Totodile again, at least I don't have to breed Ice Punch onto it as it's a TM in gen 2. I do find it curious though that we aren't getting Crystal. Maybe having the strictly better version on sale at the same time would hurt the other 2? Wonder if this was the case for R/B/G.Japan had RBG and Y whilst we had RBY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 Japan had RBG and Y whilst we had RBY Yea, I know. I was curious if having the 3 (4 for Japan) different versions for what is basically the same game ate into each other. In a vacuum the correct one to buy is pretty much just Yellow. It is the most complete of the Gen 1 games. Also, thing to be excited about, this makes getting HAs on the Gen 2 mon SUPER easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having crystal this time round is a bit weird, but not the end of the world really. Yea, I feel like that would be the common line most people took. Given the choice between the 3, pretty sure Crystal would be bought by 90% of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted June 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 One thing I'm curious about is whether there are movesets that were only available in Gen 2. Yea, I feel like that would be the common line most people took. Given the choice between the 3, pretty sure Crystal would be bought by 90% of people.I'm also sure the majority would've gotten Crystal as well with the extra story elements. (Though I probs would've gotten Silver anyway 'cuz I was planning on using Mareep again, which you can't in Crystal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 I can only imagine how people will abuse the Time Capsule, trading pokemon like Kabutops with Hydro Pump or an Alakazam with the elemental punches from back then. I'm glad, but they forgot Crystal. Anyway, I picked Totodile before and I will do so again, for Silver, Cyndaquil for Gold. Just don't smash your 3ds's to pieces when you come across Whitney.

Just don't smash your 3ds's to pieces when you come across Whitney.I'm sure most of us know how to deal with her by now. I never had any issues with her personally.

Blake Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 Unlike Gen 1, I'll probably buy at least Gold when these roll around. Gen 2 is actually fun to replay every so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 I think I have my team planned out for Silver when it comes out;- Feraligatr- Ampharos- Girafarig- Sandslash- Magmar- Gyarados (as a slave) I haven't used Girafarig or Sandslash, so should be interesting.

~British Soul~ Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Normal Gyarados or Red Gyarados?Doesn't really matter tbph, a Gyarados is a Gyarados and I'm only using it as a HM slave anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 Doesn't really matter tbph, a Gyarados is a Gyarados and I'm only using it as a HM slave anyway.Take my advice, use a regular Gyarados for an HM slave, Surf, Strength, Whirlpool and Waterfall. Have the red Gyarados be your battler. My team for Silver shall be Feraligatr, Kadabra with Fire, Ice and Thunderpunch and let's not forget Psychic, Hitmonlee, Haunter, Entei and Victreebel. I can't trade over for Alakazam and Gengar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the red Gyarados be your battler.I'm not gonna be using Gyarados as a battler though, so I could either use the red one as the slave or let it rot in the pc if I get a normal one. ...or easier option, use a Poliwag as the slave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if this is any indication, maybe RSE will come to vc as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted June 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 Also, if this is any indication, maybe RSE will come to vc as well.One reason why I don't see RSE coming to VC is the fact that Gens 3-7 are connected through means of transferring 'mons (Migrating from 3-4, transfer lab 4-5, transporter/bank 5-6 and bank 6-7).
