Ho-oh appears in the first episode of the anime, so no.

Its a good thing the anime and games are seperate, otherwise we'd have 153 original pokemon thanks to Togepi too

Remember when there was 2 genders?

That wasn't an option in Gen 1

'Member when Fairy type didn't exist?

'Member when Dragon type only had one move and it always did 40 damage?

'Member when Steel and Dark types didn't exist?

Member the good ol' days of Hoenn?

You mean sex. Gender was historically a linguistic term (le la les).

member berries = genwunners

Nah, member berries = /vr/

What is this? I assume not video games.

'member when Sup Forums used to be good?

Sup Forums was never good you just got older

No, because development of Gen 2 started before Gen 1 released outside of Japan, and at least 190 pokémon were designed for Gen 1 according to junk data in the source code, so you have nostalgia for a period of a few months in only one country.

Is this some Cancer Generation cartoon?

'member when Ash won a Pokemon League?

remember when there was no Pokemon

'member 'go 'za?

He was a good friend.

what in the fuck is this

What do you mean

And Ghost only had 2 moves that were both effectively fixed damage?

Oh yeah, and when the only ghost type pokemon in the game were also weak to the very same typing ghost was supposed to be effective against?

Gen 1 was cool for its time but mechanically, it was broken as fuck.

remember me?

>Camera pic.
Just screencap it you fuck.

Its hard to screencap a television

Sup Forums is currently very good

Winter is coming.

>Le Sup Forums was always shit
Nice meme.

>I thought this was a south park thread
It pretty much is, but I guess pokemon fans don't watch South Park

I feel like I'm supposed to be familiar with this from hearing it but I'm still unsure.

OLD SNAKE INTENSIFIES
youtube.com/watch?v=_k3n5me4Rns

I live in Arizona and they had an event at a local mall where they taught you how to play the Pokemon trading card game and they had the Pikachu Volkswagen.

Fuck man, I was like 10 or 11 when this happened.

People were hooking up their Gameboys via cable and fighting each other.

Some cheap niggers had learned how to glitch their Pokemon to some insane level (200+) I think.

Guys, enjoy your youth because you'll be old before you know.

Grants I'm 31, look 25 and act 20.

I'm a fucking mess.

I am also 30.
These kids think they are gonna be 18-25 forever.

Well I'm 31 and I know I'm going to think like I'm 20-25 forever.

Fucking growing up, I'm a 30 year old boy.

Yeah that was a quote from Fight Club.

I'm old.

why do those grapes have faces

Manual reminder that most of Gen 2 was designed to be in Gen 1 and was cut for space reasons.

There were never only 151 user.

Member lan parties?
Member run commands for PC games?
Member cleaning kits you bought at Funcoland?

'Member when bug was effective against poison and poison was effective against bug?

fuck you OP, your stupid and dumb and your mom is fat and I bet you eat farts

Manual reminder that every gen 2 Pokemon was cut before Grimer, Seel or Tangela. Game Freak holds Tyrannitar in a lower regard than Dugong.

I know that feel OP, first gen was best gen

Technically there have always been three genders, since hermaphrodites have always existed.

Lack of a gender is not a different gender.
It means they are agendered, as in they just straight up have no gender.

No, they have a gender, it's just a morph of two.
Though generally they choose one, rather than being in-between freaks.

It's not a lack of a gender it's having both.

Magnemite does not have a metal penis and vagina.
He's a ball of metal with magnets and has no gender.

Oh you're talking about pokemon

Should I replay the whole mainline series? Only did Yellow and Silver back in the day and I'm itching to play again. Dunno if I should jump into Emerald and forget about the old ones.

I dont think there's much of a reason to replay them all in order.
There's no important continuity.
I'd play Emerald and if anything play Firered/Leafgreen and HeartGold/SoulSilver

I still remember checking comments on Gen 1 and Gen 2 Pokemon OST videos, and seeing people with for remakes of Gold and SIlver, as well as talking about their childhood.

Time flies I guess.

'member when "gender" was just the public appropriate version of "sex", as in biological sex?

when will Peetle be saved

How I miss those days, where styling your hair different was the way to stand out, not eating a lot and calling it a gender.

Yes and I also remember that Gold and Silver were talked about and hyped on the internet.

I don't get why fans like that acted like we were happy with just 151. We wanted MORE until the estranged fans that dropped it somewhere started pretending we never asked for this.

It was just the bandwagon.
Sadly, nowadays /vp/ and every single fag that still plays is a yes men that will accept anything that Gamefreak does without any kind of critique.
If you ever so say something against the games and how GF is a piece of shit that is banking on manchildren and kids alike, they get all pissed and tell you to come back to Sup Forums.
The other side is the fucking band wagoner normalfags that jumped in again because "muh pokemon go" which are just as bad.
Fuck the pokemon fanbase. They are dead to me.

I just don't see what the deal with criticizing Pokemon design is since either the types being represented are often justified in folklore or there's aspects of a Pokemon's design overlooked and easily dismissed. Funny thing is that I actually find more Fakemon designs to be uninspired, not the other way around.

A lot of modern Pokemon tend to have a theme and sometimes use some of the most obscure variants of animals as a design basis whereas Fakemon designs just give a random but often basic animal superpowers and leave it at that.

Nigga the problem is GF doesn't polish the fucking games.
They just make the basic and then sit down and wait for the money to rake in.
What about better GTS options? Why is it so hard to get more content? Now they are even charging for that service to host pokemon, when we all know servers are ridiculously cheap.
My fucking problems with the games is how bare bones they are, and they seem to take away more and more content instead of adding more, fixing issues that they don't even acknowledge and other stuff that I forgot right now, but I am sure it is fucking annoying.

'member Metroid?

Fucking hilarious, these things are going to be the highlight of the season.

I remember when there were 150, because I was a kid and had no way of legitimately getting my hands on this fucking faggot, thus ensuring my Pokedex would remain forever incomplete.

Fuck legendaries.

>First episode is already fuckin great

After 20 seasons it's insane how this show is still running strong for how simple the show really is.

Thank god Trey and Matt wont ever give it up.

Oooh ye, I member that

>it's insane how this show is still running strong for how simple the show really is.
It's because they dont even start writing until a week before it airs.

It's risky as fuck but it's basically the only way they can make such relevant/topical stuff.

Like the whole sit/stand during the anthem shit.

To put it in perspective a show like the Simpsons typically takes 6 - 8 months to reference something as simple as a top 40 pop song.

>until the estranged fans that dropped it somewhere
That somewhere is Ruby and Sapphire.

Even Genwunners will typical concede that Gen 2 was a massive improvement to Gen 1 and that the new 100 pokemon aren't terrible.

For whatever reason Gen 3 pissed a lot of people off and turned them away from the series.

that "period" only lasted less than a year because they started leaking japanese gold/silver and the games weren't released worldwide. You are literally trying to pass infant mistake and false memories as history.

>Diamond and Pearl
Fucking Christ
I never even made it to Diamond and Pearl, that's where the era of "newfangled dumb pokemon for kids" starts for me and it was fucking 9 years ago

Get used to disappointment.

>lel genwun lel u nostalgia babby? u nostalgia? le old man le genwunner doesnt like le pokemon its as good as it ever was le quality le hot new designs are better than boring genwun xDD

fuck /vp/

Remember when this was the last thing you saw before your entire non-Mewtwo team was Stomped, Ice Beamed, Blizzard'd, Earthquaked, and Hyper Beamed?

Remember when Tauros was the undisputed GOD of Normal type and on par with legendaries?

>wahh wahh SOCIETY thinks I don't look like a woman
Be fucking thankful you live in a society where you occasionally get comments about "dressing manly" instead of being Ahkmehd's 4th wife and getting stoned to death because the local witchman said your baby would be a son but you turned it into a daughter.

Soon enough user.

>new pokemon announced
>there will be 250 pokemons!
>drop the franchise

Don't forget

>EVERY GEN HAS TERRIBLE DESIGNS
>look at grimer and voltorb!

Man the butthurt was beautiful when the first mega evolutions were announced and all the "If charizard were a 5th Gen pokemon" over-designed mock ups were right on the fucking money.

New pokemon are gaudy as fuck

This is the fucking crux of it

>Live in a part of the world where instead of society forcing you to dress and act a certain way, sometimes on pain of death, it merely has an opinion on how you do
>"REEEEE OPPRESSIOOOON!"

member when you enjoyed video games?

I remember that day. People jumped through hoops to try and defend that shit.

I still do though.
However, I hate missing happenings and shit when I am playing games.

Why were people so scared to say the word "sex" in public?

>taking a pic of your screen

They weren't afraid, it's just the word "gender" worked fine

Also nips any of the hilarious "Sex? Yes please" jokes in the bud

I'm still surprised I can get real laughs out of the show for considering how long its been running.

What show is it? I have not had tv service in a decade.

South park.
I can't believe there is people that like this shitty show.
I never understood what was so funny about it.

'Member when Saudis directly funded 9/11 and got away with it, instead having their pals the Bushes destroy Iraq?

I thought they were talking about whatever show the image was from. As for South Park, the only thing I've ever seen of that was the movie back when it was new.

I feel like they hit the audience over the head with very simple gags. Like,
>ISN'T TRUMP SO WILD?! MR GARRISON IS HUMPING THE AIR!
>WHOA NOW, INTERNET TROLLS COULD BE ANYONE, BECAUSE EVERYONE IS ANONYMOUS!
>WATCH OUT FOR PC PROPAGANDA, THEY SAY THE SILLIEST THINGS.

It's still entertaining. Just not as great as it used to be. I'm glad they're linking the episodes though, because that makes it a lot more fun to watch.
