Hitmontop is the worst to get.

The absolute worst because it can all go to pot when he levels up and his stats become unbalanced due to EV gains from the battle. Ugh

@Octane "Hitmontops moveset is terrible"

Sir you just described Gen 2 in a nutshell.

Honestly I forgot the Egg was a thing. Then again im also pmaying this on my SNES Classic so I dont know which versions the Egg is in. I know they added Celebi to the VC release

The odd egg should be freely available in any international version of crystal.

The thing with the odd egg is that your Pokemon is guaranteed to be terrible if it's not shiny.

Each Pokemon comes in two varieties: normal with 0 in all stats, or shiny with 10 in all stats.

So if you plan to use a Pokemon from it, you might as well go for the shiny.

In silver, I got a level 5 Pokemon after the league (my Aerodactyl), it wasn't extremely hard to level it up.

Of course, I had to go through the elite four a few times, and it spent most of the time leeching exp.

@YummyHappyPills Other suggestions: Skarmory, Mantine, Ursaring, Donphan.

I meant terrible for gen 2 standards. I guess he has Triple Kick...

@Octane Mantine was an encounter but it was stubborn.

@Meowpheel Most streamers do. This is also a blind run so...dont want to risk anything. If it wasnt obvious Johto and I dont mix well.

Ill mull it over. Likely i can get by with 5 and an exp share on something throughKanto

@Joeynator3000 Im seeing loads of those threads too. Start of the month seems to be a frequent thing.

I would start a thread for the NLInklings but thats effort.

Anyhow, pupper update!

He weighs nearly 11kg and he's getting taller and somewhat unfortunately smarter. He seems to have picked me as his owner which seems to always happen.

I swear I repel people but animals are magnetised to me...

Wow! That dog even knows how to pose for the camera.

Kinda bummed I didn't find super Mario cereal at Wal-Mart today. They had some at the other Wal-Mart so I figured "Oh, I might find a box at this Wal-Mart too." No, that didn't happen. I got some new headphones though, and a Switch game card case so it wasn't a total bust.

These pretzels are making me thirsty

@Fooligan I wish it was here in the UK. I want to try it, at least once.

And the more I look at the image of Daxter (Damn he IS cute!!!!) the more I wonder if he really is a Saluki x Greyhound.

His ears man. They flop forward sometimes.

So to summarize the last page and a half:

  • Meowph was resetting the Odd Egg and got extremely lucky.
  • I concur that Gen 2's movesets, on the whole, are pants.
  • Yummy is still streaming through Crystal.
  • Yummy's dog is friggin' adorable! ^_^
  • Ogo needs to shower.

@Tyranexx All of this is 100% accurate.

Seriously @Meowpheel and that luck was like me and Shiny Pheromosa!

Gen 2...Gen 2 movesets...you don't even get to tutor Thunderbolt/Ice Beam/Flamethrower until Crystal, even then its post-game, and even then its on certain days only for 4000 bloody game corner tokens!

The TMs are absolute w*** and the compatability is all messed up with some things not learning logical things until later generations, for instance Crobat doesn't get Sludge Bomb, Feraligatr and Waterfall, etc., the wild Pokemon levels and variety is the worst it has ever been or ever will be in the series and the level up movesets are so horrendously bad for anything introduced in Gen 2 it beggars belief.

No wonder the metagame at the time was Rest/Sleep Talk, Toxic, Hidden Power, Snorlax, Zapdos, Raikou, Suicune and Blissey.
