Yes, once on the on GB generation, once on the GBA gen and then again on the DS. It's not that difficult TBH, kids seem to see the number you need to catch and don't bother with it.Dommyboy post=9.71633.732505 said:Has anyone here actually "Catched them all?"

And it is awesome.
I had this discussion with my friend not two days ago when we were link battling on Blue and Red.[email protected] post=9.71633.732525 said:A Pokemon MMO would be pretty sweet...
493 in total now. But they've got lazy and made alternate forms for a lot of them making it look like there's loads more than 500.Syphonz post=9.71633.732802 said:Considering the Gameboy games are usually not big enough (if there is any) to fit all the pokemoes there are now...Seriously how many are there? I remember back in Grade 6 when there was only 150.
You can't really have RPGs without huge grinding elements. They go hand in hand, admittedly most people would like to severe the connection, RPGs would become shallow and either ridiculously easy or ridiculously hard.Rampage911 post=9.71633.731859 said:And the game would be in no way repetitive, boring, or unatractive.
Yes me too, if they did it so it's the same as the handheld ones except there are no NPC battles, each trainer in the game is a person, that would be awesome.Shivari post=9.71633.731918 said:I have always said that if they made a PokeMMOn it would be the first and only MMO I would ever play.

Final Fantasy 12 tried to kill of the grind factor by letting you set up gambits and put your joypad down in the middle of mobs...........people still slated it for this. Guess no one's happy if you change something OR if you leave it alone.needausername post=9.71633.732811 said:You can't really have RPGs without huge grinding elements.

That could be solved with a really high level area.dannydamage post=9.71633.732823 said:it's not so bad. Until you get to lvl 80 or so then it becomes slightly grindesque.
Which they have in Platinum!TheGhostOfSin post=9.71633.732897 said:That could be solved with a really high level area.dannydamage post=9.71633.732823 said:it's not so bad. Until you get to lvl 80 or so then it becomes slightly grindesque.
Didn't stop me from getting my Electrobuzz and Gyrados up to 100 in Pokemon Red when I was really little. My Electrobuzz was unstoppable in link battles!dannydamage post=9.71633.732823 said:Until you get to lvl 80 or so then it becomes slightly grindesque.
That is both awesome and terrifying at the same time.TheGhostOfSin post=9.71633.732812 said:<url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOX3OmUhQoo>Linky LinkyThe Iron Ninja post=9.71633.731899 said:I was hoping that this was a thread about pokemon in general.

Me neither, I have several boxes full of Lvl 100s (between 50-60) migrated onto my DS. I had Red for my Gameboy, then I got Gold. That all got sold in my mid teens and then I got FireRed and Emerald for the GBA and Colosseum for my Gamecube (awesome for levelling to 100). Most recently I've obtained Pearl and Diamond and I've kept up with it.Shivari post=9.71633.733632 said:Didn't stop me from getting my Electrobuzz and Gyrados up to 100 in Pokemon Red when I was really little.

Also, I've always said that the original 150 > all of the others, but Swablu from the Sapphire game is so cute!
I would agree with this idea...if you hadn't made a pun on both Pokemon and MMOs.Shivari post=9.71633.731918 said:I have always said that if they made a PokeMMOn it would be the first and only MMO I would ever play.
I had a deep respect for you, Shivari...what happened to you? The Japanese got to you, didn't they? HOW MUCH ARE THEY PAYING YOU?!Shivari post=9.71633.733632 said:My Electrobuzz was unstoppable in link battles!

I would rather have witnessed a Rick Roll there...
PokeMMOn...*sigh*
Well since I'M(MO) new it's a pretty low salary but there's a lot of rooM(MO) to MMOve up...I had a deep respect for you, Shivari...what happened to you? The Japanese got to you, didn't they? HOW MUCH ARE THEY PAYING YOU?!
Have you actually played a pokemon game? They represent well balanced, challenging RPG games.Fire Daemon post=9.71633.731883 said:Pokemon is designed to be a kids game.

As for the combat system, the depth and complexity of it is staggering. Visit to www.serebii.net to see what I mean. There is practically infinite scope for competitive battling, especially at the highest, professional levels.
The fact is, the Pokemnon games are too hard for most kids, but are drawn to them because of the cartoon, and the colourful nature of the characters. The Pokemon series deserves an environment like that which the OP describes.
People who dismiss the Pokemon series as 'just a kids game' are simply ignorant.
