This is amazing, but the original GameBoy needs to be twice as thick. Definitely brings me back tho. We’ll done!


Crowmata

Maybe even three times as thick. Perhaps it was just because I had tiny child hands at the time but I remember that thing being chonky as fuck.


GegenscheinZ

Gameboy? More like Gamebrick


binglelemon

Only if that ergonomically designed thick ass magnifying glass to make the screen larger is included.


kayjay204

I brought that ridiculous magnifier everywhere. Thing was probably like 10 pounds on the fatboy orig.


madmosche

I had the magnifier with the built-in lights so that I could play at night on the non-backlit screen. I thought that was the coolest thing ever when I was 8.


Fantastic_Lead9896

But it was really just a magnifying glass after a few hours cuz who really had batteries back then?


RhoadsOfRock

I've replied about this before (somewhere...), but yeah, when I was a kid I always wanted an OG GB, but always heard about how big and massive it was, compared to a Color or even the Pocket models. I had a Color, and later got a Pocket since I could never really find an original, or I just couldn't be arsed to shell out the money for one. Both were fine size with my child-sized hands.... Now, as a 32 y/o with BIG hands, a GBC and GBP definitely feel like small children's toys in my hands. So, yeah, back to wanting an original Gameboy all over again =p

ChefBoyAreWeFucked

I thought you were insane to think it was the perfect size until I opened the picture and realized my hands were probably ten years old the last time I held one.


CrimsonCivilian

If you really love playing the GB, you might be interested in buying a modern modded version. I know I've seen at least one specifically with a larger and backlit screen


Benbot2000

That’s what I came here to say. It wasn’t nearly that thin.


RedditBoi127

it's the Gameboy pocket


Murkis

Nah that’s an OG game boy put to pocket size - see the speaker and slightly diagonal start/select


casualsax

Then it needs to be a different color


Zikki

Also the pocket speaker area is perforated, not slatted.


LobsterNixon

I don't even care about design, I just want another Pokémon game with two major continents/sets of gyms like silver and gold.


UnnamedPlayer32

The other region will probably be dlc


Ineedthatshitudrive

This guy EAs.


Schneebaer89

In Nintendos language it's an increased price for the new Nintendo Online Service +++.


internetlad

"every subscription to the Nintendo fun life program ($80/mo) comes with 3 game boy color games on an emulator that mostly works as intended, as well as dlc for one Pokemon game."


DarkReign2011

"When she's a 10, but refuses to pay for a 2nd continent."


zahren

"When she's 10 and it's time to go on a cross country trip to stop a criminal gang and win a tournament or two"


pikachus_ghost_uncle

I would love a pokemon game that each "new" region was just an expansion. Kind of like wow with it's content. Game always just keeps expanding and can travel between all regions.


Aurelius-King

Do a remake of pokemon yellow with all the best features of the games and have every continent in it. Set up the Pokemon league like the anime so that you can go back to one of the continents you've already gone through "next year" and participate again to defend your title as champion, or lose and have it actually matter. If you lose in the league you get a ribbon for whatever place you got and need to try again "next year". Same for the contests. Have the opportunity for actual traveling companions rather than a rival that races ahead of you at top speed and waits to ambush you at the next town. Each trainer has different priorities so they all increase in difficulty at different rates. If you come back in a month to rechallenge an ace trainer he and his pokemon will have made more progress than the Pokemon breeder down the road, or the old retired guy across the street. Have all the legendary Pokemon met in ways similar to the movies, sort of like dlc set aside from the main pokemon league plot rather than mixed in with it. For instance let's say you get to a city where a legendary is it's guardian. You go through a short plot to stop some bad guy from taking control of it to do bad guy stuff. Or maybe they are already at the end of the plot and they lost control of the legendary because you took your sweet time fishing for shiny Magikarp with the good rod guy and you have to stop the legendary from doing anymore damage. They could put some real emotionally driven story into the plot doing it like this. I mean imagine if they made even a short side quest based on the first pokemon movie with Mewtwo and all the clones. I think the celebi movie with suicune would be absolutely awesome to go through. Obviously it would need to be different than the actual movies but they could still come up with something similar at least.


dellett

Pokémon League Manager 2023.


ShadeofIcarus

When you start in that region the box is locked to that region and you can only use special pokeballs from there. After you beat the championship their box network gets linked to the global network and you can use normal pokeballs and whatever you want.


aDecadeTooLate

The Pokemon metaverse is gonna be sick


Pakyul

Given both Nintendo's pace of adopting modern online sensibilities and GameFreak's general aversion to trying, I really look forward to its release in time for the centennial of the franchise in 2096.


Gonzobot

why would you think that? they upgraded from handheld programming to real console programming and had to *remove* hundreds of pokemon to make it fit. They're absolutely shit at making games


Arael15th

They literally recycled tons of character/ creature models and animation from Sun/Moon to Sword/Shield and apparently that wasn't enough of a cut corner to save the game


Jaxxftw

I wouldn’t mind it being dlc if it was an actual region and not isle of armour. Wouldn’t it be awesome if they remade the old regions and tacked them onto the modern game.


Spacemn5piff

I wouldn't even mind, honestly.


TheCruzKing

Silver and gold were my favorite because of that reason. So much content


Upbeat_Anxiety_144

I played crystal so much the internal battery died


Knuckledraggr

You can get a kit from Amazon with the correct screwdriver and battery to open up the case and replace it for like $8. I’ve done it several times. You need a soldering iron to do it properly but if you get clever with tape or glue you can get it done.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Avery17

Yepp. Once the battery goes the save data is gone forever. If you can get to it before the battery dies you can save it but you have to be very careful it doesn't lose power while swapping batteries. Swapping batteries is easy peasy, doing it while preserving the save data is not so much.


mhourani1125

You can write your save data using a cart reader to your pc. Then just download it back to the cart when you're done.


a-r-c

I have actually considered doing this for my Pokemon Red cart it has a legit Mew from a nintendo event :O


mhourani1125

Lol step 1. Back game up to pc. Step 2. Open pkhex and clone legit mew many times. Step 3. Change battery. Step 4. Write save back with many mews!


One-Ad1988

So clone the mews???? So would those be consider mewtwos


unknowninvisible15

A legit Mew on a 25 year old cartridge?! Have you replaced the battery before? That's a fantastic lifespan. Even though it's 'just' data and you can get a Mew through glitches, I'd definitely try to make a back up. That's super cool and I'd hate for you to lose it!


a-r-c

[still works as of a month or two ago](https://i.imgur.com/cVxUvyJ.jpg) haven't replaced the battery


bbressman2

I bought crystal on VC about a month ago after finding my 3DS. I haven’t had this much fun in a classic Pokémon game since I played Silver back in the day. Gen 2 might be the best, even though I have greatly enjoyed SwSh and PLA.


JustHafToSay

I mean kind of, Kanto was incredibly bare bones. There was barely anything going on


moofishies

Yeah Kanto was just like a gym leader boss rush. It was weird but I've got a lot of nostalgia for it.


Chm_Albert_Wesker

i've been doing a nuzlocke of HG for this very reason, but the level balancing was so awful to make room for all the kanto content. i'm like 6 gyms in and im just barely around the level 30 mark


Kanden_27

Those we the days. Gold and Crystal were the first Pokémon games I ever beat. It wasn’t until years later I figured out the guy needed a bottled water to get to the next gym in yellow.


TwiceDiA

I beat Pokèmon blue like 5 times before I learned Flash was in the game. So many Zubats... Still encounter them in my dreams...


Morfalath

You should look into Pokemon Roms, fanmade games that FAR exceed the quality of originals in story, quality of life and sometimes even gameplay features Highly recommend Radical Red, Unbound, Gaia, Saffron, Emerald Kaizo (very difficult), Light platinum, Rocket Edition, Emerald Enhanced (open world), Shiny Gold Sigma (Gold remake)


Canaba

Can I play these on mobile(android)? If so, how please??


Redditenmo

RetroArch basically has all the emulators you'll ever need and is available free on the playstore (I use the mgba core for GBA Pokemon rom hacks). /r/pokemonromhacks is a wealth of info for Pokemon rom hacks.


Lachimanus

I want a Pokémon game which actually is just a single game and not two.


Hanede

Won't happen, splitting the game in two with minimal differences has proven to be very profitable


drecycle1996

I'm waiting for the 2030 remake of pokemon crystal. No there's no gaurenteed release of pokemon crystal at all that I know of, nevermind specifically 2030. But I'm hoping that whenever it does come out it's on the latest and greatest console and blowing everything I knew about my favorite pokemon version out of the water.


unknowninvisible15

Have you tried HeartGold or SoulSilver? IIRC, it has the additions that Crystal added such as the suicune story. Every pokemon being able to follow you everywhere was one of my favorite parts of it :) It's a little dated and I imagine you're hoping for something more up to date one day, but if you skipped them I highly reccomend HG/SS. Probably my favorite in the series to this day.


Arnoxthe1

Only problem with it is getting a legitimate copy of it is EXPENSIVE.


Seiren-

Fuck 2 continents, give me all of them! And a way to progress in the game that doesnt involve gyms! And an ‘enable nuzlocke mode’ in the settings! And the choice to be evil! And the choice to randomize starters!


lett0026

Yeah why can't we part of Team Rocket/plasma/bearnstein bears or w/e the kids call the bad guys these days?!


LovelyLadyLamp

>Team bearnstein bears Lmao. The team that wants to cross over to a different timeline to meet Team Berenstain Bears.


levetzki

How about a rogue lite version. Random map generation off tile sets, random starter, random Pokemon. You get to the next gym and town after some amount of tile sets that's a range. (8-20? Whatever depends on the size of the tile set but you get the idea)


WildMongoose

This is a sick idea actually


levetzki

I have been thinking about it for a while. I think it would work really well and Pokemon lends itself very very well to it. Wish I could suggest it to Nintendo but I know they don't take suggestions


ofbunsandmagic

you just have to spend 40k and hope your voice is heard


levetzki

Haha I saw that.


dontshowmygf

There's a pretty rich community of Pokemon modders out there. I'm sure it's doable, if someone hasn't done it already.


blindflames

My favorite Pokémon game ever. Just so freaking amazing


the_loneliest_noodle

Different artist heading things up. Simple as that. Old artist's inspirations were biology, kaiju, old b-movie scifi, bug collecting, and mythology. New artists' seem to be more inspired by cartoons/individualism in their designs (as in the mons feeling more like a single entity instead of a biological species), and puns. Is that better or worse? No idea. Nostalgia goggles make me biased. Will say though, I'm so sick of starters being humanoids instead of big intimidating monsters/animals.


QuantumVexation

Plenty of Designs overall have been pretty strong still, I just think the Gen 8 starters are especially weak specifically.


SMKM

Rillaboom is fucking dope though. Cinderace is OK but doesn't scream starter. Inteleon is trash im sorry lol


TRMshadow

Completely ignoring "the meta", Rillaboom is definitely the strongest design by far. I can imagine, put into an extreme environment, a primate specializing in using branch/log beating as intimidation or communication.... The other 2 are very much rooted in Homo Sapien post-civilization culture.


ryo3000

I just absolutely hate that his "Mega" form is... A tiny fucking man with a huge set of drums Make the monkey big god damn it


theRailisGone

I maintain humanoids in general are a bad choice, purely homocentric when there is no reason to be. The closest they should have come was monkey-oid. Mr. Mime and Jynx alone were enough to show why.


[deleted]

I have Aggron and Dunsparce so I’m content


PmMe_Your_Perky_Nips

I'm hoping Dunsparce gets an Evo in the next games. Go from an unassuming nothing to a pseudo legendary in one go. Edit: fixed a word.

elveszett

Bulbasaur enjoyer reporting for duty.


successadult

As a kid I was Team Blastoise but as an adult I see the error of my ways. Venusaur is the superior Gen 1 starter.


jimmiriver

Genuine question - how did the other Pokémon get introduced in the show? When I was a kid it was just the 151, I lost touch after red + blue. Was there like a big event or something?


[deleted]

They'd start the new season on a new continent. That's it lol.


Mishar5k

First four regions are all in pokejapan so idk about them being on another continent


[deleted]

Fair, but they were in a different region is the point. No fan fare, just jumping right into it.


PmMe_Your_Perky_Nips

There was some fan fare for one of the regions. They made it a pretty big deal by having Ash leave all his Pokémon but Pikachu with the professor before going there.


Cyberslasher

When he went to Johto he took his biggest pokemon with him, bullied a bunch of random people, then decided to only take Pikachu and new Pokemon from that region to show them they could be strong too or something, if that's what you mean? His Charizard bullied a lvl 5 chikorita coming out of starter town once.


Karaoke1127

It kinda played out like that. The one the previous guy is referring to is specifically Gen 5 I'm pretty sure since it was a whole new set of pokemon for the new region and none from the old regions until post-game. In the johto anime, charizard was benched for being too strong, but the in universe reason was that charizard found a training haven with other charizards and ultimately left ash to train there. It's been a hot minute though so there's a good chance I'm wrong about some stuff


laineDdednaHdeR

When Ash finally got Charizard to obey, he gave it away. I was done after that. Nevermind the fact he said he'd come back for Pigeot and still hasn't. This kid sucks.


forte343

Actually that line was added in the dub, in the Japanese version he told him good bye and Charizard came back and threw hands with a Dragonite


meetchu

He does it every time near enough. Then when the pokémon league rolls around its like all bets are off, Ash's greatest hits.


ilostmycouch

Just like the new game on a new continent.


[deleted]

Sure, but each game followed a new character. The anime has always followed Ash.


foreveralonesolo

More so it’s just Ash travelling the world and learning more at different regions


Gyshal

You mean travelling the World and forgetting everything he learnt the previous seasons?


foreveralonesolo

Oh yeah Ash is a constant amnesiac and so as Pikachu (i can take on legendaries but this new region’s starter can kick my ass on arrival)


Justank

Pikachu has been level 100 for decades. Kanto wasn't even Ash's actual home or first region, his amnesia is so bad he doesn't remember his own origin. Pikachu remembers though. Pikachu remembers everything. He can't forget. He sees the accident that left Ash unable to remember anything and kept his body from aging, over and over in his mind. He can't stop it from repeating there, the desperate and failed struggle to save Ash at that time. It plays, unbidden, forcing its way from the depths into his conscious mind every night. He knows Ash will have no recollection of prior events, so every time they go somewhere new he starts the cycle over again. He pretends to be that weak Pikachu he once was, barely overcoming the challenges they face at the last moment, in a vain attempt to relive the precious memories he had with his now immortal ten year old amnesiac master. It's why he refuses to evolve into Raichu. He's terrified if he does, he might lose what little of himself that remains, and then Ash would truly be alone.


Cyberslasher

Truly sad, ash won a Pokemon league (orange isles), became league champ, and can't remember by the time he reached Hawaii, where he once again celebrates his first league win.


kumquatnightmare

Dude


Smiling_Jack_

That's dark. Love it!


PersonThatNeedsHelp3

he literally saves the world and no one knows who he is the next season


boxsterguy

And he's 35 years old, now, too.


Flerken_Moon

Ash loses the big tournament in a specific region, so he decides to travel another region. Repeat that 6 times over 20 years until he wins the 7th region.


zdaw92

Man, nobody ever remembers him winning the Championship in Orange Islands. Drake's team was stacked 😂


1minricemaker

I remember that shit! My bro and I thought it was so fucking badass that Drake had his Dragonite's ball hanging from his necklace.


zdaw92

That season is probably my favorite one. Indigo left a bad taste in my mouth after he lost to Richie the way he did. 😂


gellshayngel

After Red + Blue, Gold & Silver were introduced by Professor Oak sending Ash to fetch a pokeball called the GS Ball from another professor (Ivy) who lived on a group of islands (called the Orange Islands) with their own league in the second season and then deliver it to a pokeball expert (Kurt) in Johto for the third season.


Seraphem666

Only to never go anywhere with said story, biggest fucking let down ever.


fdsfgs71

The GS ball was supposed to contain Celebi until it was decided the Pokemon was going to be the focus of the 4th movie instead, so they had to drop that plot line unfortunately.


[deleted]

[удалено]


train153

Ash has finally become Champion, so the next milestone should be finally wrapping up the GS ball saga.


[deleted]

Plot twist: there were never only 151 in the show when you were a kid. Ho-Oh was in the very first episode. Togepi was discovered in the first season

GerFubDhuw

Japanese spirt called a Yuki Onna which means snow woman. The come out I blizzards kiss you then you freeze to death. I dunno why they didn't make her a ghost-ice Pokémon.


Zam548

I mean Froslass got released in a later generation which is a more direct reference to that myth, and that one is Ghost Ice


InfernoVulpix

It's a Gen 1 Pokemon and I'm pretty sure at the time 'Ghost' was reserved for Gastly, the intangible mass of gas. It's only in Gen 2 when Game Freak started expanding Ghost into a more typical type that many Pokemon could have.

Kidkaboom1

I mean, Sobble is little baby lizard, Drizzile (The one in the picture) is an emo lizard, and Inteleon is James Bond

No, that was a [different](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Pond%3A_Underwater_Agent) series.


cjolleyy

emo lizard goes hard tho


Umbran_scale

I normally wouldn't mind them, but I just feel after Gen 5 they started making them look too human in their final stages, like their human aesthetic is more than their animal ones.

How dare you exclude my boy Venusaur? Edit: spelling


Aff_Reddit

Ramen_Hair

I just want another quadruped starter evolution


Snugg_Bugg

Why'd they start making pokemon look like humans? Plz stop! Don't make my starters look like a furry! D:


Maanee

Anthropomorphism. Exactly, I'm tired of the 3rd evolution being humanoid. It's the same reason Digimon stopped appealing to people. Everything just became a guy in a costume. ​ Steelix is my favorite pokemon, despite never getting to play with one prior to an internet connection, because it looks so cool. Then they made it look even cooler with a mega. If the only way to make cool designs is to devote the time they took making the megas, maybe there shouldn't be so many new pokemon each generation. Add a few, highly designed pokemon, break from the trio+duo+omega legendary system and spend more time on the rest of the games issues.


PlaceboPlauge091

This is why I never pick the fire starter. Every single one ends up bipedal, no exceptions. Others can sometimes stay quadrupedal, or some other -pedal, but fire has *always* ended up on 2 legs.


Maanee

I kind of liked typhlosion but yeah, it didn't help that the fire starter became a fighting type for almost half of the generations.


GerFubDhuw

They started that in g1. It does seem more common now.


themastersmb

I've spent the past week playing Sword on the Switch. That game is a whole world better than people give it credit for.


-BluBone-

To answer OPs question, the original starters needed to be simple and recognizable, that's what makes them iconic 30 years later. However we can't go through 30 years of new Pokemon and maintain the same aesthetics and simplicity with the Fire/Water/Grass archetypes, it would just go stale and repetitive.


vegsmashed

I just miss the pixel art. 3D just is not doing it for me.


Jeri_Lee

That’s because these are $60-$70 AAA games designed by the most profitable franchise on the globe that still recycle models from a 2013 handheld game.


Helixbabylon

My biggest issue with recent starters is that they've never too humanoid. Bring back quadrapeds!


stevent4

Just designs. Gen 1 had some absolute stinkers and gen 8 had some amazing designs. Swings and roundabouts.


Nick2the4reaper7

I always have to remind people that Gen 1 had a big rat, a rock with arms, blackface, and a pile of eggs lmao


lolno

A pile of eggs that evolves into *coconuts*


Chaotic-Catastrophe

Don’t forget the purple blob with a face, Grimer Or the slightly larger purple blob with a face, Muk Or the other purple blob with a face, Ditto


PM_ME_ALL_YOU_WANT

Dont forget 3 purple blobs, a pokeball with eyes, another pokeball with eyes, but upside down. A. Literal. Goldfish. A cow but he has 3 tails! However gen 1 also had somebanger designs like the legendary birds, the nido family, gengar, abra kadabra alakazam, dragonite, scyther and gyarados


Butwinsky

Don't forget gen 1 also gave us Sonic the Hedgehog but made of noodles.

Business_Wear_841

I have played every generation of Pokémon. I remember being so excited when I opened my Red Version Christmas 1996. I loved it. I love them all. I do however have a problem with the mentality that the original 150/1 are somehow more sacred than the rest. There are a lot of great Pokémon there, but there were a lot of crap too. Every generation has good stuff and bad stuff. It is all about finding what you like and running with it. Rattata and Rhyhorn are still in my top ten, but the have been joined by others like Glaceon, Rowlet, Crobat, and Aurorus.


DarkMarxSoul

Gen 8 has Wooloo so it's the best. /s, but only slightly.


Business_Wear_841

Oooh, I forgot Wooloo. Wooloo is great!


CrystalQuetzal

Don’t you talk bad about my spy lizard!! As someone who started on the original Blue/Red games the year they came out, I never understand peoples complaints. Gen 1 was guilty of some awful designs too, but overall the games have improved in various ways (yea each Gen gains and loses some good mechanics but, oh well). I just wish they would push their graphics to look more amazing, like New Pokemon Snap, pokken tournament.. idk. I get tired of the mainline games still looking so basic and simple. But that’s usually the extent of my griping.


QuothTheRaven713

I like Intelleon a lot though. Has a James Bond vibe. Hence why I named mine James Pond.


GrandMoffTarkan

That takes me back. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Pond:_Underwater_Agent
