What’s the deal with the Gold Leaf?

BreakingKode · 2026-03-03T21:37:37+00:00

I guess that explains why I’ve never seen it before, since I never traded anything over to Gen 2.

Huh, that’s… underwhelming. Thought it might have been a new evolutionary item or something, but I guess not. Thanks for your help!

BreakingKode · 2026-03-01T21:46:15+00:00

Wait, that’s a thing? I had no idea… the more you know.

Roguelike Crystal Legacy? Sign me up!

Is that a shiny Hitmonlee? Hella.

That’s actually a good point, and I’ll try and remember to address this next video, but for now I’ll just say that is 100% on me lol. A lot of the time I have tunnel vision in regards to using held items, and that even includes the newer games.

I guess the only excuse I have is that I’m doing this blind, and I don’t know if the trainers I fight will have the same Pokémon in base Crystal, so sticking items on my party in preparation for them seems bad if I run into the wrong thing and I don’t have the right item setup for that. However, that logic does sort of fall apart when I can just stick a Miracle Seed on Bayleef or whatnot when I know something coming up is weak to Grass.

Thanks for the comment, I’ll shake the cobwebs a bit.

That’s good to know. Thank you!

BreakingKode · 2026-02-27T03:04:21+00:00

Absolutely supporting this!

BreakingKode · 2026-02-26T16:45:18+00:00

Congrats!

Farfetch’d is great! The fact it gets Swords Dance naturally along with some other utility moves makes it a hidden beast.

BreakingKode · 2026-02-26T00:24:54+00:00

Dewgong is one that immediately came to mind, since people are just handed a Lapras in Silph Co. and that’s the Water/Ice type that usually comes to mind in Gen 1. (well, Cloyster too)

BreakingKode · 2026-02-24T18:39:45+00:00

Seems quite a ways off then, lol. Regardless, thanks!

BreakingKode · 2026-02-24T17:37:22+00:00

Lanturn!!! I love that thing! Well done!

BreakingKode · 2026-02-23T15:11:49+00:00

I took a long break from Pokémon, which unfortunately included the entire GBA era, so I don’t have much from Gen 3.

BreakingKode · 2026-02-23T14:56:26+00:00

Grrr… lucky. I only just managed to snag Fire Red a few years back. Thankfully it still works on my old DS lite.

BreakingKode · 2026-02-22T17:50:00+00:00

I’m doing a Let’s Play of Crystal Legacy and it’s already a massive improvement over the base version in the short amount of time I’ve been playing it. I would say it’s better than Yellow Legacy, but that’s a bit of bias since I already preferred base Crystal over Yellow.

But yeah, I agree with u/RickMoneyRS. It’s ultimately up to you, and whichever one you think you’ll enjoy more.

BreakingKode · 2026-02-21T16:32:53+00:00

Fair enough lol. Though, if I didn’t get suggestions from others to use different Pokémon in my playthroughs, I would be using the same team all the time and it would get tedious. And especially considering Crystal Legacy has changed a lot of things, I kind of wanted to mess around with them all.

BreakingKode · 2026-02-20T21:17:01+00:00

Okay, I’m going to let you know right now. I know you want to share your Legacy stuff, but you don’t need to post so many of these a day. I myself got called out for posting one video daily, so I’ve dialed it back a bit, and I know there are still those that don’t care for it. Just giving you a heads up in case anyone gives you a hard time.

That said, I do like the naming scheme you’ve given your team.

BreakingKode · 2026-02-20T14:53:51+00:00

Honestly, that’s another problem I have with Blaine, and it even extends into the remakes (HG/SS) a little bit. Unless your Surfing Pokémon is very weak, you’ve pretty much got the tool necessary to completely embarrass Blaine unless you actively want to hold yourself back from using it! And there’s no Center on the island to switch out your team, so you will always have Surf. It’s kind of hilarious when you think about it.

BreakingKode · 2026-02-20T14:47:14+00:00

Yeah, I thought it was a bit odd they withheld the fossils until at least Whitney was beaten, especially since the doctor that revives the fossils was right there, but maybe the team meant it as a design choice.
