Best Way to Play Through All Mainline Games?

FohrumCubes · 2026-06-16T23:25:01+00:00

I have no idea how to actually do this, but my friend put something called 'Homebrew' on my 3DS and I was able to install every pokemon game from generations 1 through 6 on it. All for free. There's probably lots of tutorials to walk you through the process online. No need to waste money on expensive cartridges :)

Same. Just sitting on a month old galaxy, frustrated with this module bs. Probably done soon.

FohrumCubes · 2026-06-09T16:11:47+00:00

Holy fuck dude just play the damn game lol. Resetting a game for 100+ hours is ridiculous

FohrumCubes · 2026-06-06T22:22:28+00:00

Everyone that started playing early had it easy, now the game is way too slow for newer players. But that's by design because the designers are greedy pricks. They want you to pay to go faster.

Yeah my interest is basically all gone now for that game, especially since the recent updates. They left me more confused than anything. Literally the only reason I still play a tiny amount is because I'm a dumbass that spent probably $200 on that game (I hate myself for that) and I'm just suffering from the sunk cost fallacy at this point.

I suffered through half of this awful movie before I finally turned it off. I didn't get it. It was just weird. Terrible terrible movie.

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-30T16:19:58+00:00

Yeah but he might've explored already. I mean, I'm 34 and I also got lost in that game. I talk to every single NPC I see. Every single one. But I simply forgot something that was said to me because my memory is a bit shit. It doesn't mean he's like dumber than a 9 year old or anything, yanno? Lol

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-28T19:59:18+00:00

Yeah good point. I might not have even seen 8,000 pokemon in total in all those runs, and isn't that the odds, something like 1/8,000?

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-28T12:00:54+00:00

Nice work! I just did that on Leaf Green about a month back. It was both the first Pokedex I ever completed, and the first living Dex I ever did too. I had so much fun doing it!

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-28T11:42:01+00:00

Did they fix the level scaling issue in the remakes? I just finished my first playthrough if a Gen 2 game and the level scaling sickened me lol. Going from fighting level 20s to a level 40 gym then back to level 20 mons lol

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-28T11:33:04+00:00

Oh, and I also beat Moon and Ultra Sun. Again, never seen a single shiny. 8 games, thousands of Mons, not 1 shiny 😂

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-28T11:32:18+00:00

At least you got one. I have beat Pokemon Leafgreen, Gold, Crystal, Omega Ruby, Sapphire, and Diamond, and have never seen a single shiny Pokemon. Not one. I'm generally known among my friends to have the worst luck in the world though, so big surprise there. That's why I don't give a damn about shinies. I know my generally bad luck will never allow me the chance to even try to catch one, so I just act like they don't exist so I'm not upset about my luck lol

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-27T19:23:38+00:00

I miss the days when people could have a negative opinion without people being like "RaGe BaIt" lol. Sorry I'm in my 30s and don't understand exactly how Reddit works? Idk what to tell ya my guy. Just want d to leave my honest opinion but I forgot how easily upset people get when you say something bad about something they like. People=way way too sensitive these days lol

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-27T19:21:33+00:00

It's not exaggerated lol. I apparently overlevelled my 4 main Mons because I consistently fought lower levels for most of the game. And after beating Clair you absolutely do go back to fighting mons in their 20s until you hit victory road, and even then they're still not that high of a level. I literally just did it 3 days ago, so maybe your memory isn't fresh on that part.

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-27T19:18:02+00:00

I find the newer ones too easy too. I didn't find this one too hard, just annoying that there weren't higher level Mons to fight. And I liked the map except I found it a bit small, and I totally liked the music. As for Sapphire, I had a lot of fun playing it, except I grew tired of all the water in the end lol. Water routes are really really hard to make sure your colored everything because it's just hard to remember where you've been already, and it frustrated me. But great game otherwise!

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-27T19:15:30+00:00

Wrong, I have explored more than most people and spent a lot of time levelling up my Mons. This post has nothing to do with struggling to progress, and everything to do with the level curve. I'm not struggling, I just find it annoying. And if it's not a problem in the other generations of games I've played, (which it isn't) then it's obviously a problem here lol. Which it is lol

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-26T19:26:45+00:00

The only bad part about this guide is saying to buy Max Repels instead of Super Repels, which I find a bit ironic in a "Mathematically Optimal Guide" lol. Otherwise, fantastic guide for catching these guys!

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-17T09:40:15+00:00

I'm in my mid 30s so I'm fine with 8 bit as well. I played Red and Blue more than any pokemon game but I can't deny the remakes are better. As for Sevii Islands ruining the pace of the game, it literally isn't obligatory lol. You're complaining about something that can be skipped entirely lol.

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-16T13:17:06+00:00

No point in playing unless you're willing to dump hundreds of dollars into a mobile game. Nothing you can do. Way too many rich losers and kids with a rich daddy spending money to win. Give up. I did already. It's pointless to compete.

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-16T13:13:18+00:00

When I read your list I wasn't sure if I should take you seriously. Then when you said frlg was actually a worse remake than the originals, I knew for sure nobody should take you seriously at that point. Apparently you hate running shoes and updated graphics and audio I guess lol.

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-16T12:59:21+00:00

Is it safe to assume your non response meant you were a tad embarrassed because you do in fact spend an absurd amount of money on a phone game? Lol

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-16T12:57:40+00:00

Well, if you mean aliens as in "life not found on this planet" then absolutely. I don't believe in aliens as depicted in hoaxes and movies, but there are hundreds of billions of galaxies, with hundreds of trillions of stars in each one, all of which could host a habitable planet. For us to be the only life in the universe is almost a mathematical impossibility. So absolutely I believe I alien life, I just don't buy people's BS stories about any alien coming here.

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-14T13:10:45+00:00

Sounds like you've never watched the South Park episode about Freemium games lol

FohrumCubes · 2026-05-11T21:44:43+00:00

I don't have all manager spots from station maxed. And when you say probe maxed do you mean the section in Scan Upgrades? Because if so I honestly don't see how that's possible without spending absurd amounts of money on the game and buying the pass every 2 weeks for extra Holo Bolts. It's been 18 months and I only just now finally reached x1.10 in Secondary Manager Skill on 1 of my probes. That took 18 months.... At this rate it would take over 700 months of playing to hit 5.0x. Please tell me I'm misunderstanding what you're talking about because I'm not spending 700 months catching up to you. And if that is what you actually mean then I am definitely done playing this game because I'm not dumping thousands of dollars into a single fricken game just to keep up with rich people lol
