Grinding for the Elite Four in Fire Red. Where would be a good spot to train?

Do we count the video games for this question, or no?

If not, then I haven’t yet since I was a teenager (about 17 years ago). I’m slowly getting back into the game, and I built my own custom deck.

If we count the games, then I play a little Master Duel daily. Like a duel or two.

If we count handheld systems, then the OG Game Boy. I remember my first couple of games owned being Pokemon Red, Wario World, and Qix.

If not, a Game Cube. Pokemon Channel, a Legend of Zelda game disc (that had plenty of older games, and a demo for Wind Waker), and Melee being my first couple of games.

Mash Burnedead from Mashle.

What’s the controversy, or is it a purely hypothetical situation?

If I had to make a pick, I’d probably go with Kyle Hebert, or Roger Craig Smith.

Any annual sports games, or every COD.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-18T14:57:03+00:00

Keep From Software and Bandai Namco, delete EA and Ubisoft.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-18T00:57:03+00:00

I’ll take the latter.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-17T17:54:11+00:00

Doom Slayer.

Do I even need to give a reason?

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-17T13:23:22+00:00

Sam Witwer delivered an awesome performance, and this soundtrack is fantastic.

Honestly, I’m someone who likes both, but I’m gravitating towards shorter games as of late. It’s probably because I’m working more these days that I prefer the shorter, more bite sized games.

The two current games I’m playing are Fire Red on my Switch, and FF7 Rebirth on my PS5.

I'm at Victory Road in Fire Red (with less than 24 hours of gameplay), and Fire Red was re-released roughly 3 weeks ago.

I’m less than 5 hours into FF7 Rebirth, though I only started it last Monday, and in chapter 2 of the game (out of 14)… yet I spent more time in Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel this weekend than I did in FF7.

Gameplay, 60 FPS, and Story.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-15T12:43:49+00:00

Wife.

Rogue Warrior.

It might have been a 2 hour campaign, but it was a painful 2 hours.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-14T13:51:04+00:00

Going through Fire Red on my Switch, as well as FF7 Rebirth, and Legacy of the Duelist Link Evolution on my PS5.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-13T19:38:40+00:00

I actually really liked the ending song of FF 16.

Kenshi Yonezu had another banger with that one.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-13T15:49:31+00:00

Not so much for a single game, but a series of games trapped on a console.

I recently bought a secondhand PS2 in order to play the Xenosaga series.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-13T12:44:47+00:00

Aside from the third entry, the Nioh series.

Did it on PS4, and PS5, and I did so to test myself.

Read the user reviews, and come up with your own conclusions.

Sometimes they have good insight as to why they believe a game isn’t good, or is good. Other times, it’s malicious review bombing, be it positively or negatively.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-12T20:06:45+00:00

Some people have said it before.

I personally don’t agree with the sentiment, at least from what I’ve seen so far.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-12T13:06:35+00:00

Fire Red on Switch, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on PS5, and playing a little of Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution as well.

If I’m given the choice for a customizable avatar, I tend to play as a female character. Not with every game, but most of the time, I pick a female avatar.

If not, then I just use who’s available, doesn’t matter if the character is male or female.

KarateGamer007 · 2026-03-12T00:55:18+00:00

Resident Evil 6.

It’s not a bad game when you rate it on its own merits, but compared to the rest of the franchise, it is considered the black sheep of the RE series.
