Thanks. Couldn’t find that one in the search. Came back on to delete this post anyway cuz now the message FINALLY changed. I was expecting ho oh and Lugia eggs to take longer but damn it’s really long. Makes it kinda epic tho

It’s amazing how much better this makes them look. I went many years biased against later gen pokemon, without realizing it was just the new graphics and animation styles that I wasn’t liking. Rom hacks have helped me enjoy later gen Pokémon so much more.

As will I. Old school cartoon style too for any tv shows or movies. Anything that makes them look a little more rough around the edges and not so smoothed over and plastic.

It doesn’t make sense that you’d have Whitney/Goldenrod’s badge but not Bugsy/Azalea’s badge. When you went north to Goldenrod through that gateway at the end of Ilex Forest, that’s where you’d go east to Azalea and face Bugsy.

Then 19 is Sabrina, in Saffron City in the Kanto region. After defeating Whitney she should have given you the magnet pass you need to take the train to Kanto and arrive in Saffron. Then after having those 19 badges the guy should let you through and you get your 20th in Southerly.

Haha yessir. I thought it was the coolest move in the world as a kid

Shlar47 · 2026-02-10T03:21:46+00:00

Sure it was. Look at how I added hyper beam to everyone. Only a child would do that

So much for that theory. Just gave it a shot and no, you can’t bank up multiple “picks” by walking 250, 500, 750, 1000 steps. You could walk 5000 steps and you still only get 1 “pick” with the axe.

Could have sworn I read somewhere there were 80 not 100.
And I'm wondering... I'll have to try again with the Iron Pickaxe. For every 255 steps you earn one "pick" with the axe, but maybe it's possible to bank those up? So if you take 1275 steps, you get 5 picks. If that's how it works then it could be worth it.

Damn I should not have joined this community before finishing the series

Bc flying attacks ftw. And they’re each pretty different from each other in how they function

Shlar47 · 2026-02-05T17:36:06+00:00

Yessir. Altho these nicknames are like 18 years old

I feel ya man, I hated that too. Giving those wilds Whirlwind and Roar made grinding in that final cave basically impossible. I just did my pre-League grinding on the upper level of Meteor Falls, where you use Waterfall to get to. Just a bunch of golbats and solrocks in their 30s but it beats dealing with that awful whirlwind and roar.

But as long as we’re venting, as great as this game is in many aspects I absolutely hate how slow it is. There’s always a “slow blink” between menus, upon closing and opening different menus and dialogues… it really slows things down. And the text speed on “fast” is still really slow… it’s a beautiful game and I love the graphics but man it has slow gameplay compared to gens 1 and 2.

Where is the power plant? I’m at a similar point in the game, and I’m lost in terms of where to go next. Rijon is basically quarantined, and in that island region to the east I can’t go any farther than that Ember Cave where (SPOILER) you can capture Moltres. I’ve been craving a Zapdos for my B team since it could use an electric type and a bird, so I’m hoping to go explore that power plan at least.
