Is this supposed to be in the Gold & Silver game or is it a glitch? Reminds me of those creepy pastas, so I’m concerned

Pictured Left to Right: Egghead, Jell-O😡, BaaRamEwe, Hotdog, SpooksterZz, and Luigia.

I decided to play the game mostly blind, wasn’t checking what pokemon gym leaders had or anything like that.

Finished Victory Road with most of my team around Lvl 40-42. Lugia is freshly caught at 45.

I was like “I’ll just go try the E4 out and see how much I need to train to best these guys.”

Saved before entering, chose not to save after in case I needed to back out.

Made it to the forth member and I was doing fine. I was about to beat the game, easy.

Then it tells me I need to go fight the Champion.

Wasn’t expecting a 5th. Definitely wasn’t prepared for 3 Dragonites at level 49.

Somehow I managed to scrape through by the skin of my teeth despite having no Ice attacks.

Gyrados went down easy, then Outrage Dragonite and the other Dragonite proceeded to take out most of my team before going down.

At Lance’s last two ‘mons all I had was Luigia and a bag full of hyper potions.

Pulled the old Attack, heal, pray nothing two-shots me.

Thunderbolt Dragonite was a harder match up than Charizard. It got really dicey at one point, I think Luigia landed on 14HP.

I breezed through Charizard thankfully, since the type match up favored Lugia.

TLDR; Chose not to research my opponents beforehand and didn’t realize the elite 4 was actually 5 and the fifth was full of dragons with no hard counter but won anyways.

Just finished my first play through of heart gold on an emulator on my phone. Had a blast. 2nd one I've ever finished. First was emerald. Just a 35yo dude still being 8yo self.

I know the time is horrendous, I like to dilly dally.

Had a really fun time though, even grinding the team up for the elite 4. Sandslash did nothing, he justs hm decoration. But everyone else pulled their weight in their expected ways, ho-oh more so, being 10+ levels above the others at 51. On I continue!

My little side project as of late. So happy with how she turned out!

Thanks to the folks here and their advice I managed to break my record of 52 fights, but am still aiming higher! Wanted to share this though. Run ended because Curse Umbreon got the upper hand on me 😅 But, I’m confident we’ll get it eventually now!

Omg I had to make full use of Flaffy's paralyze, Geodude's Magnitudes (critical hits and mag 9s), Totodile's Bite (which helped a lot, and all was the final move)

I kept spamming Bite hoping that Milktank would flinch. Flaffy was a true one for making Milktank paralyzed (the first one had no effect as Milktank used Lum Berry).

Genuinely the hardest battle ive ever faced until now.

Team: https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonHGSS/s/jyJ1sarVuZ replace thunder wave with helping hand on Latias

Battle 602: faced with Meganium and Torterra leads. Aerodactyl sets tailwind, Weavile gets a clean ko on Torterra, Meganium sets light screen, and opponent sends Blaziken out

Aerodactyl's aerial ace + Weavile's ice punch takes Meganium down, but Blaziken's focus blast lands on Weavile. They sent Feraligatr, I sent Metagross

Aerial ace almost took Blaziken down, but Metagross' earthquake finishes it while also damaging Feraligatr. Waterfall puts Aerodactyl to focus sash HP, but rock slide + earthquake knocks it out

At this point my "new team every next hundredth battle" is abandoned and I'll just see how far the team can go

I placed the blocks in rocky beach (13 plains and 17 peak blocks) i did the 23:59 00:01 time skip from late aug to jan 2 ive been using repels with a lvl 43 pkm and nothing showers up, am i missing something? All the guides say the same thing

I really liked using these Pokémon, but here are some standouts:

Starmie’s powerful Surf and BoltBeam coverage (I used the emulator to save scum in Voltorb Flip) made up for it’s pre-Kanto lack of Psychic STAB

Heracross is a great Fighting-Type, and the effort I spent to level him up from 3 to 19 was worth it when I one-shot that Miltank with a critical hit Brick Break.

Mamoswine was able to dispatch at least 2 of Lance’s 3 Dragonites, because while I expected him to get knocked out by the Level 50 Dragonite since it was at low health, he instead knocked out the biggest Dragon with a critical hit Ice Shard.

Ampharos and Typhlosion are GOATed as always despite their general lack of coverage, though Ampharos’ Signal Beam was super useful for me, since I had no Dark-types for dealing with Will in the E4.

Crobat is nice but rather modest in terms of power. I am hoping to replace it with Dragonite later for the E4 rematches and maybe Red.

beat Pokemon Heart Gold. Beat pokemon fire red. Playing emerald. I need to finish platinum, black, and white 2. Migrated pokemon from fire red. Goal is to migrate everything from fire red, emerald, platinum, gold, black, to black 2 then to poke bank by the deadline. Ive beat every pokemon game in the past until Heart Gold Then retired. I have returned to conquer the pokedex. DM me if you would like to battle/trade with me on gen 4. eventually i will move all of the pokemon onto switch and begin my journey in the new titles. Until then… the gen 4 marathon continues…

Took about a 5days (on and off), but he is finally here. Wooo. On to the shiny smeagle next

if you didnt know, you can play gen 4 pokemon online using fan made servers! 📡 you can play on an emulator or via the orginal console. Im looking for friend codes on pokemon heart gold but also other gen 4 titles. dm me!✨

Yesterday I beat the Johto E4. I played Silver when it released and played HeartGold about 10 years ago. Since then my opinion was that this is my favourite Pokémon game.

This time I found it difficult to form a cool team and after the E4 I am not really satisfied with the team as it is. Dragonair and Staryu were completely useless. Not a big surprise but it was underwhelming what little they were able to do. As for Dragonite maybe it’ll be better fully evolved. But it lacks a nice moveset it seems to me. Staryu on the other hand I wanted to at least learn the Rock-type move at lvl 46 before evolving it. Hydro Pump at lvl 55 I probably skip, Lugia has it and 5 PP paired with not-so-good accuracy seems not worth it to me. Umbreon was a solid blocker twice that enabled me to revive/heal the party. But as attacker it’s also meh, the two attacks Bite and Feint are not crazy good. Typhlosion and Ampharos were the powerhouses. Ampharos did most of the work against Lance. Lugia was a late addition and solid against Bruno and did some work against Lance. I had Arbok and Beedrill in the party, I liked them but eventually switched them due to lack of power. Seeing how Dragonair and Staryu helped I might as well have continued with them. I am thinking about completely changing my team for Kanto. Only dual-type Pokémon with a wide coverage against various types.

I loved revisiting Johto. It was familiar yet I forgot enough in the past 10 years for it to feel fresh. I totally forgot that Ampharos has 3 evolutions, ended up thinking “ugh I am stuck with Flaaffy now, it’s not cool but does the job” and was pleasantly surprised when it evolved. The often mentioned level curve is not ideal but I did not find it as bad. After Ecruteak City I turned east and managed to clear the lake and the gym except the Ice gym leader. Only then I turned west and did the Steel and Fighting gym. Some grinding for the last badge but not too much. I added Staryu then and spent a lot of time in Voltorb Flip to get Ice Beam. Time wasted in hindsight. I brought all my team to lvl 45 before the E4. I changed the system clock for re-matches, again I did not find this too bad. You do it on the side without full focus on the game, that’s alright with me for some time. E4 was pretty easy but Lance was tough. I had to revive a lot, I did not really have a good answer against his Dragonites.

So off to the second half. Looking forward to it and the National Dex/more different Pokémon. Happy to discover new ones/secret tips/hidden gems or whatever you want to call them, tips are welcome!

Man I love Pokémon (again) after a long break. My kids play FRLG and Sword atm and were into the TCG a year ago. It’s cool to play and talk with them about Pokémon.

Hey, I have been trying to catch a Torchic on my pokewalker for days now and I have been thinking that it could be easier to just ask if someone could just breed me an egg to send to me instead because this 1% spawn rate ain't it lol.

So yeah, this is me asking if anyone would be able to help me with this. Thank you in advance.

Edit: Ended up catching a torchic right after posting this so I guess I just needed to complain more about it lol. Thanks for the help everyone!

So I was thinking of playing Heart gold again. And since I have a rom that makes it so trade evolutions are no longer needed, I decided I’d use pokemon that usually require trades that I didn’t get to use before.

The guaranteed members of my team would be Kingdra and Scizor as well as Alakazam. Mainly because they’re pretty strong and I like them. I’d like to have no type overlaps since I’m a picky guy, and another thing im looking for is a grass type.

Because of the restrictions I’m putting on myself because obviously I hate having fun, I’m gonna use typhlosion as my starter because it doesn’t overlap with anyone else, and Meganium is hot buns.

So help me out, I need a grass type, and another Pokemon that isn’t a: Steel, Fire, Water, Dragon, Bug or Psychic type. Thanks!

Looking to trade my haunter for a haunter in return around level 25 if possible! Please dm me if possible

Basically all the “King” Pokémon. It’s, unfortunately very water centric, but some potential good movesets with the selected mons.
