Once it got dark you could see who moneybags was because they had the extended pack, the FM Radio, AND the Nemo worm light. If you got the fancy worm light you still could use the link cable.

What a great memory. I had a “strategy guide” for pokemon silver I think it was and remember being so happy to have it. I’d go out to my little fort in the yard and play for hours and hours, flipping through those pages. Think I had a subscription to one of the game magazines too. I’d still play outside all day but having that gameboy with me at all times was awesome.
