| artur-fernand said: It's funny how after playing SoulSilver, I now like Gen 2 a liiiiitle bit less. Go back to Kanto was really mind-blowing and all, but what bothered me was the distribution of the Pokemon. See, I like to use just Pokemons of the region I'm in, so only Johto Pokemons here, but... there are so few of them early on. I can find Hoothoot. Okay. Sentret. Okay. Mareep. Okay. But then there are the Rattatas, Pidgeys Zubats, Bellsprouts (A TOWER OF THEIR OWN, DAHELL?), Geodude, Onix, dammit. It took me a while to build my team in SoulSilver. Is this an actual issue, or was I just unlucky or something? I'm curious now. |
Compared to the embarassment of riches we've gotten with the newer games, yeah, the Pokemon distribution in Gold/Silver is pretty weak. And looking back, the Kanto reveal was strangely light on content. Other than some really easy gym leader battles, what else is there? I'd agree that the game hasn't aged very well, but for its time the game really shaped me as a gamer. ^_^
