remember the mirage island shit in pokemon r/s/e how fucked was that nonsense
you had to talk to an old man once per day. then the game would generate 2 random number bytes. those bytes would have to both match the also random and unseeable personality values of one of your party pokemon. assuming you had a full party of 6 that was roughly a 1/10000 chance. thats rarer than finding a shiny. and this wasn’t once per random encounter this was once per day. this was the only way to find liechi berries and get gold pokeblocks
this literally sounds like some fake forum post from 2004 but it was 100% real they really put this in the game un fucking believable
between this, feebas, and the regis im beginning to think the fucking riddler played a part in the development of r/s/e
i had something, a magikarp i think, that was really special for some reason. it was both in pokemon go and a thing that existed in the real world. someone stole him from me, and i went around asking everybody who took him and where they hid him. nobody would answer, they’d all just laugh and tell me i’d find out.
i found him somehow, and he had been evolved into a gyarados, but he looked super ornate. he was a pale color with golden accents, and had scales like kommo-o that came off his back and formed arches around his face. it was super beautiful. i called his name (apparently Bold and then Royal) and he recognized me and was so happy to see me.
i remember talking to someone in a church who commented on how whoever evolved him into this “holy” form was actually a dick and wouldn’t be accepted into gods kingdom. (holy shit what) but to be honest i was just happy i had him back and he was evolved, because i didn’t have enough candy to evolve him myself.
1. holy shit
2. that design sounds fucking sick and i wanna try drawing or spriting it or something
i'm very gay. i'd like a few dollars.
