Did you catch em all?


Remember back in the day when there were only 151 critters to capture in your balls? (pun intended) Pokemon Red & Blue were the games that started a phenomenon and the series headed off with the slogan "Gotta catch 'em all".

Now if I remember correctly, on my Pokemon Blue version (blue ftw!) I had caught every single Pokemon except the Red version exclusives and I remember desperately trying to find someone with it so I could trade with them. Sadly I never did find anybody because not many people in my area cared for Pokemon that much. :(

Okay, so my question to you is (ignoring all of the new Pokemon) did you catch em all?

  7. I was never able to catch them all. With each new pokemon game I play I start with the intention that I want to catch every pokemon that I can of that generation, but I always end up failing and losing interest before I can.

  8. I had blue too! I never caught all of them though, just like you, only the Blue exclusives, big thanks to the Missingno glitch ;)

  11. I'm going to try with Black and White, but Red and Blue? Never had the attention span, and I'd be crazy to try it with all 493 Pokemon in 4th gen.

  14. Like beyondhiphop, I also caught them all in all 3 of the original versions, also cathching them all in silver and almost all in gold version. I loved pokemon years ago, and understand it's need to "evolve" (my pun intended) to still cater to the masses, but it has just gotten to much for me. I sadly ceased my diligent following a little before emerald version released. Black and White looks like it would be cool, but when the DS came out, I just lost interest. The DS just seemed to corny for me personally. Still, Pokemon beats the he11 out of Yu-Gi-Oh!
