getting blue/gary's number made me angry. it was too tedious to just get a number.
Try having the patience to do so after tweaking the clock, and pretty much screwing yourself over until it properly reset itself. Time consuming and quite pointless. Finally got it though.
Now, I'm pretty sure it's been stated a few times that when you double battle against Lance/Claire, your rival has a tendency to do nothing useful and is pretty much cannon fodder. Okay, expecting that, I figured I'd try my best to take out Lance asap... which didn't happen.
Both Claire and Lance pretty much focused their attacks on me, and Silver took out Claire,
and Lance's Charizard. While paralyzed, and in the yellow. At level 60. With Feraligatr. Me? Claire took out Latios in 2 hits, Froze Lugia, while she was defrosted
on the turn she got frozen by my Silver.
I know the computer is supposed to be cheap... but that was wrong on so many levels. It seems the only thing capable of taking on a cheap computer... is another cheap computer. I'm at least glad Lance wasn't cheap enough to spam Dragon Rush. That would have been annoying.
The waiting times for the Safari Zone.
SERIOUSLY? You SERIOUSLY just made me wait forever to get Riolu and others?
Also, why are the legendaries so hard to catch? I could catch Dialga using about 5
regular Pokeballs and now some level 50s FAINT before I can catch them with an
ULTRA BALL!! What?!
This to infinite. Attempt to catch the roamers? Not so bad. Paralyzed plus enough quick balls, + their PP is refresh each time.
EVENT ENIGMA STONE LATIAS. OMFG. I probably should have False Swiped her, but oh well. I eventually got fed up and used the Master Ball on her.
Hoping to Arceus that Mewtwo doesn't frustrate me this much. Hell, Articuno and Zapdo were nowhere near this annoying. I actually got lucky with Articuno. Moltres was always a pain in Fire Red, so I'm not going to be too annoyed with that.
Seriously GF, event capture rates... WTF? Are you purposely forcing me to use Master Ball?
Upon retrospect, I think I may consider picking up some Timer Balls...
