Darn, I missed posting the 400th post!! Anyways, I have an announcement, I'm going to be keeping this thread up until the end of March, so everyone can discuss their playthroughs. On April Fools Day, and this is no joke, I'm going to ask someone to close this thread for me. It's been a good wait, now let's return to Kanto.

So yeah had red for hours now and I can confirm they altered the dude who teaches you how to catch pokemon, (they removed that part completely) which if I remember correctly was instrumental in the mew glitch. I also dunno how to get my mons on to bank, already tried using bank and the program doesn't seem to recognise the VC games so I dunno.

12 hours ago this news would distress me but now that we're getting Bank compatibility it makes sense. Thanks for the heads up!

That's a surprise, I thought these games would be 100% unaltered. At least the glitches are apparently taken care of, if this one truly is.

I'd like to point out I was wrong, that was how you did the missingno glitch not mew glitch. The mew glitch was the trainer-fly glitch....but I bet that's fixed too tbh.

I'm waiting for the youtube videos from poketubers testing out all the glitches. Hopefully they find nothing. I personally was going to get all the mews, but now these games can connect to bank, yeah. I hope these things are disabled.

Oh for real? He certainly did not teach me. You're not on yellow version are you?

Just downloaded Blue, Red and Yellow here in the UK! (Shame you cannot trade between the games with one 3DS... or can you?) Feeling a little bit emotional and nostalgic! Blue was my first in 1999, so I will be playing that first.

So lucky. My first was red christmas of 1998. Can't wait ^^

Nope. English Blue. He asked if I was busy, then caught a Weedle.

Well i dunno then he deff did not ask me. Perhaps because i didn't talk to him first before getting balls/the package? I don't remember if that makes a difference or not. In which case I'm worried again for mass cheated mews in the bank.

Currently downloading Blue. ;)

And now I've got all three downloaded! I'm starting with Blue right now.

So it doesn't look like the US releases got a Mew serial code. A little sad, but I did get a Gamestop one this month, so it's alright
 
I had honestly forgotten just how prevalent crits were in first gen. Fast nidoran and a fast mankey in my team are getting a good 2+ crits each battle (if the first doesn't kill the opponent). I decided to get yellow, but blue was technically my first ever pokemon game. Still so amazingly nostalgic!

Being able to play Pokemon Blue for the first time since my physical copy glitched up all the way back in '99 is a sending me on one hell of a nostalgia trip.

So, the trading thing. Can you only trade over Wi-Fi with friends or something?

I know right? I feel the same way with Yellow since mine glitched around then too.
