Use pokemon I never used before:
Ursaring, Jumpluff, Ampharos, Typhlosion, Umreon and I might switch Pidgeot for Noctowl. Then I have all pokemons I never used before.

Another thing I'm going to do differently: don't call my pokemon dumb names!

- Actually use nicknames that are related to the pokemon, such as names that are synonyms to their natures
- Train more than just my starter (what can I say, I was 10)
- Use more than just the pokemon at the beginning of the game
- Worry about catching all the pokemon at the beginning of the game instead of near the end when my pokemon are too strong and I can't stand using the older pokemon that are at lower levels


Yeah, that's about it.
 

JIMMAH!!!!

Pickin' a winner
-Not calling my rival Ass.
-Not cloning my level one hundred feraligatr.
-Not accidentally deleting my game, then crying about it for a month.

(That last one actually happened. I WAS NINE OKAY!?!?)

Raising more than one pokemon. Sure, it was fun ripping through the trainers with my waaay overlevelled Typhlosion, but when I got to Clair, and her double fire-resist Kingdra, alot of rage was had by me. Also, I'm not using my master ball on Ho-oh.
That's about it really.

I am actually going to take the time to appreciate the games instead of rush them(not that I did that in the originals). I am going to enjoy each and every aspect of the remakes from start to finish. I will also use the same team that I used in my gold version (see signature), and I am going to capture dratini in the dragon's den instead of buying dratini from golden rod city.

The only thing I can think of right now to do differently is......
NEVER LET MY LITTLE SISTER USE MY DARN GAMEBOY EVER AGAIN!!!
Had to restart that darn Silver version three times........
Oh and I WON'T bring over my level 100's from my red blue and yellow versions. it makes the games WAY too easy.

You couldn't bring Pokemon over from RGBY even if you wanted to.

I will

not kill red gyarados

not train only one pokemon (my typholsion was so strong I slaughtered Misty's water pokemon with fire attacks....... but alot of good that did when I tried to fight Red's blastoise -_-' all my other pokemon were level 40 or UNDER)

not give my pokemon nicknames that sound like I was just scraping for anything

make a balanced team

not use a master ball on an AIPOM (dumbest thing I ever did)

actually try to catch Lugia and Ho-oh

not give my rival a nickname made up of letters I randomly clicked on (his name was.....Cralfan or something, wutduhhek?)

probably try to transfer over Chikorita from whatever game isn't my main (likely HG, Silver was my main game back when it first came out so SS is what I want to play). I always start with Cyndiquil

i'll probably have a different starter and use different pokemon than the usual. mix it up a bit.

im gonna choose cyndaquil instead of totadile.
 
I'm probably going to do everything different from Crystal except for the fact that I'm most likely picking Chikorita.

- Better, more balanced team.
- Training my Pokemon equally.
- Use Pokemon I've never used before.
- NOT use legendaries on my team unless there aren't any better Pokemon of that type.
- Don't use the Masterball on a stationary Pokemon.
- Work on my Pokedex.
- Don't catch every letter Unown unless I get something good out of it.

Ish stunned...
- Choosing Chikorita instead of Cyndaquil
- Not letting my sister borrow the game and "accidentaly" deleting it again.
- Raise all my Pokemon to level 100 without hacking.
- Completing the Kanto and Johto Pokedex. (I didn't finish 'em 'cause I was too bored to do it)
- Don't waste Masterball on Lugia or Ho-Oh.
- Instead of calling my rival "*******" I'll call him "Silver"

I'll go NFE.

*sneezes*
I won't run a magnet over the game cart, that's for sure. :p
Um... Right now I don't think I'll do anything differently when playing the game, but I might do something different when I actually play the game. All the new stuff has me interested.. I hope Kanto isn't as suckish as it was in the GBC version.
