So... I want to return to Pokemon games

I liked Parasect a lot in Blue, getting access to so many debilitating effects so quickly was nice. I ended up replacing him, though, I think he was too slow for me. Pretty sure Arcanine took his place.
 
I just got Rock smash, who should get it? >__<
I would suggest getting a rock smash slave, a Pokemon you usually keep in a box, and bring out specifically for areas you need to smash rocks. Unless something's changed in the newest generation, that move is so weak it's not worth using in combat.
 
So I was using my HM's without thinking on Emerald and now I think I might go back to Sapphire. Loaded up my Chikorita with Strength, Cut and Rock Smash without even thinking about it. Now he's pretty much ruined.

Not really. Just go to the Move Deleter's house later on and delete the moves you don't want. Then, ether replace them with TM moves or get some Heart Scales and go to the Move Tutor and relearn ones Chikorita would have learned.

Ahh, hadn't thought about that guy.
 
Hrmmm, After reading this I kinda want to play pokemans again. So is fire red basically red version with colour? or does it have 2nd gen mons as well? I am kind of on info overload here.

Actually in generation IV, Rock smash got a upgrade and its base power is 40, it used to be 20, as a base, note that Tackle has a base power of 35. It still has a 50% chance of reducing the target defense

I am using Bulbapedia as a guide, but it only gives "raw" information rather than direct tips. Thus why I am asking here.

I am considering give it to either Onyx or Geodude, the later has a higher level, but I wouldn't mind level up Onyx or keep it as "slave".
 
Wow that sounds hard.

Is there such a guy in Red? FireRed. Whatever?
They've been standard in every game since the Generation 2 games made them a necessity, as you couldn't trade via the Time Machine if your mon had a move it couldn't learn in Gen 1. I simply have no idea where they are at, as i haven't played FireRed/LeafGreen.
 
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

I thought the thunderbadge would give me control over pokemons above level 30! It didn't!! And ALL my party is in the 27-29 range!!! I can't level them up or they'll all stop listneing to them, won't they?!

now I have to use the FLASH HM to navigate the rock cavern and NOT level up above 30 until... when? Did I just screw my game over?

Okay, now I got cut from the farfetch quest, with who I should use it? It is another "slave" move?

Seriously, I don't want to waste neither of the "cut" and "rock smash" move >__<
 
I think Meowth learns both Cut and Rocksmash. Find one (in the grass just under Cerulean), catch it, and make it your temporary hm slave

No comment on my possibly screwing up the entire party?
Well, what you want we to say? "Nice Job" or "Well, next time research better" or "Well, I guess you are going to need to get a new party"?

Please select and press A.

I am playing HeartGold, I think my only acess to cerulean will be after I beat the Elite Four.

I think you guys are overthinking the fun out of this game. Calleboy, they won't immediately stop listening to you. But, if you really felt like it, just OP one of them instead of all of them. And start boosting up another pokemon.

Its that simple.

My bad! In that case I'm not sure which pokemon you can appoint as a slave, but Sentret may do the trick.

What's OP?

And how far away am I from the badge that lets me control 30+?

I was thinking in using a Rattata, I have a sentret but is low leve (like 3) and I am not sure I want to drag him around.

I confess one of the reasons for not teaching the move yet is because both pokemon are... well, lame. Really, one is like mickey-mouse the other looks likes a squirrel that ate too much nuts. =p

Ice Fang is good enough to wait before evolving Totodile?

Calleja meet Bulbapedia Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia

I hope you two get allong well together.
 
The badge that will let you control up to 50 is the Celadon City one. No your not screwed, as you can just catch another Pokemon if you DO start losing control.

Seriously guys... your playing single Player. You can't screw up your games in that. Chill the fuck out.
 
I'm chilled more than the fuck out, I'm just posting asking stuff, sheesh.
Your starter will always obey you, no matter what level it is. As for other pokemon, I've never had ones I caught myself disobey me. The only mons that are in real danger of not obeying if overleveled are ones you acquire in a trade.

Are all of your Pokemon traded? Only traded Pokemon will stop obeying you if they level up too much.

Overpowered. Sorry, mincing gaming terms here.

This.

And also: Calleja, just play the damn game and stop worrying so damn much.
 
Really?!?! They made such a fuzz about "OOOH this badge will let you control pokemons up to level 30!!" that I figured it..y'know.. meant something. Of course my pokemon aren't traded, I'm on an emulator! The "trading" system doesn't even work.

Oh man, this is great news, back to the gaaaaameee!!


(And no, I can't just "stop worrying", I overthink. It's what I do. I haven't been able to change that for 25 years)
 
Oh yeah, I know why I was so worried. Waaaaaaay back in the day I remember the Pokemon anime had Charizard NOT listening to Ash, and ignoring him. I barely even remember watching the anime, but that one stuck to me.

He got that as a Charmander from another trainer.

That Mankey was a piece of shit too.

And overall Ash was one of the worst trainers ever. Friendship my ass.

It cheated. His other pokemon were lame.

I know this because Bananahands and his girlfriend decided to Netflix that stupid, god awful anime.
