probably this. Recently there was a yt video about the pokemon 2000 browser game made in america to promote the second movie. GF literally took the game down via copyright strike because they were mad at how successful a browser game in the year 2000 was.
The ultra versions are better for gameplay but they're still 90% the same as USUM which is why they get hated on. It's not like platinum or emerald where much is actually changed, but there's still little reason to play base SM over USUM
USUM does totally butcher the semi decent plot that SM had but it's a Pokemon game so there's no way you're playing it for the plot to start.

The question. It was a win/win to me since I was going to have a Cube anyway, but it is the question. I'm glad they happened.
No. Brought Kris back after 18 years but as a female player character she was only a matter of time.

I don't think we would have gotten any more RPGs from Genius anyway. The Wii did too well to need one and the Wii U was dead on arrival. The Gamecube was the one moment in time where the financial math worked out.
There was also the situation the Orre games were released in.
Gen 3 didn't allow transfers from Gen 2 because Pokemon data changed wildly between Gen 2 and 3, so the Orre games were made to get the Pokemon that would've been harder to get in Hoenn.
By the Wii, you could transfer stuff from Gen 3 into 4, so it wasn't needed.
Because neither GameFreak nor The Pokemon Company created the Orre games. They're the literal black sheep of the franchise, coming from a weird period where another developer was allowed to create their own Pokemon game that featured a campaign and the same battling mechanics as the core games, and twice for that matter.
Remember, the Genius Sonority that made Colosseum and Gale of Darkness was absorbed into GameFreak sometime before Gen 5's Pokemon designs were in the works, and basically everyone except James Turner was put into grunt roles with no ability to influence the games significantly in order to make it so that even if anyone lived long enough to potentially take the mantle of Director or Producer, they'd be just as old, jaded and out of touch as Masuda or Ohmori, ensuring that quality they were capable of squeezing out for the Orre games was no longer present.
This month, Pokémon turns 10 years dead.
Are there any alternative video game franchises to replace pokemon in my life?
>video game without fairies >anti-pokemon game >anti-nintendo game >I hate RPGs >non-competitive game >video game without metagame > totally single player game >game without multiplayer
He's not wrong. The only thing Colosseum does better is the MC's design. I'm playing it again right now and having to host the entire roster of gen 2 means nearly all of your team options are gutter trash who only serve to siphon exp away from espeon.
Because le edgy evil shadow Pokemon with evil auras was too cringe even for GF. They will willing to cash in on nostalgiagays with the mechanic in GO but thats as far as they go
This edgelord felt like he was just a random trainer you'd meet in the world and not just another chosen one child. Or that's what I remember. I was like 7 when I played this. Honestly being able to hook up the GBA to get 3D battles was what made everyone like it.
I have both Gamecube games and they are still a lot of fun, more using GBA mons for Orre Colosseum challenges, sadly Jirachi's bonus disc is ridiculously expensive.
Just hack Jirachi. There is no reason not to when the official way of getting him is essentially a cheat code. I guess you can get him legit if you suffer through the entire pal version of the Pokemon Channel.
>I guess you can get him legit if you suffer through the entire pal version of the Pokemon Channel.
Not that much suffering honestly, i did it several times back in Gen4 back when i was sick to get more Jirachis for online trading. Channel is a chill low effort game to go though once you know how to progress, not like it gives a frick if you mess with the GCN clock to skip to the next day. I'd say it was only like slightly more effort then getting a additional Kubfu and/or Ogerpon is these days aside from the nightmare that is transferring up all those gens, just not worth it.

Was there ever a way to get Celebi outside of Japan?
Googling it? First English Celebi should be the 10th Anniversionary one (AKA "Journey Across America"), US Only February 25 to July 23, 2006, which was roughly the end of Gen 3 (JP release if DP in September same year). Next shot after that should be the 2011 one for both Yro and Burgers.
I just wish they did another game focusing on double battles. I find it crazy that doubles is the official format for VGC yet you can't even play it at all in the newer games outside of whatever battle facility is in the game.
Plus it makes battles in general a lot more interesting. I still remember fighting Dakim for the first time and kind of struggling since he was doing the most basic kind of doubles combos like EQ + Flying type/Protect.
My hopes for the next generation is to have a game where you travel with a party of 3 and you're able to build teams of 6 Pokémon for each of them. They've made it so easy to train up 20 level 100s if you ever want to and training is so simple but being able to play battles where you decide to go doubles or singles with trainers in the game and decide on who's going to battle. You could even have the game start up with the professor asking your name and your rivals' names. Even splitting them up at some point would make for cool storytelling where you're in three separate locations and meet in the middle of something. I just loved how Area Zero played out with all of the guys together and talking. Two legendary Pokémon becoming one would be great too, where they become a different Pokémon depending on the game.
>not even pokemon masters has rescued them
It was a good game. I don't know why they hate it so.

Sure if you only like mario and sonic.
It's a Pokemon video. What are you trying to say?

While on topic. I have yet to play gen 7. Are the Ultra versions really that bad? Should I play the original Sun and Moon instead?
The ultra versions are better for gameplay but they're still 90% the same as USUM which is why they get hated on. It's not like platinum or emerald where much is actually changed, but there's still little reason to play base SM over USUM
USUM does totally butcher the semi decent plot that SM had but it's a Pokemon game so there's no way you're playing it for the plot to start.
Are you honestly telling me that Gamefreak is that petty?
One more reason to hate them
Still asshurt about getting shown up.
Shown up how? It's just a game based on America.
why pay royalties to genius sonority when you dont have to?
Did pokemon master rescued anything? Like, anything that wasn't part of the mainline games, other than Ash

My gems would disappear faster than a house hit by an EF5 tornado if Rui was added to Masters. And Miror B..
>And Miror B..
Would legit open my wallet for this glorious bastard.
Especially if they bring his battle music back and his Ludicolo is moving to the music like in the games.
Frick wedgy and bootleg misty, the real deal is Mr B champion of Orre

I think gamefreak doesn't want to canonize Orre exactly because of shadow pokemon
I don't think that is is because Go brought them back just fine.
that castform has the down syndrome

Minesweeper
Not forgotten, I still love Colosseum
troony corpsefricker pedos are not people
Orre has become old and “overrated”…
Time to ride into the sunset…
My friend thinks XD is a better game overall.
He's not wrong. The only thing Colosseum does better is the MC's design. I'm playing it again right now and having to host the entire roster of gen 2 means nearly all of your team options are gutter trash who only serve to siphon exp away from espeon.
Having the chance to use pokemon you never normally considered is good though.
XD has a bunch of shitmons too if you want to use them that bad.
Because le edgy evil shadow Pokemon with evil auras was too cringe even for GF. They will willing to cash in on nostalgiagays with the mechanic in GO but thats as far as they go
I played it a month ago
Gotta admit i had a lot of fun getting through

Not until gen IV or V.
