Trainer Tips
Red’s meteoric rise to fame might have seemed much more amazing if 95% of his opponents had any common sense.

I stumbled upon you in your natural habitat.
I got my Pokemon to beat the shit out of you.
I captured you, in a near-death condition, regardless of your family and friends.
I used you to fight Pokemon you didn't even know, and some perhaps you did.
I commanded you to fight, expecting quick and accurate results.
I even watched you die.
Multiple times.

But it's a good thing you love me!

A winning team isn't made from love, it's forged by fire.

Pokemon has taught us the truth about love and kindness.

Psh. So Pokemon are only good when they're evolved?

Tell that to Joey's Rattata.

Yep, Red got his ideas right. You want to know why you don't love your pokemon?

What Red isn't realizing is that Lance does the exact opposite with his lvl 47 and 50 Dragonites

It's true. Most Pokes go ga-ga for the occasional Rare Candy.

Swearing would have made the first gen Pokemon so much better.

I'm sorry, but I never gave a radio interview. That me is obviously a spy!

You know, Red has a point. It's one thing to keep your pokemon in basic form to hold out for a move it learns earlier or solely in that form...

But some of those people are just doing it on PURPOSE!

Especially in G/S and HG/SS. There's like 2 dozen first stage pokemon across all of Johto, between all the trainers. Which sucks, because it made leveling a fuckin' chore since all the trainers gave shit experience with their basic mons.

Use a whole bunch? Don't you mean get a pokemon with the ability levitate, only use dig and never use any other pokemon? I'm pretty sure that that's what he meant......

is that why he hangs out at Mountains? so he'll never see those high leveled first evolutions?

Okay I'm sick of wondering so I'm just going to ask regardless of the fact that I'll almost certainly get -1'd for it.

can somebody tell me a good website to post pictures on so I can put custom pictures in my comments? what the hell do you guys use?

What?!
You can't win with first level Pokemon you're attached to?
Seems like I need to teach this guy the power of friendship!
To Mt.Silver!

*And Immortal_Mook was never heard from again.*

Its funny because its true...

The evil teams of the regions are the worst. I'm going through Gold fighting rockets with freaking level 20+ Rattatas and Zubats.

Meanwhile, Lance is at Indigo Plato with three under-level Dragonites! IMPOSSIBRU!

yet he has the same pikachu since the 90s

What really surprises me is that there are crazy dudes with level 20+ magikarps some a whole team full of them. And then there are others who managed to get pidgeots at level twenty-something before they evolve Then there's lance with his impossible dragonite but I forgive him because it's A MUTHA-%&*#ing DRAGONITE!!
