Same. I mean, there were other kids in my class that had the game, but we didn't bring our Game Boys to school because the teachers would take them. I don't know if any of us even had a link cable, either.

I have used it on some of my playthroughs. I used Slowbro as my Psychic type in my last playthrough (Amnesia FTW).

I'm about to do a playthrough of Yellow (in Stadium 2). I'm gonna do a bunch of glitches and other tricks to completely break the gym / town order. I'll get to Celadon/Saffron by transferring a Fresh Water from Stadium, then use glitch city / walk through walls to get to Cinnabar.

Lol, exact same for me. I had an after school daycare where you think they would be more chill about that thing, but nah, they sniped anyone with a game boy.

My teachers didn't really care, unless you took them out during class or something. All the Pokemon addicts would hang about and trade with each other during the break/lunch.

I was never an Alakazam fan. I'm still not, but I did try one out in the 3DS ports of RBY. It's absurd how much it tears through everything.

I went with Gengar


*hi fives*

My original 6:

Flareon
Jolteon
Dragonite
Gengar
Blastoise
Scyther

Gengar got freaky with hyponsis and dream eater, and another psychic skill. Scyther was OP as balls. Sand attack, double team, sword dance, and some physical attack.

~

Note that this was a pre-internet team so I didn't know how crappy it was. I could beat the game and the handful of friends that also played, so it was good enough.

Here's a reason:
You can't get a Mewtwo until after you beat the Elite Four. You can get an Abra very early in the game.

I think I used Hypno on my very first playthrough. Aside from Mew and Mewtwo, I think Exeggutor is the only Psychic type I haven't had as a permanent fixture in my team (before the post-game) at some point. I've used Gengar more or less as a Psychic type a few times. And Kadabra/Alakazam have had a lot of use too.

I can't speak for everyone, but my parents weren't rich or frivolous and it was tough finding a well-paying job as a ten year old, so I had to make do with what I had.

No, I usually used Starmie in the gen 1 games. I used Kadabra in Silver back in the day, and used Alakazam himself in Emerald and Y. But never in the original R/B/Y.

Exeggutor is great. Definitely recommend at least once.

That 125 Special is pretty damn good (considering it governs Atk and Def in gen 1). With 95 HP and 85 Def, it's pretty bulky all-round.

What's a good moveset for it? I'm thinking something like:

Psychic
Solar Beam
Reflect / Substitute
Growth

There's also Rest, but this is just for the regular game, where you have healing items.

Nah

Way too much of a pain to get him.

First you gotta catch an Abra, which is basically impossible. Then you have to find someone to trade with, which is also basically impossible.

Butterfree + Sleep Powder = Easy Abra

I had friends at church who had a link cable.

For me it was easy.

My original team was

Charizard
???
Kadabra
Marowak
Articuno
Zapdos

I think... I always picked Charmander (once had a rare yellow one but I traded the game and wasn't aware of it's rareness) and I had a Kadabra for sure.

Yeah, Rest is a bit pointless if you've got Hyper Potions and such. I'd say Reflect is good enough, but Substitute is fun to play around with, too. The other three moves work well.
