Hello.
I would even buy one on Ebay when I had no other option. I had played through every single pokémon game by the time X and Y were slated to be released - or so I had thought. This is my narrative on a game that I came across recently that - you guessed it; I wish I never had come across in the first place. Before you get the wrong idea, this game
My account starts just a month ago. I was reminiscing about old video games with my college roommate while walking around campus. We did that sometimes when we had nothing better to do. Anyways, I told him that I had played every single pokémon game there was right from the get-go; from Red and Blue, all the way to Black and White, and I would soon play X and Y.
"Even Crystal?", he asked.
Line 19:
After a few moments of thinking, he asked about one more. "What about Pokémon Yellow?"
Just then, my heart sunk. I never played Yellow. My obsession
After sulking for the rest of the day, I went to bed. I had a weird dream about Pokemon Snap. I was in the game, taking pictures. Everything seemed normal, but when I passed the water, a Lapras popped out. He was holding a copy of Pokémon Yellow in his mouth. I reached for it, but he swam away.
I spent the next day hunting down my own copy of the game. I texted friends, but none of them had one. I went to Gamestop, but they had stopped selling original gameboy games. Unable to find a prompt form of retrieving the game, I tried my luck on eBay. I found three different copies in my price range, but I was outbid every time. I only had $11 in my Paypal account.
Line 29:
I started researching the game online. After an hour of doing so, I found a link in my search results. Unlike the rest of the hits, this one was just a link. It said "Pokémon Golden Yellow" and nothing else. Disregarding the fact that the odd looking link could potentially harm my laptop, I clicked on it. What can I say? I was curious. The link brought me to a website, void of any information. There were just two links. One was titled "GBemulator.exe" and the other was titled "PokémonYellow.gb". I wanted to avoid having to play Yellow with an emulator at all costs, but I was running out of options. I downloaded the files.
After installing the emulator and moving around the necessary files, I started playing the game. Everything was normal. Oak explained the world of pokémon. I named my character and then I was on my way. Like Red and Blue, I was left in my bedroom atop my home. I went downstairs and found everything there to be ordinary as well, aside from the fact that my mom was unmovable. She just sat there at the table and I was unable to speak to her. I blamed that on lazy programming. Maybe the person who transposed Yellow from cartridge to file found the mother to be an unimportant element of the game and
I made my way outside, and to my surprise, Pallet Town was completely empty, other than my house. At first I wondered if this was a part of the game, considering I had never played Yellow before. I quickly discarded the theory, realizing that such a thing would be nonsensical. I
After walking around aimlessly for five minutes, I decided to see if I had any pokemon. I expected a Pikachu, even though he
Breeding pokemon to lay eggs
I decided to hatch the egg. I walked around in endless circles for what felt like forever. Finally, it hatched. During the hatching animation, I
After walking around with him just for the sake of it for a minute or so, I looked at his stats. He was at level 5, and had normal stats. I looked at his sprite, and saw that he was discolored. He
Goldenrod City was a ghost town. Each and every door on every building was
After I left Goldenrod, I realized I was walking along Route 34, just as I would be in Gold or Silver (I had the maps from every pokemon game memorized, plus the daycare center was a dead giveaway). I noticed the daycare center, but kept walking to see how far I could get. I was curious to see how the creator of the game connected Pallet Town to Goldenrod City. I
With no other viable options, I tried the daycare center. Luckily it was a serviceable building, unlike the rest. I was able to walk in. Upon entering, I noticed nothing unusual. I went over to the daycare man and hit the A button.
Line 49:
"Ah, your golden egg has finally hatched! This is a most momentous milestone in your Pokemon journey! Not many trainers can claim to have a golden Pikachu. Take care now."
I walked out to the enclosure where the pokemon would normally breed, and there was a generic pokemon sprite (I always thought that these sprites looked like eevee) all by its lonesome. Maybe this was the
"Hello. I can see that you are a pokemon trainer. Do you enjoy training your Pokemon?" I was given an option; YES or NO. In fact, I was bombarded with such questions. For this one, I chose YES.
Line 59:
"Would you stop at nothing to become the best Pokemon trainer you could be?" I chose YES.
"Even if it meant putting your Pikachu in
"Your Pokemon is of a special breed. You should know how lucky you are." I was given the option again, YES or NO. What? That was a statement. I chose NO.
