Brendantheclayboy's Collection - Kinebuchi's Final Boss, a Grail Indeed - 10/31/24

Here we have what started it all for me. My first and biggest love in Pokemon. Something I still use heavily to this day, for competitive fun with a friend. Something that brought me to the TCG and Pokemon collecting in general. Something that I owe a great deal of childhood memory and reverence to in shaping who I am as a person in my formative years. I love these games. I’ve had the original Gen 1 games since childhood. I have had to replace the batteries on all these pups a couple times now.…

KromaticLanturn's Collection - The Girafarig (Kirinriki) Post

Hey yalls! Wow, it’s been a bit since I’ve made any updates. There hasn’t been anything spectacular in the pickup realm for me over these past few months, but I figured I would share some things that caught my eye. [image] [image] Firstly, I HAVE to give a big shoutout to @brendantheclayboy on the recommendation of picking up Crystal Clear version for GBC!! This game has been absolutely awesome, and definitely more of a challenge than the original and beloved Crystal version. There are amaz…

oh rad!!! your collection is sweet but i especially love your CC custom cart!! i’m glad to see someone else enjoying it in that way, it’s fun on an emulator but nothing beats having the actual physical object and playing it the way it was meant to be played. i would love to see your sprite and/or teams!!

[brendantheclayboy]

Nothing beats hardware indeed! Got another link for you, showing teams that I’ve trained on crystal clear and shinies caught there. My friend and I play “competitively” with each other via cable link and we have some 100+ lvl 100’s we do round robins on from time to time, betting a little cash to up the stakes and keep the dishes spicy. We take pride in our lineups as some are exclusive and claimed first as we added new amounts (usually 6 at a time) to the roster. Take just as much pride in the nicknames!

Wish I had made a proper custom sprite but I’m sure the current file in the cart has some nice color selection and basic customization.

The magical nostalgia of Gen 2

Thanks for the tag, and thrilled you love it, @kromaticlanturn ! It is so cool that this romhack I came to find and enjoy could be spread on E4. Incredible stuff, very fulfilling to have that sort of post game feel to a masterpiece of a game that is Crystal. Johto, Johto. Ahh. The relaxed, somber, and almost poignant atmosphere they created. Kanto being the bustling city to the Johto being the lush countryside. The perfect balance to each other, the ultimate sequel, like godfather part one to tw…

oh!! i just needed to keep scrolling lol. the nicknames are so choice i spot a ruby sp!! how can you stand playing with the gbc cart poking into your wrists lol

i’m soooo jealous that you have a friend who will link with you!! i made the sprite for my friend and put it on a custom cart and gifted it to him and everything… but he’s kind of a flake (i love him though) and we only got to battle a few times before he moved on to other stuff (i think unbound? he’s a gen 3/4 fanboy). it was fun while it lasted

@crindy

how can you stand playing with the gbc cart poking into your wrists lol

It’s all about the technique

sorry to hear, it’s a privilege to have that now, never had it as a kid and that’s why we got so excited about doing it and making sure to get a new tournament in if it’s been too long. We’re actually overdue for one as we speak but he’s recently engaged so he has a good excuse to be a bit busy for video games le sigh
