Most of it stemmed from having a real reason to keep playing. If I hadn't had competition back then, I don't think I would have had nearly as many hours sunk into it.

100 hours isn't that bad. I have 142 hours and I don't even battle online or with friends that often. I also haven't even beat Red /facepalm.

I found all my old GB pokemon cartridges. Blue, Red, Yellow, Silver, Gold and Crystal all still work and have their saves intact. My level 73 Blastoise from Blue still exists!

I didn't beat Red until I was 200 hours in.



I've ended up selling my old GB/C carts awhile back. It's fine, though. Emulators do that shit for me and I don't have to worry about

red and blue will last a LOT longer then gold/silver due to the fact that gold and silver drain at all time due to internal clock. Same goes for crystal, but that one have a better battery.

All games constantly drain it, even if only a little. It's how storing data works. The problem is that G/S use ones that don't recharge properly or something and they drain it much faster than they should. Crystal fixes that, so it's probably the safest place to store the pokemon in.

I found my Red cart, but after messing around trying to glitch the saving the data got corrupt... Now the games have two files for that so yeah.

Also I don't know if I should do anything before going to the Elite 4... going to Whirl Islands without the Silver Wing is useless. I also can't connect to the GTS as my router doesn't support DS and I have no computer to connect the USB thing.

I'll just train things to level 4X I guess...

Nah, my Crystal cart's battery died a few years ago as well at the same time my silver cart did pretty much. But then, I don't think I'd plugged in either cart in a good five years or so.

I know most of my Pokemon carts ended up with 100+ hours on them, however.

I actually had a Yellow cart whose battery lasted longer than Silver's. I transplanted the battery from Yellow to Silver and now it's dead too. Those clocks really seem to suck the juice.

My Crystal's battery is still working, AFAIK... but my Red battery died in like, 2006... Blue is still working, too =)

RSE only use the battery for the internal clock (no built-in clock on the GBA, remember), so if that battery dies, you can still save and play the game, but you lose stuff like the lottery and the ability to grow berries. =/

At 160+ hours with 206 caught.

I figure if I continue, I should hit all of them in about the same amount of time. Maybe then I'll finally beat Red.

I think I have 61 in 70+ hours at elite 4...
I usually have like, 15. I blame Black and White.

Also Jirachi on Wifi on Europe from the 26th. Though I want the Japanese Tanabata one...
Can that stuff even go through the GTS anyways?
