No. I could never do it. I want to, but it's just so hard. Maybe in Red if I was lucky, but it's just hard. Especially with one choice of starter, one choice of ancient, and one choice of fighting.
in my black version, i've seen all available 646, and 9 away from catching them all too.
after that i'm trying for a living pokedex. (have 1 copy of EVERY pokemon)
I did this in Red (or maybe Yellow) by using Stadium and resetting every time the family went on vacation. More recently, I got a perfect Dex on HeartGold by transferring over everything from my Platinum (where I was trying to catch all without having to trade online). I still had to borrow the Regi-s and an Arceus though, so it wasn't an active perfect Dex. I haven't bothered in my copy of White because I have spent so much time just breeding for perfect stats and whatnot.
i just finished the dex 2 days ago. umad?
but now im trying to get a copy of every pokemon so i can just migrate the entire dex to the next gen when it comes along.
[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]I never have but I was SO close in Red and Gold. In Red, I just needed Mew but I got that game when Gold and Silver were already released so I didn't hear of any Mew giveaways. In Gold I needed Celebi and the Pokemon exclusive to Silver. [/font]
[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Despite the huge popularity of Pokemon at the time, I was surprised I didn't have friends who played the games.[/font]
