I finally got around to updating the site it just took 3 months and now I'm doing it on a sunday night before I work again! I love my brain!! Anyways I've been playing Pokemon Yellow lately and its been pretty fun, working on a living dex for Crystal recently and needed the Gen 1 starters, fossils and legendaries. I wanted to have some fun with this playthrough so I used Stadium 2 to bring in a Fresh Water from another save and just kinda skipped Rocket Hideout lmao.
I also did the Trainer Fly glitch to get Mew since it's the only way to get one and I don't care about legality checks at all for this since it's not like I'm taking them out of Gen1/2 anyways.
Here is the Final Team for this playthrough
jimmothy the Gyarados
jimmothy was the realest one with tradebacks from gen 2 giving access to moves like headbutt and waterfall it was a menace after evolving and honestly swept the game post Erika for me.
BattlerUmi the Bulbasaur
the Cut user himself, yeah I really only grabbed him for dex completion and he became the cut user, he's only named Battler because I was watching Big Yellow talk about the Umineko fighting game and for like 12 seconds I saw him there probably thinking about small bombs or something.
Teto the Pikachu
Teto the og, honestly just kinda there as well, early on Teto was just getting quick attack kills off of Munke the Mankey and thats about it they also helped with switch training jimmothy.
xxBigBurdx the Zapdos
BigBurd did the most out of the 3 birds and that was almost entirely because I used her to catch the other two she swept up whatever jimmothy couldn't but thats about it, I plan to come back to Yellow at some point and shiny hunt all 3 of the Kanto birds from here, also I master balled her.
Gorogoro the Moltres
Unfortunately the least interesting of the party, never used and wasn't a super notable capture took like 2-3 attempts to knock them down to red and catch them. Named Gorogoro after the Gorons from Zelda
Missed! the Articuno
Missed! I think speaks for itself if you understand Gen 1 capture mechanics, if not brief explanation 0 shakes does not exist in Gen 1 if the game rolls to catch and you get what would be 0 shakes you just flat out miss the pokemon and get hit with a "You missed the pokemon!". Took many attempts but after a while got him down in the red and paralyzed and got him with an ultra ball.
As a fun little side note to all this I found out that the Expansion Pak is used for something in Stadium 2 other than Higher-Res Textures it's also used for the GB Tower as well! I demonstrate it in this video first without the expansion pak insterted then with it inserted, you can see that the game has to load constantly when it has to basically do anything, do note both times the inital boot for the game is about 1 minute and 10 seconds.
Also I made a Spreadsheet to track my Crystal Living Dex progress you can find it here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HEfRIT5HF8DmcryHoQjHOeKhP2aALaTdOZOrsvLxACI/edit?usp=sharing
I have every pokemons bulbapedia page linked and the route or area you can find them is highlighted with the games color that I figure was easiest to find them in, I specifically went and looked at every evolution to see if it was obtainable in the wild and decided if its possible to catch it in the wild I have to so if its listed as EVO you have to evolve for it.
Most base forms of pokemon are just listed on the same route as the evolved forms I figure if it was easier to organize that way since I'll be catching whatever comes up during my playthrough then sweep back after I have the HMs and Key Items nessecary for optimal travel.
Feel free to make a copy of this and use it yourself by the way it's why I linked it in the first place!!
