@fredley. I can't see multiple of the same pokemon in my catches.

Unionhawk

I think this is bydesign

fredley

@Unionhawk Yeah, my squirtle evolved, but still appears in the list

Arperum

14:13

@Unionhawk Yes. I just noticed the "you sell pokemon for money"

Unionhawk

@Arperum What do you think people just throw money out of their pockets when they lose battles?

@Unionhawk I can't find it either... weird, I dunno what happened to it then. I didn't approve or skip it or anything

Unionhawk

No idea

Kaizerwolf

it's lost to the ages now

Arperum

@twobugs Can't be it. since I have blue squares on routes I haven't even been close to.

two bugs

Yeah hell if I know

arda

14:25

@Kaizerwolf no reject it and set the user on fire for wasting a 2k's time

Jokes aside, I'd decline it if it was only that

Like twobugs said

two bugs

This game sends you on a different path than I think most people take through Gen 1

Unionhawk

It was e->stylized and pokemons->pokemon

arda

@twobugs is this gen 1 or 2 though?

Unionhawk

meh/meh

@arda gen 1, starters are charmander

gen 2 is mudkip (iirc?)

Kaizerwolf

@arda alright cool, I'll keep it in mind next time

Unionhawk

14:27

or is that gen 3

I don't know

Kaizerwolf

@Unionhawk Gen2 is Totodile

Unionhawk

ah right

arda

EMERALD IS GEN 1?

two bugs

Gen 2 is Cyndaquil, Totodile, Chikorita

arda

My childhood was a lie

Unionhawk

@arda wat

emerald is gen... 3?

two bugs

Yes, Emerald is gen 3

arda

Just like I remember

fredley

Encountered Moltres

1% catch rate :(

arda

So... That means that I misremember starters in emerald.

@fredley ouch

Unionhawk

You might be thinking of Pokemon LeafGreen, which is the gen 3 remake of the gen 1 release Pokemon Green (which was apparently the one released in Japan or something and NA got blue)

two bugs

14:30

@Unionhawk Not exactly

LeafGreen/FireRed were Gen 3 remakes of Blue

MadMAxJr

All Gens after Gen1 are imaginary.

two bugs

Nobody wants to talk about Green

Unionhawk

@twobugs Fine, whatever

arda

Praise Helix. Death to Arceus, the false god.

I can't wait for Pokemon Sun to release

Can anyone else... not see the entire Gen 1 map?

The right side is cut off

Unionhawk

@twobugs Hmm... yes

But I'm on mobile so

ymmv

fredley

@twobugs Yeah it's a bit janky, it doesn't scale to screen width

MadMAxJr

I don't know what the blue boxes on the routes are.

Unionhawk

and as such hide downvote in the css

You downvote if you're Hitler

basically, downvote has no real purpose

Barn (unit)

A barn (symbol b) is a unit of area equal to 10−28 m2 (100 fm2). Originally used in nuclear physics for expressing the cross sectional area of nuclei and nuclear reactions, today it is also used in all fields of high-energy physics to express the cross sections of any scattering process, and is best understood as a measure of the probability of interaction between small particles. A barn is approximately the cross-sectional area of a uranium nucleus. The barn is also the unit of area used in nuclear quadrupole resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance to quantify the interaction of a nucleus with...
