Okay guys? I know what a shiny pokemon is. I stuck around for gen II. I caught the red gyarados (and a shiny rattata and I was disappointed by the cheap palette swapping). I just didn't understand what Katie meant by "easy mode", so I thank Cori for explaining that to me.

I'm a completionist. I couldn't even get all 151 of gen I (mainly because only one of my friends had a link cable). I managed to get a little bit over 100, but then ~90% of my pokemon were erased by (I suspect) using the Missingno item multiplying glitch too much. (Anyone else ever run into that? All boxes suddenly rendered empty except one? I only ran into one other kid that happened to. For me only box 3 survived, but for him, it was box 1. And I organize my boxes by type. If I were a more persistent little tyke, I could plot to usurp Lt. Surge, but I wasn't, so I just cried.) Then Gen II rolled around. Getting the three legendary dogs took forever, but after a long time, I managed it, but none of my friends had a link cable (the other one graduated). And then my file was erased when the internal battery ran out and FYI, I don't have a solderer or experience with one! So yeah. I gave up on Pokemon.
I did do a bit of research though, just for this.
