Things you used to think about Pokémon in your n00b days

[User4042]

That pikachu was a rabbit

 

[Mariomario64]

For some weird reason, a few years ago I thought Emerald was a Johto game due to my misunderstanding of this image in a guidebook and to my almost complete lack of knowledge of any main games before Gen IV.

 

[EctoBiologist]

lesseee...

that pokemon were real.

 

[Crackin355]

That the only weaknesses were the fire, water and grass things. I didn't even pay attention to it when it said super or ineffective. I just clicked A fast.

 

[IceShadow1199]

I thought that you could climb ledges

Geodude was a Pure Rock type

Geodude evolves into Onix.

 

[Yoshi K]

I didn't think Minccino had an evolution.

I drew a Poké Ball, and colored it red on both top and bottom.

 

[Cirdec]

I thought Ditto was a very good pokémon because of the stupid anime episode about him, and I used my master ball on him.

Ditto has no gender ._.

Also, you used your Master Ball? That's embarassing.

Ditto isn't that good, he needs to transform for victory

EDIT: ninja'd

or it can use struggle

 

[Gumball Machine]

I didn't know what Critical Hits were and I didn't understand type advantages too well.

Amusingly, before the 5th generation, you could have Ditto transform into something like a Pidgey, and catch it with just a mere Poke Ball with very little effort.

Turn it into a Reshiram, congratulations. You just wasted a Master Ball.

 

[MnSG]

Reshiram can't breed, so using a Master Ball on it is understandable, regardless of its catch rate.

 

[marioman1213]

True.

Well, considering I had just learned to read when I first played it, lots of stuff. I used to think the gender of a Pokemon affected its stats.

i thought males had higher atk and females had higher def because i ad two rattatas male and female with the same level, now i know it was natures.

i also thought the male sign meant female and vice versa

So did I.

I was just confused as fuck about them. Even though they were color coded by the time I started playing.

I was just confused as *bleep* about them. Even though they were color coded by the time I started playing.

my first game was firered. I released all of my nidoran because nidoran (male) who i thought was female, evolved into nidoking

 

[marioman1213]

I used to think Meditite evolved into Machoke because of Pokemon cards.
