*Sigh* I wish my school band went and performed out of… the school! I play guitar, and most of the other kids in the band are awful.
I found out something really funny (not "Ha ha!" funny, but "Are you kidding me? That's awful!" funny) the other day. In a Canadian province called Quebec, they just set a new law. If there's a video game with a french version made, then you are not allowed to sell the English game unless you have the french version in stock as well. This means that many Quebec video game stores will start failing, as most french versions do not come out until six or so weeks after the English version. It's very funny if you know Quebec politics and history. Here goes:
Back in the late 1600's, Jaques Cartier claimed what is now Canada for the French. Britain took what is now the U.S.A. and claimed it for Britain. Samuel de Champlain established the first French colony, Quebec City. France and Britain were always tense. They had fought in many wars. Britain, wanting to rule all of North America, and France, which pretty much disliked Britain, decided to start the Seven Years' War in 1756. It ended in 1763, and Britain had won. So now that Britain had all of North America, they decided to let the French people stay where they were, keep their religion, and keep their heritage. They even gave special privileges to them that the British people didn't get! This made the the British people mad, so they went south and created their own independent nation, called the U.S.A. Britain didn't object, but started to block trade routes, and supply first nations people with weapons to fight the U.S.A. They also didn't give up promised land. This made the U.S.A. mad, so they attacked Britain during 1812(now called upper and lower Canada), but were pushed back and defeated. Very little land was gained or lost. All of the french people were in Canada (specifically Upper Canada, which was southern) and settled in what is now Quebec. However the French were always wanting more, and were upset with Britain. This has excelled into the point where they asked TWICE to become their own country. They even went to France and said, "Um… Can we, like, join up with you?" but France replied, "Jeez, we have enough problems, let alone looking after you guys!" Quebec is so attached to their heritage, that they are constantly asking the government to let them have special laws, just as stated above.

Pokemon ain't even actual animals gng.
I really like the old-school fansite feel here. The Favorite Pokémon Picker and catch rate tools are the kind of things that make a fan site actually useful instead of just another social feed.
Cool to see a guestbook still active too.
Cool
found this site from the favorite pokemon thing, and now I'm trying to find the secret link
Nice website
This is pretty cool honestly, made it to the end! I found the Icelandic stuff pretty interesting lol…
This website is so helpful! I wanted to know the odds of me catching the paldea legends in color-coordinating pokeballs (luxury ball for ting-lu, nest ball for wo-chien, repeat ball for chi-yu, and dive ball for chien-pao (yes, I know the pokeballs I chose added no catch buff whatsoever, I did it for the colors)), and the catch calculator was extremely helpful for this!
My favorite thing about Pokémon are the old school fansites and forums, like TCoD. I've loved Pokémon since I was little, but it wasn't until I got online and found sites like this one, Mew's Hangout, Mewtwofan's Pokémon Page, Suta-Raito, etc. that I truly fell in love with the series. The fact that most modern fans think the Internet was invented in 2010 and have no idea these old sites existed makes me so sad.
Thanks im caching a magneton in firered
Cool
You're right; I was thinking of some other glitch that existed in both.
I'm not super well-versed in the history of glitches in Japan, but I think the major glitch that got really famous in Japan was the select button glitch, which was fixed in Yellow and all localizations, and I'm pretty sure that can result in glitch Pokémon, so my assumption would be if the Old Man glitch wasn't available there, that's probably how Japanese players would have gotten to know Missingno. and company.
"and in Red and Blue (and their Japanese counterparts)"
Not to be nitpicky a whole 10 months later, but from what I've read (e.g. https://glitchcity.wiki/wiki/Old_man_glitch#Compatibility and https://github.com/pret/pokered/wiki/Left-Shore-can-spawn-Pok%C3%A9mon ), it sounds like the coast glitch actually didn't exist in the Japanese Red, Green, or Blue versions, and it was an error introduced in the localization process (and then fixed again in all versions of Yellow).
That said, now I'm wondering how Japanese players discovered MissingNo., and also how such a non-text-related bug could've been introduced in localization…
I think I'm 25 years too late for this, but cool website. Got any tips for assembling a team that rocks the battle tower?
Let's give this a try!
This helped me catch Lugia in a basic Poke Ball after I learned that there's no reason to get it down to 1 HP, just 49% or lower. Huge time saver, thanks!
Catch mechanics are weird because I caught Ho-Oh in HGSS with my very first ultra ball in the very first try, but I'm 40 ultra balls and I still haven't caught Suicune despite having the same catch rate.
Wow, I had a hardcoded list there and it was just missing Clefairy somehow all this time. Thanks! It should be fixed now in every calculator.
Clefairy doesn't seem to get a catch rate boost from Moon Balls in the calculator from gen 6/7 and onward.
Its spheal what do you wantbme to say
Thank you for letting me peek into my own soul with the Favorite Pokemon Picker!! I've finally made peace with my love for Tyranitar <3
