![]() ![]() but now they updated Blaine into a kooky old man who's all about quizes! His gym has been turned into a goddamn Japanese quiz show, with Blaine as an emcee, and even the little Deadrock statues in front of the gym has Blaine mustaches! You are asked questions, and you get Blaine dolls that rocket off as a prize, before challenging Blaine himself, which is hilarious. What an irresponsible man!īlaine's gym was always the most unmemorable gym to me back in the Generation I games, due to the pretty lame puzzle of being a quiz. Not sure why Blaine put his goddamn gym key here, though, telling kids to spelunk into the crumbling building owned by gangsters that engage in genetic experimentation. Suddenly it's clear that it was Mewtwo that fucked up this entire mansion and tore it apart. Particularly the basement segment, which is just straight-up a pokemon laboratory out of the anime, complete with Mewtwo's tank. In the original games (both Gen I and the Gen III remakes) there are always hints of the Mewtwo experiments, and that the fancy mansion was actually a base used by Team Rocket, but it's never quite as explicit as it was here, I think. but Pokemon Mansion now actually properly looks like an abandoned lab where experiments on Mewtwo took place. It's as much of a Rattata and Grimer-infested place. One of the biggest gripes I had with the old games - which is that the game really doesn't give much of an indication to tell you where to jump off the ledge to get to the next floor - is gone now. The game leads me into the Pokemon Mansion, which is all overgrown and looks pretty fucked up. fun! We get an easter egg of a poster in the Pokemon Center warning people of the active volacno, and canonically it did erupt before the timeline of Gold/Silver, which is a nice little easter egg. Next up is Cinnabar Island, which I thought was. other than getting Articuno (which I did do here), there really isn't much incentive to go into this maze. The puzzle seems slightly less complex, although I don't really remember much of the first-generation Seafoam Islands. I find it pretty interesting that the Strength blocks are like, pillars, now. ![]() I did go through Seafoam Islands, which is still pretty barren and even more boring now that the wild pokemon battles are gone. the fact that you just wander around this beautiful overworld and capture Pokemon as they spawn out of grass and water and caves and stuff. And that's honestly what I think is one of the biggest appeals of the Let's Go games. after Saffron City, I just sort of goof around, beating up trainers on the Pokemon Road and the various sea routes, building up my team and catching Pokemon.
