HG/SS was a true love letter to the pokemon fans, specially for us that grew playing Gen I and II. It had everything that any fan from that era would have wanted and more 😁
Couldn’t agree more!
even had content from gen 3-4 as well.
Too bad they didn’t fix the level curve
@@McDoinkySad how the bad level curve of johto is still in hgss.
@@scanchannel3259 Major oversight for no reason
Goated postgame, I remember struggling with some of it as a 3rd grader that just hit A through dialogue and beat everyone with Typhlosion and Ho-Oh
That was basically me with Feraligatr, until I got destroyed by Red 😂
@@TerraQuake1bro same
Same but i never got past e4
bro I remember buying like 60 revives and just cycling pokemon until i beat read lmao@@TerraQuake1
I don’t think child me actually knew how to catch Pokémon, my typhlosion was level 100 when I hit the E4
I will never, ever forget the feeling of realising Kanto was fully available in GSC. Obviously you fight the league at Indigo Plateau but you couldn’t check the full map until you arrive in Vermilion City for the first time, and when I heard that music, oomph. Favourite game for life.
Ya I experienced the same with Pokemon HeartGold!
Same , I used to barely read the dialogue when I was really little and skip through everything and was so amazed when I arrived in vermillion
SAME. nothing else in any game will ever come close
its crazy how much stuff gamefreak used to cram in the postgame of pokemon in gens 4 and 5, now we are forced to pay for DLC to get an actual postgame
Ya I miss the good old days lol
Even then the DLC post games suck
Despite being open world, scarlet/violet seem pretty small in comparison
In SWSH's case, sure I would consider that paid post-game. But for SV, the DLC straight up is part 2 to the story AND then postgame. I wouldn't defend SWSH's dlc, even though I enjoyed it, but SV is much better. And our situation is much better than how we used to have it. USUM for example is technically the postgame to SM, we just had to pay full game price for it. Same thing with HGSS and Platinum adding proper post game to their respective regions. Having DLC means they can extend the lifespan of the games and add things they might've not had time for otherwise. Gamefreak are being very rushed, and making DLC is just the better solution to making the most out of the games. It just depends on how you look at the situation to really understand it.
The dwindling amount of post game content is a separate issue, the DLC is meant to replace the Third Game each series had (besides X&Y) which was just the original with a few upgrades and mildly different story sold at full price.
I much prefer the DLC approach which is almost half price by comparison and doesn't make you replay 90% of the same stuff for 10% new things, as well because the update adding everything is made to the base game and buying the DLC just unlocks the direct access you can still gain any of the New Pokemon or Items by simply trading for them so if you don't care about story you don't even have to buy the DLC for the additions (an inverse example of this was Gen 4 Rotom which only had it's Ghost Mode in Diamond and Pearl meaning you Had to buy Platinum if you wanted to be able to even see it's additional forms in it's debut generation).
I'm not much of a fan of modern Pokemon games. But the handheld games will always be a time in which Gamefreak were at their peak.
Gotta agree with that!
Yea, haven't played since 3ds era. Gen 5 was the last great gen. I miss the 2D era because it was peak
HeartGold and SoulSilver is not really a modern game per se. Since it came out so long ago.
The DS era is the peak era of Pokemon
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 You have no idea what you're missing out on. Generation VI had lots of great stuff too. For example, the Hoenn remakes were awesome.
Watching this now as a 22 year old, no wonder my save file was so so long. I wish they made Pokémon games like this now
One of my all time favorites. The best part was the battle frontier, 11-12 year old me never knew about randomizers, but one of the battle factories had a randomized rental teams that you can pick & fight with and I was hooked
Ya I wish I would’ve spent more time in the battle factories, but 6 year old me didn’t even know they existed 😂
As much as I love Pokémon D/P/PT. HG/SS and B2 W2 are the greatest games in the series, so so much stuff to do and an overall great experience
Emerald, HGSS, Platinum & BW2 are the absolutely goated games of the series.
I strongly agree. I tell people all the time Bw2 succeeded BW by a long shot and HGSS is so goated it has to be in your top 2
you missed the part where you go back to dragons den to do a multi battle with your rival against clair and lance, think that also unlocks more powerful teams for the elite 4 and champion at indigo plateau
Unfortunately my guide didn’t show that, but I wish I did that because it sounds pretty cool!
@@TerraQuake1 yeah if i recall the levels of those fights are in the 70s and low 80s so they are meant to fill in the difference in difficulty between blue and red
@@TerraQuake1 It's one of my favorite parts of the game because it's where Silver finally changes his heart and decides to love his pokemon, and the evidence shows by his golbat finally evolving into crobat. Then after the dragon's den fight he appears occasionally when you try to enter the Pokemon league like previous rivals, and he FINALLY has his kadabra and haunter evolved, which means he finally made some friends that were willing to trade him to get his mons evolved.
@@jansonshrock2859bro why am i crying after reading a yt comment 🥲🥲🥲
I just barely managed to win in the double battle since they took out my rival's pokemons and Lance had one Dragonite left while Clair had one Kingdra left and my team barely won, with my Crobat (I think was my last pokemon) dealing the final blow to Kingdra after defeating Dragonite
If i may?, if you got Arceus and brought him to the ruins of alph guy, you could trigger and event....and a cutscene. Then you'd receive and egg containing Dialga, Palkia, or Giriatina.
Every time I replay HGSS I discover a new detail, just recently I find out that you can get a kanto and a hoenn starter on the postgame too
That’s one of the best parts about Pokemon. Even if I’ve played the game 10 times, I still discover something new lol
Huh… never knew that
You... Didn't know that? I feel so sorry for you
@@blueheart9873 relax buddy, there’s more to life than a Pokémon game💀💀
@@metalfaceortiz5739 relax kiddo, you commented under a comment where the whole topic is your life revolving around replaying the same game 💀🤦💀😂💀
I’m surprised the Elite 4 rematches weren’t mentioned since they have the updated stronger teams
Ya they definitely have some cool teams, I just didn’t go back to battle them, since they weren’t listed on the guide I was using
I just love these games. I remember none of us wanted to lose our legendaries. So instead of restarting we transferred our Pokémon to the new copies. And because of this they barely listened but because they were lvl 50 it didn’t matter. I’d breeze through all the gyms. Good times.
Back in the good old days 🥺
HGSS/Crystal and B2W2 are equal to me as the best pokemon games, with Emerald and Platinum coming as a close seconds.
This is the only right opinion tbh.
Only thing that would make it better is if the wild pokemon were higher level in the kanto region. Maybe they kept them low though so it could be like starting a whole new game, but if i remember the gym leaders are high so not sure.
I agree, I was never motivated to catch any of the wild Pokemon in Kanto, since they were so much lower than my party Pokemon
Dude I’m happy for you for how popular these videos are. I see that you have a few thousand subs but hundreds of thousands of views on this series. That’s such a huge step for you and hopefully you can turn CZcams into a career.
I appreciate the support 😁 That means a lot!
there was also the GS ball event, getting Celebi and some special pichu pikachu variants at the forest, and by having Celebi, you get to fight Giovanni at a higher level
HeartGold and SoulSilver may be far from my favorite Pokémon mainline games, but their postgames are undoubtedly one of, if not, the best in the entire franchise.
I agree, it’s almost unbeatable
@@TerraQuake1kid named black and white 2
Rematching the elite 4 is intense and filling out the national dex via safari zone were my favorite parts
My first Pokémon game I ever played was Yellow, which I played and beat for a few months before eventually getting the newest game on the block Platinum. I have over 400 hours in Platinum over the years. It’s one of my most cherished possessions.
Then when I got Soulsilver, I was flabbergasted. The fact that Kanto was just in the game like that was magical. I ended up trading over my Emploeon from Platinum and dominating the Kanto region with him.
I’m still sad that I lost my copy of Soulsilver to this day. Especially since I got every single mystery gift for it.
What I wouldn’t give to have it back…
Im glad I just found my old copy, time to replay it after all this time
im doing my first playtrough of these remakes i was wondering what they added in the remakes and man it sure is alot compared to the originals.
so far its one of my favorite remakes i also rng'd the save file as a cutecharm glitch profile so shiny's left right and center 😅
HG and SS are definitely filled to the brim with content!
I cried when I fought Red. I was battling my younger self
When I meet red on mt sliver for the first time I was like “ok I think my lev 68 team should be fine. I’m not expecting to much of a problem”
*ONE LEV 88 PIKACHU LATER*
“Holy s**t I got absolutely violated. AND THAT WAS JUST THE FIRST POKÉMON OF HIS TEAM”
Exactly how it went for me too 😂
So true! After bossing every trainer in the game just to find red not knowinf whT to expect
I feel like I do this postgame in a weird way. I walk around and defeat every single trainer in the Kanto region first, then take on the gym leaders in the order you take them on in a Kanto play through
Also if you go to the dragon cave after you beat the elite four you’ll be able to have a double battle with ur rival against lance and Clare idk if you need nat dex first
Ya I’ve seen that I missed that. Unfortunately, my guide just didn’t include that event
You also missed the sinjoh ruins, that was one of the most immersive post game parts in my opinion
Unfortunately, I don’t think I had any way to access them, since it was a special event
I think there’s a possibility if u have a diamond/pearl/platinum game, there’s also the time travel event where you discover the origin of team rocket with celebi
One really small detail I miss in the old games is how many random character cameos they would do from other regions. Haven’t really seen it since before sword and shield came out
I haven't played the post game or Soul Silver in general in forever, I didn't even know you could do more stuff after defeating red I always sort of thought that was the end and never played past that point really.
Post game happens once you beat red since that is the games final boss
As a 35 year old im so glad I grew up playing and owning all the original games till ruby ( my last one ive bought ) and still all works and they play perfect ❤. Tried Sword and shield because it looked the closest to the best ( original 2 gens ) and it failed me miserably
Pokémon gold was my childhood, for a little kid having I think somewhere around 240+ hours was pretty abnormal for me. I quite literally would just play it all day, and as long as I could at night before I couldn’t see the game boy’s screen anymore (I remember cupping the red “on” light with my hand to see what I was doing lol). Sooo many good memories, and when hg/ss came out I not only couldn’t believe it, but as time has gone on, I have appreciated it so much more because it really is peak pokemon. I feel lucky that my most beloved Pokémon game was also one of the best remakes too.
I feel the same way about the Johto games… I have so much nostalgia with them!
It is THE best remake. None of the others come close.
I started on gold and you know how hyped I was to step into kanto?? And started seeing Pokémon that I knew better 🥺😂 consider I played the entire game wanting to catch a charizard or charmander to evolve and attempting to catch lances
Nothing like coming off the S.S. Aqua and seeing Kanto for the first time!
Soul silver and heart gold were the best remakes of all time. Literally perfect
6:44 that’s my only beef with this game
In regular GSC when you do a mystery gift Cal will change to them
Hgss is my favorite games that they had released. They made the games look so good while adding events and post game that made it so enjoyable.
Hey, i don‘t know if someone has said this jet, but if you complete all the puzzles in the Ruins of Alph and enter them with an Arceus afterwards you will get the best postgame event in any Pokemon game ever
Is there any way to transfer Groudon so you can then catch Rayquaza ?? I am playing on iOS emulator.
Currently playing heart gold and im excited to get to the post game
the absolute best
As a non-native english speaker i got stuck with the power plant for ages. Such a weird and unintuitive "puzzle" to have to speak to a swimming ring... Spent so long beating the elite that most my team were over lvl 80 (when i finally found out you needed a moonstone to evolve nidorina lol) Great game, I'm glad it was my first :)
Great video 💯
Thanks for the support!
8:08 idk, maybe get rid of Magneton, since you can't even evolve it in HGSS, replace it with a legendary, and evolve Growlithe and Weepinbell.
You can get evolution stones as soon as Goldenrod in HGSS.
Wow, I’m 100% gonna replay it now that I know that I missed all that gen 3 content 😮
It is sort of easy to miss, but it’s really fun to do!
Its hard to get to by playing vanilla, but you should’ve mentioned the Arceus event at alph ruins as well
Ya it’s definitely an iconic part of these games, but I just had no way of accessing it
@@TerraQuake1you can get the gen 4 game events of past by messing around with the systems internet settings i was able to do every single event from gen 4 last year doing this on a unmodded 3ds and original cartridge i think its worth looking into next time you want to do a playthrough of gen 4 because it adds so much more cool stuff to the games
Sounds cool, I’ll be sure to take a look!
Still a number of things I've yet to do lmao. My progress through the postgame is very slow as I decided to shiny hunt every legendary I came across. Didn't do the steven quest, mewtwo, the other box legendary, nor red which means I also didn't get the gen3 legends. Don't know when I'll be doing all this😬
HG/SS is jam packed with content!
This game and Pokémon platinum was my favorite game wish they can re make these 😢
you also can rematch the gym leaders at the saffron city fighting dojo
And you did not even visit the Sinjoh Ruins. Those are truly incredible
Unfortunately, I had no way of accessing that event
I’d love to see a game with all regions
Maybe someone can confirm this for me idky I think it was original silver/gold but I remember after beating red and eventually going to his house he actually appeared there sitting by the table and when you talk to him he disappears, both my friend And I swear it happened but can’t find any videos of it. 🤔
i don't really know if these count as "post game" per se but perhaps there's also the celebi event in ilex forest, the spiky earred pichu event also in ilex forest, sinjoh ruins, and the event with steven by the pewter museum to catch the other hoenn lati pokemon that was exclusive to the other game
Unfortunately, I didn’t have any way to access those limited time events
It is actually still possible to access the mystery gift events. Look it up, there's a server running and you have to do some stuff manually with your wifi and DNS. Currently getting event pokemon on Gen 5
You can actually beat red with a team in the late 50s and early 60s if you use pseudos' and tanks like snorlax, but its extremely hard.
What other Pokémon did you use for your play through?
battle frontier was so much fun
gen 4 and 5 produced the best games in the franchise. i wish we got a game that was all the regions from gen1-5 combined with gen 5 graphics. would be PERFECT
I still don’t understand how I knew to do all of this as a kid without CZcams.
You probably spent a 100 hours wandering around catching the same pokemon until you stumbled upon something lol
Really love this games. It`s crazy how much story there is to play after the normal game! Great Video, too! How do you record your gameplay?
Thanks for the support! I use OBS Studio to record 👍
@@TerraQuake1 thank you for the entertainment!
But what is with the radio channel where you can have the OG music?
I’ve always wanted to replace HGSS but I can’t bring myself to restart. I have a spiky-eared Pichu and nowhere to transfer it to, and I can’t bear the thought of deleting her.
can transfer her to a rom of HGSS on PC
Just buy another copy
I never got to beat the elite 4 in soulsilver when I was little. If my ds screen wasn’t messed up I’d finally try to win and do the postgame of soulsilver like I should’ve.
My DS is also messed up nowadays 😢
For the 25th anniversary of the original Gold and Silver we got... a generation six game.. great..
Realistically if they were to remake Johto again in modern hardware they would likely remove Kanto from the post game due to time constraints and the games being made in 3D. The only real way a remake of Johto would work without removing Kanto is if they made the game in the same style as Bdsp due to time constraints.
If only they had the time 😔
Honestly, I kinda wish they would remake Johto, but Im not ready for it yet.
@@Undonebasher72 the only possible way to remake johto and meet the deadline is if johto remakes have three years of development and are made top down style like bdsp. Bdsp roughly only had one year of development. Remaking johto the same way they remade the let’s go games will only result in a crap ton of cut content or Kanto being included in a johto remake through a very big patch which will essentially mean that the base cartridges are incomplete be cause Kanto will likely not be included in a fully tall Chibi character johto remake.
“Lack of time” but they have time making everyone pay for stupid subscription and DLC passes lmao
I honestly wouldn't mind Kanto being taken out that much. Would be a shame but as long as the regular Johto game is there then I'm not too bothered, since HGSS will always exist anyway.
I'd much rather ditch the post game and have the game new and fresh instead of having it like BSDP...
How do I download the ROM for this game? I can’t find a decent one
I still feel Emerald had the best postgame content. Between the Battle Frontier and Contests, there was so much to do after becoming champion. I put 500 hours into Emerald as a kid.
I don’t even see it as a post game anymore
There is one event in the post game that you could've done and it involves A whole lotta Cynthia
Soul Silver was like the best game to have as a kid. I got platinum and pokemon yellow as hand me downs, so buying soul silver as a 8 year from my own saved up money made it so much better. Best bang for buck pokemon game ever.
The thing i love baout these games sis you can get the other box art legendary in your game without trades
DID YOU DO THE DRAGON TAMER TAG TEAM FIGHT WITH YOUR RIVAL ?
Never played any remakes but GSC were the best gen of pokemon period.
Can’t go wrong with Johto 🤷♂️
When Pokemon was at its peak.
You missed the double battle against Lance and Claire with Silver
I begged my parents to buy me this game for the ds when I was super young and I still have the original box and pokewalker that came with it lol. I have so many hours put into it💀
I did the same thing, but I think I got rid of the pokewalker 😭
@@TerraQuake1 nooooooo ):
i now remember why i had 428 hours of playtime in this game as a kid
4:24 tm given to you is charge beam not zap cannon
But did you have the cute charm glitch making everything shiny!?
What is that slappin tune at the end? Sounds like a remix from a Sonic game, or is it Pokémon?
I believe the one I used towards the end of the video was the HG/SS End Credits theme, but I might be wrong. If you’re talking about the outro card though, that is GlitchxCity’s Ice Path remix 👍
You missed getting either dialga or palkia, and I think giratina also if you get the other orb you can get rayquaza
The only negative side I get this game you can’t change that appears in viridian city like you can in GSC
Crystal version was the first to have kanto postgame, really changed everything
August 2023, I just now found out you can access a different floor if you have a rotom😭
You learn something new everyday 🤷♂️
Just thought, is there supposed to be 2 of each Legendary bird? Because HG/SS takes place 3 years after FR/LG, wherein canonically the protagonist catches all 150 original Pokemon, including the birds, how then can the protagonist from the sequels catch the same bird?
Each pokemon game is a different universe
@@valentino-yv4vw But Red exists in HG/SS? Unless you’re saying the Red in HG/SS is not as good as the Red in FR/LG?
I just realised your team is Fearow ,Raticate ,Magneton ,Weepinbell ,Growlithe and Seaking
Thats a unique team but why didn't you evolve your weepinbell and growlithe ?
A team of GOATS right there! I just never bothered to get the evolutionary stones 😂
Why does everyone have a fearow?
I think Kanto in the Gen 2 games is a little overblown. It is cool, dong get me wrong. But it’s not really the equivalent of whole new game, rather it’s like a map expansion. It shouldn’t take experienced players more than 10 hours to reach Red
Fighting Red is fun
Wait the kanto Region is post game, i really remember it being part of the Story
i have still not caught latios cause he flees as soon as you try attack it any help lol.?
The roaming Pokemon can always be difficult to catch. I would recommend getting a Pokemon with a move like Mean Look, in order to trap Latios in the battle. Then put damage on it and hope for the best with Ultra Balls
Haha I am done with national dex!!! 780 hours of playing finally!!! All 493 caught!!!
Playing something like stormsilver or gs chronicles would take this to another level. Great video
I do plan on doing some romhacks once I get done with most of the main series games 🔥
Honestly, having another region as a postgame only works for Gen 2 specifically because all they had to add was Kanto. The moment they would try that idea in Gen 3 and beyond then you would have to add not just Kanto but Johto, Hoenn and all other regions missing, otherwise fans would just be asking why one region is there but not another. At some point then the idea would lose it's novelty or it would have the developers run into a corner with how much they would have to add and if it ever would be enough. That's why Kanto in Gen 2 feels special because it's the only one and they can focus all their effort in one.
I think the best type of postgame would be a combination of FR/LG, Platinum and BW2 where there are Sevii Islands type seperate locations you can travel to in any order for some sidequests or added legendary events plus fight like some boss trainers there for challenge. Next to those is a Battle Frontier AND a PWT where you can battle/meet the protagonists and champions of other regions for the nostalgia fanservice.
It's definitely the best, but that's not saying much considering there isn't much challenge in the post game
Should have edited the game file to have groundon to get the Jade orb.
4:50 Absolutely mental that your silent protagonist talks here.
Doesn’t feel right lol
You forgot to tell us the part where you rematch the elite 4 and they will use their real team
I never rly considered this post game lol I just considered this part of the game like ik the credits roll after lance fight but its still basically a whole half of the game lol
I really wish we could battle all the elite four members and gym leaders from the other games with their music. Like that would be EPIC!😩😍
Wait how have I played Pokémon soulsilver multiple times and still have the game and have NEVER knew that you get gifted Pokémon and catch other non Johto legendaries lol
That’s what this video is for 👍
Red as the final boss is goated!
Best final boss imo!
wait bro you didn't do the last rival battle lol
