I was lost in pearl for a long time bc I didn't know how to find spear pillar and had to look up a guide online to be able to beat the game

Also I just made my sister play through twist mountain on black for me lol https://twitter.com/MAGNEDETH/status/1158703987283124224
I played blue on virtual console earlier this year and am extremely fortunate to have done so in the age of the internet and smartphones because I had to constantly look up walkthroughs for most of the dungeons

silph co was the most frustrating
also I completely missed catching a nidoran and getting the dream eater tm early on so I had to do some backtracking later
while I'm bringing this thread back, idk if this counts but while I'm usually able to steamroll the league pretty quickly I kept losing to the johto elite four and lance over and over in hg for about a month and it got to the point where I dreaded booting up the game
I did finally beat lance after god knows how much trial and error but man. the johto level scaling fucked me over.

losing a lot was disheartening but I kinda had to let it happen so I'd get the money and experience to continue
