Best In-Game NPC - Page 8

Agree with a lot of what's been said, but looking back on it, that guy on the beach in R/S who talks about the eventual disappearance of footprints you leave on the beach really speaks philosophical volumes about the triviality of human life versus nature's infinite expanse in a few text boxes.

Whitney used to give me big big problems. I remember the very first time I beat her was due to my Togepi using metronome and getting blizzard. The blizzard froze the god dam Miltank and it didn't unfreeze for the rest of the battle so my Crocnaw proceeded to kick its ass.

Then Morty gave me the biggest problems ever although I just decided to really over level my Pokemon and then I beat him.

Magikarp seller guy. Nuff said

One of Janine's doppelgangers in HG/SS (a male camper), after you beat him, says something along the lines of "Whats wrong with a boy dressing up as Janine?"

So many things, camper. So many things.

In R/S/E, when cycling down the cycling road and you speak to this guy who says,"Oh, hey, you got that bike from Rydel! Oh it's glaringly obvious. It says right on your bike... RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL..."

Because it was so long I started continuously pressing A... Only to accidently speak to him again. >.<

The Lass inside the Rock Tunnel that tell us to don't try anything with her in the darkness.

mcculla28 · Jul 9th, 2011, 3:51:58 AM

RBY: The Saffron Guards. They wouldn't let you through until you gave them something to drink, and how they could telepathically share it with the other guards without leaving the guard house. Also, if you glitch into Saffron City before giving the guards a drink, they "won't let you pass" but will kick you out of the city. :D

GSC: Black Belt Kenji. He would call me every five minutes to say "I remain dedicated to my training. Oooooooooaaaaaaaaargh!!!"

RSE: RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL, RYDEL...

For me, it's N. The way he changed when I defeated him in the Elite Four was so touching, his words stuck with me until this day.

In my opinion that guy is a complete asshole, who hasnt heard of a cold hearted psychopath, its basically a kid Voldemort who doesnt murder people
But thats my opinion anyway :)

My favourite NPC of allll time would have to be Ghetsis, some crazy lunatic who manages to fool hundreds upon hundreds of people into believing what he doesnt believe in and then rubs it your face when you find out with a freaking Hydreigon

Honus · Jul 12th, 2011, 1:10:29 AM

Probably Lanette, the fact that she was able to surmount her boss, Bill's sexist beliefs and general tyranny over his employees [see here] was extremely influential to myself and trainers across Hoenn and the revamped box system was the greatest pokemon-related innovation since Poke Balls taking precedence over Apricorns.

Synth_Metal · Jul 12th, 2011, 2:38:20 AM

A famous Juggler line (upon being defeated), from a Juggler in Fuchsia Gym, in Generation I, was "Oops, dropped my balls!"

tawp64 · Jul 12th, 2011, 5:45:54 AM

"I hear many people get seasick."

*gasp*

california roll · Jul 12th, 2011, 8:42:39 AM

Well, this may be irrelevant, but my FAVORITE npc ever is easily Grovyle from Mystery Dungeon 2. He's so COOL. I mean he's... I don't know. I just really like him.

But my favorite npc from the main series is probably Barry from D/P/Pt. He always goes on about how he's gonna beat you and even when you crush him he's just like "screw this shit imma beat you next time" and he never really does... Or Mira. I'm pretty sure she only exists to get you lost forever in that stupid cave (I cant't remember the name of the cave but its under the D/P/Pt cycling road.

IROD · Jul 12th, 2011, 3:43:27 PM

WHOOPS! Dropped my balls
HAH! You better have burn heal!
My reign is over already? It's not fair!
Those have got to be three of the best quotes from RBY

2sly4u · Jul 15th, 2011, 6:12:20 PM

Youngster Joey. No contest. His Rattata is in the top percentage of Rattata.

Rogan · Oct 10th, 2011, 1:20:48 PM

I would say Misty because of my First Yellow file, but after a bit of leveling I beat her with lvl 24 charmeleon... (Something's wrong here)

Maybe Lance because he used the same strategy as me, Hyper Beam spam. But anything with ice beam walked all over him.

So in RBY probably your rival. (until your levels equaled his.)

GSC, Whiteny. Fuck Miltank.

R/S/E, at this point I figured out how to play so... the Frontier brains.

D/P, Cynthia.

Honus Gladwell repeatedly mentions the "10,000-Hour Rule", claiming that the key to success in any field is, to a large extent, a matter of practicing a specific task for a total of around 10,000 hours.
