Your most Memorable moment from Gold/Silver

Yup, stupid Milktank. Was so difficult to kill.
I swear the new HG/SS is even harder with moo drink + Rollout + Lumb berry + other stuff.

Also... going up the lighthouse and getting the medicine for ampharos was good :).

Erm... That's about it?
 
I caught a Shiny Pinsir and it was gray instead of brown...
At the time I thought shiny pokemon could come in a variety of colors for each species and I was disappointed that I got a gray shiny instead of purple or something, haha.
 
I had quite a few.

1) After you beat your rival, he says his name is .......
So that's what I named him.
2) Being able to pwn my friends with Typhlosion
3) Working out on Crystal how to make my male character turn blue.
4) Beating that stupid cow.
5) Wondering wtf Entei was when I first saw it.
6) Falling in love with Raikou
7) Having Aimpom :)
8) Being a pokemon nerd, everyone wanted me to help them, so I had to get everyone a heracross :(
9) Tricking my friend into thinking mine was the real shiny Ho-oh, so I could get his shiny one XDXDXD
 
Mine was running into Yanma in Union Cave. I didnt even know where to get Yanmas, nevermind they werent meant to even appear in Union cave (Glitches FTW) and i didnt catch it, i was annoyed...
 
I was in Silver Cave, think I was going to fight Red again. Got into a battle with an Ursaring - WAIT WHAT THE FUCK THAT'S A GOLD URSARING OMGOMGOMGOMG

However, I only had a team of level 100s. All of which, I figured, would OHKO said Ursaring - however, I also had about 90 Ultra Balls.

Getting out IIRC my Lapras, I just began chucking Ultra Balls at it. After the first thirty, I was scared that I wouldn't catch it, but eventually I caught it...WOW.

...however, nowadays I've lost Gold, Silver's dead and Crystal has been buggy for the past few years (and the battery's probably dead anyway, oh well). Was good at the time though.
 
The goddamn cow for sure. In fact, he was the reason that I got used to switching long before I started battling against real players. Take one rollout, switch out, basically get him to exhaust the rollout and then switch back to Crocs for the finish.
 
Borrowing a version of the game without a working save system, good times. Being like 7, I never got bored of repeating the first 2 gyms.
When I got a working copy, I spent a fortune on batteries for my GBA. Also good times.

EDIT: Also, Miltank was freaking hard in GSC, but on HG/SS it was easy. Geodude with rock smash owned it.

(Rollout was a nightmare)
 
In crystal my favorite moments were:
Beating Miltank
Hearing the music that played when I ran into Entei or Raikou
Beating Red with low-leveled pokemon
Catching the shiny Gyrados
Getting a Quagsire on my team.

These are my fond memories of crystal, I still hunt down Raikou and Entei to hear the cool music.
 
most angering moment in crystal

the first time i played the game when i was very young, i could not figure out how to get to mr. pokemon's house. so by the time i finally did my quilava, yes quilava was lev 30. hahaha looking back that must have been really really tedious
 
Well, I had several favorite moments.

1. Spamming leer on miltank and then getting a critical hit with bite
2. When Lance's Dragonite shot the guy with hyper beam
3. The freakin' bug catching contest where I beat this kid who had a Scyther with my Caterpie
4. Riding on that awesome train.
 
Eveyone remembers that damn cow with rollout. I swear, that 3 gym run where Bugsy owned you with fury cutter, Whitney and then Morty where you couldnt use most of your attacks and hypnosis being jammy... Hardest 3 gym run in any game.

Somehow whitney was so much easier this time round, i think because clefable didnt start with metrenome and get jammy and also the cow didnt start with rollout either... Also helped it only took 2 hits to kill..

But man i remember that being so damn hard in G/S

Yeah Whitney is a little easier (HG/SS), but Bugsy and Morty, oh damn, on the first one I got killed by Focus Energy+U-Turn rape (quite the opposite of me laughing at 2hp damage fury cutter), on the second I was like: could someone tell this bastard to stop spamming Shadow Ball? Its killing every member of my team! (Damn Special/Physical split that turned shadow ball into special)

The most memorable moment for me was beating Kingdra (seriously, it was impossible to hit her SE: grass, no, electric, no, ice, no and at that point I decided "screw it, lets spam thunderpunches") and the battle against red, the sheer level of his pokemon just scared me ^^
 
Mine is actually from Stadium 2 so I guess it counts.

It is beating the E4 tower (much harder than the in-game) in Stadium 2 with the team I had made with some of my favorite pokes of the time. I took it straight off the cartridge and without any knowledge of competitive games was beating the E4 with a stallish team I came up with myself.
 
Here's a few that I remember of...

- Getting stuck in the Ice Cave
- Getting stuck in Whirl Islands
- Stepping foot in Kanto after beating the Elite Four (omg the adventure continues!)
- Using a Wobbuffet against my friends in Link Battles. Gotta love messing with your friends' heads!

But the one thing that saddened me the most was when I found my old GBC with my Silver cart a few years ago, only to discover that the battery responsible for storing my save died...
 
My most memorable I guess would be accidentally deleting my Entei when I fucked up on the cloning...was pretty pissed back then XD
