Part 1 of Leaf Green - The Adventure Begins!
I'll make some custom thumbnails to add to these and will try to reduce the flickering on the video from part 3 onwards, think I need to change the filter setting on the gameboy player.

Always weird when babies have rivals.
Open the menu with START. "Yeah, a sign outside already told me that!!"
Could not agree more with the interacting with everything available!
Technically you could have gone and saw Daisy before meeting Prof. Oak at the exit of town, not that it'd be useful in any way.
I love how you walked north in Viridian City, saw the guy passed out on the road and turned back, all in silence.
She only realises you're looking at her notes after you've read four pages.
Do more editorialising / mentioning of your previous times with the games! I like it.
Feathers makes me think of Feathers McGraw from Wallace and Gromit.
Re. Old Man - "I've CLEARLY caught 2 Pokémon already." Did you make a subtle reference to the Gen 1 Old Man glitch? "It's nowhere near as useful..."
I'm thinking of some more nicknames!

Always weird when babies have rivals. Yeah, seems a bit implausible. The game sure like's it's tutorials though still better than the one's in the modern games where everything is over explained and seems like it can't be skipped when starting a new game Yeah, it's interesting to spend a bit more time and see what's in each location. Yeah, realised I missed talking to her when I first watched it back Must have thought nope not getting involved Think I was just planning to check if there was anything or anyone else to talk to first. Yeah, I don't think she was paying attention in class Thanks, I'll try to include some more mentions of previous times I've played the games Nice, was just a chance name opposed to a reference on this occasion but like Wallace and Gromit too Yeah, couldn't resist making a refence to the glitch Some name ideas from me (some for a LOT later!!) Clefairy - Dilys Zubat - BloodSkies Oddish - StenchItUp Diglett - Earthmover Abra - Mind Games Bellsprout (female) - Acidia Tentacool - Well Jel. Gastly - obNoxious Onix - ChainO'Rox Ponyta - Flame Trax Doduo - RunTheSky Lapras - Slide Away Sorry so many of them require the use of both upper and lowercase!!
Thanks, will definitely use those, may obtain Oddish a bit later as it's Fire Red exclusive but I'll trade one over

Being able to switch the move order in battle - "That's handy" - IKR!!
Ruffled and Feathers. Nice. They need to be in a double battle, and placed in that order!
Ah the optional battle that I missed out on most of the time.
So annoying that they moved the Nidorans from Route 22. They seem to use Yellow's Pokémon distribution. That sux. I also hate that Chansey doesn't appear in Cerulean Cave in Gen 3. Like, WTF!! Cerulean Cave is meant to be a free-for-all!!
One thing I do like about Kanto - the league being where it is makes the badge checking not just a formality!
I hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand AttackI hate Sand Attack Bane of my existence in the early game!
"you can't jam out"??
"call Prof. Oak on the PC!" Never gonna do it.
Respect for talking to trainers after battling them!
"I can't even RUN yet. Don't TELL me I'm RUSHING."

Being able to switch the move order in battle - "That's handy" - IKR!! Yeah, that's a feature I've missed since they changed it in gen 4, unfortunately although gen 3 games Colosseum and XD are also lacking this feature. Yeah, defiantly planning to do that for a double battle, will probably bring Ruffled back on the team for a while after Stinger evolves to Beedrill. I used to miss or skip the early rival battle but I tend to always do it now for the extra event and experience from the battle Yeah, I'd forgotten that it was different from Red and Blue for a while, causing me to spend quite a lot of time in the grass on route 22. After checking the strategy guide for FRLG, looks like the Nido's are available on route 3 so should be able to catch mad woman after beating Brock. Nidoran (f) also appears more often in Leaf Green too Yeah, I'm not sure there are any other leagues you could reach the entrance of without all the gym badges. Yeah, accuracy lowering moves are awful, I'm embarrassed I didn't think of sending out Feather's until after the battle when Keen Eye would have rendered Sand Attack useless Yeah, seems an odd statement from a Bug Catcher, would work for a Musician but their trainer class isn't in this game Yeah, I rarely ever do that Thanks, I nearly forgot at first because it works a bit differently in Colosseum with the trainers automatically reading their dialogue or disappearing after the battles Yeah, was pretty much just slowly walking past Just realised I didn't talk to him after the battle but will fix that in ep 3, could also have one last look in the forest to see if I can find a Pikachu too.

I really don't get how Team Rocket are "stealing" fossils from Mt. Moon. Like... if they find them, aren't they entitled to them?? Or is it a National Park kinda thing?? Old mate has those two you get to choose from when you're there, so it can't be that... I'm callin' poor writing!! Gawd I hate NPCs who force you to go places. Particularly ones that show you to gyms. This case is slightly more tolerable than the one in Petalburg City. Because you actually CAN challenge this gym (and have to to get him to LEAVE YOU ALONE). Nice Clemont quote Thank you for pointing out he was NOT looking at the bones of dragons, I was thinking the same. Brock re. Flash - "... It won't come up for some time. Also the HM is in a really backward location. Good luck!" (Playing through Gen 1, I admit I was one who stumbled their way through Rock Tunnel in the dark. I also didn't actually GET to the league on my first playthrough of Blue because I had no idea about the Strength HM!!! Left the Safari Warden to his own devices )

Old mate has those two you get to choose from when you're there, so it can't be that... I'm callin' poor writing!! Yeah, unless their stealing them from others who found them first it seems like they'd be fair game, think they're just trying to give early hints of the upcoming bad guys but they could have done that by saying stealing pokemon instead. Yeah, I can see the reason they had the route 3 roadblock NPC take you to the Gym as that's something you have to do to progress but the one for the museum is pretty unnecessary as you can completely skip the museum without any effect on the game. Thanks, currently watching XY at the moment, the science museum seemed like something he'd approve of Yeah, though forgot to mention the worst culprit for dragons that are not dragons *cough, Lance* but will bring that up later in the game Yeah, it's pretty easy to miss going back to Route 2 via Diglett's Cave, I've reached the entrance of Rock Tunnel a few times before realising I have to go back. I made it through without Flash a few times too back in gen 1 but I was using the ability to adjust the game's palette when played on the Gameboy Color/Gameboy Advance to make the walls more visible.

Part 4 of Leaf Green - Exploring Route 3!
Apologies for the change in video quality in this part, been having some technical difficulties with the capture device.

"I was looking in a different direction. Still am."
"Get with it"?? Another phrase that doesn't seem to fit!!
Automatic PC box changing - a game-changing update by Lanette.
I love how accusatory the NPCs are on Route 3. Actually there are a lot of NPCs in Kanto like that.
Ah, but what is "melting red hot" to you?? I'll gladly trade summers with you!! (I assume you knew I'd say something to that effect )
Shellshore - "I could win in my sleep. And I did!"
... Really bothers me that you can't actually come FROM Cerulean through Mt. Moon until you have Surf. That NPC that says "tunnel from Cerulean" has always annoyed me a little for this reason
"It's a newspaper." "It's a clipboard."
Elated by mad woman's addition!!

Another phrase that doesn't seem to fit!! Yeah, Kanto has some weird dialogue. Definitely one of my favourite updates that came with Ruby and Sapphire, was always awful being caught out with the box being full in past gens Probably high 20's - 30C, though it rarely reaches those temperatures here, above 30 is starting to get a bit too warm though. The temperature ranges I'm not too fond of is anything 5'C or below which is most of the winter here. I can't remember if there was a theory about that NPC that in an earlier version of Red/Blue you could backtrack from Cerulean but when they changed the route layout they forgot to change the NPC dialogue. I think it looked like a clipboard in gen 1 too but they could have made it look more like a newspaper in the remake Yeah, was pleased I was able to catch her on-screen in the end too

Part 5 of Leaf Green - Special Zubat Edition!
Was still having some problems with the capture device so tried it with some different hardware as I also have a Japanese Gamecube and Gameboy player, it seems the video input isn't the problem though and think it may hopefully be a faulty USB cable which has now been replaced. It took several attempts to capture parts 3 and 5 because the capture device kept losing connection with the computer.

"Suspicious men are in the cave. What about you?" is one of the funniest NPC quotes. I'm glad they didn't change it in Gen 3! I love the name Maud for Geodude! Paras and Parasect make me sad. Lass Miriam - "So much ROOM to run around!" "Double Kick's a good move." It sure is. It's a shame mad woman can't have STAB for it. "We're pulling a big job" ... Are you though? That's quite a claim re. Joanne! I like Mt. Moon Square too. They also sell the mail there that has the Pokémon you give the mail to on it. "It could be bad news" ... Could.It does seem very out of character for a Rocket to mention Pokémon were living there before humans. Do you agree that Team Rocket are boring?? "These fossils that are blocking the path... and I'm keeping my distance from... yeah, they're mine."
