Nostalgia pangs hitting , is one last hurrah conceivable?

Really happy to see that a couple of us old regulars haven't forgotten about this please. I've checked in over the years when I got reminders of our old home, had to sift through some muck but it's not hard to find some of our old constructive threads, it's a trip man. Also i love reliving some of those legendary threads, this place sure stirred the pot hah. I found you guys when I was 14 in 2006, crazy that a decade has passed. Looking at my post history is wild, I was a totally different person, I'm sure we all were. TTA never die.

Hope you guys come by soon. Still play pokemon? I kinda got lost in the shuffle after DP, played through HG and all the black and whites but only having fun with nuzlockeS never going the competitive route. Don't really care to at this point, too much work to put in and so much to learn. Shit I want to play RBY again but I barely remember the fundamentals. Is there even a netbattle equivalent these days to play RBY on? Or is the metagame taking place on 3ds'?

Yeah man it's been such a long time. Most of us were practically kids at the time. I do the same thing. Check out the ol' generals and tourney threads. Sometimes it doesn't seem like a lot but then I remember so much of our time was spent on Netbattle with real time chat.

I'm still playing Pokemon; albeit not as competitively as I once did. More like, loose competitive. I still know a trick or two but I'm nowhere near as good as I was at RBY. I mostly play the games casually as they come out and play a few "real," games on Showdown or with friends, but nothing serious. I still find the fun in trying to win a match but I definitely don't have the drive like I used to; without a group of real friends to play and grow with it's just not as fun.

The new Netbattle as far as I know is Showdown, which is actually browser based and pretty easy to work with. I'm pretty positive they have a RBY mode that you can use but if there's a better Sim GGFan will know about it. I'm trying to put together a nice little throwback tournament and it's good to see we got 1 guy from the old crew I can count on. It might take awhile to put together but I'm pretty adamant on making it happen.

Now get your ass over to the Throwback Tournament 1 thread so I can officially sign you up.

Pokemon Online is the preferred RBY simulator of choice: pokemon-online.eu/

As a community it's the unremarkable SmogonJr of today (pretty much the same thing as PokeRealm if you guys remember that joke), but the simulator is good.

Hey GGFan! Pokemon Showdown recently released RBY Random Battles. It's a bit unbalanced at the moment (OUs need a level nerf), but I really would like to know what you think of it. So far I'm really liking it. It's cool, and definitely better than constantly having a Chansey face off.
