    8:35 Eevee was available in the wild in the Trophy Garden in Diamond & Pearl if the mansion owner lies and the curator makes it appear in the wild until midnight.

    I just want to say I didn’t know anyone else named the rival ??? until I heard you mention it in a previous video. I remember going to school and feeling so dumb once I found out everyone else gave him a real name. It’s nice to know after all these years I wasn’t the only one.

    I love this new type of video, it reminds me how as a kid and nowadays I still play and get invested in the world, making every play through unique for me. I feel like this solidified a bit as in why scarlet and violet took me a while to get into, but those games just lack the amount of immersion in the game like old games used to do, just because of the open world aspect of it, here’s hoping legends z-a captures this immersion again. And great video as always, looking forward to the next one!

    2:52 I don't know why this hit me just now, but upon reflection, if I was in the Pokémon world I can almost guarantee I would be like Youngster Joey with my Roggenrola. I mean I'm bad enough now, and it's not even real 💀
    8:05 That animation is so cute tho
    8:36 To my knowledge, Eevee is gifts in Gen 1, 2, and 4, and is unavailable naturally in 3. It is first catchable normally in the BW2 Castelia Park, behind the sewers, but you CAN I believe catch it in Platinum after you get the National Dex, I think in the Trophy Garden. But with nothing gimmicky like that, Castelia Park is the first place.
    Craig in his Let's Player era! This was a cute video, it was nice seeing the highlight reel of an in-game playthrough you've done. Would absolutely be interested in seeing this for Yellow at the least

    Crystal was near perfect as they improved on everything from Gen 1 and made an even better version of Gold and Silver.

    Choosing between playing the VC rerelease of Cristal for the Celebi event or HGSS is such a hard decision whenever I want to play Johto lol.
    Also I see you have changed the eyes on your character. NGL this could just be me and maybe you should get more community consensus, but the new eyes kind of look creepy lmao. It just doesn't fit with the previous avatar's art style, and your old eyes, while simpler, were more unique---especially with the expressions!

    I honestly can't stand the old gameboy Pokemon games - any of them. I played them on release too. Nostalgia does not have any hold over me. I just think the UI, the pacing, the bugs, the repetitive spawns, the random battles, the terrible quality of life, the bad sound chip, the awful sprites and 8-bit design quality - all of it gets in the way of my enjoyment way too much to consider these anywhere near the top Pokemon games.
