*~~//SPOILER ALERT\\~~*
The following blog post will expose plot segments for the game Pokemon Crystal Version. Don't want, don't read. You've been warned.
Yup, I've beaten Pokemon Crystal, fair and square.
Heeeeere's my Hall of Fame Team:
Heeeeere's my Hall of Fame Team:
Venus (Victreebell) ♂ - L46
Buzz (Magneton) - L47
Cora (Crobat) ♀ - L48
Clipper (Feraligatr) ♂ - L48
Aurora (Arcanine) ♀ - L50
Trunks (Donphan) ♀ - L52
I'll be honest, I was kinda surprised I was able to beat Lance with my team in such a current state. Regardless, Champion title was handed over, but the game wasn't over. Oh no, sir, there is more to be had.
Though I didn't actually play through this next part, for the sake of my personally intended schedule, there is more to do after the credits, per say. After you beat the Elite 4 and become the Johto Champion, you are given a ticket to go for a little ride on a cruise ship. Of course you have trainers to beat and whatnot, but after the ride, your character finds his or herself in...Kanto! Though graphics are altered a bit, it looks pretty much the same as it did in the first generation. Now you're able to travel Kanto and take on its gyms, allowing you access to having 16 gym badges by the end of it all. When I was old enough to get my thoughts about me long enough to actually get to Kanto in the game, this greatly excited me. Especially one extra aspect.
As you have plowed through the Pokemon League, you are also given access to a place called Mt. Silver.
Mt. Silver, I must confess, is a bitch to climb, but the climb is actually not the best of it. Once you climb to the top of Mt. Silver, you are led onto an icy cliff. After walking the thin platform of this cliff, you see someone - someone that if you speak to, you are plunged into the most difficult battle yet. No words are spoken between you or your opponent. You fight this guy:

Do you recognize him? You should. This is Red, your character in Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow.
I must confess, in all the years that I've played Pokemon, I have yet to beat Red in Mt. Silver. It makes me very ashamed, though I still plan to accomplish it, one of these days.
Any others who have not yet experienced the power that is Red in the second generation beware. His team is fierce and HIGH in level. He is not an easy opponent to defeat.
Well, now that Crystal is done, I'm on to Pokemon Emerald. I think I'll make this generation a bit more interesting, though.
I'm going to attempt to play both Pokemon Emerald and Pokemon FireRed, for reasons that you'll soon find out. One of these days I'll remember that I'm just a college student and actually get a life. Until then, however, see you next time! Thanks for reading!
