Is it another Pokemon thing? YES IT IS!

[Mockingjay]

I think there was a cool trainer in gold/silver with my name just before the elite 4 - which is great cause I tend to use a balance of types and well... I am cool of course

Did they have names in Pokemon Gold/Silver?

Genuinely interested. can't remember.

 

[black lincon]

no but if anyone finds a trainer with the name Collin I'd be interested to see what he had.

Note: I believe there was a trainer named Colin, that's not my name, note the spelling difference. And yes, it does make a difference.

And I pity you if you're a bug catcher, I really do.

Oh, thanks. I remember seeing a Bug Trainer James in one of them and thinking, "ah, crap."

I tend to train random Pokemon rather than set types, but even I must balk at being a Bug Trainer.

In fact, I can't remember whether it was a Bug Trainer or a Bug Maniac...grumble grumble.

Well my name is Jesse so I guess I share a name with team rocket's Jessie, *sigh* that certainly added fuel to the "Jesse is a girl's name" argument when I was a kid.

Yep, 'twas a revolution, no longer were you dealing with hordes of unamed "youngsters".

 

[Internet Kraken]

To my knowledge there is no squid Pokemon.

As for my real name, I don't think anyone in the games had it. However, I believe some minor character in TV show did.....ugh.

 

[Aqualung]

I was Beauty Olivia and she had a Corsola; one of my favourites, and I love water Pokemon. >_> I think this was in Crystal.

 

[iron codpiece]

after a google search there is a guy who is missing his teeth in the first game who hangs out in a cave. That's eerily like myself.

 

[Sarcastic Chimp]

never. david is not a Japanese name

There was a Dave (my name) in there somewhere though. Does that count?

Yeah, they did. Anyway, remember the Bike Path in gold? I think that one of the rider's names was Josh, my name.

Well my name is Jesse so I guess I share a name with team rocket's Jessie, *sigh* that certainly added fuel to the "Jesse is a girl's name" argument when I was a kid.

My brother's name is Jesse, he had to go through a lot of that too.

I have your pity then? Thanks.


I was always a Bug Trainer, on every game after Ruby/Sapphire.

 

[Darth Revan 192]

I was whatever the dragon guys were called. I would spend hours trying to find bagon and the even more leveling it up to its third state. Im looking back now at those times in shame...

 

[Darth Revan 192]

I always found bugs the weakest getting owned by fire, rock, flying, and fighting. I'm pretty sure they were only good against grass too.

 

[Cortheya]

I have not but I would probably employ psychic and ghost pokemon because according to the sho they're supposed to be damn near unstoppable

Yeah, since that was when they introduced the phone system where Trainer would call you for a rematch or if pokemon appeared somewhere.

 

[Usagi_dono]

Pretty sure I was a fisherman with 6 magicarp...

 

[Zhalath]

I was a runner, with a Dodrio. And I couldn't hold still...

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I've never seen a Frank or Francis, iirc. But any male trainer with a Flareon is just like me.
And Flint now uses a Flareon, which I like, but he also uses something I will never use, an Infernape.

 

[AbsoluteVirtue18]

I remember fighting a Cooltrainer that had the exact same party as me. Exactly the same.
