Platinum was my first game, and I named my Chimchar Max after their protagonist of the anime dinosaur king. I didn’t train any other Pokémon and didn’t understand the mechanics well so I hard to brute force the gym leaders like crazy, and Fantina and wake were both nightmare mode. I did hatch the Riolu and it was my secondary mon alongside starsptor when I figured out how useful it was. Took me months to get through the distortion world and I had no balls so I killed Giratina, because I used my master ball on a Munchlax. Ended up catching it down the line when I cleared the game, but I must’ve died like 30 times to the elite 4 and 100 to Cynthia back then.
My best play through was my 2nd one where I picked turtwig and actually completed the regional dex. I explored the shit out of the game and was crazy excited when I could catch stuff like dratini, bagon, beldum, ditto, and the birds. A hacker kid that lived by me have me a lvl 100 Latias as well. Good times. Thank you for reading my blogpost.
