Most of my stories are stupid kid shit, but maybe you guys will find them amusing
>As a kid I always pictured Professor Oak's overworld sprite as a little kid squatting like a frog, despite knowing full well he was an old man in a lab coat
>I used to think that none of the Pokemon that you could catch after leaving Mt. Moon could learn cut, and that you'd be soft locked if you didn't catch one before then. Looking back on it, it's kinda weird that the Oddish line and Farfetch'd were your only options in Red at that point
>I also thought Abra was almost impossible to catch, since I never thought to just throw a ball on the first turn. I thought the only way to get one was to put it to sleep or paralyze it so it couldn't teleport
>I used to think there was a TM for every move and spent a long time trying to find one for Agility because of one episode of the anime where Ash's Pikachu beat Lt. Surge's Raichu using it, and they made a big deal about how Pikachu couldn't learn it after evolving
>I used to think elemental stones would make any Pokemon of the matching type evolve, and you could use them to bypass level requirements for evolution
> Probably the stupidest thing I did was waste my Master Ball on a Staryu. It was my first time hooking one while fishing and I thought it was super rare. The few other balls I had either failed to catch or missed entirely, and with only the Master Ball left I just went for it. The dumbest thing is I never even took that Staryu out of the PC after catching it since I only ever used my starter
>When trying to catch Articuno, I ran away when I ran out of balls because I thought it would stay as long as I didn't KO it
>I started a new game just before the champion rival battle because I thought I was soft locked. My team was too weak to beat him, and I saved after beating each Elite Four member. For some reason I never thought to just white out and try again.
I was a dumb kid.
