Cycling around either Rustboro City or Goldenrod. It's merged in my mind - I saw the train lines and Goldenrod's layout, but with Rustboro's tileset, including the fences everywhere. I would've been like 3 or 4 at the time and had access to my brother's stuff from R/B to R/S, so it makes sense I don't remember what's what.
I also remember constantly resetting over his Gold and playing the game up to Azalea with a Cyndaquil, where Silver's team would stonewall me.
Only thing remaining from that time is the copy of Emerald he eventually got - he moved out with the rest of it and it got stolen because he lived in shitty neighbourhoods with shitty people. It's nice to have a memory of those times, as faint as they are now, considering it's been nearly 20 years... fug ;_;
