>>50442420>Tfw the rest of the world never got the true proto-mmo experience as the developers intendedOriginally included the celebi event, multiple odd egg tickets, the ability to trade, battle and participate in tournaments online. Also had the ability to download replay data from tournaments, watch them via stadium 2 and even play against the ai using those teams. Battle tower originally was designed to be used around this feature and players would compete to create the ultimate gauntlet with the fastest clear times. Considering this is prior to gen 4, it still amazes me how far they could push the hardware to its limits
