    That brings me so many memories… “WOW! HE FOLLOWS YOU! JUST LIKE ASH’S PIKACHU! PIKA PIKA!”

    Professor Oak Challenge

    This list is missing a lot of mons! Where’s Pikablu? MewThree? Yoshi? Or even Mew, there’s one under the truck! Just joking.

      Only about a week! There’s a few spots where it’s a grind but you can use fast-forward, thankfully.

        I see. How much is that in hours played? It’s a bit difficult to judge without knowing how much spare time you have.

          My save file says 72 hours but that’s with 6x fast-forward speed so ~12 hrs real time.

            Cool! I’m doing the challenge now as well, it’s fun so far. Seems like it might be a bit on the grindy side, but that’s alright.

            EDIT: Not loving the Pidgeot/Primeape combo before Brock, grinding in Viridian isn’t super fun. May have to reconsider

              Yeah haha, that’s when it first starts to drag. Fast forward and turbo A button grinding are your friend. I did it while listening to podcasts, I find that sort of thing relaxing but it’s definitely not for everyone.

                Funnily enough, I did the same thing. Podcasts and grind. Closing in on the last levels of Pidgeotto now, let’s see what happens after Brock.
