So, I think for this week's #VGMWednesday I am contractually obligated to talk about something from Gen 2 #Pokemon
With this in mind, how could I possibly pick just one track from this generation of Pokemon?! I certainly couldn't cop out a pick a track from the Kanto region, could I?
Going through the OST was a bit of a weird experience because as I was going through the battle music, I came to the conclusion I didn't actually like it that much. Perhaps it is more the Gameboy's sound capabilities doing the tracks a disservice.
Therefore, the thought process was, what track just resonated with me the most, and made me feel I was in Johto.
I settled on the Azalea town and Blackthorn city theme. I can't put my finger on it, but this just hit my nostalgia just right, and I love it so much.
This track comes across quite quaint and peaceful, which I think captures Johto as a region quite nicely.
helioptile and heliolisk pixel art. helioptile is some sort of banana. he was a funny one to get the body right but i think it ended up ok. with heliolisk i wanted to have it flaring its neck out. its pose is from the tcgpocket genetic apex card. the shiny ended up looking really cool

Guess it's one of those Friday nights where I'm going back to my childhood with this one. #Pokemon #PokemonGold #PokemonSilver #PokemonCrystal #Nintendo #GameFreak #Gameboy #GameboyColor

Well I've now defeated Lance, but I do intend to go through Kanto at some point. I'm not sure if it'll be immediately, I kind of want to take a break from trying to get through an RPG (even one as familiar and documented as Pokemon) in a language I cannot read, let alone one that is undocumented due it being an unofficial translation.
At least as far as I've seen, everything has been normal apart from being able to teach Sudowoodo Fly which is amazing. It's not been used for battling all too much but the flying tree has been my mascot for this playthrough.
That's enough Pokemon monster emerald 2008 for the time being.

The Festival Fly (read: Sacred Ash, I think) is kind of... glitchy.

I know it's just one, two, and three in Chinese, but it just looks funny that it's just a bunch of horizontal lines in the elevator menu.

Someone please explain why the hell Sudowoodo can learn Fly in this translation hack but Farfetch'd can't?? I guess I'm flying around on the back of a tree now.
EDIT: To clarify an error I made, turns out Farfetch'd did learn Fly but somehow I didn't notice. This doesn't change the fact that Sudowoodo somehow got the ability to fly in the bootleg.

So the hack I'm playing seems to be limited to two characters per Pokemon name due to screen space which certainly makes everything a challenge.
That being said, I'd like to bring your attention to two of my favorite Pokemon, Espeon and Umbreon and their bootleg names.
Espeon is 天天 which translates to "everyday", but I'm assuming it's meant to play off of 白天 which is "daytime".
However Umbreon appears to be 雷鸟 which translates to "thunder bird". I'm not sure what this is supposed to mean, it doesn't sound like the English or Japanese names. It's clearly not a bird (and if you know the games it's a Dark type). Is this supposed to be a direct reference to a Thunderbird? I have no clue.

The Quick Claw apparently translates as 灼灼灼, which according to Google Translate means "Burning". Maybe it's a text representation of flame car decals.

I guess routes can use the big numbers though.
