    I collected all 151 pokemon legally on the original Pokemon red

    If you’re American, then I’m calling bullshit, unless you were living in Japan at the time. Mew was not catchable in the original red and blue, and the only way to get it legitimately was to attend certain Japan-only Nintendo events, where a Nintendo official added it to your cartridge.

    Here in the states, the only ways to get Mew at the time were GameSharks or trade, but unless you traded with someone who could get to Japan and was willing to give up their event exclusive Mew, it was probably just from somebody else he used a GameShark.

      Damn it you’re right. Now I remember how I got Mew. I abused the missingno hack.

      I resign from my talk.

        I say recognising and acknowledging that you’re wrong qualifies you even more

          I ran hours ago and now I’m tweeting on social media about how I’m a victim to this injustice

        There’s no wrong way to play a game. Whether the devs intended for it or not, you played the game as it shipped. Feel proud.
