You get the Earth Badge from the Gym leader of Viridian City (Nrth of Pallet town) The Gym is locked until you have got all the other badges and beaten Giovanni at Mt. Moon, Celadon City and Saffron City. He retreats to his Gym and is waiting for you to battle him.

The Pokémon he has are:
Y:Dugtrio lv 50 R/B:Rhyhorn lv45
Y:Persian lv 53 R/B:Dugtrio lv 42
y:Nidoqueen lv53 R/B:Nidoqueen lv44
y:Nidoking lv55 R/B:Nidoking lv45
y:Rhydon lv55 R/B:Rhydon lv 50

Use Water and Grass type pokémon against him and you should easily win. Once you have got this badge, go west of Viridian and work your way through indigo plateaux to the elite four. Make sure you have a mixed type squad with you!

Ask any questions about pokémon and I'll answer them. I have completed Yellow and Blue versions with all 151 pokémon. I have also completed rnd 2 mode on stadium so don't hesitate to ask.

Any questions'll do. whether they are for the GB games, n64 games, TV series or movie etc I'll answer them. I'll even try out cheats that you are not sure about. Come on I'm waiting!

What another bogus cheat. You are copying Fogmaster with the supposedly new #999 Electrachu. It doesn't work and never will!

It's people like you who give cheaters a bad name.

If you want a charizard easily, start with Charmander, get a cheat cart or trade with a mate!!!

It's the same with football isn't it. Look at the Euro cup 2000 and world cup 98. So many football goodies sold over these periods. It was annoying wasn't it!

What do you mean Pokémon Gold & Silver have only 5 or 6 new Pokémon. The red and blue and yellow versions had 150, Gold and silver have 250!

Yellow has many different feaqtures that red & blue dont have. Look at some of my older messages in the Yellow forum.

I was once really into Pokémon. I liked it before most other people in England had ever heard of it. I brought my friends into it, and there was about six people in our school that liked it. I went to America and bought Pokémon Yellow (another waste of money).

Then I went off Pokémon for a while. Then it suddenly got really popular. Then the game that I had heard about around 2-3 years ago finally was coming out:

POKÉMON STADIUM

My birthday had been about a month before it came out. I heard Pokémon Stadium was coming out so I had to save my birthday money (a hard thing for me to do). Then it came out and I got my Mum to get it for me the day it came out while I was at school. I was excited when I got it. I went upstairs and played it.

I was screwed.

Here is a list of the things that bothered me the most about the game:

1, It didn't have the features there were in the game boy battles: Potions. Changing your Pokémon after defeating your opponent. This caused the biggest problem: If you used Rage as your first move, or used metronome and used Rage, you were screwed. Since you couldn't change your Pokémon, you would continue to use the Rage attack 'till you killed all of your opponent's Pokémon, or until you died. ANNOYING!

2, The computer could ALWAYS paralyse, hypnotise, or poison your Pokémon. Here is something annoying: I had Pokémon Yellow, so when you play Gary, his best Pokémon is an Eevee evolvation. His Eevee was a Flareon. My Mewtwo (lv.100) attacked first. OH, HE MISSED. Then his Flareon attacked. What, body slam, oh, now I'm paralysed. Ah not to worry, I'll get out of it. Did I? No. When you're paralysed, your opponent goes first. Flareon used Fire Spin. That means you can't attack for 2 - 5 goes. So he had me trapped, and when his Fire Spin finishes, he attacked again: Fire Spin. Okay, now I'm a little annoyed. That Fire Spin finished and then he used another move: Fire Spin. ALRIGHT, NOW I'M ********* ANGRY! Every so and often, his fire spin would miss. But when he missed, I was fully paralysed.

3, Types are better efective against others. (eg, water beats fire, fire beats grass, and grass beats water) I was playing a fire Pokémon, so I used a water pokémon. I used a strong water move ('scuse my memory, i can't remember what it was). I expected a strong knock out, but instead it didn't even say Super Effective! And he took it normally!

4, One move can kill your opponent. Now that was just annoying as I may want to complete the game, but I do want a challange, or what's the point of playing? Imagine playing snakes and ladders with the snaked turned into ladders. Rubbish.

5, Some of the moves don't go how they should. There is a move that a Tentacool can do called Wrap. Tentacool is a jellyfish, and Wrap is where it wraps it's tentacules around the opponent. So you do it, and what happens? It shoots this blue string out of it's mouth around the opponent. The move is supposed to last for a long time, as if saying they are trapped. In this game, they stop doing it and start doing it again in the next move. Just doesn't seem right. I remember a move where a Pokémon punched the other (pound?). What happened was it just punched the thin air, and the camera changed scenes and the opponent fell over. That is because they don't touch each other because they all fall differently. When you hit some Pokémon with the annoying Fire Spin move, they fall back out of the falmes, and then they jumop back in!?! When you finally kill your opponent, they start to fall and then they quickly change and die differently. The graphics are good, but the moves weren't set out very well.

6, Finally, the most annoying feature: I'm pretty sure that the annoying commentary is done by the worst character in Pokémon: TRACIE.

My tip is not to waste your money on Pokémon Stadium, as the only good feature on it is the mini-games, and they can get boring after a while, and it is just like playing your Game Boy. A better idea, if you're a Pokémon fan, is just to spend around Ł30 Pounds on the regular old Game Boy, and spend Ł20 buying Pokémon Red or Blue, as Yellow is a lot more expensive for a tiny little change.

1999, I bought South Park 64 the day it came out with my birthday money. What a dissapointment. I'm never buying a new release with my birthday money again!!!
