Line #40 Funny/PokemonGoldAndSilver


1	!'''NOTICE: No spoiler tags are allowed on Moments subpages, [[Administrivia/SpoilersOff per wiki policy]]. Read ahead with caution! Administrivia/YouHaveBeenWarned.'''
2	----
3	* Several of the phone calls you can get in ''HG/SS'', but especially the ones from Gym Leaders. This includes Chuck deciding to take his wife to [[BusmansHoliday Tohjo Falls]], Falkner and Janine's [[MyDadCanBeatUpYourDad war]], Clair thinking her outfit is the latest fashion, and Whitney rambling on about nothing.
4	* In particular, one of Chuck's phone calls has him talking about how his waterfall-generator has been malfunctioning, only to be cut off by it breaking and gushing water everywhere.
5	* [[TheRival Blue's]] phone calls can only seem to fuel the [[YaoiFangirl fangirls]] even more so... when he calls your character and says how you remind him a little bit of [[TheHero Red]]. But only just a bit.
6	* This piece of LampshadeHanging... the man before the Elite Four states that he would offer to teleport you back to New Bark Town, but no one takes him up on his offer because everyone wanting to go there just flew there.[[note]]In the original Generation II games, you can't fly from Indigo Plateau to New Bark Town, making it necessary to have him teleport you there if you need to go back. Since flying was a more convenient option in the remakes, the option to have him teleport you back to New Bark Town is removed entirely.[[/note]] It doesn't help (or, for the player character, hurt) in the remakes that the Indigo Plateau and Victory Road are the only places in the entire game from where a person can fly to and from any city/town in either Johto or Kanto.
7	* From the original Generation II games (but not the Generation IV remakes)...we have this infamous line:
8	--> '''[[StalkerWithACrush Juggler Irwin]]''': [[AccidentalInnuendo "Behold my graceful BALL dexterity!"]]
9	* From the remakes, when Lance suggests a tag team battle between you, [[TheRival Silver]], himself, and his cousin Clair... for some reason, Silver ''really'' isn't too keen on the idea of Clair being on his team...or [[HoYay Ethan]]/Lyra being on a team with Lance. He immediately scoffs at Clair, insulting her wardrobe choice, then telling the hero character (regardless of gender), that you are on his team. We all know [[NoHuggingNoKissing what kind of game Pokémon is]], but many people couldn't help but find Silver acting like a jealous {{tsundere}}. It came off as rather hilarious.
10	* Despite gender, the scene where Silver strips your character of their Team Rocket disguise...mostly because of the [[RuleThirtyFour dozens and dozens]] of fanarts that have spawned from this one scene!
11	* Just the simple fact that by wearing their uniform, Team Rocket members [[PaperThinDisguise are willing to believe]] a preteen kid is part of their criminal group.
12	* When you're battling Silver in the Radio Tower, he will say the following below when he's down to his last Pokemon. If you've seen ''Film/TheDarkKnight'', then this comment will cause you to either snicker, giggle, snort, or a combination of all the above.
13	--> '''Silver''': Hey...why so serious?
14	** It's even funnier when his last Pokémon is his [[SlasherSmile Haunter]].
15	* The foreign Team Rocket member in Cerulean City served little purpose other than to be a walking SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment\|s}}. Even though there are several Team Rocket grunts that match his level of ditziness, we dare you to find one with [[WhatTheHellIsThatAccent an accent that adorable.]]
16	-->'''Rocket Grunt:''' Oops! I so sorry! You not hurt, okay?
17	* When you're disguised as a TR member during the Radio Tower Raid, and you talk to the Department Store Manager, he spurts out the following line [[note]]The other shoppers, as well as the Rocket grunts outside, will give you some pretty funny lines, too[[/note]]:
18	--> '''Department Store Manager''': What kind of business would a Team Rocket member have here? We aren't selling sanity here.
19	* Buena's line during the Radio Tower takeover:
20	--> '''Buena''': Huh? Today's password? HELP, of course!
21	* The guy at the Magnet Train Station
22	--> The train hasn't come in... I know! I'll carry the passengers on my back! That won't work.
23	* The Gym guide in the Cerulean Gym, whose trainers include women in skimpy bikinis, says this out of all things.
24	-->'''Gym guide:''' Yo! Legend in the making! Since Misty was away, I went out for some fun, too. [[LampshadedDoubleEntendre He-he-he.]]
25	* In HG/SS when you talk to your Pokémon while getting ready to battle, they will look to one side then move half a step then look to the other side and move half a step, then the words on the screen will say:
26	--> '''Guide Words:''' Why is it doing warm-up stretches?
27	* Your Pokemon react differently to different Kanto Gyms. Janine's has them hitting the invisible walls. Non-fire types appreciate getting a "shower" in Erika's gym.
28	* In ''HG/SS'', you can use your Pokédex to check the size and weight of a Pokémon compared to the player character. Weight is represented by a scale, holding the Pokémon and the player character in each of the cups. If the Pokémon is very heavy, the PC will bounce so high that [[PaintingTheMedium they momentarily appear in the upper screen of the DS.]] If you use a Steelix or a Snorlax, the heaviest Pokémon available in a normal playthrough, the PC is ''catapulted straight through the upper screen and never comes back down''.
29	* In ''[=HeartGold=] and [=SoulSilver=]'', on some occasions while your Pokémon is walking with you, it will hold items for the Fashion Case. There are a few points where if you try to take whatever it's holding, it will get angry at you because its item is apparently "too important to let go".
30	* Stuff relating to the Day Care Center on Route 34:
31	** Because the other player character, Lyra if you chose Ethan and vice versa, appears around Johto, we get this gem:
32	-->'''Ethan/Lyra:''' Grandma! Let me introduce my friend. This is [[HelloInsertNameHere [player name]!]]
33	-->'''Day Care Lady:''' Ah ha. So this is your... girl/boy...friend?
34	-->'''Ethan/Lyra:''' What? Grandma...! What are you talking about? [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend She/He just happens to live nearby...]]
35	** After you exchange phone numbers with Ethan/Lyra, this happens:
36	--->'''Ethan/Lyra:''' Grandma. Don't you say anything. [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend We are both Trainers, and we are supposed to exchange phone numbers. That's all.]]
37	** Heck, just the fact that [[CreatureBreedingMechanic the Day Care]] is on Route [[RuleThirtyFour 34]] is worth a chuckle.
38	* Youngster Joey and his Rattata. It's not any ordinary Rattata, it's in the [[OverlyNarrowSuperlative top percentage]] [[SmallNameBigEgo of Rattata.]]
39	** Which gets even funnier if you consider that you can, in theory, [[SelfImposedChallenge beat the entire game with just a Rattata]].
40	*** People used cheating devices to [[SeriousBusiness check if Joey is actually telling the truth]], looking up the Rattata's stats to see if it has perfect Individual Values. Sadly, it's all zeros like other trainers of Joey's difficulty level.
41	* There's a Pokefan on Kanto Route 13 who commands you to "bow down before his regal Pokemon". His team consists of a Nidoking and Slowking, both at ''much'' lower levels than anything else on the route and... '''a LEVEL 65 MAGIKARP!!!''' And it still has Splash. Getting an [=LPer=]'s reaction to it live is bound to be hilarious, see one such example in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPvjh2zaaVk&t=11m06s this video.]]
42	** This is actually a {{Pun}} that was {{Lost In Translation}}. In the Japanese versions, Nidoking has the same name, Slowking is Yadoking, and Magikarp is Koiking. They all have "king" in their names, hence regal.
43	*** Amusingly, the joke unintentionally turns into a {{Visual Pun}} instead because of Magikarp's crown-shaped dorsal fin.
44	** This is only the case in the remakes though. The original English versions of the game replaced the Magikarp with a Seaking of a level similar to the other two Pokémon, preserving the pun, but ruining the fun of seeing an extremely high-levelled, yet still as useless, Magikarp.
45	* As mentioned, the moment when your rival strips you out of your Team Rocket uniform. The PlayerCharacter, who usually acts like a HeroicMime and doesn't respond to the things around them at all, even turns around to face the wall in a desperate effort to keep their rival from blowing their cover.
46	* On route to the Safari Zone, non-Flying Types are scared of the cliff edge, and may [[SecurityCling get up close to you]] to avoid it. Non Fire-types will splash and play in the waves at any beach, while Fire Types will get grouchy and displeased.
47	** On a related note, all Flying-Types will "fly majestically through the air" in certain areas... even stuff like Gyarados that doesn't look like it ''can'' fly!
48	* If the player chooses Totodile as their starter, that means Silver, [[ElementalRockPaperScissors naturally]], goes for the grass-type Chikorita... which is a green plush dinosaur [[RealMenWearPink with pink petals]]. One can imagine [[TheSocialDarwinist Silver]]'s reaction when he discovered [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter what 'mon he stole]].
49	* An Easter egg found only in ''Pokémon Crystal'' involves the player character noticing graffiti on a wall in Celadon Mansion, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint only for the player character to add a mustache to the graffiti]]. [[https://youtu.be/DX-MnRXOwf4?t=30s Here.]]
50	* Lavender Tower being redone into a ''[[CrossesTheLineTwice radio tower]]''.
51	* There's a Pokemanic named Isaac in Goldenrod Tunnel who talks about how he just had his Pokemon's hair cut... and his only Pokemon is a Lickitung. Talk about a close shave!
52	* Going off the above, you can take Pokémon like Chikorita, Golem, and Onix, among others, to get haircuts. The haircut brothers must be ''incredibly'' skilled in order to give service to [[FridgeLogic certain species]].
53	* The remakes have a cameo from [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Maylene]] in the Celadon City restaurant, during an eating contest. While the other contestants have a full bowl in front of them, [[BigEater Maylene has six empty ones stacked on either side of her. And she isn't slowing down!]]
54	* On the outskirts of Blackthorn Town, there is a Black Belt NPC who, if you speak to him, says, "Aaaaoooo! Voices in my head!" He then clarifies that he's listening to his radio, but that doesn't really explain much.
55	* Lance's sense of humor. At a point during Team Rocket headquarters section, you run into Lance standing next to a Rocket grunt:
56	-->'''Lance:''' It takes two passwords to get into the boss's quarters. Those passwords are known only to a few Rockets. That Rocket there very graciously told me so. Let's go get the passwords.
57	** When you talk to the grunt, his dialogue makes it clear that Lance [[JackBauerInterrogationTechnique just beat the confession]] [[GoodIsNotNice out of him with his Dragonite.]]
58	** Lance is a gold mine of BlackComedy when it comes to his treatment of Team Rocket. Even before this scene, when you walk into the store that's serving as their front, you arrive just in time to see Dragonite nuke the shopkeeper with Hyper Beam. [[BlownAcrossTheRoom The attack embeds the grunt into the wall.]]
