Keep 'em coming, these are interesting! Any Zelda ones?

In my Pokemon Blue game, I would sometimes see level 120 Starmies come up when trying to do the Missingno trick. I could catch them using a master ball, then I could use rare candies to get their level up to about 250 before it would reset back to 1. I could only use them in battle against my friends, not in the game or they would go back to level 1. Let's just say that no one could beat me.

That 'Zelda III' thing seems close enough to plausible, even if it's an american bootleg of a hongkong bootleg of a japanese bootleg of a beta version.

And those Mew and lvl 100+ bugs and glitches ruined pokemon for me. Everyone in my school used the exact same team: 6 Level 250(or whatever the maximum limit was) Mews. All 15 pokemon geeks at my school. Nothing else. It made fighting them tremendously boring on a number of levels.

The only thing Missingno messed up for me was the hall of fame. I think like the first 6 teams on the PC are fucked up, after that they're fine though. That's due to the fact I stopped doing the trick ater so long. No doubt if I were to go back and glitch it up again all my hall of fame teams would mess up. Still, not having those first 6 isn't good for nostalgia.

Thinking back i'm sure he was pictured as a Rhyhorn with 3 flying attacks (possibly wing attack) and water gun. I'm sure I got a level 80 Ditto after capturing a Missingno once.

There were two people in my school who refused to cheat in Pokemon, me and a friend of mine. We were the only people in the school with real hard-earned level 100's. I think we had about twenty each at the time, all of them legit. We were pretty badass The last time we battled (Like high school - years ago) I won, and held the title of Ultimate [High School Name] Pokemon Master Champion Of All Time until about three months ago when I foolishly put the title on the line in a game of Mario Kart.

T'was a sad day.

[Guest Zeokage]

A Pokemon title lost through Mario Kart? That doesn't make sense...

Reminds me of the time we had a hardcore title at school, my mate (the champ) lent back on my desk with his chair during maths, I pinned his shoulders down and made the count, I won the title and then got thrown out so he couldn't reclaim it.

[Guest Kou]

Yeah don't catch Missingno, it corrupts your game up something fierce.

[Riceman 4K]

Jumping over the pole in SMB.

Apparantly, it can be done.

[MalaCloudy Black]

Yeah, I swear my friend's done it before, you don't really achieve anything from doing it though do you?

[The Chief]

apparantley in WWF Warzone, if you completed "challenge mode" with stone cold, you could get "the rattlesnake" which was a super hyped up version of stone cold.

a year of playing challenge mode and i didnt find him. was this ever true?

[Skummy]

Yeah. I don't know how you unlocked him, but I'm sure he was in the game. He had snakes for arms, and reptillian skin.

[Vilge Duin]

Going by Gamefaqs you have to win the WWF Championship in challenge mode on the medium or hard difficulty setting with any user-created wrestler.

[Kaney]

Yeah. I don't know how you unlocked him, but I'm sure he was in the game. He had snakes for arms, and reptillian skin.

:blink:

That must be a different Rattlesnake from the one I ever had. It was just Austin in a pair of jeans, as far as I can recall.

[Hutch2004]

Good God, this thread makes me want to play San Andreas. If only I wasn't too lazy to unpack my PS2 and then complete the missions to the point where I can free roam again.

[Guest Zeokage]

I'm pretty sure I unlocked Rattlesnake. Wasn't he a larger version of Stone Cold in "casual gear"?

[EWRFan]

Yep, Stone Cold in casual gear with super stats. Man, I remember when War Zone was bad ass.....

[Guest Zeokage]

Out of the N64 WWF games (there were only 4, right?), Attitude is the only one I don't currently own, borrowed it from a friend once though. WarZone was definately bad ass.
