Hardwired friendships were the best

Oh you had MONEY growing up, didn't you? Privileged little shit, I didn't have the cash to waste on a cable, I was lucky to get a game 10 years late.

Who the hell is gate keeping this? Stop it. It's gay.

They still can. Me and my mate started all the way back in Pokemon Red/Blue, and we still play and trade all the way up to ZA.

Didn't have a Game Boy, didn't have friends, can't relate.

Sending Pokémon to evolve. Damn good old days.

Anyone remember the “cloning glitch” on early Pokemon games while using link cable to trade?

Turns out it WASN'T about the graphics...

Oh the pain, oh the joy! I dragged my pc and 15" crt through the city for a weekends lan Good old days

Then next thing you do in the 2000

i was born in the 80's i used the link ONCE. it's not about having friends, but having a wealthy enough family that could afford that luxury. i had one by 14ish and i was happy. can't say all ppl got lucky around me.
