Got all 16 Badges and beat the final trainer in Mt. Silver in 39:03. I saw 220 Pokemon and added 138 to my Pokedex. Got Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Luiga, and Ho-oh. Earned a final money total of $350,207.
Here's a classic that should be in most collector's libraries alongside the other versions from the second generation of Pokemon games, Gold and Silver. Like the previous three versions, underneath its cute exterior lays a strategic challenge unlike any other, one that is certainly worth taking on regardless of how old you are.
And the AI has been tweaked a bit to make the game a little more harder, meaning some strategies that may have worked before won't work now. Two new Pokemon types, about 200 new techniques and 100 new Pokemon prove that you can teach an old dog new tricks.
But that's not all folks. There were two major things about the Crystal version that weren't in Gold and Silver: you could make multiple specialty PokeBalls at a person's house in Azalea (sic) Town, and a Battle Tower was added in. The AI of the trainers in the Battle Tower is significantly higher than the average field trainer, so strategize well.
I haven't played this game in some time, but I believe that my Pokedex is in the range of 175-200 species.
Almost all PC boxes filled with level 100 tournament-oriented-builded Pokémon (Crossbreeded moves, hand-picked efforts...), full PokéDex without Gameshark
