Mastered, a very good and solid game, I always wanted to finish it and fight against Red, and the truth is, it did not disappoint at all. The achievements of looking for all the hidden items was easy thanks to a guide, the one of finding all the items was fun, the one of defeating all the trainers was VERY stressful at the end, but very entertaining 80% of the way, and the search for the NPCs that give you items... uff, complicated for some reason. Searching for Raikou, Entei and Suicune was a huge headache, completing the pokedex was fun, except for Umbreon, Blissey and Porygon. The set itself is very good, it makes you 100% complete the game and feel happy that you played it.

Such a great game. Really enjoyed mastering this one. No doubt I’ll be going through Silver and Crystal in the near future. Gen 2 really was a special generation for Pokémon.

If anyone is interested, I made checklists for several achievements, including Johto trainers, Kanto trainers, gifts, items, hidden items, and Pokedex:

One more for the collection, had to do a second run because I forgot to save and reload at Azalea gym, my team would level up above level cap, when I realized it was too late, that checklist made by @tomojin was really helpfull to keep track with the trainers (just saw it after I finished the first run). Pokemon Silver is the next one.

I've only played 2nd Gen once, so that 100% item and trainer thing is gonna take awhile xD

Mastered! First game in the series where I don't need to trade or glitch to get a Ghost type early on, so I had quite a bit of fun with my gengar setup. Also helped me set up a team of level 5 Misdreavus to start my Crystal run!

I normally steer clear of Pokemon sets because I’ve had some very bad experiences with “get all items/battle all trainers” achievements. But tomojin’s checklist was extremely helpful and made the process much less frustrating. I wish people made checklists like that for every Pokemon game!

Sixth mastered. Man, this was quite a bit more of a drag than Pokemon Red. The main playthrough was pretty great, and catching most Pokemon was fine, but the legendary dogs, and grinding some of the happiness evolutions got tedious. Shout out to the guy who made that awesome google document to track items and battles!

Shouldn't the gym leader level caps be marked as missable?
