Pokémon: How the love ball from gene 2 to the queer super weapon was

Oh yes, love is just where it falls - this does not prove Pokémon. Read right, because even if the series is certainly not known for their great love stories, there are some mechanics that at least have to do with affection. And this also includes a pokéball of gold and silver, which was accidentally becoming the queerest mechanics in the whole row.

• Later generations without queer mechanics

The 'homoball' from Pokémon Gen 2

The speech is from the SIMPABALL of the second generation, which is called Japanese original "Love-Love Ball". He should actually be in gold, silver and crystal that those Pokémon would be easier to catch, which had the same kind but another sex as their own Pokémon.

However, through a development error of this effect is exactly the other way around: instead of attracting the other sex Pokémon, the ball increases the chance to catch Pokémon of the same sex at eight times. Even gender-free Pokémon, on which the ball should not have no effect, were affected in the second generation and are the charm of their opposite. Well, who we are also to stand in the way.

Incidentally, this is not the only unusual mechanics that existed in the second generation of Pokémon. A kind of 'incest clause' should prevent in gold & silver from preventing specific Pokémon:

Later generations without queer mechanics

Although the queer simpaball is clearly a mistake - after all, the effect in later generations was reversed and corresponds to the description - but it brings us at least to smile that Pokémon games once had contents, even if it was not intended. It would be all the more beautiful, of course, if that is regularly part of the series in the future.

Pokémon Karmesin & Purple could make a beginning, even if we do not know if the SIMPABALL returns here at all. In general, not many contents are known for the ninth generation, even if there are already hints.

So the old fishing mechanics could return from Arceus, Poké-Center could be integrated organic into the world and the game could get the largest pokédex enlargement for years. Which information about release, gameplay and the game world we already know, we have summarized you in the hub.
