Why does HG sell so much more poorly?

[ZoraJolteon]

Because the character on the box didn't get a movie devoted to it?

[Lt. Steel]

Also Lugia looks badass and reminds people of Mewtwo.

Ho-oh only reminds me of Moltres....which was a craptacular legendary...

[Jerichi]

With the express exception of LeafGreen, I have a habit of buying all Red equivalents, so I went for Gold.

I guess I am the exception.

Why does HG sell so much more poorly?

Hairy Back Gold degenerates take 50% stealth rock damage just walking into the store.

[Muyotwo]

Displaced hostility towards Ma-ti, the least appreciated Planeteer.

I told you Pokemon would outsell FFXIII, but damn it, when it came to GoW3 I lost that bet. Even if you were to combine the sales of HG and SS I would still have lost, just by a little.

Displaced hostility towards Ma-ti, the least appreciated Planeteer.

You have to admit that heart was the lamest power out of all of them.

[HumanHater]

Easily made up for by the fact he got a monkey.
