(title isn't final ofc)

this article would basically be a countdown/list of all the sidequests in the main series games that were either extremely tedious, extremely difficult, or seemed to be included in the game specifically to troll the players. The idea of the article would be to list them in order, and try to make the reader look back and think "wow, that *was* bullshit ._.".

I'm open to suggestions on what sidequests to include, just as long as they both fall under the tedious, difficult, or trolly categories, and aren't part of the main storyline. The Hallowed Tower sidequest and the entire cross generational sidequest involving the regis are guarenteed entries if this takes off.

The Shuckle side quest in Cianwood was pretty lame and pointless. The sick Miltank side quest was pretty bad too.

I must be missing tags but yes.

Can it include XD Lucky Egg quest, or at least honorable mention

That depends, would you count the gamecube games as main series or no? I'm pretty sure i remember what you're talking about (muted pokemon right?)

anyone else have suggestions?

yeah that dumb thing in XD.

I mean it is using the battle system, but wikipedia says spin-off. I'll just let you write your stuff this ought to be hilarious. If anything a spin-off article can be done later.

alrighty, still need to think of some good ideas for the other three though? (i'd be totally willing to do the XD thing tbh)

as i mentioned before would getting porygon at the rocket game corner count or no (and/or chansey at the safari zone)?

Porygon was done purely to complete the Pokedex or just because you wanted it, so the sidequest still had merit imo. Can't really bring any other examples to the table, this topic is something I've surprisingly not bothered to catalogue. :V
