Thread: LT Weekly Poll #35 Were you addicted to the Sinnoh Underground?

Hello Everyone! Welcome to the thirty-fifth installment in the Lost Tower Forum's new weekly series of polls!

Centered around the Pokemon series of video games, these polls will be based on the various different aspects of the popular video game franchise. Every Monday, a Video Games staff member will post a new poll that'll remained stickied up on top of the forum. Suggestions for polls and questions can be sent to Joshawott or Zeb and they could possibly used for new polls (credit will be given, of course).

With that out of the way, here is the poll: Were you addicted to the Sinnoh Underground?. In Sinnoh we were given the ability to trek under ground and partake in various activities such as digging up evolution stones, spheres, rare fossils, and items. As well as activate the ability to summon Spiritomb at Hallowed Tower if you talk to 32 people. So, were you obsessed with spelunking or would you rather take in the fresh air above ground?

I found it fun, but once I got the fossils, I just forgot about it really. I never really used the secret bases part either, except for catching a Spiritomb.

I never really had many people to enjoy the multiplayer aspects on the underground with, so my experience there was mainly limited to digging. It was quite fun sometimes and a pretty reliable source of some items but it got annoying when your bag just filled up with pointless spheres. :P

It was fun, but after using it for a bit, I got bored and forgot about it. but it was fun.

It was strangely addicting. I think it was one of my favorite things about Gen IV.

Ugh, nobody ever played around in the Underground with me, so I found it to be horribly boring most of the time and a thrilling exercise of loneliness at all others.
I did dig around extensively for good Props and fossils however; I even assembled a pretty rockin' Secret Base (that nobody ever saw boo hoo)

It was addicting. Extremely addicting. So addicting that if I had a weekend day off, my husband and I would spend hours down there, digging for whatever we could find. I forget how many times we went after each other's flag or had to help the other pick out a buried treasure...ah, good times.

I have not even been much into Sinnoh period. I have hardly touched it since completing my first game of it, Pearl and the only reason I dug so much in it(at a certain point) was for a thunderstone to make a Riachu. Although I am once again back into it a bit with my Platinum.

It was pretty fun. The rarity of the items there was just about right; you wouldn't always immediately find what you were looking for, but it was still very satisfying once you did, plus you would probably get loads of others useful items along the way. It certainly beats the frustrating dust cloud method and one hour dream world trips from Black & White.

I loved it, but I wouldn't call myself addicted. Twas fun digging dem Heart Scales ^^

Oh, was I ever?
Especially in the beginning when one is somewhat strapped for cash, and Revives and (in platinum) shards are always useful.
I actually did assemble a complete plate collection once, too.

I, myself, was so addicted that i now have over 100 of each evo stone (among other things), so many in fact that i have no doubt i could evolve every eevee, pikachu, vulpix, etc. in all of Sinnoh! It was such a shame i couldn't forward any of those items though into B/W :c

It was quite boring, actually.

I was very, very addicted. I have upwards of 20 of each type of stone in that game. I have spent many, many hours down there. It was a lot of fun. Kind of miss it, tbh.

I was practically OBSESSED. I would bury, like, 99 spheres in a certain area, then return to find all sorts of rare fossils and plates and heart scales and the like XDD Digging was so much fun!! I once dug up, like, 25 Skull Fossils during one of my visits to the underground XDDDDDDDDD that equals 25 Cranidos - YAY
