    In Pokémon GSC, after you defeat a pokemanic inside the Union Cave, close to Azalea Town, tells you about roars that can be heard every Friday from deep within Union Cave. You can't actually hear the noises, but it's true that every Friday, a Pokémon will appear far inside this cave.

    Every Friday, a Lapras would actually appear! After you had gotten HM Surf, you could return to Union Cave and catch Lapras.

    Have you guys even bothered to return to Union Cave and find out what this guy was meaning? Were you even aware of this? Did you ever catch Lapras and/or used it in your team? And how (soon) did you find out about this?

    Well, I never played the originals, but I did catch the Lapras in HG. I didn't hear about it, I was just exploring the cave and all of a sudden there was a Lapras, so I was quite surprised xD

    In GSC, no. I didn't go back, but in HG/SS I did. When I was really little I didn't know that it was possible to catch one in the cave though.

    I'm pretty sure it took me a while to figure this out back then and it was so easy to forget to go into the cave Friday to catch it.. </3 I've tried using it on my team but that never lasted too long since Lapras' experience growth was too abysmal for my ten year-old self, haha.

    I loved going to this place and catching Lapras. If I could, I'd change my clock time so that I could get it when I wanted to.

    I discovered it Lapras by chance. When I was younger, I wasn't allowed to play games until Friday, so I was just exploring the cave and I found Lapras. I usually go and add it to my team as a Surf-user, because I don't like Tentacool and Krabby!

    I never went back for it, though i should have cause lapras is a cool Pokémon to have on a team.

    Ah yes, good old Lapras. I remember first finding out about being able to catch it there in like early 2001, so I had caught it there a few times in my day. And in HGSS I had as well. I used it on my team once in a normal playthrough, so there's that.

    I did get that Lapras, but it was a bit of a hassle on a Friday. I was always busy on Fridays, so it took me about 3 weeks to actually get Lapras. It was worth it~

    I happened upon it by pure chance in HGSS. I was exploring the depths of Union Cave one day and as I reached the last body of water, I was surprised to see that Lapras swimming there. I already had another Lapras when I found it, but I thought this one was special and caught it. I didn't use it on my team though as I already had Starmie as my Water-type.

    I listened to the guy and went to find it back in Silver. The thing that gets me is back then it was so exciting to see a new sprite used to represent an overworld Pokémon. Like in Gens 1 and 2 there were like eight mini-images that would be shown in the overworld and party menu, but Lapras was special/cool enough to get one all its own. I don't think it would have were it not for Gamefreak testing out their new weekday remembering mechanic on Lapras.

    Yeah, I caught it, as soon as I figured out how to modify the time on my emulator xD I'm way too impatient to just wait until the next Friday to come.
