How can you not like this?
Pokemon Blue. What an idea. Let me tell you a little bit about this. You start off in your house, in front of your SNES system. You go downstairs, and leave your house. Now you can walk about, talking to characters. You want to leave and explore, but you don't even take three steps into the grass when you're stopped. An elderly man runs to you (actually it's Professor Oak, a Pokemon expert.) He warns you it's dangerous in the wild, because of the untamed Pokemon. He tells you you need a Pokemon of your own to protect you. You walk back to his lab with him, and he has you choose a Pokemon. There are three on the table (in Pokeballs of course) and you must choose one. Each is a diffrent type (fire, grass, and water) and each one has its strenghs and weaknesses. I'll tell you about each one:BULBASAUR - The grass type Pokemon. In final form, he turns out as the weakest of the three, although he still has power. He has a secondary type of poison, which lets you have more moves of diffrent kinds. He is the Pokemon for people new to this game. SQUIRTLE - The water type Pokemon. In final form, he is strong, but not incredibly. He has no secondary type, but he ought to have a secondary as ice. He is my personal choice. He's the Pokemon for those who aren't experts at this game, but have played it before. CHARMANDER - The fire type Pokemon. In final form, he is amazingly powerful. He has a secondary type of flying, which helps him out a lot. He's the Pokemon for very experienced players who want a challenge. What I mean by easy to train, moderate to train, and hard to train is this; Bulbasaur is very good against the first two gym leaders (which gives you a boost in training), Squirtle is very good against the first gym leader, but bad against the second (although it still gives you a training boost, it's just smaller.) Charmander isn't very good against the first gym leader, and terrible against the second, which gives him no boost in training whatsoever. After you pick your Pokemon, you fight your rival (who picks after you.) It's a difficult battle, but it's usually easy to win. From there, you have two objectives in the game. 1: Go from town to town, raising your Pokemon, catching wild ones, fighting trainers, and collecting items. The trainers will be at your level if your raising your Pokemon correctly. What's really fun about this game is you can raise up to 6 Pokemon at a time. You want to have one of each type (fire, fighting, lightning, psychic, grass, and water) to fight trainers and win more easily, although that's not required. It's a large part of the game, because what you raise is totally up to you. 2: 150 Pokemon exist in the Red & Blue versions, and you have to catch them all. Some are easy, some difficult, some only appear once, and some you have to trade. You're probably thinking "what the heck is this moron talkin' about" but I'll explain. Red & Blue are the same game except for a few Pokemon. Some only appear in Red, some only in Blue. Because of that, you have to use a link cable, and trade. With the cable, you can also battle. Pokemon Blue is a very strategic (and fun) game that will keep you occupied for hours. But are you stuck between the choice red over blue, or blue over red? I chose blue because I like the color blue. It really doesn't matter. I hope you found this review helpful, and good luck on your game!

Excellent game!
Pokemon Blue is a fabulous game with a very original plot, and two main objectives. It starts off with you, in your house, and you're ready to start your adventure with Pokemon, creatures that you catch and raise. You try to leave town, but Professor Oak (a Pokemon expert) stops you and brings you to his lab. There, he has you choose one of three Pokemon. This is a very important choice. I'll evaluate each one for you: BULBASAUR: A strong grass type Pokemon. The first two gym leaders are extremely vulnerable to his type, so he is undoubtedly a good choice. He also has a secondary type of poison, which can be a helpful feature. I highly recommend him if you are new to this game. SQUIRTLE: A very strong water Pokemon. He is very good against the first gym leader, but not the second. He is my personal choice. Squirtle is the moderate choice. He's for either for experienced players who don't want Charmander, beginner players who don't want Bulbasaur, or people who's skill is in between easy and experienced. Ice moves can also be taught to him, which can be an advantage. CHARMANDER: An exceptionally powerful fire Pokemon. He is not very good against the first gym leader, and terrible against the second. He seems to be the most popular choice, although he is the most difficult to train. He does become the best of the three in final form, because he obtains a secondary type of flying. From there, you must catch more Pokemon. You need a party of Pokemon (you can have up to 6) and you raise them, moving from town to town, gaining experience, fighting trainers, obtaining items, and catching new Pokemon. The other objective is to catch all the Pokemon (150 in Red & Blue.) Some are easy to catch, some difficult, and some you must trade from Red. You see, the only diffrence between Red & Blue is the distribution of Pokemon (11 diffrent in each version.) Some only in Red, some only in Blue. You must use a link cable between two versions. With the link cable, you can also battle the other person (but you won't gain experience.) That's a part of the game.
I hope you found this helpful. Good luck on your game!

Pokemon Blue rocks!
Pokemon Blue is a great game. This is the game that first got me totally into Pokemon. This game is fun and interesting. You can play this game for a long time. This game doesn't really end. There's always something else to do. In this game you are a guy (in Crystal, they give you a choice! Then I actually can quit naming a guy a girl's name!) who catches, raises, and battles Pokemon, which are like animals. Pokemon Blue is a really fun game. Play Pokemon Blue. You'll be totally into Pokemon. I really highly recommend Pokemon Blue (and everything else Pokemon. Pokemon ROCKS!).
