This is a Great Game
This video game really brings back memories of when I first got into Pokemon. The only thing I don't like about this game is that you can't visit the Johto region or the Hoenn Region. The game starts pretty much like the old Red and Blue versions did... you'll go outside, try to go into the grass, when Professor Oak (remember him?) stops you and tells you to come to his laboratory, where you will get to choose your first Pokemon and battle your rival Gary (name sound famillar??) for those of you who haven't played the game before, I won't go into details with this one, you will need to find out for yourself. If you have played the old Red and Blue versions, you pretty much know the story so I won't bother you with details... all you pretty much need to know is that there are more missions to complete than there were in the regular Red and Blue versions, and the graphics are a lot better than before.

GBA Pokemon Leaf Green Version
In Pokemon Leaf Green version you can battle the same way from the original american Pokemon RED , BLUE , and Yellow Versions. In the GBC of Pokemon red,blue,and yellow you will start out as a guy, but in the new Pokemon LeafGreen Version/Fire Red you can choose to be a boy or a girl. I think it's time to play as a girl. Even if you are a guy or vice-versa being a boy in the past Pokemon video games made me feel its time to play as a different gender of a Pokemon trainer. Anyway after you reach all 8 KANTO GYM Bades from : BROCK,MISTY,LT. SURGE,ERIKA,KOGA,BLAIME,and GIVONNAI you will battle the Elite 4 and if you win you'll battle your opponent Gary(your rival). Once you pulverise him you can then find the Ruby and Sapphire stones. The Stones will allow you to link up to the Pokemon RUBY and SAPPHIRE stones if you can get them and know how to get them on your own. You can then trade from Pokemon LeafGreen/FireRed to Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald versions. Oh I almost forogt to say you'll need to have or won at least 60 PKMON DATA or more but you'll need to have at least been to the SEVILL ISLAND's 1,2, and 3 to do this. After you done that you'll will face a LEGENDARY POKEMON from the POKEMON GOLD,SLILVER,and CRYSTAL verisons which is Entei , Raikou , or Suicune it depends on who your starter was. If you started out with Bulbasaur you'll encounter Entei, if it was Squirtle you'll face Raikou and if you took Charmander from Prof. Oak it will be Suicune. Enjoy the pokemon game gotta go to class cya later

more Pokemon
People just can't get enough of Pokemon. Now, we have another Pokemon video game.

As you battle enemies, Pokemon becomes stronger and learns new abilities. As you become stronger, you can evolve. You'd think this would be a formula that would get old, but apparently not, as many Pokemon games have been released and seen as a successful series.

With that said, those Bug Catchers are pretty annoying. I don't like dealing with them at all. That's the only complaint I can find with this game.

POKEMON'S attack continues... It's super effective!
You know, when I played Pokemon Red and Blue for the first time on the Gameboy, I admit that I kind of got into it. A hundred and fifty unique monsters, each with strengths and skills of a unique and oftentimes supernatural nature, and you had the responsibility of bringing them all together and training them like RPG characters. There's something about the concept that I find appealing, and while Pokemon is an RPG with very little plot (the main reason I like RPGs is that they tend to have pretty good plots,) it does have one other thing that attracted me, at least during its initial release; Pokemon gives you the chance and mission to collect and assemble data to form an encyclopedia on something that is arguably a very interesting form of life. This emphasis on collection is more obvious in Pokemon than in any other franchise, with "Gotta Catch 'em all!" being rammed down our throats from a hundred directions.
In the first game, there was a secret pokemon than couldn't be gotten (except through a game enhancer, or a nintendo event that may as well have been a lottery,) but it was the last in the pokemon encyclopedia, so if you missed out on it, there wasn't a hole in your pokedex or anything.
Fortunately, back then, video game enhancers were simpler and more reliable than they are today, and I managed to get hold of Mew, although it wasn't easy, fun or fair, in my opinion, of Nintendo to put a pokemon in the game they didn't intend to let the gamer catch for themselves.
This factor of Pokemon games has always infuriated me, particularly since the genre of catching and training strange animals is woefully small. Pokemon seems to be the only one of its kind that's made it to America.
When I played Gold and Silver, the same sort of thing happened. Once again, Nintendo gave us a huge number of monsters to find and train, this time closer to 250, and once again, Nintendo stiffed the gamers, both on the chance to fill in Mew's slot legitimately and reliably, and on a new Pokemon as well; Celebi.
Ruby and Sapphire was even worse, since they actually subtracted from the total number of pokemon available since the previous games, but then I heard news of two new pokemon games that promised to make it possible to complete the Pokedex, while returning the gamer to Kanto; the region I was most able to tolerate, of all the Pokemon games.
Well, I had a feeling I was about to be suckered again, but I gave this game a shot. I don't have a working Action Replay, but I do have a reasonable-quality gameshark that works on Ruby and Sapphire, so I played through this game once. I got the first 150 and aquired the gemstones to enable trade with Ruby and Sapphire (a nice touch,) only to find that I couldn't get Mew. My gameshark worked on R&S, but not on FR&LG, and I thought I'd be able to just catch Mew in Ruby and trade it to Firered.
Problem is, for whatever reason, Nintendo made Mew untradable. Once I found that out, the game was ruined for me. If Nintendo wanted to give gamers the chance to 'catch 'em all,' they could at least have had the courtesy to do the thing all the way. This makes me sad and disappointed with Nintendo and with the world of video games for failing to offer what I was hoping against hope for, but to be honest, I'm not terribly surprised. This is something like the hundred and twenty seventh time Nintendo has gipped gamers and fans they could easily have satisfied and I'm sick of it. As I said, the genre and layout of this game, and of all pokemon games are enticing at first, but unless they can permit the gamer to complete the mission set for them, I'm just not interested in them anymore.
