Very little addition to Red and Blue versions.

There is almost no change in this game over the red and blue versions, short of some color and starting off with Pikachu and syncing it with your stupid little mobile pikachu toy. So here's my review for Red/Blue versions: Pokemon is easily the biggest and best RPG for Gameboy ever. And definitely one of the most immersive and addictive RPGs of all time. I'm not much for all that crap that sprung off of the game like the Tv series, all the toys and stuff, and the crappy Pokemon based games like Snap and Stadium, but the original game, I really got into. You play the game as this kid who's living, esentially, in a Pokemon world. Everyone seems to be out training with them except for you. So when you get one, so does your rival. Then you set out on a great big journey to be the best. These old Gameboy games like this have very simple controls and graphics, so there's not really much to review there. The sound however stands out nicely. On a system with very few tones able to put together to form music and sound effects, Pokemon really does nicely, with some catchy tunes that will stay in your head for quite a while. There is a huge world in Pokemon, it really goes on for many miles and you have to wonder how they fit it all on the little game pack. And there are 151 Pokemon in all, each one with very different stats and abilities than the next. Although, you'll probably only be able to get 150 of them, as Mew (#151) was only given out at those Pokemon expositions a few years ago. You'll probably spend 50-70 hours on this one, as there's so much to do and so much replay value. It can really get you through a boring day of school or a tedious day on the job. Well, there you have it. Pokemon Red and Blue (both pretty much the exact same game) are great buys and great reasons to own a gameboy.
