Product Description
It’s the game that started a revolution, but it’s not just the fad that convinced gamers to “catch ‘em all.” This deceptively unadorned and outcome-friendly roleplaying game design is a far deeper game design than it looks. Pokemon features way more approach and gameplay than it leads on, offering gamers nearly infinite gaming possibilities even after the main adventure ends. Initially released in Japan as Pocket Monster Red and Green in 1996 (and later Red), the franchise arrived in the west in 1998 as Pokemon Blue and Red. The sports meeting could be linked up with each other and with the N64’s Pokemon Stadium titles for creature trading.Editorial Review
Welcome to the world of Pokémon, one filled with wild Pokémon and the people who attempt to tame them. You are Ash Ketchum, a boy on a quest to become the best Pokémon trainer in the world. Professor Oak, the chief authority on Pokémon, has given you your choice of three tame Pokémon in exchange for your helping him catalog and document every Pokémon in the world.

But to catalog a Pokémon, you have to capture it by first beating it up with one of your trained Pokémon, and then hitting it with an empty Poké Ball. As your tame Pokémon gain experience in battle, their abilities increase and they earn access to new attacks. Sometimes they even evolve into more advanced Pokémon.

Aside from capturing wild Pokémon and evolving your own, you can catalog new Pokémon by trading with another Pokémon player using either a link cable or the Game Boy Affect’s infrared system. Pokémon gained owing to trades learn and evolve quicker, and trading is the only way to capture all 151 Pokémon, since each Pokémon game (Pokémon Red, Pokémon Blue, andPokémon Golden-haired) has certain Pokémon missing. Of course, as a Pokémon trainer, you’ve “gotta catch ‘em all!”–150 to be exact. So if you own Blue and want to have a complete set of Pokémon, you must find a friendly Red or Golden-haired owner and arrange a trade.

Pokémon Blue is packed with fascinating characters, an ingenious tale hook, intriguing approach, and of course plenty of cute Pokemon and it’s simple to see how it started the Pokémania that is sweeping the world. –Michael Fehlauer

Cons:

  • Hours of looking at the Game Boy’s small screen may hurt neck
