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 leading 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 improve 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 Color's infrared system. Pokémon gained through trades learn and evolve faster, and trading is the only way to capture all 151 Pokémon, since each Pokémon game (Pokémon Red, Pokémon Blue, andPokémon Yellow) 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 Yellow owner and arrange a trade.
Pokémon Blue is packed with interesting characters, an ingenious story hook, intriguing strategy, and of course plenty of cute Pokemon and it's easy to see how it started the Pokémania that is sweeping the world. --Michael Fehlauer

Rating:  - Legends never die, they just fade with the passage of time...
This is one of the first two US releases of the series of games all known as Pokemon.Before release, the name was "Pocket Monsters", but the name was shortened for reasons I do not know.Two of the rarest Pokemon in existence can only be found on the original Blue and Red versions, one being Mew, whom rumors have circulated about for ages with definitive proof only surfacing in recent years.The other one, Missingno, is avoided at all costs, as it only exists because of insufficient debugging ...

Rating: - The Definitive Handheld Experience
This game came out some time ago, but this is my review. I have played many handheld games since this treasure. I have realized none have been as much fun as this game. It is truly the best portable game ever.
The story, now mediocre at best, was incredible for a little kid. Not to say an adult would not enjoy it. A boy or girl sets off on an adventure to capture and train 151 creatures called Pokemon. The Pokemon are all great and varied up enough to keep them interesting. There are ... Read More
Rating:  - Started the craze. 4 stars.
The graphics are piss-poor but the game play and music rarely get better.
Bulbasaur is better than any other starter ever and always will be. Charmander was cute but not as cool. And Squirtle as adorable as he was was way too slow.
The madness never stopped in my house once me and my bro (22 and 16 now) got these into our grubby paws. We did next to no trading, but tons of gaming.
20 Pokemon that are in this title are:
Bulbasaur, Starmie, Vulpix, ... Read More
Rating:  - GET YELLOW
This game is fun but not very much of an objective, all you have to do is beat the champion in the indigo plataue and "catch em all" but thats it, get yellow because you always have to make your pikachu happy theres a lot more to it but if you want to get this get it, its not a bad game it just doesnt have much replay value.
Rating: - Go! Pikachu!
Pokemon is a great way to spend your time. It is very challenging, but it is very satisfying when a mission is completed.
You start out as Ash Ketchum in Pallet Town, where you meet Professor Oak, who gives you your first Pokemon (a Bulbasaur, a Charmander or a Squirtle), and you're off! Throughout your adventure, there are many towns and cities connected by bridges or paths or forests. Each major city has a gym and a Gym Leader, whom you have to fight. Sometimes it takes a long time to ... Read More
