While it's basically the same game as the previously released Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue,Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition features enhancements thatmake it the best version yet. In all three versions, the player is on a quest tobecome the World's Greatest Pokémon Trainer, with exploration andPokémon battles (think advanced paper-scissors-rock) factoring heavilyinto the gameplay. While the game world is the same in all three versions, thePokémon you encounter vary from version to version; the underlying goalof collecting all 151 Pokémon can only be met by trading Pokémonvia Link Cable with anotherplayer with a different Pokémon version. (Players can also battle againstone another using the Link Cable setup.)
Pokémon Yellow follows the TV cartoon series more closely than theother versions. Your first Pokémon in Yellow is Pikachu, and hetravels alongside you as opposed to inside a Pokéball (like mostPokémon). Pikachu's mood can be displayed virtual pet style: keepinghim happy is important, as his mood affects certain events in the game. Inaddition to the inclusion of other TV show elements like Team Rocket, new battlemodes between players are available as well as a secret game called Pikachu'sBeach.
If you haven't played any of the Pokémon games before,Pokémon Yellow is the best place to start. But whilePokémaniacs will go gaga over Yellow's new features, lessenthusiastic veterans of Red and Blue may not find the extras tobe quite so special. --Joe Hon

- New features may not be enough for some Pokémon veterans

Rating: - The Crown of the Original Three
As has been done in other Pokemon versions (Gold/Silver then Crystal), Yellow tops off the two other Gameboy versions nicely (Red/Blue). In addition to having Pikachu as your constant companion, the additional changes, though subtle, will have you taking up the quest yet again to "catch 'em all".
Although the graphics outside of battle are lackluster, inside a battle between two Pokemon show off the graphical enhancements nicely. Pikachu's "mood meter" will have you attempting to please ... Read More
Rating:  - Pokemon Yellow Version -GB
Good game I thought some of the graphic's were a little tacky for my taste although the funny part is they say this game is for the original Game Boy but when you play the game the background like houses and the ocean and people the graphics really suck major but when you get into a pokemon battle with another trainer and you see both pokemon their both in crystal clear color which is really weird because this game is suppose to be for the GB not GBC so go figure I just thought that was pretty interesting ...

Rating: - A good continuation of this never ending series.
This game is essentially pokemon red or blue with the graphics updated a little. So I won't bore you with talking about the core game play. However, I will talk to you about what makes this game different than red or blue, therefore allowing it to receive high marks. This version makes the game a lot more like the show. Your starting pokemon is pikachu, but this time he/she follows you around on foot instead of in a pokeball. You can see it on screen following your every move. They also incorporated new features ...

Rating: - Great Pokemon Game
I am old school when it comes to Pokemon and this is one of the best of the original three games. The controls and goal are the same as in Red and Blue with a few new features such as Pikachu following you and being able to check its mood and the introduction of Team Rocket's Jesse and James.
