Editorial Review:
Amazon.com Review: Pokémon Crystal is to Pokémon Gold and Silver what Pokémon Yellow is toPokémon Red and Blue. It features severalminor upgrades from its predecessors, but in essence it's still the same game.The classic Pokémon formula of adventuring, collecting, and battling isat a series best with Crystal. This is one of the best and most addictiverole-playing games for the Game Boy Color.
The most notable feature is theselectable female trainer who has her own set of animations and backgrounds.This is a great option for female Pokémon fans who were previously stuckplaying the game as a male character. There are also subtle improvements to thecell phone system, HM moves, and prebattle animations. Rival trainers' phonecalls are now more plentiful and pragmatic. HM moves, which are requiredthroughout the game, are available at the push of a button--you'll no longerhave to navigate menus to use these moves. Lastly, seeing a Pokémon's newanimation makes encountering new creatures more fun than before.
If youhaven't played Gold or Silver yet, Crystal is definitelythe way to go. If you've played those previous games, Crystal has onlyenough new features to justify a purchase from Pokémon fanatics. Thisgame is compatible with the link cable, Game Boy printer, and PokémonPikachu 2. It's playable on Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance only, and can beplayed on a television using Pokémon Stadium 2 and a Transfer Pak.--Raymond M. Padilla
Pros: - New female trainer
- Prebattle animations are cute
- Lots of subtle improvements
Cons: - Too similar to Gold and Silver
- Mobile phone features not in the U.S. version
Customer Reviews Average Rating:  Rating: - Girl Power! Finally! A pokemon game where you can play as a girl! This off course was the cry sent out by girls world-wide when this game was first released. Female main characters are standard now, but this was the game that poineered that. Highly recommended!
Rating: - Awesomest. Pokemon. Game. Ever. I loved the Gold and silver games, and when this came out, I was all over it. This is easily the best pokemon game ever, with 16 gym leaders and 2 different regions and only 250 or so pokemon (so it's easier to catch 'em all, but not too hard), this game has more content than any pokemon game before or after it. Amazing. One of these days I'll have to get mine out again.
Rating: - Pokemon Crystal It's a fun game to own and play just like Pokemon Yellow,its counterpart from the previous series of three pokemon games. Only certain aspects of game play are negatives such as the time aspect and daily events as well as having to chase the legendary pokemon unlike in Pokemon Yellow. Missing certain events and having to wait literally a week sometimes to return to them is slightly annoying as is having to capture certain pokemon during specific times of day as they are in some cases specifically ...

Rating: - Even with Pearl and Diamond out there, this one stands out! This is my favorite Pokemon Version of them all (so far). Even with Pearl and Diamond out, and all the others, this one is my favorite. I like it because it's origanal, and pretty much all the pokemon that were in the older versions are in this one. It has the best music of them all too! Plus there are two reigons to beat! The reigon from Red and Blue, and the new reigon! 16 gyms! Plus, all the first legendary pokemon from the classic part of the show with Misty and Brock are in this game too. Read More
Rating: - A fun game, but a small warning. Pokemon Crystal was part of the second generation (Gold/Silver/Crystal) pokemon GBC games. Personally, I'm not a huge Pokemon fan, but this generation of Pokemon games was really unique. The Crystal version was the first installment that actually allowed players to choose whether they wanted to play as a male or female character. It pretty much followed the same story line as Gold and Silver, but had a few differences, such as some extra secret rooms hidden in the Ruins of Alph, and the fact that Suicune ... Read More
