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 catalogue and document every Pokémon in the world. But to catalogue 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 Pokémon 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 catalogue new Pokémon by trading with another player using either a link cable or the Game Boy Colours infrared system. Pokémon gained through trades learn and evolve faster, and trading is the only way to capture all 151 since each game (Pokémon Red, Pokémon Blue, and Pokémon Yellow) has certain Pokémon missing. Of course, as a Pokémon trainer, youve "gotta catch em all!"--150 to be exact. So if you own Blue and want to have a complete set, 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 and its easy to see how it started the Pokémania that is sweeping the world. --Michael Fehlauer Pros: - Gameplay and strategy thats fun for all ages
- Fantastic replay value
- Brilliant game design encourages players to meet and trade
Cons: - Hours of looking at the Game Boys little screen may hurt your neck
- Only one saved game per cartridge--two people cant share a single game
