I remember spending an unreasonable amount of time as a kid looking for an electabuzz in power plant with my Yellow Version because a friend of mine had got one there in his version. I also was convinced I could get my Kadabra to evolve if I just leveled him up enough. I think he was in the 70's before it dawned on me that it wasn't going to happen. Oh, the days before easily accessible internet were something else. Funnily enough, a friend told me that there was a glitch involving a trainer with a slowpoke and catching Mew. I dismissed that one, turns out, he was right though.

I remember the day the mew glitch was widely discovered. None of us believed it at first either! The Pokemon community on the game FAQs message boards was the first "big site" to find it, someone linked this tiny geocities esque site that looked like it was made by a 10 year old with "I promise guys this is a real mew glitch" but we had seen dozens by that point, wasn't until the resident mechanics nerd (jolt 135) confirmed "IT WORKS!" that it was believed. Was so nuts to hear fake mew glitches for 4 years then around 2002 it's found. Wish I knew who the absolute original was but none of the big sites at the time had it up before game FAQs did

Crystal fills in all Yellows missing species and because breeding is on the table you only have to reset Yellow once, though you do have to get Surf to get to Cinabar to revive the Mt Moon Fossil. This is because since a Gen 2 game is involved, you can just breed the Gen 1 starters you get from the second Yellow run, as well as both fossils.

If he gets defeated by a Pikachu twice he goes "Fine then I'll have a powerful electric type as well!" and gets a Jolteon. However, if he wins the first one against you then he assumes it's to easy and evolves his Evee into something weaker than Pikachu. If he wins loses one and then wins one then he feels no need to flex on the player character or to try to make up for any short comings so he evolves Evee into what he wants, a Flareon.

Hearing it all broken down this thoroughly, I kinda start to understand why I never became a 100% completion kind of person with video games. I remember as a kid, I kinda wanted to Catch Em' All, but Yellow was the only version I had and nobody at school even knew what a Link Cable was. It took a moment to fully sink in, but once it did, I would never be interested in Pokedex completion from that point onward. Even to this day, Yellow really grinds my gears on some of those baffling exclusions made. Most specifically, the whole Raichu debackle. Raichu may not be my #1 favorite Pokemon, but he's the only one that's floated somewhere in the top 10 for all of my life alongside Gengar. Learning that my Pikachu would refuse me the Raichu I so desparately wanted was a heartbreaking betrayal that I would never live down. Much like my becoming disillusioned to the concept of Catching Em' All, this trauma would permanently sear a grudge against Pikachu in my head that I still hold onto to this day in all of my infinite pettiness.

Due to being able to trade back from Gen 2, you actually CAN complete the Pokedex in Yellow with just one other game. All of the Pokemon you can't get in Yellow can be found in Crystal. You can do the same thing with Red+Silver or Blue+Gold. In case you're wondering about getting all the Pokemon in Gen 2, you just need to add another Gen 2 game to any of the cross-generation pairs listed above, since no Gen 2 game has access to all of the Johto Pokemon (and you wouldn't be able to get more than 1 Johto starter, since you can't trade that back to Gen 1 and restart your game).

That was kind of the point of Gen 1. The design philosophy of the game was was to trade with friends in order to complete your Pokédex. It was a social game before internet connectivity in video games. Since Red/Blue came out first, those two games depended on each other. Since Yellow came out later, it was designed to require the other two version to complete their Pokédex. Kinda makes sense taking the design philosophy into account. Also, encounter rates in Nidoran(m) and Weedle were lower in Blue and the same goes for Nidoran(f) and Caterpie in Red to encourage players to trade Pokemon early. As someone who was 10 when the games first came out, its as kind of the norm for Pokemon at the time.

I imagine Jynx was removed because the house where you traded for her became the one where you got Bulbasaur, as I think that was before the Controversy. Electabuzz was likely removed to incentivize using Pikachu, as the only other electric types available, iirc, were Zapdos and the Voltorb line. The former is iconic as a legendary, and the latter can't learn any electric moves by level up. I feel like Magmar was removed because Blaine used one in the anime, but (again iirc) he didn't even use it in the game. Either that or it would be awkward to only have one of the "trio".

I definitely understand how trying to complete a Living Dex in Yellow would be frustrating if you don't have both a Red and Blue version available to trade with. But in Yellow's defense, it actually makes completing the Dex in Red or Blue much easier. You get a guaranteed Pikachu, which helps players that, without a Player's Guide, might never find one in Viridian Forest. You also get three guaranteed starters. A few Pokémon like Mankey and Sandshrew are available much earlier as well. It's also worth noting that the marketing for the game says outright "Trade with Red and Blue to Catch em' all," so it's not even something they hide from the consumer. It's easy to see the choice as a cynical cash grab, but think about it from the perspective of someone who already owns one of the other games, let's say Blue for the sake of argument. How pissed off would you be, if the new Yellow version only needed Pokémon from Red, to complete the Dex? If Yellow had ALL your exclusive Pokémon, then Red players would only need to trade with Yellow players and vice-versa to complete their Dex, then the Blue player is left out in the cold with a version that is completely unnecessary, as they would then only have Pokémon that could gotten elsewhere. They would now be competing with Yellow players to get the Pokémon they need from Red players, essentially leaving Red players in the position of being sought after by both Blue and Yellow players, while Blue players feel like Nintendo ruined the game balance and the value of their investment by releasing a newer, cooler game with all of their version exclusive Pokémon. Or imagine if you could get all 150 in Yellow without trading. People who bought either of the other versions would feel screwed over and have buyer's remorse. What's the fairest system you can think of to prevent people from feeling this way? That's right... leave at least SOME version exclusive Pokémon on both Red and Blue, so that neither of the people who invested in the previous versions feel suddenly irrelevant. Yellow would have TRULY been a cash grab if it had included all 150 Pokemon and Mew, making it so whoever spent additional money later in Gen 1's life could pay to be the most desirable trade partner. You have to remember that most people are not going to go out and buy the versions they don't have, or at least that's not the intention. The intention is that you find other players with the other version to trade with. It's not really Nintendo's fault that a lot of people who play these games are socially awkward and have to buy all the versions to trade with themselves, you know what I mean? I say that as one of the people who did buy all the versions.

would still be better if you needed Red OR Blue, rather than Red AND Blue. If you have Red and Blue, you don't need Yellow to complete your Pokédex (although it can make it easier). So it makes no sense that you would need both Red and Blue. If you needed just one of the two, then you could complete the Pokédex with any combination of two games.

I won't stand for this slander against the Blue version sprites, let alone the Japanese Red/Green ones. Always remember: The first Pokemon games are the only games that they designed without knowing they were making a Pokemon game. They were allowed complete free reign and there were no limits. There is a beauty and art to that that cannot be replicated, because as soon as those games were released, they were codified, finalized, and anything new would be judged against the standard that it set.

I like to compare it to magi-nation, another card game and video game that I believe came out far later. There just wasn't 'depth' in the combat (for the game, no idea about the cards, as I never played it) and while the monsters looked amazing as cards, didn't translate well to the game. Pokemon was amazing in size, scope, adventure, mechanics, moves, and accessibility. (games like dragon warrior 3 were great, but often just shut down when you hit an impossible puzzle) For an original Gameboy game. The original Red and Blue actually quite amazing what they were able to pull off, especially compared to everything else at the time.
@yep80582 ай бұрын
You forgot the most important thing about having played these games on the actual Gameboy device: You had to have a Link Cable and a friend or a second Gameboy device with either Pokemon game in order to trade them over to you and complete the Pokedex. So either you got lucky and had such friends or you had to have your parents willing to spend extra just for you to complete the Pokedex. Luckily for me it was the former.

That's something I bet a lot of people never learn. Most people will go out of their way not to save after losing a battle in Pokémon because you lose half your money, and money is a limited resource in those games anyway. I think your rival might be the exception, but it's easy to forget that and just reset if you lose. And that's really only if you are unprepared enough to lose in the first place, which is fairly avoidable anyway. That means most people will never see the result of losing a battle with him, because they either just prepared themselves and steamrolled him, or else they reset until they won the battle like you would do with any other difficult trainer.
@baval511 ай бұрын
The thing to remember is that they didn't intend for one player to play all 3 games to complete their Pokedex. No doubt having missing Pokemon from both Red and Blue was intended to let/make the Yellow player interact with both Blue and Red players for trades.

I actually like how bizarre the old sprites are. I’m glad they changed it right away but I love how abstract the old sprites were. The old games also felt very abstract as well, and oddly mysterious. The world and cities, the music, and the construction of the earliest games hit different and they felt much weirder than the new ones. But the quality definitely improved over the years, until recently. Even the weirdness factor wasn’t completely lost until perhaps gen 8, which I couldn’t even finish because it just felt boring. Although I’m definitely in the minority that thinks the modern graphics of the newer games aren’t terrible. But the abstraction was one of these first qualities to go. When the space world demos were leaked it completely blew my mind because it reminded me how it felt like it did when I was a kid, still just discovering the Pokémon world and the mystery was still there keeping me on the edge of my seat.
