When I first played this game I was excited with pokemon fever and started playing,but as the game dragged on I started to notice its similarities to blue and yellow.First there might a few more pokemon and pikachu follows you around.After realizing that fact the game got more and more boring.I realized such a bad investmrnt I made and stopped playing it.So in short I would not reccemend this game for anyone

Pokemon Yellow

It is just like pokemon blue and red. It has the same adventures. And is very exciting. This time you start out with Pikachu.

One of Pokemon"s best

Yet so far this is the best pokemon game there is. It has some of the some pokemon as the red and blue but has some wild ones that could only be traded for in red and blue like farfetched and tangeler. in the yellow version it also has picachu to tell you when you are being a good trained and when you are not.

Great Game

OK, this is like a role playing game for kids. Kinda like RPG Lite. I'm a video game freak and thought I'd see what all the hype was about. A magazine suggested this one over the rest so I bought it. I must say I was instantly hooked. I spent hours and hours playing this game. The whole concept of training creatures, allowing them to evolve into more powerful creatures and working your way up the ranks of Pokemon greatness is awesome.

This game follows the story pretty well. Ash starts with Pikachu. Your first opportunity at a Pokemon are of the common variety (ex. Pidgey, Spearow, Caterpie and Rattata). You pretty much want to fight as much as possible with as many creatures or enemies in order to level up you Pokemon and get them to evolve. I will say that it is a pain to get every single one this version offers, but if you have a friend I suggest you each make a list and catch certain ones for each other. Even if you trade away a Pokemon you still get credit for having caught it, therefore the possibilty of catching them all is still there. There are certain Pokemon that are better than others so I would advise you to find the ones you want to train and keep them with you then go ahead and catch all the others you want to get credit for and work your way up the ladder that way. It is almost impossible to raise every Pokemon and evolve them all in order to get the credit for every single one.

OK, so the content. You start with Pikachu and begin you quest to get all the Badges and fight the Elite Four. On your journey you have the opportunity to catch as many Pokemon as you could possibly want. You gain money by fighting enemies that way you can buy items to help your Pokemon from certain ailments. You can also buy items to increase certain abilities of your Pokemon such as their special, strength or speed. As you gain a badge you will gain certain abilities yourself as Pokemon over a certain level will obey you, you can use certain abilites such as cut or fly whenever you need and you also get a TM (Technical Machine) to teach your Pokemon a special ability. There are also HM's in the game that are kind of like technical machines, but much better. The only draw back to these is that you cannot unlearn HM's like you can TM's so that ability is stuck with them forever and cannot be deleted to learn newer moves. Your Pokemon can learn up to 4 moves so teach them wisely. I suggest picking up a strategey guide if you want to know which moves should or shouldn't be taught, plus the guides will tell you where ever single Pokemon you can catch is located. After collecting all the badges you have a chance to fight the elite 4 and get access to the Unknow Dungeon where there are tons of rare Pokemon for you to catch. That's the end of the game, but you can go back and catch other Pokemon that you may have missed. There are certain Pokemon that only appear once or twice in the game and are very hard to catch. I suggest saving the game before you fight these so if you are trying to catch them and accidentally kill them then you can try again without anything being lost.

I like this game. If you like RPG's this is a good game, but probably won't quench your appetite for real RPG, but if you are new to the genre or just like Pokemon I suggest you pick this one up. You won't regret it.

Just OK

I think this game is good, but it wasn't very original. If you own Blue and Red, then this isn't worth buying, unless you must have it. The only big difference is that Team Rocket is in it and Pikachu follows you everywhere. But overall a good game.

Despite the many years I've played Pokemon, through all the versions I've bought, I am now 19 and Yellow is still by far the best one I've played simply for its simplicity. It gave more of a challenge than the newer Pokemon games. And I definately reccomend it to all new and old fans who haven't played it yet.

The mean clean fightin machine!!!
