Silver Version Rocks!!

The Silver Version is so cool! New Pokemon appear and that's good. I like this game because its finally got some new and better pokemon. I like the ghost pokemon the best. So I've got Misdreavus. Silver Version's powerfulest pokemon is Lugia. which I have caught. I started out with Cyndaquill and now it is a powerfull Typhlosion. Typhlosion is awesome!.

My Lugia is pretty powerful, too. It knows this awesome attacks like Areoblast and Hyper Beam. Areoblast is Lugia's most powerful attack.

Some people may dislike the game because it gets kind of boring at the end. But let me tell you this. Ash(Red) is pretty tough. It took me about 10 battles untill I finally beated him! He's got a good variety of types. So you'll need a good variety of types as well. Not just fire pokemon.

Have fun!!

THIS IS THE BEST GAME IN THE UNIVERSE AND I'M BEING SERIOUS

For all you who believe everything you read Chikorita is not weak and useless untill it learns Body Slam Attack. Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile are the starter Pokemon. I think for a beginner trainer Totodile or Cyndaquil would be the best. Chikorita is a challange to handle, but when it learns Razor Leaf Attack it can beat just about anything. I would try and catch my first Pokemon before your starter learns it's third attack. Berries grow on trees and they grow back every day. It plays in real time. If you want to get nightime Pokemon and it's in the day change the time. Anyways it's a great game thank you Amazon!

Pokemon Silver is cool.

I really liked it a lot. It was really cool. When somebody battled me, it was the best and I won. I got a badge from that battle.

The best game in the series

Pokemon 2 (Gold and Silver versions.) The second installment in the Game Boy Pokemon RPG series.

Nintendo's Pokemon franchise became a massive success in its native Japan relatively quickly. Although it took the franchise a little longer to catch on in America, it finally did catch on, and when it did, it took the nation by storm. Pokemon games and products sold like crazy, despite the fact that the franchise was virtually unrecognized in America at its time of release. Finally in the late summer/early fall of 2000, the second games in the series got an American release. How does Pokemon 2 measure up? Read on for my review.

PROS:
-THIS GAME GIVES YOU MORE OF THE SAME MONSTER CATCHING AND BATTLING ACTION THAT YOU HAVE GROWN TO LOVE IN THE FIRST GAME. To put it simply, if you liked the first game, it's quite unlikely that you won't like this one.
-THE GAME GRAPHICS ARE DRASTICALLY IMPROVED OVER THOSE OF THE PREDECESSOR TITLES. In this game, the graphics are not only improved, but the game is also optimized to make usage of Game Boy Color and Super Game Boy enhancements.
-IT'S NOT JUST A REHASH OF THE FIRST GAMES. Although the game uses the same general formulas, the game is entirely new, and the world is much larger this time around. Beat the game, and you can even go to the continent where the original game took place!
-NINTENDO DESIGNED THIS GAME WITH PLAYER CONVENIENCE IN MIND. Remember how in the first game you had to go through all those menus just to use an item (like your bike or fishing pole?) Well, in this game, you can set the select button to use an item! This really comes in handy and speeds up the general flow of the game.
-TONS OF NEW CREATURES AND ABILITIES. The original games had roughly a hundred and fifty-one creatures, and these games give you roughly a hundred new ones! This is too cool.
-THE GAME HAS AN INTERNAL CLOCK THAT KEEPS TRACK OF THE TIME OF DAY AND THE DAY OF THE WEEK. Different events happen at different times of the day and on different days. This makes the game all the more appealing.
-YOU CAN TRADE WITH ALL OTHER POKEMON RPG GAMES THAT PREDATED THE GAME BOY ADVANCE ONES. This will make it easy to get your hands on certain creatures from the old games. In fact, some the old creatures DO NOT appear in these games, so you're gonna have to do some trading to complete your Pokedex.
-THE GAME INTRODUCES THE CONCEPT OF BREEDING POKEMON. If you get a male and a female Pokemon together at the Daycare center, they just might lay an egg! This concept is necessary to get many of the new "baby" Pokemon in the game.
-THE GAME INTRODUCES TWO NEW POKEMON TYPES - DARK AND STEEL. Adding in the new types means you're going to have to rethink your gaming strategies - or create new ones entirely! The new types only add to the overall fun of the game.

CONS:
-MINOR COMPATIBILITY ISSUES WHEN TRADING WITH OLDER GAMES. For example, you can't send the new Pokemon species into your older game, nor can you send old species that have new moves. This is bound to get on your nerves, believe me.
-THE MYSTERY GIFT CONCEPT IS FLAWED. If you and a friend own a Game Boy Color, you can use Mystery Gift with your infrared ports to each get a random item, once a day. The only problem is that this requires a Game Boy COLOR - The Game Boy Advance doesn't have an infrared port!

OVERALL:
Pokemon 2 is, to date (as of July 4, 2004), the best game in the Pokemon series. In my mind, these games are even better than the new Game Boy Advance games, Ruby and Sapphire. If you can find one of these Pokemon 2 games in your local used games store, they are well worth picking up. Pokemon games aren't likely to get a whole lot better than these ones.

BEST GAME EVER!!!

This is the best game I have played in the tomraider series. My favorite part is when Tony Hawk does a 900 Nosegrind. I would recommend ths game to everyone who has other James Bond games, and enjoys them.

I just got this game, and I love it! A new feature is added to the menu, Pokégear. At first you only have a map and cell phone. But if you answer all the answers to the quiz in the radio tower (in Goldenrod City), the girl will give you a radio card to put in your Pokégear. You use it to get local radio station. Hint: if you go back to the Ruins of Alph and turn on your radio, keep looking untill you get a radio station marked ?????? it plays really odd music. There is much more to see. Overall I give this game a pefect 10!

longer and better

This is the second Pokemon game I have played and its wonderful!It starts when Pro. Elm,a famous Pokemon researcher,asks you to take a Pokemon and do a favor for him. You happily choose Chikorita,Totodile(my favorite)or Cyndiquil. When there, Pro. Oak asks you to take a Pokedex and start a pokemon quest. You can beat the game in three ways. One is defeating four very strong trainers called the Elite Four. THe second is getting all 250 Pokemon on your pokedex by catching them. THe other is beating Ash,kown in this game as Red. Some other things you can do is compete against other trainers to catch the strongest Bug-Type Pokemon from the National Park,trade Pokemon with Gold,Krystal,Blue,Red,and Yellow version-owning Friends(or yourself)Breeding two Pokemon by putting them in Day-Care,or getting watts from your Pokemon Pikachu 2 Gs(only works with Gameboy Color. No Advanced,Sp,Pokcket,or regular. Well duh this is only for gameboy color and advanced an Sp but you know what I mean)All around this game is great and I highly recomend it for all digital pet fans.

This is an awesome game to get because of the exciting things you get to do. Such as, having 2 opposite sex pokemon breed and have an egg. Sometimes a new species will hatch. Remember, this can happen on Gold too. It is realistic too because of the time. This is challenging at times, like the pokemon league. There are a lot of things you will need to make this game fun. Like, you can get a bicycle like always to make travel faster. The best thing about this game is pokemon you can only get on silver version and the new pokemon. I really have enjoyed this game for gameboy color and am still playing it after 6 months.

REMEMBER TO ALWAYS KEEP UP YOUR APPEARANCES!!!!!
