The primary goal in Pokemon is to find, capture and train various
monsters, all in an effort to become the world's greatest Pokemon
trainer. You'll choose one of three tamed "starter" monsters at the
beginning of the game to help you capture other monsters. Let the
Pokemon craze begin!

Features
Collect all of the yellow pokemon characters and trade them with friends to get
Blue and Red characters.

You'll need to use all three of the versions (Yellow, Red and Blue) to collect all
of the Pokemon.

Test your training skills by battling against a friend using the Game Boy Link
Cable.

Save your Pokemon collection and game progress on the Game Pak memory.

Japan has been taken over by monsters, and no, not Godzilla. The 
craze over Pokemon (called 'Pocket Monsters' in Japan) has spread
from the Pokemon Game Boy games to toys, clothing, cartoons and 
even snack food. 
You can't go anywhere in Japan without running into Pokemon, and
now, it's coming to America. 
Pokemon appeals to many ages and types of fan, which is a big
part of why it's so popular. Players enjoy the role-playing,
collecting and trading aspects of the game, which make Pokemon
so unique. 
The primary goal in Pokemon is to find, capture and train various
monsters, all in an effort to become the world's greatest Pokemon
trainer. You'll choose one of three tamed 'starter' monsters at the
beginning of the game to help you capture other monsters. 
There are 151 monsters in 15 different categories. Each category
will be based on a specific characteristic or element, such as
water, fire, flora, etc. There's a catch, though: there will are three
versions of the game, a Red version, a Blue version and a Yellow
version, and not all of the monsters will be on any one Game Pak.
To collect all 151 monsters, you'll have to trade. 
In Japan, this monster-collecting feature has made America's
trading card frenzy seem tame by comparison. Collecting the
monsters is simply addictive -- but that's just the half of it! 
You'll be able to customize your Pokemon by training them
differently as they grow and evolve. 
For example, two fire-breathing Charmanders may end up with very
different skills and abilities by the time they evolve into their most
powerful forms. The possibilities are endless with Pokemon!

Pokémon is certainly a very good game. There are no Pokémon after all 151 (Mew being the 151st) such 
as Pikablu (which is a fake name, the real name is Marill), Charcolt, and Mewthree. There are no codes, 
only glitchs, such as MissingNo., but he will screw up your game. If not immedietly, but indefinately will 
mess up your game.. Rare candy is not healthy for your pokemon because they don't fight..their stats will 
decrease. And for those of you who say stats don't matter are wrong..Attack, Special, and Defense are the 
three most important stats. And no, glitched Pokemon found with gameshark (glitched meaning a scrambled 
picture) are NOT a pokemon.

To defeat brock, capture a mankey in the grassy area around the pokemon league gate. Go to the forest and use mankey to 
fight until he learns low kick. Then go see brock and fight using low kick.

I've played this game a couple of times...and I gotta' tell you...it's really a fun game...not only that...but it's something people of all 
ages could enjoy playing if they could just take a few minutes to give it a try...I should know...I'm a 32yr. old male from Corydon,IN. 
and I had a blast playing it...so if you're looking for a fun game to play whether you're 10yrs. old...or even 100...
this is a fun game.

This tip is for Pkmn Red ONLY!  But I will not give it away for free.  I require some money before I give it out.  E-mail me w/ the 
sum of money you'll pay, and, if I think it's enough, I'll gladly give you the cheat.  This cheat will work, I've done it tons of times.

Pokemon yellow is the hottest new game out. 
I think it is the best pokemon game yet.
If you do not have it yet you might want to go out and buy it.
