why do you play r/b/y?

[Tonu]

i just play that game because there is that Mew Glich and Shiny Ditto thing....

[Cassie-chan]

I play for missingno. It is neat how you get all those idems.

[Lady Umbreon]

I play because Blue was my first Game Boy game! And it's still fun even though now it looks kinda bad. Plus, now people are finding stuff like Mew and Shiny Ditto and Missingno....

[KingpiN]

Yeah, really, whith FR/LG out, theres no need to play R/B/Y =/

..whats that about a shinny ditto..what???

:\

[Imakuni?]

there isnt... that was a stinkin myth b4 gsc

[Mac2492]

I play because I like it!!! I have all my pokemon there (PLus it was my first game) I used to play red but I dropped my gameboy and lost my save (It won't save either, used it to get all three sarters with my cousin :)) Now I play blue... I would play FR/LG but it's in japanese!

[yay!boromir]

I used to play it when I was younger. It was my favourite game then. I haven't played it since.

[Phantom Angel]

I played really really looooong time ago.
and the save data is still there.
*think of old day when he was young*

[Chairman Kaga]

R/B/Y is just about all I have left from my past that I haven't tried to repress...

Nah, I wouldn't go that far. But it is one of the few fond reminders of my tween years. I still consider them the best games in the entire series...because of all the modernization of pokemon these days, it only makes me want to return to the early days more than ever, before it was popular...back when the anime still aired at 6:30 in the morning and 150 pokemon felt like more than one could ever hope to memorize. R/B/Y had the best plot of any pokemon game...it was the basis of the anime, after all, and no area could ever compare to Kanto, no villain ever compare to Team Rocket and the diabolical Giovanni. Even after FR/LG comes out I'll still continue to play R/B/Y just because nothing can compare to its absolute oldskoolness.

[zapdos]

R/B/Y started it all for me. Back in the days when I used to have Charizard with 3 fire moves, lol.

[emeraldslay]

R/B/Y is needed to complete all the others (except maybe fire red/leaf green) because it is the only game where you can catch Mew and you have to trade it over to the other versions.

[Eco-Mono]

I still play Red and Blue because they define the game of Pokémon to me. The newer versions simply don't feel like what I've always known the game to be. On top of that, it includes Missingno., the rarest Pokémon by far since it was hunted to extinction by the time of G/S/C. Darn Lance sending exterminators to Cinnabar...

[Skye]

Good call, Eco-mono. My Blue game will always feel more comfortable than my gold game. (I don't have a GB advance, so no ruby or saphire for me!) In fact, I think I'll go goet my GBC now and start playing!!

[Lucifer]

Red and Blue are the original Pokemon adventures. 'nuff said. Although I'd say Gold and Silver pretty much surpass them in every area possible.

Ruby and Sapphire just can't compete with any of the GBC games. They have decent enough monsters and cool new skills, but capping EVs and adding stupid things like Pokemon contests ruins the brilliance set up by the original games.

[nic egan]

yellow was my first video game my favourite one. me and my level 100 pikachu will allways be together

[chrissmith_uk]

well.... i played it tonnes when i was a bit younger.... its a classic. I never got round to going to one of them NOM tour thingies..... :(

[Mew22]

hey skye where did u get that thing that says that your a houndoom?

[Mew22]

I play because its fun and for the mysterios st anne truck

[Aiya Quackform]

I play to get Mew without a GS. Besides, the Kanto pogeys are my favorite.

[Jesus Freak Josh]

I agree with you Aiya. The R/B/Y were the best, then G/S/C weren't too bad. But then the R/S Pogeys were just stupid (sp?)!

[Bhati]

I play Yellow becuase of the three starters, and Pikachu following you around. I play red becuase of glitch city, so fun.

[Eliana]

Well........ i play because...... lol.....uh...... Well i like pokemon, and i need to stay a true pokemon fan and play the older versions! *actually hasnt played blue for 6 months because game boy obssesion is not overwhelming currently* lol

[Cartmic]

I like editing red and yellow. I have starded maping out the whole yellow game. So far I have found all the maps.

[Hinoshi-chan]

I play for the mew glitch, and that city lol.. And that they are the originals ^-^ And i love them dearly...and whats the Ditto trick? never heared of it @_@ prob some rumor...

[mewbaby]

i play them too.
but i play the newer ones more at the moment.

[Delirium]

I play because Red was the first pkmn game I've ever played. It has a sentimental value to me!

[lil' jose]

I loved Yellow because it was my first game and then a couple weeks before I got yellow I saw one of my friends had red and I watched him play it and he had charmander, it was so strong. But then when I got yellow he got a link cable then I had my Pikachu against his Charmander and I won! Good times Good times

[shining_light]

I like to play it cuz there are so many glitches! *huggles Missingno.*

[Fox_Die]

I like to play it cuz there are so many glitches! *huggles Missingno.*

Ah, good old missingo, I used to love thhat cheat/glitch

[Shana]

I play them because they were the original Pokemon Game Boy Color games, and they are still fun even now. It is funny to compare the graphics of red, blue, and yellow to newer games like sapphire and ruby. They are so much different, and sapphire and ruby are 1,000 times better!
