3rd Gen FireRed or LeafGreen?

[Xertified]

I would say FireRed since... well, not many difference but I just liked it.

How about yours?

Thanks!

In the brief time I played these games, I was playing Leaf Green. While some of my fave Pokemon are split between versions as far as exclusives go, if I still had to pick one version it would have been Leaf Green.

 

[Granzen]

I pick Leaf version because of Bulbasaur.

I prefer FireRed, since the version exclusives like Electabuzz, Shellder, Oddish, Growlithe, Wooper, Murkrow, Skarmory and Scyther.

While LeafGreen isn't too shabby with Staryu, Magmar, Marill and Slowpoke.

I made further progress with LeafGreen than I had with FireRed since it was the first main series Pokemon game I ever owned, but I think I prefer the latter. It's probably because I had a ROM hacking phase years ago and I often used FireRed as a base, which gave me a sort of attachment to the game, haha. :'D

 

[esperance]

LeafGreen! Being into ROM hacking has made me appreciate the uniqueness LeafGreen brings, especially when everyone favors FireRed.

 

[S-MAN]

Leaf green. The color is calming and it's all about venusaur!

 

[Lycanthropy]

Looking at the version exclusive Pokémon I have to say LeafGreen. I prefer Slowpoke over Psyduck, Staryu over Shellder and Magmar over Electabuzz. In the other pairs I don't really have a preference for either side.

LeafGreen is probably my preferred version! I picked up FireRed first and I still remember how happy I was when my dad bought it for me. It was amazing honestly. I rushed through it though and just spammed my Charizard, eventually adding Moltres (of all things) to my team. Typing meant nothing to me as a kid, lol. I was never able to finish the game though.

On LeafGreen though I managed to beat the game. I chose Bulbasaur as my starter before adding a Pidgeot and Gengar to my final team. I had so much fun playing through the game and just have fonder memories of the journey itself, rather than how I got the game in the first place. Defeating the Elite Four with a team of three at Level 50 was a major challenge, and I love looking back on it a lot.​

 

[Lord Cloud]

Leaf Green because I like the color green.

 

[Urugamosu]

Fire Red, I remember buying it with the Gameboy Advance SP. I was busy playing that game for days and days.

 

[mymycool9]

Well what color do you prefer... red or green?

 

[Sydian]

I remember wanting FireRed when they were announced because...fire. lol I also prefer the version exclusives of FireRed to the ones of LeafGreen, so that answers that!

 

[LusoTrainer]

FireRed, just because I prefer most of the exclusives.

 

[gengar__]

leaf green!

 

[Aurora]

FireRed's version exclusives are pretty mediocre, but considering it was my first ever Pokemon game it'd be wrong of me to say that it's not my preferred game out of it and LeafGreen. I also detest the colour green with a visceral passion.

 

[GengyGengar]

I can't decide. Probably Leaf Green because I don't like Charizard, the mascot of Fire Red. But I hate green. Idk I can't choose...

 

[Crizzle]

I played Leafgreen first. So I'll say that one.

 

[TwilightBlade]

I bought FireRed because I preferred Charizard on the box cover. Some of my favorites were left out because of version exclusives, gah.

Until after Blaine, the only Fire-types you can get are Flareon and either Vulpix or Growlithe. Ninetales sucks, while Arcanine is awesome. Even after Blaine, you only get access to Ponyta and (for LG) Magmar, neither of which are worth waiting that long for. There's also Moltres if you're willing to use that.
