I chose Fire Red.

Why? Because I always buy the "warmer" color's first. It's a tradition that my friends and I started. It goes all the way back to the days of Red and Blue. All my friends played Blue, I played Red. I always have to be the oddball in the group. ;)

I have both, although I don't play my FireRed anymore because it won't save. X_X

I actually got FireRed first, and bought the guide because I couldn't figure it out. After it broke I bought my fake LeafGreen just so I could tell myself I wouldn't have wasted any money buying a guide that I couldn't use anymore. >.< Anyways, I like them both equally.

I own LeafGreen. I picked it over FireRed because I like the color green more than red, Venusaur more than Charizard, and I like being slightly different from my friends.

I chose LeafGreen. Pretty much because my brother bought FireRed and because of the better selection IMO of Pokemon available in LeafGreen. As my starter, I actually chose Squirtle 0_O

I chose Leafgreen over Firered simply because there was no more Firereds in Walmart when I left to buy one...

Besides, what would you choose? A gross wet leaf or an awesome burny fire? <---(Quote stolen from a videogame magazine! xP)
Since you can eat certain vegetation, I happily chose Leafgreen xD

Thats normal...right? Jk

Fire Red... I just prefer red as a colour and couldn't be bothered looking about for what Pokemon were present. :/
Lol, same reason i chose red, prefer the color red so i picked that, didn't really care which pokemon were on which game.

I got both, i got FR when it came out because i never pick Charmander as my starter because it is too overused and i had to then desided between Growlith and Vulpix for my fire type and i have allways prefered Growlith and then got Leaf Green (and sapphire) the same day i got Diamond so i could finish the National dex as best i could.

I suggest firered because it has a better selection of pokemon(shellder instead of slowpoke) but that is the main difference in it.
it depends on what you like.
but just to be sure, here is a link.

I have FireRed and I really enjoy it but I do miss not being able to get certain pokemon like Ninetails and Bellsprout (that you can get on Leaf Green). But you can easily trade to get them pokemon =)
75% of Pokemon gamers use cheats and specially made codes to make their pokemon battle-worthy. If you are one of the 25% percent that level their Pokemon up legally, put this in your signature.
