How come everyone is always talking about how they bought Fire Red. It is always Fire Red this and Fire Red that. I bought Leaf Green and have played Fire Red, and there is no difference to them. Can some one tell me what is the big deal with Fire Red?

The name appeals more I guess.

Fire always seems to be more "dangerous" than a Leaf...

FireRed has more pokemon obtainable that are unobtainable in Ru/Sa. If you combined pokedexes for FireRed and Ru/Sa, you would come out with mor than if you combined pokedexes with LeafGreen and Ru/Sa.

Also, LeafGreen is a remake of the Japanese green verson. We got the blue verson at first, so people might like FireRed since it is still a remake of one of our games.

Also, most people like the idea of a Red game than a Green game. Who likes Venasaur better than Charizard? Charizard is an old favorite.

Hope that helps.

leaf green is not a remake of japanes green, leaf green is a remake of blue,
and what you say about the pokedex may be true but only by 2 pokemon.

also THey are the same, and people buy more fire red than leaf green cause charizard comes in the portrait and fire is cooler.

Know what i prefer LG. More exclusive.


And FR/LG are the same game with different pokes in some areas so dont say stupid reamke things.

Sorry, but that's not quite right. :P

LeafGreen is a remake of Japanese Green, which is English Blue. :P

I blame it on the fact that Fire Red is more easy to type then Leaf Green. Shorter, plus the keys are bunched more. It is just a theory so don't mind me. Anyways, It doesn't matter too much does it?

It could also be that Red is the color of intimidation... In olden times, Armies used to wear red to scare off little forces that were in they're way, as gay as it sounds..

There IS no difference in my eyes. Its all because of the box and the name. Fire is the thing that gets people and the fact the Charizard is better than Venasaur. But like if people will always start off with the pokemon on the front of the box? I started with Squirtle.(I have Leaf Green). People at my school are always saying "Fire Red is better than Leaf Green, sucked in." I always reply that I like the pokemon that you can get in Leaf rather than the pokemon that you can get in Fire. I mean, some people say that I shouldve gotton Fire Red, doesnt that mean that they wouldnt be able get all the pokemon then?

Wow, that was nice rant...




How is it, that I am a bug/flying pokemon, yet my type is electric...0.o

Mirrors cant talk...and lucky for you they cant laugh ethier!

It's my main game that I use. I don't know why... I just bought it first, then bought Leaf Green as a storage unit for my lovely eggs, and to trade excess Pokemon over to. Simply because I bought FR beforehand, and used it first. That's it really. There's no real difference between the two to start off with. :/
