1st Gen Do you still have an original Pokemon Red, Blue, or Yellow cartridge?

I still have my original gameboy with red yellow and blue all with a completed pokedex as well as every rpg Pokemon game released since sadly my pearl version has met an untimely end in davey jones locker so to speak and has been replaced since but have not had the motivation to re-do the pokedex on that one I am currently only a small fraction away from sun and moon completion and fully intend to grind that pokedex to the end before November gotta catch em all lol
 
I still have my original copies of Red and Yellow. I'm not sure whether they work properly or not, as I haven't checked them in a while, and they're at my parents' house. I also have a friend's copy of Blue, which I borrowed to see if I could fix it (it doesn't work properly - freezes anytime a text box appears and makes a Gastly cry or various other sounds).
 
Only version I have is Yellow and it still works to this day. Many hours spent trying to catch and evolve all the ones you can get natively, although I have never finished the Pokedex since I lacked a Trading partner. I know there are backdoor ways of getting them though so who knows I may catch me all despite my limitations.
 
I never owned Red, but my friend still has her copy, and I still have Blue and Yellow cartridges. They still work, but I never really break em out to play em anymore.
