    I can't find anyone who has the old games. I have Pokemon Yellow with my super strong warriors, but practically no one plays Red and Blue anymore, and I lost my R/B. Do you know places where I could find old Red and Blue, with a Game Boy Color link cable? I went to Best Buy, but I'm stumped.:(
     
    Agreed. Most old stuff (games older than Ruby/Sapphire and even Ruby/Sapphire themselves, Gameboy Colors, GBC link cables) are actually all out of production, so you won't find them at a place that sells all new merchandise. Your best bet would either be eBay or a local shop that sells used games (like GameStop).
     
    No problem. You don't have to worry about earning too much money, by the way. Because the older games and consoles have been off the market for several years now, all of them come incredibly cheap. I've seen GBCs sell for as low as $7 (although this tends to fluctuate, depending on the condition of the handheld) from a used game store when their original retail value was several times that number. Link cables for the GBC can go for as low as $2, and the games themselves tend to be $15 or lower, depending on the condition they're in. All together, you may find yourself spending no more than $20 on a whole package. Of course, you can get stuff for much cheaper on eBay, but I prefer going with places where I can actually see the merchandise for my own eyes before I buy it when it comes to games.
     
    Good news! My mom's taking me shopping Sunday, aka my birthday, and by Monday I should have already gotten to Pewter City on both games. Thanks for the info on the prices, by the way.
