Get set to return to where it all started -Pokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version head back to the Kanto region, the home of Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue. These titles also shipped with a wireless adapter for Game Boy Advance, making it the first handheld to have such technology. However these flaws are all minor, FR/LG is a straight and complete upgrade from the originals in almost every way.Six years after the original Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Blue Version, this pair of titles for the Game Boy Advance system introduced Pokémon to a new group of gamers. A boatload of all-but-needless tutorial functions were put in these remakes, and there are some odd regressions from previous installments like the trainer not turning to face an opponent when challenged, newer evolutions being completely barred until postgame, censoring of Gamblers to Gamers, and no internal clock (meaning no berry growing, though you can find these as hidden items in darker patches of grass or trade them over from another game). It’s not all shiny and cool however though FR/LG are major improvements Game Freak had a weird notion of what in this game should be updated and what shouldn’t. This is also the first game to include the VS Seeker, a key item that allows you to challenge almost every minor trainer in the game again. There is the addition of the Sevii Islands a set of new areas for both towards the end and at postgame that enable Pokemon from the Johto region to be captured. The game was also noticeably changed to be easier in some ways (for example you can catch a Mankey before Brock and Charmander can learn Metal Claw, making him a breeze with any starter). There are also the added features of the past two generations of Pokemon which means hold items, running, new moves and movesets (in exchange for the existing TMs, tutors around the region teach you some moves from the originals), female protagonist choice, all that stuff. Because these games were remade from scratch on the GBA games’ engine, nearly every single bug the original had was fixed up and the visuals get a very noticeable update. And so from that came FireRed and LeafGreen, faithful and complete remakes of the original Red/Blue/Green versions.
After finishing Ruby and Sapphire, Game Freak realized that not every Pokemon could be captured in the game anymore since these were no longer compatible with the previous two generations.
