For the person who said, "Whoever still likes Pokemon is living in the past", get a life. Seriously, just because Pokemon has died down does not mean that you should stop liking it just because it's unpopular. It's perfectly ok to like Pokemon and if you think anyone who likes it is stupid then you ARE stupid. Don't judge people based on what they like; that's what they like and it's none of your business.
Uhh . . . yeah. Well, anyway, this game is a classic. I still like it even after palying Ruby and Sapphire. Sometimes it's good to get back to the originals. Red and Blue are both pretty much the same but I personally like Red just because it has better Pokemon IMO (Growlithe yeeaaaahhhhh!) But I like Blue too. They're both fun and have their share of glitches (yay Missingno.! If for some reason you don't know what Missingno. is then check out "Pokemon glitches" and you'll get a website that talks about pretty much any Pokemon glitch you can imagine), and even though the graphics are bad the heart of the game is there. There is one major fault, though: there isn't much to do after you catch Mewtwo. The later games hav improved this greatly, so if you're one of those people who likes to keep a game forever I would suggest Pokemon Emeral.
This game's replay value is great as well; you can play three different games and get three diferent starters and three different Eevee evolutions. Well there is another major flaw and that is that you can only have one game going at the same time. This is not improved even in the later games and I do not know why.
It's okay to like or dislike this game. It's just not ok to bash on people who feel differently than you do. We're all different and some people just have to learn to accept that.

It's kind of strange how I manged to get into Pokemon, but here's how it all began: One day, during a Science class, a friend of mine and I were going around our elementary school yard and picking up trash and Tootsie Roll wrappers. The actual goal was as many Tootsie Roll wrappers we each got, that was how many Tootsie Rolls we would get. Anyway, I found a stray Ponyta Pokemon Card in one part of the yard, and my friend found a Dark Charmeleon. My friend said, "I'll trade you my Dark Charmeleon for your Ponyta if you want". Well, personally, I didn't want to, I wanted to add this card and start a collection, but my friend's Dark Charmeleon did look sort of cool at the time. I finally gave in and said, "well, why not?" So we traded. A few days later, we started acting out some of the episodes at recess (I'd never seen the episodes at the time). My friend was basically making up his own little stories... never mind the episodes that were on TV. Later on, my liking for Pokemon grew when my friend decided to bring his Game Boy Color to school, AND his Pokemon Red Version. I thought to myself, hmmm... this could be interesting. I asked him what he was playing and if I could watch him play it. he said, "sure you can watch." I didn't get to see much of the game because we weren't outside for recess that long. Then, I decided I wanted to get my own version of Pokemon Red. I asked my mom and she said I could. So I did. I got the game (almost 7 years later and I still haven't beaten it) and I ended up loving it. So, in conclusion, I'm eighteen and a half years old, a junior at Grafton High School, and I still love Pokemon (the games more than the episodes), but one thing has changed... my friend and I don't do "reenactments" of our favorite episodes anymore like we used to. I really recommend this game.

People seem to say that, after watching the TV series, they deem the games bad also. Give the games a chance! If you really want to know, the TV series came way after the games did (1999), and it never turned out right. This game is great for everybody to play, except, if you own a GBA, you should buy one of the GBA remakes (which I own), Pokémon FireRed or LeafGreen. FireRed and LeafGreen contain everything Red and Blue had, with several extras. For example, FireRed and LeafGreen has GBA-quality sprites and graphics, as well as something called the Sevii Islands for when you finish the game. You get a GBA Wireless Adapter with FireRed or LeafGreen, so you can play or chat with other people who have a Wireless Adapter and FireRed or LeafGreen. You can also trade with people who have Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald after you've beaten the game and received your National PokéDex. So, bottom line, this game is excellent, but it's better and much improved on one of it's GBA counterparts (which are remakes e.x. sames roads and same region), FireRed or LeafGreen.

I'm bored so i'm writing a review for this horrible game. The tv series is bad enough so why the hell would they make a game just as bad? the graphics really sucks and so does the sound... DEATH TO ALL POKEMON!!!!

On 02/14/1998, I recieved a game that ultimately became an obsession for me. I played this game whereever and whenever possible. I have caught all 151 of the original characters and kept on playing anyway. The game, it seems, never ends. I have about 215 hours on my file, and not once did it get boring. The Pokemon Era may have died down, but Red is still a great game. As the 10th anniversary of its American release rolls around, I can see the revival of a classic on the horizon.
