Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen

Red on top, FireRed on bottom

Pokemon FireRed is a restart of the old classic, Pokemon Red. Mostly a remake, with a bunch of much needed improvements to the original. Such as a more streamlined interface, and improved graphics. Like most Pokemon iterations, it involves capturing creatures and having those creatures fight other creatures. The creatures then get stronger and stronger, while you attempt to capture even more powerful creatures. These creatures have many different affinities and abilities. Some creatures are of the water, others of the leaf, and others of the fire, as well as many more different types of affinities. Along with these affinities are many different move sets that a Pokemon can have. Each of which also have their own personal affinity such as a firery punch, ice punch, solarbeam, or megakick. This creates the popular strategy aspect of Pokemon, as people start to battle their friends and not just the computer, they realize the need to use certain moves on certain Pokemon. Content-wise Pokemon FireRed offers about 50 hours worth of game play, and much much more if you can find some competitive friends to battle with. If you're a Pokemon veteran, FireRed can also help you find those elusive 150 first Pokemon, and reduce the hassle of aquring them with an upgraded version. Pokemon LeafGreen is actually a remake of Blue, which in its orginal Japanese release was called Green. LeafGreen and FieryRed are very similar games that have a few sprinkled differences in enemy placement, and pokemon habitats. But, all in all Pokemon LeafGreen and FireRed are remakes of the great classics, and are well worth the cheap price they currently sell for.
