Opening Side Remarks: This is getting to be a really popular game wherever
you go. I heard about it and I bought it. It sounds weird though. Training
animals to fight each other? Sounds really mean to those cute Pikachus.
I got the red version because everyone else I know has the blue version.
So this review is only for the red version.

Gameplay description: It is fun from the start to the end. Too bad the plot
is so weak. It is a mix of RPG with fighting and war games. It keeps 
getting better. It is pretty smart from the Nintendo guys to make such an 
"odd" kind of gameplay never seen before. It is awesome.

Liked: The new kind of gameplay

Hated: The one-chance-to-catch pokemon.

***************************************************************************

Graphics description: This game's graphics are obvious and well-done. Too 
bad is not in color, or it would be even better. You can see what is what 
in this game unlike many other Gameboy titles.

Liked: Pretty much everything

Hated: Pretty much nothing

***************************************************************************

Sound\Music Description: No beeping after the battle :)! The music is 
really on the personal side. If you are playing, it is OK but if you are 
hearing someone playing, it stinks, so keep the volume down... The sound is
OK and the fade-out for the musics are great

Liked: The FX's

Hated: Music is kind of annoying sometimes

***************************************************************************

Play Control\Game design: AWESOME. This was an amazing idea and it works 
pretty well in this game. The control is pretty obvious and never changes
no matter what.

Liked: Play Control and Game Design

Hated: nothing

***************************************************************************

Improve: Color version, More pokemon, More cities more and more.

RYIL: Pokemon Yellow(will be out soon!) and Blue.
