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. The score out of 10 and letter grade for this one comes from Wata’s score system for sealed games, where the 9.6 is related to the quality of the box while the A+ is related to the box’s seal.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. 🎮A #Wata 9.6 #Pokemon Fire Red #video game sold on 9/19 for $3,109 after 21 bids through This is the first time a #Wata 9.6 has appeared at auction!

Y’know what should be illegal, though? These freakin’ prices! Posted today on the GoCollect Twitter, an account dedicated to posting all sorts of things related to the pop culture collector world, a Wata 9.6 Pokémon Fire Red sold for an eye-watering $US3,109 ($4,763). Just joking! Tee hee! Just a little trick, don’t sue me! I don’t condone doing anything illegal, I’m just a little sweetheart. If there’s ever been a better time to emulate games it’s now, as getting a good quality version of Pokémon Fire Red for the Game Boy Advance might cost you close to $5,000 if you haven’t already got a copy lying around.
