Red Version

n. This refers to the "pokemon red" version in the pokemon for gameboy videogame series. This was orginally released in Japan in 1996. The object of the game is to beome a great pokemon trainer and obtain all 8 badges from the 8 gym trainers and reach it to the pokemon tournement. Another goal of the game is to "catch'em all." This is refering to catching all 150 pokemon. Now the myth about #151, Mew, is no true. You can't legitimately catch a Mew in Pokemon Red, Blue or Yellow. No matter how many times your buddy tells you that he found his Mew in a truck next to the SS Anne or how his Jigglypuff evolved into a Mew -- it's just not true. It's not an accident that Nintendo always publicizes its GB Pokemon games as having 150 Pokemon. Mew #151 is a bonus Pokemon not found in the first three Game Boy games (unless you use a GameShark device to unlock it -- but that can potentially screw up your save file, as well as render the game save incompatible with Pokemon Stadium. If you can't resist using a GameShark code to unlock Mew, be sure to only use it on a save file you're not too attached to). However, this is by far the best pokemon game to date. Nintendo just released pokemon "fire red", which is a remake of the classic. Only trons will buy this, because it was red version that started the revolution and nothing could replace it.
