cliffhanger on 18 July 2016
| mZuzek said: I might be a little bit too late for this, but my recommendation would be: DO NOT play Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold or SoulSilver BEFORE playing Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed or LeafGreen. There's a certain reason for why you would want to play R/B/Y/FR/LG before G/S/C/HG/SS, and I'm not going to say why because that would kinda spoil the experience for you, but trust me, it's better this way. Other than that, you can start with pretty much any Pokémon game out there. In my opinion the best ones are X/Y (on the 3DS), and they're pretty good to start with too, but most of them are just fine. If you want a sweet story (something Pokémon games as a whole don't really have), go with Black/White and then Black 2/White 2. |
After doing a bit of research and taking everyones input here, ive decided to go with FireRed/Leafgreen first reason being they are remakes of 1st gen and I'd much rather play on GBA over GB. Then if i get into it I'll get Heartgold/SoulSilver, then Emerald. Someone here mentioned Emerald is better than the 3DS remake.
So i went out and tried to find a copy in store so I can start right away, but had no luck. Then I looked on line and was shocked at prices people are asking. Seeing how they sold so well, I thought they'd be a dime a dozen, not the case. I did find someone selling one locally for $10 but he hasnt replied to my email yet. *sigh*
In the meantime Pokemon Go launched in Canada yesterday so I downloaded it but havent tried it yet.
