lol this trend is 20 years old, its gonna continue.

1996-Red/Green

1997-Blue

Pokemon Red and Blue were released at the same time in 1996 at least in the US. I kmow this beca use my cousin and me each got a version to battle each other at the time, i got blue he got red. There was no Green Version outside of Japan as that was their Blue version. Only with Leaf Green did Green version get an international release

im going based off of initial release so the Japanese release year for most of these.

Here it is going by US release.

1998-Red/Blue

1999-Yellow

2000-Gold/Silver

2001-Crystal

2003-Ruby/Sapphire

2004-FireRed/LeafGreen

2005-Emerald

2007-Diamond/Pearl

2009-Platinum

2010-HeartGold/SoulSilver

2012-Black/White 2

2013-X/Y

2014-OmegaRuby/AlphaSaphirre
