The first game that made me rage quit because it's too easy. I enjoy easy games, Kirby is one of my favorite franchises and I enjoyed Pokémon X which is a goo goo gaga baby game. However, this game takes it to a whole new level. From the amount I've played no other pokémon is worthy of existing because Pikachu doesn't care. Types do not matter, I encounter a ground-type pokémon and Pikachu simply disagrees. Nothing can stop this monster. Also, catching pokémon sucks, but my main gripe is the nonexistent difficulty. The game looks alright and the music is fine but I just don't see any point of enduring this snooze-fest.

Com certeza esse trouxe ao mesmo felicidade e decepção. Muitos não gostaram do jogo por ''any'' motivos, e muitos adoraram o jogo, como eu. Amei oque eles fizeram no jogo, o jogo tem um carisma mágico que me proporcionou muita diversão do inicio ao fim. Quando joguei pela primeira vez fiquei totalmente encantado com o jogo por ser diferente dos outros jogos que eu já tinha jogado. Gostei tanto do jogo a ponto de zera-lo 2 vezes e ainda zerar a versão Let's Go, Eevee! Amei o jogo e super recomendo jogarem essa maravilha!

Replay, first since 2018. Really good but somewhat dull but kinda really good??? I think it’s difficult to remake Gen 1 nowadays (saying that as someone who played the OGs as a kid) because they’re highly simplistic compared to where the franchise has gone since then. These remakes’ greatest strength is they quicken the pacing somewhat via EXP Share+overworld random encounters+streamlining the catching process via GO mechanics. The Pokemon following is really nice too, and on a Switch OLED I think Let’s Go is a pretty game as well (makes S/V look extra embarassing in some ways by comparison).

On the other hand, it’s Gen 1, so it’s a pretty small/linear map, not many Pokemon (in some ways a strength though) and the trainer encounters get somewhat dull. The forced motion controls are also a bit much. Still, nice nostalgia trip. Didn’t mind it!

Brought back my nostalgia but in a better way. I love the new combat style and the 3D aspect. It's really nice

Curiosities:
1. You no longer battle pokémon to death (unless you're battling against a trainer or a gym leader). If you want to level up your pokémon you need to either fight trainers or catch pokémons in the wild. So the new battle system consists mainly of catching pokémon (and you get combos too).

2. You get the chance of having one pokémon following you around. If it's big enough you can even mount it.

3. This time Pikachu will learn all the important TM such as fly, cut, surf, e.t.c. It's a strange add on but that doesn't mean it's not cool (He doesn't fly if that's what you're thinking but he uses balloons to do so).

Played this at launch and have done so a few more times since then. Enjoyed the game and love that you can hunt Shiny Pokémon easily in this version of the original Yellow Version. Seeing the Pokémon running in the wild and the animation style was cute and made the world more alive. The catching mechanics in this game are based on Pokémon GO and not the classic games, so all of your team gets EX from multiple catches or trainer battles. You still have 8 gyms and the Elite Four to defeat as you do in the classic games. Plus fighting Team Rocket and even Green in the post game.

Post game also allows you to challenge 153 Master Trainers, each one being a master of one Pokémon (including Mew, Meltan, and Melmetal). I beat a handful of these but ended up stopping due to boredom of grinding.

I have another run of this going that I haven't touched in a bit, but its a fun game to play once in a while.

Everytime I pick up this game i'm like "Yes this will be it, i'm going to finish the game."... And that never happens.
I usually get about half way (getting the badges) and my motivation runs out.

Visually its really pretty, the Pokemon all look great, the characters are just like from the original show.

The thing that kills it for me is how they changed the "capture" mechanic, and made it like Pokemon GO. Before you would battle the creature down before attempting to capture it.
Now you throw berries and Pokeballs at it in the hopes to nab the creature.. Maybe its just me, but it sucks. If i want to play pokemon GO i'll play Pokemon GO.

I'd still recommend this to any Pokemon fan, but if you are a "GenWunner" and want a "decent" remake true to the original games, go play Fire red or Leaf Green.
