The Bottom Line: Yes, get this game if you've got a GBC or GBA. It's smashing.
Yeah, this game's an old favorite. Twice as long as the RBY
series, because this time, you need to collect 16 badges. For the first time, just by pressing the select button you can hop onto your bike. 'Beats having to press start, open your bag and getting it out. The games set in Johto, a large region where you must travel all over. It has wonderful graphics in between battles and still has the old Four directions gameplay style. What makes this game better then the rest is that it goes for hours and hours. To fully complete it you have to travel in between Johto and Kanto, meaning just after you've gotten it over and done with when you beat the Elite four, you find out you're only half way through the game. Whiz through the credits, get the boat ticket, travel to Kanto and help all the jerks over there. But it'd just too bad that you can't trade with Ruby and Sapphire. It has a time machine for RBY, why can RSE do the same for GSC? And you can't forget the legendaries- Ho-oh, Lugia, Suicune, Entei and Raikou. But one question- what are the three legendary Pokemon that I last mentioned? Dogs? Cats? Penguins? No-one knows. Most people think of them as the Legendary dogs, but this is not yet certain. Well it's easy to tell that Ho-oh and Lugia are just simple giant birds.
But what's weird is that the main characters that you play as are just random nobodys never seen on the cartoons. But if they have, I don't know because I must of not seen the episode.
