Pokemon LeafGreen has got be the most advanced Pokemon game for the Gameboy Advance. You take place in Kanto, like in Red/Blue/Yellow. You are either a teenage boy or girl (you choose the gender, of course), getting ready to go out on a Pokemon adventure. You visit Professor Oak to receive your starter Pokemon, either Charmander, Bulbasaur, or Squirtle. Your rival will choose the opposite of your Pokemon. The story line is mainly the same as Red/Blue, which can be good. However, there is one twist added to it. Once you defeat the Cinnabar gym leader, Bill will take you to what is called the Sevii Islands. Here, after you defeat the Elite Four, you can find Johto Pokemon! Here, you will also battle Team Rocket, once again, be able to breed Pokemon, play mini-games, and trade with your Ruby/Sapphire games. However, they make things difficult. To trade with Ruby/Sapphire, you must find the Ruby and Sapphire plates. You find them, and give them to Celio, the one who works on the system....

SUMMARY:
I bought my GBA just so I could play this game. And I wasn't disappointed. This remake of the original R/B/Y is great in nearly every way. You travel through the familiar Kanto region battling gym leaders and trying to become a pokemon master. And it's not an easy task. As you battle your way through the gym leaders, you will be challenged by a variety of other trainers. Once you beat the Gym Leaders, you challenge the Elite Four, then the champion. If you manage to survive, you will be crowned...

THE GOOD:
Pokemon LeafGreen is set out in Kanto, the original region of Red, Blue, and Yellow. It is a remake, but that does not make it any less better. Some good points about it were the graphics, gameplay, playing value, sounds, and the controls.

The graphics were done very well, with new sprites for every Pokemon. This is not an easy task, and if can take years to make all new sprites, especially since there are 365 Pokemon. The attack animations are also very cool to watch, and took time also, since there are many, many attacks. Another graphic aspect is outside of battles, with the trees, grass, and character sprites. They make it look real, which is very cool.

The gameplay was superb, and it gives you 300+ hours of things to do. You can beat the elite four, train Pokemon, explore the Sevii Islands, and do many other things!

I enjoyed the sounds, because everything was different. Each Pokemon had their own sound, and their was music...

In Pokemon Leaf Green, you play as a boy or a girl who wants to become a Pokemon Master. Pokemon Red/Blue players will recognise the land of Kanto and the games plot, so it is a remake of the original, except it has been improved to near perfection. There are a total of 386 Pokemon to find in this game, instead of 151 in Pokemon Red/Blue, so once again it has been improved. You will also need to trade in time to get them all, which can either add to the fun, or ruin the game, depending if you have friends who also play the games. Pokemon Leaf Green also takes you to seven new islands, which contain some of the Johto Pokemon. You can trade with Pokemon Fire Red, Leaf Green, Ruby, Sapphire and Colosseum, and the game even comes free with a Wireless Adapter! Overall,
Gampelay - 4.9 Superb gameplay, but more could be done to make the Kanto region better. Apart from that, superb! Graphics - 4.8 This game has great visuals but would get a higher score if it wasn't a birds eye view....

Introduction
After 17 long months since the start of Pokemon Advanced series, the third milestone, Pokemon Fire Red & Pokemon Leaf Green release in United States, was finally passed. Is this good? Definitely, yes. Gamers have got new games to eat, hackers - new objects to hack, Nintendo - new torrent of money.
Ok, but what are these new games about? As you could have heard, Leaf Green is a remake of ol' good GB game - Pokemon Blue. A remake which brings nostalgia to our hearts. Nostalgia... is it good or bad feeling for you?

Gameplay & story: 8/10
You are starting this game as 10 y.o. guy (or girl) which wants to become a Pokemon Master. You get one of 3 pokemon from Prof. Oak and the fun begins...
The core of this game remains the same as in every GB/GBA pokemon game: you have to pick 6-pokemon team out of 386 pokemon types(as opposed to 151 for original R/G/B/Y series), available from catching (you have to buy up some pokeballs in order to do it), trading (from...

Ok, so everyone's heard of Pokemon right? And people will probably remember the first GBA games! Pokemon Yellow, Red and Blue. Looking at this game, you really notice how much better they could be! Just to begin with, I will say that no, this is not an entire new pokemon game... It's just a remake of the first ones with extras. But don't go discarding it just because of that fact! When you play this game, it makes you remember what Pokemon used to be about! Everything is smoother, more graphical and there are some extra places you can go so you don't get bored!

You start in Pallet town and go through the exact same journey as you did in the first game, but this time, when you get to Vermillion City Bill turns up and takes you to a whole new group of islands. At first, you can only access isles 1-3 but even on these there is a whole lot more that you could do! Remember in Yellow/Red/Blue version how capturing Moltres always used to be hard coz you had no idea where he...

SUMMARY:
Leaf Green is one of the best games I've ever owned. An outstanding remake of Pokemon Blue, this game has better detail, graphics, role play, and storyline.

Choosing your gender is something I've been waiting for for years to come. I finally get to walk around being a girl; instead of a guy!

In addition to choosing your gender, there's so much more this game has to offer than Pokemon Blue, Red and Yellow.

THE GOOD:
Wireless Trading;
Better graphic;
Extra Place's never seen before;
Better remake then the original.

THE BAD:
Game is very long;
Hard to understand how to get some Johto Pokemon;
Over Priced.

SUMMARY:
Pokemon LeafGreen is a good game to play. Some bits of it are difficult but some are straight forward, which means older and younger people can play this with little difficulty. It is very good how the game avoids complaints on not being able to go to other regions by putting lots of islands to explore. Although I say this I think it was over priced slightly and did not lower price for a long time and when it did so it was at the price that I would have payed when it was a new game. The wireless link makes trading a easy task unlike the older games where you had to buy a...

THE GOOD:
- 386 pokemon
- Longer gameplay/storyline
- okay graphics
- More fun than the others
- Some pokemon you can't get in FireRed

THE BAD:
Its too traditional and repetitive if you ask me, and it seems just like another "become the pokemon master and you rock" game.

SUMMARY:
First of all, I really think this game is a lot better than the other ones. For starters, there are tons and tons of pokemon in this game that it'll make your head spin. There are 386 pokemon to catch in the game, and trust that it will take quite a while to actually capture them. That is another added plus because its longer than the usual ones, meaning there is more room for entertainment, and of course, it makes the game more enjoyable. Another plus is that the graphics arent really that boring as compared to the other, past pokemon games, so its also something else to look foward to when playing it.

There are new areas to navigate and explore...
