At the start of every new Pokemon generation, there's always the choice of what version to get. Later on, the sequels are released, which are enhanced versions of the originals with even more differences. But just how many differences are there between the games of a single generation? Well, that's what we're going to be looking at today, starting off with Pokemon Red, Blue, Green and Yellow. I hope you enjoy!

  • I traded my Pikachu in Yellow to my Red version and evolved him. Then I traded him back. Looking back I feel like a monster.

    NOTE: The Yellow safari zone will allow you in if you cannot pay the entry fee, however you will only have one safari ball. This was implimented so if you lose all of your money, you can still get Surf and continue with the game.
  • @Mudkip971
    You forgot the E shop differences being the removal of seizure inducing move flashing, Jinx's sprite in Yellow being changed and the addition of Surfing Pikachu even if you don't have a Surfing Pikachu.

    What about the old man actually being drunk in the Japanese versions? :D

    As a huge fan of the anime, I absolutely loved my Yellow version!! I've never been the 'completionist' kind of gamer anyway, so not completing the pokedex wasn't a big deal-- I would never dream of evolving my adorable little Pikachu! ♡♡♡

    Pokemon Yellow was my first time playing the game. I gave my Pikachu to my cousin and had him evolve it for me. He was lv 100. When I got him back his stats had gone down CONSIDERABLY. This made it seem like a punishment for forcing my Pikachu to evolve. And comparing my Raichu (My starter Pikachu) to Raichus from my red and blue that I obtained later that I let my roomies play revealed his stats were weaker than their Raichu's. So I think Pikachu in yellow version may have higher stats than Pikachus of other early versions to further relate it to the anime.

    "Your rival gets an Eevee as a starter, while you're left with Pikachu" Me: I feel like I got screwed over
  • One change you didn't mention, is that when playing the localised versions of red and blue in a Gameboy colour the chosen colour palette will actually change each time you change location. Most of the routes use a green palette, the caves use brown, and the sea routes use blue. Everything else is based on the name of the town you're in, so cerulean uses a blue palette, lavender uses purple, viridian uses green, etc.
  • @RikuMasamune
    Thumbed up to see the Gen 2 differences. I'm hoping this becomes a series.
  • @AnimaMandala
    Nice video and great research! But I think it's worth mentioning that in Yellow only, you can fish for wild Dragonair in the Sarfari Zone as a reference to the Anime episode "The Legend of Dratini", as well as Tauros' encounter rate being increased due to that same episode.
  • I think that red and blue had a big impact for the creation of the Red Gyrados...because if you played on Pokemon Blue on gameboy color, it would appear blue, whereas on Pokemon Red, he would appear Red
  • @jw24119
    In Pokémon yellow, you can get the three starters by talking to three people in the game. They will give you one the three starters one by one.

    My colourblindness makes me see red, red, blue and orange... WAKE ME UP (wake me up inside)
  • @AnimilesYT
    Great video! I'm really looking forward to the next video with the differences in versions! :D
  • @Katzii
    Very informative - the one thing I felt was missing and could have been elaborated on, was the price differences for the Game Corner Pokémon. I know that there were different Pokémon available, but for the ones that were the same across versions, there were some crazy price differences (such as 6500 (Blue) vs 9999 (Red) for Porygon). Otherwise, good video!
  • @bizmarkie9112
    Very nicely put-together video. I can't imagine all the hard work researching and fact-checking all this, and then voicing the video and editing all the images needed, etc. And you do these videos for every generation of Pokemon games that came out. That's pretty impressive. These are awesome, bravo!
  • @SmashTom
    Really informative video :) I'd like to see you continue this series for the rest of the generations. Awesome work!
  • @Penumbruh
    Legit, enjoyed this video a lot. Keep up the great work!
