Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions

Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen are Generation III games that are set in Kanto, with the addition of the Sevii Islands.

These versions are remakes of Pokémon Red and Blue, and include many of the same characters, plot elements, and challenges, but with several important upgrades, including:

• Pokémon now have Natures, Abilities, genders, and can hold items.
• Pokémon like Golbat can evolve into Generation II forms (after acquiring the National Dex).
• Pokémon can breed (after acquiring the National Dex).
• Trainers in the outdoors can be rechallenged using the VS Seeker.
• Information on important characters can be stored in the Fame Checker.
• New region that includes Pokémon (and music) once only available in Johto, known as the Sevii Islands.
• Pokémon can learn Generation II and Generation III moves.
• Move Tutors now teach moves once available from the original Generation I TMs.
• Generation III TMs are used instead of the Generation I TM set.
• The Elite Four can be rechallenged and have new Pokémon on their teams.
• The player can choose a boy character or a girl character.
• Version-exclusive Pokémon have been slightly altered to account for new evolutions.
• Blast Burn, Frenzy Plant, and Hydro Cannon became available.
• Location of some wild Pokémon has been altered.
• Deoxys has a different appearance and base stats — an attack form in FireRed and a defense form in LeafGreen.
• Team Rocket has a new branch on the Sevii Islands, based in the Rocket Warehouse.
• Moltres, the Legendary Bird of Fire, has moved to Mt.Ember on Island One of the Sevii Islands.

Also initially included in the box with every game was one GBA Wireless Adaptor, eliminating the need for link cables when trading between the two games (and later Emerald).

These games were named for the original two Pokémon games, Pokémon Red and Green, and feature the same Pokémon on the boxart as their Generation I counterparts. Oddly, even in regions where the Red version was paired up with the Blue version instead of the Green version, LeafGreen was not changed into a Blue version.

The player could trade with Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire after obtaining the items Ruby and Sapphire in the Sevii Islands and giving them to Cleio.

Storyline

Following essentially the same plot as Pokémon Red and Blue/Green, the player starts in Pallet Town, there homwtown, and attempt to leave via the northern grass to be stopped by Proffesor Oak. He gives the player and there rival a Starter Pokémon, either Charmander, Bulbasaur or Squirtal, as in Pokémon Red and Blue/Green.

Here they meet the Pokémaniac Bill, and fight there rival for a second or thrid time. They also fight the second Gym Leader, Misty here, who uses Water-type Pokémon, and get the next badge.
