    This guide's writing is so good. You feel that the person that wrote it not only played the game, but was also passionate about it. My guess about the weird terminology used here and there (like refering to HM as Hidden Skills and whatnot) may come from the fact that the writer played japanese version first, so she might be using the terminology the way she translated it herself from the original release. Still, it is written in such a way that it is all very clear.

    this is my favorite nintended video yet! i have such a soft spot for this guide. as a kid i was so happy that the guide i had was written by a girl who liked pokemon too, since none of my friends did at the time. and i was totally enraptured by all of the little details she added, like oak's regular delivery boy being sick -- it may seem weird now when we look back on it, and something newer guides would never do, but as a little kid getting obsessed with pokemon it helped me flesh out the world of the game as i played it and develop my own narrative. i want to reread my copy now :') thanks for such a great video!

      If I’m remembering correctly, the Boulder Badge boosts attack, the Thunder Badge boosts speed, and the Soul Badge you get from beating Koga raises defense.
      Edit: I’m half-right. These are the stat boosts in FireRed and LeafGreen. In the original games, the Thunder Badge boosts defense and the Soul Badge boosts speed.

      @zuthalsoraniz6764 2 года назад +10

      Brock's badge gives attack, Surge's gives defense, Koga's gives speed, and Blaine's gives special
      And in the gen 1 games, the badge boosts get reapplied every time your pokémon's stats change (except for the stat that just got changed) - so e.g. if you set up six double teams, you get all your badge boosts applied seven times total, boosting all your stats by a factor of 2.28 - but that gets reset once the battle ends or your pokemon levels up.

    I think the reason why it says Flight/Flame in the main guide and Flying/Fire in the Pokedex section is that, since it's basically a cut/paste data section, the Pokedex was probably added after they had the full translation data, while the person writing the main part had to make due with what they had at that time.

    Out of all the guides, this one fills me with the most nostalgia! Really cool how you go over the bit of back story with the authors. Nice to put at least a name to the person that helped me learn Pokémon red! Back in the day when blockbuster existed and still carried n64 games and game boy color games and would rent the same red version over and over till my dad finally just bought it for me upright from the blockbuster. Good times and great vid bud 👌👌

    When I was a kid playing through Red for the first time, I honestly thought that Blaine was an alien because the sunnies on the sprite looked like big, sterotypical alien-eyes... And that's *still* all I see whenever I look at that version of Blaine. 🤦🏻‍♂️

    I remember getting the Japanese version of pokemon silver for Christmas in 1999, almost a year before it released here. It was pretty difficult to figure out, but having played red and blue previously i was able to finish the game.
    Good times.

    the craziest thing about how he said he played it for the first time on a plane flight from michigan to california is that i first played pokémon blue on a flight to see my grandma and i was going from california to michigan. that’s wild

    Oh that's very interesting! This guide appears to have more mistakes than it really does, but some are leftovers from them playing the Japanese version first!
    For example, Great Balls are called Super Balls in Japanese, which explains the mistake there!
    Flight type is also the same situation - Flying type is referred to as 'hikou taipu', which literally translates to Flight Type.

    I'm glad you ended up making this video.
    I actually ended up growing bored with Pokemon and actually stopped playing for years until one morning I downloaded Pokemon Red on virtual console and I'm loving it.
    I feel like these early games (gens 1-3) really provide such an exiting experience.
    And Its honestly really just wholesome that back when there weren't like 800 Pokemon that the community was still thriving.

    I agree the intros are great in this. Especially when the games are being played out of order so its a good way to set up where we're at and how each guide came to exist without whiplash from future guides.

    29:30 FYI: In the early games, certain badges actually raise some of your party's stats - for example, your team gets a slight buff for the Special Stat (which is Special Attack AND Special Defense in the first gen) after defeating Pyro.

    I had this strategy guide as a kid and I always laughed at the fact they called Moltres Moltos. 🤣 Ever since I purposely call it Moltos when I catch it. There’s a number of errors in the guide but they’re minor, like how they referred to Great Balls as Super Balls at one point. (Which of course is it’s Japanese name.)

    I have the Red version of this guide. It's sadly not in great shape, but it was my first strategy guide and I attribute my obsession with guides and collector art books to it.
    I appreciate these videos greatly because it gives me a chance to really see these guides that I may otherwise not have an opportunity to experience. This particular video is great because it takes me back to the countless hours that I spent reading this guide and playing the games, so thank you for this!
