Should I buy Leaf Green?

[kstar]

First of all I'm not sure all the original 150 Pokemon are catchable on the Diamond/Pearl version so I was thinking I'd buy Leaf Green version and trade them over to D/P when it comes to the US....

But the thing is I realize how similar Leaf Green is to Red/Blue versions, so it could be boring beating that again..

Should I buy this game or does someone have other suggestions?

Thanks

Sure, go ahead, it has alot of new stuff in it like the Sevii islands, and its a improvement from the original games

 

[kstar]

Thanks for the quick response,

Another question about it,
How many of the 386 Pokemon are available on it? I'm thinking all of them, (with the exception of the 10-15 or so that are only available in Fire Red) but I may be wrong..

 

[ShinyManafi]

All 150 of the original pokemon except Mew, but for rare ones and starters you'll have to go thrugh a couple times, and the Sevii islands has some Johto pokemon on them

So pretty much I'll need to get either Ruby or Sapphire too, if I want to catch the majority of all 493 after D/P come out?

LeafGreen! You can't get Vulpix in Firered, I learned that the hard way, bought Firered and figured out there was no vulpix......

You can't get the bellsprout line or the slowpoke line in any other game, you also can't get sneasel or misdreavus in any other game, so yes, get it.

For 15$ why not?

You can't get the bellsprout line or the slowpoke line in any other game, you also can't get sneasel or misdreavus in any other game, so yes, get it.

But you can get WeepinBell in XD and Sneasel and Misdreavus in Colleseum...

I bought Leaf Green off ebay..cheapest I could find was $17 which came to $20 after shipping but it's okay

and I do have Gamecube at home but right now I live in a dorm and didn't bring it..I also don't have any Pokemon game on Gamecube

thanks for the help though everyone!

Yes! Buy it its a realy fun game! If you had fun playing Red/Blue, then it should be some good times playing through again but a better more advanced version with more to do!

 

[Tyranitar455]

its not boring to re-play IMO, and its worth it

 

[kstar]

The thing is, I haven't played Pokemon since Red/Blue came out in 1999. I caught all 150 on Red version and then never really got back into Pokemon til now, so I am in for a surprise with over 200 new Pokemon...

and then when D/P come out, there's gonna be another 100 new ones, its fun with all this new stuff

 

[Smashdood]

you also cant get scizor in leafgreen >_>
