4.5/5 ★ – hunkypet's review of Pokémon LeafGreen.

Fire Red/Leaf Green was actually my first experience of Gen 1. So imagine my surprise as an 11 year old when after completing it, grabbing a copy of Pokemon Red and ended up being distraught at how bad it was compared to the remake. But I think that actually is important for understanding how much this game improved on the originals. Replaying it now as an adult it for me feels as perfect as a Pokemon game can be, keep in mind I’ve only dabbled in gen 4 and nothing afterwards. It takes all of the gen 3 gameplay improvements, adds the best post game support yet, even nicer visuals and most importantly ands the vs seeker gadget which allows you to rematch trainers nearly instantly - super handy. I could go on and on about what I love about this game, but it’s all been said before and I’m sure nearly everyone has played this game at some point. It’s the perfect Pokemon game and is a great place for newcomers to start. Played on GBA
