"Not bad, combines two generations very well and has two regions Johto and Kanto(yes you can travel to both) this is something rarely seen in the Pokemon franchise". Gamefreak Inc. Really did go above and beyond what was expected of them and managed to improve upon graphics,and features. Some new features introduced in Pokemon Silver version is the day & night feature, pokegear, the telephone.

"So how do the graphics in Silver Crystal Version compare to graphics seen in earlier Pokemon games, and what has changed?". Well for starters everything is completely descriptive and in full color. Unlike what was seen in previous installments in the Pokemon franchise where the towns and every object in them are all the same color including your character, in Pokemon Silver every object in town has its own distinctive color and is in clean cut animation. The bodies of water move in a wave like motion as if wind is blowing on the water. They now have two types of tree's in Pokemon Silver and you can clearly tell the difference in the two types because of there easily distinctive in their texture and the proportion in there size. The buildings, and scenery are breath taking in realistic looking in design and colorization, I felt as though I could walk right into the towns and felt closer to the Pokemon and the Pokemon battle scenes. The Pokemon sprites have gotten a well needed update and can be easily made out and is in near perfect design color wise and form wise and can be seen in above average detail from every angle.

"What's the sound like in Pokemon Silver?". The soundtrack alternates from town to town, route to route and can be heard rather well, each town has its own music/song or tone to it which really helps shape the mood. Even during a Pokemon battle, the fast pace music has the gamer feeling on edge wondering if they will win or lose. Pokemon battle cries are still unique and distinctive and each Pokemon has there own distinct sound and there's not one Pokemon with the same similar cry. When out on water a certain breezy claim music plays which makes the gamer feel like they are actually in the water.

"How addicted to Pokemon Silver were you?, Is it something you would play again?". I for one was highly addicted to Pokemon Silver Version because it was a whole new region(Johto) and not to mention but you could go back to the Kanto region and beat some of its gyms.So with a total of 10 or 12 gyms and both new and old legendary Pokemon, Pokemon Silver Version had me amused for hours upon end craving more. Furthermore I would diffidently play this game again any day simply because it offered a new story with old returning foes and a whole new challenge.

"So with out reveling to much what is the story like in Pokemon Silver Version?". The story is simply phenomenal , complete edge of your seat excitement and fun so enjoy. The story takes place years after what happened in Kanto, your a raising young man or lady and you have just turned 12 today so it's time to set off on your grand adventure/ journey. The Pokemon Professor Elm has asked you to come down to his lab so you can do a small favor to him and upon doing that he gives you your first Pokemon.So your off and set on your grand new adventure in the Johto region where many new and tough challenges await you and your Pokemon, a(n) all new elite four challenge, if you think is going to be another cake walk like what was seen in the Kanto region you are sadly mistaken. In addition you think you have gotten rid off and disbanded the evil origination know only as team rocket by simply defeating there boss once back all those years ago back in Kanto well they are back and better than ever with all new seemingly invincible Pokemon and are rage bent on capturing and enslaving all Pokemon and people in the Johto region.

"So know that we know the story how about the depth how big is Pokemon Silver?". Well Pokemon Silver is a relatively big game, it has over 10 gyms both from the new region of Johto and the old region of Kanto. Pokemon Silver has a decent amount of legendary Pokemon to hunt down and capture, all three legendary dogs(Entie, Suicone, and Riaku), and Lugia. The game takes a considerable amount of time to beat with all the little side actions you have the option of doing, you'll be occupied fishing here and there, catching Pokemon in tournaments, or doing so gambling winning coins in the game corner to buy exclusive items, and Pokemon and not to mention batting over 10 gyms and taking on the elite four.

"How's the difficulty on Pokemon Silver Version is it hard or moderately easy?" Well Pokemon Silver Version starts out easy but the difficulty gradually increases over time and before you know it you could find you self out classed and out leveled, so train often.The gyms start to get really tough if you don't have the type advantage and don't be fooled, gym leaders will throw out Pokemon really under leveled and then when they get to their last one it will be high leveled then most of the ones you beat combined.The elite four has really stepped up their game this time around, and the new champion uses a certain type that most trainers might not be so familiar with so train hard and create a well balanced team!In addiction the games A.I doesn't make as many clueless mistakes and will not make it easy on you to over come its own skill.

"Overall how do you feel about Pokemon Silver?"Overall I think Pokemon Silver really improved upon and quite frankly set the standards for Pokemon games to come and goes above and beyond with its features, animations and storyline/plot.Furthermore I would recommend Pokemon Silver to any fan of the Pokemon franchise both of the older and newer generation.

I enjoyed reading that, it was well elaborated. Very nice job!

I remember how excited I was when this was released. The classic Pokémon games was one of the things I was most excited about when I found out about vizzed. I was actually searching for a way to play them without spending a fortune and risking purchasing a fake copy (ridiculous how many of those things there are). Anyways... the review was good, it went into good detail. I feel that someone who was sitting on the fence about the series could read your review and know what he was getting into if he was to purchase the game and could make a good decision from there.

Hope to see some more reviews.

Uhm... what you said about being able to play as a female trainer isn't true... The first time you could play as a female trainer was in Pokémon Crystal. That was a year after Gold and Silver were released... But aside from that, this is a great review.
