Pokémon Crystal is one of the greatest games ever made. It mixes everything that was awesome about Pokémon Gold and Silver,and the result is a game that looks the same,but is quite different.

In Pokémon Crystal,your job is to become a Pokémon Champion,but it is not an easy road. You have to train creatures called Pokémon,and you have to battle other trainers in order to become the best there is. You can play as a boy or as a girl,and then you will work up your way to the Elite Four. Once you beat them,congratulations,you're the champion!

There is a lot of depth involved in Pokémon,there are many different moves and types. The biggest challenge for the trainer,is to find the perfect combination of types,one that will defeat any other type of Pokémon. You can inflict status problems on enemies,you can change the weather in order to get an edge in battle,you can increase your own stats,or you can decrease your opponent's stats. There are so many strategies,Pokémon is a truly "endless" game. Even after you finish it,you will have a lot to do.

First,you will unlock another region,where there are even more,harder challenges waiting for you. You will also unlock access to previous areas you couldn't get to before. It is a fun game to play with friends. You'll be only able to obtain all 252 Pokémons if you trade with someone. There are some Pokémon that only evolve when you trade them,so you will need a partner. Another key factor in Pokémon is the fact that you can breed Pokémon,and those Pokémon will have eggs,and depending on who are the parents,the Pokémon will be different. You can only obtain certain Pokémon and moves by breeding,so it's good to get used to it. As if it wasn't enough,there is still the coin corner,which will allow you to gain prizes by spending special coins.

Pokémon is a game that everyone should play at least once.So do yourself a favor and try it today,for the sake of old RPG gaming.

Very nice review again. You covered a lot of major topics. Good job!

Thanks.It's just like that old saying... "There is no knowledge that isn't power."

I agree. Pokemon Crystal is such a fantastic game. I think that this is the game of change in Pokemon. I loved how you could choose whether to be a girl or a boy. I love how you can unlock different regions in this game, and when I was younger I use to love riding the Golden Rod train, and switch regions very easily. I do agree, this game has a lot of depth to it, and is also very creative with the Pokemon creations, and the trainers. I love Pokemon, and this is probably my favorite game out of the entire Pokemon series.

My favorite Pokémon games are Pokémon Crystal and Pokémon XD Gale of Darkness.Let's hope that the next Pokémon games are as good as this one,but in 3D!
