Why did everyone buy FireRed instead of LeafGreen?
>>
muh chah ree turd
>>
Charizard is cooler than Venusaur lol
Also

FIRE sounds cooler than LEAF lol
>>
>>24589111
people usually prefer dragons over fat frogs
>>
because people would rather have the cool fire breathing flying dragon instead of a fat pimpled dinosaur
>>
>>24589111
I got LeafGreen for Christmas since there was no Blue remake...
>>
>>24589111
I had to buy leafgreen because GameStop had no more copies of fire red
>>
I found it in a donation and I took it home to play it. It's still a fun game although I kind of miss using the Missingno cheat. I still choose Charmander in this game.
>>
Excluding the better box art with FR, it also has better exclusives than LG.
>>
FireRed comes first.
Diamond>Pearl
Red>Blue
Gold>Silver
X>Y
>>
>>24589178
>Diamond>Pearl
DISGUSTING
ABSOLUTELY
>>
>>24589228
"Femanon, I got you a pearl ring!"
>"oh. ok????"
>>
>>24589178
But White > Black.
>>
>>24589178

>Gold>Silver
Wrong opinion.
>>
>>24589111
Arcanine, the strongest doge or Ninetales, a shitmon I already got in Sapphire

tough question
>>
>>24589111
Because people are nostalgic for Blue and Red over here, not Green.
>>
I bought leaf green because Sneasel is one of my favorite pokemon.
I still chose Charmander though?
>>
>>24589111
I had Leaf Green first. Then my brother's Fire Red.
Then some kid gave me his Chinese or Japanese Fire Red, couldn't tell you the difference. The cartridge was grey, though.
My guess is, like me, they went with the color they liked more. I really like both colors and I already had red before.
>>
Because it had to compete with the version that had a big scary fire dragon on the cover.

Also, nobody in the west played Green so they gravitated toward the only version they were familiar with
>>
>>24589111
I bought leafgreen cause I liked deoxys-d better
>>
>>24589111
I got LeafGreen because green is my favorite color.
>>
I had FireRed because thats the version I stole from my neighbor.
>>
>>24589111
why was Porygon a different price in either game

The first one named just sells more, niggers. I didn't imply any one was better.
>>
>>24589111
Because the games were targeted to kids who like dragons more. Grass-types are for mature adults.
>>
Arcanine.
>>
>>24592593
>fat toads are for mature adults such as myself
>>
>>24592674
This desu. I'm a Blastoise guy and was kind of glad there wasn't a "Blue" version remake so that I wouldn't be compelled to get the non-Arcanine version again.
>>
>>24592795
>fat toads
>>
>>24592976
Is Venusaur not a fat toad? I like the guy, but he is what he is.
>>
I bought leaf green (well, both, but leaf green first). Venusaur all the way.
>>
Tfw
Blue
Silver
Ruby
Leafgreen
Diamond
Black
Black 2
Y
OR

I literally bought all the "shittier" versions, or that is the general opinion
>>
>>24589111
LeafGreen didn't have Scyther, so yeah.
>>
>>24589111
I buy the second version of every game when I do. FRLG was the only one I skipped when it came out, though, Kanto remakes didn't appeal to me as a kid, I thought since I had the original it'd be a waste of money.
>>
>>24593762
Arbok > Sandslash
Vileplume > Victreebel
Arcanine > Ninetales
Cloyster < Starmie
Golduck < Slowbro
Electabuzz > Magmar
Scyther < Pinsir
Quagsire < Azumarill
Murkrow > Misdreavus
Skarmory = Mantine
Qwilfish > Octillery
Delibird < Sneasel

FireRed barely wins.
>>
I honestly never found the game in stores when it was new. Still the only main series game I don't have...

Wrong.

It's pretty easy to tell which of the games is going to sell more when they are announced, the one that seems cooler to young boys will sell.

>Red is a cooler colour than Blue
>Gold is better than Silver
>Rubys are better than Sapphires
>Pearls are dumb
>Black is edgier than White
>X is a cool letter
>>
>>24593789
>Arbok better than Sandslash in ANY Gen besides 1 and even then it's only because of Wrap-Glare.
>>
>>24595660
I thought Silver was more popular than Gold?

Also I got Leaf Green cause my brother got Fire Red like 4 hours prior, it made sense.
>>
>>24595833
Silver had arguably the better exclusives, but some of the sprites were absolutely cringey.
>>
>>24589111
I always wanted to get LeafGreen, I dunno why maybe cuz I already had Red and wanted something new
>>
LeafGreen sounds like "420 blaze it xD" degeneracy.
>>
I bought leaf green because I technically already played red version but not green. God.. 2004 was a great year. Lost my virginity that summer.

That's only true for X>Y and Diamond>Pearl

Good question. I'm missing slowpoke family.

I never bought either cause poor. Someone lent me red, and earlier this year my friend gave me green and emerald.
>>
Arcanine and Vileplume to team up with Blastoise
>>
>>24589111
I bought LeafGreen because Venusaur's my favorite gen 1 starter.

>>24592674
RK9? R9K? FUG

Is this meant to be an accomplishment? You can emulate every single one of those.

There's literally no reason for any of us not to emulate, none of us have friends to play locally with.
>>
>>24589178
Pearl is literally **T H E W O R S T** Pokemon game ever made.
Diamond has better exclusives.
They're both shit but Pearl is a digital embodiment of feces.
>>
Actually I wished for LeafGreen that christmas and got it as well. Then when I opened the package there was a Firered cartridge there instead. Had a good laugh at that considering it doesn't really matter.
>>
>>24602065
>none of us have friends to play locally with.
I'm in my late 20's and have a girlfriend, brothers, and best friend who I still play locally with, though.

I'm pretty sure White and Silver sold better.

I bought LeafGreen. I prefer leaves to fire, prefer the LG version exclusives to FR exclusives.

And I pick Squirtle. But Bulba is fine. Can't stand the orange fire/flying dragon.
>>
>>24593730
tfw
Yellow
Crystal
Emerald
SoulSilver
X
OR

I only regret OR, I prefer Team Aqua chemistry.

>>24605430
>Can't stand the orange fire/flying dragon.

Why do people do this?
>"Orange fire/flying dragon"
>"Fat lizard with wings"

Literally takes more effort for your sarcastic description than to just type "Charizard".
>>
>>24589111
Arbok.
>>
I bought both, m8
>>
I got FR because I liked the exclusives more.
>>
Blastoise + Arcanine + Vileplume core.
>>
>>24605538
I like to insult Charizard. That's why.
>>
>>24605630
Oh, because calling someone fat is an insult now. Nice try.
>>
>>24605631
I didn't call him fat, learn to read tripfag.
>>
>>24605630
>"orange fire/flying dragon" is an insult
Fucking corny.
