Pokémon Red: A Timeless Classic

I first picked up Pokémon Red as a child, and it quickly became one of my most cherished games. The nostalgia factor is undeniable for those who grew up with the series. The pixelated graphics and simple gameplay may seem quaint by today's standards, but they add to the game's charm.

Despite its age, Pokémon Red still holds up remarkably well. The core gameplay loop of catching, training, and battling Pokémon remains as addictive as ever. The game's world is full of secrets to uncover and challenges to overcome.

While the game may not be as polished as modern Pokémon titles, the glitches and exploits almost feel like part of the experience. They add a unique flavor to the game that is hard to replicate in newer titles.

If you're a fan of classic video games or looking for a nostalgic trip down memory lane, Pokémon Red is a must-play. It's a timeless classic that continues to capture the hearts of players of all ages.

As tradition for first games in older series. This game blows. Yeah, yeah we owe it alot but I'm looking at it purely as a fun game, which it is not. It's unbalanced, a glitch mess, and the sprite work is very hit or miss. But the formula was there and many other series started of much worse. Overall not the worst thing I've ever played

My team for red was literally just nidoking and hypno. Yes I boxed the starter as I picked bulbasaur. Who didn't carry his weight. Don't worry I used a better team in fire red
