Pokemon

[DEL 707]

Kinda late to the party here, but I want to try out a pokemon game.

I didn't have a gameboy when the originals came out and it really wasn't the cool thing to be playing as teenager . But not after years from watching from afar, and owning a 3DS, I finally want to play 1.

The question is, which 1 do I buy?

 

[DEL 707]

Stupid question.

I was checking out auction sites yesterday, and there seemed to be a mix of people of people advertising Pokemon red as either Gameboy, or Gameboy Colour.
Is there a difference?

 

[DEL 707]

Well I just won a gameboy colour and i'm bidding on some Red/Blue/Yellow sets, so here's hoping.

 

[DEL 707]

Just won an auction for Red, Blue, Yellow and Gold

 

[DEL 707]

Well it all turned up

I'm playing red at the moment, but I don't have any manuals.
I picked Bulbasaur and I don't know what the attacks mean, i.e
"Tackle : Type/Normal 35/35"
What do the numbers mean?

Also does "B" do anything

 

[DEL 707]

Yeah just figured it out, also what pokemon centres do
Do status affecting attacks like growl stack?

Looked quite out of place tonight on the train, every1 with laptops, tablets and phones, me with my gameboy

Think I need to read a guide, had no idea that grass was super effective against rock, Bulba's vine wipe completely destroyed Brock

What's a good way to level up pokemon, I've got 5 now, but the problem is, Bulba's lvl 13 while the rest are only lvl 3-6.

This damn thing needs a online connection to a pokemon wikipedia or something

I had a weedle that evolved into kakuna and didn't learn harden, he's now evolved into Beedril and still doesn't have harden

Well I understand a few universal truths of pokemon that I didn't get before.
Magikarp is useless
Zubats like caves
