GreenBlue3DS Virtual Console | genre = Role-playing video game | series = ''Pokémon'' | modes = Single-player, multiplayer | platforms = Game Boy }} ''Pokémon Red Version'' and ''Pokémon Blue Version'', originally released in Japan as , are role-playing video games developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy. They are the first installments of the ''Pokémon'' series. They were first released in Japan in 1996 as ''Red'' and ''Green'', with being released later in the year as a special edition. They were later released as ''Red'' and ''Blue'' in North America, Europe and Australia over the following three years. ''Pokémon Yellow'', a special edition version, was released roughly a year later. ''Red'' and ''Green'' have subsequently been remade for the Game Boy Advance as ''Pokémon FireRed'' and ''LeafGreen'', released in 2004. The player controls the main character from an overhead perspective and navigates him throughout the fictional region of Kanto in a quest to master Pokémon battling. The goal of the games is to become the champion of the Pokémon League by defeating the eight Gym Leaders, then the top four Pokémon trainers in the land, the Elite Four. Another objective is to complete the Pokédex, an in-game encyclopedia, by obtaining the 150 available Pokémon. The nefarious Team Rocket provide an antagonistic force, as does the player's childhood rival. ''Red'' and ''Blue'' utilize the Game Link Cable, which connects two games together and allows Pokémon to be traded or battled between games. Both titles are independent of each other but feature the same plot and, while they can be played separately, it is necessary for players to trade among the two in order to obtain all of the first 150 Pokémon. The 151st Pokémon (Mew) is available only through a glitch in the game or an official distribution by Nintendo. ''Red'' and ''Blue'' were well-received; critics praised the multiplayer options, especially the concept of trading. They received an aggregated score of 89% on GameRankings and are perennially ranked on top-game lists including at least four years on IGN's Top 100 Games of All Time. The games' releases marked the beginning of what would become a multibillion-dollar franchise, jointly selling millions of copies worldwide. In 2009 they appeared in the ''Guinness Book of World Records'' under "Best selling RPG on the Game Boy" and "Best selling RPG of all time". ==Gameplay== (詳細はthird-person view, overhead perspective and consist of three basic screens: an overworld, in which the player navigates the main character; a side-view battle screen; and a menu interface, in which the player configures his or her Pokémon, items, or gameplay settings. The player can use his or her Pokémon to battle other Pokémon. When the player encounters a wild Pokémon or is challenged by a trainer, the screen switches to a turn-based battle screen that displays the engaged Pokémon. During battle, the player may select a maneuver for his or her Pokémon to fight using one of four moves, use an item, switch his or her active Pokémon, or attempt to flee. Pokémon have hit points (HP); when a Pokémon's HP is reduced to zero, it faints and can no longer battle until it is revived. Once an enemy Pokémon faints, the player's Pokémon involved in the battle receive a certain number of experience points (EXP). After accumulating enough EXP, a Pokémon will level up.〔 A Pokémon's level controls its physical properties, such as the battle statistics acquired, and the moves learned. At certain levels, the Pokémon may also evolve. These evolutions affect the statistics and also the levels at which new moves are learnt (higher levels of evolution gain more statistics per level, although they may not learn new moves as early, if at all, compared with the lower levels of evolution). Catching Pokémon is another essential element of the gameplay. During battle with a wild Pokémon, the player may throw a Poké Ball at it. If the Pokémon is successfully caught, it will come under the ownership of the player. Factors in the success rate of capture include the HP of the target Pokémon and the type of Poké Ball used: the lower the target's HP and the stronger the Poké Ball, the higher the success rate of capture. The ultimate goal of the games is to complete the entries in the Pokédex, a comprehensive Pokémon encyclopedia, by capturing, evolving, and trading to obtain all 151 creatures. ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'' allow players to trade Pokémon between two cartridges via a Game Link Cable. This method of trading must be done to fully complete the Pokédex, since certain Pokémon will only evolve upon being traded and each of the two games have version-exclusive Pokémon.〔 The Link Cable also makes it possible to battle another player's Pokémon team.〔 When playing ''Red'' or ''Blue'' on a Game Boy Advance or SP, the standard GBA/SP link cable will not work; players must use the Nintendo Universal Game Link Cable instead. Moreover, the English versions of the games are not compatible with their Japanese counterparts, and such trades will result in corruption of the save files because the games use different languages and therefore character sets. As well as trading with each other and ''Pokémon Yellow'', ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'' can trade Pokémon with the second generation of Pokémon games: ''Pokémon Gold'', ''Silver'', and ''Crystal''. However, there are limitations: the games cannot link together if one player's party contains Pokémon or moves introduced in the second generation games.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pokemon Gold and Silver Strategy Guide: Trading )〕 Also, using the Transfer Pak for the Nintendo 64, data such as Pokémon and items from ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'' can be used in the Nintendo 64 games ''Pokémon Stadium'' and ''Pokémon Stadium 2''. ''Red'' and ''Blue'' are not compatible with the ''Pokémon'' games of the later "Advanced Generation" for the Game Boy Advance or GameCube. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pokémon Red and Blue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
