Pokemon Generations
Enhanced Versions and Remakes

Is it true there are five generations (creations) of Pokemon video game fun?

You heard right. Pokemon is a series of games. Each generation introduces new Pocket Monsters. A generation features new challenges and gaming technology.

Game Freak and Nintendo develop the original games. Their remade and enhanced games include new characters, character moves, abilities, contests, and hardware like Game Boy, Nintendo DS, Wii, e-readers, wireless, etc.

The primary goals of Pokemanics are to collect, train, trade, and battle the 718 Pokemon.
Let's basically describe each generation of the series:

1st Generation Pokemon:
Pocket Monsters Red and Green (Japan version), and Red and Blue (worldwide version) were created in 1996. FireRed and LeafGreen is the remake. The enhanced version is Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition. The first 151 creatures are Bulbasaur (Pokedex #001) to Mew (Pokedex #151). Their place of play is named Kanto Region (a peninsula like Florida, USA).

2nd Generation:
Gold and Silver was unveiled in 1999. HeartGold and SoulSilver is its remake. The enhanced version is Crystal. Chikorita (#152) to Celebi (#251) are set in the fantasy Johto region of old fashioned cities.

Each generation ups the ante in the Pokemon universe while maintaining ease of play. Nintendo fans are die-hard. They have purchased over 200 million games since 1996. Poke-Masters do not mess around.

The End.
