Level 19 Graveler with a trainer just outside Rock Tunnel and Lavender Town lol How did he get it? Geodude evolves at Lv 25.
I think the series is filled with trainers with illegal Pokemon/movesets. When I chose Turtwig in D/P/Pt, I've referred to Barry's Rapidash as the Action Replay Rapidash because he cheated to evolve it (level 36, legit it evolves at 40). But there are trainers with them as low as level 24, I think. I guess that makes it more satisfying to beat him with an honest team.
So I heard HGSS bothered to fix a few of the rival battles to make his team legit leveled.
@KingMike: I guess it just seems way more apparent in gen 1. I know there are others I'm going to come across because I remember it from when I was a kid.
Lol I also wish there were more evolved forms earlier on. Too many Lv 20 caterpies and pidgeys. Why do none of you evolve!??!
@BlatantlyHeroic: Pikachu is set up to be stronger in Yellow than Red & Blue. For one thing it learns more moves as it levels up, compared to a Pikachu from R&B. Probably to make up for it not evolving. When I played Yellow it was really easy to have Pikachu be overly powerful after the Pewter Gym.
I don't see the potential everyone else sees in Yellow. The story seems slightly less serious, you can't evolve Pikachu which is a waste of a Pokemon if you can't make it actually evolve and become strong like your others, which pretty much makes Pikachu only useful as canon-fodder later in the game when trainers start pulling out the big guns, and the champion battle isn't as challenging as it is in Red and Blue since he uses Eeveelutions in Yellow instead of a starter.
Picking Yellow over Red and Blue is like picking Birthright over Conquest, lol.
Lets be serious here, why would you choose anything but the special edition or its digital equivalent for FE Fates.
Is there any point whatsoever in playing these again when I still have perfectly fine copies FireRed and LeafGreen? Unless there will be something cool and rewarding when you transfer Pokémon to Sun and Moon with Pokémon Bank I don't really see the attraction here. I guess it's still fun to play if you don't have the GBA version, but I have both as well as a physical copy of the original Red.

Aside from the Sun/Moon stuff there is zero reason to get these if you have the remakes
I know recall you could also get an unnatural evolution of your own. The NPC trade Raichu for Electrode. From what I read, at least in earlier generations, Pokemon received from NPC trades were the same level. So you could catch a level 3 Pikachu in Viridian Forest, evolve it to Raichu then trade to get a level 3 Electrode (which normally evolves from Voltorb at level 30).
I realize that non-Normal attack TMs in gen 1 are rare. Is Submission (TM17) the only one you can buy?

You could say the same thing about Super Mario Land, The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong Land, Kirby and, Kid Icarus and Metroid compared to the modern 3DS retail sequels to those series.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!
So I heard the "Missingno" glitch is still in the VC games. I also heard the Pokémon bank is compatible with them. So it begs the question. What happens when you transfer Missingno to Pokemon bank and then to a newer game? I would assume you can't but I don't see how the pokemon bank would recognize it isn't a pokemon, because Red and Blue clearly recognize it as a pokémon.
@HawkeyeWii: They'll program Bank to block Missingno (and Mew caught via the Mew glitch most likely). I mean, they programmed Poke Transporter to block any Arceus caught at Hall of Origin, which is an in-game location.

I can't think of any reason of why you should pick up Red and Blue, but would you be interested in Yellow? The interactions with Pikachu in this game are interesting and at times entertaining (plus, it follows you), and you can obtain all three starters (though I suppose this can be achieved in the remakes through breeding and trading, if you want all three). Besides that, some of the interactions with Team Rocket are different. In general, Yellow is closer to the anime and is in some ways a more unique game.
For starters, Mew is not supposed to be caught by a player. And I'm sure they have some sort of indicator to know if a Pokemon came from an event or not.
