I really liked this one. It was kind of spoilery, but the fact that it was written by someone who played the game before it was released in English (I assume) make me appreciate the mistakes more (as they probably knew a little japanese and were translating it themselves) and also feels a lot more genuine.

I love how much character the old guides have! It's like watching old 2007 youtube, less professional and all over the place but way more character and charm

Fun Fact: calling Koffing the toxic balloon is accurate since some Pokedex entries say it has thin skin and you can see the gases inside if you get close enough.
But I also didn't know it was supposed to be a balloon till a couple months ago, I always thought it was like a shell since it's Defense is so high lol

I’m fully expecting ‘flight type’ and ‘skill HM’ to join the vernacular of the channel.

I recently did a Nuzlocke on Red and, while I enjoyed myself, it really brought to life how flawed/useless a lot of pokemon's movesets are in this gen 😅

[samuelstannard]

Ah the nostalgia! As much as the Gen 1 games aren't my favourite Pokemon games, they'll always have a special place in my heart.

this is my favorite nintended video yet! i have such a soft spot for this guide. as a kid i was so happy that the guide i had was written by a girl who liked pokemon too, since none of my friends did at the time. and i was totally enraptured by all of the little details she added, like oak's regular delivery boy being sick -- it may seem weird now when we look back on it, and something newer guides would never do, but as a little kid getting obsessed with pokemon it helped me flesh out the world of the game as i played it and develop my own narrative. i want to reread my copy now :') thanks for such a great video!

Blaine’s badge increasing your special stat is an odd reference to the badge boosts you get from certain badges to each stat. This is also where the badge boost glitch comes from with stat moves.

[PraisetheSun]

For the special boost after beating Blaine. I believe every other gym badge gives your Pokemon a permanent stat boost. The fire badge increased the special stat. I know there's others but I don't feel like clicking off the video to look it up

[seamusmccarthy]

"Hidden Skills" I believe are probably what she was calling HMs when referring to them. It's not surprising by any means since her first experience playing the game was in another language and Pokemon was still in its infancy when she wrote the guide.

[Emily-kzjs]

Gosh. I had this guide. I had it practically memorized as my brother made me read it to him while HE was playing. As i did with most of the games growing up.

[collectorsalmanac]

I had this guide as a kid and they are notorious for the pages coming loose from the spine due to being used that much. So that's why its probably in a folder like this.

[acehealer]

It’s so cool that the guide writer was already playing and enjoying Pokémon in Japanese before the English release. Kind of want to go back and play Red or Blue on the virtual console. Maybe if I can convince my friend to play the other game.

[Agumame]

I assume the "special skills" increase referenced for blaine is in regards to the Volcanobadge passively boosting your Pokemon's Special Stat in gen1. Dont know why it didnt reference this for the others since i think most the badges in gen1 had an effect like this

[darkninjafirefox]

The page background swirls are peak late 90's graphic design is my passion and I honestly want one for myself now

[Leto]

I remember from the Dutch guide of this game that there even was a suggested team: Blastoise, Dugtrio, Machamp, Alakazam, Flareon, and Raichu. That team indeed can take on any type.

[Gohka]

I am like 99% sure I had this same guide as a kid, I had such a strange feeling of nostalgia when you mentioned the "Trainer talk" parts and I distinctly remember using the map for rock tunnel to figure my way through it without having flash lol.
I'm also now realising this guide is probably why for years I thought Sabrina WAS the fifth gym leader lol and I used to always take the route south of Lavender Town to get to Fuchsia rather than the cycling road lol.

[Randerson]

I think this one is definitely my favourite of the guides you've covered for this series. The way Elizabeth explains what is going on feels (to me, at least) like having that one friend who beat a game way before you explaining the little things about the game to make it easier for you. It definitely feels a bit more informal, I think, but it just feels nice and personal

[stefanbugaj]

I do have to say thank you for the long introduction on this one. It took me back to the exciting mysteries of these games that are all just common knowledge now. The hype back then for a mere 150 Pokemon and a few evolutions was crazy.
