Description of Pokemon, Crystal Version

The most notable feature is the selectable female trainer who has her own set of animations and backgrounds. This is a great option for female Pok?mon fans who were previously stuck playing the game as a male character. There are also subtle improvements to the cell phone system, HM moves, and prebattle animations. Rival trainers' phone calls are now more plentiful and pragmatic. HM moves, which are required throughout the game, are available at the push of a button--you'll no longer have to navigate menus to use these moves. Lastly, seeing a Pok?mon's new animation makes encountering new creatures more fun than before.

If you haven't played Gold or Silver yet, Crystal is definitely the way to go. If you've played those previous games, Crystal has only enough new features to justify a purchase from Pok?mon fanatics. This game is compatible with the link cable, Game Boy printer, and Pok?mon Pikachu 2. It's playable on Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance only, and can be played on a television using Pok?mon Stadium 2 and a Transfer Pak. --Raymond M. Padilla
