If you did, upon returning to the overworld, the trainer’s sprite would be gone. If you selected “Run”, the battle would end as it normally does. What’s even stranger is that after defeating a trainer and seeing “Red received $200 for winning!”, the battle commands would appear again. The implication was that the Pokémon died. If used in a battle against a trainer, when the Pokéballs representing their Pokemon would appear in the corner, they would have one fewer Pokéball. The battle screen would then reappear, and the defending Pokémon would be gone.

The cry of the defending Pokémon would be heard, but it was distorted, played at a much lower pitch than normal. When the move “Curse” was used in battle, the screen would cut to black. I know that there is a real move named curse, but the attack did not exist in Generation 1, so it appears it was hacked in.ĭefending Pokémon were unable to attack Ghost - it would only say they were too scared to move. It had the sprite of the Ghosts that are encountered in Lavender Tower before obtaining the Sliph Scope. After selecting your starter, if you looked at your Pokémon, you had in addition to Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle another Pokémon - “GHOST”. Upon selecting “New Game”, the game started the Professor Oak speech, and it quickly became evident that the game was essentially Pokémon Red Version. It also said “Black Version” under the Pokémon logo. Red was there, but the Pokémon did not cycle through. However, the “press start” screen had been altered. The game started with the familiar Nidorino and Gengar intro of Red and Blue version. Unfortunately, when I moved two years ago, I lost the game, so I can’t provide you with screencaps. Here’s a picture of the cartridge, in case anyone recognizes it. I bought it at a flea market about five years ago. I’ve been able to find most of the ones that I’ve played online, but there’s one that I haven’t seen any mention of. They’re generally fun even if they are unplayable (which they often are), the mistranslations and poor quality make them unintentionally humorous. It’s amazing the frequency with which you can find them at pawnshops, Goodwill, flea markets, and such. Pokémon Diamond & Jade, Chaos Black, etc. I’m what you could call a collector of bootleg Pokémon games. I already said that this isn't mine, so you're wasting everybody's time.Īny changes I've made to it are in italics. If you're going to complain about plagiarism, don't bother.

Also, this story may disturb young children, so if you are under the age of 13, please go somewhere else. I will try to find the actual writer of this story and put his/her name down. Before continuing, please remember that I didn't write this.
