13. FireRed & LeafGreen (2004)



The first remake games we ever got. It kinda saddens me to put these two so low down.. but there's not much I can really say about them other than they are essentially nicer looking versions of Red and Blue. I haven't played these games in many years so I cant really base too much off of my own opinions, however one thing i always thought about these games is how the soundtrack wasn't as good as that of Red and Blue. The simple, almost creepy music of Gen 1 sadly wasn't translated over to these Gen 3 remakes. Instead we got a rather odd mashup of Ruby & Sapphire soundboard sounding songs which didnt really work for these Kanto remakes.



Ultimately if you're wanting the Gen 1 experience but don't wanna pay for a Switch for Pokemon Lets Go and don't wanna try and trudge your way through the early Red & Blue games, then FireRed & Leafgreen are probably the way to go. Although these games are so old now it seems like they should get a proper remake of their own!
