Going to download one of these from the virtual console,

Blue.

Green Obviously

Yellow is objectively the best choice since it was made to be an upgrade to the other 2

This

Buy a good game instead

Definitely not Yellow, no need to cripple yourself with a yellow turd you can't evolve or get rid of.

I'd go with Red, the exclusives are better in my opinion if you don't have a friend to help you trade or don't feel like crapping out more money.

>>27242496
If you dont care of any version exclusives, take Yellow

>>27242567
You know you can box your Pikachu, right?

all three if you hacked your 3DS/2DS
remember to not support inferior butchered versions and apparently bugs and glitches were butchered out of the vc ports

>>27242574
>version exclusives
>mattering when you can trainerfly for all 151

>>27242616
Uh, all of the bugs are still there. The only bugfixes are in yellow and those were fixed in the original yellow version.

>>27242580
Well shit, can you? I was told that it had to stay, so that's why I didn't get Yellow.

>>27242646
If I can box pikachu thats a dealmaker.
Ive never played the originals, and I figure I should

>>27242496
see >>27242551 and >>27242642
Yellow is the best choice.

Though I have to say that I tend to keep Pikachu on my team. I normally don't care, but I managed to get attached to the little guy after I played many, many hours of Yellow recently.

Yellow, better sprites, surfing minigame, better level up moves, all starters.

>>27243169
After playing so much Gen 1 with Pikachu behind me, it looks lonely not to have him following behind me.

Just got yellow for the virtual console because I have all of the remakes and current games and their physical handhelds.

what are the teams to dominate with on each game? I'm running Nidoking bullshit in yellow. Should I look up gym leaders and elite four for each game and build a team min maxing weaknesses or do they all have some bullshit wins like Gen 1 had?

>>27243251
>what are the teams to dominate with on each game
Level 100 starter

>>27242551
>No Persian No Raichu

>>27243191
Agreed. I can't stand having him not following me.

>>27243251
Jolteon, Starmie, Tauros, Alakazam, Snorlax, Rhydon, Golem, Slowbro, Exeggcutor, etc.
Normal and Psychic are broken in Gen 1.

>>27243313
Don't listen to this faggot.

>not using the long-range trainer glitch
>being this new

>>27242496
Yellow. All starters, colour, and altogether better.

>>27243169
>Arrive at cerulean city
>Buy 20 potions
>Give to pikachu
>Get bulbasaur

Take that game.

>>27243251

Gengar or Alakazam if you have someone to trade with. Also if you have a friend who already beat the game, have them trade the Pokemon you plan on using to you so you can level up faster.

>>27243365
>arrive in Cerulean City
>don't buy any Potions because you probably have at least one
>keep giving to Pikachu
>has no effect but still raises Friendship
>get Bulbasaur

>>27242496
>Based Blue
>Retarded Red
>[Spoiler]Shitty mascot that overshadows the best electric type Yellow[/spoiler]

>>27244383
All three are shit.

>>27242496
>not getting all three
>being a poorfag
And you call yourself a pokemon master?!
Fucking normies, i swear.

>>27244425
Your mom's shit but you still interact with that pile of feces, don't you?

Yellow if you're okay with missing out on a few pokemon.

>>27244662
Nope.
