《Pokémon Blue》 is an early version of the Pokémon series released by Nintendo in 1996 on the Game Boy platform, corresponding with 《Pokémon Red》.
Pokémon Blue is almost identical to Pokémon Red in terms of the main story and gameplay, but differs in the types of Pokémon that can be encountered; some Pokémon can only be caught in Pokémon Blue. Players choose one of three starter Pokémon and gradually build their team during their journey, accumulating experience and learning new skills through battles. The attribute-based counter system in the game is the core of the tactics, for example, Electric-type has a clear advantage over Water-type, and Fire-type can suppress Grass-type, etc. Pokémon Blue is optimized in terms of graphics and color details compared to Pokémon Red, bringing a clearer visual experience. Exchanging Pokémon with other players can not only complete the Pokédex, but also obtain more powerful partners.
If you enjoy the fun of collecting and battling Pokémon, Pokémon Blue is a great choice. It retains the original exploration and training charm of the series, and also increases interactivity through version-exclusive Pokémon. For players who want to challenge the complete Pokédex, playing Pokémon Blue and Red together can get the best experience. In addition, the improvement in visual details in Pokémon Blue makes the retro pixel style more comfortable, which is suitable for players who are new to the old versions.
In Pokémon Blue, the choice of starter Pokémon also affects the early game rhythm. Bulbasaur is easier to deal with the first two gyms, Squirtle is more stable in defense, and Charmander has strong late-game growth. It is recommended to diversify the team's attributes in order to deal with different types of opponents. In the early game, try to catch common Pokémon for exchange, especially those exclusive to Pokémon Red. Use attribute counters to quickly defeat the Gym Leaders, which can save a lot of time, such as using Ice-type or Electric-type against Water-type Gyms, and Ground-type against Electric-type Gyms. In the mid to late game, challenge high-level trainers for experience, and allocate skills reasonably to allow each Pokémon to play its maximum role in battle.
