Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
While it's basically the same game as the previously released Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue, Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition features enhancements that make it the best version yet. In all three versions, the player is on a quest to become the World's Greatest Pokémon Trainer, with exploration and Pokémon battles (think advanced paper-scissors-rock) factoring heavily into the gameplay. While the game world is the same in all three versions, the Pokémon you encounter vary from version to version; the underlying goal of collecting all 151 Pokémon can only be met by trading Pokémon via Link Cable with another player with a different Pokémon version. (Players can also battle against one another using the Link Cable setup.) Pokémon Yellow follows the TV cartoon series more closely than the other versions. Your first Pokémon in Yellow is Pikachu, and he travels alongside you as opposed to inside a Pokéball (like most Pokémon). Pikachu's mood can be displayed virtual-pet style: keeping him happy is important, as his mood affects certain events in the game. In addition to the inclusion of other TV-show elements, like Team Rocket, new battle modes between players are available as well as a secret game called Pikachu's Beach.

If you haven't played any of the Pokémon games before, Pokémon Yellow is the best place to start. But while Pokémaniacs will go gaga over Yellow's new features, less enthusiastic veterans of Red and Blue may not find the extras to be quite so special. --Joe Hon

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good but harsh start
I must say, i luv this game. The way pikachu **THE BEST POKÉMON EVER** follows u and is clear for all to see, the start of the game is a major mick take. A lightning pokémon, against a rock gym .... Even if u learn to use tackle etc. u get pwned by his force and if u want to beat Brock ur gunna have to train a mutha futha'ing Pidgey or summin ... it kicks u in the nags b4 uve even got started and u jst rly wanna get going and u have to waste time lvl'ing a stupid rat or sparrow. All i wanna do is make pikachu the uber greatest and get him thru to the end but i no i cant cos i g2 make my pidgey great first. Saying that .. i luv this game and when ur past the first boss its a peice of poop.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - pokemon yellow
A very exuting game, totaly different from all the others. With starting off with pikachu and getting lots more exiting new pokemon.Fighting different sorts of trainers and gym leaders and the pokemon league. Over all a very good game I recomend it greatly.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Boring!!!
Don't buy this because it has terrible graphics which make you not wanting to play on it. Fair enough it was good years a go but certainly not now. I would recommend ruby or sapphire or firered or leafgreen.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Pokemon Yellow rocks! But i'm stuck!!!
I was wondering if you knew how to get onto Pikachu's mini games? I don't have a clue! I have pokemon yellow and pokemon stadium but i really have no idea how to get on the mini games! If any one knows, please e-mail me on:

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best?
This game is way the best it is even better than the new ones (crystal green leaf etc) The fact that you get picachu bulbasor charmeleon and squirtle from the start makes this the best all pokemon fans and even people who dont like pokemon but like the game (i.e. me) get the game
