Neglected Blue I had been a hardcore Pokemon fan ever since the release of Pokemon Red and Blue Versions for the Game Boy. I had bought every Pokemon Game that came out up until the releases of Soul Silver and Heart Gold. By then I had grown tired of replaying the Pokemon games, and I didn’t really want to wait another year for a new region to come out, so I just stopped playing. I sold all of my Pokemon games except for Pokemon Blue Version, which I had lost several years back. I never bothered looking for it considering I had four other Kanto games. A few years later, I was moving out of my old house and while cleaning up I uncovered my old Blue Version. This was a great chance for some Pokemon nostalgia, so I went out and bought a used Game Boy Color for 15 bucks. I got back home and began playing the game. When the title screen loaded up the trainer with a Squirtle appeared. I had gotten used to playing the full color games so the entirely blue-tinted screen was pretty foreign to me for a few minutes. I pressed the Start button and it came to the Options screen. Since I was one for beating the game quickly and not catching ‘em all or doing any of that other junk, I selected Continue instead of New Game. The trainer name was Red (I liked the original names) and had 6 Badges and clocked 5:07 for my time. Upon entering the game, I saw I was standing outside the Fuchsia City Gym. I checked my Pokemon team. I had a Level 37 Blastoise, Level 26 Jolteon, Level 30 Lapras, Level 33 Hitmonlee, Level 30 Snorlax, and a Level 40 Zapdos. A pretty good team all in all. Next, I checked to see if any of them knew Surf, hell, if I even had Surf at all. I wanted Surf so that, obviously, I could get to Cinnabar Island. Sure enough, Lapras knew Surf. What was strange was that I started hearing the Cinnabar Island music and seeing the color change before I even saw the shore of the Island. This made me stop and think. It reminded me of when you get to Cianwood City in Gen II. I shrugged it off as a glitch in the game, but it still bothered me. Before I even got to Cinnabar Island, I started thinking about the Missingno Glitch. I checked to see if Zapdos knew Fly and it did. I flew to Viridian City and had the old man teach me how to catch Pokemon. Afterwards, I flew to Cinnabar Island to carry out the glitch. This is where things got crazy. Arriving in Cinnabar Island, I saw that all the houses were gone and there were lots of hills and ridges. I saw Blue’s sprite standing there and I went up to talk to him. A dialogue box appeared. “Oh, RED, gosh you look bad. If you’re looking for the Gym, it had to be moved to the Seafoam Islands. There volcano here erupted.” This was incredibly crazy. This was exactly what happens in Gen II when you go to Cinnabar Island. Except for the “Gosh you look bad” part. That puzzled me. I Surfed over to the Seafoam Islands and sure enough, there was the Gym. Then I remembered something I saw at Cinnabar Island. I couldn’t remember it exactly at the time. I flew back to Cinnabar Island and there was another building other than the Pokemon Center. The Pokemon Mansion. I went inside of it and after about 2 steps a Level 45 Ditto appeared. I sent out my Blastoise and selected Run. It said “You cannot run away”. I was pretty sure it was supposed to say “Can’t escape”, not that. I decided I would try and catch the Ditto instead. I used Hydro Pump, but it said “It didn’t affect wild DITTO”. The Ditto Transformed into Blastoise and on the next turn it One Hit KO’ed my Blastoise. This happened the same way with each of my Pokemon. Ditto uses Transform, my attack doesn’t affect it, and Ditto uses the same attack to OHKO me. After my last Pokemon, Zapdos, fainted, I expected it to say that RED whited out and bring me to the Pokemon Center. Instead, Ditto Transformed once again, this time into Red. Red’s sprite looked like it was buried alive and had worms poking out of him. Now I knew what Blue had meant by what he said earlier. The battle ended and when the game returned to the overworld I had no control over it. A dialogue box appeared. “RED: Why did you do this to me? Why did you abandon me and leave me to rot? All of my Pokemon…” I was completely freaked out. The game seemed to be speaking to me! I regained control of the game. I started pressing random buttons, but the only one that worked was the Start button. Wondering what Red had meant by “All my Pokemon…” I clicked on Pokemon. There were none of my original party, only a Red sprite with the name, RED. His status: DEAD.
