Editorial Review
While it's basically the same game as the previously released Pokmon Red and Pokmon Blue, Pokmon 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 Pokmon Trainer, with exploration and Pokmon battles (think advanced paper-scissors-rock) factoring heavily into the gameplay. While the game world is the same in all three versions, the Pokmon you encounter vary from version to version; the underlying goal of collecting all 151 Pokmon can only be met by trading Pokmon via Link Cable with another player with a different Pokmon version. (Players can also battle against one another using the Link Cable setup.)

Pokmon Yellow follows the TV cartoon series more closely than the other versions. Your first Pokmon in Yellow is Pikachu, and he travels alongside you as opposed to inside a Pokball (like most Pokmon). 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 Pokmon games before, Pokmon Yellow is the best place to start. But while Pokmaniacs 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

Pros:
Best version yet of the highly addictive Pokmon game Pikachu's moods raise the game's cuteness bar to an all-new level Features new battle modes between players Includes Pikachu's Beach secret game Cons:
Pokmon battles can be repetitive at times New features may not be enough for some Pokmon veterans
