Once known as Pokémon X, Pokemon Crystal will be a very interesting addition to the Pokémon library of games. Why? Well, Crystal will take advantage of Nintendo's latest Game Boy gadget, the Mobile Adapter GB. However, I'll talk about that a little later. First, here are some of the features you should expect from the game.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Features/What's New:
Capture Pokemon #251, Celebi.
Choose to play as a boy or girl Pokemon trainer.
Trade Pokémon through a real cell phone.
Play on Pokémon Stadium Gold, Silver & Crystal(Japanese Version)
It will be a Game Boy Color game only.
It will be able to support the Game Boy Printer, Game Link Cable, Infrared Port, Transfer Pack, and Mobile Adapter.
Crystal is much like how Pokemon Yellow (Pikachu Edition) was for Red and Blue. Pokemon Crystal is an upgraded version of Gold & Silver, with some nice improvements.
There won't be any new Pokémon because that would mess up the ability to play Crystal on Pokémon Stadium Gold, Silver & Crystal.
The most exciting thing people are going to like is the fact that the mysterious Celebi can be captured in Crystal.After receiving the GS Ball you can fight Celebi in the Ilex Forest where the shrine is.
Another new feature is when you change routes or enter a city. At the bottom of the screen a wooden-like sign will pop up telling you what route or city you are in.
Some Pokémon learn new moves, like Dugtrio knows Tri-Attack and Eevee learns Baton Pass.
The Goldenrod Pokemon Center has grown into a huge Pokemon Communication Center where you can get information about the Mobile Adapter.
Suicune is a major player in the game. Once you waken up the Legendary Beasts in Ecruteak City, you can see Suicune on the map when you're walking around. It will run away, through, once you approach.
The Unown Puzzles have changed.
Some Pokemon can be found in different places than in G/S.

What is new however is pretty neat. For one, instead of playing as a male character, players will have the choice of playing as a male or a female character. Many female players will definitely like this addition that has been neglected to be put in any of the games.
In addition to the new trainer, there have been a lot of graphical improvements. Nothing to be amazed about, but it does add a little more improvement to an already great game. When you go into a battle, the opposing Pokemon will animate when it appears. Nothing that fancy, but it improves the previously still battle screens. Since the addition of these animations, you can expect to see Crystal as a Game Boy Color game only. Check out our PictureDex for Crystal animations. Also improved are the towns and houses. They look a lot better since Nintendo made this an Color ONLY game.
Now what exactly is this Mobile Adapter GB going to do for the game? Well the Mobile Adapter will let players link up their Game Boy through the game link port with a cellular phone. With this link up, players can now battle friends while being several houses if not cities away. This is the perfect addition since about everyone in Japan has a cell phone, and unlike here in the US, can afford it since it is a lot cheaper. However, since the cell phone craze hasn't hit the US as big as it has in Japan, Nintendo of American will most likely not release this feature in the US. Nintendo of America could possibly design a modem like add-on which would virtually do the same thing as a cell phone could, just not as mobile.
Other possibilities with the Mobile Adapter will let players to possibly access hard to get Pokémon characters through trading with friends, or possibly Nintendo officials. Perhaps those Shiny Pokémon won't be as hard to get now ;)
The Mobile Adapter is expected to come out in Japan in January 2001, and Pokémon Crystal has already been released in Japan on December 14, 2000. No other release dates have been set outside of Japan. |
