Since when did the blue box version of games become the most popular ones?

I've always chosen the blue versions, not actually on purpose but because I base my decision on version exclusives and those ones happened to have the best ones. The only exception is Platinum, because Diamond and Pearl were both shiiiiit

Makes sense.

I do wonder if most people go with the color of the box, or just the cover legendary?

Who would choose Xerneas over based Yveltal?

I've always picked the Blue versions, largely because I just greatly prefer the color blue. Though I've noticed most of the time I luck out and most of my preferred exclusives end up on the Blue version, anyhow.

Since always? "Blue" games are the superior version of Pokemon in every way. Box mascots, version exclusives, etc.

>>27322278
Also yeah, I would pick Diamond if a 3rd version of Sinnoh never got released. But Platinum is much better

But Red vastly outsold Blue. Nobody talks about Blue, ever.

I know Silver outsold Gold though, because muh Lugia Pokemon the Movie 2000.

After that, I thought the red box versions were the ones that were the most popular.

It's the top billing version yes, but not the red box version.

Remember that Sun and Omega Ruby are the top-billing versions, yet theyre apparently being outsold by Moon and Alpha Sapphire.

Whats wrong with that?

I was thinking of buying S/M digitally next time around. It just makes more sense. If you got your 3DS with you, you'll always have the game with you too since it's not bound to a cartridge. You could have another game on the cartridge and still be able to play Pokemon whenever you want.

Yeah, digital has that disadvantage that it's not resealable.

I wanna go digital, but Amazon is gonna have it for like $32 or something when it comes out. Hard deal to pass up.

I have only gone completely red with gen 3. Maybe I should have bought Y... but I got AS since I had Ruby.

Guess I'm getting the Pearl remake.

Blue has the best exclusives. Arcanine is the only worthwhile Red exclusive (maybe Scyther, too), whereas Blue has Weepinbell, Ninetails, Sandslash, and Pinsir, all great mons.

Do you want to catch them all, literally, or are you satisfied with what you have available right now and will catch them all when sun and moon come around?

Do you want to use the ORAS megas?

If you dont care for those two reasons, dont get the game honestly. Especially not with 4 months to go. Either the games are meaningless, or you'll want to spend way more than 4 months diving deep into it

Yes, but Reshiram is a fire-type. Zekrom is Dragon/Electric but his skin looks more blue-ish, so it feels more like a blue box legendary.

They really did a good job trolling the whole red/blue box thing with Black and White 1 though.
Black and White 2 makes it easier to know which is which.

I would probably want to catch them all. Perhaps I should work my way up if the time is available. Start with X and move on to the next once from there.

One thing you've overlooked is that people are buying the counterpart game and they originally picked the true Red version.
So it may not be a case of one outselling the other but the other being owned by everyone and their mother.

Just look at the protags after Gen 3. Male trainer is wearing blue instead of the traditional red.

Ash wears blue.
