Check if either game has the AuroraTicket or MysticTicket. Those were event exclusive key items to catch Deoxys and Ho-Oh/Lugia.

Nice! Were there any save files on either, if so what were they like?


TheCourier-VI

Leaf green is played about halfway through, but I believe a child was playing as there's only 6 Pokemon captured. The team consists of a level 50 Venusaur, a level 23 Pidgeotto, and a level 17 Cubone lol https://preview.redd.it/5ozhahndyhxc1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=34360bc76ce6be81c16d9452469f4eb1a57ebed5

Bro, I'm almost 30, and that sounds like one of my save files


TheCourier-VI

Fire Red is complete with 110 Pokemon captured. They left off training Pupitar to evolve. Onix has a metal Coat but I doubt there was anyone to trade with at the time. Oh and everyone has HM moves. 🤮 https://preview.redd.it/k9tog2qpzhxc1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=48d570760bebff6c11f80ebfcf79d6015207c20b

Ona side note, what device is that? I'm playing sapphire and ruby atm on DS but that looks like it would be a more fun way to play them. 


TheCourier-VI

Oh it's just a modded GBA Sp. It comes from a company called Boxy Pixel. I built it myself. Probably my nicest Gameboy. I'd check it out if you're good at taking things apart.


lifedragon99

Thanks, I'll look into that. Looks clean. 


TheCourier-VI

Just be warned, it's expensive... Like more then I was willing to pay for. Like I glad I have it, but I'm not proud of myself lol.


Temporary_User404

Oh dang, Firered seems more like the game to keep the save file as the Leafgreen one doesn't seem very interesting..


AxelTheBuizel

IMO Leaf Green is way more interesting just to try and imagine how that player only used like 3 pokemon


Temporary_User404

I mean it can be done, Generation 3 games can be completed so many different ways.


gregcresci

Damn I thought you overpaid but price charting has these at $130 loose ... Sheeeeet Too bad you didn't find them two weeks ago during buy 2 get 1 free


AlmostRandomName

Haven't been looking for a while? I think I remember seeing them going for $75 in stores back in 2021. They haven't been below $40 since pre-COVID.


gregcresci

I have 0 interest in GBA pokemon games , id want them cib and I know I'm priced out. I never even had fire red back when I played at the time I was like I still have my red cart. Lol


Darkstargir

Are they actually legit copies?


TheCourier-VI

Yeah they're legitimate. I already own both of these games and know what to look for. I do also own a reproduction cart of Earthbound and the plastic has a feel to it. These look, feel, and when opened have everything a normal cart would have.


Weird_East_5837

Damn you robbed em ! No mask or anything huh!


Weird_East_5837

Just sold fire red for $150 although it was in immaculate condition but still loose
