Pokémon Stadium on the Nintendo 64 was awesome and Pokémon Crystal actually has a mode that is rather similar to that. I know it does not sound like much, but back in 2001 this was actually a huge deal. This is a feature that was so well received that it would become a staple for the series going forward. The Pokémon now have little animations which really do make them feel more lifelike. While that is great, it is the animations that really blew people away. The game does not look a million times better, but there is just a bit more polish to the whole game.

One thing that I feel is better in Pokémon Crystal is the visuals.

So, Pokémon Crystal allowing you to play as a girl was a big deal for the huge female player base that Pokémon had. In the original Pokémon games, you had no choice, but to play as a boy. Pokémon Crystal was actually the first game in the series to allow you to be a girl. So, while for the most part, the story is the same, it does have a few new things here and there. One of which is about the Legendary Pokémon, Suicune which I thought was pretty cool. Now while that is all good (or not that good if you have beaten both Gold and Silver) it does add a few new subplots. You once again have a rival who stole a Pokémon from Professor Elm and you once again need to become the Pokémon grand champion. You once again have to choose between, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile. You once again pick your starter Pokémon from Professor Elm. That is a good thing as the story is pretty much the same in Pokémon Crystal. I really enjoyed the story that Pokémon Gold and Silver told. However, if you do have either of those games, I am not so sure this is worth getting as well. So, with that in mind if you do not have Silver or Gold, I would say this is the version to get. This is not a brand-new Pokémon game, instead, it is an enhanced version of what Gold and Silver offered. It is crazy to think that Pokémon Crystal was released under a year later than Pokémon Gold and Silver were! That is just how popular Pokémon was (and still is) back in 2001.
