I'll admit my memories of this game are hazy now, with my main recollections being of night-time car journeys, relying on the street lamps to see what I was doing, and an embarassing moment of finally catching Ho-Oh, changing my mind about giving it a nickname but not knowing how to cancel, so panicking and naming it "Ho-Ho" accidentally.

It expands greatly on the original games with 100 new creatures to try and collect, and having the end-game objective of going back through Kanto again was mind-blowing at the time. This and Silver are key games in the Game Boy Colour's line up for a reason.
