Rating: 4.6/5

This is the Korean version of Pokemon Gold. Pocket Monsters Geum(known in USA and Europe as Pokemon Gold) is the Generation II game of the Pokemon main series. This game was featuring Pokemon from the Kanto region and Pokemon from the Johto region. Those are the Generations I and II Pokemon. You play as a Pokemon Trainer. The player begins his journey from New Bark Town, running an errand for Professor Elm to Mr. Pokémon's house to discover what he was so excited about. Elm supplies the player with one of three Pokémon, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, or Totodile, for this errand. After Mr. Pokémon's discovery turns out to be an Egg, the player returns to New Bark, only to find that a suspicious red-haired boy seen lurking outside of Elm's lab earlier has stolen one of Elm's Pokémon— the one that the player's choice is weak to, coincidentally. Upon defeating him and returning to New Bark, the player gives the name of the boy (the player can choose any name, provided it fits under the seven-character limit; his name defaults to Silver) to a police officer who has come to investigate the incident. Elm is amazed by the Egg and insists on studying it, allowing the player to keep the Pokémon they traveled with as a starter Pokémon. From here, he encourages the player to journey across Johto and challenge the eight Gym Leaders,Falkner, Bugsy, Whitney, Morty, Chuck, Jasmine, Pryce, and Clair, and eventually the Pokémon League(though this is a long way off). With the first Gym in nearby Violet City, the player heads off on their adventure.
