5.0 out of 5 stars EXTREMLY great book!
The maps were great! It helped me a bunch, especially with Rock Tunnel and Victory Road. Although I have noticed some flaws in the book such as calling the legendary birds Articuno and Moltres as Articuro And Moltos, labeling the power plant's as Victory Road (although they were seperated by a couple of pages), and on the maps the pokemart was labeled SHOP instead of...

2.0 out of 5 stars Very dissapointing
I like the book, but i wish it had the red and blue versions in different books. I only have the blue version and it gets confusing. It also has numbers on the maps(ex. 1,2,etc..) but it doesn't tell you what they are. This is why i gave it 2 stars. There an official book by Nintendo that is much better.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXTREMLY great book!, October 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Pokemon: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
The maps were great! It helped me a bunch, especially with Rock Tunnel and Victory Road. Although I have noticed some flaws in the book such as calling the legendary birds Articuno and Moltres as Articuro And Moltos, labeling the power plant's as Victory Road (although they were seperated by a couple of pages), and on the maps the pokemart was labeled SHOP instead of MART. Still the listings for every pokemon with a picture, the type(s), where you can find each in which version, what it learns when, and what TM's and HM's it is compatable with are very,very,very helpful. If you are a pokemon master in training I suggest you get this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars This definately helped me!, July 17, 2000
This review is from: Pokemon: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
After getting stuck in my Blue game I was wondering when a Playguide for Blue/Red was gonna be released. Well here it is! And it's a great guide! It's got everything you can think of, including maps, stats on your fave Pokémon and info on all the TMs & HMs. What more could you ask for? I give this 5 out of 5. It gets it straight away!

5.0 out of 5 stars You can't go wrong with this guide by your side!, September 19, 1999

This review is from: Pokemon: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
This book is the best Pokemon guide I've read. It's better than the "Pokemon Trainer's Survival Guide."

"Pokemon: Prima's Official Strategy Guide" will make it easier and more fun to play either the blue or red version. The easy-to-read maps help you find your way through Pokemon Island.

The book has a section called "All the Skills You Ever Need to Know" that tells you the best attacks as well as which attacks your Pokemon should forget. Another section called "Items Galore" tells you which objects to toss and which ones to keep. There's also a very handy Pokemon Check-List.

This guide will help you catch 'em all.

5.0 out of 5 stars All you need to beat the game!, June 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Pokemon: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
The book helped me beat the game. I was prepared for everything that was thrown at me. It helped me choose the type of pokemon I wanted by seeing the abilities that they learn. Also where to find that pokemon and what and when they evolve. Possibly the greatest strategy guide for the pokemon game!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A VERY, VERY GOOD BOOK. IT HELPED ME BEAT THE GAME, August 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Pokemon: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
The moment I borrowed this book from my friend , I found it to be the best guide that I have ever read. The information was very accurate and the maps were beautiful. Not to mention the awesome colour. There were some errors however. I states that you can find a Pokemon called Lucky in the Unknown Dungeon, but they really ment Chansey. Also the Unknown Dungeon map is completely wrong. There are also many spelling errors and the pages fall apart very easily. I think that they should have spent some more time spell checking the book and doing one complete run through to check for accuracy and errors before it was put out in the stores. Over all I thought I thought that it was a great piece of advice and that I couldn't have gotten along without it. Their Pokedex was amazing with all the information that you'd ever need to become a Pokemon Master. It was very creative and not to mention very organized. My sincere thanks to all those great people who put this amazing book together.I strongly recommend anyone who has the game to either purchase or borrow this fine book. Thanks a ton, Daniel Valadares Oakville,Ontario CANADA

A Kid's Review
Pokemon Return of the Squirtle Squad

Would you like to be saved by the Squirtle Squad? In this book the squad saves all the Pokemon from Team Rocket. I love this book because Ash thinks Squirtle is the best pet.

This review is from: Pokemon: Prima's Official Strategy Guide (Paperback)
Prima's guides are the only guide books I ever buy and this is One of the best. Featuring a full Pokedex at the end detailing when each pokemon evolves and what moves they learn and when.

Even if you have already completed the game you should have a copy of this to keep as a reference if nothing else.
