5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Pokemon book!
This book was very helpful in playing the game if you are a beginner, or even a seasoned Pokemon expert that needs a map for Mt. Moon or wants to know when Venusaur will learn Solarbeam. It has a complete guide of all the TMs, HMs, moves, items, and all of the Pokemon. A must have! P.S.- A great Christmas present along with Pokemon Yellow!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not much
This is more like an extension of the manuals walkthrough than a very in depth guide. The layout can be confusing as well not always knowing what dialog box is referring to what map. This may be the best guide there is, but it's not very good. It may add more to someone already familiar to the game but for a newbie looking for some help, and basic information such as...

4.0 out of 5 stars Catch all the 3 Versions in a Book, November 22, 2000
By 
This review is from: Pokemon Yellow (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
Decide to buy this book because it serves as a guide to all 3 versions of the Pokemon game (Red, Blue, and Yellow). Though it primarily focuses on the Yellow version, it doesn't lack telling one what he could expect and the differences in the other two.

The Pokedex provided inside is pretty cool too. Besides having a full listing of all the Pokemons, their types, and their learned skills at different levels, it also shows the locations where they could be found, and the TMs they could learn (something quite different from the guide books of Red and Blue).

Personally, I find the big 'tear-out' poster map attached at the back, plus the 2-pages rough outlines of what one needs to achieve at the different towns a very useful quick guide to start the game with.

A worthwhile book if you have yet owned any Red and Blue guides. Else, you might find many contents repeated, though you may still buy it for the poster map and comprehensive Pokedex.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for Pokemon Yellow players, October 22, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Pokemon Yellow (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
This book was great. It went through all the details of the game from getting your starter Pokemon to defeating the Elite Four. It tell you all your option; how high your Pokemon levels should be in certain places, and much more. This is a must have for Pokemon players. It also covers the Red & Blue versions.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Guide, August 1, 2002
By 
Eileen Caprio (Pennsylvania, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pokemon Yellow (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
I purchased this guide after losing the original one from 3 years ago. I found this one much more detailed and a lot more helpful. Instead of flipping around pages to find which Pokemon is caught where then flipping to another page to find out what HM's and TM's it can learn, you can get it all on the page for that Pokemon. Thanks again for another great book.

Sincerely, Eileen Caprio

This may be the best guide there is, but it's not very good. It may add more to someone already familiar to the game but for a newbie looking for some help, and basic information such as which Pokemon show up only once or what each HM does exactly, the Web is proablly a better resource.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great guide!, February 27, 2001
By 
This review is from: Pokemon Yellow (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
I bought this guide because I was stuck. I had not watched the cartoon series, so I was not sure what this game was really about. This guide was really helpful, probably the best game guide I have ever purchased. It is filled with explanations, cute pictures, and tips; the pokedex is informative, and I enjoy checking my Pokemon off the list after I have captured them. The best part of the guide is the tear out map, very handy. If you are a busy student and do not have hours to spend discovering the secrets of this game, don't feel guilty, get this guide!
