Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow Home
Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow were released between 1996 and 2000 for the Game Boy, and again in 2016 for the 3DS Virtual Console. The original cartridges are compatible with each other, as well as Gold, Silver, Crystal, and the Pokémon Stadium games. The Virtual Console releases can trade with each other as well as Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and can send Pokémon to the 3DS app Pokémon Bank, which could then send Pokémon to any game released after (and including) Sun and Moon.
The first 151 Pokémon are obtainable in these games.
