Pokémon (Series) | FireRed/LeafGreen for Switch

[Dragon Lord]

^ Super late reply but that's a noppers from me.

Though after playing LeafGreen again and now playing through Let's Go Eevee, I am beginning to get a real itch for Pokemon again, so I am considering going back and playing some of the titles that I skipped. Or at least the ones I can still get for a reasonable price.

Those titles would be:

-Black/White 2
-Sun/Moon
-Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon
-Sword/Shield
-Scarlet/Violet

To my surprise, copies of Sun/Moon are still on Amazon for a decent price. Sub $50, which considering the fact that you can't get these games outside of physical copies any more, is a real big surprise. So I might go ahead and scoop up Moon. Ultra Moon is also only $55 on Amazon as well, which considering it is in the same boat as Sun/Moon, I'm very surprised it's not a lot more and I might go ahead and snatch that up while I still can.

Unfortunately Black 2/White 2 are not reasonable, being priced at $200+ for a copy, so sadly I may have to resort to the forbidden method to be able to play that one.

But hey, considering I've been skipping Pokemon games for multiple generations and I can still get 4/5 gens that I skipped for reasonable prices, I'll take it.

For those curious, the versions I'd go with are: Moon, Ultra Moon, Sword ('cause Sif), Violet.

EDIT: Turns out the copies of Ultra Moon that are only around $50 are the UAE versions of the game. While they do work on North American systems, having the dot on them that lists the UAE countries would annoy me because none of my other games have it, so it would look out of place. So I'll probably just go ahead and pay the $70-$80 needed to buy an actual North American copy of Ultra Moon instead.


UPDATE:

So just an update on my quest to collect these games, I've managed to snag three of them so far. I got a sealed copy of Moon on eBay for $42.99 and then snagged Violet from Target for $45.99 (used $32 in PayPal rewards so only paid like $18 out of pocket after taxes). Then today I saw a listing for a factory sealed, non-UAE copy of Ultra Moon on eBay for $50. It came with a hefty $15 shipping fee on it, but even after that, it was still $10-$20 cheaper than any other sealed, non-UAE copy of the game on eBay. While still a bit of a hefty price to pay for it, I was very willing to go through with it for my collection purposes. That just leaves getting Sword left, which I'm going to try to wait to find a copy on sale for a decent price.

Sadly at this point, Black 2 is likely never going to happen.
