Ok, I tried looking online and am not finding anything. But is this a legitimate version of Pokémon Crystal? It looks to me like it checks out and works flawless, but what do you think? I'm pretty sure it's legit, but never hurts to ask

I got money second hand which is why I'm asking. Nothing I looked at online has been the least helpful.

Look at the backside of the cartridge, can you see any copyright for nintendo that is ON the card, not the case? I can clearly see mine.

Probably holding it stupidly but no I can't. It'd be on the green part right?
I see something in my Pokémon yellow but nothing on crystal. It's says Nintendo Game Boy like it's supposed to

yes it should be in gold colored font, mine has it. If yours don't id probably isn't real.

Finally replaced Pokémon Crystal. Just beat Sprout Tower and now it's first badge time. Staying up late tonight for sure

It works perfectly though. I was grateful just to be able to get my hands on a legitimate copy of this game. I thought maybe the previous owner had taken the cartridge apart and soldered a new battery in it, hence the crack. Already on the radio tower mission.

Just out of curiosity but why do you buy the Japanese games too? I know Pokémon came from Japan, but... I don't think I'd get any Pokémon games in any language other than English. Although personally I liked how the 3DS games came with the option to pick a language to play in. Kind of cool to play in English and dabble in other languages to experience differences

I just thought they were cool. Japanese people take great care of their games and consoles. They were dirt cheap and worked great.

Pokemon Yellow and Pokemon Crystal were the first pokemon games I played and the ones that got me hooked the most of the ones I've tried. Pokemon Crystal was my favourite. I don't know if it is because the pokemon were manageable, my age or if they are actually just that nicely balanced.
I am happy you were able to get a proper legitimate copy of Crystal.
