About this build
Pokémon Red and Blue running in the browser, built from the pret/pokered disassembly on EmulatorJS (gambatte). Every picture — tilesets, sprites, all 151 Pokémon, trainers, font and menus — has been redrawn by the clean-room pipeline from coarse facts, so the build ships no original ROM or artwork. Switch between Red and Blue on the game page.
