Developed over the course of several years, Red and Green established several standards for later Pokémon games and sequels. They take place in the [[Kanto]] [[region]], with the player having to collect eight [[Gym Badges]] to become the [[Pokémon Champion]] while also completing the [[Pokédex]] by collecting all 151 Pokémon. The game was a commercial success in Japan, which prompted the localization of Red and Green for an international release; the games were then released as [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue]].
