About Pokémon LeafGreen Version

Pokémon LeafGreen Version and Pokémon FireRed Version are a pair of core series Generation III games that are set in the Kanto region. They were released in Japan on January 29, 2004, in North America on September 9, 2004, in Australia on September 23, 2004 and in Europe on October 1, 2004. As the first remakes in the Pokémon franchise, the games revisit the original pair of Pokémon games, Pokémon Red and Green Versions, and so feature all of the characters, plot elements, and challenges of them, but with several important upgrades to bring them up to speed with other Generation III games. The Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter was initially included with the games when they were first released, eliminating the need for Game Link Cables when trading between the two games (and later Pokémon Emerald Version). In later copies, it was sold separately. FireRed and LeafGreen went on to become the second best-selling games of the Game Boy Advance, only behind Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions. They also received Nintendo's Player's Choice awards.

Pokémon LeafGreen Version PC port: quick answers

Do I need to own Pokémon LeafGreen Version?
Yes. FireRedLeafGreenRecomp needs game files from a copy you own. PlayPorted links only to the project page and never to game files.
Is the Pokémon LeafGreen Version PC port finished?
It is in beta: playable, with known issues. Its last update was Jul 2026, and the latest release is v0.0.3.
Which systems does it run on?
Windows.
Is it an emulator?
No. FireRedLeafGreenRecomp translates the original game code into native code, so it runs without an emulator.

  • PlayPorted doesn't run or check this site, and hasn't verified the software it offers. Download and run it at your own risk.
  • You need your own copy of the game. Legitimate projects never give you the game files.
  • If the site looks wrong or hands out game files, report the link and we'll look into it.
