Also of note among many other differences includes the capacity to find and capture various Pokémon from outside of the original 151 species.
Furthermore, this game includes the ability to traverse the Sevii Islands, a location not included in any other game besides its sister game, Pokémon Fire Red. For one, players have the opportunity at the beginning of the game to choose to play as a girl instead of a boy, the first time this applies to a game taking place primarily in Kanto ( Pokémon Crystal, a game that does partly take place in the franchises' take on the Kanto region, does allow players to choose to be a girl, but as that game mostly takes place in the Johto region, we aren't counting it here). Pokémon Leaf Green is notably different from the game it is deemed a remake of Pokémon Green in a variety of ways that aren't just cosmetic.
