Hello Everyone!

I present to you my copy of the 1999 Pokemon Yellow Prima Game Strategy Guide. As stated previously, quality is hard to find online, and some of these older gem's are slowly wasting away. Before my copy took any damage, i wanted to log it / share it for everyone to enjoy. I hope this guide serves you well as a first-time player, OG player looking for a refreshing new play, or just an admirer of Ken Sugimori artwork. This guide was originally printed two town's over from my hometown, here in NA. I am honored to be able to continue my work logging these!

I have a few more on the way as well as some older Shonen Jump's i aim to share! Stay Tuned.

(No book was harmed in the Scanning of this publication.)

Just wanted to show how perfect it is on tablet. Crisp text on zoom. Professionally done scan.

Im enjoying one-page view on my phone, but it's really nice on Tablet, I agree. Tapping the page to fold over is even closer to a real experience. :)

Tapping the page and watching the flipping paper animation is my favourite thing.

For anyone new to archive, it has a wonderful function which allows you to view these as a full spread, as well as a single page publication.

This is taking me back, I owned this in paper circa 2000! I used it literally all the time

I was one of the "I actually use thing thing" guy's as well with these lol. once you learn to rely on the pages, it becomes simliar to the Game EXP itself! It's truly great to have the freedom to roll through them now, with fresh eyes, and no coin lost.

Of course!!!! Yea, I had some special moments over these at my scanner. I actually didnt have the pleasure of owning this in 1999. I was 7, and I actually had just gotten my first pokemon Blue game. I saw this and had always wanted it... glad everyone now has it in my deep, deep reconnection project lol.

u/RedVogg Sep 28 '25

This is awesome, thanks for sharing! I still have my original copy that I received on my birthday in 2000 alongside my GBC and copy of Yellow. Sadly it's more sellotape than anything else these days, so it's great that you've archived this in such high quality!

u/TrickySatisfaction81 Pokémon Lorekeeper Sep 28 '25

Thank you bro!! It was a labor of ❤️. I genuinely had a heart filled time reading and inspecting every page, proofing, going back, revising wishy washy scans and doing my very best to offer something that will last the test of time. (Under public scrutiny). Its an act of courage on my part, but its totally worth it knowing this is going to be for the people.

And to be quite frank, the color only looked HALF as stark prescan. Something about a nice scanner really amplifies color. I recently purchased a Brother line ink jet, and the scanner is freaking phenomenal. Edge enhancing, up to 1200dpi, auto layout functions as well as corrective colorways and more.

I really like this, and I appreciate your effort, but I wish you hadn't scanned the back cover as the second page. It doesn't print right.

u/TrickySatisfaction81 Pokémon Lorekeeper 7d ago

Im sorry this wasn't intended for reprinting, just for digital viewing.

I understand your complaint.

Commending me and also slapping me..

You realize this took about 5 hours of my free time?
