    * Players can now play as a female character, as well as choosing to play as the male character that was default in Generation I.

    * Music has been tuned up to take advantage of the Game Boy Advance's power; however, the themes themselves remain the same.

    * As in all Generation III games, Pokémon now have natures, abilities, genders, and can hold items.

    * Pokémon retain their Generation II and III evolutionary lines (e.g. Golbat can evolve into Crobat), but cannot evolve into these stages until the player has obtained the National Pokédex.

    * Magnemite and Magneton are Electric/Steel, as they were in Generation II as well as Ruby and Sapphire.

    * A new southern region, the Sevii Islands, is accessible, where Generation II Pokémon can be caught.

    * Pokémon can breed in the Pokémon daycare in Four Island as well as still having access to the Pokémon daycare on Route 5.

    * Trainers outdoors can be rebattled using the Vs Seeker.

    * Information on major characters, e.g. Gym Leaders, are stored in the Fame Checker.

    * Pokémon movelists are updated to include moves introduced in Generation II and Generation III.

    * The TM list is shared with other Generation III games.

    * Move tutors become available to teach moves formerly contained in Generation I TMs.

    * The Elite Four can be re-battled and get Generation II Pokémon on their teams in addition to Generation I Pokémon after the Sevii Islands quest has been completed.

    * Version-exclusive Pokémon and wild Pokémon distribution have been altered from the original games to account for new evolutions released in Generation II.

    * Blast Burn, Frenzy Plant, and Hydro Cannon are available as move tutor moves to the Kanto starters' final forms.

    * Deoxys debuts two new forms: Attack Forme (FireRed) and Defense Forme (LeafGreen).

    * Team Rocket has an expanded role in the game's post-Elite storyline, with a new base in the Sevii Islands.

    * Battles with wild legendary Pokémon Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Mewtwo feature a remixed battle theme.

    * In non-Japanese versions, the dialogues are colored, depending if it is from a male or female, being the colors blue and red, respectively. In dialogues from other sources, such as signs, the text remains black.

    * A help feature was added, and can be viewed by pressing the L or R buttons of the console.

    well for one the graphics are different. In fire red you have a lot of special items and a lot more pokemon to catch compared to the original red version. You have a chance to catch the legendary dogs and birds. In the past the pokemon didn't have special abilities example: Gastly has LEVITATE which makes ground moves ineffective. You can use this device called vs seeker which wasn't in the old version that lets you fight old trainers over and over again. And in fire red there's more places to go such as the Sevi islands which you don't see in red

    Source(s): been playing pokemon since i was a kid! lol
