So which version is the best to begin with? (Or for someone
who doesn't know many other Pokemon Gameboy players, so the trading
aspect might not be that important?) Jeremy, do you have any suggestions?

I've seen screenshots, and Pokemon Stadium looks *beautiful*! And
so it's tempting, but it looks like a pure-D fighting game, and
fighting games (of the traditional Street Fighter II martial arts kind)
tend to bore me. As I understand it, there is at least some RPG
elements involved in the game-boy game, whereas Pokemon Stadium
is purely an arena for you to fight pokemon against each other. Which
might be fun to watch, but I'm not sure of the long term play value,
at least not with a game-boy pokemon cartridge to go along with it.
