In this post we will deal with classes and subclasses. In mathematics a class is a collection of objects that share the same property. For example, the class of \u201ccan openers\u201d, in this case I don’t care if they are for right-handed, left-handed, manual, electric, or their color, shape, or any other characteristic that differentiates them. But all of these objects share the characteristic of “opening cans”. Thus, a subclass is a class contained in another class. For this reason, a subclass inherits the property of the class, that is, the \u201cleft-handed can openers\u201d is a subclass of the \u201ccan-openers\u201d. In this way, they inherit the characteristic of opening cans, but share a common characteristic (being used with the left hand).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A few months ago I wrote a post about Pok\u00e9mon Red discussing the term conjecture a little and using this game as an example to formulate one (it would be possible to zero the game, that is, defeat all the gyms, Elite4 and its rival, without capturing Pok\u00e9mon or even to treat them as goods, purchasing them in stores or casinos). Within this hypothesis, we showed that this was possible for the early Pok\u00e9mon Bulbasaur and Charmander, but not for Squirtle (if you want to read this post, click here<\/strong><\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n In that sense, we have a class called Pokemon – versions for gameboy and gameboy color. This class includes the following games:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pokemon Red These 7 versions have several common characteristics (command buttons, mobility, combat actions, Pok\u00e9mon moves, types of Pok\u00e9mon, advantages and disadvantages, among others), which makes it possible to include them in this larger class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We can however deal with subclasses of these games, for example based on the amount of Pok\u00e9mon available in each version. We would thus have the class with pok\u00e9mons from 1 to 151 (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver and Crystal) and the subclass with pok\u00e9mons from 1 to 251 pok\u00e9mons (Gold, Silver and Crystal). That is, in this subclass we have the same 151 pok\u00e9mons from the previous class plus 100 pok\u00e9mons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With this idea of \u200b\u200bclasses and subclasses, when we ignore contact with wild pok\u00e9mons and the acquisition of pok\u00e9mons by commerce or casinos, reducing the objective of the game to defeat the gyms, Elite4 and our rival, we can say that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pokemon Class – includes Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal versions; Pokemon Red, Pokemon Green and Pokemon Blue belong to the same subclass. That is, if in the previous post I showed that it was possible to reset Pokemon Red starting with Bulbasaur or Charmander, but not with Squirtle, then this also applies to Pokemon Green and Blue, even though I haven’t played to show it. This is because these three games would present the same characteristics and possibilities for growth when we consider the property of ignoring contact with wild pok\u00e9mons and just adopting pokemons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thus, solving this conjecture for one version, we were able to generalize to the other two versions that belong to this same class. But this does not extend, for example, to the Yellow version, which although it has from Pok\u00e9mon 1 to 151, it has different game characteristics to this applied property, which make this game different from the other 3 versions. Pokemon Yellow is then a subclass of Pokemon games, but it is not in the subclass that we tried. It is actually a subclass independent of the others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another case, which is the subject of this post, refers to Pok\u00e9mon Crystal. The Pok\u00e9mon Gold and Silver versions are subclasses of Pokemon, however the Crystal version is within this subclass. In other words, all the elements present in Gold and Silver are also part of Crystal, however this version has more features than Gold and Silver. What characterizes it as a subclass of this Pokemon class subclass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Applying the conjecture of just adopting in Pok\u00e9mon Crystal we arrive that of the 3 initial choices, just starting with Totodile (a water pok\u00e9mon that looks like a biped alligator) it is possible to reset the stipulated objectives. Proof of this follows in this video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pokemon Green
Pokemon Blue
Pokemon Yellow
Pokemon Gold

Pokemon Crystal<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pokemon (RGB) – includes Red, Green and Blue versions;
Pokemon (Y) – includes only the Yellow version;
Pokemon (GS) – includes Gold and Silver versions;
Pokemon (C) – subclass within the Gold and Silver subclass, includes only the Crystal version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
