Hello, one question. I have buy a Pokémon Rote Edition (Red German) as Prototype.
It looks like a standart release with lable and the red color case.

On the lable is in-punched the number 00, and someone say, that this is a Prototype.
My normal Red Edition has the number 09 in-punched on the lable.

Strange is, when I play it, all Pokémon are broken (glitched). They are only squares, and you can't see them. And the first big persons, where you must give them names are too only squares. But it plays fine. You can play, but not see the Pokémons when you fight.
And you can't save. It say, that it has saved, but next time all is gone.

So is this a Prototype (a Beta Version, which is not complete)? Or just a broken cartridge with the number 00?
Stand the in-punched for somethink like Prototype or release date?
