Back In My Youth I Was A Pokémon Master

Back in my youth me and my three brothers had the first generation Pokémon Red and Blue on the Game Boy, two Red and two Blue (I had Red even though my favourite Pokémon is Squirtle). We managed to get all 150 Pokémon without using cheats by trading and then trading back to complete all the data in our Pokédex! Ah, but what about Mew? Well, I actually have a legitimate Mew for the FireRed version from a Pokémon event I went to! However, I'm not so sure I could complete the Pokédex nowadays! Also, I would never do the trading trick with someone I didn't trust, they would blatently clone it with a cheat cartridge and then give you back the fake one!
