Pokemon Fire Red Cartridge question

[Venusaur]

The FireRed cartridge is supposed to be a red color right? I got a black one from someone. Is it bootleg azn?

 

[SomethingElse]

i would say so, although it could be painted, or replace in a new cartridge, but most likely bootleg

It's definitely bootleg. Japanese Pokemon cartridges are also coloured to their respective games.

If you put that in the description the listing will be removed from eBay. However, a lot of sellers do get away with selling these. Typically, the sellers are from an Asian country, offer the game at a really cheap price, and say it is "Opened but new". From what I've heard, you can actually buy these bootleg games in actual stores in other countries. The bootleg game will work just as a normal one would, but usually the save batteries die fairly quickly making it so that you cannot save your game. The cart is also sometimes slightly larger than normal and can bend important parts in your GBA causing it to malfunction.
