Starting with Red Version, they plan to progress through Pokémon Gold and Silver, Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, and Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire as well.
This event bears some differences from other recent gaming fundraisers; the Pokémon4Life players encourage donators to submit nicknames for Pokémon caught during the playthrough as well as suggestions for teams. Information on how to do this can be found on their website.
