Pokémon FireRed Version is an enhanced remake of the 1996 role-playing video game Pokémon Red Version. It was developed by Game Freak, and published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance. FireRed was first released in Japan in January 2004 and in North America and Europe in September and October 2004 respectively. The game is part of the third generation of the Pokémon video game series and holds the distinction (along with LeafGreen Version) of being the first enhanced remakes of previous games within the franchise. The game has compatibility with the Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter, which originally came bundled with the game. Nearly two years after its original release, Nintendo re-marketed it as a Player's Choice title.

Pokémon FireRed takes place mostly in the fictional region of Kanto. This is one distinct region of many in the Pokémon world, which includes varied geographical habitats for the Pokémon species, human-populated towns and cities, and routes between locations. Some areas are only accessible once players acquire a special item or one of their Pokémon learns a special ability. Near the end of the plot, the protagonist is able to venture to the Sevii Islands, a new area not present in the original Red and Blue games. The Sevii Islands are an archipelago of seven islands and contain Pokémon normally exclusive to the Johto region, as well as several post-game missions. After the aforementioned missions on the Sevii Islands are completed, the ability to trade with Ruby and Sapphire for Hoenn-exclusive Pokémon becomes available.

The silent protagonist of FireRed is a child who lives in a small town named Pallet Town. After players start a journey and venture alone into tall grass, a voice warns them to stop. Professor Oak, a famous Pokémon researcher, explains to the player that such grass is often the habitat of wild Pokémon, and encountering them alone can be very dangerous. He takes the player to his laboratory where they meet Oak's grandson, another aspiring Pokémon Trainer. The player and their rival are both instructed to select a starter Pokémon for their travels. The rival then challenges them to a Pokémon battle with their newly obtained Pokémon and continues to battle the player at certain points throughout the game.
