Some Pokemon Blue on the GBC on a rainy Sunday

I assume you are running a ROM hack of some kind, because pretty sure Blue doesn't look that colorful on the GBC?
- The first clue is that's not a real game boy
  
  Real gameboy, but with an IPS screen mod, shell replacement too as the IPS screens are a little larger than the original requiring some cutting if you don’t. I did the same to my OG 1998 atomic purple GBC.

  Yeah this is what I was thinking of, it definitely seems to fit the bill.

  Red and Blue predated the GBC but if you played it on one it would tint each area a different colour based on the area. However it wasn't until Gold and silver that more varied pallets would be used. This game has an IPS patch applied to it to give it similar colours.
- Yeah the entire game was shades of blue, except Lavender Town (IIRC), which was lavender.
- The Super Gameboy for the SNES let you play Pokemon red and blue in color. It looked similar to the screenshot shown.
  
  For Pokémon Blue the Super GameBoy definitely looks better than the GBC/GBA/GameBoy Player on GC, but not as good as what OP posted: https://youtu.be/U0xLy6-_570?si=IZl_jj3L0W8azS-i
Soooo how exactly did you go about doing this?

Yeah this is definitely not vanilla Pokémon Blue, looks to me like Blue DX. Good Screen Mod though.
With backlight! Nice mod.
Shit that’s pretty
Beautiful GBC.
