Retrospective narratives of the history of Pokémon have observed that Crystal was released at a transitional and uncertain period in the development of the franchise. Writing for Well Played, Arana Judith characterised Crystal as a "melancholic" release that represents "the end of Pokémon's early years (and) original vision," citing several factors including the relative failure of the Mobile System GB, the end of the Game Boy Color life cycle, and the increasing fatigue with the Pokémon franchise. [44] This was reflected by contemporary critics who had predicted that Crystal reflected an "end of the Pokémon craze", [21] with Simon Brew of Game Boy Xtreme stating "the game arrives at a time when some are foretelling the end of the Pokémon phenomenon." [26] Judith noted that "although Ruby and Sapphire versions would eventually prove the longevity of Pokémon, they wouldn’t see release until 2002. According to the general public who were seeing Pokémon merchandise fade from shelves, the Pokémania that had swept those last years of the 20th century was truly on its way out." [44] Similarly, Rhiannon Bevan of TechRaptor noted the game's additions reflected a "certain bravery", observing "Pokémon was explosively popular, but it was too soon to call it a cultural mainstay. ( Crystal) could have been the final chapter in a fad, like many before it. [45] This was the last title to include the "Gotta Catch 'Em All" tagline.

Whereas in Gold and Silver it involves a trip to the Dragon's Den to retrieve the Dragon Fang, it now involves entering the Dragon Shrine within the Den. There, Clair's grandfather and leader of the dragon-user clan quizzes the player on their style of battling. Clair arrives and still refuses to hand over her Badge after the player passes. In response, her grandfather threatens to tell her cousin, Lance, of whom Clair is terrified. If all the questions are answered correctly, the player will receive a Dratini that knows ExtremeSpeed upon returning and speaking with Clair's grandfather. IGN Staff (September 10, 1999).

Circa 2019-, it was documented that a variation of Pokémon Crystal Version exists for Australia with a different ROM and this was overlooked, even by ROM scene groups. This version is based on Rev A (v1.1). It made some subtle changes to Game Corner texts and an undocumented Mobile System GB coding change for Mobile Stadium, without actually removing the slot machines, unlike what became of international HeartGold and SoulSilver; where the slot machines were replaced with Voltorb Flip.
