What programming language was used to develop Pokemon (Red Edition), how long is the code, and how long did the programming take?
I would be very interested to know which language Pokemon Red/Blue was programmed in and how many lines of code were written.
And how long does it take to write something like this? Can you do it on your own, and how long would it take approximately?
Sure, if you have the skills you can do it yourself. Estimates 2-5 years depending on pre-knowledge. There are even people who have developed an operating system alone (TempleOS). As a rule, a person can never develop an operating system alone.
The programming language was very likely just assembler text for the respective CPU.
Only out of this circumstance will the code have been very long.
How long it takes depends on personal experience and your own time, but surely a few months (including a little over a year).
But it depends very strongly on it excessively you test and how many bugs you fix.
And what would you appreciate, how much lines code it was?
The source code for the Red and Blue Edition is available in Assembler on Github, there could be too much to estimate how much it is.

Ah very cool, thank you
However, if only the disasembelt version, the code is better readable.
