'''I/O''' (input/output) refers to how a computer communicates with the outside world. In the Game Boy/Color's Z80-based processor, registers for the input/output range between 0xFF00 to 0xFF70.
The Game Boy/Color has included a huge amount of communication peripherals. One of the most commonly used is the Link Cable; which inspired the Pokémon concept as Satoshi Tajiri was a bug catcher during his childhood, [http://lavacutcontent.com/sugimori-masuda-developer-interview/ and there were also inspirations from [Menko card games], and kaijuu media such as Kamen Rider, Ultraman. Additionally, the Game Boy Color (but not the Game Boy Advance) included a built-in infrared port.
The Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal communicated over the Internet using a mobile phone and the Mobile GB Adapter, but the Mobile GB Adapter fell into relative obscurity and never left Japan.
