The first installments of the Pokémon franchise hit the Game Boy in 1996 in Japan (as Red and Green; see below), in 1998 in North America and 1999 in most of the rest of the world. Taking place in a part of the world called Kanto, based on the Japanese region of Kanto, the plot is simple: you, an eleven-year-old with a baseball cap, are offered your very first Pokémon by Professor Oak, the local authority on Pokémon. He gives you a choice of three different types: Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle. His own grandson, your long-time Rival, gets second pick, and takes advantage of this to snag whichever one happens to be strong against your chosen partner.In exchange for your first Pokémon, Oak wants you to run an errand for him: travel around the region and collect as many different Pokémon as you can, recording all of them in your Pokédex. Of course, along the way, you're more than welcome to challenge the eight Pokémon Gyms, collect their badges, and take on the Elite Four in hopes of becoming the Champion of the Pokémon League. Then there's the emerging threat of Team Rocket, a proudly evil organization that uses Pokémon for its own selfish ends. Somebody's gonna have to deal with them, too — and who better than an eleven-year-old and his team of trained monsters?While the game's Competitive Balance is undeniably broken and glitches abound...it's Pokémon.It should be noted that in Japan, the first two games were released as Red and Green. Blue was released later as a third version, with a bit of a graphical improvement over the originals. For the international releases, the names Red and Blue were used. Although the Japanese Blue provided the graphics, codebase and game script for translation, the Japanese Red and Green provided the wild and version-exclusive Pokémon for the international Red and Blue respectively. Aside from its codebase, this makes the Japanese Blue the only main series game to lack an international release.As evidence of its incredible popularity, Pokémon Yellow was later released as a fourth version in Japan in 1998, and as a third international version in 1999. Yellow took elements from the first season of the anime and transported them back into the games, however loosely. Instead of picking one of the usual trio, a wild Pikachu ends up as your starter, and follows you everywhere rather than getting into the usual Poké Ball. The familiar Team Rocket trio also show up, although Meowth acts as a normal mon as opposed to an equal member to Jessie and James, acting as the third member in their party alongside Ekans/Arbok and Koffing/Weezing.After a successful run, Red, Blue, and Yellow were followed by the Game Boy Color-enhanced (though they can still be played on a previous incarnation of the Game Boy, as well as later ones) Pokémon Gold and Silver, taking place three years after Red became champion and featuring a kid from Johto, a region west of Kanto, the return of Team Rocket, and improved the graphics that Yellow didn't (back sprites, etc.).Jump ahead a couple gens, and Red and Blue reappeared in the form of their Video Game Remakes on the Game Boy Advance: FireRed and LeafGreen. These allowed players to relive the classic games with many of the new benefits, tweaks, and balances of the second and third generations, though it took some Retconning here and there, and added in some new areas to explore after finishing the familiar challenge(s).These games have received two animated adaptations. The first one is the first season of Pokémon: The Original Series. The second one is the anime special Mini Series titled Pokémon Origins, which aired on October 2, 2013 in Japan (10 days prior to the release of the tie-in games Pokémon X and Y) and November 2013 in the United States. This miniseries essentially serves as a more accurate depiction of the plot of Red and Blue, being a Truer to the Text Anime of the Game in comparison to the main Pokémon anime.On November 12th, 2015, it was announced that Red, Blue, and Yellow would be making their way to the Nintendo 3DS's Virtual Console in the eShop in celebration of the franchise's 20th Anniversary. Trading and battling with other players was retained by modding them to work with the system's local wireless functionality, while the Restore Points option is disabled. Pokémon caught in the Virtual Console versions can also be transferred to future mainline Pokémon games, starting with 2016's Pokémon Sun and Moon, via Pokémon Bank. They were released on February 27th, 2016, exactly 20 years after their release in Japan.As of May 29th, 2018 a third set of Kanto games were announced, this time being enhanced remakes of Pokémon Yellow, called Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. It is available on the Nintendo Switch and features compatibility with Pokémon GO.Another detail worth noting is that many of the tropes listed under Red and Blue's category also apply to Yellow, FireRed, and LeafGreen.Random trivia: the games were developed on Sun's SPARCstation 1 computer; four or five units were used in their development.

Professor Oak has battle data programmed in and can be battled with cheats or glitches. His Pokémon are even stronger than the champion, seemingly supporting Agatha's claim that he is a Retired Badass of a trainer.

Secret A.I. Moves
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_11311505
comment
Secret A.I. Moves: There are a couple instances where trainers have Mons with moves they cannot legitimately learn or shouldn't be able to have yet. In particular, all the trainer Gyarados you fight will know Hydro Pump even when far below the level requirement to learn Hydro Pump (due to a technicality where Gyarados is programmed to also know Hydro Pump at level 1, and the movesets of trainer Pokémon functioned like wild Pokémon in that they have the last four moves the Pokémon is programmed to naturally know at their level), and Lance's Dragonite knowing Barrier, a move which it has never been able to legitimately learn even in subsequent generations (though due to this move not being that useful in general and what was described in the aformentioned A.I. Breaker section, this just does him more harm than good).

The Artifact
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e
comment
The Artifact: One NPC still says her old line from the originals, wondering what Pokémon would look like if they had distinct genders... despite them having them since the second generation.note In her defense, Pokémon having distinct appearances between genders would be introduced in Generation IV. Altering Cave, a cave to the north of Six Island where you find nothing but low-level Zubat, was meant to work in tandem with Mystery Gift, where a player could visit kiosks at specific Nintendo events to replace the cave's standard encounters with any one of a set of Generation II Pokémon that were otherwise not available in the third generation.note Namely Mareep, Aipom, Pineco, Shuckle, Teddiursa, Houndour, Stantler and Smeargle No events to alter the encounters in the gave were ever hosted because its function was rendered redundant two months before the game even launched with the release of Pokémon Colosseum, which allows you to catch all of the Pokémon that would have been available in the Altering Cave. Even more weirdly, Emerald also includes an Altering Cave despite that by the time it launched they'd already decided that they would do nothing with it, as all of the encounters that would have been available through events were added to the regular game (Smeargle can be found in a cave in the Battle Frontier, all the rest were added to the Safari Zone).

Heroic Mime: Played with. You never hear your trainer speak (in the overworld, that is; your trainer is implied to be plenty chatty in battles, since you'd at least be calling out the name of the Pokémon you deploy and they'd need to get orders on what move to use somehow), but attempting to talk to the "Copycat" girl in Saffron City produces dialog, subtitled as your own, of a one-sided conversation; it's the Copycat's dialog, mimicking the things the trainer implicitly said to her.

Early Game Hell
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_1527d90d
comment
Early Game Hell: The most difficult part of the game is the early part up until you beat Misty, the 2nd gym leader. In terms of Pokémon, you're limited to your starter, Crutch Character bug Pokémon (if you bother to grind up their levels), and Com Mons such as the early-game bird Pokémon and Rattata, with Nidoran the only good non-starter Pokémon line available before Cerulean. There are also only a limited number of trainer battles, meaning you'll be low on money and won't be able to afford many Potions and status-healing items, while you will have to grind mostly against weak wild Pokémon. Viridian Forest is a blatant Noob Cave full of very weak Bug Pokémon you'll stomp easily regardless of what you use, but you run the constant risk of being poisoned by Weedle's Poison Sting, and as your Pokémon have such low total HP, the gradual HP drain of 1 point every few steps becomes dangerous if you don't have an Antidote. Brock will be a breeze if you start with Squirtle or Bulbasaur, but will be more challenging to a Charmander trainer (though a few Embers each can floor both of Brock's Pokémon with little trouble as long as you don't damage Onix while the latter is using Bide). Then you get to Mt. Moon, a labyrinthine multi-level cave full of trainers, Geodude (who will resist the Normal-type moves most of your low-level Mons will be using at this pointnote Though, like with Brock, wild Geodude can still be taken out by a Charmander using Ember. Their difficulty can be also be mitigated if you can pick up TM12 (Water Gun) inside of Mt. Moon itself which can be taught to Nidorino/Nidorina, Rattata, Jigglypuff, and Clefairy.) and Zubat (which are fast enough that you might not be able to flee and can inflict Confusion so you'll hurt yourself half the time trying to damage them). Eventually, you get through Mt. Moon... only to encounter your Rival in Cerulean City, followed by several trainers on a bridge that must all be defeated to move forward to Bill's House, which you need to visit to leave the city and continue with the game. Finally, you battle Misty, whose Starmie is extremely powerful for the part of the game you fight it in due to its very high stats. Survive all of that and the game then opens up, becoming much friendlier and giving you more options in terms of Pokémon to catch, trainers to battle, and places to explore. Additionally, as you progress through the game, your Pokémon will build up stat experience (this Gen's equivalent of EVs), which will significantly improve your stats while opponents' Pokémon will never have any, and certain Gym Badges will give a permanent 12.5% increase to a corresponding stat for all your Pokémon, so eventually your Pokémon will have ridiculously better stats than the opponents even if underlevelled. Plus, opponents have just awful movesets in Red/Blue, with endgame trainers still using early game moves (we're looking at you, Champion Blue), so you'll get a significant moveset advantage as you progress as well.

Artistic License – Biology: The Saffron City Gate Guards won't let you pass until you give them Green Tea to quench their thirst. The problem with this is that Green Tea is a diuretic which doesn't hydrate your body but instead stimulates it into urinating sooner and thus takes away water and makes you more thirsty. So Green Tea is not really a good choice for quenching thirst, especially when it's served hot.

Always Someone Better: Played with when it comes to your rival. Throughout the game, he is always at least one step ahead of you, such as on the S.S. Anne when he brags about having captured 40 Pokémon when you're lucky to have half that number (doing so by that point is possible, but would require massive Level Grinding to evolve every Pokémon you can catch and/or trade from another game). However, you avert it by beating him in every battle you have, showing that you are the more skilled trainer. Even after he becomes Champion, you show up to end his reign very quickly.

Big First Choice
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_1a888076
comment
Big First Choice: Begins the series tradition of having you choose from one of three starting Pokémon. You have to make this choice before getting to know anything about battling or the Mons themselves (other than their type.) Your rival will immediately choose the Pokémon strong against whichever you chose, and there is no legitimate way to get the ones you did not choose unless you trade them in from another game. However, nothing forces you to use your starter at all after you catch your first Pokémon, and in fact the starters all tend to be lackluster Pokémon in these games, with many better alternatives becoming available later on. As the selection of available Pokémon is very limited and poor early on, it's probably not advisable to ditch your starter until after at least defeating Misty.

 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_1d46fe35
comment
Magic Is Rare, Health Is Cheap: Potions of various strengths which can be used to heal HP can be purchased from PokéMarts and found all over the game world. Ethers and Elixirs, which restore PP, cannot be purchased and are extremely rare to find. It's best to save them all for the Elite Four, where you'll have to fight several difficult battles in a row without being able to restore the PP of moves at a Pokémon Center in between.

Breaking the Fourth Wall: In the French version, the burglar Rocket will do so if you don't have room for TM28, mentioning that it's written in the story that he's supposed to hand it over to you before he takes off. One of the video games in the Celadon Department Store's TV Game Shop reads "An RPG! There's no time for that!".

Stealth Pun: The Fire Type move Fire Blast is based on the real life Kanji Dai\Oo, meaning "big" or "great" (its power is great, its size is big, and, if used on your Pokémon, your opponent wants it to die in a fire). Giovanni is the leader of Team Rocket, the Pokémon world's equivalent to The Mafia. Meaning he's a mafia don. Meaning he's Don Giovanni.

Poor, Predictable Rock
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_20210131
comment
Poor, Predictable Rock: Every gym leader and Elite Four member devotes him or herself to one particular type. Justified, since they are meant to test trainers by providing them a challenge. When it comes to a Pokémon's level-up movepool, they'll generally only learn Normal moves and moves of their respective type(s) — and sometimes, such as with Scyther and Pinsir, not even that! This makes TMs more essential for giving Pokémon diverse movesets, though later games would give most Pokémon at least one move of a different type in their level-up movelist.

Utility Weapon: Several moves have uses outside of battle that can be utilized to get around obstacles, as transportation, or even healing. HM01 Cut removes certain trees and tall grass that is in front of you. The trees and grass will grow back after you leave the area. HM02 Fly will transport you to any town you've visited before. HM03 Surf lets you move across water. HM04 Strength allows you to push certain boulders. HM05 Flash lights up dark caves. TM28 Dig will take you to the last Pokémon Center you visited if used in a cave. TM30 Teleport will take you to the last healing spot (Pokémon Center or your house) you visited when used outside (but not in a town/city). TM41 Softboiled will transfer 20% of the owner's HP to another Pokémon.

Chekhov's Gag: One 20 years in the making, no less. When Bill fuses with a Pokémon, it's just a humorous reference to The Fly (1986), and he tells you to run the "Cell Separation System" to de-fuse him. Then in Pokémon Sun and Moon, Bill and the Cell Separation System are revealed as the only things that might save Lusamine, as she fuses with an Ultra Beast and ends up getting a lot of toxins from it in her body.

Forced Level-Grinding
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_26a98394
comment
Forced Level-Grinding: There is a major level jump between the eighth gym leader (Giovanni), whose strongest Pokémon is a level 50 Rhydon (with four others at level 45 or less,) and the first Elite Four member, Lorelei, who has a team of five all at level 53 or above, while the levels go up to the 60s when you fight the champion. You don't actually need to grind in a normal playthrough despite this big level jump, due to extreme deficiencies with the AI and their teams, as well as Stat EXP and the badge boosts more than making up for any level deficiency with the player's Pokémon (you can be over ten levels lower and still have better stats). However when doing challenge runs, particulary solo Pokémon runs, this often proves to be a point in the game where the player will have to grind up to progress.

Overflow Error: MissingNo. will always be at an absurdly high level due to the nature of the variables being read - characters in the player's name always having a hexidecimal value above 100, the normal Cap). Attempting to level up your Level 255 MissingNo. with a Rare Candy, however, will reset its level to a pathetic 0, and attempting to train it at "legal" levels past this will prove difficult because without the advanced level multipliers, it's quickly found out the hard way that it has the 6th lowest base stat total of all Generation 1 Pokémon, only being beaten out by Magikarp and the not-fully-evolved bugs.

Roar and Whirlwind's only effect is to end battles with wild Pokémon. The "Run" command does it for free without requiring a moveslot and will usually work unless your active Pokémon is slower than the opponent, in which case you would have to take at least one hit anyway before using Roar/Whirlwind. Later generations improved these moves by making them Switch Out Moves in trainer battles.

Tomboy and Girly Girl: Among the Gym Leaders, Misty (the tomboyish mermaid) and Erika (the nature-loving princess). Their strategies and their types also make the distinction between their personalities clear: Misty wields a Staryu and a Starmie, the latter especially that can wipe the floor with your Pokémon rather easily if you're not prepared, and Erika uses comparatively easy Grass-type Pokémon that, if you have a Fire-type, a Grass-type that knows at least one non-Grass-type move, or a Flying-type, should be a breeze to defeat by comparison. Picnickers and Lasses also share this dynamic; it even shows in their battle sprites.

comment
Beef Gate: The Diglett's Cave example from the originals returns and is even harder this time around. Not only are the Diglett and Dugtrio just as strong as before, they may now come with the ability Arena Trap, which prevents you from fleeing unless your leading Pokémon is either Flying-type or has Levitate. You still need to get through it in order to get the Flash HM for navigating Rock Tunnel.

Cut and Paste Environments: Virtually all environments fall into this. House interiors are pretty much all the same with some of the furniture rearranged, Pokémon Centers and Marts are identical save for the random NPCs inside, etc. The Celadon Hotel appears to be a hastily-redesigned Pokémon Center. You can even access a PC in the upper right corner (where one would normally be in a standard Center), even though the space is technically empty.

Game-Breaking Bug
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_33ca811a
comment
Game-Breaking Bug: There are two such particular bugs with the roaming Legendary Beasts. One is if they use Roar on you to end the battle, they disappear permanently on your file and can no longer be caught, when normally them using Roar is supposed to be functionally equivalent to them running away, where the battle ends but you're able to find and catch them again. Then for the second bug with them, instead of being able to be generated with an IV up to 31 for each stat as it is normally, due to a glitch with how their IVs are handled they can never have an IV higher than 7 for their Attack stat and the rest of their non-HP stats will always have an IV of 0, meaning it's impossible for you to catch one in these games that doesn't have completely gimped stats.

HalfTruth
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_344935b3
comment
This set of games and all of its associated media insist that ghost types are the best choices against psychic types. One trainer in Sabrina's gym even says "Psychics only fear ghosts and bugs!", which is, at best, a Half-Truth in the original Pokémon generation. Not only are the only ghosts in these games weak to psychic attacks due to their secondary poison type, and not only are there no strong ghost attacks, but psychic-types are outright immune to ghost attacks thanks to a programming bug. Furthermore, there are no strong bug attacks, and many bug Pokémon are also part poison. Ghost and bug types are thus in many ways the worst choice against psychics.

Bonus Dungeon: There are a few areas you're never required to step foot in to progress in the game, but can reward you if you do: The Fighting Dojo in Saffron City, which in-universe was Saffron's Gym until Sabrina and her Psychic-type trainers defeated the Dojo's Fighting-types and took the official Gym status in the process. Beating the Dojo's master will have him give you your choice of Hitmonchan or Hitmonlee, which cannot be obtained anywhere else in the game. The abandoned Power Plant south of Rock Tunnel, which can't be accessed until you can Surf. It's full of Electric Pokémon at rather high levels for the midgame and has some valuable items, while additionally having Zapdos at the end of it. The Seafoam Islands between Fuschia and Cinnabar's water routes; you can go through them to reach Cinnabar from Fuchsia, or skip them entirely by Surfing to Cinnabar from Pallet Town instead. They're full of high-leveled Water Pokémon and some evolved ones you won't encounter elsewhere, while additionally being the home of Articuno. The postgame Cerulean Cave, home of Mewtwo, which is blocked off until you become Champion. It also contains the strongest wild Pokémon in the game.

Whereas physical Attack and Defense are separate stats, their special counterparts are one stat.

Boring, but Practical
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6
comment
Boring, but Practical: The bog-standard Normal/Flying type Spearow and its evolution, Fearow. You can catch one on Route 22 west of Viridian City, its Peck attack will make short work of the Bug-types in Virdian Forest while allowing for easy grinding, it evolves quickly (at level 20) to get you a Pokémon significantly stronger than the typical mid-evolutions shortly after you reach Cerulean, and Fearow's powerful STAB move Drill Pick and getting STAB off of strong Normal moves (plus its decent Attack and Speed) will allow it to remain viable late into the game. It can be swapped out for the superior Dodrio when you reach Celadon, but on its own it only starts to fall behind around the time of Victory Road, and by then you'll have had the opportunity to catch at least one of the legendary birds to replace it with.

Some Unintentionally Unwinnable scenarios that were possible in Red and Blue had an escape hatch added in.

Recurring Boss

Recurring Boss: In addition to the two from the original two games (Blue/Gary and Giovanni), this installment adds Team Rocket's Jessie & James as a recurring opponent. They replace a few unnamed Team Rocket grunts in certain parts of the game, including both times you confront Giovanni when he's leading Team Rocket (Jessie & James will not show up for your final encounter with Giovanni in the Viridian City Gym, when you face him for the Earth Badge and the ability to proceed to the end of the game). These two aren't that much better than their anime counterparts at this point of the show's run or the regular grunts (they have Ekans, Koffing, and Meowth for each of their fights, with Ekans and Koffing evolved for later), but they will always show up without warning, though viewers of the anime can anticipate when to see them.

The Greatest Story Never Told: While Mr. Fuji is a kind old man whose biggest role in the story is giving the player the Poké Flute, hints on Cinnabar Island*As well as Faraway Island in Emerald suggest a greater history: that he was once known as Dr. Fuji, founded the Pokémon Lab, lived in the Pokémon Mansion, was the one to discover Mew... and ultimately used horrific genetic engineering to create the violent and dangerous Mewtwo, the aftermath of which seemingly shamed him into showing kindness towards other Pokémon in repentance. And not once is any of this directly brought up in the main story by anyone, least of all the man himself. In fact, it took over seventeen years before an adaptation addressed it.

Magikarp Power
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6
comment
Magikarp Power: Trope Namer. Magikarp can be purchased in Mt. Moon's Pokémon Center very early in the game, and it's completely pathetic even compared to the local Com Mons. Get it to level 20, though, and it'll evolve into the very powerful Gyarados, which can proceed to steamroll everything in its path. When you encounter an Abra, it only knows one move: Teleport. Teleport allows it to flee battle, making it very hard to catch without putting it to sleep first or getting lucky will a full-health catch. It will effectively be useless in battle for you, but grind it to level 16, and it evolves into the much more useful Kadabra. You can then immediately trade Kadabra to a friend and then trade it back, giving you the very powerful Alakazam. The rare Dratini, which could only be captured by fishing in the Safari Zone or purchased at the Game Corner, is also extremely weak. If babied until level 30, it evolves into the only-slightly-better Dragonair. Get it to 55, however, and it evolves into the mighty Dragonite. Dragonite has the second highest base state total in the game, the single highest Attack stat, a vast movepool from TMs, and only two weaknesses to the rare Ice type and weak Rock type. The complete lack of good STAB moves (including no Dragon moves besides the weak Fixed Damage Attack set damage Dragon Rage) limits it, however, and makes it less effective than several other fully-evolved Pokémon, so in practice it's not really worth the effort.

Ability Required to Proceed
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_3f2503af
comment
In certain places where Ability Required to Proceed is in play, it's possible for a player to strand themselves by getting rid of the ability. Cinnabar Island is water-locked, so the player can't leave without a pokémon that knows Surf or Fly—so if a player releases all Pokémon that have or can learn those moves and bankrupts themselves such that they have no pokéballs and cannot purchase more, they can trap themselves on the island permanently. (If a player really wants to make it inescapable, they will also rid themselves of every Pokémon except one, so that they cannot even trade for Pokémon that can use the needed abilities). A player can likewise trap themselves at the Indigo Plateau by ridding themselves of all money, resources, and Pokémon that can learn Surf and Strength to progress back through Victory Road, while leaving themselves with only Pokémon too weak to defeat Lorelei or any of the wild encounters in Victory Road (which then prevents being able to grind up to escape by defeating the Elite Four).

Desperation Attack

comment
Struggle is treated as a Normal-type move, so Ghost-types are immune to it. This can potentially make a PvP battle unwinnable if both players' last Pokémon is a Ghost with no PP left (since AI opponents have unlimited PP in Gen 1, this cannot happen in single-player.) Future generations make it a typeless move to avoid this. The recoil damage from struggling is also treated differently, with the Pokémon taking half the damage they managed to deal. Gens II and III would reduce it to a fourth of the damage, while Gens IV onward would make it a fourth of your max HP, regardless of how much damage you inflicted.

Privileged Rival: Played up even more than in the original games, as now your Rival will force his way past you to take the Pokémon (Eevee) that was supposed to be yours, leaving you with a freshly caught, completely untamed, and, at least in terms of long-term battle potential, weaker Pikachu.

These are the only remakes not to alter the HM list and the only remakes that don't give field effects back to moves that previously had them. Downplayed as the original games are the only ones not to have moves with field effects exclusive to them and the first games that don't have HMs unique to them.

comment
No Fair Cheating: If you hack Mew or Deoxys into the game to skip having to need the events for them, since they don't get a special flag otherwise, they will disobey your every command regardless if you have the Earth badge. Downplayed in the sense that the anti-cheat measure only worked if you directly hacked them into your game. Hacking to teleport to their location and catching them there wouldn't.

Early Installment Character-Design Difference
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_4348c929
comment
Early Installment Character-Design Difference: The appearances of many Pokémon were codified by the anime and the later Yellow version. In Red and Blue, some of them are unrecognizable from how they're widely known now. Take a look at Geodude◊, Cloyster◊, and Gastly◊, for example. Downplayed because the designs of the Pokémon in the anime and the later Yellow version are actually based on the concept art drawn by Ken Sugimori. Sugimori apparently took the time to unify the styles of many, many different spriters and designers. Prior to Yellow, Red and Blue have slight differences in their designs that don't match their official art released at the time, though Red's finalized design can be seen in the title screen of Red and Blue (which was carried over from Japanese Blue). These are the only games in the series in which Gym Leaders (save for Erika and Giovanni) share the same overworld sprites as random NPCs. All later games would give each Leader their own unique sprite.

Four Is Death
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_471a505f
comment
Four Is Death: You will run into the infamous Jessie & James a total of four times in this version of Pokémon. They take the place of several Rocket Grunts in key TR operations, including the first two instances where you meet their boss Giovanni. note Specifically, Jessie & James first pop up at Mt. Moon, just past the Super Nerd with the Pokémon fossils and right before the exit, in an attempt to take the fossil you earned; the Rocket trainer prior to the Super Nerd is no longer there as a result. They then replace the two Rockets guarding the door to Giovanni's office at the bottom of the Team Rocket hideout in Celadon City (the door will already be open, but Jessie & James will rush you once you step off the elevator; you need to defeat them to even explore the floor, much less challenge Giovanni). Their third appearance is at the top of Pokémon Tower in Lavender Town after you get past the ghost Marowak, taking the job of the original three Rockets of holding Fuji hostage (at this point, Ekans and Koffing will have evolved, but they are still pushovers). Their final appearance is in the hallway to the Silph Co. boardroom and the second encounter with Giovanni, past the room with Blue/Gary waiting to fight you (his Eevee will be evolved at this point) and the employee holding the Lapras, replacing the sole Rocket in front of the door; again, they will ambush you once you start down the hall. They do not return for the final encounter with their boss in Viridian City.

The A.I. Roulette makes no consideration for recovery moves, so AI trainers will often use them when they're barely damaged or even at full heath. In particular, this makes high-level enemy Kadabra and Alakazam (who are otherwise usually the most threatening opposing Pokémon in the game) quite a bit more manageable.

Abra. While only a slightly uncommon encounter, it has the annoying habit of using its only move (Teleport) to flee from battle, making it incredibly difficult to catch. If you are able to catch one, you can evolve it into the much more powerful Kadabra (and, if you can trade it, Alakazam), giving you an extremely powerful Pokémon.

Artwork and Game Graphics Segregation
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_49354751
comment
Artwork and Game Graphics Segregation: Almost every Pokémon in the game looks radically different from the official art — Gastly, for instance, is simply a cloud of gas with a face rather than a black orb surrounded by gas. Reportedly, the artwork was made after the spritework was completed, and Ken Sugimori made many deviations from what was present in-game. Pokémon Yellow would redo all the Pokémon sprites to better match Sugimori's artwork, tying in with its status as a recursive adaptation of Pokémon: The Original Series.

comment
The trapping moves (Wrap, Bind, Fire Spin, and Clamp) are completely different in function, unlike in the original RBY they hit just once (with their same pitiful power and accuracy issues) and only prevent the opponent from switching out/fleeing instead of preventing them from making any moves, and then they deal weak residue damage equal to 1/16th of a Pokémon's HP for 2-5 turns. This nerfed them from being game breaking to being not especially useful.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: When it comes to the music, FireRed and LeafGreen are two of only four games post-Ruby and Sapphire to not have the Poké Mart theme or the expanded portion of the Hall of Fame theme that were both introduced in Ruby and Sapphire (the other two being Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!). Even the remakes of Pokémon Gold and Silver use them to the point that there's a GB Sounds equivalent of the Poké Mart theme. It's also the only set of remakes to recycle the gym theme from the mainline generation games. All the other remakes either have their own remix of the theme (in the case of HeartGold and SoulSilver) or uses an updated version of the original game's incarnation (in the case of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire). The ability to teach the final forms of your starter Pokémon Frenzy Plant, Blast Burn or Hydro Cannon was introduced within these games. Unlike within later generations, only the Kanto starters could learn them. FireRed and LeafGreen are the only remakes not to include a duplicate of the main game's Battle Tower/Battle Frontier analogue. HeartGold and SoulSilver has the resident Battle Tower replaced with the duplicate of the Sinnoh Battle Frontier while Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire replaces the Battle Tower of the original games with a replica of Kalos' Battle Maisonnote The Hoenn Battle Frontier's still canon, as well as Hoenn's original Battle Tower. They had just been retconned into being under development by the time the games take place. These are the only remakes where the opposite gendered player character doesn't appear in-story, and thus, the only games where you don't get to see the canon names of both playable characters in-game until Sun and Moon, where both protagonists don't get a canon name. HeartGold and SoulSilver adds the opposite gendered playable character into the story (as well as retconning the canon name of the male playable character) and the original opposite gendered playable character of Ruby and Sapphire reprises their role as a rival in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. These are the only remakes to make some non-native legendary Pokémon event exclusive (as Ho-Oh and Lugia can only be captured in these games via an event). These are the only remakes not to alter the HM list and the only remakes that don't give field effects back to moves that previously had them. Downplayed as the original games are the only ones not to have moves with field effects exclusive to them and the first games that don't have HMs unique to them. Attempting to evolve a Pokémon with a non-Gen I evolution, trade in a Pokémon not native to Gen I, or even trade with one of the Hoenn games all before the National Dex is obtained will result in the evolution being cancelled and the trade being rejected. Later remakes would retcon most new evolutions into their regional Pokédexes and have no restrictions on trading, and even Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! (which outright removed all Pokémon past Mew) allowed the non-Gen I Meltan and Melmetal to be used, as well as Alolan forms. Deoxys's alternate formes, which are first introduced here, are version-exclusive: FireRed gets the Attack Forme, and LeafGreen the Defense Forme. There is no way to change it in-game unlike in later games, and a Deoxys traded from another version will always assume the forme specific to the game it is sent to.

Fragile Speedster
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_5979acea
comment
Electrode is the fastest Pokémon in this generation, with a base Speed stat of 140 while nothing else is faster than 130, and since this is in the days before held items, limited EV distribution, and natures, Electrode will always go first on equal grounds against any Pokémon but another Electrode. Plus, as Gen 1 based critical hits off of raw Speed, this also means Electrode has the highest critical hit rate, with it critting 27.45% of the time. However, Speed is all Electrode has; its Special is a mediocre 80, it is very frail with HP and Defense stats of 60 and 70 respectively, and it has an anemic Attack of 50. Electrode falls quickly to both Physical and Special attacks, it doesn't hit hard in return, and its movepool consists of just Electric and Normal moves, the latter of which, with its awful Attack, will be barely hurting opponents. Plus, with Speed being its only advantage, a paralyzed Electrode is practically useless. Jolteon pretty much just outclasses it; it trades a mere 10 Speed (allowing it to still outspeed or speed-tie everything but Electrode) in exchange for much better Special, less pathetic Attack, and access to Double Kick and Pin Missile to deal greater damage to Rock/Ground and Grass Pokémon that are immune to or resist Electric moves. Electrode's only real use is being the fastest Pokémon with Explosion (which coming off its 50 Attack still isn't going to hurt that much), and if you're fighting someone's Mewtwo, it's the only thing that will for sure be able to outspeed and paralyze Mewtwo to give the rest of your team a shot against him.

Not even the Master Ball (if you use cheats to get it at this point) will work on itnote though due to an oversight, a Poké Doll can be used to complete the battle without actually fighting. And of course, Pokémon owned by Trainers can't be captured either.

Convenient Weakness Placement
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_5d5fde52
comment
Convenient Weakness Placement: Those mentioned from Red and Blue are still present, but more are added here. In particular, you can now catch a Mankey on Route 22 near Viridian City, and the Nidoran in the same area can now learn Double Kick a lot sooner. These changes give the player access to invaluable Fighting-type moves, extremely helpful when battling Brock, whose Rock/Ground-types are immune or resistant to all of Pikachu's moves. Thus, the player now has a fighting chance against Brock, since you cannot proceed to Mt. Moon without the Boulder Badge.

End Game Plus: After becoming Champion, the credits will roll and you'll be returned to your home in Pallet Town. Cerulean Cave will now be open, and you're free to challenge the Elite Four again or battle against your friends. Stops short of being a Playable Epilogue (like the later games in the series have) because no one will recognize your achievement as Champion. Other than the NPC Roadblock in front of Cerulean Cave being gone, the game world is exactly the same.

Fake Weakness
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_60e5e6a9
comment
Fake Weakness: The game will tell you that Psychic-types are weak to Ghost- and Bug-types, but in practice, this is a lie. Due to a bug, Psychic-types are actually immune to Ghost-type moves. Even if they weren't, there are only two damaging Ghost-type moves: Night Shade is a Fixed Damage Attack that ignores weaknesses, and Lick has a measly 30 base power. Additionally, the only Ghost-type Pokémon in this game are the Gastly line, which are also Poison-type and so take super-effective damage from Psychic-type moves. Unlike the total failure of Ghosts against Psychics, Bug-type moves will actually hit and deal double damage. However, the three damaging moves of that type have even lower power than Lick (although Twineedle, despite its 25 power, approaches viability since it can hit twice), and again most Bug-Type Pokémon are also Poison-type.

Dynamic Difficulty: Subtle example in the form of what your Rival evolves his Eevee into depending on how you do in your first two battles against him. Win both, and he evolves it into a Jolteon, which is resistant to your Pikachu's electric attacks. Win the first but lose or skip the second, and he evolves it into a Flareon, which is neutral to your Pikachu's electric attacks. Lose both, and he evolves it into Vaporeon, which is weak against your Pikachu's electric attacks.

Escape Rope: The Trope Namer. Escape Ropes are items that will return you to the last Pokémon Center you visited. The moves Dig and Teleport can be used outside of battle to similar effect, with the former working in dungeons and sending you to the entrance and the latter sending you to the last Pokémon Center you used when used in outdoor areas. The move Fly expands on Teleport's function, allowing you to fly to any town (and, in some games, any rural Pokémon Center, such as the one outside Mt. Moon in FireRed and LeafGreen) you've set foot in, essentially making it a more flexible upgrade to Teleport (with the catch that not all Pokémon that can learn Teleport can learn Fly).

Dub-Induced Plot Hole
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_6a85e9e1
comment
Dub-Induced Plot Hole: There's an NPC on Cinnabar Island who offers to trade you his Electrode for a Raichu; if you speak to him afterwards he claims "the Raichu you traded me went and evolved!", which of course, isn't possible. In the Japanese Blue Version, which provides the script and engine for the international releases rather than having them directly based on the original Red and Green, the NPC traded you a Graveler for a Kadabra, both Pokémon that evolve by trading, and his line afterwards was meant to be a hint on how to obtain their final forms. For the English release, the localizers changed the Pokémon being offered to what they were in Red and Green, but simply forgot to alter the rest of the dialogue to match. The Red and Green trades were used in the remakes: while this meant that Westerners never got a chance to experience Japanese Blue's trades, the mix-up was at least fixed, and there’s no mention of Raichu evolving. Tail Whip. The name suggests that the user would smack the enemy with their tail to lower their Defense, but it is actually far less hardcore then that. Its original name is actually "Tail Wag", which is apparently used cutely to lower the enemy's guard. Later games would support the original depiction more in its description and animation. The later-introduced move Tail Slap is exactly what it sounds like.

Marathon Level: Mt. Moon is a labyrinthine multi-level cave full of trainers (including a Boss in Mook Clothing Team Rocket member with a Raticate), Geodude (who will resist the Normal-type moves most of your low-level Mons will be using at this point), and Zubat (which are fast enough that you might not be able to flee and can inflict confusion so you'll hurt yourself half the time trying to damage them). The latter two show up in roughly equal numbers, which makes it challenging to choose a Pokémon to lead with. Anything strong against one tends to struggle against the other. Expect to make deeper and deeper forays while retreating back to the Pokémon Center outside for healing. Routes 12, 13, 14, and 15 combine to make for a long trek connecting Lavender Town to Fuchsia City. It's full of trainers with nowhere close by to heal along the way. Thankfully, it's optional as you can take Cycling Road instead to reach Fuschia City, but you'll need to get through at least part of it if you want the Super Rod.

Balance Buff
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_6e1e24a
comment
Balance Buff: The starters all do much better here than in the original games thanks to buffed stats from the Special split and movepool additions. Zig-Zagged by the Bulbasaur line. It learns the status-inflicting Powder moves much sooner, and later on, get stronger STAB options like Giga Drain and Sludge Bomb, as well as Earthquake for coverage. Plus, Venusaur is one of the few Pokémon that had a 100 or higher Special stat in the Gen 1 games that didn't get one of its Special stats nerfed in the Gen 2 Special split (with both Special stats remaining 100), making its stats relatively better compared to other Pokémon, especially compared to the competing Victreebel and Exeggutor lines, who had their Special Defense drastically nerfed from the Special split. However, it's harmed by the Nerf to moves with an increased critical hit rate, so its Razor Leaf isn't anything like as powerful as it was in the original, and the changes to trainer movesets and AI mean that Venusaur will find its weaknesses being exploited more than in the original game. The Charmander line gets Metal Claw very early on to help players out against Rock Pokémon, and learns Flamethrower considerably faster, while learning more coverage moves like Iron Tail and Rock Slide from TMs. It also has a significantly higher Special Attack stat than in the Gen 1 games after the Special split, allowing it to better fulfill its Glass Cannon design and making it the best offensive Pokémon of the starters. The Squirtle line gets some utility moves like Rapid Spin, Protect, and Rain Dance, to help support its team. It also has a significantly higher Special Defense stat than in the Gen 1 games after the Special split, allowing it to better fulfill its Stone Wall design, and making it stand out better from the numerous other Water types that outclassed it before.

There's a pair of NPCs (Eric and Sara), one just inside the Safari Zone and one just outside it, who are explicitly named and are looking for each other. But there's no sidequest to reunite them.

Guide Dang It!
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8
comment
Guide Dang It!: Certain hidden items, like the Leftovers a defeated Snorlax drops, can only be found by using the Itemfinder while standing on the exact tile the item is on. The game will say there's no response if you're even one tile off, and it never tells you about this odd mechanic. Players who head to the top floor of the Celadon Department Store to buy drinks for the thirsty guards will be confused on why it doesn't work. They accept Green Tea instead, which is a key item obtained from an old lady at the ground floor of the Celadon Mansion, where nothing important happens there in the original games.

Marathon Boss: The various Legendary Pokémon, particularly if you're trying to catch them. Due to their incredibly low catch rates, they can shrug off dozens of catch attempts even if they are reduced to extremely low HP and inflicted with a status effect. Meanwhile, they'll be blowing away your Pokémon with high powered attacks. Should you knock them out and need to reload a save to try again, you'll have to start all over again, making this a very time consuming process.

Antidote Effect
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_6ff43af4
comment
Antidote Effect: In general, because you can only carry 20 types of itemnote  You can carry up to 99 of a single item, like Potions or Poké Balls, but there are only 20 inventory slots, it is wise to carry as little as you can get away with. You can store up to 50 additional types of items in the PC, but this can only be accessed while in Pokémon Centers, not out in the world. A few specific examples: Awakenings become useless as soon as you get the Poké Flute. It will wake Pokémon up inside or out of battle, and has no use limit. Once Full Heals become available for purchase, most of the single-effect healing items (Antidotes, Paralyze Heals, Burn Heals, etc.) are no longer worth carrying. While more expensive than any of them individually, carrying a stack of Full Heals only takes up one precious inventory slot and covers any effect you come across.

Personal desktops are CRT monitors with big, chunky PC towers, certain overworld tiles resemble reel-to-reel wall-spanning computers, and the protagonist's game console of choice is the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Excuse Plot: There's really no overarching plot other than "Become a Pokémon Master!" The only real subplot is Team Rocket, which has virtually nothing to do with your main quest other than Giovanni being the last Gym Leader. Likewise, the Legendary Pokémon are completely divorced from the plot and pretty much just optional treasures to collect.

Plot Tunnel: After exiting Mt. Moon, there's a ledge with no ladders or stairs going back up. Once you jump down, you're effectively locked out of the Pallet Town-Mt. Moon area until you're able to learn and use the HM Cut, which requires some non-trivial progressnote Defeat your Rival, cross Nugget Bridge, visit Bill, beat Misty, beat your Rival again, then heal the captain on the SS Anne. If you haven't been capturing a variety of Pokémon and/or are under-leveled, you may find yourself struggling with these parts while being unable to go back.

Forced Tutorial: Professor Oak insists on explaining how a Pokémon battle works during your initial battle with your Rival, and before you even play the game, there are mandatory introductory screens showing you which buttons do what and telling you about the world of Pokémon in even greater detail than Professor Oak. In Pallet Town, a certain woman wants to show you what's written on a newly-placed sign near the lab. You will not be able to leave Pallet Town unless you either read the sign or hear her recite what it says — and all it says is "Press Start to open the menu".

Poison Is Evil: Played straight with the Team Rocket Grunts, who primarily use Poison-types (Zubat, Koffing, Ekans, Grimer, etc.) along with non-Poison-types who can use Poison-type moves (Sandshrew and Drowzee) as well as the Rattata-line. Played With in the case of Giovanni, the boss of Team Rocket. While he prefers Ground-types and is the Ground-type gym leader, his Nidoking and Nidoqueen are part Poison. Averted with Koga, who is the actual Poison-type gym leader but isn't evil. Played straight with the Biker-class trainers, who are implied to be motorcycle gang types, and use Poison-types along with Fighting-types.

Mt. Moon is a labyrinthine multi-level cave full of trainers (including a Boss in Mook Clothing Team Rocket member with a Raticate), Geodude (who will resist the Normal-type moves most of your low-level Mons will be using at this point), and Zubat (which are fast enough that you might not be able to flee and can inflict confusion so you'll hurt yourself half the time trying to damage them). The latter two show up in roughly equal numbers, which makes it challenging to choose a Pokémon to lead with. Anything strong against one tends to struggle against the other. Expect to make deeper and deeper forays while retreating back to the Pokémon Center outside for healing.

Too Awesome to Use
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_7d561d58
comment
Too Awesome to Use: The Master Ball, which you obtain after defeating Giovanni for the second time, will catch any Pokémon without fail, but you only get one. Guides advise players to save it for Mewtwo in the post-game, as it's the hardest Pokémon to catch. Some rare healing items like Max Revives and PP restoring items like Ethers and Elixirs cannot be purchased from any store, only found in the overworld lying around. Some TMs count due to the comparatively barren level-up movepool most Pokémon have in these games, and only a few of the TMs have more than one copy you can obtain. For example, Rock Slide is the stronger of the only two offensive Rock-type moves in Gen I, but no Pokémon learn it naturally and there's only one TM of it per game. Probably the TM that most exemplifies this is the Dig TM. It's a 100 power Ground move with 100% accuracy that you can get before Misty, and it taking 2 turns to use isn't much of a detriment when fighting AI that will never take advantage of the digging turn to switch out or do something else to get an advantage. However for any Ground-type that isn't part of the Dugtrio or Marowak line (who get Dig naturally and the exclusive Bone Club early respectively) it'll be their only opportunity to get a STAB move early, as the only other damaging non-exclusive Ground move, Earthquake, is learned much later (if at all, quite a few Ground types don't learn Earthquake naturally either). Then Dig can be learned by many non-Ground Pokémon, where it makes a great coverage move as Ground is the second best offensive type after Psychic and will cover gaping holes in one's moveset (for example the Charizard line can be taught Dig to beat Rock, Electric, and other Fire types that would otherwise be a problem). So deciding between whether to give your Ground type desperately needed STAB or give one of your other Pokémon some desperately needed coverage they wouldn't get otherwise can be a really difficult decision to make.

comment
A player who wishes to can trap themselves in Lorelei's room by ridding themselves of all but one Pokémon, either a Fighting-type or Poison-type, whose only usable move is Rage. Players must defeat Lorelei to proceed to the next room, which is impossible because Rage will never muster the power to beat Lorelei's Dewgong, which will always use the Psychic-type healing move Rest against a Fighting-type or Poison-type because the "smart" A.I. of the game prioritizes Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors over all other considerations, and then Rage locks the player's Pokémon into only using it until it faints or the battle ends, while also never running out of PP. This Rage vs. Rest issue will inadvertently lock the game into a Healing Loop that cannot be escaped from.

comment
Rouge Angles of Satin: Given the Color Motif Theme Naming, the opening town is meant to invoke the range of potential colors. Unfortunately, the correct word for this is "palette"; the game instead uses "pallet", which is a large platform for moving goods and has nothing to do with art or color.

 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_8454f523
comment
Superboss: The legendary Pokémon from the originals return in this role, and are joined by one of the Johto legendary beasts once you've received the National Dex. The one that appears is the one which is strong against whatever starter you chose (Entei for Bulbasaur, Suicune for Charmander, and Raikou for Squirtle). When you first beat the game you won't be able to refight the Elite Four and the Champion like you could in the originals. But once you complete the Sevii Islands postgame plot, you can refight them again, where all of their Pokémon are 12 levels higher, have improved movesets, and their teams have swapped a Pokémon or two out for their final evolution or a superior Gen II Pokémon. Beating this harder Elite Four doesn't give you anything more though than some really good experience and money, but they can be refought as many times as one wishes. If the event-exclusive MysticTicket and/or AuroraTicket is on a player's save file, Lugia and Ho-Oh and/or Deoxys can be battled after access to the remaining Sevii Islands is granted. It's less overt with Deoxys, however, as it is found at level 30, while the two Johto legendaries are both level 70.

It's All Upstairs From Here: Quite a few buildings with plenty of stairs appear: Pokémon Tower, Celadon Mansion (especially if one goes in the back to get an Eevee,) the Celadon Department Store (though this also has an elevator,) and the Silph Co.

What Happened to the Mouse?: The third possible starter, the one neither you nor your rival picks, will remain on Oak's lab table for the entire game, never to be acknowledged again. Dummied Out data suggests it might have been used in a fight against Oak himself, but this idea didn't make it into the final game.

Utility Party Member: Rather than permanently weakening one of your good Pokémon by teaching it a lousy HM move, you can instead choose to bring along what the fanbase has coined an "HM Slave" to learn the moves instead. While it takes up a party slot, you won't be using it in battle if you can help it, leaving your other five completely geared for battle. Once you hit the Pokémon League, you can safely deposit the HM Slave and bring out a sixth true battler.

 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_87ce64a0
comment
Old Save Bonus: Any player who beats the Master Cup in Pokémon Stadium or its sequel with a Pikachu in their party will have said Pikachu learn Surf (a move Pikachu otherwise cannot legitimately learn). Pokémon Yellow took this unlockable a few steps forward in that not only is there a special overworld sprite for when Pikachu uses the move outside of battle, a house south of Saffron City allows the player can play an Excite Bike clone called "Pikachu's Beach". Since the Virtual Console release can't connect to any version of Stadium, it lets you play the minigame with your starter Pikachu instead. Beating the Elite 4 and rival in Stadium gave players who hook up their Red or Blue cartridge access to one of the following at random: Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Eevee, Omanyte, or Kabuto. Note that all of them are Pokémon that are permanently missable (in Eevee's case, its evolutions) for anyone who does not have a friend to trade with, due to having to pick between two (Hitmons, fossils) or three (starters, Eeveelutions). This allows players to fill their Pokédex up entirely, outside of version exclusives from the other version.

Warm-Up Boss: Brock. Due to type advantages, a Squirtle or Bulbasaur trainer will be able to wipe the floor with him. Even a Charmander trainer can get around the type disadvantage due to both of Brock's Mons having a low Special stat and no actual Rock-type moves. You just need to beware of damaging Onix while using Bide.

Sleepy Enemy: The games introduce Snorlax, which often appears in the series as a sleeping Broken Bridge that requires special means to wake up. Once you've done so, it proves to be a Mighty Glacier that likes to use "Rest" to restore its health. Later generation games give it additional moves like Belly Drum (maxes out its attack at the cost of half of its HP, which it restores easily with Rest) and moves it can use while asleep like Snore and Sleep Talk.

 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_89ffba83
comment
Brock plays this role, but only if you started with Charmander. With the only other Pokémon available that early being Com Mons with mostly Normal-type attacks (which his high-Defense Rock-types are highly resistant to) and Crutch Character Bug-types (if you bother to level-grind them), your options to counter him are relatively few. A careful trainer can take advantage of his Mons' lack of actual Rock-type moves and poor Special stat by using Charmander's Ember, though you must be careful not to damage Onix while it is using Bide.

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The Pokédex gives "Shellfish" as Blastoise's species, even though it's a sea turtle. This is a mistranslation of the Japanese original, in which its species was "Shell" instead. While some species names were later changed (like “Rat� to “Mouse� for Rattata), this one was not. The Celadon Mansion is not a mansion in the English sense, but an apartment building. In Japanese, it is called a manshon, which does derive from the English mansion but has acquired a different meaning. Later games corrected it by translating it as "Celadon Condominiums". The Spanish translations have a lot of examples. An infamous one was the message displayed after hooking a Pokémon with a fishing rod ("The hooked (Pokémon) attacked"), which was mistranslated as "El malvado (Pokémon) attacked" ("The evil (Pokémon) attacked").

Artificial Stupidity
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_940a5958
comment
Artificial Stupidity: The aforementioned A.I. Roulette in general will lead to countless instances in each playthrough of the AI using blatantly sub-optimal moves, but here are some specific examples of particularly bad misplays the AI consistently makes: The infamous "Good AI" flag that certain trainers have, which will make such trainers always use their moves with the best type effectiveness. The A.I. Breaker section already covered how it makes no consideration for if the moves are actually damaging moves, but it also ignores if a less-effective move would have actually dealt more damage. The biggest example of this is with Misty's fearsome Starmie, whose Bubble Beam is powerful even against Pokémon that would resist it, but due to her "Good AI", she will always have her Starmie use the much weaker Tackle against Grass and Water Pokémon, making it much easier to beat with Water and Grass Pokémon. Some AI trainers are programmed to have a battle item like the X items, where it's then treated as another move that their A.I. Roulette may select randomly. This will often lead to them using the item when it's not helping at all, such as those whose item is X Defend (like Misty) using it when their Pokémon is already near death and thus will be fainted by the next hit regardless of the Defense boost. When a boss trainer has a type of potion as their item, they're programmed to only use it when their Pokémon's HP drops below a set percentage-based threshold. Blaine however, who has Super Potions as his item, was not programmed with any such threshold and so can randomly use them at any time. This means he'll often randomly use Super Potions in situations where his Pokémon don't need the healing, or may even try using them when his Pokémon aren't damaged at all. Never mind that a Super Potion heals too little to be useful for this point of the game when it wouldn't even recover half his Pokémon's health. On that note, the "Rival 2" Trainer class (i.e. the rival fights from the S.S. Anne up to the one on Route 23 after the final Gym) has regular Potions (the 20 HP-healing ones) as the used item. This still applies in said fight on Route 23, where his Pokémon have around 150 HP, meaning they'll barely heal anything. The A.I. Roulette makes no consideration for recovery moves, so AI trainers will often use them when they're barely damaged or even at full heath. In particular, this makes high-level enemy Kadabra and Alakazam (who are otherwise usually the most threatening opposing Pokémon in the game) quite a bit more manageable. AI trainers don't realize that Whirlwind, Roar, and Teleport do nothing in trainer battles, so trainers that have those moves can frequently waste turns trying to use them. Even in Champion Blue's battle, his Arcanine still has Roar and he will still try to use it as if it's any other move. AI trainers don't consider the fact that Dream Eater can only work on sleeping Pokémon, so Agatha's Gengar and Haunter will frequently try to use Dream Eater even when your Pokémon aren't sleeping. Selfdestruct and Explosion aren't given any special consideration for making the user automatically faint; AI trainers using Pokémon with those moves can have them blow up at any time regardless of the situation, even if it's their last Pokémon. This is most infamously seen with Koga, who will often have his last Pokémon, Weezing, blow up with Selfdestruct to auto-lose him the battle if you're not down to one Pokémon yourself, and sometimes doing so as his very first move with the Weezing.

Press X to Die: There's no safeguard against depositing or releasing Pokémon in such a way that the only Pokémon remaining in your party are/is fainted, something that has absolutely no benefit. Upon doing so, you'll faint about three steps later. Later games fix this.

comment
If you choose Charmander as your starter, you're going to have a tougher time against Brock, as his Rock Pokémon will resist Charmander's Fire and Normal moves and the pool of available Pokémon is extremely limited to Com Mon Normal types, weak Bugs, and Nidoran. The intended strategy is to rely on your Pokémon's various stat-reducing moves to weaken Brock's Pokémon, but it's downplayed as Brock's Pokémon lack any actual Rock-type moves, reducing the difficulty significantly. Additionally, since both Geodude and Onix have low Special while their only attacking move is Tackle, Charmander's Special-based Ember still does decent damage to them and will outdamage their Tackles; if you're lucky, it can even inflict them with the Burn status to make Brock waste a turn using a Full Heal. You can win against Brock by just spamming Ember with a decently-levelled Charmander; you only need to be wary of Onix's Bide (avoid damaging him during the turns he is Biding or else Onix will inflict double the damage it sustains back at you). If you chose Bulbasaur or Squirtle as your starter, you just level them up enough to learn Vine Whip and Bubble respectively, and then you just one-shot sweep (or two-hit sweep with Squirtle if you take on Brock immediately after learning Bubble) Brock's team with their respective STAB moves.

Crippling Overspecialization
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_9aaf8eca
comment
Crippling Overspecialization: Parasect (and its pre-evolution Paras) is the only Pokémon in the game with Spore, the only 100% accurate Sleep-inducing move (other Sleep-inducing moves have no better than 75% accuracy). Unfortunately, Parasect has awful stats, including being tied with Snorlax and Slowbro for the slowest fully-evolved Pokémon in the game, but without anywhere near the durability they have to afford taking hits. Parasect also learns few other worthwhile moves — the only Bug-type move it learns is the pitiful 20 power Leech Life, and it doesn't learn the only good Grass-type attack Razor Leaf, preventing it from making real use of its STAB and any possible type advantages. Plus, while its dual Grass/Bug typing gives it a valuable double resistance to Ground moves and a resistance to Water moves, it comes with a slew of exploitable weaknesses, including a crippling double weakness to Fire- and Flying-types. So all Parasect can really do is put an opposing Pokémon to sleep with certainty... if it can get a move in at all, that is. Onix has an insane Defense stat (at 160, it's the second-highest in the game after Cloyster's 180), but other than that, its only other remotely decent stat is a below-average Speed of 70. Its other stats are awful, with an anemic 45 Attack, very low health of 35, and barely-existent Special of 30. So Onix isn't doing much damage, and Special hits will destroy it, with even resisted ones still doing a lot of damage. On top of that, being a Rock/Ground-type gives it a plethora of weaknesses, including double weaknesses to Water and Grass moves, which with its low Special means it'll get one-shotted by Water and Grass moves unless it's ludicrously over-levelled (and still maybe not even then). Electric moves can't hurt it and Onix can tank Normal and Flying moves all day, but if the opponent has anything else, then Onix isn't doing much of anything. Electrode is the fastest Pokémon in this generation, with a base Speed stat of 140 while nothing else is faster than 130, and since this is in the days before held items, limited EV distribution, and natures, Electrode will always go first on equal grounds against any Pokémon but another Electrode. Plus, as Gen 1 based critical hits off of raw Speed, this also means Electrode has the highest critical hit rate, with it critting 27.45% of the time. However, Speed is all Electrode has; its Special is a mediocre 80, it is very frail with HP and Defense stats of 60 and 70 respectively, and it has an anemic Attack of 50. Electrode falls quickly to both Physical and Special attacks, it doesn't hit hard in return, and its movepool consists of just Electric and Normal moves, the latter of which, with its awful Attack, will be barely hurting opponents. Plus, with Speed being its only advantage, a paralyzed Electrode is practically useless. Jolteon pretty much just outclasses it; it trades a mere 10 Speed (allowing it to still outspeed or speed-tie everything but Electrode) in exchange for much better Special, less pathetic Attack, and access to Double Kick and Pin Missile to deal greater damage to Rock/Ground and Grass Pokémon that are immune to or resist Electric moves. Electrode's only real use is being the fastest Pokémon with Explosion (which coming off its 50 Attack still isn't going to hurt that much), and if you're fighting someone's Mewtwo, it's the only thing that will for sure be able to outspeed and paralyze Mewtwo to give the rest of your team a shot against him.

Acrophobic Bird: Despite having Flying as a secondary type and being depicted as flying throughout other Pokémon media or even with their in-game sprites, Charizard, Dragonite, and the Zubat line all can not learn the move Fly. Charizard would gain this ability in Yellow, while Dragonite would get it in Gold and Silver, and Zubat and Golbat would have to wait until Diamond and Pearl to finally learn it (though their final evolution added in Gen 2, Crobat, could learn Fly in its debut in Gold and Silver).

Hub City: Saffron City and Celadon City. Saffron is actually connected to four other cities (as long as the gate guards aren't thirsty) and is the largest city in the game. Celadon is the second largest, and includes the largest store and the Game Corner. With Kanto being based on the real-life Kant� region of Japan, these two cities both represent Tokyo: Celadon for the culture, Saffron for the commerce.

A nearby laptop also mentions Team Rocket conducting experiments with radio waves to forcefully evolve Pokémon. Both these events come to pass in Pokémon Gold and Silver and their remakes. Defeating the final Scientist in the warehouse has him ask the player character if he is Giovanni's son, but corrects himself and remembers that he had red hair. It's implied that Giovanni's son is Silver, the main rival Trainer of Gold and Silver, which is eventually confirmed in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

Competitive Balance
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_9f4a47f2
comment
Competitive Balance: Improved in comparison to the Gen I games, but the Psychic type still has a tremendous advantage owing in large part due to the sheer lack of Dark- and Steel-type mons. Further, while more and better Ghost-type moves are present, the only Ghost-type line (Gastly) is part-Poison and thus weak to Psychic type moves. A good Psychic-type Pokémon can still run roughshod over most of the game, with only the odd Dark or Ghost-type move being used to worry about. Even then, this was before the physical/special split, so the aforementioned Gastly line couldn't really take advantage of either of their STABs due to being special attackers, and Psychic types could tank the few offensive Dark-type moves easily since they still ran off the Special Attack stat (most Psychic types have high Special Defense).

Canon Discontinuity: Pretty much every change in this version was ignored by Pokémon Gold and Silver, which instead derived everything Kanto-based from Red and Blue aside from Red's team (Pikachu + three starters). FireRed and LeafGreen also incorporate very little of Yellow's gameplay. Among the few exceptions would be Pikachu's "relationship" with the player character, which served as a prototype of Gold and Silver's Friendship mechanics, and certain elements of the revised move sets.

At the same time, it's All There in the Manual of the first generation games that his grandson, The Rival, is eleven years old. Assuming these ages are constant for each Video Game Remake, Professor Oak must've been a mere thirty-six years of age when his grandson was born and even younger when the rival's older sister was. This means the Oak family has managed to squeeze two whole generations into about thirty years.

Jack of All Stats
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_ac9f78d9
comment
Jack of All Stats: Nidoking and Nidoqueen. In this generation they don't reach 100 in any base stat (Nidoking's highest is 92 in Attack, Nidoqueen's is HP at 90), but no stat dips below 75 either. Additionally, none of the other early Pokémon rival their move pool for size and type diversity. This generalist nature (and their weakness to omnipresent Psychic, Ground, and Ice moves) makes them less than ideal for competitive PVP, but is a boon in PVE, and their utility in combination with their early availability has made Nidoking a darling of the one-Pokémon speedrunning scene. Mew started the trend of the mythical Pokémon that was good but not great at everything, with all its base stats being an even 100. Mew took it a step farther though by being able to learn every TM and HM in the game, and to this day Mew remains the only Pokémon with this distinction.

Video Game Delegation Penalty
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_acaf9059
comment
Video Game Delegation Penalty: You may choose to leave one of your Mons at the Pokémon Day Care. Pokémon in Day Care gain one experience point per every step the player takes. While its nice to have a Pokémon leveling-up while you simply walk around, there are several drawbacks to this method. For one, Pokémon in Day Care will not evolve. Two, if a Pokémon reaches a level where it can learn a new move, it will always learn that move; if the Pokémon already knows four moves, its first move will be forgotten and the new move will be placed last. This can lead to your Mons forgetting moves you wanted while learning moves you do not. Third, the Mon will not gain Effort Points as it would have if you leveled it up yourself through battle. This will leave it with somewhat lesser stats at higher levels than it would have had if you leveled it up yourself.

Rival Dojos: The current official Gym in Saffron City is dedicated to the Psychic-type under Sabrina.

And then the Player comes along and sacks the Fighting-dojo a second time, forcing the Karate King to beg him not to take their emblem, instead offering up one of their prize Pokémon.

comment
Inventory Management Puzzle: In your bag, you are limited to 20 individual slots for unique items. For instance, whether you were carrying one Potion or 99 Potions, it only takes up one inventory "slot". Because of this, it is wise to carry as few unique items as you can get away with. You can store an extra 50 unique items in the PC to help alleviate this somewhat, but the PC can only be accessed in a Pokémon Center, meaning those items won't be available to you in the game world.

Beauty, Brains, and Brawn: The female Gym Leaders. To wit: Erika, the beauty, isn't known as "the nature-loving princess" for nothing. Sabrina, the brains, is smart enough to know that Psychic-type Pokémon (which are themselves associated with brains) have virtually no weaknesses and uses an army of them in combat. Misty, the brawn, uses brute force with her Staryu and Starmie (especially the latter), which can cause problems even if you came armed with a Pikachu.

These retcons also carry over to HeartGold and SoulSilver, and dialogue is changed accordingly.

Fauxlosophic Narration: The cave in Mt. Ember where the Ruby is found contains the following inscription, in braille: "Everything has meaning. Existence has meaning. Being alive has meaning. Have dreams Use power." This doesn't relate to the game's plot or themes in any way at all, and just seems there for the sake of it. Contrast the braille inscription near the Sapphire, which is an elaborate metaphor for cross-version trading, which the gems enable you to do. This could be a hilarious subversion as within the confines of the game, unlike its counterpart, the text has absolutely no meaning despite what it preaches.

Alakazam is basically a slightly weaker Mewtwo — it has the second-highest Special stat, top-tier Speed, and the Psychic type. Unlike most examples of the trope, it can be obtained relatively early; if you have someone to trade with, you can evolve your Kadabra right after its first evolution at level 16.

A Lost in Translation example; one NPC in the international Red and Blue offers to trade his Electrode for your Raichu. After the trade, he comments that the Raichu you traded him "went and evolved". Raichu did not evolve at all in Gen 1 (and still doesn't, as of Gen 8) — what happened was that in the Japanese Pokémon Blue, from which international Red and Blue derive their scripts, this man traded a Haunter for a Graveler, both of which do evolve, and as this was intended to hint, they evolve after being traded. However, the trade was edited during localization to match the original Red and Green, just like every other in-game trade, while his dialogue was not.

One Stat to Rule Them All
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_b798d379
comment
One Stat to Rule Them All: "Special" dictated both attack and defense power in regard to special-based elements (Fire, Ice, Lightning, Psychic, etc.). It was toned down a great deal in Generation II, wherein it was divided into separate Special Attack and Special Defense. A Pokémon's base Speed stat was at its most important in this Gen, as besides Speed governing the important aspect of who goes first in battle, base Speed also deteremined a Pokémon's critical hit chance, with it ranging from around 5% and below for the slowest Pokémon to over 25% with the fastest Pokémon. Being able to hit these crits was also important as there was little you could do to boost your Pokémon's attack power, with there being no held items and setup moves being scarce, so unlike in later Gens hitting crits was often the only way for a Pokémon to deal more damage outside of type effectiveness. Plus with how Sleep and trapping moves work in this Gen (with waking up from Sleep taking a turn and trapping moves not letting you act during their duration), being slower than a Sleep or trap move user can doom a Pokémon if they're not lucky enough for those moves to miss.

Obvious Rule Patch: Some Unintentionally Unwinnable scenarios that were possible in Red and Blue had an escape hatch added in. The Safari Zone lets you get in with insufficient money (and even no money, once ever), to make sure you can get Strength and Surf. Lorelei's Dewgong has its own AI routine added to prevent you from getting Rage-locked. The interaction with the Old Man in Viridian City who shows you how to catch Pokémon is changed. He can no longer be used to trigger the Missingno glitch, as he disappears after the demonstration due to running out of Poké Balls.

Non-Standard Character Design
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_b8f5a02
comment
Nonstandard Character Design: A retroactive example with Jynx. In the Game Boy Color release, Jynx's color palette consisted of four colors like every other sprite in the game (for Jynx, it's red, black, yellow, and white). For the Virtual Console release, an extra color (purple) was added to change Jynx's skin color to avoid the accusations of Blackface that have plagued the Pokémon for decades. This is notable as the Game Boy Color could not support sprites with more than four colors; it was done by changing the palette for only part of Jynx's sprite. note Pokémon sprites are actually composed of several sprite tiles. In the Virtual Console version, the tiles corresponding to Jynx's face and hands were given a different palette than the rest of her, mostly identical other than black being replaced with purple.

Fixed Damage Attack
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_ba3c18e6
comment
Psywave, the TM you get from Sabrina. It's a Fixed Damage Attack that will randomly deal between 1 damage to 1.5X your Pokémon's level. But each point of damage has an equivalent chance of occuring, so two-thirds of the time your Pokémon will be dealing set damage less than their level, potentially as low as single-digit damage even at high levels, and you should always be able to deal significantly more damage through conventional moves. Then if you want a set damage move, Seismic Toss and Night Shade are much more reliable options that always deal damage equivalent to the user's level, and the former is a TM learnable by nearly every Pokémon that can learn Psywave. Plus Psywave has a very shaky 80% accuracy, making it even more unreliable as if the purely RNG damage wasn't bad enough.

Path of Most Resistance
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_c04f297d
comment
Path of Most Resistance: In nearly every gym, there is a path to get to the gym leader while only needing to fight a few of the gym's other trainers. Most players deliberately go out of their way to battle every trainer for the experience and money. In fact, most guides advise battling every trainer you come across to aid in leveling-up and earning money.

 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_c053f1fc
comment
Required Party Member: Downplayed in that there are only a few points in the game where HM moves are required to advance, but you'll still need a Pokémon in your party to know them to get through those areas (as well as to access a handful of optional areas. Addtionally, Fly is extremely convenient for getting around the map). Out of the five HM moves, only Surf is actually worthwhile in battle towards the end of the game, meaning you'll need to handicap some of your good Pokémon to learn the others (which will permanently stick them with the HM moves as there isn't a Move Deleter in this Gen to forget HM moves) or handicap your overall party by keeping an "HM Slave" Pokémon on hand to use the moves and not much else.

Subverted Trope
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_c145f69b
comment
Subverted with the Magikarp salesman. For 500 Pokédollars (which is a significant sum at this point in the game), he'll sell you a "swell Magikarp", which quickly turns out to be absolutely worthless in battle. Only a few towns later, you can get the Old Rod, which allows you fish up more of the things than you'll know what to do with, and the salesman even tells you he doesn't take refunds after the deal. However, if you have the patience to grind it up all the way to level 20, it will evolve into the monstrous Gyarados. Say hi to your new Disc-One Nuke!

Disconnected Side Area
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_c32d3344
comment
Disconnected Side Area: On Route 2, you may notice an inaccessible area on the other side of the line of trees. This area is first accessible only as an extension of the Diglett Cave dungeon until you obtain the Cut HM and get the corresponding badge. Just south of Pallet Town, there is a body of water. If you come back here once you're able to use Surf, you'll find a small patch of grass which is the only place in the game to find wild Tangela. In the Silph Co. building, the elevator and the stairs to the top floor only lead to a walled-off area, with the CEO's office (where you fight Giovanni to stop Team Rocket's "hostile takeover") only acessible via a Warp Tile.

 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_c3db1619
comment
Zig-Zagged by the Bulbasaur line. It learns the status-inflicting Powder moves much sooner, and later on, get stronger STAB options like Giga Drain and Sludge Bomb, as well as Earthquake for coverage. Plus, Venusaur is one of the few Pokémon that had a 100 or higher Special stat in the Gen 1 games that didn't get one of its Special stats nerfed in the Gen 2 Special split (with both Special stats remaining 100), making its stats relatively better compared to other Pokémon, especially compared to the competing Victreebel and Exeggutor lines, who had their Special Defense drastically nerfed from the Special split. However, it's harmed by the Nerf to moves with an increased critical hit rate, so its Razor Leaf isn't anything like as powerful as it was in the original, and the changes to trainer movesets and AI mean that Venusaur will find its weaknesses being exploited more than in the original game.

Musical Spoiler: The first dungeon you go through is the Viridian Forest, not too far from the First Town of Viridian City which had an absent Gym Leader. Later on, the forest's theme is remixed for Team Rocket's Hideout under the Celadon Game Corner and where you first encounter their leader, Giovanni. Eventually, Viridian City's gym leader returns after you get 7 badges and it's revealed to be none other than Giovanni himself. Anyone who'd played enough RPG games by then may be able to figure out that Lance is merely the Disc-One Final Boss as soon as the fight begins, since the normal Gym Leader music is played during the battle, and by this point in video game history it was standard for RPG Final Bosses to have their own unique battle music.

FireRed and LeafGreen instead reduce visibility to a tiny circle around the player character, making Flash more necessary for finding your way.

New Skill as Reward: Gym Leaders start series tradition by handing out Technical Machines teaching their Signature Move once you beat them.

The sick captain of the SS Anne hands out HM01 for talking to him, HM02 is given by a woman who lives just north of Cycling Road, HM03 is the reward for reaching to the final lodge in the Safari Zone, HM04 is exchanged for the Safari Zone warden's missing gold dentures, and HM05 is from one of Professor Oak's aides for catching a specific amount of Pokémon.

comment
Metal Slime: Abra. While only a slightly uncommon encounter, it has the annoying habit of using its only move (Teleport) to flee from battle, making it incredibly difficult to catch. If you are able to catch one, you can evolve it into the much more powerful Kadabra (and, if you can trade it, Alakazam), giving you an extremely powerful Pokémon. Chansey is extremely rare, appearing at a 4% encounter rate at most in the Safari Zone (and only in a certain area; elsewhere the rate is 1%), and at a 5% encounter rate in Cerulean Cave. They're hard to catch and in the former, they will almost always flee the first chance they get. Beating one, however, will give out the most experience you can get from wild Pokémon, and catching it gives you perhaps the best Special-oriented Stone Wall in the game.

These are the only remakes where the opposite gendered player character doesn't appear in-story, and thus, the only games where you don't get to see the canon names of both playable characters in-game until Sun and Moon, where both protagonists don't get a canon name. HeartGold and SoulSilver adds the opposite gendered playable character into the story (as well as retconning the canon name of the male playable character) and the original opposite gendered playable character of Ruby and Sapphire reprises their role as a rival in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

This Looks Like a Job for Aquaman
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_cce399
comment
This Looks Like a Job for Aquaman: Mimic is a neat move that lets you copy one of your opponent's moves at your choice, but is normally Awesome, but Impractical, as even if the opponent's Pokémon will have a move that your Pokémon will benefit from so much to be worth giving up the turn to copy it, it's usually better and simpler to just switch to a different Pokémon to cover a bad matchup instead of trying to patch up a moveset defiency with Mimic. However for solo Pokémon challenge runs, Mimic becomes an extremely valuable move for most Pokémon. When switching your Pokémon out for another is no longer an option and when most Pokémon lack the movepool to tackle every endgame trainer without significant overlevelling, Mimic can cover those crucial moveset deficiencies and allow you to win at significantly lower levels and more reliably. It typically gets used to copy a vital stat-boosting move (particularly to exploit the Badge Boost glitch), a very useful status-inflicting move, or a vital coverage move a solo Pokémon needs to beat the opponent's team. Bide is normally worthless 99% of the time, but if you're doing a solo run with Eevee or Scyther in Red/Blue, it's necessary to get past the Pokémon Tower without breaking the run and using another Pokémon. Eevee and Red/Blue Scyther can only learn Normal-type damaging moves and can't learn any passive-damaging status moves besides Toxic, while Mimic can't be obtained until after you beat Team Rocket in Silph Co. (which can't be accessed until you complete Pokémon Tower), so Eevee and Red/Blue Scyther would have no way to damage the Ghost-type Gastly used by some mandatory trainers in the Tower. However, (in Gen 1) Bide ignores type immunity and can damage Ghosts, so the move makes a pure solo Pokémon run with Eevee and Red/Blue Scyther possible.

A.I. Breaker
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_d0ea147f
comment
The infamous "Good AI" flag that certain trainers have, which will make such trainers always use their moves with the best type effectiveness. The A.I. Breaker section already covered how it makes no consideration for if the moves are actually damaging moves, but it also ignores if a less-effective move would have actually dealt more damage. The biggest example of this is with Misty's fearsome Starmie, whose Bubble Beam is powerful even against Pokémon that would resist it, but due to her "Good AI", she will always have her Starmie use the much weaker Tackle against Grass and Water Pokémon, making it much easier to beat with Water and Grass Pokémon.

Read the Freaking Manual: The sidequest to trade with the other Gen III games, which also served as a requirement to enter Cerulean Cave and capture Mewtwo. It involves interpreting Braille puzzles visually by comparing the Braille symbols against the manual's Braille alphabet.

comment
Schmuck Bait: A likely unintentional example, but the game and the surrounding media at the time heavily tries to steer you towards using Ghost-type Pokémon to battle Psychic opponents, who in actuality will slaughter any Ghost Pokémon in short order thanks to the only three Pokémon of that type also being Poison-type, which is weak to Psychic, while the Ghosts aren't dealing any strong super-effective damage back. A NPC additionally mentions Bugs as being something Psychics "fear", but most Bug types are part-Poison too, and even then the available Bug moves are all very weak, so even when inflicting double damage they aren't out-damaging strong neutral moves. The actual best Pokémon to use were dual-typed Psychics like Starmie or Exeggutor who could resist the Psychic moves and then hit back with strong STAB or other moves for neutral damage, Pokémon that could hit hard physically to exploit the Psychic-types' typically poor Defense while being able to outspeed them or having enough HP and Special to take multiple hits from them, or if you were lucky enough to get one, Chansey, whose ludicrous HP and good Special stat made it nigh-unkillable by special-based moves.

Dynamic Loading: "Gates," also known as guardhouses or lookout stations, play this role. Thankfully, they usually have something interesting inside, such as an NPC to trade with or one of Prof. Oak's Aides to give you an item. Less interesting are the two Underground Paths which are just long corridors with a hidden item or two, but those are still necessary to get around Saffron City early on.

comment
Easy Levels, Hard Bosses: The latter half of the game; while wild Pokémon and the trainers generally remain about as strong as they were before, the last four gym leaders all have had their Pokémon levels boosted into the 50s. Additionally, the Pokémon of the gym leaders and Elite Four actually have decent movesets now, as they utilize TM/HM moves instead of just having the last four moves their Pokémon naturally learn at their level (e.g. Giovanni's Pokémon actually have Ground-type moves, and Lance's Pokémon aren't just stuck with Normal-type moves and Dragon Rage for damaging attacks).

Anti-Frustration Features: In these games (and only these gamesnote though it can still get it through breeding), Charmander learns Metal Claw at level 13, giving players who chose it an easier time against Brock. Losing any Pokémon battle no longer penalizes you by taking away half your money. Instead, you now lose a set amount of money based on your number of Gym Badges multiplied by the level of your highest-level Pokémon. Though the original penalty for losing remains in Emerald, this new system becomes standard starting in Gen IV.

Limited Sound Effects: Due to the software limitations of the day, two sets of two Pokémon had the exact same cry - Charizard and Rhyhorn shared one, and Poliwag and Ditto shared another. Even more Pokémon had cries that were just sped-up or slowed-down version of the each other - Caterpie and Goldeen, Fearow and Cloyster, Jynx and Exeggutor, etc. Future games did away with this, meaning no two Pokémon introduced in Generation II and beyond have the same cry.

Breakout Character: Charizard is the face of the Red version and one of the most heavily marketed Mons, even receiving two Mega Evolutions in Pokémon X and Y. Pikachu's the biggest one, as it replaced Clefairy as the mascot of the franchise and can be found on just about everything Pokémon-related in one form or another. Meowth to only a slightly lesser extent as a result of becoming one of the lead villains in the anime. Expectedly, the anime's version made a cameo with Jessie and James in Yellow. Jigglypuff was popular enough in Japan to be a semi-recurring character in the anime and is in every entry of the Super Smash Bros. games as a playable fighter. The original Olympus Mon, Mewtwo, got not one, but two movies about it, is playable in three of the Smash Bros. games, and got two Mega Evolutions in X and Y like Charizard. Said Mega Evolutions also have the highest base stats of any Pokémon, matched only by Mega Rayquaza.

Fake Ultimate Mook: There is a reason this trope was formerly named "Level Five Onix." Despite being a massive, menacing snake made out of boulders, Onix has awful stats across the board except for Defense (which is negated by its low HP) and has a double weakness to Grass and Water. Brock's Onix in particular could be taken out easily by those who started with Bulbasaur or Squirtle, and even a Charmander trainer could take it out with relative ease while being cautious not to attack while Onix was using Bide.

Color Wash: The game was enhanced not just for the Super Game Boy, but non-Japanese versions were also enhanced for the Game Boy Color. It uses a similar color palette to how Red and Blue looked on the Super Game Boy, but applied even more garishly in Yellow. The in-battle trainer sprites, instead of a subdued grey-purple/pale, are now colored bright yellow and red, even though yellow and red are notoriously clashing colors. Yellow features redrawn Pokémon battle sprites as well, which likewise use more vibrant colors. There's also the rosy brown tint used for some Pokémon being changed into deep olive of all things, which looks out of place for blue and purple Pokémon using that color scheme. Strangely enough, the Machop line retained that color for the entirety of Generation II.

 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_e4e86215

Fake Difficulty: In the form of withholding critical information from the player. Examples include the following: The most blatant is unlike all other future Gens, nowhere in-game can you see what a move's power and accuracy is, nor any actual effects they have. Information about how type effectiveness behaves with dual-typed Pokémon is also withheld (which isn't helped by the in-game messages displaying hits that are super effective against one type but resisted by the other type as "It's super effective!" or "It's not very effective" even though it equals out to neutral damage), and the existence of the same-type attack bonus isn't told to the player either outside of a single random Bird Keeper who tells you about it if you talk to him again after beating him. When it comes to stone evolutions, the game never tells you that the stone evolutions (besides the Eeveelutions) don't learn any more moves naturally (or only learn one in the case of the Nidos), so many players back then had their stone evolution Pokémon left with crappy moves as they naturally evolved them as soon as they got to Celadon, not knowing they would be losing out on crucial moves like Flamethrower with the Fire types. Information about other battle mechanics like what the stats actually do, what moves are physical and what moves are special, by what degree stats are increased/decreased in battle by stat increasing/decreasing moves, and what each of the status effects actually do is additionally withheld from the player. This esotericness with the game's mechanics is probably why a lot of kids back in the day had any difficulty with these games their first time through, as anyone playing these games nowadays who knows what everything does or at least knows how to browse Bulbapedia to find out will blow through these games with ridiculous ease, even with self-imposed challenges tacked on.

Nerf
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_e545e190
comment
Nerf: The Pickup ability was greatly overhauled to keep it from being the Disc-One Nuke that let players coast through the first half of Ruby and Sapphire. Almost all of the valuable items that could be obtained in its first appearance were removed, and the ones that remained had their frequency lowered. In exchange, various berries were possible to obtain. It was still possible to use it to farm for funds to make the game easier, but it would take way longer, and still not be as effective. In addition, not only is the only Pickup user native to the game (Meowth) not available until after you reach the second gym, but its evolution loses the ability, so a player has to use an underpowered 'mon if they want to keep taking advantage of it. Being Gen 3, the old stat experience system of the original game was replaced with the modern EV system. The nerf is the old system only had a limit to each stat and not an overall limit to the amount of stat experience you could accrue, and the maximum stat exp would increase each stat by 63 points at level 100 (half that at level 50, the typical endgame level range), so you could go max out the stat EXP of every stat and make your Pokémon significantly better at everything. The new EV system, while far more streamlined and easier to work with, now has an overall limit to the amount of stats you can gain from it; each stat can still gain enough to max out at getting 63 points by level 100, but you can only get enough overall EVs to get an overall 127 points to your stats. As a result you can't get your Pokémon far better in every stat, you have to either specialize as you can only max out two stats and then only increase one other stat by a single point if you go that route, or get more modest boosts to all your stats from a more generalist approach, so your Pokémon will have much less of a statistical advantage over the opponents than they did in the original RBY. The Badge boost system is still intact, but the increase to your stats the Badges grant was slightly reduced from 12.5% to 10%, farther weakening the statistical advantage your Pokémon had over opponents. While most Gym Leaders give you considerably more useful TMs compared to what they gave in RBY, Lt. Surge now gives you a Shock Wave TM instead of Thunderbolt, a much weaker move with 60 power compared to Thunderbolt's 95 power. This removes another Disc-One Nuke move the original game handed you. A bunch of changes that occured in Gen 2 and in the prior Gen 3 games were carried over to here to nerf stuff compared to the original RBY games: The Psychic type is the big one; there's now the Steel type to resist them and the Dark type that is both immune and super-effective against them, while now Ghost is super-effective against them like it is meant to be and there's an improved variety of Ghost and Bug moves. And with the Special split that occured in Gen 2, most Psychic Pokémon either have worse Special Attack (the Hypno line) or worse Special Defense (the Alakazam, Starmie, and especially Exeggutor line). However most of this is only relevant in competitive Gen 3 PVP and not for playing through the game; Until you beat the game Dark types aren't around at all and the only Steel types around are the Magneton line, you still have the Gen 1 problem of the only Ghost types and most Bug Pokémon being part Poison type (and an overly large proportion of Gen 1 Pokémon being Poison type), the widely-distributed Dark moves are weak-to-mediocre in power and being Gen 3 they're all Special-based so they won't hit the Psychic types with above-average Special Defense hard, Bug moves still have very limited distribution and the two strong ones in this Gen (Megahorn and Signal Beam) can't even be learned by any of the Gen 1 Bugs, and the TM for the one good Ghost move that is widely-distributed, Shadow Ball, can only be gotten as an expensive prize from the Game Corner. Overall the Psychic type isn't outragously broken like it was in the Gen 1 games and opposing Psychic Pokémon have more options to be handled with, but they still have an unfair advantage in context of just playing through FRLG. Normal types were similarly nerfed by the Fighting type being improved so much since Gen 1, with the available Fighting Pokémon being improved and there being a variety of decent-to-good Fighting moves among both Fighting Pokémon and are more widely-distributed among non-Fighting Pokémon. Additionally many of the better Normal Pokémon were nerfed by the Special split (in particular notorious Gen 1 game breakers Chansey and Tauros have much worse Special Attack now), the Gengar line got Levitate so Normal types can no longer easily cover their inability to hit Ghosts with their STAB by learning a Ground move, and other types having a better variety of moves means Normal types no longer have such an unfair advantage in available STAB options over most other types. There's also the Steel type now existing as another type to resist Normal moves, but as covered in the prior section, Magnemite/Magneton being the only available Steel Pokémon until you beat the game means this is mostly moot. Several other Pokémon that weren't Psychic nor Normal with a high Special stat got a lower base Special Attack or Special Defense after the Special split. Some of the most notable examples includes all the Legendary Birds, all the Eeveelutions, and the Gengar line. The base critical hit rate is now a universal 6.25% and is no longer determined by a Pokémon's base Speed. Besides making critical hits drastically less common (as very few Pokémon in Gen 1 had a lower crit rate than that), this took a big advantage away from faster Pokémon. Similarly moves with the effect of having a higher critical hit rate only have their crit chanced doubled, instead of being increased eightfold. This means high crit rate moves like Slash and Razor Leaf are only critting an eighth of the time now instead of practically every time. The trapping moves (Wrap, Bind, Fire Spin, and Clamp) are completely different in function, unlike in the original RBY they hit just once (with their same pitiful power and accuracy issues) and only prevent the opponent from switching out/fleeing instead of preventing them from making any moves, and then they deal weak residue damage equal to 1/16th of a Pokémon's HP for 2-5 turns. This nerfed them from being game breaking to being not especially useful. When a Pokémon is put to sleep, waking up no longer requires a turn and so they can make a move immediately upon waking up, preventing faster Pokémon from being able to repeatedly put their opponent to sleep without the opponent getting a chance to retaliate. The maximum length Sleep can last was additionally nerfed from 7 turns to 5 turns. The Frozen status was similarly nerfed, as it's no longer permanent without items or being hit by a Fire move, with Pokémon being able to dethaw themselves at a 20% chance every turn. Pokémon will also now be able to make a move immediately upon dethawing. X Accuracy only raises a Pokémon's accuracy by one stage (which works out to a 1.33x increase from a neutral state), instead of granting the Pokémon perfect accuracy with everything regardless of all other factors. This nerf mostly applies in that you can no longer use X Accuracy to sweep entire teams with perfect accuracy OHKO moves. OHKO moves working or not is now based on level instead of Speed, with OHKO moves not working at all if the opponent is of a higher level. This means you can no longer cheese higher levelled opponents with OHKO moves by being faster or after paralyzing them. Dig's power here is significantly lower at 60 instead of the 100 power it had in RBY, making it no longer a Disc-One Nuke move. The move Psychic's secondary effect only reduces Special Defense instead of effectively both Special Attack and Special Defense like it did in the original RBY, and the chance of this effect activating was reduced from 33% to 10%. This also serves as another nerf for the Psychic type, since for all of them this was their main STAB move, and makes switching into them a lot less scary. Similarly after the Special split, Growth only raises Special Attack now by one stage, and Amnesia only raises Special Defense now by two stages. Blizzard's accuracy here is now 70% instead of 90%. Hyper Beam will no longer skip its recharge turn when it KOs an opponent, turning the move from a Game-Breaker to Awesome, but Impractical.

comment
Toxic will often be this, as stalling out opponents is rarely a viable option in the first-generation Pokémon games; stalling moves are limited, non-Rest recovery moves are scarce, critical hits are much more common, and poisoning a Pokémon will prevent them from being inflicted with the much more devastating Sleep, Frozen, and Paralysis statuses. Plus, the first-generation games both downgrade badly poisoned into regular poison when a Pokémon is switched out, and only deplete a poisoned Pokémon's health by 1/16th each turn (making it mostly useless). And while in-game AI opponents won't take advantage of this switching flaw to negate it, you're often able to beat them down much more quickly with conventional moves or by focusing on inflicting Sleep/Paralysis instead.

When it comes to a Pokémon's level-up movepool, they'll generally only learn Normal moves and moves of their respective type(s) — and sometimes, such as with Scyther and Pinsir, not even that! This makes TMs more essential for giving Pokémon diverse movesets, though later games would give most Pokémon at least one move of a different type in their level-up movelist.

Earth Drift: There are several references to real-world countries littered throughout the game. Lt. Surge's gym title was "The Lightning American", Mew is stated to have been previously discovered in the jungles of Guyana, and one Silph Co. scientist explains that he was sent to the company's Tiksi (Ponaya Tunguska in the original Japanese) branch, "in Russian no-man's-land," among others. The official real-life Pokédex, which was never localized, even claimed that the study of Pokémon originated in 18th century France through the efforts of one Baron Tajirin. While these references were kept in the remakes until Generation VI, references to real-world places have been entirely dropped by the following generations.

She also has actual AI, too, so you can't depend on getting lucky with her using Tackle or wasting turns using X Defend. However, after the Special split Starmie has substantially less Special Defense, so you'll be hitting it quite a bit harder with your Grass and Electric moves.

Sequence Breaking
 Pokémon Red and Blue (Video Game) / int_fb111d49
comment
Sequence Breaking: The Seafoam Islands can be skipped entirely by surfing down Route 21 from Pallet Town instead of surfing down Routes 19-20 from Fuchsia City. Lt. Surge, Erika, Koga, Sabrina, and Blaine can be fought in nearly any order. The only constraint is that you have to beat Koga to get to Blaine, since Surf is required. You can also delay fighting Misty for a bit, as to progress beyond Cerulean you just need to help Bill, where you can then go to Vermillion City and complete the S.S. Anne, but you'll need to beat Misty before you can fight any of the other gym leaders as you need to be able to use Cut to reach them. Due to a lack of Developer's Foresight, while the ghost of Marowak in the Pokémon Tower cannot be caught and cannot be battled (without the Silph Scope), it can be distracted with a Poké Doll, which will end the battle and let you pass. This lets you skip the Team Rocket Hideout in the Game Corner, which is only needed for the Silph Scope. In general, trading Pokémon from other games that know HM moves like Cut and Surf can save a lot of time, as you don't have to go out and grab the necessary HMs anymore (unless you want to teach HM moves to more Pokémon, but that can be done afterwards at your leisure). The PC in Pokémon Stadium and the Color Case in Pokémon Stadium 2 allow you to freely transfer items between Generation I games (if you only have one game, starting over after saving the items in the Case works as well). Thanks to this, it's possible to bring a Fresh Water or other drink to the Saffron City guards right after helping Bill, enabling access the rest of Kanto before beating Misty and completely bypassing Rock Tunnel. You can even defeat Lt. Surge before Misty, provided you beat Koga and gain Surf in advance. There is still no way to access the Celadon gym without Cut, so you'll still need to beat Misty before you can fight Erika. This is what led to the developers implementing Green Tea as a key item in the remakes, to prevent new versions of this exploitnote While the remakes couldn't connect to Pokémon Stadium (and thus couldn't use it to transfer items), trading in a Pokémon that was holding a Fresh Water, etc. would have accomplished the same thing.

Because of the relatively primitive engine, sometimes the only clues to a character's identity are in their Pokémon lineup and character dialogue. Team Rocket's Jessie and James confront the player character at or near the end of each Rocket-infested dungeon. Nurse Joy is naturally found at every Pokémon Center. The two trainers in a huddle on Route 6 are replaced with Joe and Giselle. Notably, while Joe and Giselle had a largely antagonistic relationship before they reconciled, the Joe and Giselle of the game are an item. A Jr. Trainer on Route 9 is replaced with a Youngster who proves to be AJ with his sandshrew. The player character can receive Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle from Melanie, Damien, and Officer Jenny, respectively. Damien, notably, is an Adaptational Nice Guy who gives his Charmander away for its own benefit.

comment
You Shouldn't Know This Already: Most mechanics from Generation III games are applied to the Generation I based remakes. However, the game will outright prevent evolution of Golbat and Chansey by friendship level-up, as the player isn't supposed to be aware of the Johto region or National Pokédex until after becoming the Champion.

comment
Critical Hit Class: Any Mon with a high-crit move will crit all the time when it's used, assuming their species' base Speed stat is high enough. For regular moves, faster species have a crit rate of at least 20%, more than 3 times the universal rate later games had.
