--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get Your Diploma
To get your Diploma in the game...complete your pokedex getting all 150 entries, then go to the Game Freak Building and talk to the guy on the second floor (The guy that's not on a computer), if you completed your pokedex, he will give you your diploma.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
99 of Any Item
To get 99 of any item, first put the item you want to multiply in the sixth item slot. Now use FLY and go to Viridian City. Talk to the old man almost all the way north of the town. When he asks if you are in a hurry, say no and watch him catch a weedle. Right after that, fly to Fuchsia city. Make your way south and, when you you reach the water's edge, use SURF and make your way to Seafoam island.
When you get to seafoam island, swim up and down the beach until you run into a Pokemon called "M" (a glitch like Missingno.) Once you see him, kill him or run away. DO NOT CATCH HIM! After that, you should have 99 of your sixth item!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fight Land Creatures in Water
To fight creatures that normally live on land in water, go to the water around Cinnabar Island or Seafoam Islands (The only place you can be randomly attacked while swimming.) Swim along the shore of any island and you will fight land creatures. (You have to swim on a place where the square is half land and half water.)
Instead of fighting a set group of monsters in the water, you actually fight monsters from the last place you were. So to get safari zone monsters, you need to go to the section of the safari zone with that monster, let your time run out, then go to the coast. Using this trick I have caught Kangaskhan, Scyther, and Tauros!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get MissingNo.
Warning! Catch missingno in the red version may delete your old game and prevent you from saving any other games.
To get MissingNo (a glitch) go to Cinnabar Island and go into the Pok�mon Research Labratory and trade with anyone in the first room. Then leave the Lab and go to the EAST of Cinnabar Island and surf up and down on the part where the land meets the water. Eventually the battle screen will come up and the screen goes black for about 5 seconds.
Once you find him I suggest you use a Level 30 to 40 Pokemon. This is because Missing No., even at Lv. 80, has a VERY low defense rating. So get him down pretty low. Even at low he is still extremely difficult to catch. So next get a Pokemon that knows a sleep move and put him to sleep. Follow this up with a couple Ultra Balls and you should have him.
NOTE: Catching MissingNo. may cause minor glitches. Also note that if he evolves (i.e., by receiving a Rare Candy) he will turn into a Khangiskahn.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get the Mimic TM
Buy a Pokedoll in Celadon Mart, then FLY to Saffron and talk to the Copycat. She will give you the Mimic TM
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Level 100+ Pokemon
Follow these instructions to catch pokemon with really high levels.
Talk to the old man in Viridian City who shows you how to catch pokemon.
Fly directly to Cinnabar Island.
Put your strongest pokemon on your team.
You might want to save now.
Surf on the shore where the land touches water.
Keep Surfing until you run into one of these strong pokemon.
These pokemon are well above level 100. Unfortunately, they will revert back to Level 100 if they gain any experience points. Rare Candy is the only thing that raises their level. They can be used in a two-player battle without losing their level, so have fun liquidating your friends!
NOTE: This is a bug in the game. It will not work in newer versions of Pokemon and may crash your game if you try it.

CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS Pok�mon EDITIONS
Intro
Instead of Jigglypuff/Nidoran and Snorlax/Gengar (is it?) battling, you get to see a darkened Pok�mon running at you on all fours. As it gets closer, you realise it's PIKACHU! During this various clips are shown of him doing a flying kick, riding a surfboard, flying on balloons, and then it shows him close up, and his cheeks start to spark, and then he lets rip with a Giant thundershock! The title screen then comes on, which is Pikachu saying Pikachu (duh). It has new music too, sounds similar to the casino in Celadon City. Much better intro.
Graphics
EVERY Pok�mon in the Pok�dex has been redrawn and they look a lot better. Also, Gary changes art throughout the game. Not the sprite onscreen, but the picture of him during a battle. There are three different drawings. Brock too is different (i.e. he is wearing a shirt), and Misty also looks similar to the show (the shirt with the straps on, no bathing suit for her
anymore).
Starting Pok�mon
Instead of choosing between Squirtle, Charmander and Bulbasaur at the beginning, Professor Oak stops you at the grass (you get to move one step further too. Ooooh :) ) and then captures a Pikachu! He brings it back to his lab and then lets you have it! As for Gary (your rival) if you look at the Pokeball on the desk, he shoves you out of the way and takes it. It's an Eevee! Then you fight. Later in the game, after battling Gary 3 times more, when you face him in the Silph Co. Building, his Eevee will have evolved into one of it's three other forms (Flareon in my case). Whether or not his choice of Pok�mon change based on what Eevee he plans on getting is unknown. The team Gary faced me with at the end of the game was: Sandslash, Alkazam,
Exeggutor, Magneton, Cloyster, Flareon.
Pikachu
Pika-pi! Of course, the game is mostly about Pikachu now, so of course he has new stuff!
Talking to Pikachu
Pikachu follows you around on the map! Unless he fainted. You can talk to him at any time, bringing up a picture of his face, showing if he is happy or sad. If happy, sprite on the main screen will jump up and down, really fast if super happy! If really upset he will turn around and not look at you! When he sees Bill The Pokemaniac as a Pok�mon, question marks appear over his head! And when you go to the Pok�mon meeting in Vermillion City, love hearts appear when he
sees the other Pok�mon!
Pikachu's Moves
Pikachu learns new moves! Chief amongst them is Thunderbolt, which he gets at level 26. Here is the list of his moves:
Start Thundershock
Start Growl
Lvl 6 Tail Whip
Lvl 8 Thunderwave
Lvl 11 Quick Attack
Lvl 15 Double Team
Lvl 20 Slam
Lvl 26 Thunderbolt
Lvl 34 Agility
Lvl 41 Thunder
Lvl 50 Light Scren
Thunder Stone
Pikachu will NOT use the Thunderstone! Thus leaving this question: How the heck do you get a Raichu? (There are no Pikachu in the game besides the one you start
with). Just as on the cartoon; Pikachu chooses not to evolve, deciding it will fight Raichu for the honour of Pikachu everywhere.
Team Rocket
Yes, it's true, Team Rocket appear in the game!Just as you are about to leave Mt. Moon they come running over and battle you! They fight with Ekans, Meowth and Koffing! After you beat them they dissappear, like Giovanni. You meet them three times more, in the Casino/Rocket base (just before Giovanni), Lavender Tower (you beat them to save Mr. Fuji, and they have Arbok and Weezing now! (But still just Meowth) And finally the Silph co. Building, just before Giovanni). And yes, just like the cartoon, they are easily beaten!
Anything different during the game
Nurse Joy
Nurse Joy is at every Pok�mon Centre, with her Chansey!
Pok�mon sprites
Chansey has been redrawn in it's pen at Fuschia City. Also there is an Oddish sprite and a Sandshrew, and a Bulbasaur. The last three are all in a house in Cerulean City.
Officer Jenny
Officer Jenny is in Vermillion City.
Two Pikachus?
The hut at the bottom of Fuschia City, inside, there is a Pikachu walking around!
Computer Options/Boxes
Not too clear on this, but you probably get more places to store Pok�mon.
Trading
The people you trade with are generally asking for different things in this
game. For example, I think the old man in the lab at Cinnabar Islands trades
Rhydon for Golduck (not sure tho).
Pok�mon learn moves faster?
I'm not sure about anyone besides Pikachu learning new moves, but, I have noticed Pok�mon learn skills faster. Butterfree for example gets confusion as soon as it evolves, rather than level 12! It gets all it's other skills faster too! Jeez, how much of an advantage does a Poke Yellow player have
over the others??
Casino
Pok�mon for sale:
Scyther 6500
Pinsir 6500
Porygon 9999
Vulpix 1000 (The only place you can get it?)
Abra 230
Wigglytuff 2680
JIGGLYPUFF!
If you talk to Jigglypuff in the Pok�mon Centre at the Pewter City Gym, she sings her lullabye! To the correct tune! And then if you talk to Pikachu, he is asleep!
Old Man In Viridian City
You know the old guy who blocks your path or something? The guy who shows you how to use a Pokeball? (We'll just ignore Professor Oak using one earlier...) Instead of trying to get Weedle and failing, this time he tries to get Rattatta and he succeeds! Sometimes, anyway.
Missing Pok�mon
To ensure that Pok�mon Yellow offers no distinct advantage over the previous versions/colours (yeah right, you can get Charmander, Bulbasaur AND Squirtle?? O--k, fair...), 11 Pok�mon are unattainable again. Although I can't be certain at this time, here are my guesses as to which ones they are (note there are 13, so at least 2 of these must be wrong, or perhaps not....):
Weedle (None in Viridian Forest or anywhere else, but many "Bug Catchers" have them)
Kakuna (again, many bug catchers have them)
Beedrill (One of the Bug Catchers near Cerulean City has two of them though)
Jynx (though Lorelei of the Elite Four has one. The original place for the trade has been replaced by the "Bulbasaur House.")
Raichu: Using the Thunderstone on Pikachu does NOT WORK. He will not take it!
And since there are No other Pikachus in the game besides your starting one...... ?? (Lt. Surge has one)
Electabuzz
Magmar
Ekans (No nest on map, unable to find. Jesse has one)
Arbok
Meowth (No nest on map, unable to find. Team Rocket have one :) )
Persian
Koffing (No nest on map. Unable to find. James has one :) )
Weezing
I'd say that not being able to get Ekans, Koffing and Meowth is definite (since the game follows the cartoon more so than the others, and they are the villain Pok�mon). Jynx probably does exist to trade still, but I can't find it. Electabuzz and Magmar are likely removed to make up for both Scyther and Pinsir (if you remember, Magmar and Pinsir are in the blue game, Scyther and Electabuzz in thr red.). That would leave Raichu as the other possible collectable)
Extra Pok�mon in this version
I do not mean brand new Pok�mon (see the upcoming Silver or Gold, and the
cartoon for Togepi :) ), but I mean certain Pok�mon you could only get one or
the other of in the previous versions.
a) Scyther and Pinsir
BOTH are in this version :) Both can be found in the same area in the Safari Zone.
b) Charmander
After Nugget Bridge, there is a man standing on a raised bit of land. If you talk to him he'll ask you something, choose the top answer and you get a Charmander!
- Charizard can now learn fly (HM02). Seems right.
- Maybe the guy is Damien from "Charmander, The Stray Pok�mon."
c) Squirtle
In Vermillion City, after the trip on the St. Anne, talk to Officer Jenny and
she'll ask you something. Choose the top again and you'll get a Squirtle!
- You have to beat Lt. Surge first tho.....
- This seem to have nothing to do with "Here comes The Squirtle Squad." There's only one of them!
d) Bulbasaur
In Cerulean City, there is a house with an Oddish, a Sandshrew and a lady stood next to what looks like a Bulbasaur. Talk to her, and when you have to choose, choose the top answer..... then when you have to choose again, do the same. You get Bulbasaur!!
- I think this might be something similar to the episode "Bulbasaur and The Hidden Village." Melanie could be the girl. After all, there is an Oddish present.
e) The four "Tradies" (Gengar, Golem, Alkazam, Machamp)
They are available within the game! Or.... so I have heard. Somewhere people trade you wither something for them, or something for their "previous form" (example, someone trades you a Graveler, and it then evolves to Golem because it has been traded). Recently I found Machamp!
i) Machamp - In the tunnel that goes between Vermillion and Cerulean, in the north entrance, a kid trades you Machoke if you give him Cubone.... but what? When traded, Machoke evolves! You got yourself a Machamp!!!
f) Psyduck
- Just north of Vermillion City, in the grassy area where there are trainers, there is a pond, and if you surf on it for a while, you get to fight a Psyduck! Psy-ai-ai!
g) Farfetch'd
- South of the hut where you get the Good Rod, there are two grassy areas. In the southern most one (you have to go into the bizarre maze on the left and "cut" through a plant to get to this grassy area), about one in 15 encounters ia a Farfetch'd! You can get them in the wild! Far-far-fetch'd!
h) Shellder
- Fish with the Super Rod along the cycling road, you can get a Shellder!
Can you catch 150 Pok�mon?
Regardless of how many of the Pok�mon on the list turn out to be catchable, even if you can get all 150, you can't "get" all 150. I count 145 minimum as the
very most you can get (without trading with a friend): You still can only have one of the Hitmon's from the karate dojo: Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan
b) You can still only get either Omanyte or Kabuto (thus only Omastar or Kabutops)
c) You only get one Eevee, hence one evolution, so you can;t get the other two. However, you can SEE two evolutions if you do it right (remember Gary has one.).
Of course, look on Bill's computer and you see all three anyway.
And then there are the missing 13 on the list above.... bringing the number down to 132. Furthermore, it looks like you can get Machamp, but not Gengar,
Alkazam or Golem, so in total, I believe you can catch 129 without trading That's still more than the other colours though. The most you will ever SEE is 148 without trading/battling another cartridge. (whichever of the ancient Pok�mon you don't get, you'll never see in an evolved form, unless you count the bones of the Kabutops in the museum. Which you don't). Without trading, you can never see a Golem either.
Unknown Dungeon
The layout of the last dungeon is slightly different, with more water sections. Also, there are different Pok�mon inside from previously. These are the ones I have run into: Ryhorn, Rhydon, Ditto, Gloom, Golbat, Chansey, Graveller, Weepinbell, Sandslash, Likcitung, Seaking (use Super Rod) and, of course, Mewtwo.
