* {{ga|Blue}} (Green in the Japanese versions), the rival of Generation I, is now the leader of the [[Viridian City]] Gym. [[Giovanni]] is nowhere to be seen, though he is clearly mentioned many times, as Team Rocket aims to find him. {{ga|Red}}, the Generation I protagonist, appears in Johto's [[Mt. Silver]], serving as the game's true final challenge, his highest level Pokémon being a level 81 Pikachu. Red also has a {{p|Snorlax}} at level 75, a {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}}, all level 77, and a level 73 {{p|Espeon}}. It is interesting to note that all of the Pokémon on the team are all involved in some sort of event in Pokémon Yellow; Pikachu is the starter, Snorlax is a significant roadblock, Blastoise, Venusaur and Charizard are given to the player, and Eevee is discovered in [[Celadon Mansion]], like an event. | * {{ga|Blue}} (Green in the Japanese versions), the rival of Generation I, is now the leader of the [[Viridian City]] Gym.

I just had a double shot of espresso and I am wired!" He then says that he was once good at capturing Pokémon, and asks if the player believes him. However, he does not show the player how to catch Pokémon regardless of whether the player answers "Yes" or "No." This may be due to the [[Old Man Glitch]] in {{2v2|Red|Blue}}. | ||

* The player can meet and battle many of the characters from the previous games, including the rival of the original games, Green. After completing the quests in Kanto, the player can access a new area in Johto, Mt. Silver, and battle Red, the protagonist of Generation I. Another quite notable difference is that [[Koga]], Gym Leader of [[Fuchsia City]] (now a member of the [[Elite Four]]), has been replaced by his daughter, [[Janine]]. | * The player can meet and battle many of the characters from the previous games, including the rival of the original games, Green.

In turn, the Pokémon gravesites were moved into the newly added Soul House. Also, the player can only go on the first floor due to added security (a safety precaution as a result of Team Rocket's takeover of [[Johto Radio Tower|Johto's Radio Tower]]). Only the first floor has been written in the game's code; even with the use of a [[GameShark]], the higher floors are inaccessible. | ||
