* The American staff in charge of localizing the games tried to change the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} designs, however, [[Tsunekaz Ishihara]] refused the proposal.<ref>[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/nom/0007/taidan1/page03.html スペシャル対談/3]</ref>

* The blurb on the back of the boxes states that 139 different {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} can be obtained in each game without trading. This, however, includes all Pokémon that the player chooses (i.e., both the {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Kabuto}} families are counted), in which this statement is only true for the {{game|Blue| (Japanese)|Japanese Blue}}. Therefore, the true total of different Pokémon obtainable in one adventure without trading is 124, due to the fact that four Pokémon only evolve once traded.

This, however, includes all Pokémon that the player must choose between (i.e., both the {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Kabuto}} families are counted).. Therefore, the true total of different Pokémon obtainable in one adventure without trading is 124, which excludes the two unchosen starter families, one fossil family, two Eeveelutions, one of Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, and the four Pokémon that only evolve when traded.  
* The {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} depicted during [[Professor Oak]]'s introductory lecture is a {{p|Nidorino}}. However, the [[cry]] that plays belongs to {{p|Nidorina}}. This is actually a mistake that was carried over from the Japanese {{2v2|Red|Green}} as well as from the {{game|Blue| (Japanese)|Japanese Blue}}.

* Although these games are improved and combined versions of the Japanese {{2v2|Red|Green}} and {{game|Blue| (Japanese)|Japanese Blue}}, their respective special borders are still retained from their original Japanese versions, which are displayed only on a {{nw|Super Game Boy}} or in [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|Stadium]] and [[Pokémon Stadium 2|Stadium 2]] when played through the [[Game Boy Tower]], which requires the [[Transfer Pak]] for {{nw|Nintendo 64}}.
