In the [[Generation I]] games there is [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|unused]] {{pkmn|Trainer}} data for Prof. Oak. This implies that Oak was originally going to be able to be battled.
In the [[Generation I]] games there is [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|unused]] {{pkmn|Trainer}} data for Prof. Oak. This implies that the player was supposed to battle him at some point in the game.


In the data, Oak has Level 66 {{p|Tauros}}, Level 67 {{p|Exeggutor}}, Level 68 {{p|Arcanine}}, Level 70 {{p|Gyarados}} and one of the Kanto {{pkmn2|starter}}s at Level 69. This places his strength on-par with the player's rival and the [[Pokémon Champion|Pokémon League Champion]]. As well, four of his Pokémon are identical to the ones used by the Champion, only higher level, so originally Oak may have been intended to be in the game as the Champion, or at least another high-ranking Trainer. This is supported by an email on the PC in Oak's lab, in which the Pokémon League issues a challenge to all Trainers, then specifically requests Oak to come visit them.

The only known ways to battle Oak are by performing the {{DL|Mew glitch|Ditto glitch}} with a {{stat|Special}} stat of 226 or by performing the [[old man glitch]] with {{MN}} as the character in the 3rd, 5th or 7th slot of the player's name. These teams cannot be battled when using the old man glitch; they can only be battled via the Ditto glitch if the wild Ditto's {{stat|Attack}} is lowered by 4, 5, or 6 stages (each will yield a different one of the three teams).
