In Pokémon {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as their remakes {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, there is a truck which appears in the S.S. Anne's port which serves no evident purpose except as scenery. With scenery being very sparse in the [[Generation I]] games, and this being one of the few sprites with no other purpose than to exist in one spot, fans began speculating that another purpose existed for this truck, and that it could perhaps be moved with {{m|Strength}}. Thus, a popular rumor sprang up that a [[Poké Ball]] containing {{p|Mew}} could be found underneath. [[Image:SS_Truck.png|thumb|left|250px|The truck, as it appears in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}]] The only flaw with this was that the [[HM]] for {{m|Strength}} could only be obtained after getting Cut, which required the S.S. Anne leaving. Players found ways around this by trading Pokémon knowing Cut to other games which did not have the HM. The rumor was proven false. | In Pokémon {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as their remakes {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, there is a truck which appears in the [[Vermilion Harbor|S.S.

Another method to prevent the ship setting sail was to challenge a Trainer after obtaining Cut, and losing the battle on purpose. The player would be teleported to the Pokémon Center in Vermilion City, and the ship would not leave the dock, making it accessible later in the game when the player had obtained Strength and Surf. However, leaving the ship there wasn't necessary, since the [[Generation I]] games have a [[glitch]] that causes the ship to reappear after it has left, with all trainers unbeaten and all items obtainable. To perform this glitch, the player must stand one tile above and to the left of the sailor guarding the harbor; take a step right and hit the Start button at the same time, causing the menu to pop up; save and reboot; verify that the player is facing right and without moving, select a Pokémon to Surf and verify that it will be surfing on top of the sailor and walk down to the harbor, where the S.S. Anne sits at the dock. | Another method to prevent the ship setting sail was to challenge a Trainer after obtaining Cut, and losing the battle on purpose.
