* In the Japanese and Korean versions, {{p|Phanpy}} and {{p|Donphan}} are found in the {{pkmn2|wild}} in Pokémon Gold while {{p|Teddiursa}} and {{p|Ursaring}} are found in the wild in Pokémon Silver. In the Western localizations, these were switched. This change was not replicated in the international versions of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

* The [[party]] of {{tc|Pokéfan}} Alex, a {{pkmn|Trainer}} found on {{rt|13|Kanto}}, is made of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that have names ending in "king" (Japanese: キング). Due to {{p|Magikarp}} not sharing this trait in the Western releases (its Japanese name is コイキング ''Koiking''), it was replaced by {{p|Seaking}} in order to stay true to the theme. Unlike Magikarp, which is [[level]] 58, the Seaking is level 29 like the rest of his team. In the Korean versions, his team is the same as in the Japanese versions since Magikarp's Korean name is 잉어킹 (''Ingeoking'') and both {{p|Nidoking}} and {{p|Slowking}} also have the word "king" (Korean: 킹) in their Korean names. This was also not redone for {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} since Alex still has a Magikarp in the localizations, which is now level 65.
