Professor Oak's Laboratory: Difference between revisions

|generation={{gen|I}}, {{gen|II}}, {{gen|III}}, {{gen|IV}}

Professor Oak's Laboratory appears in {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. In [[Generation I]] and the [[Generation III]] remakes, it is where Oak gives the {{player}} their [[starter Pokémon]] and a [[Pokédex]].

The lab is a small building near the player's house that has been slightly modified in every game. In {{game|Red and Blue|s}} the sign says "''Here is the Institute of Dr. Okido.''" in Japanese, and "''Oak Pokémon Research Lab''" in the English language versions. Inside are three of Professor Oak's aides, two men and one woman, a couple of shelves full of books, a table with three [[Poké Ball]]s, a computer, two blank [[Pokédex]]es, and two tips for the player. In {{game|Yellow}} the lab is the same as Red and Blue, except there is only one Poké Ball on the table, and next to the table stands a trash can. {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} have the lab almost unchanged except recoloring, only adding two windows, removing a table and adding another shelf to bookshelves. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, other than the significant graphical enhancements, the laboratory also has two plants in the entrance, a mysterious machine, books on the floor, two regular machines in the corner, and a window. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the building is modified to look 3D, but still has the overall design from Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.

===In ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''===

*If the player's Pokémon takes damage in his/her first battle against their rival in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, their Pokémon will be healed after the battle.

*Professor Oak's lab's iconic theme is not played in Generation IV, with the background music instead being Pallet Town's theme. The only way to hear the lab theme is to listen to the Pokégear radio.

* In {{game|Yellow}}, there is a trash can is on the right side of the table containing the starter Pokémon, unlike in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}. This effectively blocks the player from walking to the other side of the table to collect Eevee where the rival can't push them.
