A major Easter egg in the game is [[S.S. Anne#Rumors|the truck]] from the [[Generation I|first generation]] games. In Pokémon {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as their remakes {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, 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. 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. There were a number of ways that players went around this problem. The first, and most obvious was trading a Pokémon that knew Cut into their game. The second involved getting the HM from the Ship's Captain then battling a Trainer and losing, having them run to the [[Pokémon Center]] without the ship leaving. They could progress through the game until Surf and Strength were acquired and then attempt the truck. The rumor was proven false.
