Easter egg: Difference between revisions

In Pokémon {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as their remakes {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, there is a [[S.S. Anne#Rumors|truck]] which appears in the [[S.S. Anne]]'s port, which serves no evident purpose except as scenery. It is not seen in regular gameplay, as it requires the player to use {{m|Surf}} before the player obtains the HM for it and has the Soul Badge to make the field move usable. The map in which the truck is located is only normally accessible before the player can obtain {{m|Surf}} but is no longer accessible after the player receives {{HM|01|Cut}} and the S.S. Anne departs. There are a number of ways around this problem. One is trading a Pokémon that knows Cut into the game, thus making the initial trip to the S.S. Anne for {{HM|01}} unnecessary. Another involves getting the HM from the ship's Captain then battling a Trainer and losing. This leads to the player blacking out and running to the [[Pokémon Center]] without the ship leaving. 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, but was proven false.
