* A minimal [[friendship]] system is implemented to track how Pikachu feels about the player and Pikachu will refuse to evolve. This would later be revamped in [[Generation II]], where the system is vastly improved and applies to all Pokémon. | * A minimal [[friendship]] system is implemented to track how Pikachu feels about the player and Pikachu will refuse to evolve.

* Enhanced compatibility with the {{nw|Game Boy Color}} is present outside of Japan, providing color palette changes as the player switches locations, whereas the Japanese version is similar to the previous [[Version|main series]] [[Generation I]] games in where it only has {{nw|Super Game Boy}} support. The ability to print out Pokédex entries using the [[Game Boy Printer]] was also implemented in every regional release. | * Enhanced compatibility with the {{nw|Game Boy Color}} is present outside of Japan, providing color palette changes as the player switches locations, whereas the Japanese version is similar to the previous [[Version|main series]] [[Generation I]] games in where it only has {{nw|Super Game Boy}} support.

As well as reprising the ability to allow players to trade Pokémon between two cartridges via a {{nw|Game Boy}} [[link cable]], Yellow also debuted a new link battle mode, Colosseum 2. While battling another player's Pokémon team had been possible since the release of the Japanese {{2v2|Red|Green}} two years before Yellow's release, Yellow introduced several regulations in Colosseum 2 mode. Battle modes introduced include the [[Pika Cup]] (for Pokémon between [[Level]]s 15 to 20 only; their combined level limit is 50), [[Petit Cup]] (for Pokémon between [[Level]]s 15 to 20, heights under 6'8" (2m), and weights less than 44.1 lbs (20 kg) only) and [[Poké Cup]] (for Pokémon between [[Level]]s 50 to 55 only, and the sum of all entered Pokémon's Levels cannot exceed 155. {{p|Mew}} is not allowed). These three cups would later become standard cups in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium|Stadium}}. | As well as reprising the ability to allow players to trade Pokémon between two cartridges via a {{nw|Game Boy}} [[link cable]], Yellow also debuted a new link battle mode, Colosseum 2.
