*In [[Generation I]], a [[truck]] appears as scenery in the [[S.S. Anne]]'s port, though it is only visible if the player actively seeks it out. Due to the scarcity of scenery in the Generation I games, as they were on a less powerful system, rumors began to spring up about the availability of {{p|Mew}} through a [[Poké Ball]] that could be found underneath. Though the rumor has long since been proven false, the truck makes a reappearance in the [[Generation III]] remakes.
