This was the first installment that put emphasis on [[legendary Pokémon]] being actual legends in-game, a stark contrast to {{p|Mewtwo}} and the [[legendary birds]] of Generation I. [[Ecruteak City]] fleshed out the legends of {{p|Ho-Oh}} and [[legendary beasts|the three beasts]], their relationship with one another and the story behind their departure (the [[Burned Tower]]). {{p|Suicune}} was, unlike {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Entei}}, unavoidable in Crystal Version if the player wanted to beat the game; the remakes HeartGold and SoulSilver give the same treatment to Ho-Oh and {{p|Lugia}} respectively. Lugia was also glimpsed by an elderly man in Ecruteak City, and others, who stated it looked like a dragon in the sky. Even the uncatchable {{p|Celebi}} was mentioned as the "Forest's Protector" at the shrine in [[Ilex Forest]].

The [[Kimono Girls]] upheld ancient tradition in both battling Pokémon and dancing. The buildings in both Ecruteak City and [[Violet City]] have an older structure to them as well. The player must navigate Johto and Kanto, beating the new Elite Four, sixteen Gym Leaders and the original [[Pokémon Champion]] {{ga|Red}}. This is after defeating the newly revitalized [[Team Rocket]], searching for the fallen [[Giovanni]]. The second generation expanded upon trading through use of [[held item]]s evolution through the addition of [[happiness]], and [[breeding]] to attain pre-evolution or baby Pokémon. Kurt offered a more traditional means of creating Poké Balls via [[Apricorns]] which proved variably superior to manufactured Poké Balls. Johto is physically connected to Kanto and these games added depth to both regions.
