===Battle system===
===Hidden battle system===
Data exists for a {{pkmn|battle}} situation when the {{pkmn|Trainer}} has no {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, though it isn't actually used when entering a battle with no Pokémon in the final release. In this case, selecting any option other than <sc>Run</sc> shows the message "''Hurry, get away!''" This may have been a prototype for the initial battle with the [[wild Pokémon|wild]] {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} at the start of the {{player}}'s adventure, as the player has no Pokémon at that point. It could also have been planned for a possible battle against a wild {{p|Spearow}} with Pikachu unable to battle, making it closer to the events of the {{pkmn|anime}}.

===Music===
===Leftover music theme===
An unused music theme has been encountered in the internal data. It is not known where it would be used, but it is possible that it relates to the aforementioned "no Pokémon" {{pkmn|battle}} system. However, it is not stored in either the battle, overworld or [[cave]] soundbanks. It is located in the minigame and "special Trainer" ([[Jessie]] and [[James]]) soundbanks, where the [[Pikachu's Beach]] music is stored, which is partly why this track only exists in {{game|Yellow}}.

[[File:Pikachu's Beach Unused Bonus.png|thumb|right|200px|The unused +750 points score]]
There is unused radness data for a score of +750 points in the [[Pikachu's Beach]] minigame. It is impossible to achieve this score, regardless of how many flips {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} does, or how they were performed.

===In-game trade===
===Unused in-game trades===
The {{p|Butterfree}}-for-{{p|Beedrill}} [[List of in-game trades|in-game trade]] {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}} remains.<ref>[http://iimarck.us/i/trades/ In-game Trades]</ref> The Japanese version of {{game|Yellow}} kept the name from the Japanese Blue while the English version renamed it to '''<sc>Stinger</sc>'''.

Two additional in-game trades were also planned but scrapped, probably to compensate for the removal of the in-game trades in [[Cerulean City]] and [[Vermilion City]]. They are of a Pidgeot for Pidgeot trade while the other is of a Mew for Mew trade. In the Japanese version of Yellow, both received Pokémon have the same nickname, まつみや ''Matsumiya''; however, in the English localizations, {{p|Pidgeot}} is nicknamed '''<sc>Marty</sc>''' while the {{p|Mew}} is nicknamed '''<sc>Bart</sc>'''.
===Default player and rival names===
The unused default names for {{ga|Red}} (<sc>[[Nintendo|Ninten]]</sc>) and {{ga|Blue}} (<sc>{{wp|Sony}}</sc>) remain unaltered.<ref>[http://acmlm.kafuka.org/board/thread.php?pid=18912#18912 Intresting and funny in Pokemon Red - Board 2]</ref> In the Japanese version, Blue's unused default name remains unaltered from {{game|Blue| (Japanese)}} while Red's was subtly altered by gaining an extra digit (ゲーフリ1).<ref>[http://iimarck.us/i/default-names/ Default names]</ref>
