*Not officially enforcing the rules until the player has Poké Balls and can catch Pokémon. For example, the {{p|Poochyena}}{{sup/3|RS}}/{{p|Zigzagoon}}{{sup/3|E}} that the player has to save Professor Birch from is not counted as the first encounter on the route, and not counting any other encounters as such until they can catch. Likewise, in the games where the rival battle is immediately after getting the starter Pokémon, the "any that faint must be released" rule is not enforced at that time.
