* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, there is a {{tc|Scientist}} at the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Cinnabar Island]] who will trade a Raichu for an {{p|Electrode}}. If the player talks to him after the trade, he will mention that the Raichu evolved, which is not possible. This mistake was due to the original translation of the script of the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese Blue]] (in which this person traded a Graveler for a Kadabra) rather than that of {{game|Red and Green|s}}. This error was corrected in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, as the script was retranslated. | * In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, there is a {{tc|Scientist}} at the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Cinnabar Island]] who will trade a Raichu for an {{p|Electrode}}.

However, its Stadium entry claims it can only discharge up to 10,000 volts. This is likely a translation error due to the way numbers are read in Japanese, where 100,000 literally reads "ten ten-thousands". | ||

* Although {{p|Pikachu}} is the starter of {{game|Yellow}}, it is not possible to directly evolve it into Raichu in the game, and must be traded in from {{2v2|Red|Blue}}. This inability to evolve Pikachu is a reference to [[Ash's Pikachu]] in the anime. | * Although {{p|Pikachu}} is the starter of {{game|Yellow}}, it is not possible to directly evolve it into Raichu in the game, and must be traded in from {{2v2|Red|Blue}}.
