* Before [[Generation IV]], Pokémon Eggs hatched at level 5, but some Pokémon could be caught in the wild as low as level 2. In-game trades allow these to be traded for Pokémon which normally cannot be found below level 5. In Pokémon Blue (Japan), a level 2 {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Rattata}} and level 3 {{p|Jigglypuff}} can be traded for {{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Poliwag}} and {{p|Mr. Mime}}, respectively. In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, a level 3 {{p|Pikachu}} obtained from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} can be traded for a level 3 {{p|Skitty}}, which in turn can be traded in {{game|Emerald}} for a level 3 {{p|Meowth}}.
