While the game's title has become widely accepted as simply ''Pokémon Yellow'', its officially recognized name outside of Japan is not entirely certain. On the boxart for most English versions, the expression ''Special Pikachu Edition'' replaces the series' then-current slogan ''[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]]'' below the Pokémon logo, while ''Yellow Version'' is at the bottom, near where Red and Blue had theirs. However, the expression ''Special Pikachu Edition'' is repeated on the box's opening and spine. | While the game's title has become widely accepted as simply ''Pokémon Yellow'', its officially recognized name outside of Japan is not entirely certain.
