==Trivia==
===Errors===
*On page 8, the guide states that [[Wurmple]]'s evolution is affected by the time of day. However, Wurmple's evolution is based on its [[personality value]].
**Interestingly, in the Pokédex that the guide contains, the guide correctly states that Wurmple's evolutions are random on pages 120 and 121.
**On the same page, the guide states that Pokémon in "Egg Group 0" cannot produce [[eggs]]. However, the table contains many Pokémon that are [[Gender unknown (Egg Group)|genderless]] but can breed with [[Ditto]].
*On page 10, a tip states that breeding two of the same Pokémon will make the resulting Egg hatch faster. This only makes the eggs become available faster, and has no effect on hatching steps.
*On page 19, the guide states that you can choose between the [[Water (type)|Water]]-type [[Mudkip]], the ''[[Grass (type)|Grass]]''-type [[Torchic]], or the ''[[Fire (type)|Fire]]''-type [[Treecko]].
*A note on page 29 states that none of the three starter Pokémon can learn [[Cut]] from HM01. However, Treecko can learn Cut via the HM.
*A tip on page 31 tells the reader to save a Premier Ball that is given to them in Rustboro, stating that this ''strong'' Poké Ball would be better off used on a rare Pokémon. The Premier Ball is no different from a normal Poké Ball in usage.
*On page 35, [[Brawly]]'s signature type is stated to be [[Flying (type)|Flying]], and the recommended types are [[Fighting (type)|Fighting]] and [[Psychic (type)|Psychic]].
**On the next page, his team overview shows that [[Meditite]] is pure Fighting. Meditite has the dual typing of Fighting and Psychic.
*[[Wattson]]'s team on page 44 shows a [[Voltorb]] that is [[Electric (type)|Electric]]/[[Steel (type)|Steel]]. Voltorb is a pure Electric Pokémon.
**This error is mentioned again on the same page. The guide states that Wattson has two Steel-types, yet he only has one: his [[Magneton]].
*[[Flannery]]'s team on page 59 shows a pure Fire-type [[Camerupt]]. Camerupt also has the [[Ground (type)|Ground]] type.
*[[Juan]]'s team on page 87 contains a pure-Water [[Kingdra]]. Kingdra is part Water and [[Dragon (type)|Dragon]].
*[[Glacia]]'s team on page 95 contains a Water and [[Ice (type)|Ice]]-type [[Glalie]]. However, Glalie only has the Ice type. Interestingly, her first Glalie has the correct typing.
*The strategy for [[Wallace]] on page 96 states that all of his Pokémon are weak to Electric-type moves. His [[Whiscash]] is immune to Electric, and his [[Ludicolo]] takes neutral damage.
*In the Pokédex starting on page 114, there are multiple errors.
**Mudkip is stated to be Water and Ground, when in fact it is pure Water.
**[[Gyarados]] is stated to be weak against Grass. It is neutral to the type. No other Water/Flying types have this distinction.
