List of Pokémon by wild held item (Generation II): Difference between revisions

The other Pokemon in this section don't point out their changed items, so I don't see why this should be any different. Adjusting the phrasing to attempt to clarify, so that readers don't need that specificity being pointed out.
(→‎Generation I held items: If another Pikachu is caught in Yellow using a glitch, it will have a Berry.)

In the Generation I games, there are no held items; however, Pokémon are holding an item by default when traded to a Generation II game. These items are determined by a value in the [[Pokémon data structure in Generation I|Pokémon data structure]] that has no effect in Generation I, and is set to that species's [[catch rate]] upon obtaining it. Therefore, a given Pokémon's catch rate translates into the item it will be holding by default when traded to Generation II.

In {{game|Yellow}}, four Pokémon will have different held items than their Red/Blue counterparts when traded to Generation II. [[Red's Pikachu (game)|The starter Pikachu]]'s held item value is specially set to 163 (as opposed to Pikachu's regular catch rate of 190) when it is obtained, which causes it to hold a [[Light Ball]] when traded over. If another Pikachu is caught in Yellow using a glitch, it will have a Berry. A wild {{p|Kadabra}}'s held item value is set to 96 upon capture (as opposed to 100), which gives it a [[TwistedSpoon]] when traded over. Finally, {{p|Dragonair}} and {{p|Dragonite}}'s actual catch rates are different, having been changed to 27 and 9 respectively in Yellow only. This means Dragonair caught in Yellow will have a held item value of 27 and thus hold a [[Protein]] when traded over, and a wild Dragonite caught in Yellow would have a held item value of 9 and therefore hold an [[Antidote]]. Wild Dragonite cannot normally be found in Yellow, however.

[[Gift Pokémon]] from {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} also have their held item set to a value other than their catch rate. The Pokémon obtained for clearing the [[Gym Leader Castle]] have their held item set to the [[Normal Box]] or [[Gorgeous Box]], depending on whether it was cleared as Round 1 or Round 2. The {{DL|Pokémon Stadium (English)|Amnesia Psyduck}} has its held item set to the [[Normal Box]].
