 * Most [[route]]s were shortened, but cities and towns generally remained the same size except [[Celadon City]], which shrank slightly.
 * [[Viridian Forest]] is unavailable as a standalone area, being replaced by shrubs located in a small section of {{rt|2|Kanto}}.
-** There is no grass within these shrubs, so technically wild Pokémon cannot be caught in the Viridian Forest. Wild Pokémon are still available elsewhere in the grass of {{rt|2|Kanto}}.

 * [[Mt. Moon]] is dramatically reduced in size, now consisting of only one base floor with a couple of connectors.
 * [[Diglett's Cave]] and [[Rock Tunnel]] have a similar layout as they did before, but reduced in size.

 * A volcano has destroyed [[Cinnabar Island]], leaving a water-filled crater behind. However, the [[Pokémon Center]] is still available as usual, as the only building left. {{ga|Blue}} mentions that the "whole town" disappeared, which may imply that the Pokémon Center was destroyed and rebuilt.
 * The main cave of [[Seafoam Islands]] is unavailable. As a result, no wild Pokémon can be found in the Seafoam Islands.
-* Route 23 has been reduced to a short path leading between {{ka|Victory Road}}'s exit and [[Indigo Plateau]].
+* The {{rt|23|Kanto}} has been reduced to a short path between {{ka|Victory Road}}'s exit and [[Indigo Plateau]].
-* {{ka|Victory Road}}'s length has been shortened, and no longer includes the barriers, boulders, and pressure sensors. No Trainers are found, except for one battle with [[Silver (game)|the player's rival]] as part of the storyline.

 * The [[Cerulean Cave]] is gone, though a man near the cave ruins does mention the dungeon, and a hidden item called the [[Berserk Gene]] can be found in the water near its former entrance.
 Changes concerning the wild Pokémon available in Kanto:
-* Pokémon seen in the wild are different: many Generation II Pokémon can be found not only in Johto, but in Kanto as well.

 * Some Pokémon that were previously restricted to the {{Safari|Kanto}} can be caught in wild areas, such as {{p|Rhyhorn}} in {{ka|Victory Road}} and {{p|Kangaskhan}} in [[Rock Tunnel]].
 * {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}} are unavailable, which may imply that they have already been caught in Generation I.

 Changes concerning other people found in Kanto:
 * {{ga|Red}}, the Generation I protagonist, appears in Johto's [[Mt. Silver]], serving as the game's true final challenge. His highest level Pokémon is a level 81 Pikachu. Red also has a {{p|Snorlax}} at level 75, a {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Venusaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}}, each at level 77, and a level 73 {{p|Espeon}}. The first five Pokémon are specially obtainable in Pokémon Yellow.
-* The {{ka|old man}} in Viridian City has now had his coffee, and says, "Hey, kid! I just had a double shot of espresso and I am wired!" He references the fact that in Generation I he taught the player how to catch Pokémon, and asks if the player believes him, but does not attempt to teach this time around.
+* In the English version, and languages other than Japanese, the {{ka|old man}} in Viridian City has now had his coffee, and says, "Hey, kid! I just had a double shot of espresso and I am wired!" In the Japanese version, he lets up a hiccup referencing the fact that he was drunk in the Generation I games. In both versions, he also references the fact that in Generation I he taught the player how to catch Pokémon, but does not attempt to teach this time around.
 * [[Bill]]'s house ([[Sea Cottage]]) is still present at the Cerulean Cape, but Bill is currently visiting his family in Johto's [[Goldenrod City]]. The house is being watched over by his grandfather.
 * The {{OBP|Copycat|character}} still lives in [[Saffron City]], but has moved to another area of town. Her old house was demolished to make way for the [[Magnet Train]] station. As compensation, she received a free rail pass from a man at the station, which she gives away to the player after the return of her [[Lost Item|lost doll]]. According to her mother, this is the same [[Poké Doll|doll]] that Red exchanged for {{TM|31|Mimic}} in [[Generation I]].
