When the game is over, Pikachu is scored based on the remaining HP and "Radness".

If the game is played on a [[Super Game Boy]] or [[Game Boy Color]], {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}}'s cheeks appear blue due to the limited color palette of these consoles. In the Japanese Yellow, Game Boy Color mode only applies a yellow and red palette to the graphics in a similar fashion to the other [[Generation I]] games, whereas the localizations use palettes with more saturated colors than those of Super Game Boy mode. As a result, Pikachu's cheeks are depicted properly in the Game Boy Color mode of the Japanese version. | If the game is played on a [[Super Game Boy]] or [[Game Boy Color]], {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}}'s cheeks appear blue due to the limited color palette of these consoles.
