Appendix:Yellow walkthrough/Section 2: Difference between revisions

When you step inside, the shopkeeper recognizes you as someone from [[Pallet Town]] and calls you over to the counter. It seems that [[Professor Oak]] had ordered something that was recently delivered. The shopkeeper hands {{key|I|Oak's Parcel}} to you and asks that you take it to him. The man is adamant, so you will not be able to make any purchases until the delivery is made.

Deliver {{key|I|Oak's Parcel}}, a custom Poké Ball, to him and {{ga|Blue}} arrives a moment later. The professor has a request for each of you: take the [[Pokédex]] he invented and use it to gather information on all the Pokémon in the world. This handheld device is a high-tech encyclopedia that records data on every Pokémon you encounter, and will be complete when you catch a member of every species. It was Oak's dream to do this himself, but his advanced age means that he must rely on the two of you instead.

With {{key|I|Oak's Parcel}} delivered, it is now possible to purchase items at the Poké Mart, and the old man that had blocked the path northward is feeling better now that he has had his coffee. When you pass him, he demonstrates how to catch a Pokémon as an apology for being rude. His attempt is unsuccessful, and he heads off to buy more Poké Balls.
