I wasn't being serious. - relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -0/+145Am I the only one here who actually wasted countless hours of my youth trying to get him out from under that damned truck inside the ship port?
- relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -0/+124marketing: 1
childhood dreams: 0 - Blah_Blah_Blah, on 10/12/2007, -2/+106I thought he was under that truck?
- igibson, on 10/12/2007, -1/+85i was expecting this to be kind of lame but the code explanation at the end was very interesting - its unique to see someone develop a cheat based on the actual coding of the game
- ursername180, on 10/12/2007, -2/+84So when I was young, I spent ages in the line in the city just to get him. When I could of just done this? This makes me angry...
But I need someone else to test this and confirm it before I believe. - pronouncable, on 10/12/2007, -1/+82The subtleties of humor seem to evade you.
-10 hp. - Th3Sourc3, on 10/12/2007, -1/+80Man, I was in a Nintendo contest one time and I won a Surfing Pikachu for my Pokemon Yellow cartridge. I sent it in, they sent it back, and lo and behold, a Surfing Pikachu.
Three days later, my cousin borrowed my cartridge only to return it with a new game where mine once existed.
I gave up on pokemon for the rest of my life... - johntoast, on 10/30/2007, -7/+76this is like 10 years late

- misfitpanda, on 10/12/2007, -0/+63Take that nintendo!
I finally caught them all!
.......
Wait theres more than 151??
blasphemy!! - ThReAtEnEd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+61dude...i highly doubt there are any competitions for pokemon red/blue/yellow.
relax. - SpoonMachine, on 10/12/2007, -0/+59berkeley.edu always was the best source for pokemon-related help.
- kingfoot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+51red and blue (maybe yellow, but i wasnt a fan of yellow much) are the 2 greatest games of all time. forgetting what pokemon has become in recent years, those 2 games, the original 150(151) pokemon are the greatest success in gaming history(to me at least). the story is so deep and flatout fun. many many hours and batteries were spent to "catch them all" and with this article, im going to head out to my local gamestop right now and pickup a used gameboy color and pokemon red. :D
- Klisk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+48Yes. All the time. It's still a rather "big" game series as far as popularity goes.
- ThReAtEnEd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+451) you dont need to buy a gameshark a'duh
2) for those of us who tried getting a mew out of under some truck or something for a LONG TIME and going up and down cinnabar praying for a mew, its just cool knowing you can do it - AussieJames, on 10/12/2007, -1/+41If this knowledge was given to me 6 years ago I would be praising the Lord
Nonetheless Im still gonna go back and catch mew... lol - PhantomBantam, on 10/12/2007, -2/+42Good memories of that game. I had to play it three times, though. First, my game was destroyed after catching missingno. (goodbye lv.99 Charzard), then I intentionally missed the ferry, thinking a mew was behind the truck. Knowing that I could actually catch a mew does make me angry, though. Why couldn't I have known this 7 years ago!
- pronouncable, on 10/12/2007, -1/+40Because then you don't NEED the gameshark.
- JeremyBanks, on 10/12/2007, -4/+43No. =P
- mrfreeziexp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+38I remember when they first found this out. Everybody(of course) was calling it fake.. But then, one by one, reports started to trickle in that it worked. Lol, one of the first posts confirming it worked: "OMFG. IT. F***ING. WORKS." Ahh, that day is etched in my mind forever. Great game :)

- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+30when i was your age, there were only 150 pokemon
- VivaLaNation, on 10/12/2007, -1/+30ohh man that brings back some good memories...
- antifreeze11, on 10/12/2007, -1/+30at least one hundred and fifty, and mo-ore to see, because a pokemon master is my destiny
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+27Some jackass at my school tried to convince me that I could only move the truck by teaching Mewtwo strength. Big waste of a Mewtwo.
- takeshi7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+27I know this is sad and depressing, but i still remember the gameshark codes to get mew.
0115D7CF=yellow
0115D8CF=red/blue - nesstheking1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+27That is the saddest story I have ever read in my entire life ever.
I also have a Surfing pikachu, Ah the memories fo playing the mini-game and doing flips! - lucid270, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25I'm 23 and this thread makes me feel old.... sad. I remember all of those "kids" younger than me that were into pokemon.
- stvnly, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25why level 99? they go to 100 you know
- Chaotyk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+24If it's a fossil you can just take it to that place on Cinnabar Island...
- SueprSheepdog, on 10/12/2007, -3/+26This is only about 4 years old.

1) The Mew Glitch (Or "The biggest news in years!!!")
There are many rumours on the Internet on how to get Mew. Many of these seem to revolve around a truck near the SS Anne. All of these rumours are false.
You CAN catch Mew using a glitch. This was on April 19th 2003. I'll list how to get 2 before you fight Misty. For more information, refer to the Mew Glitch FAQ by TheScythe. The method I list here is the "Kevdude" technique.
1. Defeat all the trainers on Nugget Bridge, but do NOT fight the trainer in the grass to the left of the bridge, or the first trainer in Misty's Gym. (Don't beat Misty either)
2. Catch an Abra in the grass to the left, and place this in your party. (Yellow owners will need to see Bill first to catch an Abra in the grass around the Day-Care!) Go to directly above the trainer in the grass, making sure he's off screen. Save now as you won't be able to risk saving until after you get the first Mew.
3. Step towards the trainer, and the instant he appears, press start. Teleport back to Cerulean City. Time it right and the exclamation mark won't appear until the Teleport animation kicks in.
4. Your buttons won't work, so go to Misty's Gym and fight the first trainer, letting him swim to you. After the battle heal up (if required) and get ready to catch a level 7 Mew. {NOTE : It's been brought to my attention that talking to anyone after the battle has a very small chance of causing the game to exit the "Mew Glitch Mode", so do take care.)
5. Head back towards Nugget Bridge again. Your menu will come up by itself. Simply press B to fight your first Mew. Save after catching it if you want.
6. Now clear a way to the youngster with a Slowpoke facing up the way (He's also the first trainer facing up the way). He's your next target for another Mew. Do NOT fight him yet. (Yellow owners will have already been this way, and should have went below him.)
7. Go to do the teleport thing again with the trainer in the grass to the left, but this time make your way to the youngster. IMPORTANT - he MUST walk to you, so go to the top before going in front of him.
8. Head back to Cerulean City after the battle, and in the same spot as before the second Mew will appear. Catch him to be the proud owner of 2 Mews. Use them as you like. - tyler1175, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20i'd like to know this too i remember all the rumors in elementary school back when this game was huge.
- ph3rny, on 10/12/2007, -2/+22I ahve done some extensive research on this and there is a way to get anything in the rby @ level 7
just follow this and change the special stats:
1. Have a pokemon with a special of 21
2. Fly away from the Gambler battle on route 8(left of lavender)
3. Find any trainer and battle him
4. Fly to anywhere that has a Ditto in the wild
5. Let the wild Ditto transform into your Pokémon with the special of 21
6. Beat the Ditto (or just run away)
7. Return to route 8 (go to lavender, and walk to the left on that path)
8. If you did the trick correctly, you should be facing another Lvl 7 Mew!
heres a list of some of the ones i have found : http://geocities.com.nyud.net:8090/nthny_s/rby_g.html#mew
its geocities ***** so it is bound to go down, and mind the web design i know its ***** it was my project from forever ago - kingfoot, on 10/12/2007, -3/+23does anyone know why the truck is really there?
- CBTF, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20missingno was just a glitch, it wasn't put in there on purpose. they removed it in yellow.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20Somebody had to have one hell of an imagination to think of this.
- Brak710101, on 10/12/2007, -3/+22While I'm amazed that someone finally found how how to do it, but I'm not sure it it's considered legit by the game/Nintendo.
If you ever were in a Nintendo Pokemon competition event, they actually do/did check your game for exploitation, game sharking and other things.
If anyone knows if this would be detected, please post. - tallonx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19dugg for nostalgia
- ToastPop, on 04/17/2009, -2/+19I was so proud of myself for catching every pokemon without using a gameshark... even Mew! I went to an official Nintendo event - some pokemon tour or something - that was being held at my local mall, where they were giving the Mew away :) It was great.
- JamesMorris, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19Am i the only person here that sadly never completed Pokemon?
- bergur1, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19you don't pay and you get a good feeling knowing you did it yourself.
- Dested, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15That sounds like one of those things that the kids a grade or two ahead of you told you one day.
- TonyCubed, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19Even if there was, why would they ban the use of a pokemon what is actually in the game?
- takeshi7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15surfing pikachu does exist. i used my gameshark to teach my pikachu surf and then you could take it to that guy to play the awesome pikachu surfing MINI-GAME!!
- DeFray, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15It's "to be a pokemon master"
I shouldn't know that. - pronouncable, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17"Once you defeat Misty, trade with someone a Pokémon that already knows cut from another game. Then continue the game without going on the SS Anne and get HM02 (fly) and HM03 (surf) as you go. Once gotten both fly and surf, go back to where the SS Anne is. Go right to where the screen switches and you see the ship itself. You will be on the boardwalk that leads to the ship. Surf off to the right until you see a strip of land with a truck on it. People have said that if you move the truck with strength, you will find Mew."
