What Happens To The Third Starter Pokemon At Prof. Oak's Lab?

[@GeezyDaMack]

has anyone else ever wondered how people discovered these Glitches its crazy

[@whippedalcremie7718]

I would say maybe it's because they data mine the games? Not entirely sure though.

[@xNegerli]

@@whippedalcremie7718 Yea, I also think you have to reverse engineer the code to find the correct code injection via ingame inputs to get the wanted results without just crashing the game. No way someone finds out about all that just by accident. It could also be a trial and error for most of the gen1 glitches though, which had its origin in a glitch discovered randombly by just playing the game.

[@junehanabi1756]

1) In the initial year of launch we had gameshark and gameshark codes and magazines to see new gameshark codes. All that combined let us do some wild trial and error with a lot of mixed results. 2) Sometime later we could delve more into the game as technology became more available to do so and begin reverse engineering through various means either from hardware running on the game or perhaps emulators but the technology was still new to some people or unavailable. Eventually though it became more and more common and standard as did the internet. 3) When the internet became much more common there were tools that could trace the game code (And dump all the available code into an asm file) as well as projects popping up that could take this a step further but mots of them didn't last long or get very far. Also unless you did any disassembling by hand, unused code was not in the auto dumps and any game assets weren't either. Those were only available when doing it by hand and it required some experience and lots of patience which was the point of the little projects popping up. 4) Eventually things got really sophisticated, the internet was everywhere, and all the technology was at your disposal. This is probably where we started learning the final secrets to the game. 5) Now the entire code has been completely disassembled by hand (byte-by-byte) which took years and the efforts of quite a bunch of people on a project called "pokered" available on github. All the assets, images, music, code whether used or unused. Literally any part of the game you can imagine is all right there in the open. Was a very long road but that's how we learned these glitches and hacks and stuff from initial launch to present day and it just had to do with the technology and experience available to you and when.

[@bubbleteacore]

If you see the level curve of the Elite Four and Champion, Professor Oak's levels are exactly what they would be if there were to be a fight right after the champion fight. Perhaps Professor Oak was originally planned to challenge you right after becoming champion.

[@Gimas96]

Or if you complete the Pokédex,which would have been a far better reward then a useless diploma that isn’t even oak the one that give it to you

[@junehanabi1756]

I like @bubbletea answer. Given the Professor is what sounds to the the lead scientist and researcher of Kanto it would totally make sense that you've proven your worth with the elite four and the champion. Now theirs no doubt your skills, however it would make sense the Professor may have final word over granting you your title and it may yet take some more convincing to the professor before he allows you to earn the regions title as Champion. Like perhaps the's the one that's given authority to officialize your status to the entire region so before he does that he wants to see your skills for himself in the final showdown.

[@ThatGuyThai]

@@junehanabi1756 my theory is that he was coming when he heard gary won to battle him, then he saw that you won, so he would have battled you. This gives credence to the fact that you are able to challenge Gary as soon as he became champion, barely any break. So oak could have done exactly the same. They opted not to because they are nearly identical but if you got charizard, gary would have blastoise and no gyarados, whereas oak would have venusaur no exeggutor. So its slight variation. Or if you start with those, itd be charizard no arcanine.

[@johnruhd5917]

I like to believe Oak's battle was removed for both difficulty and plot reasons. Difficulty because "are you fucking kidding me" after Gary would've sucked for eight year-olds around the world, plot because an old man who gave up on catching Pokemon leads with a rare find in the Safari Zone? No.

Actually not that hard of an answer at least in the anime. In Mastermind of Mirage Pokemon he actually uses a Dragonite... And a real one not a mirage. Well as far as I know these 2 or 3 was it? episodes are not canon but yeah that is one of his Pokemon! If I remember right it is also the only Pokemon we ever see him use in the series. Correct me if I am wrong and he uses others in the Pokemon anime. The most powerful Pokemon in the whole first game if you don't count the legendarys... Not bad Professor, not bad at all... + Dragonite can learn flying. Wasn't so sure for a moment on that so I looked it up. I would never mistreat a Dragonite with flying. Only my Crobat. But Professor Oak does whatever Professor Oak wants I guess...

what ending would you prefer, though? fight the rival, who's a huge dick to you throughout the game, or fight oak, who is constantly nice to you? it's more satisfying to see someone who is a dick to you get beat rather than oak.

[@veethebeaniest]

I think I might know why Prof. Oak said ‘Ow! That’s tragic!’ after you beat him. The bird keeper you fought with had the same fail speech line and it might of been stored in the game’s data somewhere, waiting to be used. Since Prof. Oak’s fail speech line was probably undefined, the game might’ve used speech from the last trainer you fought, that being the bird keeper in Route 15.

[@doctordestructo3360]

I think you're correct. In MissingnoXpert's Let's Glitch Pokemon Yellow, part 27, when he defeats Oak he also has the same dialogue of the trainer he fought beforehand, this time being a Youngster.

[@foxythunder481]

The “ow, that’s tragic” line is pulled directly from the first Trainer on the Nugget Bridge.

I could definitely see Oak being the final battle, since I also thought those last 2 rival battles were weirdly close to one another.

My theory is that Red would simply become Champion after defeating Lance. Oak walks in to take you to the hall of fame after you beat Blue at the end, but instead of doing that right away he would be the one to challenge you to one last battle It makes sense with Oak's team being so similar to Blue's and Oak not really having a good reason to be there in the final version

I think i know how this glitch works. So basically you find a trainer, fly away at the same time they spot you. Then, you're in a position where the game is about to start a battle. Do a battle, and then warp to cerulean because oak is there. The game will think it started a battle with that trainer but it doesn't because they aren't anywhere near. So it goes to oak since the professor oak battle wasn't completely out of the games code. Ez explinations. I think...

[@Peelster1]

If you have run out of trainers to battle (except the one that you trainer fly away from) you can go to the guy in Pewter City who shows you were the Pewter City museum is. Talking to him takes care of the walking animation needed to start the battle. The menu is disabled during the Trainer Fly glitch, so if you need your menu again in the middle of the glitch, change boxes in the PC to save the game. Reset the game after saving by changing boxes and you get your menu back so you can Fly. Teleport works to escape the trainer as well if you don't have Fly. Using the change box save method and resetting your game also allows you to save right before finding a Ditto that way you don't need to do the whole glitch to fight all 3 teams. You can just not save the game after the Prof Oak battle, reset the game, and then all you would need to do is growl the Ditto again. (Providing you did Trainer Fly, Pewter City museum walk, changing PC boxes, resetting the game, and then Start menu saving just before looking for Ditto of course.) I also recommend for an easier time having your 226 Special Pokemon to know no attacking moves or at least no Special attacking moves as that Ditto will hit you pretty hard otherwise.

In the Indigo League series, when Ash tries to pick all 3 starters, Professor Oak said that all 3 were chosen. So this implies that the Professor keeps the third one left for someone else to claim it

im a professional programmer and i still dont know how looking at a game’s code tells you how to trigger glitches

[@TheSapphireLeo]

Dayuum!

[@EKOxL3G3ND]

I think this works because when you fly away from the trainer it starts to load the code that determines the battle, but once you leave the route it stops. By then doing everything you do in the video it changes variables in the code that when reloaded (by going back to the route) it spawns the battle with prof. Oak (take with a grain of salt, idk coding lol)

[@ESparkAster]

At least Sword and Shield turned this into a mechanic by Leon straight up keeping it.

I felt really sorry for the grass starter in Ultra Sun/Moon when I chose the water starter...Bauz (dunno the English name) seemed kinda sad for me.. Darn those pixels can hit my feelings to easily

[@unknownplanet1072]

Bulbasaur was the best bang for your buck as a starter gen 1. Bulby!! 😁

[@sephiroth99999]

well i always choose water type starters in every pokemon game, due to their compatibility to learn useful moves from tm/hms which can help you to clear the whole game....with just one starter pokemon lol. ice beam, earthquake, surf and one random move...always....

[@shaoyu6925]

I bet Prof. Oak wanted to battle you because you rode your bike indoors.

That's why I loved Pokemon Yellow. My grandma bought me a Game Boy and Pokemon Yellow while I was in the hospital. I was 8 years old and we were playing football, we ran in the street and me and my friend were hit by a pick up truck. My friend broke his legs in 3 places. I had a crushed femur, fractured skull, broken tailbone and 3 broken ribs, one of which broke off and punctured my lung. I was in ICU on a constant morphine drip. Had multiple surgeries and blood transfusions in those 3 days. After I was to a regular room after 72 hours in critical care. I stayed in that room for another 14 days. During these 2 weeks I got a gift in a box. I pulled it out and there was a brand new Game Boy and Pokemon Yellow. I was ecstatic. Being in a hospital for 17 days, followed by 5 months in a wheelchair while being homeschooled, Pokemon Yellow helped me keep my sanity. I loved the fact that I started with Pikachu and as the game progresses I was given the other 3 starters. By the time I was almost healed up I had a complete dex. My hall of fame 6 was a level 100 Pikachu, 100 Charizard, 100 Blastoise, 100 Venusaur, 100 Mewtow and 100 Gengar. With all the free time I had I was able to grind a lot. So other than the awesomeness of getting 4 starters in this game, Yellow really helped save my sanity during the worst point of my childhood. For that reason, even for all it's faults, Yellow will be my favorite game. Thank you mawmaw for introducing me to the world of Pokemon. Love you mawmaw and may you r.i.p. 08/03/1932 - 10/16/2009. Sorry everybody for the long post, just wanted to state how my love for the Pokemon world started. #Pokemon #JurassicPark #NewOrleansSaints.

[@swagkirby3449]

For me, it was Charmander. I was wondering if I'll ever see a Charmander in the game (it was used by a trainer in the Cinnabar Mansion I believe). #SquirtleSquadUnite

[@wonghauwan511]

True facts: Charmander 1 Bulbasaur 2 Squirtle 3

[@olusmoke5428]

Are we just going to go past the fact that the starter gets to Level. 69 ? or I'm a just too childish?-

So since Professor Oak is stronger than Blue, what’s the most amount of exp you can get from fighting Professor Oak?

[@datniggawalter7971]

I want to point out that venusaur was at level 69... Noice

[@snailstheatlas]

Funny Story: I was playing Pokemon Y, and went on Route 4. There's a white flower Flabébé and I wanted it because it was SUPER rare (1% chance). I found it, and didn't want to 1-hit it, so I looked up it's weaknesses. It says: Fairy strenghts: Dark, Fighting, and Salamence I died. Apparently Salamence is a type now 😂😂😂

[@leosanctuary9109]

Hahahahaha Lol.

[@ryanwakebradtelle8682]

I just had the most awesome idea for a rom hack ever, it starts out like a normal Pokemon game but when you finally get to the champion she talks about a rumor that you've heard a little about. There's a limit to how strong your Pokemon can get oh, (of course you're talking but level 100), but a few of them including Champions gym leaders and the leader of the enemy team have been thinking about a way to surpass level 100. Then the real game starts, you have to fight the evil team they have level 130 plus Pokemon but you're still stuck at level 100. You can barely keep up your mega evolved Pokemon are still getting one shot. Even the new type of evolution in this game is it helping you, you talked to everyone who know how to get past the limit. It is technically possible to beat most of the story without surpassing level 100, but you'll be encouraged to train with champions and even red. But none of them can help you.

Abridged version: Professor Oak has the third Pokemon. You just saved 10 minutes. You're welcome.

[@AndyRoidEU]

[@Lien6887]

I once experienced a glitch in Pokemon Black 1 where I went on land after using surf, and during the animation where my character "jumped" on shore, an npc walked onto the same tile. The result was a really weird overworld sprite with elements from both. Iirc, the trainer sprite was layered over the npc, but the pixels from the NPC sprite that weren't also filled in on the trainer sprite, would now appear outside the trainer sprite. Haven't been able to replicate it though sadly, but this type of stuff makes me wonder if it would somehow be possible to utilise it for an intricate numbers manipulation glitch or similar.

[@obsoleteobsession]

I can't believe they took out the Oak battle. That would have been legendary.

[@silith7027]

I'm not sure if beating the Rival instead of Oak really is more satisfying. Having to battle the person who sent you on your journey in the first place seems like a neat way to tie it all up and it seems only natural that he would have wanted to see how far you've come. I would've liked that.

[@MateusSFigueiredo]

Pokémon Red and Blue developers: "we have almost no space in the memory so we might not end up putting Mew in the game" Also Pokémon Red and Blue: leaves this battle just sitting there somewhere in the code

[@ZombieNationLTD]

Could you imagine this happening accidentally, you’d be like ahh...? Ahhh.....? What?!

[@patrykboduch9458]

Imagine if you had to fight oak right after champion battle, like he is ultimate test

[@garcia8523able]

That would of been pretty sick

[@JadeyCatgirl99]

I think a battle with Professor Oak could be great for a truly final boss at the end of the end of the Kanto games. If I were to design it, he'd have have a full team of six. They would all be at level 100, and you can only challenge him if you have seen all 150 Pokémon, since you can at least do that much without trading, or maybe at least prove yourself by having seen Mewtwo. You would also have to clear the fighting Dojo. He could have the other fossil, and the other fighting type that the player didn't choose. Tauros is a fun option because they have high base stats, but don't get used by many in game trainers. He would have the third starter, and two Pokémon based on that for a grass-fire-water trio. Victreebell would be the other grass type, Rapidash would be the other fire type, and Larpas would be the other water type.

[@ManDyter]

This is so typical older games. Instead of simply including a prof. oak fight let's glitch it in!
