Blue (game)/Yellow: Difference between revisions

Main article: Blue (game)

This is a list of the teams of the rival in Pokémon Yellow.

As this game uses non-traditional first partner Pokémon, the rival will start with Eevee. Eevee will evolve into Vaporeon, Flareon, or Jolteon, depending on the results of two early battles against the player: the first battle at Professor Oak's lab in Pallet Town and a second optional battle on Route 22.

• Vaporeon: The player loses against the rival at Professor Oak's lab, whether or not they defeated him at Route 22.
• Flareon: The player wins against the rival at Professor Oak's lab, but loses or skips the Route 22 battle.
• Jolteon: The player wins against the rival at both Professor Oak's lab and Route 22.

In the fourth through seventh battles, Blue has one Potion per Pokémon that he uses 12.5% of the time if their HP falls below 20%. In the Champion battle, he instead uses Full Restores with the same logic.
