Errors

  • On page 7, there is a list of the Kanto Gym Leaders. The image of the Badge Sabrina gives out, the Marsh Badge, and the Badge Koga gives out, the Soul Badge, are switched.
  • On page 32, when listing Pidgeot's attacks, one of them is "Wing".
  • On page 33, a section called Mime's The Word states that Delia rescued her Mr. Mime from a circus where it was being treated harshly. In reality, hers was a wild Mr. Mime which she mistook for Ash. The Mr. Mime in question actually belonged to Stella who eventually worked out her differences with her Mr. Mime.
  • On page 52, an image of Venusaur is in place of where an image of a Charmander should be.
  • Ritchie's name is misspelled as Richie.
  • On page 89, a true or false question asks if Venonat like to fly near bright lights at night. The answers state that this is true; Venonat cannot fly, and this is most likely intended to be Venomoth.
  • On page 89, a true or false question is asked about Nidoran♀ and Nidoran♂, but there is a picture of Nidorino instead of Nidoran♂.
  • On page 90, a question asks The S.S. Anne is a boat docked in Vermillion City. True or False? The answer on page 105 does not make sense saying False, the name of the boat is the S.S. Anne.
    • This is actually corrected in the Canadian French version. In this translation, the question asks if the name of the ship is the "S.S. Banane".
  • On page 104, the answers are given for You Pick the Winner! Battle #3 says Pikachu will win in a battle against Golem because "Water-Type Pokémon have the advantage over Rock Types." This may be referring to Surfing Pikachu, as Surf is a Water-type move.
