===Tracking scientist===
At the beginning of the game, when the player first reaches the town, there will be a scientist, or rather a maniac, studying at the entrance of {{rt|102|Hoenn}}, and believes he has found footprints of a newly discovered Pokémon, and will not let anyone pass, not even the player, until he is done. This is just a barrier in the game, to stop player from wandering off past Oldale Town until the player challenges the rival on {{rt|103|Hoenn}} and gets a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Birch]]. Later on, after he is finished with his sampling, he concludes that it was his own footprints that he made earlier.
The way to {{rt|102|Hoenn}} is blocked by a researcher upon the player's first visit to Oldale Town. The scientist is sketching what he believes are footprints from rare Pokémon. Until he is done, west is a no-go. This is to ensure that players challenges his/her rival on {{rt|103|Hoenn}} and a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Birch]] before they continue with their journey. When the player returns, the researcher sheepishly stands aside, after concluding that it was his own footprints all along.
