help Pokémon Yellow FAQ
Why does Pikachu follow the player in Pokemon Yellow?
Pokemon Yellow was designed to resemble the Pokemon anime, where Ash travels with Pikachu outside a Poke Ball. In the Game Boy game, Pikachu follows the player on the overworld and reacts when spoken to.
Can you choose Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle at the start?
No. The starter is fixed as Pikachu, while the rival starts with Eevee. The original Kanto starters can still be obtained later from NPCs.
When did Pokemon Yellow release?
Pokemon Yellow launched in Japan on September 12, 1998 and in North America on October 19, 1999. Europe received it in 2000.
Does Pokemon Yellow include Jessie and James?
Yes. Team Rocket's Jessie and James appear as recurring opponents, making Yellow closer to the anime than Pokemon Red and Blue. Their presence is one of the most visible story changes from the earlier Game Boy versions.
