{{unused maps}}
There is a Safari Zone in Pokemon GSC. And you don't have to hack the ROM to get to it. You can just use a Gameshark to get there.
 
Though {{RBY}} have a [[bp:Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] that can be accessed through normal gameplay, {{GSC}} do not.
The Gameshark codes are:
 
Despite this, there is an unused Safari Zone in Gold, Silver and Crystal. The area can be accessed via hacking or using a [[cheating device]]. There is no documented way to get to it by means of a glitch.

== GameShark Codes ==
Note that these are currently only Pokemon Gold and Silver codes, but we'll try to find some for Pokemon Crystal.
Three sets of codes are listed here. One is a [[Cheating device#Game Genie|Game Genie]] code that restores the door of the Safari Zone's gate in Fuchsia City. The other two are [[Cheating device#GameShark|GameShark]] codes: one changes the behavior of any warp tile to that of a hole tile while the other is the "walk through walls" code. These GameShark codes can be used instead of the Game Genie code. Furthermore, the code to change the tile behavior is required to trigger the unused warps inside the Safari Zone.
 
The Game Genie code to unlock access to the gate in all language versions of ''Gold'', ''Silver'', and ''Crystal:
To get there, you just enter whatever door is near you with the codes on. You'll be in the Safari Zone's entry room, so you got to turn off the codes.

Now, you could just go back outside and you will find yourself inside the wall of the closed-down Safari Zone building in Fuchsia City, Kanto.
 
The GameShark code to change the behavior of warp tiles is:
You can get back inside by turning back on the codes and entering a building.

But the purpose of this [[glitch]] is to get into Safari Zone. So you go through the north doors in the room with the codes off, and you don't have to pay any invisible man or anything like that.

You'll find yourself in a somewhat [[glitch_(verb)|glitched]] Safari Zone, but most of the tiles are completed. You can't go back in though, and you can go around the glitch tiles you came out from.

If you go up and explore it, you will find some normal grass and a lot of tall grass, and a pond with no sand around it. Unfortunately, Safari Zone is pretty small and there are no Wild Pokemon, not even [[?????]].

But this shows us that the programmers originally intended to add the Safari Zone, but replaced it with National Park.

== The Safari Zone ==

Assuming that a player used the gatehouse codes, they should find themselves inside of a typical gate building. This gate bridges Fuchsia City and the Safari Zone. Exiting through the south entrance will return the player to Fuchsia City, where the player will end up lodged in a wall.
 
If the player exits through the northern entrance, they will find themselves in an incomplete Safari Zone. The entrance is quite [[Glitch#As an adjective|glitched]], and the water is not surrounded by a coastline or sand, but the area is otherwise complete. The glitched entrance can be walked on, but the player cannot use it to return to the gate. The map's border uses the huge grass tile.

The Safari Zone appears to use the same tileset as the National Park, possessing both tall and huge grass. The map is rather small, and no wild Pokémon appear in the grass, but normal Pokémon can be encountered by using an Old Rod, Good Rod or Super Rod at the pond.
 
==Unused warp==
The "entrance" to the Safari Zone is actually still in the game. In Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal and other games, doors are powered by "warps" -- invisible objects placed over doors. When a player steps on a warp, they are immediately moved to wherever the warp "pointed" -- and warps can only point to other warps. The doors in the games do nothing; it is the invisible warps placed over them that do the work.
 
Hackers have discovered that there is still a warp to the Safari Zone in Fuchsia City. The warp is unusable, however, because it was placed over a brick wall, which the player cannot walk onto. This is why, if a player exits the Safari Zone gatehouse using the south entrance, they end up standing on a wall -- that is the warp to and from the Safari Zone.
