Line 29:
*[[Juggler (unused Trainer class)]]'s name was originally ジャック (Jack) during a period of development when he was a Trainer known as Shinjuku Jack (a reference to Takayuki Haneda, pseudonym "Shinjuku Jacky"; who mained Jacky Byran in the game [[wikipedia:Virtua Fighter|Virtua Fighter]] by [[wikipedia:Sega|Sega]]) before all references to Jack were removed (except as a pre-set name) and the Trainer in his place became the unused Juggler copy. However, a list of Trainer Classes in Japanese mentioning Jack where the unused Juggler would have been remains in the final versions of Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions.
*A similar situation to the Juggler also applies to the [[Chief (unused Trainer class)|Chief]]. Furthermore, some extra unused information can be retrieved from his Japanese name Silph's Chief or Silph's Manager (シルフのチーフ), possibly suggesting he was linked to the Silph Co. before being cut from the game. In the source code leak, the Chief also used Blaine's newer design (like in the final games) instead of the Scientist sprite although this did not survive by the time the final ROMs were released. (At the time, the actual Blaine [https://tcrf.net/File:PokemonRGBY-BlaineOriginal.png had his own cut design], which can still be seen in the manuals of the final game)
*[[Prof. Oak (unused Trainer class)|Prof. Oak]] is another unused Trainer class in Generation I. He has three rosters (and they only differ based on the final form of the starters; Venusaur, Charizard or Blastoise) at levels even higher than the Pokémon League Champion, which has lead to speculation that he was the original champion, or served a similar late game (or even post game) role. Professor Oak however is sometimes discussed together with Pokémon glitches, because he can be accessed with the name character {{MN}} in the [[old man glitch]] (as the third, fifth, seventh, ninth and eleventh character in the player's name) or Special stat 226 [[Trainer escape glitch]]. Often he is fought with the wrong roster rather than with one of his three valid ones.
**When battling any Trainer using a glitch, the player must specify the roster (for instance, in the Ditto glitch sub-glitch of the Trainer escape glitch this is used by altering the Attack stage of the transformed opponent (7 by default and can be 1 (-6)-13 (+6)); for instance, 6 Growls would allow the player to access that Trainer's roster 1. In the old man glitch however, the set of rosters for all Trainers are brought up from Trainer class 256 (using a roster matching the index number of the last fought Trainer) instead. Players often call Trainers accessed through glitches simply [[glitch Trainer]]s, especially if they are using a roster with an index number exceeding their last possible roster (in this case, Lance with glitch Pokémon isn't technically a glitch Trainer but Lance using a glitch roster which may include glitch Pokémon).
