Line 2:
'''Pokémon Yellow''' is the "third game" of [[bp:Generation I|Generation I]] released worldwide, i.e. the [[bp:Core series#Release model|upper version]] of [[Pokémon Red and Blue]]. It uses the same game engine as its corresponding version in Japan, which is also usually known as "Japanese Pokémon Yellow" in English. However, this version is not named after a color in Japanese, but rather as "Pocket Monster Pikachu" (Japanese: ポケットモンスター ピカチュウ). In Japan, it is the fourth version in Generation I, the paired versions being [[Pokémon Red and Green|Japanese Pokémon Red and Green]] and the third version being [[Pokémon Blue (Japanese)|Japanese Pokémon Blue]].
Compared to Pokémon Red and Blue, the game engine of Pokémon Yellow is slightly updated to support various special features of the starter Pikachu (most notably, following the player on the overworld), and for Western releases also to support color palette changes on the Game Boy Color. Several glitches are fixed, but the game remains easily breakable, mostly thanks to the [[trainer escape glitch]] and the [[SRAM glitch|save corruption glitch]]
[[Glitch Pokémon]], glitch items, etc. can be accessed in Pokémon Yellow just like in Pokémon Red and Blue, but due to various changes in the game shifting bytes around, their behaviors are often different from their Red and Blue counterparts.
Line 14:
[[Brock through walls]] is technically possible in Pokémon Yellow, but the [[Pewter Gym skip glitch]] is fixed, so the player would need to have broken the game already in order to set it up, making it significantly less useful.
A new major glitch introduced by Pokémon Yellow is the [[Pikachu off-screen glitch]], which can be used to achieve [[arbitrary code execution]] (ACE) by spawning a glitch signs, but this may be less convenient than starting from the trainer escape glitch and doing arbitrary code execution with a [[glitch item]], like in Pokémon Red and Blue.
