Ironically enough, the speed of flashing effect used for some of the Psychic-type moves like Confusion or Hypnosis was noticeably increased (before being toned back down in Pokémon Yellow). This change was more than likely done to prevent the risk of triggering seizures, a change likely motivated by the infamous episode from the Pokémon anime "でんのうせんしポリゴン" (Dennō Senshi Porygon, or literally "Electric Soldier Porygon"). In the original Japanese releases, certain moves such as Thunderbolt, Body Slam, or Hyper Beam will result in more rapid screen flashes than in the localized versions. The English Yellow instruction booklet mistakenly claims that Blizzard freezes less frequently in Colosseum 2 mode, which is only true in the Japanese releases since the value was reduced to 10.2% everywhere already in Red and Blue. The localizations, Pokémon Stadium, and the Japanese Yellow, when played in Colosseum 2 mode reduce this to 10.2%. In the original Japanese releases, Blizzard has a 30.1% chance of freezing.

The PC Boxes in the Pokémon Storage System were changed from 8 Boxes that can hold 30 Pokémon each to 12 Boxes that can hold 20 Pokémon each - 240 Pokémon total, either way, but more divided for some reason. However, worth noting is that the international versions allows entries to be up to six line long, as opposed to the original versions meager three. This also cased the number displays to also be shifted one tile upward, as to allow for the Poké Ball icon.Īs per the layout of the dex entries themselves, it wasn't changed in the slightest in the international versions, with only the Pokémon's stats being displayed using the imperial system, as opposed to the Japanese version's metric system. The newly available space was specifically aimed at fitting the localized Pokémon names, which can have up to 10 characters maximum (twice of what the Japanese versions allow). Namely, the options on the side were squished quite a bit, losing their neat little border and only retaining its upper portion. The Pokédex screen underwent a rather thourough lift when the games were localized.
