If playing on a counterfeit cartridge, attempting to play Voltorb Flip in either the Goldenrod Game Corner or Celadon Game Corner will crash the game. It's unclear if this is an Anti-Piracy measure, or if it's a mistake in the ROM of Heart Gold and Soul Silver.

In Cianwood City, if you have only one Pokemon in your team and it does not know Fly or Surf, a generous Trainer in the island's Pokemon Center will give you a Level 15 Tentacool, claiming to have caught too many and was just about to release it before he noticed your situation. This was added to prevent the player from softlocking the game in Cianwood City by giving the player a Pokemon that can learn the Surf HM in order to leave. Additionally, it is possible for the Tentacool given to you to be Shiny.

In Generation II, Cerulean and Fuchsia City didn't use their music from Generation I, and shared themes with Celadon City and Viridian City, respectively. However, when remade, Cerulean and Fuchsia were given their Generation I theme again, but because they didn't have this theme in Generation II, when using the GB Sounds, an original Generation II-styled remix was used.
