* What I wonder is why there is no nearby city/town music in houses on routes? As well as the music restarting when flying to a city/town that has the same music even though they did it with FRLG and the next remakes.

*** Maybe it was a direct response to the events of the last game? The Channelers had all been possessed by wayward spirits, maybe the people of the town felt having a large scale cemetery attracted too many ghost Pokemon and it was dangerous?

**** First of all, not all other games list the rivals. Gen III didn't for one. Some player characters apparently check for familiar names, other check just for their name. Second, the many trainers on the various Victory Roads make it clear that there are plenty of certified trainers aside from the player (or the player and the rival). The reading of the list was never all-encompassing, even in games that listed the rival.

*** Except that all other games do keep tabs on your rivals beating the gyms and their names are recorded along with yours, so that's why it's confusing. Not helping the case is the fact that the only gym you see him interact with is the olivine gym, earlier on in Azelea town he walks right on by that gym without stopping, and this was after Team Rocket had been dealt with as they had prevented us from entering the gym upon arrival, so again it makes you wonder if he stole his badges rather than earn them.

** The players character almost certainly reads only the section in the gym statues that lists his name. Did you think he was the only trainer to ever beat the gyms and get listed as a certified trainer?

* How did Silver get into Victory Road? Re-checking the gyms I never see him certified like you the player are, did he steal his badges like his manga counterpart?

** Because the new Pokémon weren't treated as "Johto" Pokémon in Gen II. They were treated as newly discovered Pokémon that were rarer then the old 150. Unlike later gens, Gen II wasn't tied to any particular region, featuring two whole regions.

regions. In fact, GSC wouldn't even have featured Johto at first; it would have been set in the whole Japan archipelago (although the in-game map would have been smaller than the final Johto+Kanto map).

* How come most of the Gym Leaders in ''Johto'' rely on having ''Kanto'' Pokemon (Falker having Pidgey and Pidgeot but no Hoothoot or Noctowl, Bugsy having a Metapod, Kakuna, and Scyther, but not having a Spinarak or Heracross, and Chuck having Primeape and Poliwrath but no Hitmontop)? There should be plenty of options for their teams.
