#### Articuno and binoculars

You still see Articuno through the binoculars in the gate on Route 15 after catching it. This applies to both Generation I and Generation III.
In Generation I this isn't the case with a Snorlax after catching it, so it makes me wonder why Articuno is different. Of course, Game Freak didn't have to make things consistent, but I think it makes things a little confusing.

Yeah i noticed that on my yellow about a year ago. But one thing that bothered me was that Articunos sprite was green like every route is in yellow because the binocularhouse/RouteTransitionHouse also uses the Route pallete instead of the "blue pokémon pallete" found in the battle screen of yellow.

Ah yeah, that's kind of annoying for a Pokémon that's supposed to be blue.

They most likely they forgot to change that by that period of development. Game designing is nowhere as tedious as it used to be, lol.
and I'm sure you know that they were dumb enough to replace the debugging tool with Mew, soooo you know, even if they did catch it, there's probably not much they could have done.
As for gen III, only one word, insanity.
