Amendment to "Evolving Raichu"

Courtesy of Meowth346:

Also, the guy who says that "Raichu" went and evovled, I figured that out (though I don't know if anyone mentioned this earlier): The text was based on Japanese Blue, where you trade a Kadabra. In the Red version, you trade a Raichu.


It was basically something like this:
Japanese Red:
Trade Raichu for Electrode.
Guy responds about his Raichu.

Japanese Green:
Trade Raichu for Electrode.
Guy responds about his Raichu.

Japanese Blue:
Trade Kadabra for whoever.
Guy responds that his Kadabra evolved!


For the English version, they took the Pok?mon from Red/Green. But the dialouge came from Blue. So, the man says taht the Raichu evolved, since you traded him a Raichu instead of a Kadabra.

English R/B is a translation of Japanese Blue, not the earlier, buggier Japanese R/G.
