Dragon Ball Z reference:
In Ecruteak City at the Dance studio, a Team Rocket grunt is hassling a kimono girl. Talk to the person on the right side of the stage. He tells you he would have put a stop the grunt’s behavior if it was not for the incredible pain of his stomachache. This is a tactic commonly used by Hercule Satan in Dragon Ball Z to get out of fighting.
Game Boy reference:
At Celadon City, enter the Celadon Condominiums next to the Pokemon Center. Use the elevator to reach the third floor. When you exit, your friend will tell you about the GB Sounds. Talk to the man next to the globe after collecting all of the Kanto badges to get the GB Sounds Device.
If you turn on the GB Sounds option before entering the Union room, then trade with someone, it will play the classic trade music.
Split and fused poles:
When you go to the back of the Safari Zone where the poles are, they will split in two or fuse together depending on where you are standing.
