Although the in-game spelling of the city's name is "Vermilion" with one 'L', I always assumed this to be a text limit restriction. As "vermilion" and "vermillion" are interchangeable spellings, should we take note of this?

Machop → Machoke

Didn't Man's Machop evolve into Machoke in Generation II? - Maxim

Yep. --TMF T - C 15:52, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
No. Please see this screen taken from Pokémon Silver. I read «Machop: ...» --Valepert 05:45, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
That's strange...I fired up the Crystal version tonight and sure enough, it's a Machop. I have no idea where the Machoke idea came from (as I know I read it somewhere), but the fact is that it is a Machop.
It does bear a striking resemblance to Machoke in appearance, however. Maybe that's where I got the idea from. --TMF T - C 01:58, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
if there is going to be a GSDS my guess is that it will evolve or the house will even be finished!--lord mada 18:35, 3 June 2008 (UTC) that is if GSDS has a kanto region--lord mada 18:37, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
But it wasn't evolved in GS, why would it in GSDS? TTEchidna 02:23, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Because lots of things change in remakes and i cant think of any examples --lord mada 08:57, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Brick Piece

I always thought it was interesting that when you traded a RBY Machop over to GSC, it arrived with a trade-only item called a 'Brick Piece'. It appears to have no purpose, but it only recently occurred to me that there could be a link between this guy in Vermilion owning a Machop, and needing materials to finish his house... could be a coincidence, I suppose, but I never thought to investigate. Does anyone know if there is a link? -Timothy.

There is no link. Brick Piece has no purpose, except to pad out certain values from RBY (IIRC the traded held item is based off the RBY catch rate). IIMarckus 07:47, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Vermilion Port

Does anyone want to bring up the fact that with the construction of the Cycling Road, aka Route_17, which doesn't feature a drawbridge, it's impossible for Vermilion City to ACTUALLY be a port in any video game it's featured in? Just a thought for the trivia section... Seiyaryen 03:17, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

This has been bugging me, I'm going to add this in the Trivia section. TailsDM 23:14, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
