    • I just recently saw a thread called "Oak ...something... trainer?!" by Meepman. I read it and the person said Oak had a sprite and you could have battled him in the old R/B/Y games, but that idea was scrapped. Well, I did some searching in a Fire Red ROM and found yet another Prof. Oak battle sprite. Does that mean Gamefreak wanted Oak to return in FR and LG, but that was scrapped aswell?

    Perhaps it was hidden in the code as something for dumpers to find as a nod to the original RBY, as there's no reason they couldn't have used it if Nintendo wanted to.

    Maybe, but it's classified among the trainer sprites, so...

    Hm, that is interesting. But most of the other Fame Checker sprites are already there (Gym Leaders, E4), so maybe they put the rest of the sprites there too. Check if you find Daisy or Bill in the trainer sprites.

    Catch him? You can catch a wild Bill???

    Anyways, I went onto Advanced Trainer (Beta) and found this...

    I couldn't find Oak, but I did find other R/S people, like the E4 and Gym Leaders. If I went further on, there would be all of the R/S trainers including the main heroes of that region. If you check their Pokemon, it is always a Lv. 5 Ekans, but you could edit that anytime. Or, you could dump out all of the R/S trainers and upload new ones, thus saving space. I think you could also edit the trainers's pictures and I'm pretty sure Oak was there...

    Oh look, I'm starting to sound like I'm in the ROM place...

    • Oh, that's a pretty creative idea.

    And, yeah, I was shocked aswell when I checked. Why did Gamefreak add that?

    • Well remember Oak is Ash's Grandpa and he taught Ash how to get started on his journey so that would be Oak when he used to battle but now that Ash is on his Journey Oak has retired from battling. I think they might have forgotten about the sprite or meant to change it at some point but did not have time to do that before the games were release. That is what I can come up with anyway.:)

    • I think I can clear this up - the Professor Oak sprite that you saw in unLZ GBA, if what I remember is correct, was from R/S or aybe Emerald, as it is among other RSE trainer sprites. It's weir,d but FRLG does have all of the RSE trainer sprites. You probably didn't find it in A-Trainer as it is, as I said, from RSE. I haven't tested anything, but I think that if you were to load R/S or maybe Emerald, you'd find the Professor Oak sprite.

    Don't quote me on anything, though. I haven't checked anything, but I'm pretty certain what I'm saying is true.

    I'll check with my ROM and then edit this post with an answer.
