* [[Obvious Rule Patch]]: The steps taken to remove Psychics as [[Game Breaker|Game Breakers]]: The Special stat was split into Sp. Attack and Sp. Defense (resulting in most Psychics having lower Sp.Defense), and two new types introduced (Steel: resistant to Psychic attacks, and Dark: immune to Psychic attacks and deals extra damage to Psychic Pokémon). Also Ghost attacks now did extra damage to Psychic types like they were originally intended to, and stronger Bug-type Pokémon and attacks were introduced.

* [[Olympus Mons]]: [[Pokémon Red and Blue|The originals]] had them, yeah, but it was in these games where they began appearing on the covers, and where they got some actual backstory to them beyond their simple rarity.

* [[Organ Drops]]: As the set of games that introduce held items to the Pokémon series, Gold and Silver provide the first examples of… well, not organs, but you can find eggs, beaks, claws, pearls, milk, scales, and mushrooms attached to wild Pokémon, presumably all produced through their natural biology.
* [[Redundant Researcher]]: Come on, Alph Ruins researchers. It does not take ten years to assemble a jigsaw puzzle.

* [[Serendipity Writes the Plot]]: A lot of people think that the reason Kanto was scaled down due to hardware limitations, but Gold and Silver’s memory chips actually had plenty of free space and could have easily fit dozens more maps, events, and music. The real reason that many buildings and dungeons in Kanto have been scaled down so much is [[Schedule Slip]]—interviews reveal that Game Freak are notorious within Nintendo for failing to get things done on time. The in‐game explanation for the drastically reduced scope of caves and dungeons? [[Ass Pull|Rock slides.]]
