Old Man Sprite

The Old Man character appears several times in the PTD to either help the player, give an item, or offer a trade after using certain Pokémon in specific levels.

Appears In[]

  • Cerulean Gym 1
    • Trade: The Old Man will appear and offer to trade a Jynx for your Poliwhirl. The Poliwhirl must be used at least once in the level; a Poliwag that evolves during the level does not count. This is based on an actual trade which can be made in Cerulean City in the original games.
  • Old Rod (Challenge Level)
    • After completing the level, the Old Man will give the Player the Old Rod.
  • Vermillion City
    • Trade: The Old Man will appear and offer to trade a Farfetch'd for your Spearow. The Spearow must be used at least once in the level. This is also based on an actual trade in the original games, though those original ones see the trade with a little girl in Vermillion.
  • Route 2
    • Trade: The Old Man will appear and offer to trade a Mr. Mime for your Abra. The Abra must be used at least once in the level; additionally, the small tree must be removed by a Pokémon that knows Cut.
  • Lavender Town
    • An Old Man is seen in the crowd, while Giovanni is holding his speech. It is unknown if it is the same man, or simply a stock character.
  • Rock Tunnel
  • Route 15
    • After completing the level, the Old Man will give the Player the Super Rod. He only appears the first time that you win this level.
  • Viridian City
    • Once again, an Old Man character is present in the group of characters surrounding Giovanni during the opening cutscene.
  • Viridian Ending
    • Trade: The Old Man speaks to you towards the end of the scene--the skip button may be used to skip directly to his portion. If you have a Slowbro in your party, he will offer to trade a Lickitung for it.
