Is it still the case in the VC versions of Red and Blue that you can capture a Pikachu in Virdian Forest?
I've been stomping around these woods for almost an hour and I've yet to even see a Pikachu,
They're rare but still in the game. I think they have the same encounter rate as kangaskhan in the safari zone.

Yeah, it's a very very small encounter rate.
>wanting a Pikachu
I usually always found them in the leftmost deadend corner as you enter the forest

Bulba puts it at 5%, that's not that bad

Fucking finally, after a literal hour and a half. Now to just capture it.

Awwwwww yeah

Also keep in mind there are a lot of tiles in viridian forest that CANNOT spawn encounters because of how the tilesetting worked.
>>25755848
Really? How can one tell?

>It got poisoned
You have some guts.
>>25755874
Poisoned had just as much a catch-rate boost as Sleep did back in Gen 1

Who the fuck actually plays in eye-cancer Green mode?

If the grass has one of those star shaped flowers or whatever in the lower right, they won't give an encounter. This is only in R/B
