===Errors===
* On page 8, the guide states that 's evolution is affected by the time of day. However, each Wurmple's evolution is determined randomly, unrelated to time of day.
** Interestingly, in the Pokédex that the guide contains, the guide correctly states that Wurmple's evolutions are random on pages 120 and 121.
** On the same page, the guide states that Pokémon in "Egg Group 0" cannot produce s. However, the table contains many Pokémon that are but can breed with .
* On page 10, a tip states that breeding two of the same Pokémon will make the resulting Egg hatch faster. This only makes the eggs become available faster, and has no effect on hatching steps.
* On page 19, the guide states that you can choose between the , the , or the , mistakenly switching Treecko and Torchic’s types.
* On page 23, the guide states that Surskit can be found by surfing on Route 102. While this is technically true, this is only possible by mixing records with which the guide does not state.
** Additionally, the guide does not mention that can be found via surfing. However, the guide does mention that Goldeen can be found via fishing. 
* On page 29, a note states that none of the three first partner Pokémon can learn from HM01. However, Treecko and Torchic can learn Cut via the HM. Both of their learnsets on page 114 and 115 correctly list that they can learn Cut.
* On page 31, a tip recommends saving a Premier Ball that is received in Rustboro City, stating that this "strong" Poké Ball would be better off used on a rare Pokémon. The Premier Ball is no different from a normal in usage.
* On page 35, Brawly's signature type is stated to be , and the recommended types to use against him are and . Actually, Brawly's specialty type is Fighting, and the recommended types are Flying and Psychic.
** On page 36, his team overview shows that is pure Fighting-type; Meditite is actually Fighting/Psychic-type.
* On page 44, Wattson's is listed as /; Voltorb is actually a pure Electric-type Pokémon.
** On the same page, the guide states that Wattson has two Steel types, but he only has one: his . This count presumably incorrectly includes Voltorb.
* On page 55, the maps of Meteor Falls are from .
* On page 59, Flannery's is listed as pure ; Camerupt is actually Fire/.
* On page 87, Juan's is listed as pure ; Kingdra is actually Water/.
* On page 95, Glacia's second is listed as Water/Ice-type; Glalie is actually a pure Ice-type Pokémon. Interestingly, her first Glalie has the correct type.
* On page 96, a tip for defeating Drake is to use Electric-type moves on and on the basis that they are both Flying-types. However, this will only inflict neutral damage on them.
* On page 96, Wallace's is listed as Water-type; Tentacruel is actually Water/.
* On page 96, a tip for defeating Wallace states that all of his Pokémon are weak to Electric-type moves; however, his is immune to Electric-type moves and his takes neutral damage from Electric-type moves.
* On page 104, Steven's Metagross is listed as level 58 instead of level 78.
* In the Pokédex, which starts on page 114, there are multiple errors. Even though all stats listed are approximations out of 100 rather than their actual base stat values, some are listed as objectively wrong when properly compared.
** Mudkip is stated to be Water/Ground-type; Mudkip is actually pure Water-type.
** is stated to be weak to Grass-type moves; Gyarados actually takes neutral damage from them.
** In page 140, has its Defense listed as 66 and Special Defense as 60. Gyarados’s actual Defense is lower than its Special Defense at 79 and 100 respectively.
