  • Several of the phone calls (when they're not being annoying) you can get in HG/SS, but especially the ones from Gym Leaders. This includes Chuck deciding to take his wife to Tojoh Falls, Falkner and Janine's war, Clair thinking her outfit is the latest fashion, and Whitney rambling on about nothing.
    • Chuck's other phone calls are good as well. In particular, one of them has him talking about how his waterfall-generator has been malfunctioning, only to be cut off by it breaking and gushing water everywhere.
    • Blue's phone calls can only seem to fuel the fangirls even more so...when he calls your character and says how you remind him a little bit of Red. But only just a bit.
  • This piece of Lampshade Hanging...the man before the Elite Four offers to teleport you back to New Bark Town, but notes no one takes him up on his offer because everyone wanting to go there just flew there. Completely true. It doesn't help (or, for the player character, hurt) that the Indigo Plateau seems to be the one place in the entire game from which a person can fly to any region in Johto or Kanto.
  • From the original games...we have this lovely bit.

  • From the remakes, when Lance suggests a tag team battle between you, Silver, himself, and his cousin Clair... for some reason, Silver really isn't too keen on the idea of Clair being on his team...or Ethan/Lyra being on a team with Lance. He immediately scoffs at Clair, insulting her wardrobe choice, then telling the hero character (regardless of gender), that you are on his team. We all know what kind of game Pokemon is, but many people couldn't help but find Silver acting like a jealous Tsundere. It came off as rather hilarious.
    • YMMV, but also despite gender, the scene where Silver strips your character of their Team Rocket disguise...mostly because of the dozens and dozens of fanarts that have spawned from this one scene!
      • On that note, try playing the entire game with the interpretation that Silver is a total Tsundere...everything he does suddenly becomes slightly more amusing.
  • In hindsight, this is pretty freaking hilarious: When you're battling Silver in the Radio Tower, he will say the following below when he's down to his last Pokemon. If you've seen this movie, then this comment will cause you to either snicker, giggle, snort, or a combination of all the above.

  Silver: Hey...why so serious?

    • It's even funnier when his last Pokemon is his Haunter.
  • The foreign Team Rocket member in Cerulean City served little purpose other than to be a walking Crowning Moment of Funny. Even though there are several Team Rocket grunts that match his level of ditziness, I dare you to find one with an accent that adorable.

 Rocket Grunt: Oops! I so sorry! You not hurt, okay?

    • And then the guy goes and tops it by shoving himself in between a (utterly bewildered) dating couple to hide from you.
      • Heck, that couple was newly added in the remakes, probably just for the sake of making the Rocket Grunt funnier. It's even better if you try talking to them both before and after the battle!
  • When you're disguised as a TR member during the Radio Tower Raid, and you talk to the Department Store Mananger, he spurts out the following line:

  Department Store Mananger: What is a Team Rocket Member doing in this place? We aren't selling sanity here...

    • The other shoppers, as well as the Rocket grunts outside, will give you some pretty funny lines, too.
