When I first got Pokémon Red, as a kid, I didn't know you were meant to use Flash to see in I think it was Mt.Moon? I just kept wandering around in the dark thinking it's a puzzle or something. Didn't find out about Flash until I think my third play through, when someone told me or I read it in a guide (I forget which).

I didn’t realise the dot puzzles in Ruby/Sapphire were Braille. Spent weeks trying to reverse engineer a cypher.

I did the same thing with Yellow!

Fun fact. You could talk to Pikachu when in the cave and he would burst some electricity for a short period so you could see the map for a little bit. Can make navigation a bit easier but still tedious.

Same here. But I can now recall the layout of the cave, items and trainers included, from memory anytime I want. A useless skill to have, but I’m sure it’ll come in handy someday.
