I could only ever trigger this encounter once, but it was pretty mind-blowing when it happened.

It's rare, but it gives you a pretty strong Pokemon before the first gym (and it's also pretty exciting to see after wandering through an endless "sea" of nothing but Pidgeys and the Caterpie family).

it's actually a rare encounter exclusive to yellow version! yellow introduced a bunch of references to the anime, and this is one of them, with ash having caught his own pidgeotto in viridian forest

My go-to in Blue was hunting around until I could find a Pikachu. Always a really nice early score

The references are pretty cool. Especially when getting the other starters.

Yep.

I forgot to mention that it was only in that version ^^U

Bloody difficult to trigger, too.
