Back when Pokemon Yellow originally came out, players needed a Surfing Pikachu in order to access the mini-game Pikachu Beach. Moreover, the only way to obtain this Pokemon is with a copy of Pokemon Stadium.

Thankfully, Pikachu’s Beach is still in the 3DS Virtual Console version of Pokemon Yellow. Additionally, you now only need to talk to the man in the Summer Beach House near Fuchsia City to play.
