Pokémon Red (original not FireRed) Trade

InscientBanana

I want a Farfetch'd, I have a Spearow to trade in Vermilion City but this child is giving me a Mr. Mime, and the trade on Route 2 that gives me a Mr Mime gives me a Dewgong instead. What is going on? I probably can't swear here, so I won't.

How exactly are you playing the game?

Is it an original cartridge? If so, it is possible something may have become corrupted on the old hardware.

Did you download a rom from somewhere? If so, someone may have changed the trade data as some kind of joke or for a randomised novelty playthrough.
