Note that if you try to trade your starter to another game to give it Cut to get around this issue, here's where this trope collides headfirst into Developer's Foresight, as overworld use of HMs is tied to badges in order to prevent Sequence Breaking.While a new player can do this by accident, anyone else not doing this for the explicit purpose of glitching the game should probably get a psych evaluation for choosing anywhere that's not the Viridian Forest as their grinding spot for Brock. This was corrected in Japanese Pokémon Blue, as well as all international releases. This means you can't get Poké Balls or purchase items in general, and since getting the Dex is also the flag that tells the Old Man in Viridian City to move, you're also unable to progress past the second town either. In the Japanese Pokémon Red and Green, if you evolve your starting Pokémon before you get to the second town and back (which means raising it from Level 5 to 16 by Level Grinding against Pokémon about levels 2 through 4), the game will assume you already have the Pokédex (since you now have two Pokémon "registered") and never give it to you.This can create a side effect where, if a player receives a Pokémon that knows an HM move before they received that HM, they will become unable to release that Pokémon until they find that particular HM and teach it to another.note This issue is non-existent from Gen VII onwards, where the HM system has been replaced with summoning other Pokémon for the task like in Sun and Moon and/or other services such as modifying your bike for water travel in Sword and Shield. In the Generation IV games, this can create a bit of confusion since Whirlpool is an HM move in HeartGold and SoulSilver but not in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum while the reverse is true for Defog. In addition, HMs cannot be tossed or sold for this very reason. The only way to release a Pokémon that knows an HM move is to teach that move to another Pokémon in the party. This is to prevent players from doing this themselves and getting stuck in a scenario where they can't catch a new Pokémon that can learn the move, since HMs carry traversal moves that are required to finish the game, in hopes of defying this trope. From Generations III to VI, the game will not allow you to release a Pokémon that has been taught a move from a Hidden Machine.
