When the original Pokemon games Red and Blue were released, players theorised widely about the whereabouts of Mew, the elusive 151st pokemon. One theory was that Mew was hiding under a hard-to-find truck near the SS Anne. When remakes FireRed and LeafGreen were released in 2004, players found the truck again. On examination, players are rewarded, not with a rare Pokemon, but with a cookie, as a nod to the conspiracy.
