No known way to distinguish between Gen1 Jap save files for Red/Green and Blue versions #2

The save data for Japanese versions Red, Green and Blue are virtually identical, with no data structure differences, and no version mark exists.

Due to this issue, it is not possible to automatically distinguish between Red/Green and Blue versions. This leads to an inaccurate list of Hidden Items being informed in the checklist and flags dump, as Red/Green has some 'broken' implementations that changes the list from later versions. The In-Game Trade lists also have different creatures, so the description is misleading, although the flags are indeed correct.

Must find a way to distinguish those saves, or ask the user to select which version the save belongs to, in order to accurately present the correct lists by version, as mentioned above.
