Yellow pods are a recessive trait and for this type of trait to show in the phenotype, both alleles have to be recessive. If there was a recessive allele (yellow) and a dominant allele(green) as it shows in hybrid pods, then the dominant allele would be the one shown and the pod would be green.
A plant with yellow pods can never be a hybrid because yellow pod color is controlled by a recessive allele, meaning the plant must inherit two copies of this allele to display the yellow color trait. Therefore, a plant with yellow pods necessarily has two copies of the recessive allele and cannot have a dominant allele for green pods.

The plant you are referring to is likely the Laburnum tree, also known as the Golden Chain tree. It produces long pods filled with toxic seeds, and its bright yellow flowers bloom in clusters. It is native to southern Europe and is commonly grown as an ornamental tree in gardens.
The F1 generation will all have yellow pods because yellow is dominant over green. This is because each parent plant is true-breeding and would only contribute the dominant yellow allele to their offspring.
Both yellow pea plants and green pea plants can produce pea pods containing seeds that can be cooked and eaten as a nutritious vegetable. The color of the seeds inside the pods will match the color of the parent plant's seeds, so yellow pea plants will produce yellow seeds while green pea plants will produce green seeds.

A Yellow flower is seedless, But have little pods which aren't considered as seeds.
The yellow pods make up 25%, the Green pods make up the other 75%.

Green is the dominant trait in this cross. Mendel's results demonstrate that when a dominant allele (for green pods) is present, it masks the effect of the recessive allele (for yellow pods), resulting in all offspring exhibiting the dominant phenotype. Thus, the true yellow podded plant contributes a recessive allele that does not express in the presence of the dominant green allele.
The F1 generation will all have yellow pods because yellow is dominant over green. This is because each parent plant is true-breeding and would only contribute the dominant yellow allele to their offspring.
Both yellow pea plants and green pea plants can produce pea pods containing seeds that can be cooked and eaten as a nutritious vegetable. The color of the seeds inside the pods will match the color of the parent plant's seeds, so yellow pea plants will produce yellow seeds while green pea plants will produce green seeds.

The pods that appear after flowering are the seed pods.
