walkthrough

WALK THROUGH

Pallet Town
~~~~~~~~~~~~
You start out in Pallet Town, There you will get your first Pok�mon from
Prof. Oak. You get him to bring you to his laboratory, you must first go
North into the tall grass, you will hear someone say, "Don't go in there!"
It's Prof. Oak, He'll take you to his lab and you'll have the choice of
three Pok�mon, Charmander the fire Pok�mon, Squirtle the water pok�mon,
or Bulbasaur the grass Pok�mon. If you pick any one of these Pok�mon, Gary
will pick the Elementally superior. Water beats Fire, Grass beat Water,
Fire beats Grass. Beginners should pick Bulbasaur, he seems to win
the most battles and beat the most trainers, Medimum style trainers should
pick Squirtle, and Experienced trainers should pick Charmander. Gary will
challenge you right after that, hes not too hard to beat, just keep attacking
and he'll go down (Your Pok�mon will grow a level).After that you will have
to go North to Viridian City.Road to

Viridian City~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Along the road the first guy you see will give you a potion. Also you cannot
catch Pok�mon right now so just defeat the Pidgeys and Rattatas for exp.
points.
Viridian City~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once you reach Viridian City you should go to the Pok�center and heal your
Pok�mon. Go to the Mart and the clerk will hand a parcel to you to deliver
to Prof. Oak, You can jump over the little barriers, you will save time and
also you'll encounter less battles. Upon delivery, Prof. Oak will hand you
the Pok�Dex Gary will note to get a map from his sister (you can too).You
won't have to battle Gary this time so get the map and head back to Viridian.
There you should buy Pok�balls, Potions are not needed really because you are
close to a pok�center. In the area, Pidgeys and Rattatas are the only Pokemon
found.(For exp. points, you can head West and battle Gary, but your Pokemon
should be level 12 or above).Now Head North to Viridian Forest.Viridian Forest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You cannot pick up the items to the right just yet, but you will go back
later in the game. In the forest there are 3 trainers, they use bugs so if
you chose Charmander this should be REALLY easy, if you picked Squirtle or
Bulbasaur then it will still be easy but not as easy as Charmander. Go West
from the beginning and you can pick up a Pok�ball, but you do have to walk
through the grass. Go Northeast of the beginning to fight a trainer(You have
to fight this one), His Pokemon are: Weedle level 6 (Bulbasaur is immune to
the poison in poison sting),and Caterpie level 6. From there go North along
the road (The next trainer is optional) Keep going North and you'll find a
Antidote. Go along the road and you'll find a split towards the end, go
South and you'll find another item. A certain Pokemon you should look for is
Pikachu, Although Pikachu is here, he is weak and doesn't have many moves.
But he is effective against Misty. Once out of the forest, You'll have to
go to Pewter City.

Pewter City~~~~~~~~~~~
In Pewter city you must fight Brock. If you don't you cannot proceed to
Mt. Moon. Brock's Pok�mon are Geodude level 12, and Onix level. 14. Brock's
Pok�mon are easily beaten by Squirtle or Bulbasaur, Charmander's just out of
luck and will have to make it with what he has (Evolving a Kakuna and/or a
Metapod is a good choice if you're using Charmander).The BOULDER BADGE
increases you Pok�mon's power a bit, also flash can now be used(Badge moves
such as FLASH, CUT, FLY, STRENGTH, and SURF can only be used when a HM is
equipped to a pok�mon.)Get some supplies and head to Mt. Moon. You'll want to
get some potions, an Escape Rope or two, and some more Pok�balls if you need
them.

Mt. Moon~~~~~~~~
Mt. Moon is long. Once inside you can find various items, and many people
to battle. Team Rockets first appearance comes in here, They're easy so
don't worry. At the end you'll fight a Super Nerd, After you beat him you'll
get the choice of two fossils, The Helix fossil or the Dome fossil. Which one
you pick matters on what Pokemon you'll get later, Helix: Omanyte,
Dome: Kabuto. You can't get these Pokemon until later in the game so store
then in your PC as soon as you get to Cerulean City. You should get a
Clefairy and a Jigglypuff while you're there(Average level 6-10).Cerulean City
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Did you get a Pikachu in Viridian Forest? If you did and you own a Squirtle
or a Charmander that'll help win if you boosted his stats to about
level 10 or above, If you have Bulbasaur it'll still be easy so don't worry.
You only HAVE to fight one other trainer, the one near the beginning of the
gym is optional. Misty is difficult if you chose Charmander. Her Pok�mon
are Staryu and Starmie. I don't know what level they're at. If you win
you'll receive the CASCADE BADGE, it allows ALL Pokemon up to level 30 to
obey, also lets you use CUT. If you go to the 1st house on the Northwest
side of the city, you can go into the backyard and find a Rare Candy, You'll
have to search a bit but its in the middle of the two rows going horizontally
(Rows meaning spaces North to South in space).Bikes are too expensive right
now (But you'll get one soon enough).Road to Bill's house/Bill's house
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From Cerulean City, head North and fight Gary, go across the bridge and fight
all the trainers there. Go into the grass to the West and get a grass Pok�mon
(Depending on version) and get an Abra also. To catch an Abra, just throw a
Pok�ball at it (its not a guaranteed catch but its the best way right now).Go
East to get to Bill's house, there are lots of trainers in the way so you may
have to go to the Pok�center in Cerulean. Once you get to Bill's house you'll
see a Pok�mon but no Bill. Talk to the Pok�mon and do as he asks. After that
Bill gives you a ticket to the S. S. Anne. Go back to Cerulean and you'll see
that the Police man \ woman?? has moved so you can get into the house. You'll
find a ROCKET in the back, beat him and get TM #28 (DIG) go back in the house
and the guy doesn't care anymore so just keep it! Head South and you'll find
a tunnel, go through it and you'll end up in Vermilion City (In the tunnel
there is a Full Restore but You'll have to search for it because its
invisible, like the Rare Candy).

Vermilion City~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Vermilion you have a few things to do:
1.Get the Old Rod from the fishing guru (Next to the Pok�center),
2.Beat Lt. Surge and get the Thunder Badge,
3.Get the Bike Voucher from the Pok�mon Fan club president,
4.And also get on the S .S. Anne.
First thing first though, Lt. Surge is an electric
type Pok�mon gym leader so use a Diglett from the cave to the East. The
Diglett should be almost totally immune to the attacks of the electric
Pok�mon. To fight Lt. Surge you have to search the trash cans for a switch
(It's random), and the a neighboring can for the second switch. Lt. Surge's
Pok�mon are Pikachu and Raichu, I don't know their levels though. the THUNDER
BADGE speeds up your pok�mon a bit and lets you use FLY. Get the Bicycle with
the Bike Voucher and use that, The Bike speeds your journey up A LOT.S.S. Anne
~~~~~~~~~
On the S. S. Anne there are many good trainers so make sure your Pok�mon's
levels are high and look for the Capt. Because the Capt. gives you the CUT
HM. If you go into the kitchen you will find a Great Ball in one of the trash
cans. Try to search all the rooms because there some great things
in there. From here you should go through the Digletts cave.Diglett's Cave
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not much here, Ride your bike through and catch a Diglett. Once through the
cave you'll see a house. There you can get the Flash HM and the items you
couldnt before (with CUT equipped onto a Pokemon).Go back and East through
the mini-maze. Mini-Maze~~~~~~~~~
Just stay on the middle track and go North on the last turn if you're going
on a track where at the beginning there was a man near a sign your going
the wrong way, you should see a track going left, a man, and another man but
not in the same place. Go Northeast and you should be on a direct track
where a Jr. Trainer(Female) is waiting for you, fight her and go East.
Rock Tunnel~~~~~~~~~~~
Just before the Rock Tunnel you should be at a river with a nearby field and
a little barricade you can jump over. Go South to the Pok�center and heal
your Pok�mon, now go North and catch a Voltorb. Equip Flash on it and proceed
into the cave. Go through the cave, its semi-direct not TOO confusing.
Lavander Town~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once out of the cave you should be just North of Lavender Town.You don't have
to fight the trainers so just go to the Pok�center and heal up. Now Proceed
West and through the tunnel. (You'll have to fight at least 1 trainer) Now
you should end up in Celadon City.

Celadon City~~~~~~~~~~~~
You have a number of things to do here in Celadon:
1.Defeat Erika and get the Rainbow Badge,2.Get the Silph scope,3.Get Eevee,
4.Get the Coin Box for the Game Corner,
5.Get a Fresh Water From the Mart (top floor) and give it to the road guard.
Erika isnt too hard to beat, Just Use a fire or bird Pokemon thats around
the same level as her Pok�mon. You're gonna have to battle at least 3
trainers. You MUST come with a Pokemon with CUT equipped. The easiest way to
go is on the right and hug the left side. Erika's Pok�mon: Victreebel lvl29,
Tangela lvl 24,Vineplume lvl 29. The RAINBOW BADGE make Pok�mon up to level
50 obey, and you can use STRENGTH. Next your gonna have to go into the Game
Corner, fight the guy who is guarding the poster and press the switch behind
it. Go in the door and go down another flight of stairs. There will be a
number of puzzles to solve and Rockets to fight. One guy at the bottom should
drop a lift key. Now take the lift and go to the bottom floor, You'll have to
fight two Rockets and then fight Giovanni, Now after you've fought Giovanni,
he should drop the Silph scope, the one for the ghosts in the Poketower. Now
go back to Lavender Town.

Lavander Town 2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nothing has changed, just go to the Poketower and fight the ghosts. When you
fight the ghosts the silph scope works automatically. Once you've made it to
the 2nd to the top floor a ghost will fight you (pre-programmed battle)This
ghost is Marowak and you cannot catch her. Use a water Pok�mon and it should
be easy.Beat all the Rockets on the top floor and you'll recieve the
Pokeflute from an old man. Now you should be able to wake up the sleeping
Pokemon to the South (Snorlax) Also make sure to capture him because there
are only 2 Snorlaxes in the entire game.

Saffron City~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once you've beaten the ghosts in the Poketower you should go to Saffron City
to Battle Sabrina. But First your gonna have to save the town from Team
Rocket. By now, the guy in front of the Silph co. building has fallen asleep
(He'll be off to the side and won't stop you). Once you go inside its a
maze, First you must fight many people (this includes scientists) and find
the Key Card, This will allow you to get into all the locked areas. Next you
must find a portal that leads you to Gary (You'll have to battle him) once
you defeat Gary, A nearby man will give you Lapras. Go through the other
portal and defeat Giovanni once again. He is easy with Squirtle or Bulbasaur,
since he uses ground Pokemon Water and Grass Pok�mon are effective. You'll
get the Master Ball from the President of Silph co. SAVE IT! Its VERY
important! Store it on your PC. Now Team Rocket has left town so you can now
Go and defeat Sabrina.She uses Psychic Pok�mon and isn't too difficult.Still
be careful, you don't have to fight any trainer besides Sabrina, just go into
the opposite portal unless you want Exp. points, You'll know when you reach
her. Sabrina's Pokemon are Kadabra and other Pok�mon I don't remember. Her
Pokemon should be about level 30 or above. You get the MARSH BADGE for
beating her, Pok�mon up to lvl 70 will obey you. Next to Sabrina's Gym is
the Fighting Dojo. This Gym is fighting Pokemon only, and if you beat all
the trainers you get the choice of Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan. Hitmonlee is a
Kicking based Pok�mon and Hitmonchan is a Punching based Pok�mon. Now you
should head to where you met Snorlax (South of Lavender Town) along route 12
to Fuschia City.Fuchia City~~~~~~~~~~~
once your in Fuschia City, The first thing you should do is go beat Koga, the
poison gym leader. If you picked Bulbasaur this will be an easy task,
Bulbasaur is almost completely immune to poison, for Charmander or Squirtle
I'd suggest a Victreebell or Vileplume depending on which version you have.
There are invisible walls here so you'll have to fight at least 3 trainers
if you don't know where you're going. now I can't give exact directions but
heres what you do, first go above the Pok�mon statue and carefully walk to
the right. Hug the right wall and walk up, you'll have to fight a Juggler.
After you beat him go to the top wall and walk left, You'll have to fight
another trainer here. Now carefully walk right and down to get to Koga. Now,
I'm doing this from memory but his Pok�mon should be around level 35-40.He'll
have poison Pok�mon so carry allot of antidotes unless using Bulbasaur. For
beating him you receive the SOUL BADGE, the defense of your Pok�mon increases
a little and it allows you to use SURF. Next you should go to the Safari
Zone. Here there are many Pokemon that can only be caught here, but first
you must find the GOLD TEETH and the SURF HM. Get in there and get on your
bike and ride East, now from here ride to the hill and up onto it, ride West
and off of it, from here ride Northeast and then Westwhen you get to the
wall. Now you should go Northwest over another hill, you should be in a spot
where there are 3 mini-lakes, you must go Northeast around the Lakes,there
should be a sign next to a bush barrier that says "Trainer Tips: The secret
house is still ahead!". Go South and you should find a Pok�ball item which is
the GOLD TEETH, from there go Northwest until you see a house, go inside and
a man should give you the SURF HM. Try to go outside (Time should have run
out by now) and go to the Warden's house. Give him the teeth and he'll hand
you the STRENGTH HM. A Rare Candy is in the ball on the other side of the
room. Next door to the warden is the Fishing Guru's brother. get the GOOD ROD
from him. Go in his backyard and fish out some Pok�mon. Go West and go on
the Cycle Road and go up to Celadon City. Save your game and try to catch the
Snorlax. Take a Pok�mon with CUT and cut the nearby bush, go around the back
and a woman there will give you the FLY HM. Equip SURF on either Lapras or a
Water Pok�mon you don't really need. Now, if you're still in Celadon City go
to the grass patch just before the Cycling Road and catch a bird. Equip FLY
to it and fly to Pewter City, Go North to the Museum and CUT the bush in the
front. In the back talk to the guy near the item on the pedestal. He'll give
it to you. Now its time to go to Cinnabar Island.Cinnabar
Island~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First you must FLY to Pallet Town. Save your game and go South. From here SURF
down south, you should eventually find Cinnabar Island. Here you'll want to
take the fossil from earlier and go into the research center to the left of
the Pok�center. Go to the 3rd door down and give the man in the back a
fossil, go to the Mart and then back into the center to pick up your new
Pok�mon. Repeat with the amber and you'll get Aerodactyl. Now go and heal
your Pok�mon, buy some supplies, buy some Burn heals, and save. Go into the
burned out building (This is a rough walkthrough, not exact) in here, go
North and examine the statue(A), it should have a switch, press it and go
upstairs. Do the same on this floor (Read the notes if you wish, they tell
the story of Mew and Mewtwo). On the 3rd floor you should press the switch
and go South, don't fight the scientist but instead go(there are two exits, a
big one to the left and a smaller one to the right) take the exit to the
left, you should land on the 1st floor but in an area you couldnt get to.
Defeat the scientists and get the Secret Key. Now exit the building (If you
have an Escape Rope its better) and you can now fight Blaine, the Fire gym
leader (Most of the Pok�mon are level 34 or above).If you chose Squirtle or
Charmander this will be a cinch. Use A strong Water Pok�mon or a semi-strong
water Pok�mon and a semi-strong fire Pok�mon to absorb the damage. You will
have to defeat almost every trainer here to advance. Blaine's Pok�mon should
be about level 40 or above (I'm doing most of this from memory). He'll use
either Ninetails or Arcanine depending on your version, other pok�mon as well
like Rapidash, and Ponyta. The VOLCANO BADGE increases your Pok�mon's
abilities a little. Now your ready to go to the Seafoam Islands.Seafoam
Islands
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From the Pokecenter, heal your Pok�mon and go to the Mart. First prepare with
Ice Heals, the highest potion at that time,2 escape ropes, and lots of Ultra
balls.Take a Fire Pok�mon(Ponytas a great choice if you don't have
Charmander),an Electric Pok�mon (A well leveled Pikachu or Raichu is good),a
Pok�mon with STRENGTH, a Pok�mon with SURF,and Your starting Pok�mon (If you
don't have Charmander),you should also bring a high level Butterfree or a
high level grass Pokemon (With sleep powder).SURF East until you get to the
Seafoam Islands. Here prepare to face level 50 Pok�mon(They won't all be
level 50 but I know one will...).Save and go inside, then get on your Bike
and ride downstairs. Ride until you reach the water and SURF, you should be
swept into another screen. Go East and you should see a blank space(only a 1
step space) search it and you should find an item. From there do North and
get onto land, get on your Bike and Ride West (Not up the stairs) and go up
the new set of stairs (DO NOT SURF! You'll be swept away).You should go
Southeast and Push the Top Left boulder North 2 spaces, Push the opposite
boulder you just pushed into the hole (but don't go in yourself). And push
the remaining boulder in the hole opposite to the one you just were using.
Once you've completed that, jump in the hole. Now SURF North until you reach
a island with a Pok�mon just standing there. Save your game and fight him,
use your fire Pokemon and weaken him.Now take the Pok�mon with sleep powder
and put him to sleep. Now throw Ultra Balls until you catch him (Make sure
you do or else you'll have to start all over). Articuno is level 50 and very
difficult to beat, also he only appears once per game (like all other Pok�mon
just standing there).Now use an escape rope and save. Viridian City 2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From Cinnabar Island Fly to Viridian City. Save and go to the gym. Squirtle
and Bulbasaur will easily beat all Pok�mon in here, Charmander should be
substituted for a high level bird Pok�mon (level 50 Fearow is a good choice)
a high level Water or Grass Pok�mon (In here either is good). I won't reveal
the gym leader for spoiler reasons but his/her Pok�mon are: Dugtrio,
Kangaskhan, Nidoking, Nidoqueen,and 2 others I don't remember. Beating
him/her gives you the EARTH BADGE which makes all Pok�mon obey. Now that you
have all 8 badges, go to Pok�mon league.Pok�mon League/Victory Road
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You'll have to fight Gary along the way to Victory Road. He's hard but easy
enough to beat. You have to bring a Pok�mon with STRENGTH and one with SURF.
Bring some Ultra Balls, Max Potions, Escape Ropes, and a few Full Heals.
Now go through Victory Road and be careful (Moltres is in there but I cannot
give directions).I can't give directions but heres some tips:
1.If you see a boulder with somewhere to push it, Do it,
2.Try To avoid trainers because its hard enough without them,
3.Try to run from most battles, the enemies here are just too strong to
fight them all. Once through victory road you'll be at Indigo Plateau.
The Elite 4~~~~~~~~~~~
Now its time to beat the Elite 4,but you have to prepare first. Get LOTS of
Full Restores (You'll need them more than anything). You don't need much
else in items, a Pokeflute you should take too. Now, bring only your
strongest Pok�mon and try to make sure they're over level 60. Now first you
must fight Lorili, her Pok�mon are Dewgong, Cloyster, Slowbro, Jynx, and
Lapras .I'd suggest a Fire Pok�mon against them. The next person is Bruno,
his Pok�mon are Onix, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Onix, and Machamp. I'd suggest
a water or grass pok�mon. Agatha's next, her pok�mon are Gengar, Golbat,
Haunter, Arbok, and Gengar. I'd use a Psychic Pok�mon. The last one is
Lance,his Pok�mon are Gyarados, Dragonair, Dragonair Aerodactyl, and
Dragonite. I'd suggest Articuno or another high level ice Pok�mon.
SPOILER ALERT! This next piece gives away the end of the game, read on only
if you don't mind the ending.
There is another person that beat you to becoming the Pok�mon Master, Gary!
His Pok�mon are Pigeot, Alakazam, Rhydon, Exeggutor, Gyarados, and his
starting pok�mon. My suggestion is just to use the opposite of what he
started out with Squirtle = Grass, Charmander = Water(or ice but be
careful),Bulbasaur = Fire and hope that your lucky with what you have left,
this will be the hardest battle yet. Well you've just finished the game!
