Welcome to another one of my numerous Pokémon FAQs. It actually hasn't been too
long since I wrote mine for Pokemon Red/Blue/Green - about a week, and I'm
still multitasking Pokemon Conquest while this is written. So that gives you a
good idea for how new this guide is for the game.

But, yeah, there's been a bit of slowdown in my other FAQs, so I figured why
not take my notes for Pokemon Yellow and retranslate Pokemon R/B/G? So that's
what I'm doing. This is actually rather special to me as well: its acceptance
to GameFAQs will mean that I'm the only user to ever create a FAQ/Walkthrough
for every mainstream game in the Pokemon series! (Minus Black/White 2, which
isn't out in the U.S. as of yet.)

Well, crappy intro aside, let's get this show on the road!

v0.50 - Done everything through Section IV of the walkthrough and the glitches
       are also in.  1:16 AM 6/27/2012

v1.00 - Translation of Pokemon Red/Blue/Green completion with fixings to
       conform to Pokemon Yellow data, of course. And so, I've written an FAQ
       for every mainstream Pokemon game released as of this date!!

Welcome to the bulk of this FAQ/Walkthrough. Within this section, you'll find
a wealth of information, guiding you from start to finish for this game. All of
the info is arranged in chronological order. This walkthrough has been divided
into eighteen smaller sub-sections so you can find what you want more easily.
What the sub-sections are can be found by looking in the Table of Contents,
found near the top of the document.


#############################################################################
##                                                                         ##
#     Section I - Through Pewter City's Gym              **POKEMON_41**     #
##                                                                         ##
#############################################################################

Let's start with the basics. Turn on your GB, GBC, GBA SP, GameCube/GameBoy
Player, or whatever you use, and go to the menu. Start up a new game. Professor
Oak of the Kanto region give some info on the world of Pokémon, and ask you to
say your name (not gender in this game). He'll also forget his grandson's name,
which is rather shameful.

O============================================================================O
|  FOR REFERENCE, I WILL REFER TO HIM EITHER AS "Gary" OR "your rival"!  I   |
|  that "Gary" would be largely preferable, but I effectively translated     |
|  this FAQ from Pokemon Red/Blue/Green fitting in Yellow's information, so  |
|  it is just more convenient for me. Deal with it.                          |
O============================================================================O

And so, another Pokémon adventure begins... (After Oak talks some more.)

===============================================================================
                                Pallet Town

Okay, once you gain control of yourself, you'll find yourself in your bedroom
in your house located in Pallet Town. Pallet Town is one of many locales in the
Kanto region of the Pokémon world. To Pallet's south is the ocean and Cinnabar;
to the north are forests. To the west, you'll find Mt. Silver, Tohjo Falls, and
the rest of the Johto region. (Which isn't in these games.)

Okay, anyhow, you're in your room. Interact with the PC and withdraw the Potion
within the storage system. You can mess with the SNES here. As a note of
trivia, in these games' remakes (FireRed and LeafGreen), you actually play with
a NES. Anywho, head downstairs and outside.

Outside, go north and try to leave town. Professor Oak will stop you, telling
you it is too dangerous in the dark grass to travel alone. Just then, a wild
Pikachu attacks, but Prof. Oak professionally catches it with a Poke Ball. He
will then take you to his lab.

There, you'll meet up with your rival. Oak mentions the Pokeball on the table,
offering it to you as your starter Pokemon. As you go to get it, however, your
rival pushes you out of the way, claiming it as his own. This Pokemon ends up
being an Eevee, a traditional starter for the side-games rather than the
mainstream ones. So, in Eevee's stead, you'll be given the Pikachu from before.
Depending on how you look at it, you might've just got screwed: Eevee, in this
game, can evolve into one of three types, but Pikachu/Raichu is always
Electric.

And, of course, your overly-aggressive rival immediately challenges you to a
battle.

|  Unlike most of the practice battles in Pokemon, for that is what this is   |
|  really meant to be, your Pikachu will have a typed-move, Thunderbolt. This |
|  move is of the Electric-type, allowing Pikachu to do 50% more damage, and  |
|  it has the inherent 1-in-4 chance of paralyzing the opponent. So simply    |
|  Thunderbolt Eevee to death; it can't really hurt you with Tackle.          |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Now let's go north and leave Pallet Town.

===============================================================================
                                  Route 1

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Let me explain the above chart. This chart details Pokémon encounters. As
with Black/White, I haven't yet found the exact encounter percentages, so I
will just go on what is given in-game. Everything on the top-half of the table
is pretty obvious. The Trainers' Pokémon (the bottom half) shows the levels of
the Trainers' Pokémon found in an area in accordance to the FAQ. No strategies,
no money amounts, just species and levels. Each line is one trainer, unless
otherwise noted.

Also, there is an items checklist. You noticed this in the previous section,
but better late than never. It's obvious, though. It shows you what you'll be
allowed to get, item-wise, and puts it in a handy checklist format should you
want to print it out.

Anyhow, there isn't much here. Go north along the route and talk to some guy
on the way. You'll get a Potion. Continue north until you hit Viridian City.

===============================================================================
                               Viridian City
===============================================================================

When you arrive, head into the red-roofed building. This is the most essential
tool for all Pokémon Trainers, the Pokémon Center. Speak with the nurse at the
desk to be able to fully heal the Pokémon in your party for free. Nearby is a
PC - you can use it to access the Pokémon storage and item storage. There are
some linking things, as well, upstairs, I believe.

Anyhow, we WOULD go for the Gym here, but the Gym Leader is out somewhere.
*sigh*  Well, let's continue forward.

Let's momentarily go west onto Route 22.

===============================================================================
                                  Route 22

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

We are only going here for a few moments. You can't go much farther here -
you'll need eight Gym Badges, for one thing, before getting to do much else.
Anyhow, there are some Pokémon here. You can grind against them for now.

Anyhow, return east into Viridian.

===============================================================================
                               Viridian City

|  Oak's Parcel ......................................................... []  |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Well, we know Pewter City has a Gym (as according to this FAQ and the anime)
so why not head north to there? Well, an old man is blocking you and won't let
you by.

So, what to do? Go into the blue-roofed building, the PokéMart. You normally
can buy various items in here. The clerk will notice you when you enter and
hand over a package that you are to deliver to Professor Oak. Leave the
PokéMart and exit to the south.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Go into your house and speak with your mom to restore your starter's health.
Then go into Oak's lab. You'll end up giving him the package, with your rival
soon coming in. You are then given the Pokédex.

The Pokédex is this item that can record the data of all 151 species of Pokémon
in existence. (Technically, as of the release of Black/White, it is 649, but
the first gen only had 151 and no second-gen-only trades.) To record the data
of a Pokémon in here, you must catch it. You can use the Pokédex to find which
Pokémon you have seen and have caught, in which case you can find where they
reside.

Next, go outside and into your rival's house. Speak with his sister to get the
Town Map, which shows the whole Kanto region.

Anyhow, finish up any business you have here and exit to the north.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

As you can see above, the PokéMart (the blue-roofed building) is now selling
items. You should have about $3,000 (at least, the other games do). Pick up a
few extra Potions and Antidotes if you have money after buying Poké Balls. Ten
($2,000) is a good number.

Hm... Seems like something is up on Route 22. Go out to the west.

|                                                                             |
|  Pidgey is weak to Rock, Ice, and Electric and is immune to Ground.         |
|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: Pikachu + Thunderbolt = a winner is you.                  |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Catch a few Pokémon if desired, then return east to Viridian. You'll probably
want to catch Spearow or Pidgey to use for Fly later on; Spearow tends to be
more powerful, so it is my preference. Mankey also makes a nice recruit for the
first Gym, and Nidoran may help in the Grass Gym later on.

As you return, look slightly north for a gap between the fence and a rock. Go
along this path to find a Potion.

Go further north to find the old man from earlier. He's had his coffee, so he
is just cheerful. He'll show you how to catch a Pokémon, but fail. That leads
to the "Old Man Glitch", discussed later in this FAQ, at the end, though I
think it was fixed in this game.

Basically, to capture a Pokémon, first, it must be wild. It can't be owned by a
Trainer. Secondly, you will benefit from lowering the target's HP as much as
possible without inducing a faint/KO - low-power moves are very key for this.
Finally, inducing a non-damaging status (preferably Paralysis) will further
boost the capture rate. To capture, go into the Bag during battle and opt to
use a Pokéball. (For reference, Pokéball is the generic term for the units
used to capture and store Pokémon. Poké Ball refers to the specific Pokéball
initially available with no special effects.)

Heal at the Pokémon Center if needed and go north onto Route 2.

I have a tip for you. Catch Caterpie. Why? Well, firstly, it evolves at Lv. 7
to Metapod) and again at Lv. 10 (to Butterfree). Bug Pokémon are known for
their many statusing abilities, such as Stun Spore, which help out with
catching Pokémon.

Anywho, once you enter the forest, go west and defeat the Lass in the grass.
Then go along the path to the north and west to find a Poke Ball. Backtrack to
the entrance and go east. At the non-battling Trainer, go north to find a Bug
Catcher to fight.

Continue along the path to another Bug Catcher, then go along the west side of
the path to find the Antidote. Go along the path -- the fork shouldn't affect
you at all -- and you'll reach another Bug Catcher. Defeat him and continue
along the path.

At the southern side of the second long grass patch after the battle, you'll
notice a small alcove to the east, in which you'll find a Potion. Go west and
north to find one more Trainer, then continue north to leave the woods.

steps and one west, and examine the light-green grass one tile north to grab a
Poké Ball.

Nothing else to mention here. Go to the Gym. If you don't know what it looks
like, try to exit Pewter by heading east onto Route 3. You'll then be escorted
to the Gym.

and challenge Brock.

|  These two Pokémon share the same type stuff. They are weak to Water (4x),  |
|  Grass (4x), Fighting, and Ice moves. They are immune to Electric. They     |
|  are advantageous over Fire, Bug, Poison, Rock, Ice, and Electric.          |
|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: If you don't have a Pokemon other than Pikachu, give up.  |
|  Pikachu's Electric moves won't do any damage to these Pokemon, and a       |
|  Normal-type move will just be crappy. Go back to Route 22 and catch a      |
|  Mankey to use here; they learn Low Kick pretty early, which deals double   |
|  the normal amount of damage to these Pokemon.                              |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, you will get the Boulderbadge and TM34, which teaches Bide, a
move that let's the user take damage over a few turns and later toss it all
back at the opponent with double the power.

Go east onto the Route and you'll see some Trainers in the near vicinity. Go
east and defeat the Lass, then go north to find a Bug Catcher. Go west to find
a Youngster. Defeat him and continue to the right to find another Lass and
another Bug Catcher.

Hop down south to find another Youngster, then go down and around to the right
to find a Bug Catcher. Then go along the Route to the patch of grass. Defeat
the lass to the east.

Ah, grass! That green plant filled with chlorophyll, having a mystical quality
in Pokémon. =/  All weird talking aside, you'll want to note Sandshrew. It has
some nice power, especially versus Electric types. It also will be a decent HM
slave, so catch two. Mankey will be nice for a Fighting-type, and you should
already have Spearow and Rattata.

Eventually, head north to find a Pokémon Center. Heal up there and also note
the man inside who will sell Magikarp for $500. While Magikarp is iconic for
being more useless than fire underwater, it's evolution, Gyarados, is like its
polar opposite. It's also easy to catch later on, but if you like go to the
trouble, here ya go. You should have raised $1,170 fighting those Trainers.

Once you're done, head north into Mt. Moon.

<== 1F ==>

When you enter, head north and defeat the Lass. Then go west and north to the
Bug Catcher. Head northwest to find a Potion, then go south from there to find
TM12, which teaches Water Gun. Go east to the Lass you beat earlier, then head
northeast. You'll notice a ladder; use it.

<== B1F ==>

Down on B1F, you'll want to go along the path for a bit to find another ladder.
Use it.

<== B2F ==>

Nearby, you'll find another new class of Pokémon trainer, and perhaps the
worst as far as ethics go. Defeat him and go east. On the raised ledge, you can
find an HP Up. Sweet; these cost almost $10,000 in this game! And for good
reason: they boost your Pokémon's HP Effort Values (EVs, which determine
level up stat boosts) by 10, which is a little less than 2% of the max. EVs are
accumulated through battling, so you see my point?

Go back upstairs.

<== B1F ==>

You'll notice a fork in the path. Go south, first. Defeat the Super Nerd and
go southwest to find another Potion. Go around that big rock to find another
Bug Catcher, then go southeast to find the rare Rare Candy. These items are
perhaps the best you can find: not buyable by any means, and there's a very
limited amount in the game, and for good reason: they instantly raise your
Pokémon's level by one! I think it might be most efficient to use one after
leveling up, because I think your EXP. drains out after its use.

Go north to find an Escape Rope, which will let you instantly leave a cave and
some other areas. Further north, you'll find a Lass. Defeat here and go west
and south to the ladder.

<== B2F ==>

Defeat the nearby Rocket grunt and go north to find TM01, Mega Punch. It's a
Normal-type move of decent physical power. Go east and examine the stand-out
rock to find an Ether, which helps to heal PP. You usually can't buy these, so
save them for emergencies.

Go back to the top floor.

<== 1F ==>

Go west to find a Youngster. Defeat him and go north to find the Hiker. Defeat
him and you'll notice a ladder. Don't yet use it; rather, go northwest to find a
Moon Stone. Only four Pokémon in this game will evolve via the Moon Stone:
Jigglypuff (into Wigglytuff), Clefairy (into Clefable), Nidorino (into
Nidoking), and Nidorina (into Nidoqueen). There is one for each of them, this
being one of them.

Take the ladder to the southeast down a floor.

<== B1F ==>

*yawns*  Defeat the Rocket hear, though beware of Hyper Fang -- I believe it
halves your current HP. Go along the path east, south, west, and north. At the
end, you'll need to fight another Rocket.

Go north some more and go along the narrow eastbound path. At the end, examine
with A to find a second Moon Stone! Go north and fight the Super Nerd near the
two fossils. After the fight, you'll get a choice of the two fossils. Each of
the Pokémon will be pretty similar, as this needless chart reveals. Pick one.

O==========O==================O================O==============================O
|  Fossil  |  Pokémon Within  |  Pokémon Type  |  Pokémon's ability does...   |

|  Helix   |  Omanyte         |  Rock/Water    |  Prevent critical hits.      |
O==========O==================O================O==============================O

Anywho, after this, continue along the path and past two ladders to leave this
place...

Well, after a fight against some familiar faces if you've seen the anime. If
you don't recognize them, but have seen the anime, I oughta smack you through
the computer...

When you arrive, head on over to the Pokémon Center and heal up. Visit the
PokéMart next, if you want. You will find a new item, the Repel. It helps to
keep Pokémon off of you. Personally, it's useless because you should be WANTING
EXP., not avoiding it. Though I guess low-level players might enjoy it.

Anyhow, go into the house west of the Pokémon Center and, in there, you'll be
able to get a free Bulbasaur!! Go wild now, for Bulbasaur is one-of-a-kind in
this game, and will greatly help in the next Gym ... You know, once it gets a
few levels from Lv. 10.

In the northwestern house, you'll find a man who informs you of all of the
badges' properties. Go around back of his house and examine of the tiles there
to find a Rare Candy!

Leave here and go south to find a shop. The man inside will sell you a Bicycle
for the low, low price of a mere $1,000,000! ... You know you can't afford
that. For two reasons: firstly, you will need some insane grinding or trading
for that much money, and secondly, you can only have $999,999. (This amount
was later made much higher by Black/White - I think it was $999,999,999.)  v_v

Oh well. Let's head into the Gym.

|  Staryu is weak to Grass and Electric. The main problem with it is the      |

|                                                                             |
|  Starmie is weak to Grass, Electric, Bug, and Ghost types. It likes to use  |
|  Tackle, Water Gun, or Bubblebeam.                                          |
|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Pikachu, Oddish, or Bellsprout at     |
|  Lv. 20+ are enough for this battle, as long as they have a Grass move      |
|  (such as the Razor Leaf move). If this is not possible, try to use a       |
|  Pokémon not of the Fire, Rock, or Ground typings -- for example, use       |
|  Pidgeotto and Kadabra -- or those of the Fighting or Poison types.         |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After you win, you shall obtain the Cascadebadge, TM03 (Water Pulse), and the
ability to use the HM move Cut outside of battles.

|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Eevee is weak to Fighting and immune to Ghost.                             |
|                                                                             |
|  Spearow is weak to Ice, Rock, and Electric. It is immune to Ground.        |
|                                                                             |
|  Rattata is weak only to Fighting and is immune to Ghost.                   |

|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: For this one, you should be fine with using Pikachu or    |
|  Bulbasaur on Eevee and Rattata. Sandshrew needs attention from Bulbasaur,  |
|  or Ivysaur if you've got that, and Spearow pretty much needs Geodude or    |
|  Pikachu.                                                                   |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After defeating your rival, you'll see him leave. Heal up back in Cerulean,
then go north to the Nugget Bridge.

Okay, when you enter the Bridge area, the general idea is to first fight five
Trainers of increasing difficulty. You should be able to go to the Pokémon
Center and heal in-between battles as needed.

Now, at the end, you'll be given a Nugget and an offer to join Team Rocket.
(Of course, this is a Team Rocket grunt.) Your character refuses the offer, so
you have to fight, correct? Do so.

Once you're done here, return to Cerulean, heal up, and continue north onto
Route 24.

Anyhow, while in the grass to the west, defeat the Trainer. This same Trainer
is the one that allows the Mew glitch, so hint hint. This is the only way to
get a Mew in Pokémon R/B/Y/G now in 2012, short of trading with lucky people.
See the glitches section at the end of the FAQ for more info.

Return to the northern end of the Nugget Bridge and go northwest to find TM45,
Thunder Wave, an Electric-type move that doesn't damage, but actually will
induce Paralysis should it hit. Also nearby should a Trainer who will hand over
a free Charmander. Charmander is the Fire-type Kanto starter, and definitely
will be helpful in the Grass-type Gym.

Then go east, and battle the two Hikers. After that, you should be on Route 25.

After defeating the two Hikers, you should on Route 25.

Continue along the Route to battle the first four Trainers above. After
defeating the Hiker, you should go north and HAVE THE TRAINER TO THE NORTH
WALK TO YOU. This is so you can obtain TM19, Seismic Toss.

Anyhow, your next opponents, including the aforementioned Trainer, should be
a Jr. Trainer and a Youngster. After defeating the Youngster, continue along
the path to find a Lass. Defeat her.

Continue along the path to find a house. Go inside to find something that looks
a bit like a Pokémon. The "Pokémon" reveals itself to be Bill, among the
biggest of the biggest Pokémaniacs and the creator of the PC Pokémon Storage
System. One of his experiments has transformed him into a Pokémon. You'll be
forced to help out. When Bill enters the chamber, press A on the computer to
transform Bill into a human being. He'll hand you the S.S. Ticket as a reward.
Now leave the house and continue back west to Route 24.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center and buy some items as needed. In the northeastern
bit of town, you'll remember a house being guarded by a police officer from
before. He's failed to do his job because, as you can quite see when inside, a
Team Rocket grunt ended up taking TM28 (Dig) from here! Leave via the back door
and beat 'im good.

After the battle, you'll be given TM28, Dig. Dig is a very decent Ground-type
move. It puts the user underground for one turn, and will only be damaged by
Earthquake and the like during that time, then deals Ground-type damage on the
next turn. The people who originally had the TM taken from them will let you
have it, so enjoy. Also note that it is a bit like an Escape Rope when used out
of battle.

Continue southward to Route 5.

|=============================================================================|
|  Trainers' Pokémon: No Trainers are found in this location.                 |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Here, you'll be able to find Jigglypuff and Abra. Jigglypuff is just pretty
rare and you'll want it for the Pokedex, or perhaps an HM slave. Abra makes a
great asset once you evolve it, thereby letting it learn something other than
that damnable Teleport.

Further along the Route, you find you cannot go east - there is a tree in the
way. Okay, south it is. You'll be able to jump the ledges. Do so to find the
Pokémon Daycare, where you leave one of your Pokémon. By doing so, the Pokémon
will gain 1 EXP. per step you taken. However, the moveset changes are not
controlled by you, and you must pay $100 + ($100 X number of levels gained).
So... Magikarp...? (Note, however, ublike Gen. II onwards, no breeding is
allowed in these games.)

Further south, you cannot go into Saffron City because the guard is thirsty and
will be a complete douche about it.

There is only one option left - taking the underground pathway connecting
Route 5 with Route 6. Go into that building. Speak with the girl for a trade -
your Cubone for her Machoke. While you don't have a Cubone *yet*, you will
want to do this at some point because the trade will cause her Machoke to
become Machamp, a great Fighting-type Pokemon.

When you're done, go on downstairs and follow the linear path, and exit the
building to find Route 6.

|                     Spearow Lv. 16, Raticate Lv. 16                         |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

So then, upon exiting from the Underground Path, go to the west and beat up the
Bug Catcher, then go southeast for two Jr. Trainers. Further southeast will be
a Bug Catcher, again. Then head southwest to find the final trainers of this
route, coincidentally a pair of Jr. Trainers. Go south to find Vermilion.

You will find a new item, the Super Potion, in the PokéMart now._This item
heals 50 points of HP (heals 2.5x more than the Potion; costs 2.3x more).

After arriving, head on into the Pokémon Center and speak with the nurse behind
the counter to heal yourself.

Leave the Pokémon Center and go into the house on the left. Speak with the man
inside and say "Yes" to get the Old Rod. In the ever-famous words of another
GameFAQs user, AstralFire, "Great. A Magikarp stick." Couldn't have put it
better. That's all the Old Rod can do, as far as I know - catch Magikarp.

Leave the house and go east, then south, then to the far west to find the
Pokémon Fan Club. One guy inside mentions something along the lines of his
Pikachu being cuter than that one ... where is this "that one"? There isn't
another in the building.  @_@  Anyhow, speak with the old man and say "Yes" and
you will eventually obtain a Bike Voucher, which allows you to obtain a free
Bike. Know what? Let's go to Cerulean real quick. Exit Viridian to the north.

Okay, we're back. Remember the Bike Shop from earlier? Go there now. Before,
you would have had to pay the impossibly-high $1,000,000. Now, you can get the
Bicycle for FREE! Sweet! The Bicycle is able to move much faster than the
Running Shoes.

Heal up as needed, then leave to the south.

Okay, back in Vermilion again. Heal up if needed at the Pokémon Center. Go back
to the Pokémon Fan Club. In Red/Blue, you can speak with a girl that gives a
Farfetch'd (a Normal/Flying-type) for a Spearow (also a Normal/Flying type).
You should remember that a Farfetch'd cannot be caught anywhere in the Kanto
region (guess she got hers from Johto?) in Red/Blue; here in Yellow, you can
find one on the Silence Bridge.

So why'd I mention it? It's a nice bit of trivia. >_>

Next, let's go to the harbor, where the S.S. Anne is docked.

First, go south and east and through the door. Defeat the Gentleman within and
leave. Go southeast and downstairs. Go through the door at the left and get
the Max Potion. The next room to the left has two Sailors to battle. Go left
one more room to another Sailor, as well as an ether. Continue left for a
fourth Sailor fight and TM44. TM44 teaches Rest, which is a move that puts your
Pokémon to sleep and heals their HP, waking up later.

Go left one more room to find two more Trainers to fight. Afterwards, head back
east and upstairs, then go back to below the entrance. Go southeast of there to
fight another Gentleman past the door. Go left three doors and inside, then
beat the two Trainers within. Also grab the item, which is TM08. TM08 teaches
Body Slam, a fairly powerful Normal-type attack that has a good chance of also
inducing Paralysis on the Pokémon it hits.

Continue left some more outside. At the west wall, go down past the stairs to
fidn the kitchen. Go to the east side of this room where the chefs are peeling
some 'taters and examine the southernmost trash basket to find a Great Ball,
which has a 50% greater chance of catching a Pokémon than the basic Poké Ball.

Leave the kitchen and go north and downstairs. Go south and downstairs again,
then to the far west side to hit the deck, metaphorically of course. Defeat the
two Trainers here, then go back into the ship and to where you entered this
floor.

Go through the first room on the right and you'll be shown a picture of a fat
Pokémon, Snorlax. Next room: two Trainers and the useful Max Ether. Two rooms
later: two more battles and a Rare Candy!

Now, I suggest you leave the ship and heal up at the Pokémon Center. Return and
continue along the path you were going along to find your rival! He brags
briefly about having caught 40 Pokémon by now before battling you.

|                                                                             |

|                                                                             |
|  Rattata is weak only to Fighting and is immune to Ghost. As a bit of       |
|  trivia, in Red/Blue/Green/FireRed/LeafGreen, this Pokemon was actually a   |
|  Lv. 16 Raticate, which is illegal.                                         |
|                                                                             |

|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: For this one, you'll want to do the same as last time.    |
|  Use Pikachu/Graveler for Spearow, Ivysaur for Sandshrew, and just about    |
|  anything will do for Rattata and Eevee, honestly. Guess he's been a bit    |
|  TOO busy catching Pokemon to actually give his Pokemon decent training.    |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After winning, your rival leaves. Continue and you'll find a man near a trash
can. You will end up giving the old man a back massage. He rewards you with
HM01 (Cut).

Cut is a particularly weak Normal-type move. Using up a useful move slot for a
weak move isn't a good idea... Eh, I simply made a Sandshrew my HM slave and
moved on.

Okay, anyhow, exit the S.S. Anne.

Go ahead and defeat the three Trainers in here.

Okay, now onto the puzzle. In the northern part of the building are some
electric bolts of energy, blocking the path to Lt. Surge. You are to remove
them. To do so, examine a trash can and you'll probably find a switch. Examine
another NEXT TO IT to possibly find another switch. The second switch wins it
for you. For reference, here is some math/diagrams.

         |   Correct Guess    |  1 in 2   |  1 in 3   |  1 in 4   |
         O====================O===========O===========O===========O

If you fail to find the second switch, you must start that part all over.

Eventually, you'll get it right. Continue north to find, speak to, and battle
Lt. Surge.

|  Money Earned: $2,772.                                                      |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Raichu is weak to Ground only. Its offense consists of the Attack-reducing |
|  Growl, the Electric-type Thunderbolt that also may paralyze, and the two   |
|  Normal-type moves Mega Punch and Mega Kick.                                |
|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: Graveler is the prime choice here, given its resistance   |
|  or immunity to all attacks here. Something like Dugtrio or Sandslash also  |
|  make good ideas due to immunity, and Pikachu *does* resist Thunderbolt...  |
|  I wouldn't bring a Water- or Flying-type, though...                        |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After winning, you'll get the Thunderbadge and TM24. This teaches Thunderbolt,
one of the best Electric moves in the game. It's personally my favorite, for
it balances power with accuracy. Of course, Thunder is more powerful by about
25%, but also has about 30% less accuracy.

When you arrive, go south and into the house to find a boy inside. Speak with
him to receive Mr. Mime for an Abra. I only mentioned this for completion --
honestly, I would prefer you stick with Abra. Of course, Mr. Mime can only bew
gotten this way (or trading), so I guess you'll probably be backtracking to
Mt. Moon, eh?

Anyhow, exit, go south, and Cut down the tree. Enter the nearby building. In
there is another one of Prof. Oak's aides. If you have caught 10+ Pokémon
species, you will get HM05, Flash.

Flash is a move that will lower the opponents' accuracy by ~25% in battle. Out
of battle, it will light up caverns and such that are too dark. For example,
Mt. Moon and Diglett's Cave are NOT Flash-able places. You can place it on Abra
or Bellsprout, as well as some other Grass and Psychic Pokémon, to my
knowledge. It is by no means a requirement for game completion like most HMs,
but you'll want it.

Leave the building, heading south, and grab the HP Up. Keep going south to find
a Moon Stone. Then return north to the Diglett's Cave entrance. Go west and
Cut down the tree, then go north into Pewter City.

Inside, The top-center man will give you an Old Amber to take to a Pokémon Lab.
Let's hold onto it, for we can later transform it, like the Dome/Helix Fossil,
into a Pokémon. This one is Aerodactyl, a Rock/Flying Pokémon.

Now, we're now going to backtrack to Viridian City for a quick thing. Nothing
major. Head south onto Route 2.

Now, go to the Cut tree near the water. Cut it down and grab the item there,
TM42. TM42 teaches Dream Eater, a move that induces damage on Sleeping Pokémon
and let's the user absorb some HP as well.

So, east of the Vermilion entrance to Diglett's Cave, you'll find Route 11. Go
north to find an Awakening. Go along the northern path and you'll find four
Trainers. After beating the next Trainer, go into the nearby building and
upstairs to find another trade. Here, you'll receive a Lickitung for a
Dugtrio. Not the best trade in existence, but, in Pokemon Yellow, it is the
only place to get one.

Also up here is one of Prof. Oak's aides. He'll give you the Itemfinder, but
only if you've caught 30+ species of Pokémon. The Itemfinder simply allows you
to find hidden items.

Leave the building heading east to find a ... thing ... in the middle of the
road. This "thing" is a Pokémon known as Snorlax and is among the heaviest of
Pokémon, weighing in at just over one-half imperial ton in weight (just under
one-half metric ton). You cannot wake up the sleeping Pokémon, nor eject it
somehow into the nearby ocean. Well, return to the main part of Route 11 and
defeat the southern trainers. You'll fight two, then defeat the last three
Trainers. Return to Vermilion.

done so. Also be sure to bring along a few Super Potions.

Continue onto the Route and beat up the Jr. Trainer, then go down the two
ledges to find TM30. TM30 teaches the move Teleport, the one Abra are infamous
for - it allows instant escape from battles and caverns. Defeat the Hiker
nearby, then go east and up the ledge.

Head to the southeastern portion of the Route and beat that Hiker. Head west
and up two ledges to find a Trainer to beat. Defeat him and go north to find a
Bug Catcher. Go west to find the grass on this Route. Go back east when done
catching or grinding or whatever, then go down two more ledges.

Go east and up the ledge to find another Bug Catcher, then north and west is a
Jr. Trainer. Go east and up the ledge near the Bug Catcher from before to battle
a Hiker. Beat him and go east, then down the ledge to find the final Trainer
for this route. After beating here, go east to Route 10.

When you enter, use Flash so you can see something. Then go southeast and
defeat the Pokémaniac, then northeast to find a ladder. Use it to go down a
floor.

Go southwest and along the path to another Pokémaniac. Go west and along the
path a north/west fork. Go north and you'll soon fight a Jr. Trainer. Go
northeast for another Pokémaniac. Continue along the path until the fork. Go
north to another battle, then around the rock to the south to find another
battle. Use the ladder to the northwest to go down another floor.

Get rid of the two Hikers here, then go east. You'll find another Hiker south
of the ladder. Use the ladder nearby to go down one more floor.

Go west and beat up the Jr. Trainer, then further west for a fight against a
Hiker. Go northwest from there for another fight, this one versus a Pokémaniac,
then go north and take the ladder.

Take out the nearby pair of Jr. Trainers, then go along the path to the west
and defeat the final Trainer here. Go west a bit and then south to find the
exit.

Outside, defeat the Jr. Trainer nearby, then go east. Examine the odd bush to
find a Max Ether, then go west from the exit to find a Hiker. Go down the ledge
for another Hiker battle, then go east to find the final Pokémaniac of this
area.

Then simply head into Lavender Town.

If this is the first time you've been shopping since getting the Thunderbadge,
you'll notice the Great Balls that are now available. They have 1.5x the catch
rate of the normal Poké Ball. The Revive is a status-healing item, used for the
faint/KO status (heals with 1/2 HP). Buy a few of both.

The only thing of interest here at the moment, aside from the Pokémon Center
and the PokéMart, would perhaps be the Name Rater's house, south-southwest of
the large Pokémon Tower. The Name Rater will allow you to rename any Pokémon
THAT YOU HAVE OWNED (ie. not from trades).

Exit town, heading west.

While you are here, it will be quite key to pick up an Abra or a Kadabra if you
haven't yet done so. Kadabra and Alakazam are fairly versatile Pokemon and are
useful versus Poison and Fighting types.

Go southwest and beat the Lass, then west for a Gambler. You can Cut down the
tree to the west to reach the grass for this Route, also taking a shortcut. I
still recommend first going northwest of the Gambler and beating a Super Nerd,
then go west and beat up the four adjacent Trainers.

Go south to find the western exit of the grass patch; enter if you want, though
you will have to Cut down a tree. Go west from there to find a Gambler near the
building, and a Super Nerd to the north of the Gambler. Go into the building
now and go along the Underground Path to Route 7.

Okay, we're finally in Celadon. Head over to the Pokémon Center and heal your
party. Then head over to the western side of the city and go into the Dept.
Store. Buy some stuff. There are also a few things of note: firstly, a guy on
3F hands over TM18 (Counter); secondly, give the girl on the rooftop some of
the Vending Machine drinks to receive TMs - TM13 (Ice Beam) for Fresh Water,
TM48 (Rock Slide) for Soda Pop, and TM49 (Tri Attack) for Lemonade. Also be
sure to buy some Lemonades (overall better than Super Potions), and keep a
Fresh Water for future perusal in a story event.

Return to the Pokémon Center, go around back, follow the path, and go the
mansion's back door. Go to the top floor and into another room to get a free
Eevee at Lv. 25. With certain methods, it can evolve into one of seven Pokémon:

O----------------O------------O----------------------------------------------O
|  Eevee-lution  |   Typing   |                    Method                    |
O----------------O------------O----------------------------------------------O
|  Flareon       |  Fire      |  Use a Fire Stone.                           |
|  Jolteon       |  Electric  |  Use a Thunderstone.                         |
|  Vaporeon      |  Water     |  Use a Water Stone.                          |
|  Espeon        |  Psychic   |  Only for Gold/Silver and later releases.    |
|  Umbreon       |  Dark      |  Only for Gold/Silver and later releases.    |
|  Leafeon       |  Grass     |  Only for Diamond/Pearl and later releases.  |
|  Glaceon       |  Ice       |  Only for Diamond/Pearl and later releases.  |
O----------------O------------O----------------------------------------------O

You can evolve it into whatever you want. Throughout the course of the game,
you are supposed to get Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, all of
which you have except for Squirtle as of now. So I guess I would evolve Eevee
into a type of which I have little of; Fire tends to be rare, so I often go
for Flareon.

Now, head to the bar in the southeastern part of the city. A man within will
hand over a free Coin Case for use at the trademark Rocket Game Corner. It's
next to the Prize Exchange building nearby. There, you can buy cruelly-caught
Pokémon for various prices. Scyther and Abra are mighty fine purchases. The
TMs? Meh. You can actually buy Coins in the Rocket Game Corner itself, so you
can always spend $92,000 on Dratini and live with it.

Next up, go to the Rocket Game Corner. It is southwest of the Pokémon Center.

When you enter, go to the Team Rocket grunt standing next to the counter,
standing near the poster as well, and speak with him. Defeat him in battle. He
will flee. Examine the poster he was near and you'll be allowed into the base.

Inside, go southeast to one grunt and beat him, then go west for another. Go
south of the Rocket to find an Escape Rope. Return to the dual staircases and
head down a floor.

Go south and west to battle another Rocket, then go further west to find a
puzzle using arrow tiles. Use the bottom of the leftbound ones, then grab the
item in the small alcove to the south to find a Moon Stone. Return to where
you stopped and go along the top wall to the Nugget. Return to where you
stopped once more, go south slightly, then go east on the arrow to find TM07
(Horn Drill).

Go east and south and on the westbound arrow. Take two paces east after you
stop, and you'll ride for a bit. After stopping, take the westbound arrow. For
another item, take the southern westbound arrow, then the eastmost northbound
arrow to find a Super Potion.

Now return to where the two westbound arrows were and use the northern one.
Take the eastbound arrow below it to leave the maze. Take the upbound staircase
now.

Upon leaving the stairwell, go west and beat up the Rocket, as well as the one
to his north. Go west of there to find a Hyper Potion, a spectacular item that
heals 200 HP. Go downstairs and back to the maze area. West of the stairs, you
can find a shortcut you can use with the northbound arrows to return to the
beginning. Go down the unused stairs.

Go south and beat up the Rocket, then go along the path below the grunt to find
TM10 (Double-Edge), which teaches a powerful Normal-type move that, however,
will slightly damage the user. Go west of the staircase now to find another
maze. A-maze-ing, no?  *shot*

Anyways, go along the path to the south and use the southbound arrow to reach a
Rare Candy. Then use the northbound arrow, then go north and around the west
wall. At the west/east arrows, go on the western one and then south to where
you'll find four eastbound arrows. Take the second one from the bottom to find
a Rocket.

Kick the crap out of him, then go south and right around the wall. You'll find
another staircase going down. Use it.

Go west to find an HP Up, then go north along the hall and into the room on the
left to find another conveniently-weak Rocket. After winning the battle, you'll
then watch him drop the Lift Key. Awesome. Go to the other side of the table
and grab the TM02 (Razor Wind). Return to the previously-unusable elevator to
find that, lo and behold, the Rockets use working, authentic Lift Keys.

(If you forgot how to get there, go back up the stairs you recently used. Use
the nortbound arrows you find to the west, then go upstairs again. Navigate
this arrow-tile maze as before, then you'll be able to find the elevator.)

Opt to go to B4F. There, go north and you'll find the familiar antagonists...

|  Ekans and Koffing are both weak to Ground and Psychic.                     |
|                                                                             |

|  Recommendations: Little to say as far as differences from the previous     |
|  fight go, honestly. Smog is Poison-type from Koffing, and Bite (Dark) and  |
|  Poison Sting (Poison) come from Ekans. Meowth also uses Bite. That sums up |
|  their offensve. Ground-types would be preferable over your Psychics, but   |
|  you could go the anime route and Thunderbolt them to death. :)             |

After sending Jessie and James blasting off again, go north through the open
doorr and, very unsurprisingly, you'll come face-to-face with the supreme
overlord of Team Rocket, Giovanni. He's not exactly happy to meet you, and that
feeling is supposedly mutual.

Well, violence always solves everything in Pokémon; why not here?

Next up is the Pokémon Gym. Head on over to the Pokémon Center, heal your
party, and bring along your Cut user. Head to the south-central part of the
city. Cut down the small tree nearby and go along the path to find the Celadon
City Gym.

Okay, heal up at the Pokémon Center, as per usual. Next up, try to exit Celadon
heading west to find another half-ton Snorlax blocking a path. Cut down the
nearby Cut tree. Beyond it is a quick two battles (against a Rapidash and
Ninetales, each Lv. 29 and of the Fire type). Continue west to find a house and
a girl inside said house. Speak with the girl to get HM02, Fly. Fly, in-battle,
is a high-power, two-turn, Flying-type move that has the user fly up high on
the first turn, avoiding *most* damage to deal heavy damage the next turn. Out
of battle, you can use it to Fly to any previously-visited area.

How about Lavender Town?

What a Gastly Trainer -- no, I mean GHASTLY Trainer list. But, yeah, catch a
Gastly or Haunter: Ghosts are weak to Ghost moves, which is one of many Pokémon
oddities. (For example, as of Black/White, only one Pokémon is pure Flying
type.)

Go upstairs to 2F and you'll find your rival. Time for a battle! Note that his
parties will change depending on whether you beat him the previous two times or
not.

|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After defeating your rival, he'll speak of how he found a Cubone in Pokémon
Tower, yet he cannot find a Marowak here, the evolved form of Cubone.

Head on up to the third, foggy floor. Go to the northern part of the room,
battle the Channeler, then grab the Escape Rope. Go south and defeat another
Channeler, with another to her north. Go upstairs.

Go west, battle a Channeler, then grab the Elixer and the Awakening. Go south
of the previous Channeler and battle another one, then go further south and
grab the HP Up. Go northwest and defeat one more Channeler, then go west and
upstairs.

On this floor, go east and north and defeat the Channeler, then go southeast
for another. Go west and speak with that Channeler. While not possessed like
the others, she'll show you the porto-Pokémon Center: the white squares. It
will fully heal your Pokémon's HP, PP, and status.

Then go west and de-possess that Channeler. Head south afterwards and grab that
golden Nugget. Further south is one more Channeler. Get rid of the crazy
spirits that are possessing her. Then go east and north to the stairs and head
on up.

Go west and defeat the Channeler there, then go west south to find an
X Accuracy. Go north to find another Channeler. Go around to the west and
de-possess that last Channeler. (You know, I honestly have to wonder how many
actually were possessed and how many were just high from the incense and stuff
that's probably burning in there.)

Go southwest and grab up that Rare Candy, then go southeast to find some
stairs. Go along to find the ghosty version of the Marowak Team Rocket so
cruelly murdered. You'll battle it. Because it is a ghost, you cannot catch it.
However, it still remains of the Ground type, and is therefore weak to Ice,
Grass, and Water; advantageous over Fire, Rock, and Electric; and immune to
Electric.

Continue up to the next floor. There, it's time to beat up Jessie and James
again.

|  Poison Sting (Poison) come from Arbok. Meowth also uses Bite. That sums up |
|  their offensve. Ground-types would be preferable over your Psychics, but   |

Once you've left the Tower, speaking with Mr. Fuji will net you the Poké
Flute. This magnificent item acts much like a never-ending Awakening; use it
to wake up Sleeping Pokémon in battle and you'll never lose the Flute. Also,
you'll be able to go to wake up the sleeping Snorlaxes on a few Routes.

Okay, heal up at the Pokémon Center.

You have two choices of how to do this. You can...

-- ...wake up the Snorlax near Celadon and take the Cycling Road and Routes
  16 through 18 (same thing) to Fuchsia. It is quite faster, though you'll
  need the Bicycle, unless you feel like using a glitch. See section five
  for further details.

-- ...wake up the Snorlax on Route 11 and take the Silence Bridge (which is
  Routes 12 through 15) to Fuchsia. It is slower, but provides more wild
  Pokémon, Trainers, EXP., and items.

-- ...do both of the above, which I recommend.

I am going to document both of the quests. I will divide them somewhat. The
Cycling Road option comes first. For your convenience, I'll add some CTRL+F
tags to where you'll want to go.

Try to exit Celadon heading west. You'll find Snorlax. "Speak" to it to be
prompted to use the Poké Flute. Do so and you will end up battling Snorlax.

Snorlax is a Lv. 30 Normal-type Pokémon. It can use Rest (self-heal + Sleep),
Snore (attack while sleeping), and some other moves. It has high Special
Defense, too.

After the battle, go west of Snorlax's old location and go inside of the
nearby building. Be sure you get your Bicycle and go into the gate. Leave the
guard house and you should be on Cycling Road.

*thinks of the S.S. Anne*

Beat up the Trainers at the top of the Cycling Road, then start heading down
the slope. On the right, you'll find some grass and some more Trainers further
down, with another to their west.

Further down is a fork. Go along to the left for three Trainers, then come back
up and go down the right parh for some more. Once they converge, defeat another
Trainer. Continue down and get off the slope.

Go east into the building and you'll be able to get off your bike. Go up the
stairs and you can have a trade: if you hand over Tangela, you'll receive
Parasect. It's a low-quality trade, given that it isn't very hard to level a
Paras up a few levels, and Tangela are relatively rarer.

Once outside the building, go southeast to find a bit of grass with some more
Trainers. Defeat the Bird Keeper trio and head east to find Fuschia, or fly to
Lavender to go along the Silence Bridge.

|                                                                           |
|  I use the term "Silence Bridge" as the collective term for Routes 12     |
|  through 15. Not all Pokémon listed are in every Route along it. The      |
|  Trainers are still listed as I name them in the walkthrough; I'm just    |
|  not Route-specific. I apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.   |
|                                                                           |
O===========================================================================O

Continue southward along the Route for a while. You'll fight four Trainers as
you continue southward to the Snorlax. When you "speak" to it, you'll be
prompted to use it and thereby wake it up. Do so.

Snorlax is a Lv. 30 Normal-type Pokémon. It can use Rest (self-heal + Sleep),
Snore (attack while sleeping), and some other moves. It has high Special
Defense, too.

Continue along the Route to find a house. Go inside and speak with the man
inside to receive the Super Rod. Quite useful for fishing (unlike the Old Rod).
Leave the house and go south and you'll notice some woody area to the west. Use
Cut to get in there; defeat the Fisherman and grab the Iron.

Go southeast of the bushes to find a Jr. Trainer. Then go south and Cut into
the patch of grass nearby, if you want. Keep going south and you'll soon meet a
female Jr. Trainer, then continue south for a Bird Keeper and another
Jr. Trainer.

Go west from the sign mentioning Silence Bridge and examine the space right of
the sign behind the barrier to find a Calcium. Continue along the linear path
for a bit. Your fifth battle should be versus a Bird Keeper with four Lv. 26
birds. Go west and you'll find a PP Up in the space between the barriers.

After another five battles, the last three of which are Bird Keepers, you
should be technically at the end of Silence Bridge. Go south for another Bird
Keeper. Go south for two more battles, then go west and Cut down the tree to
find some Bikers.

If you Cut down the tree below the northern grass, you'll be able to skip a
few Trainers, except one Jr. Trainer with a Lv. 33 Clefairy. You'll also be
getting TM20 (Rage) this way. Of course, defeat the remaining eleven Trainers,
too.

Once you're done, go west into Fuchsia City.

Upon arriving, head on over to the Pokémon Center. It is on the western side of
town, kind of off of the path. Heal up there.

Next, go around the Pokémon Center to find a Move Deleter. This person will
(for free) delete any move (be it level-learned, TM, or HM) from the Pokémon's
current moveset.

Go east to find another few houses. One is the residence of the Safari Warden,
who seems to have lost his (golden) false teeth. The other house is one in
which you get the Good Rod by speaking with the man inside.

Okay, now find the sign for Fuchsia City. See the light grass path? Go along it
and you soon will find the PokéMart. Visit there if you wish. Continue along
the path and you will soon come by the Safari Zone. Come with $500 - you are
required to go here.

A bit on the Safari Zone, first. The Safari Zone, much like similar locations
in most of the other games, allows you to catch certain Pokémon that sometimes
cannot be found elsewhere (without trading). The system is like this: when you
get into a battle, you can either try to catch, throw a rock, or throw some
bait. The first allows you to try to catch the opponent using a Safari Ball,
which you obtain 30 of per trip. The second increases the catch rate and also
makes it likely for the opponent to leave. The third decreases the catch and
run-away rates. You do not use your own Pokémon. You can save in here, unlike
with FireRed/LeafGreen, which is vulnerable to one of the many glitches.

Okay, let's pay our $500 and enter. Go out to the north.

In the Safari Zone, go northeast to the Center Area.

There, go upstairs to the east and grab the Carbos found to the north. Go to
the main square area to find TM37 (Egg Bomb) on a bridge in the water, then go
the northwestern corner of the main square to find a Max Potion. Go northeast
to the Rest House and grab the nearby Full Restore. Go northwest from there and
then west to Area 2.

Here, go west and along the winding route to find a few water pools. Go around
and up the northern trees; you'll get a Protein and TM40 (Skull Bash) as you
do. Continue to the northwest corner of the Area, then go south on the west
side of the pools.

Boom! Area 3. Nearby are the Warden's Gold Teeth. Go west to find TM32 (Double
Team), and go into the "secret" house. Within, you'll be given HM03. HM03 will
teach the VERY necessary move known as Surf, which allows you to tread water
out of battle. In battle, it is a very powerful Water-type move. You can't
tread water, though, until you beat the next Gym.

Do want you want now. Return to Fuchsia when you're ready.

Remember where the Warden's house was? Go there and hand him his Gold Teeth
to obtain HM04, Strength. Strength is an 80-Power Normal-type move. Not
exactly the best move, but still good. (Better than Flash!) Teach it to someone
and move the rock nearby using it to obtain a Rare Candy.

Heal up your team and head to the Pokémon Gym.

This particular Gym seems to be extremely linear... *bump* Or is it? There are
invisible walls in this Gym. You'll notice them by looking at the floor and
seeing the lightly-colored dots in the tile's four corners. Start from the
left and work around in a spiral.

Before you work on Trainer number seven (the Leader), you will definitely want
to go and grab some Antidotes (or Full Heals) and a Psychic Pokémon. Speak to
the last Trainer when ready.

|  All of the Pokemon have the same weaknesses: Fire, Flying, Rock, and       |
|  Psychic. Each Pokemon knows Toxic, which causes Poisoning that will        |
|  increase in damage, and Psychic. Other than that, their moves are          |
|  unexceptional.                                                             |

|  Recommendations: Kadabra/Alakazam/Graveler/Golem/Sandslash/etc. at Lv. 48+ |
|  for the type advantage. If that's not possible, you'll find that, since    |
|  most of these attacks are either Poison or Normal, Ghosts and non-Grass    |
|  Pokémon are great alternates.                                              |

For winning, you'll be given your fifth badge, the Soulbadge. You also get
TM06, Toxic, and the ability to Surf outside of battle.

Okay, we're going to go find us one of the three legendary bird Pokémon. (Well,
five by Gold/Silver's release, but whatever.) This one is the Electric/Flying
type Zapdos. You will want a Pokémon that can deal statuses: Paralysis is very
preferable, though Sleep is okay, too. You'll want to bring along some Ultra
Balls from Celadon.

Anyways, exit east onto Route 9.

Go along the Route to the patch of grass north of the Pokémon Center and go
into the grass. North of there should be a river. Get on it while Surfing, then
go along for a while to eventually reach land.

Go west and beat up the Pokémaniac, then continue into the Power Plant. Bzzzt!

Go north from the entrance and then east to snatch a Carbos. Go along the curve
southward and, to the right, you'll notice an item ball. This is actually a
Voltorb, so fight! Go east to find a dead end with a Voltorb and Electrode;
examine the wall next to the Electrode's (old) location to find a Max Elixer.

Go back to the middle southbound path and ride it to the far south. To the
west, you'll find TM33 (Reflect); east, you'll find a Voltorb. Go east along
the unused path and you'll find two more Voltorb.

Once you see the north-south crack in the wall, go west and grab TM25 (Thunder)
and east to find a Voltorb. Continue east to the wall, then go north along it;
you'll find a PP Up and a Rare Candy in a room eventually.

Return to the main hall and go up and down the wall. The item ball you'll soon
reach is another Electrode. Go up the path and examine the eastern wall crack
to find a useful PP Up. Go west and south to find Zapdos. Save and engage it in
battle!

|  Special Encounter: Zapdos  \
|______________________________\______________________________________________
|  Type : Electric/Flying.                                                    |
|  Level: Level 50.                                                           |
|  Moves: - Drill Peck                                                        |
|         - Detect                                                            |
|         - Agility                                                           |
|         - Thunder Wave                                                      |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Zapdos is weak to Ice and Rock. It is immune to Ground. It will resist     |
|  Grass, Flying, Fighting, and Bug types. It's Drill Peck move will deal     |
|  extra damage to Fighting, Bug, and Grass Pokémon. That is its only move    |
|  that deals damage; Agility boosts Speed, Detect makes an attack miss, and  |
|  Thunder Wave paralyzes.                                                    |
|                                                                             |
|  There are a few ways to go about this. The main way would be simply to     |
|  lower Zapdos's HP as much as possible, then bring about a non-damaging     |
|  status, such as Paralysis or Sleep. Shoot out an Ultra Ball afterwards.    |
|  That is all you CAN do. The only thing that could make it better would be  |
|  using False Swipe, but that is not in this game, sadly.                    |

Okay, I think we're done with sidequesting. Exit the Power Plant however you
will, then Fly to Vermilion.

Continue northward to the Saffron City gatehouse. As you try to go in, the
guard will snatch your Fresh Water/Soda Pop/Lemonade from your bag, drink some
of it, then magically bring it instantly to the other three guards without even
thinking of repayment.

Well, anyways, you'll be allowed to freely go into or out of Saffron.

Okay, head to the southwestern corner of the city (west of you, if you came
from Vermilion) to find the Pokémon Center. Use it.

Go east of there to Mr. Psychic's house. Speak with the man inside to get TM29,
which teaches Psychic.

Continue east and circle around to find Silph Co. There will be a Rocket grunt
sleeping on the job once you beat Koga. (Yeah, if you couldn't figure it out
yet, you could have come here BEFORE going to Fuchsia. That'd be too much
Flying around, though.) Ignore it for now.

I think the Fighting Dojo and the Saffron City Gym are in the northeast corner
of the city. Go on in to the former.

For the record, all of the Pokémon in this Gym are of the Fighting type. These
Pokémon therefore...

-- ...are weak to Flying and Psychic.
-- ...have type-based advantages over Rock, Normal, and Ice.
-- ...resist Bug and Rock.
-- ...have no immunities based on type.

After defeating the fifth and final Trainer, you'll be allowed to get either a
Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan, both Fighting types. The former has higher Attack, but
lacks real move-type variety. The latter has a diverse move-type learnset, but
lacks the Special Attack to support it. Your choice.

Exit.

^^
More than thirty battles up there. I hope you're ready.

<== 5F ==>

Use the elevator to reach 5F. Go southwest and along the narrow hall to find a
Rocket grunt near a square thingy. That thingy will make you real lost real
fast. FOLLOW THIS FAQ; LEAVE THOSE "THINGIES" ALONE. Beat up this Rocket and
use the teleporter, then reuse. Go along the eastbound corridor to find the
Card Key. That will let you in all rooms of the building.

By technicality, you could go to 3F and beat up Giovanni again. But I'm gonna
make you work for that info... Ah, crap. Well, do this stuff anyways. It's good
EXP. and items and money. We'll work our way up from 2F.

<== 2F ==>

Go below the stairs to find a Rocket, then go southwest to find another one
between two tables. Go into the room east of here and beat up the Scientist.
There are two rooms to the west. Use the northern one to find a girl who will
hand over TM36 (Self-Destruct); the southern one yields a Scientist battle.

Use the stairs to reach 3F.

<== 3F ==>

Go along the middle corridor and beat up the Rocket, then unlock the two doors
to the west. Defeat the Rocket Scientist (see what I did there?) and go
northeast to find a Hyper Potion.

Go on up to 4F.

<== 4F ==>

Go south and slay the Rocket in battle, then use the tiny hall in the middle of
the room. Go west to another Rocket grunt, then go through the northern door to
find another Scientist. Baffle his intelligent mind with your mighty power.

Open the final door in this floor to find a minor wealth of minor items: Full
Heal, Escape Rope, and a Max Revive. Okay, that last one isn't very minor! Go
upstairs to 5F again.

<== 5F ==>

Beat the Rocket to the east, then beat up the Juggler in the big room nearby.
Examine the Pokémon Reports, for it might intrigue you, then go through the
door to the west to free someone. Go to the western bit of the area and defeat
another Rocket Scientist.

Unlock the door to the west to find some Protein, then go up to 6F.

<== 6F ==>

Defeat the Rocket to the south, then go west of there and unlock the door to
find another couple of items: X Accuracy and HP Up. Then beat up the
Super-Duper-Mega Nerd ... erm, I mean Scientist ... to the north. (Yes, I'm
running out of creative sayings here.) Then go up to 7F.

<== 7F ==>

Beat up the nearby Rocket, then open the southeastern room to find TM03 (Swords
Dance). The next door allows another fight. After that one, go along the small
hallway in the middle of the room and you'll eventually find some Calcium and
some guy you don't know but obviously want to kick the crap out of and I can't
think of a reason why not to so do it.  *whew!*

After beating that Scientist, go back around to the elevator and beat the
Rocket west of there, then use the door to the south to free up some Silph
employees. (Or not. No one cares.) Head up to 8F when you're done.

<== 8F ==>

Go east and beat the Rocket until he blasts off, then go down the middle
corridor and get rid of this Rocket. Go up the room to the left to find another
Scientist. Unlock the door to the left to find another Silph employee -- or,
again, don't do it because it creates minor humor. Go up to 9F.

<== 9F ==>

Go through the two southern doors to find a Scientist. Baffle his mind, like
usual, then go to the other side of the room and rocket defeat down the Team
Rocket grunt's throat. Go into the room to the west to find a nurse who will
freely heal your party. Which you REALLY needed by now. After all, I'm so very
sure a Lv. 50 Zapdos has SO much trouble electrocuting bad guys left and right,
and not to mention that a Lv. 128 'M probably scares the living crap out of
them and there's no need for PP by the time they run to their mothers.  :P

Random references aside, enjoy your rest and go north and through the door.
Get your Pokémon back in gear by metaphorically killing the Rocket. Then go up
to 10F.

<== 10F ==>

That's a Scientist in your face, no? Don't they make about $100,000+ yearly?
Steal his cash -- $1,450, which is actually close to average weekly earnings --
and unlock the southern door if you feel that Silph employees shouldn't be
locked up for being unable to use Pokémon at a skill equal to ours; had they,
we wouldn't be doing all of this work for 'em.

Anyhow, go southwest and beat up the weakling Rocket and snatch up the three
items: Carbos, Rare Candy, and TM26 (Earthquake)! Awesome! Earthquake is very
easily one of the most powerful moves out there - it is of the Ground type and
has a high enough Accuracy to almost guarantee a hit on non-Flying Pokémon.

<== 11F ==>

Go southeast and beat up the Rocket. In the nearby room, you can see the Silph
Co. president, alongside Giovanni. Well, we can't let this injustice pass. Take
the elevator down to 1F and heal outside at the Pokémon Center, then go back to
3F via the elevator.

<== 3F ==>

Go west from where the Rocket is near the central table and you'll find a
teleporter. Use it.

.. And there, you'll find your rival. Couldn't he have bothered to eliminate
some of the grunts for us? >_<

As before, his parties depend on whether you've beaten him before or not.

After the battle, your rival leaves. Continue along and speak to the man to
receive a Lv. 15 Lapras. Lapras is quite the rare Pokémon; it also a Water/Ice
type, meaning, if you've been following this FAQ and haven't traded, that this
is only the second (partially-) Ice-type you've seen, the first being about one
minute ago.

*ahem*  Take the bottom teleporter, and then go forward to finish the final
fight from Jessie and James.

|  Recommendations: Little to say as far as differences from the previous     |
|  fight go, honestly. Smog is Poison-type from Weezing, and Bite (Dark) and  |
|  Poison Sting (Poison) come from Arbok. Meowth also uses Bite. That sums up |
|  their offensve. Ground-types would be preferable over your Psychics, but   |
|  you could go the anime route with Pikachu and Thunderbolt them to death.   |
|  They still have the same attacks as twice before... Will they ever get     |
|  better?                                                                    |

Return to 9F for healing if needed, then open the door and let's beat u

And so, Team Rocket has left the building. Or blasted off again - whichever
you prefer.

Speak with the president to obtain the Master Ball. This is the rarest of rare
Pokéballs. This can catch any Pokémon 100% of the time. Only a few others can
do such things, and that's the importing procedures for Generations IV and V!

Anyhow, leave.

|  Each Pokemon is weak to Ghost and Bug. Abra is just a punching bag, only   |

|  with Kadabra also having Kinesis and Alakazam with Reflect. In short, all  |
|  damaging moves are of the Psychic type, only being super-effective to      |
|  Poison or Fighting types.                                                  |
|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: Your strongest Pokemon is probably Pikachu or one of the  |
|  starters, so I'd go there. If that isn't your strongest, go ahead and use  |
|  it so long as it isn't a Fighting or Poison type (except Haunter and       |
|  Gengar). Ghost-types make nice back-up. Level should be about 50 by now.   |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

Once you defeat Sabrina, you'll obtain the Marshbadge, TM46 (Psywave), and
the ability to Rock Smash rocks out of battles.

Why the MARSHbadge for a Psychic Gym only really near grassy routes? If
anything, Fuschia is more suited for a marshy environment. And, in fact,
wouldn't SOULbadge make more sense in a Psychic Gym anyways?

Whatever; I don't know Nintendo logic.

Heal up at the Pokémon Center.

Okay, we have a problem. There are two ways of getting to our next destination,
Cinnabar Island.

-- The first, Route 21, is short and simple.
-- The second, which goes south from Fuchsia, then west across the Seafoam
  Islands, is much longer. However, it provides you with more items, EXP., and
  Articuno!

I'll cover the Route 21 method first. Like with the Cycling Road/Silence Bridge
idea, there will be a few handy CTRL+F tags to use:

-- Going to Cinnabar Island via Route 21 ................. **POKEMON_47_R21**
-- Going to Cinnabar via the Seafoam Islands ............. **POKEMON_47_SFI**
-- Cinnabar Island ....................................... **POKEMON_47_CBI**

Heal up at your mom's house if you need to. Then begin to Surf on the water to
the south, on Route 21.

Head south and jump the ledges. Finish off the two land Trainers, then Surf
onto the water.

This part of the Route is quite simple. Just Surf south, then west, to get to
the Seafoam Islands. Twelve battles based on Trainers lie on the way.

When you reach land, defeat the Swimmer outside of the cave. Then enter.

When you enter, go east and push the Strength boulder into the hole nearby,
then go down after it. Do this two more times with that Strength boulder to
hit some underground water river. It is a fast-flowing river; you can't stop it
and move forward until three boulders lock it. There are two currents here, as
well: one blocking the exit, and the other blocking Articuno.

Southeast, in the only land tile, you'll find a Ultra Ball. Grab it and Surf
back to where you'll reach land, then go west and south, then up the ladder.
Here, take the ladder to the south up a floor and examine the rock to the east
to find a Nugget.

Go back to the previous floor and go around the land to find a few Strength
boulders. Examine the standalone rock nearby for a Max Elixer. Now, push the
easternmost boulder to the far north, then the one next to it one tile west
and one tile south.

Go around the hole and push the other boulder to the far west, then push both
boulders into their holes. Jump down one hole and you'll find a blocked
current. Surf north to the island and you'll find the Legendary Frost Bird,
Articuno. Save and engage it in battle!
_______________________________
|  Special Encounter: Articuno  \
|________________________________\____________________________________________
|  Type : Ice/Flying.                                                         |
|  Level: Level 50.                                                           |
|  Moves: - Mist                                                              |
|         - Mind Reader                                                       |
|         - Agility                                                           |
|         - Ice Beam                                                          |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Articuno is weak to Fire, Rock (4x), and Electric-typed moves. Its typing  |
|  makes it immune to Ground, and have advantages (with Ice Beam) over the    |
|  Grass, Ground, and Flying types.                                           |
|                                                                             |
|  There are a few ways to go about this. The main way would be simply to     |
|  lower Articuno's HP as much as possible, then bring about a non-damaging   |
|  status, such as Paralysis or Sleep. Shoot out an Ultra Ball afterwards.    |
|  That is all you CAN do. The only thing that could make it better would be  |
|  using False Swipe, which is not in this game. Don't use the Master Ball,   |
|  though. That's for something else...                                       |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, go to the southern land and use the ladder, then go south and
use another ladder, then go northeast and use another, then go southwest and
around to another, then east to find a boulder. Push the boulder into the hole
like you did at the start to block the current, then go east onto the land. Go
up the ladders to leave.

Ahhh... daylight...

..It burns!

Well, when you exit, sail west and deal with six battles. It is a linear path
to Cinnabar from here.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                  YOU SHOULD BE AT CINNABAR ISLAND BY NOW   **POKEMON_47_CBI**
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So, I guess I can assume you ARE at Cinnabar by now? No? Too bad.

Welcome to this small city, located on what is apparently a volcanic island.
Not much to do here, but we'll get around to it all pretty fast. Check out the
PokéMart if you want. Heal up at the Pokémon Center, and go into the building
to the left of the Pokémon Center, the Pokémon Lab.

When you enter, the first room on the right has a Rhydon that'll be given to
you for a Golduck. The woman across from him will give you Dewgong for your
Growlithe. The former trade is good, and the latter is okay if you've got two
Fire-types by now.

In the second room, the scientist hands over TM35 (Metronome). The third room
has a Seel he'll give you for Ponyta, which you probably haven't even SEEN yet.
(And you can find Seel in the Seaform Islands.) You'll also find the
Resurrection Machine. You can give the doctor your Dome Fossil, Helix Fossil,
or Old Amber to receive a Lv. 5 Kabuto, Omanyte, or Aerodactyl (respectively)
later on.

Next stop is the Pokémon Mansion, which I think is in the northwestern portion
of Cinnabar. Ground is a key type to make wild battles easier by far.

When you enter, go north and northeast past the first staircase to find an
Escape Rope. Go into the small room to the west and you'll find a statue, which
actually functions as a switch. They are found throughout the Pokémon Mansion
and open and close the doors, though only for your current floor.

Go up to the second floor and beat the Trainer to the south (you'll need to
speak with him). Use the stairs next to the other stairs and go up to find a
Burglar to the north.

There are two paths in this room. Examine the dead end of the top one to find a
useful Max Revive, and go along the other one to find an also-useful Max
Potion. Return to the previous floor.

Go to the eastern portion of the room to find a Calcium. Go up the stairs in
the room north of the other two stairwells.

Go to the east to find an Iron in another room. Go back and use the statue
switch, then go through the southern door. Beat up the Scientist and you'll
note the two ledges nearby. Use the western one.

Upon landing, defeat the nearby Scientist and go between the plants to grab a
Carbos. Use the downbound staircase, then go north and into the room on the
left. Defeat the Burglar within and get the nearby TM14 (Blizzard), which is a
decent move for Articuno, though it doesn't replace Ice Beam's similar power
and greater accuracy.

Trigger the statue switch nearby and leave the room to the west. Get the Full
Restore on the west wall and go back to the right side of the room, then north
through the door. Defeat the Scientist to the north, then trigger the switch in
the next room to the north.

Go into the room on the left and snatch the Rare Candy, then go left and grab
TM22 (Solarbeam) from the table. Go south to find the Secret Key, which is
required to open the doors on the Cinnabar Island's Gym. To exit, use an
Escape Rope, Teleport, or return to the Blizzard TM's room and flip the switch
there. Go upstairs and north to the exit.

|             SUMMARIZATION OF THE POKEMON MANSION DIARY ENTRIES              |
|                                                                             |
|  At various places in the Pokémon Mansion, you could have found a few paper |
|  fragments at tables, had you opened the proper doors. I didn't guide you   |
|  to most of them, mainly because I could summarize it here in a more        |
|  coherent and informative manner.                                           |
|                                                                             |
|  Okay, so here's how it is. Some Pokémon Scientists, apparently from the    |
|  Kanto region (which is a place in Japan, FYI), traveled to South America.  |
|  There, they found a new species of Pokémon, one that is now believed to be |
|  one of the ancestors of all Pokémon due to the ability it has to learn any |
|  move. This Pokémon became known as Mew.                                    |
|                                                                             |
|  Now, as we know, Pokémon reproduce using Eggs, correct? Well, these idiots |
|  decided to SOMEHOW IMPREGNATE Mew. Amazingly enough, it all works, and Mew |
|  becomes the first Pokémon to give live birth. The child became known as    |
|  Mewtwo. Something went wrong with Mewtwo - I think because they did some   |
|  experiments on it - and Mewtwo became extremely violent, yet also very     |
|  powerful. It escaped the lab and, from then on, has failed to fully trust  |
|  humans. Mewtwo has, unknown to all, moved to Cerulean Cave.                |
|                                                                             |
O=============================================================================O

Anyhow, leave the Mansion.

This Gym is a Fire-type training Gym. EVERY SINGLE POKEMON here is of the Fire
type - that is no lie. Remember, Water Pokémon are the best, as they resist
Fire while having a type-based advantage.

In the northwestern corner of each room you come into, you'll find a quiz
machine. You'll be given a question. You'll give an answer. If it is correct,
you will be allowed forward (you still can battle the Trainer); if it is
incorrect, you'll battle and THEN the door opens.

Anyhow, here we go with the Q&A. Beware that I simply copy-and-pasted the
question and other data from my FireRed/LeafGreen FAQ, because I was using a
Japanese Green Version at the time and can't read Japanese very well. However,
the responses (Answers) are indeed correct for the question number.

O=============================================================================O
|  Question #1: Does Caterpie evolve into Metapod?                            |
|  Answer     : Yes.                                                          |
|  Why?       : Have you ever leveled Caterpie to Lv. 7?                      |
O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O
|  Question #2: There are nine certified Pokémon League Badges?               |
|  Answer     : No.                                                           |
|  Why?       : Depends on how you look at it. If you look at it solely from  |
|               a Kanto viewpoint, there are eight, not nine. If you look at  |
|               from the series-wide viewpoint, there are 40 badges as of the |
|               release of Pokémon Black/White.                               |
O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O
|  Question #3: Poliwag evolves three times?                                  |
|  Answer     : No.                                                           |
|  Why?       : Poliwag will evolve into Poliwhirl, which is one evolution.   |
|               Poliwhirl then evolves into Poliwrath or Politoed, but only   |
|               one of them. Therefore, it evolves two times (maximum).       |
O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O
|  Question #4: Are Electric moves effective against Ground-type Pokémon?     |
|  Answer     : No.                                                           |
|  Why?       : Firstly, only Grass, Ice, and Water do super-effective damage |
|               to Ground Pokémon. Secondly, if you look at it from a more    |
|               scientific viewpoint, electricity from lightning is somewhat  |
|               absorbed into the ground, with the rest making fire and stuff.|
O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O
|  Question #5: Pokémon of the same kind (species) and level are not          |
|               identical?                                                    |
|  Answer     : Yes. (In most cases!)                                         |
|  Why?       : There are factors that you cannot control - Effort Values,    |
|               Individual Values, and natures - that affect stats and even   |
|               the Pokémon's (non-) Shiny status. Then there is the moveset  |
|               and contest stats. Then there is the EXP. gain based on the   |
|               trading thing. Then some Pokémon of the species can have      |
|               different forms (ie. Unown). The odds are astronomical that   |
|               any two non-Event Pokémon would be COMPLETELY IDENTICAL.      |
O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O
|  Question #6: TM28 contains Tombstony?                                      |
|  Answer     : No.                                                           |
|  Why?       : Remember, back around the second badge, when you could have   |
|               obtained the Dig TM, TM28?                                    |
O=============================================================================O

Exit, heal, and return to the Gym. Speak with Blaine to begin!
___________________________
|  BOSS: Gym Leader Blaine  \
|____________________________\________________________________________________
|  Pokémon: Ninetales (Lv. 48) Fire                                           |
|           Rapidash (Lv. 50) Fire                                            |
|           Arcanine (Lv. 54) Fire                                            |
|                                                                             |
|  Money Earned: $5,346                                                       |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Each of Blaine's Pokémon are weak to Water, Rock, and Ground. They each    |
|  resist Grass, Ice, and Bug types. They have a type-based advantage over    |
|  those three as well. Each Pokémon knows some type of Fire-type move --     |
|  Flamethrower, Fire Blast, or Fire Spin -- and that's their only Fire-type  |
|  move, except with Arcanine, who has both Flamethrower and Fire Blast.      |
|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: Any Water or Rock type will be excellent (at Lv. 52+) as  |
|  Fire deals half-damage to them (1/4-damage on Omastar/Kabutops). Your Surf |
|  Pokémon would be key for this battle, too. Just do your best, I guess.     |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After this battle, you'll be given the Volcanobadge and TM38 (Fire Blast). Fire
Blast is an excellent Fire-type move of a power equal to that of Thunder,
Blizzard, and Hydro Pump. It also has the highest accuracy (~85%) of these. It
will make an excellent addition to your Charizard or Moltres; you'll be getting
the latter in Victory Road.

Seven down, one to go!

So, the eighth Gym Leader has finally come back, but who is he? You'll have to
find out by getting to him using the arrows, and if that isn't a big enough
hint, proceed to let Hitmonlee repeatedly kick your groin. The type focusing of
this Gym is probably meant to be Ground; however, it's actually fairly
unpredictable, especially in Gold/Silver and their remakes. Varied teams are an
absolute must; your main party's levels should be around Lv. 50.

Use the leftbound arrow tile to find a Tamer. Beat him and and use the arrow
tile to the west to go up and beat up a Blackbelt. Go around the wall to the
right to find another fight.

Then go south and east to find the middle bit of the Gym. You can skip the
three trainers here, but why would you? Go east to find a Revive, then go
north and beat the Cooltrainer. Go west and beat the Blackbelt.

Go back to the entrance and go north along the east wall to the northeastern
corner of the Gym. Go west and you'll find the leader of the Viridian Gym.

|                                                                             |
|  Money Earned: $5,445                                                       |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Dugtrio is weak to Grass, Water, and Ice. It is immune to Electric.        |
|                                                                             |
|  Persian is weak to Fighting and immune to Ghost.                           |
|                                                                             |
|  Rhydon is weak to Grass (4x), Water (4x), Fighting, and Ice-type moves.    |
|  They are immune to Electric.                                               |
|                                                                             |
|  Nidoqueen and Nidoking are weak to Psychic, Ground, Water, and Ice. They   |
|  are immune to Electric.                                                    |
|                                                                             |
|  Recommendations: Here, you'll find that Articuno will your best bet by far |
|  for this battle by bringing along a Ground immunity from Earthquake and    |
|  Fissure and some decent Ice moves. Nidoking and Nidoqueen will probably be |
|  a problem for Articuno, though, if it doesn't one-hit-kill with Blizzard   |
|  because of the potential for Thunder. Pokemon such as Kadabra, Alakazam,   |
|  Graveler, and Golem are better suited for them. All Pokemon should be      |
|  Lv. 55+ by now.                                                            |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, you'll get the eighth and last Kanto Gym Badge, the
Earthbadge. You also get TM27, Fissure, which is a one-hit kill move that will
not be likely to hit; it's pretty much worthless.

Speak to Giovanni after the battle and he'll vanish, never to be seen again
for another two years (in-game; in real life, it's more like fifteen) in the
games of HeartGold/SoulSilver as part of a Celebi event.

last quest for fame and glory across the Pokémon world.

The path is actually pretty linear. Head north once you pass the initial
building.

Once you show off the Soulbadge, you'll need to start Surfing for a bit.

Continue on into the final trial before the Pokémon League - Victory Road -
after you show off your Earthbadge.

*cheers*  Congratulations, you have found Victory Road. One more trial stands
before you and the four elite Trainers of the Elite Four and the mysterious,
unnamed Champion. You should be well prepared for this journey, for the Pokémon
here are of a decent power, and even Moltres is found here!

<== 1F ==>

Once you enter, push the nearby Strength boulder one tile south, to the east
wall, two tiles north, east to the wall, north two tiles, east one, and south
one. Go back west and walk on the newly-opened path to the intersection. There,
go east and along the path north. You'll find TM43 (Sky Attack) on the right,
and a Rare Candy on the left. Note that you will obviously need to exit and
re-enter to grab a second item.

Return to the intersection and go west. Defeat the first of eleven tough
Trainers, then go past and north to find another one. Go up the ladder nearby
to reach 2F.

<== 2F ==>

Go south and push the Strength boulder south once, west once, south once, and
west once to get it on the switch. Get onto the raised ledge and beat the
Blackbelt there, then continue along east to find a Juggler. Get off of the
platformer and go east.

At the wall, head north and west to find a Tamer. Grab the nearby Full Heal
after the battle, then go up and around the rock to find another Juggler. Get
the nearby TM17 (Submission). Go back to the other side of the rock and use the
nearby ladder to find 3F.

<== 3F ==>

Go northeast and beat the Cooltrainer, then grab the nearby Max Revive. Ignore
the Strength boulder and go to the northwest corner of the raised area and use
the ladder to go down.

<== 2F ==>

Beat the nearby Pokémaniac, then go east on the north wall to find a Guard
Spec. South of there, you'll find the Legendary Fire Bird, Moltres! Save and
engage in battle!
______________________________
|  Special Encounter: Moltres  \
|_______________________________\_____________________________________________
|  Type : Fire/Flying.                                                        |
|  Level: Level 50.                                                           |
|  Moves: - Endure                                                            |
|         - Fire Spin                                                         |
|         - Agility                                                           |
|         - Flamethrower                                                      |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Moltres is weak to Rock (4x), Water, and Electric. It is immune to Ground  |
|  moves. It resists Grass (1/4), Fighting, and Bug (1/4) typse. It has a     |
|  move-based advantage over Grass, Ice, and Bug types.                       |
|                                                                             |
|  There are a few ways to go about this. The main way would be simply to     |
|  lower Moltres's HP as much as possible, then bring about a non-damaging    |
|  status, such as Paralysis or Sleep. Shoot out an Ultra Ball afterwards.    |
|  That is all you CAN do. The only thing that could make it better would be  |
|  using False Swipe, really, but its not here. Don't use the Master Ball,    |
|  though. We have to save that for another Pokémon....                       |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|

After the battle, return upstairs.

<== 3F ==>

Go back to the right where the Strength boulder was. Push it north twice and
then west into the wall. Go south and snatch up TM47 (Explosion). Push the
Strength boulder south once, west four times, south thrice, and east once to
hit the switch. Return to the far right.

Get on the raised ledge and go along the newly-opened path. Defeat the
Cooltrainer, then go along the southwest path. Get off of the platform and
fight some Trainers to the east.

Now, go past them whilst hugging the southern wall to find a Strength boulder
near a hole. Push the boulder in there and follow it. Push it to the far left
onto the switch. Go north of there to find TM05 (Mega Punch). Get on the
raised ledge and head to the ladder. Use it and continue along to leave
Victory Road.

Continue north into the main building.

There, you'll find a Pokémon Center plus a PokéMart. Buy a bunch of Hyper
Potions and Full Restores and Revive. Now, we need to construct a team.

Each of the Elite Four will specialize in a type: Ice, Fighting, Ghost, and
Dragon. Henceforth, I give you this team. It works best at Lv. 55+.

~ Ninetales, Arcanine, or Moltres       (Fire-type)
~ Pidgeot or Fearow                     (Flying-type)
~ Haunter or Gengar                     (Ghost-type)
~ Lapras or Articuno                    (Water/Ice-type)
~ Zapdos or Pikachu                     (Electric-type)
~ Venusaur                              (Grass-type)

I WILL MAKE A LOT OF REFERENCES TO THIS TEAM IN THE RECOMMENDATIONS, BECAUSE I
AM QUITE SURE YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO GAIN THESE BY NOW. MODIFY YOUR SPECIFIC
STRATEGY AS NEEDED. And, yeah, I know those aren't their REAL types; that is
just another way to refer to them.

Proceed inside when you need to.

Okay, first up is Lorelei, the frosty first member of the Elite Four. (Although
is can be debated she is the Water/Ice-user - four are part-Ice, four are
part-Water.)

and bring you to the next room, thereby registering you into the Hall of Fame.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
           CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE BEATEN THE MAIN STORYLINE OF

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

Well, you've beaten one of the toughest Elite Fours Nintendo has ever created,
excluding re-fights. The credits will roll and "THE END" appears on-screen.

Your journey is far from over, though. I doubt you had much more than 100
Pokémon species seen OR caught. While this guide can't cover everything, I
will cover one final thing.

Mewtwo. Pokémon #150, just before Mew itself, oddly enough.

Fly to Cerulean City.

Surf west of the entrance and you'll soon come to a fork in the path. Go north
along it to find a Max Elixir. Go to the far west and use the ladder there to
reach the second floor.

Go along the northeastern path to find an Ultra Ball, then go along the
southeastern one to the fork. Go north to find a Max Revive and continue to
where both paths meet up. Go north of there and downstairs.

Here, Surf to the southeast to find a useful Rare Candy, then go back and grab
the Ultra Ball from the platformer. Go south and around to find another ladder;
head up to the next floor.

At the fork in this path, go north to find a Full Restore, then use the other
path to reach another ladder. Go southeast to find a Max Revive, then follow
the path to the west to find the maze again.

Go west and south to find a Rare Candy, then north to find the next ladder.
Use it and go along the twisty path to the fork. Go east to find the Max
Elixer, then head along the other path to meet up with some water. Go west
and grab the Ultra Ball and Max Revive, then Surf east.

You'll reach another twisting, turning path. At the northeast corner, you'll
find an Ultra Ball.

In the southeast corner, you'll find Mewtwo.
_____________________________
|  Special Encounter: Mewtwo  \
|______________________________\_____________________________________________
|  Type : Psychic.                                                           |
|  Level: Level 70.                                                          |
|  Moves: - Psychic                                                          |
|         - Swift                                                            |
|         - Recover                                                          |
|         - Safeguard                                                        |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  Mewtwo is weak to Ghost and Bug types. It resists Fighting, and maybe     |
|  Psychic. It lacks immunities. It can do super-effective damage to those   |
|  of the Fighting and Poison types with Psychic.                            |
|                                                                            |
|  There are a few ways to go about this. The main way would be simply to    |
|  lower Mewtwo's HP as much as possible, then bring about a non-damaging    |
|  status, such as Paralysis or Sleep. Shoot out an Ultra Ball afterwards.   |
|  That is all you CAN do. The only thing that could make it better would be |
|  using False Swipe, which is sadly not in this game.                       |
|                                                                            |
|  Of course, 'twas once a wise man who listened to another wise man's words |
|  and saved the Master Ball for this moment rather than relatively waste it |
|  on one of the legendary birds or, seemingly impossible, Magikarp.         |
|____________________________________________________________________________|

Well, that does it for the walkthrough. You have effectively explored each and
every normally-explorable area in the game.

Obviously, if you're playing only this version of the game, you have a slight
problem I can almost guarantee there is. Your Pokédex is not complete, nor will
it ever be. You'll need trading between games to complete it, and that includes
the super-lucky Mew trade. Or glitching. The glitches are interesting, and just
below here, but beware ... some strange, screwed-up things occur.

Well, all you can do now is build up a super-team, which is obsolete now... All
mainstream tournaments now take place on Black/White and other DS games, as of
2012 -- you can't bring any Pokémon from the GameBoy/GameBoy Color games to
them.

So, you pretty much just get to complete the Pokédex. It's not the most
glorious idea, but it is the only thing really left, unless you've got Gold,
Silver, or Crystal. No tournaments there, but it's a nice way to complete that
Pokédex.

Thanks for reading!

This section lists a fair amount of glitches in the games of Pokémon Red, Blue,
Green, and even Yellow Versions (the last one for my convenience). The majority
of them are simply copy-and-pasted from my Glitch Pokémon FAQ, found on several
sites, including GameFAQs.

Anyways, why do this? Well, firstly, the glitches in these games are perhaps
some of the most intriguing glitches ever found.

Secondly, you'll need some of them if you ever want a full Pokédex in this
day and time. (Keep in mind that this FAQ was written in 2012, far beyond the
time Nintendo stopped holding special Pokémon give-aways for these games.)

Also note that some of these make references to glitch Pokémon, such as
Missingno., 'M, and PC4SH. If you want further data on these Pokémon, I really
suggest looking at my Glitch Pokémon FAQ at GameFAQs, for I will not paste
everything here.

----------
Cut Glitch
----------

Compatible with:
- Glitch #1: Red, Blue, Yellow (and Gold, Silver, Crystal)
- Glitch #2: Red, Blue, Yellow

Glitch #1:
This more severe glitch of the two allows the player to get stuck on top of
a cuttable tree. This glitch is present in Generations I and II. In order to
perform the glitch, the player must have the Gym Badge allowing the use of
Cut (the Cascade Badge in Kanto; the Hive Badge in Johto), and HM01 (Cut)
taught to a member of the party.

If, upon cutting down the tree, the player saves the game while standing in
the spot where the tree originally stood before being cut down, and turns
off the power, he or she will find their avatar standing on top of a tree
when the game is reloaded.

In some cases, the player may find that he or she is permanently stuck on
the tree. The only remedy for this is that the game be restarted.

Glitch #2:
This glitch is a minor glitch in Generation I involving a tree near the
bottom of Route 14.

If this particular tree is cut down and then the player walks five steps
west from where the tree was (so that the spot where the tree used to be is
at the edge of the screen) and then walks back their path will be blocked as
if a tree was still there. Even though the tree is not visible, it can still
be cut down normally using the move Cut.


-----------
Glitch City
-----------

Travel to the Safari Zone. Enter a Safari Game, save the game, turn it off,
then turn it back on. Exit the Safari Zone. The attendant will ask if the
player would like to join a Safari Game. Answer "no". Fly anywhere (for the
easiest Glitch City to walk in, go to Route 20). After taking 500 steps, the
Safari Zone's PA will ring, and the player will be teleported into the Safari
Zone gatehouse. Leave the gatehouse through the south exit, and the player
will be in Glitch City.

To escape, use Fly or Teleport.

This works when running out of steps in other locales, including even the
trading rooms and Cable Club Colosseums.


---------------
Glitch Trainers
---------------

Glitch Trainers are a glitch Trainer class that can be battled while using
the Missingno. glitch. They can also be found by doing the Mew glitch with
Special stats ranging from 201-255 in the Red/Blue versions and 201-253 in
the Yellow version. Depending on the player's name, during the Missingno.
glitch a player can run into Black Belts, Gentlemen, Blue, and Professor
Oak, among others.

When battling a glitch Trainer, the music begins as normal wild Pokémon
music. When a glitch Pokémon is used by the Trainer, its cry may be audio
from other parts of the game, such as the background music of the final
battle with the rival.

Unlike other Trainers, the Glitch Trainer says nothing before or after the
battle. Glitch Trainers have been known to use glitch Pokémon such as
Glitchy Nidorino, Missingno., and Charizard 'M, and non-obtainable glitch
Pokémon among others. Many of the Pokémon they use cannot be caught by the
player using any known in-game trick and can only be caught using a cheating
device.


----------
Mew Glitch
----------

Method #1:
To acquire Mew at the earliest point possible in the game, the player must
not have defeated the Swimmer in Cerulean Gym and the Junior Trainer (the
one who says "I saw your feat from the grass" when the battle with him
begins) on Route 24 (west of Nugget Bridge) in the grass. It is prudent to
save before doing this. The player must defeat Nugget Bridge as usual
without engaging a battle with the Junior Trainer.

Before attempting this glitch, it is ideal to have several Poké Balls
stocked up. Note that the player must have an Abra that can teleport, and
therefore cannot be playing Yellow Version unless he or she has reached
Route 5 or traded for one prior to attempting the glitch.

The player first heals at the Cerulean City Pokémon Center, so they may
Teleport there later.

The player then needs to return to Route 24 and catch (or trade over) an
Abra, or withdraw the Abra if it is in the PC, then return to Route 24 if
not already there. The player then needs to stand above the Junior Trainer
so that he is just offscreen. Then the player needs to move down until seen,
and immediately press Start. The player then needs to use Teleport with
Abra. If done correctly, the Trainer should get the indicative exclamation
mark while the player teleports. At this point, the Start menu will not work
until the player battles someone though it is imperative to not battle
anything or anyone else or talk to anyone (including the Youngster with the
level 17 Slowpoke on Route 25 if the player wishes to use the alternate
method, see below).

The player then needs to head east from the Pokémon Center into the Cerulean
City Gym and battle the Swimmer. After defeating the Swimmer (the Start menu
should be available upon defeating him), the player then must head to Nugget
Bridge and after several steps the Start Menu appears. Upon closing of the
menu, it should begin a battle with a Lv. 7 Mew.

Note: This method, if executed correctly, will always result in a wild Mew
regardless of the last seen Pokémon's Special stat.


Method #1 (alternative):
The player must follow the steps for Method #1 exactly until they Teleport
from the Junior Trainer using Abra. Again, the Start menu will not work
after teleporting. The player then needs to head north towards Route 25 and
battle the Youngster. As in Method #1, it is imperative to not battle
anything or anyone else or talk to anyone before then. The player must
engage in battle by him seeing them (and must walk against the wall to be
seen, not towards him or the game will freeze).

After defeating the Youngster, the player then needs to walk towards
Cerulean City. After a small amount of steps, the Start menu appears.
Closing it should begin a battle against a Lv. 7 Mew.

If used on other trainers other than the Youngster, it will often be a
different Pokémon (depending on the trainer's Pokémon's Special stat); for
instance, doing so with the Lass below the Youngster will result in finding
a Lapras, which is normally only available at Silph Co.


Method #2:
For this method, the player needs to go to the Gambler in front of the
Underground Tunnel entrance east of Saffron City, and stand above him so
that he is just off screen. The player then needs to take one step down
closer to him, but make sure that he does not see the player, and then
immediately press Start. If the player is spotted, the glitch would fail.
If it was successful, the menu will appear and the player will be able to
Fly, Dig, or Teleport. The player needs to use Fly to reach Cerulean City.
While flying, the exclamation point that usually appears above a Trainer's
head when they wish to battle the player will appear. The player then needs
to go to Route 24 and, just like in Method #1, defeat the Youngster that
owns a Slowpoke (with him walking towards the player to start the battle, or
the game will freeze). After defeating him, the player needs to Fly to
Lavender Town and head west to Route 8. The Start menu will appear. Press B,
and Mew will appear at Level 7.

(Note: The player must battle the Slowpoke trainer on Route 24, but the
player does not have to battle the Gambler in front of the Underground Path.
Any trainer will do. One option is to battle one of the two bikers who are
next to each other on Route 14, then battle the Slowpoke trainer, then
return to Route 14. Because Route 14 is isolated, players should use Repel
to prevent running into wild Pokémon in the grass and messing up the trick.)


Method #3:
This method is also known as the "extended Mew glitch" and the "Ditto glitch"
due to the involvement of Ditto.

For this method, the player first needs a Pokémon with a Special Stat of 21.
It doesn't matter if the stat was naturally leveled or boosted with Calcium
as long as it's not due to an in-battle special boosting skill. Once the
player has this Pokémon, the player needs to find ANY trainer in the game
that will engage in battle the moment the trainer is on-screen and the
player is in the trainer's line of sight. The most common examples are the
Gambler east of Saffron City and the Junior Trainer in the high grass west
of Nugget Bridge. Often people have already fought these trainers, so other
later-game trainers include a couple Bikers on Route 17 (Cycling Road) or
the four trainers on the west side of Route 14 (three Bikers and one Bird
Keeper). The player then needs to get the trainer off screen. Next, take a
single step towards him, enough for him to start the battle, and immediately
press Start before he spots the player and the exclamation point appears.
Once the player has pressed start and the start menu appears, the trainer
needs to Fly, Dig, or Teleport elsewhere. The location being traveled to
must have a path via which the player can walk both to a place where there
is wild Ditto (Route 15 east of Fuchsia City in Red and Blue and Pokémon
Mansion in Yellow Version) and after to a place with a trainer to fight.
This is because the Start button will no longer work until after a battle
with a trainer (to be mentioned) because the game has been tricked into
thinking it's in battle mode. Once the battle with the trainer the player
picked was evaded successfully, the player then needs to battle ANY trainer
in the game, as long as there is one space between the player and the
trainer when the battle is initiated so that the trainer has to walk up to
the player and the player doesn't approach the trainer directly. After
defeating the trainer, the player needs to find a wild Ditto, and battle it
until it uses Transform on the player's Pokémon with the Special Stat of 21.
After defeating the Ditto (with any of the player's six Pokémon), the player
needs to avoid running into any other wild Pokémon and/or battling any other
trainers, and go back to the Route where the trainer the player first evaded
is located (for the Gambler, east of Saffron City, for the Bikers, Route 14;
etc.). Once the Route is approached, the start menu will automatically
appear. The player needs to press the B Button. A battle will begin
immediately and a Lv. 7 Mew will appear.

This method can be used to catch any Pokémon in the game, even some glitch
Pokémon. While a Pokémon with a Special stat of 21 will give one Mew, using
a Pokémon with a different special stat will give the player a different
Pokémon. For example, in the Red/Blue versions, if a Pokémon with a Special
stat of 198 is used, a glitch called "LM4" will appear instead of Mew. There
are, however, some glitch Pokémon such as 8 and PkMn n which cannot be
caught using this method. Some Special stats will cause glitch Trainers to
appear. They may be glitched versions of regular in-game trainers, such as
Bruno with Blaine's party.


--------------
Old Man Glitch
--------------

Requirements:
- A Pokémon that knows Fly (assuming the player has the badge to use it).
- A Pokémon that knows Surf (assuming the player has the badge to use it).
- At least one of the item to be cloned (for the purposes of this explanation,
 the article shall use a Rare Candy).
- At least five other items in the bag.
- Access to Cinnabar Island or Fuchsia City.

Instructions:
Talk to the old man located north of Viridian City. Allow him to demonstrate
how to catch a Pokémon.

Once he is finished, immediately use Fly to travel to either Cinnabar Island
or Fuchsia City and then Surf to Seafoam Islands.

Make sure that the Rare Candy is in the sixth slot of the bag.

Surf up and down along the east coast of either island where the water is
touching the land. Whether Missingno. can be encountered depends on the
player's name; other Pokémon may appear instead. Continue Surfing along the
coast until Missingno. appears (assuming that the player's entered name will
cause a Missingno. encounter). Some names may not cause Missingno. to appear.
If so, the player may find 'M, which works just as well.

Defeat, run from, or catch Missingno. or 'M.

After the battle, open the menu and view the items currently in the bag. If
done correctly, the game should show "?8" or "?5" as the amount of Rare
Candies in the bag (? being a glitch character). This can represent either
128 or 255, respectively. It seems to depend on whether Missingno./'M was
caught or not.


------------
ZZAZZ Glitch
------------

The ZZAZZ glitch is a glitch found in the Generation I games. It is
encountered by using the Mew glitch with a Special stat that has a decimal
number of any multiple of 251, 252, 254 or 255. This makes the player
encounter a glitch Trainer that in turn allows this glitch to occur.

This trainer can be difficult to beat particularly due to the fact that the
HP bar of the first Pokémon is abnormally high similar to the side-effects
of using a Super Glitch move.

The first of the opponents' Pokémon is usually Level 153 proving to be more
difficult to beat than a normal Level 100 Pokémon but strangely the player
can easily escape this trainer by using an item such as a Poké Ball or Poké
Flute regardless of the fact in a normal battle this would normally have no
effect. The glitch trainer usually has a Charizard 'M or a Q in his first
slot; depending on whether the version is Pokémon Red and Blue or Pokémon
Yellow. This trainer will usually block a thrown Poké Ball; however, the
battle would suddenly end.

A side effect of the ZZAZZ Glitch causes the player's name to become
replaced with one that is much longer, replacing most previous letters in
the player's name to be replaced by Z's.

Another notable side-effect of this glitch is how it changes the Pokémon in
the trainer's party to Level 153. Most sprites of Pokémon in the party are
replaced with the back-sprite of Bulbasaur and outside of battle the
trainer's sprite changes on the Trainer card. A possible explanation to why
the back-sprites of all of the player's Pokémon in battle are changed to
Bulbasaur is because the ZZAZZ Glitch overwrites several variables with the
hex value 99. This explains why the party Pokémon are changed to Level 153
because a hexadecimal value of 99 is equal to the integer 153 in standard
decimal. A hexadecimal value of 99 also corresponds to the letter "Z" and
the move "Explosion", which suggests that the ZZAZZ Glitch has made a
significant change to the data of the party Pokémon. Other less noticeable
effects include changes to the interfaces in-game such as the menu, where if
a player attempts to save the game the cursor scrolls over 'yes' and 'no'
causing the game to crash. A white screen will appear if the player attempts
to view their party Pokémon.

Although the player's name will glitch, the OT values of the party Pokémon
will stay the same. This 'tricks' the game into thinking that they are not
the player's Pokémon. The combination of this, and the Pokémon's levels
being at 153, causes them to disobey the Trainer (as not even the Earth
Badge is programmed to make Pokémon over level 100 obey the player.)

Any Trainer battle fought during the glitch will become a battle against a
glitch Trainer with the player's sprite. He will either borrow the player's
original name, their ZZAZZ-glitched name, or sometimes a different glitched
name. His party will consist mainly of several Charizard 'M or Q, and this
trainer could be considered "almost impossible" to defeat, because one of
his Charizard 'Ms has an extremely large amount of HP that is possibly close
to the largest maximum amount of a Pokémon when taking two bytes into
account (65536).

If the player saves after activating the ZZAZZ Glitch, their save file will
be corrupted and they will be forced to start a new save file.


------------------------
Man on Cinnabar Gym Roof
------------------------

If one does not have the key to the Cinnabar Gym, and surfs on the east
coast and returns to land directly in front of the gym, a man will appear on
the roof of the gym. A similar effect happens if the player walks into the
Vermilion City Gym, walks directly left and then up so that they are facing
the bottom-left trash can and press A to inspect it, or if the player is in
the gatehouse to Cycling Road. One of the trainers in the gym will be
misplaced and return to his usual spot once the text box disappears, and
when in the gatehouse there may be a man standing on an object somewhere
behind the guard.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Prevented Progress (Japanese Pocket Monsters Red/Green Versions only)
---------------------------------------------------------------------

If one evolves their starter Pokémon before they obtain their Pokédex from
Prof. Oak, the game will assume that, since they have 2 Pokémon registered
as caught, that they already have a Pokédex, and will not allow them to
proceed. This glitch is only present in the Japanese Red and Green Versions.


------------
Invisible PC
------------

There is a hotel in Celadon City that resembles a Pokémon Center on the
inside. In the top-right space of the area that the player can walk on,
there is an invisible, usable PC.


--------------
Statue Fishing
--------------

The player can use a Fishing Rod when facing the right or left of a gym
statue. It will always say "Looks like there's nothing in here...", except
in Misty's gym, where all the Pokémon obtainable in the gym can be caught.


-------------------------------------------
Quick Lv. 100 (Pokémon Yellow Version only)
-------------------------------------------

This glitch is similar to the Mew glitch, but can be done in the Viridian
Forest. First the player must go to the second to last trainer and be out of
his view (and must also not be able to see him). Walk one space and come
into his view. Press Start and use an Escape Rope to go to the Pewter City
Pokémon Center. A, B, Start, and Select will not work. Now go try to go out
of Pewter City towards Mt. Moon. The guy will stop the player and show him
or her to Brock's Gym. Now the player must go to the small patch of grass
south of Pewter City and north of Viridian Forest. Encounter a Pokémon and
use Growl on it 6 times. (Try again and Growl less if the player gets a
Level 0 Pokémon at the end, instead of 1.) Now walk into the forest (the
message 'Do you have a Pikachu?' will appear). The player will immediately
go into a Pokémon battle with a Level 1 Pokémon. When the player weakens the
Pokémon, he/she must catch it. If the player uses it in a Pokémon Battle and
it levels up it should skip straight to Level 100 (as long as that Pokémon
is one of any fully-evolved Pokémon or Mew, as the algorithm for the
experience to the next level for those Pokémon is glitched and takes the
experience to level 2 as a rather large negative number (which displays as a
large positive number.) Note: The player can obtain different level 1
Pokémon by facing different Pokémon to the patch of grass south of Pewter
City and North of Viridian Forest.


-------------
Stuck in Wall
-------------

If the player lures an NPC into the grass above Pallet Town, she will block
the player from following Professor Oak correctly, causing the player to
become stuck in the wall of Oak's laboratory.


-----------------------
Dokokashira Door Glitch
-----------------------

The Dokokashira door glitch takes advantage of the fact that in Pokémon Red
and Green, the player is able to switch the slots of items as well as
Pokémon. However, an oversight of this feature was that if the player were
to press the Select button on the items screen and then attempt to switch
one of his or her Pokémon, he or she would arguably be switching a Pokémon
with an item.

When the player attempts to switch an item with a Pokémon, this is
essentially like switching information about other data in the game, such as
what kinds of items the player has, or the map location of the player. The
game will take an item to be the information about one of the "Pokémon" past
the sixth slot (or data after the amount of Pokémon that the player currently
has in the party).

When the player switches Oak's Parcel as the second item in his or her Bag
with his or her first Pokémon, this will "shuffle" several bytes within the
game. Some of these effects are undesirable, such as slight graphical errors
on the main map interface; however, one of the more useful effects will
ensure that the warp location of the next door the player walks through is
relevant to the amount of extra steps he or she takes.

STEPS:
Firstly, the player should start a New Game.  The player should withdraw a
Potion from the PC, so that he or she has one item. Walk out of the door and
proceed into the tall grass, wait until Professor Oak takes you into his lab.
Choose any starter Pokémon. After Blue chooses his Pokémon, attempt to leave
Professor Oak's lab. Either defeat or lose to Blue and then proceed out of
the lab and through the grass on the way to Pewter City. Proceed to the Poké
Mart and receive Oak's Parcel. The player should proceed back to Pallet Town
but ensure that he or she enters a wild Pokémon battle on the way. Move to
the Items option and use the Select button on Oak's Parcel. Select 'Cancel'
and then select 'PKMN'. The cursor should still be white, choose your starter
Pokémon to switch it with Oak's Parcel. Check the starter's moves on the
'Fight' screen, to check that the game has not altered any undesirable bytes.
If the starter's moves have not been changed run from the Pokémon battle and
then walk exactly 73 steps, landing the last step in Blue's house in Pallet
Town. The player should be near the house where HM02 (Fly) is normally
obtainable, walk another five steps to the right and then move down so that
it looks like the player is attempting to move through the house's ceiling, it
is the spot one step north of its right hand corner. The player should appear
in the northern section of the Cycling Road House, walk nine steps and aim
the last step to be through the exit to the north-east corner. Walk an extra
45 steps eastwards and aim the last step to be through the double doors of
Celadon Department Store (the door to the right). The player should now be in
a glitched version of the Hall of Fame room and he or she will be able to
see the credits.


----------------
TMTRAINER Effect
----------------

The TMTRAINER effect is the common name for a series of glitchy effects
associated with the move -- and most Super Glitch moves occupying Hexadecimal
Identifiers between AC to C3 (or those with index numbers between 172 and 195.)

Effects in battle:
Most commonly, side effects associated with the use of these glitch moves
will only occur in battle. There are many strings of dialogue that can occur,
but the most common will result in the enemy Pokémon acquiring a large
amount of HP and becoming Frozen, but it will simultaneously become Burned.
On the same turn the opponent's name would be changed so that it contains
the string "TMTRAINER" as well as some glitch dialogue. Since the game will
often give the opponent a larger amount of HP than its maximum, the opponent
Pokémon may faint due to the large amount of damage from its burn.

The common TMTRAINER effect usually follows this pattern:

- The opponent will acquire the Burn status.

- The music will fade; however it is notable that sometimes certain sound
 effects will play.

- Presuming that all in-battle processes were previously running as they
 should have been; when an move or item is used, the following text will be
 displyed: "Enemy [glitch dialogue, which often takes up a large amount of
 space] TMTRAINER (Species) is Frozen solid!"

- Then similarly, the text will be displayed: "Enemy [glitch dialogue
 occupying a large amount of space] TMTRAINER (Species) is hurt by the burn!"

- The enemy Pokémon's health bar will wrap across the screen several times,
 and slowly deplete until eventually when after several minutes the enemy
 Pokémon may faint.

- If the player was battling a trainer, the opponent will send out the
 Pokémon that was in battle before the glitch activated. Upon the battle
 finishing, the game will freeze. Also, if a wild Pokémon was being battled,
 the game will freeze as soon as the battle ends.

Explanation:
The TMTRAINER effect starts when certain glitch moves are used which
correspond to information about irrelevant data within the game. The most
typical example is the move --, which corresponds with data concerning how
the Cancel button functions; it usually has no effect, but when the player
changes the PP of the move it will also change the effect of the glitch move
and other irrelevant information regarding how the battle interface should
function for example, or information outside of battle which could cause the
game to freeze. The glitch moves with index numbers between 172 and 195
appear to correspond with information about the same set of variables which
correspond with information about the opponent's name, status and other
factors, so if the player reduces the amount of PP of that move by one
essentially this data will be "shuffled" slightly.


--------------
EXP. Underflow
--------------

If the player uses a Level 1 Pokémon in a Pokémon battle and it levels up it
should skip straight to Level 100, as long as that Pokémon is one of any
fully-evolved Pokémon or Mew, as the algorithm for the experience to the next
level for those Pokémon is glitched and takes the experience to Level 2 as a
large negative number (which displays as a large positive number).


--------------------
Ghost Marowak Glitch
--------------------

Using a Poké Doll on the ghost Marowak in Pokémon Tower with or without the
Silph Scope will cause it to permanently disappear.


------------
Ghost Glitch
------------

When encountering a ghost in Pokémon Tower without having a Silph Scope, it
is possible to see its true identity by viewing the stats of any Pokémon in
the player's party. However, this glitch is only graphical, and it is still
impossible to fight or catch it.


-------------------
Cycling Road Glitch
-------------------

If the player does not have a Bicycle (or has it deposited in the PC), it is
still possible to reach Cycling Road by holding down the left button while
the guard attempts to prevent the player from entering the Cycling Road. Upon
entering Cycling Road, the player will be automatically riding a bike, despite
not having one.


-------------------------------
Cable Club Room Escape Glitches
-------------------------------

Requirements:
- Access to the Cable Club via another person with R/B/Y
- A Poisoned Pokémon (method #1)
- Access to the Safari Zone (method #2)
- Access to Dig (method #2)

Method #1 (Red/Blue only):
First, the player needs to Poison their Pokémon and be linked with another
person. Preferably, the player then enters the trade center and initiates a
trade with the other person or battle with the other player to copy the roster
into the game's memory for later use in the glitch. The player then presses
Cancel, or ends the battle and walks around until the Poison causes the
Pokémon to faint. After the Pokémon faints, the player will black out as
normal, though the game still assumes the player to be linked.

Method #2 (all versions):
The player must enter a Safari Game, then immediately after entering, attempt
to leave. The attendant will ask if the player wants to leave early to which
the player must answer "no". The player must then re-enter the Safari Zone.
The game should then be saved and reset. The player must now attempt to exit
the Safari Zone. The attendant will ask if the player would like to join a
Safari Game, to which the player must answer "no". The player should then Fly
anywhere.

The player must then enter the Cable Club, and walk around until their Safari
Zone steps run out and they are returned to the gate, activating the glitch.

To prevent a Trade Center or Colosseum Glitch City, the player can reenter the
Safari Zone and Dig away. In Pokémon Red and Blue, Poison can also be used to
escape a Trade Center or Colosseum Glitch City, although this is redundant
over the poison method.

Resultant Effects:
After exploiting the glitch, the player is unable to save under normal
circumstances because the save button is replaced by the reset button. The
player is also unable to open the item pack, because normally items cannot be
used when in link with another player. Provided that these settings are kept,
if the player proceeds to encounter any Trainer outside of the Cable Club their
roster will be replaced with the one last stored by the game when trading or
battling with the player, and their picture will be replaced with Red's. Since
the game is no longer receiving data from the other player, the name of the
player simply becomes a blank space. The behavior of the other player is
automatically controlled by the game and depends on the Trainer class; for
example, encountering Bruno will make a Trainer appear with the other player's
Pokémon, but a tendency to use X Defend. If the player did not trade or battle
with the player, then a glitch Trainer with a glitchy name will appear instead
with a team of glitch Pokémon; however, it is still technically the same
Trainer class of the original Trainer, despite it having Red's picture. This is
because a RAM address in the data structure is left checked to make all
Trainer's have Red's picture and use the other player's Pokémon.

Unlike the "death Trainer" found after the ZZAZZ glitch, a Trainer with Red's
picture cannot be found by encountering a wild Pokémon and will only be found
when trying to encounter an existing Trainer. Remaining HP, moves and status
effects are also taken into account, meaning the other player could for
instance replace Bruno's team with a Poisoned Level 5 Magikarp with 1 HP. If
all of the player's Pokémon were fainted, a Charizard 'M or Q will be sent out
instead.

Exclusively to Pokémon Yellow, the glitch also restricts Poison in the
overworld, because the Poison method exclusive to Pokémon Red and Blue was
fixed by restricting Pokémon outside of battle from losing HP due to Poison
when linked.

To restore the settings back to normal and be able to save, the player can
simply reset the game, though any changes since entering the Cable Club are
not saved. To be able to save the game, the player can simply change boxes.
Alternatively, the player can enter the Cable Club again to be taken out due
to inactivity, which restores the save button and allows the player to open
the item pack again. Another method of restoring the options is to view the
summary screen of any Pokémon in battle; this will allow the player to use
their items again.

This glitch is useful for mass duplication of items, as although changes to
the item pack in the Cable Club are prohibited, items will be changed outside
of the Cable Club even with the reset button. For example, a player could use
a party of six Missingno., view the summary of a Pokémon in battle to restore
the item pack to have one of their items duplicated, and then continuously swap
the sixth item to duplicate many items in one battle. This glitch is also
useful for encountering item-mutating glitch Pokémon which are otherwise
difficult or otherwise impossible to see on the opponent's side outside of the
Cable Club.
