[00] Top Tips
_________________________________________________
- Check out section II; 'Basics' if you've never played a Pokemon game before.
Otherwise, some of the terminology here will be a bit confusing.
- Save before important fights. If nothing else, obey this tip.
- Learn your type-effectiveness by looking at the charts I (and others) have
provided. Mine is in section B03; 'Types'. Print it. Study it. Absorb it.
- Always stock up on Poke/Great/Ultra Balls, because I guarantee you will run
out at the most inopportune moment otherwise.
- Induce status ailments (burn, paralysis, etc.) to catch resilient Pokemon
more easily. The harder they are to catch, the more useful this becomes.
- If you are using a Poke/Ultra Ball, it has the most effectiveness when your
target is at a third of its max HP; then any more HP reduction becomes
useless. So getting a Pokemon to 1HP is pointless. For Great Balls, this is
increased to half of its Max HP!
- Make HM slaves--that is, Pokemon that only use HM moves--so that your main
fighting force isn't bogged with terrible moves (but Surf is usually a good
choice). Without trading to GSC, HMs cannot be removed.
- Teach your Pokemon moves that match their types--known as Same Type Attack
Bonus (STAB)--for a 1.5x damage boost to those moves.
- Train a team of Pokemon, but don't overdo it. Out of a potential six, three
or four would be best so that they all get a decent amount of Exp. and hold a
respectable amount of type advantages.
- Fill out the empty slots in your party with garbage Pokemon. For tougher
battles, you can switch these guys in and let them eat a hit while you revive
or heal your main fighters.
- Know which Pokemon are strong and use them, unless you don't mind
disadvantaging yourself for the sake of using your favourites. I'd highly
recommend following the advice in the Team Building section, T02; 'In-Game
(Elite Four) Teams', if you wish to find the most useful in-game 'Mons.
- Know when to evolve your Pokemon, which increases their stats and sometimes
grants them access to new moves, but also delays the time it takes to learn
new moves. Check out the Pokedex section of this guide to make the best
judgement.
- If you can, trade Pokemon, because a traded Pokemon receives 1.5x Exp. Some
Pokemon are exclusive to Red or Blue, so must be traded (or accessed via
glitches or GameShark) if you wish to own them in the other versions.
- Stay aware of which Pokemon you have caught, since the game doesn't tell you
if you have previously caught the Pokemon you are fighting once you've
engaged it in battle (future generations have a Poke Ball symbol to indicate
that you have it in your Pokedex). I have provided a checklist in section
L08; 'Pokemon Locations Checklist' if you wish to keep track of them more
easily, as well as a list of new Pokemon available in each area.
- I have also provided a checklist of items--if you are trying to collect
every item in the game, I strongly urge you to use the checklists at the
beginning of each area. That way, you won't miss a single item in the game.
- Finally, have fun. Pokemon is still fun after many years and not too hard to
beat if you invest some time into training your critters.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 5
At the beginning of each new area, I'll present a section header like this,
which detail what Pokemon you can find in each version, their level range and
how rare they are. I'll also give you a recommended average party level, and a
list of Poke Mart items for areas that have shops in. Now get started!
After pressing NEW GAME, skip through Oak's text with the A Button. Mashing the
A button makes it go faster, so keep that in mind. Eventually, you'll arrive at
an opportunity to name yourself.
___
Missingno. Glitch Exploitation (Red/Blue only)
For the owners of Red and Blue who intend on exploiting the Missingno. Glitch
later on, you might want to take a look at section C05; 'The Missingno.
Glitch' for the optimum way of exploiting the glitch. I'm warning you now
because it uses the characters in your name to determine the level and species
of Pokemon that appear once you exploit the glitch.
WARNING!
Even if you don't plan on altering your name but still wish to exploit
Missingno. later on, it would be wise to NOT name your character with any non-
letter symbols in the third, fifth and seventh spaces of your name. Having a
non-letter symbol in these spaces caused a glitch trainer to appear when you
exploit the glitch and he can ERASE YOUR CARTRIDGE. So I repeat, DO NOT give
your character any symbols in his name which are NOT letters in the third,
fifth or seventh spaces of his name.
___
The canonical name for your character is Red (Ash from the anime is based on
Red) as evidenced by your battle with him at the end of GSC. Once you've named
yourself, name your rival, which to my knowledge has no side-effects. HIS
canonical name is Blue (Gary from the anime is based on Blue), again seen when
you battle him in GSC. After skipping all Oak's text--don't tell me you
actually read it!--then you're REALLY ready to begin.
You start out in your house, upstairs in your bedroom. For your first item of
the game, go to your PC, activate it and withdraw the <POTION>. Woo! A Potion
restores 20HP to any of your Pokemon and can be used on the field or in the
middle of AI battles if you forfeit a turn. Might as well check it off on the
checklist I've provided, if you're using it.
___
Item checklist
--------------
At the beginning of each section I'll be outlining which items you can get in
that area, just so you don't accidentally forget any. Note that sometimes
you'll have to revisit an area at a later time to get all of its items, but
I'll be taking you back to these areas throughout the walkthrough, so don't
worry!.
A NOTE ON MISSABLE ITEMS: To the best of my knowledge, no item in this game is
missable. To those of you who are already itching to say 'S.S. Anne', it *is*
possible to revisit the S.S. Anne. Check out section C10; 'Getting the S.S.
Anne to Reappear' for details.
'H' denotes that the item is hidden; that is, that you cannot see it on the map
and must uncover it using the A button on its specific location. I'll be
pointing these all out in the guide, so don't worry!
'R' 'B' or 'Y' denotes that the item is only available in Red, Blue or Yellow
respectively.
___
Now it's time to fiddle with the Option menu, methinks:
___
Option
------
- Text Speed: Fast Medium Slow
Fast isn't particularly fast, but the other speeds are painful.
- Battle Animation: On Off
Whether you see the animation of a Pokemon's move execution. On is good for
the novelty, but Off is the quicker and more efficient option.
- Style: Shift Set
Shift means that once you have knocked out a Pokemon, the game will tell you
which Pokemon, if any, your opponent is going to send out next, and will give
you the choice of switching to another member of your team. Set means that
the opponent brings out the next Pokemon without giving you any prior warning
or opportunity to switch out. Shift is easily the superior option, but if you
plan on battling competitively or against other (real life) people, the
option is adamantly set to, well, Set. You might want to get in practice now.
- Sound: Mono Earphone1 Earphone2 Earphone3 (Yellow only)
Personal preference here, really. The default is Mono and that is what I
stick with.
- Print: Lightest Lighter Normal Darker Darkest (Yellow only)
The tone setting you would like to use for your non-existent Game Boy
Printer.
The best options are probably Fast-Off-Shift(-Mono-Normal).
___
Go downstairs by walking into the stairs in the top right corner. Speak to your
Mom (Mum to the English out there) if you wish and head outside into Pallet
Town by walking into the doormat at the south of the room.
You can explore and chat to people but no-one has any useful information. To
continue with the quest, head north into the grassy wilderness of Route 1...
Professor Oak will stop you and, if you happen to be playing Yellow, catch a
Pikachu at L5, the only one in the entire game. Red and Blue players can pick
one up later. He'll drag you back to his lab where you'll meet your Rival, with
whatever name you handed him at the beginning, the poor guy. Oak will then talk
about some stuff which no-one really listens to and then he (finally) gives you
the opportunity to pick a Pokemon.
In Yellow, when you go to nab the Pokemon on the desk, your Rival will shove
you aside and take it himself, leaving you with the L5 Pikachu that Oak caught
earlier. Git.
In Red/Blue, there are three of them, safely contained within their Poke Balls
on the desk to the right, and from left to right they are Charmander, Squirtle
and Bulbasaur, all at L5. But which one should you pick?
___
Pokemon Evaluations
Let's weigh up the starters, shall we?
Note: You'll notice that the Pokemon's names are written in capitals and
surrounded by '<' and '>' signs. Use the find feature in your browser or text
editor (typically accessed by holding Ctrl and pressing F) and type in the text
as it appears. Hit return to jump to a more detailed overview of that Pokemon,
as well as a rating for how well they perform during the game. You can then hit
return again to jump back to the section of the walkthrough you were at. Neato.
Sometimes, a Pokemon will perform differently or be available later in Yellow
version compared to Red or Blue; these Pokemon will have R, B or Y written next
to their names to denote which versions that evaluation applies to. I've also
included a rating from one to five stars for those of you who are too lazy to
read up about them!
Example: For <EXAMPLE (Y)>, hit Crtl + F and type <EXAMPLE (Y)> into the box,
then hit return.
<CHARMANDER (RB)> - Rating: *****
A Fire type Pokemon, Charmander will grow into Charizard in time, a good
Fire/Flying dual type. However, he is not very effective against the first Gym
(although will still win) and useless in the second, so this will need to be
compensated for. As Fire Pokemon go, he is probably the best choice overall,
which is a big plus, since Fire types aren't all that useful. Probably for
advanced players, you could do a lot worse than Charmander. Gets a nice bunch
of TMs and a good movepool, although you'll be stuck with Ember for a Fire move
for a while.
Pros:
+ Good Speed.
+ Probably the best Fire type competitively.
+ Fire type grants immunity to BRN status.
+ Nice movepool--learns some good TMs like Dig.
Cons:
- Finds second Gym very tough.
- Quite a few weaknesses (Charmander/Charmeleon: Water, Rock and Ground;
Charizard: Water, 4x Rock, Electric, Ice).
<SQUIRTLE (RB)> - Rating: *****
Squirtle is a pure Water type Pokemon and stays that way upon his final
evolution into Blastoise. Water is a great type with only two weaknesses, and
he's a great early-game Pokemon and gets access to the great Ice Beam, Surf and
Dig TMs and HMs. He performs really well in the first gym too, although you'll
start needing backup from the second Gym onwards. His offensive stats don't
match up to Venusaur's, but he has some nice Defense and his wider selection of
moves means he more than compensates for this.
Pros:
+ Good Defense.
+ Handles first gym nicely.
+ Gets some good TM moves very early--BubbleBeam and Ice Beam.
+ Probably the most useful of the three for the Elite Four.
+ Fewest weaknesses of the three starters--only Electric and Grass.
Cons:
- Outclassed by lots Water types competitively.
- Least power output of the three starters.
<BULBASAUR (RB)> - Rating: *****
Bulbasaur and his evolutions up to and including Venusaur are all dual
Grass/Poison types. If not for the unfortunate hindrance of Poison-typing,
Bulbasaur would be amazing. As it stands, he's still damn good. His curse,
however, is also a slight blessing, since he is immune to the ever-irritating
Poison (PSN) status effect. Bulbasaur does incredibly well in the first two
gyms and isn't too shabby in the three after that, either. He also has the
highest Special rating of the starters, meaning his Grass attacks do a lot of
damage. He's a nice choice, but he doesn't get Razor Leaf for a long time and
will be stuck with fairly lame moves up until then.
Pros:
+ Good Special, which means good Special Attack AND Special Defense.
+ Has the most damage output of the three starters.
+ Best of the three starters in a competitive scenario. Arguably.
+ Evolves into final form four levels earlier (L32) than the other two.
+ Poison type grants immunity to PSN status; Grass type grants immunity to
Leech Seed.
Cons:
- Lots of weaknesses (Fire, Flying, Psychic, Ice, 4x Bug).
- Only learns Grass and Normal moves.
- Stuck with lame moves until at least L27. Make that L30 if you evolve it.
I'd go with Squirtle, but all three are great choices really. Looking at stats,
Bulbasaur's the best due to Special being equal to Special Defense and Special
Attack, but with regards to movepool and such I would give Squirtle the nod for
'best' starter, but only narrowly. Don't sweat your initial choice too much
since they are all good--you really can go by personal preference and you won't
go too far wrong, unlike in some future Pokemon games in which there is clearly
a best starter. Go with whatever your instinct says, since you can complete the
game with any of them with little difficulty if you follow this guide, which
takes all of them into account. They've all got a five star ranking, after all.
Yellow owners are stuck with Pikachu. Yawn.
<PIKACHU (Y)> - Rating: **
I won't be comparing Pikachu to the other starters here, since Yellow players
are stuck with him. A speedy Electric type, the reason he gets such a low
rating is because in Yellow version he refuses to evolve, leaving his stats
sub-par compared to your other teammates. He's pretty useful for the early
sections of the game--but is useless for the first Gym and so you'll need to
get him some teammates pretty quickly. I'd definitely keep him around for
frying all the Flying type Pokemon you'll come across in the early stages of
the game. He also helps out in the second Gym (but he'll be hard-pressed to
beat her Starmie). Once your other Pokemon start to outpower him--usually after
they've evolved--it's time to replace him with something better.
___
So you can check off either Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle or Pikachu on your
checklist. Once you've received your first Pokemon, remember to save! Then head
south to engage in your first battle.

Stats - HP: 21 Atk: 11 Def: 10 Spc: 12 Spe: 11
~ Tackle, Tail Whip
_________________________________________________________
You've probably noticed these 'stats' flying around everywhere:
Level (L) - A numerical measure of a Pokemon's strength, from 1 to 100.
Experience (Exp.) - Defeat foes to gain experience and increase your stats.
HP - The Pokemon's health. Reduce this to zero to faint it.
Attack (Atk) - How much damage can be dealt with physical* type attacks.
Defense (Def) - Reduces damage recieved from physical* type attacks.
Special (Spc) - Deals AND reduces damage to special^ type attacks.
Speed (Spe) - The Pokemon with the highest Speed acts first in a round.
In addition, each of your Pokemon's moves has PP, which determines how many
times that move can be used. Once it gets to zero, that move cannot be used
until you restore its PP (which can be done by visiting a Poke Center or using
an item such as an Ether). If all a Pokemon's moves have zero PP, then it uses
the move Struggle which also damages the user. Because the AI is a cheating
b****** (buffoon), AI foes have infinite PP.
*Physical types: Bug, Fighting, Flying, Ghost, Ground, Normal, Poison, Rock.
^Special types: Dragon, Electric, Fire, Grass, Ice, Psychic, Water.
Your rival will always pick the Pokemon with the type advantage over yours.
If you pick Bulbasaur, he gets Charmander. Your Charmander bags him a Squirtle,
and Squirtle is opposed by Bulbasaur. Tough luck, I'm afraid.
Not much we can do here, really. Use the FIGHT command to hammer away with your
only attacking option (Scratch, Tackle or ThunderShock) and hope your rival
bites the dust before you do. Hopefully, he'll stall with stat-lowering moves,
but don't hope for too many or they can eventually be harmful.
Use the ITEM command to use that Potion from your PC if things get tricky,
which will fully heal your battler as they have such low HP at the moment.
Yellow players might be able to paralyse (PAR) Eevee (a 10% chance) which will
be immensely helpful if Eevee then goes fully paralysed, which happens with a
25% chance each time he spends a turn in PAR. If he does go fully paralysed, he
forfeits a turn! But don't count on it too much.
___
You don't need to win, I should mention, but I'd recommend you do because
you'll get enough Exp. to get your starter Pokemon to L6 and some cash to boot.
By the way, this is the only time in the game where your Pokemon will be fully
healed after a battle, and one of only two opportunities where you can lose a
battle without forfeiting half your money.
In Yellow, you can influence how your rival's Eevee evolves.

My pride has never let me influence it in any direction other than Jolteon.
Anyway, once you win, your rival will storm out in a temper. In Yellow, Pikachu
will refuse to stay in its Poke Ball. Either way, Oak will have a word with you
afterwards. Then leave the lab. Woot.
If you go back home, your Mom (Mum) will now heal your team of Pokemon free of
charge as a replacement for the lack of a Poke Center in Pallet Town. Just
thought you should know. Afterwards, head north into the grassy wilderness

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 5
In section headers for areas with wild Pokemon, you'll notice an Encounter Rate
value--this is how many times out of 256 steps, on average, you can expect a
random encounter with Pokemon in the grass. Basically, higher number = more
random encounters. So here in Route 1, you'd expect a random enocunter every
25/256 steps--that's about a 9.8% chance per step, or about 1 in every 10
steps. Fun!
Hmmm... Pokemon? Unfortunately, you can't catch them yet. Just bash them up for
easy Exp. and make sure to use the RUN command when your Pokemon starts getting
low on health. There's a Poke Center in the next city which heals Pokemon to
full. For free. So hold your horses.
Talk to the first person you see for another <POTION>, then check it off on the
checklist. Get your starter to L7 on the way, for there is another Rival battle
coming up soon. Pikachu's ThunderShock is super-effective against Pidgeys, so
use that to your advantage. Otherwise, just attack with whatever you have. Just
keep heading north to arrive in...

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 7
The first thing you'll want to do is head to the Pokemon Center to heal up your
Pokemon. Most cities have Poke Centers and some out-of-the-way places have them
too. They'll heal your team for free so you can never use one too much. It's
the first building you'll come across. Speak to the nurse behind the counter
directly in front of you to use it.
Poke Centers are also home to PCs, which, in this bizarre world, act as a bank
account to access, withdraw and deposit Pokemon and Items. To the far right of
the Poke Center, fire up the PC to store junky Pokemon and Items which are
taking up valuable space in your inventory. You can only have six Pokemon in a
team, so plonk the rest in the PC where they will end up sitting for the rest
of their mundane lives. Use SOMEONE'S PC to access Pokemon withdrawals and
deposits.
Pokemon in the PC are organised into 12 different boxes, each of which can
store up to 20 Pokemon. You must manually set which box you are currently using
to withdraw and deposit with the CHANGE BOX option. If you have a full team of
six Pokemon and catch another in the wild, it will be sent to the box you have
selected. If that box is full of 20 Pokemon, you will not be able to catch any
more until you access the PC and manually change box. I'll remind you later on
to change box when it's feasable that you might be approaching the 20 Pokemon
per box limit, but after the first time it's up to you to remember.
In a similar standard, your backpack will only hold 20 different types of item
(regardless of size or weight; apparently a Bicycle takes up the same amount of
space as a Nugget), by which I mean that 99 of the same item require one item
slot. Dump your unused items in the PC too, although be aware that it too has a
limit, this time of 50 items (no boxes to mess around with, thank goodness).
Use YOUR PC for Item management.
Anyway, back to the main quest. Once you're done in the Poke Center, head to
the Poke Mart which is to the right and a bit north of the Poke Center. Go
inside and the attendant will hand you <OAK'S PARCEL> that needs to go to him
in Pallet Town. Yawn. Time to head back to there then, I guess.
Cut through Route 1 and just go south. You can jump the ledges to avoid the
grass, if you wish, but there's the small patch at the end you'll have to pass
through. Personally, I head through the grass for the invaluable Exp.

[ ] Town Map
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 8
Head to Oak's Lab and hand him the parcel. Your Rival will arrive and mouth off
a bit, as usual. After all the chit-chat you receive a Pokedex, a handy tool
that records data on all the critters you've seen, with extra info on those
you've caught. This is the secondary quest in the Pokemon series--to fill up
the Dex.
Once you've nabbed the Pokedex, head to your Rival's house, the one directly
above the lab. Yes, like most RPGs, people in this world don't mind if you
barge into their homes and steal everything that isn't nailed down while
they're going about their business. But anyway, speak to your Rival's sister to
grab that <TOWN MAP> he was boasting about so much. It's mildly useful if you
don't know the layout of the world, but you won't need it with this guide and
becomes obsolete upon gaining HM02 (Fly).
At this point I bet you're itching to get some more Pokemon, so I've got good
news for you. Head back to Viridian City for me, would you? On your way through
Route 1, aim for L8 with your Pokemon.
The first thing you'll want to do now is head to the Poke Mart and buy some
Poke Balls. You can never have too many, but I'd suggest around 10 or so for
now, which should still leave you with $1175, a comfortable amount--$1000 if
you lost to your Rival (!). You might also want an Antidote or two for Viridian
Forest--especially Red players--but I never bother, because them pesky Weedles
always die before they can hurt you if you know how to fight them.
___
Status Effects
--------------
Speaking of Antidotes, you might have run into some status effects already,
namely if you're a Yellow player and have managed to paralyse any foes. Status
effects can cripple your team members if you aren't careful. Here's what you're
up against:
Burn (BRN) - Saps HP and halves your Attack stat.
Confusion - Pokemon attacks itself 50% of the time. Eventually wears
off. Can switch out to get rid of the effect.
Flinch - Miss a turn.
Freeze (FRZ) - Afflicted Pokemon cannot use any moves.
Leech Seed - Saps HP and transfers it to the foe. Can switch out to get
rid of the effect.
Paralysis (PAR) - Quarters your Speed stat and occasionally miss a turn.
Poison (PSN) - Saps HP in battles *and* saps HP slowly while walking
around!
Sleep (SLP) - Afflicted Pokemon cannot use any moves. Eventually wears
off.
Toxic Poison (PSN) - Saps HP in battles; effect worsens over time. Reverts to
standard Poison upon switching out or finishing battle.
Always be sure to keep a couple of healing items on you, which can be bought
from Poke Marts--Burn Heal for Burns, Ice Heal for Freeze, Parlyz Heal for
Paralysis, Antidote for Poison and Awakening for Sleep.
Full Heal also cures everything with abbreviations--Burn, Freeze, Paralysis,
Poison and Sleep. Only one of these status effects can be applied to a Pokemon
at any one time. The others--Confusion, Flinch and Leech Seed, can all be
applied on top of any one of those status effects.
Check out section M03; 'Status Effects' for some more in-depth details.
___
Anyway, there's another fight against Rival-boy in a while, which you might
want to get into practice for because you are probably not ready for him yet
with your L8 or so monster. So what do we do? Well, we use these new Poke
Balls, of course. Head back to Route 1, first of all.
_______

_______
New Pokemon
-----------
[ ] Pidgey [ ] Rattata
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 8
Get yourself into a wild battle like usual. Then prepare to catch something!
Catching Pokemon essentially requires you to lower their health as low as you
can (below a third is the best you can get--any farther is unnecessary) without
killing them, then tossing Balls at them until they're caught. Easy, no? Status
ailments such as paralysis improve your chances, so if your Pikachu is L8 in
Yellow, Thunder Wave will help out as well, but don't sweat it too much since
the difference is negligible on Pokemon as easy to catch as this.
Here's what's up for grabs:
<PIDGEY> - Rating: **
A weak Flying type with no decent Flying moves until you hit Cerulean City and
get the Fly HM (more on HMs later). You might want it now, but it will soon
lose its usefulness. Don't bother with it, but catch it for the Pokedex, or to
Fly you around later in the game.
<RATTATA> - Rating: ***
Actually really useful in the early game and learns the fantastic Hyper Fang at
L14, far and away the best move at this point. Like Pidgey, though, it loses
usefulness as the game progresses. Get a nice variety of TMs but weak stats
overall.
Now that you have more than one Pokemon in your party, you can use the PKMN
command in battle to switch Pokemon if things get hairy. You can also use the
POKEMON command in the start menu to switch Pokemon about. The topmost one in
your group of up to six will be sent out first, with the other five as back-
ups. Once you've caught the two critters here, head back to Viridian.

Well now, we're preparing for Rival battle numero 2 at this point. I would
highly recommend going to Viridian Forest first to catch a wider variety of
critters, so that's where I'm taking us now.
On your way out of Viridian City to the north, Coffee Man will bug you and give
you a (rubbish) tutorial on catching Pokemon. Grin and bear it, I'm afraid--I
think my tutorial was much better! Afterwards, examine the nearby tree to the
left (looks like a cactus) for a hidden <POTION>. (Note: Hidden items will be
denoted with an '(H)' symbol next to them in the item checklist.) Then head
north to Route 2.

[ ] Caterpie (B) [ ] Weedle (R) [ ] Nidoran F (Y) [ ] Nidoran M (Y)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 8
Okay, let's start catching stuff.
<CATERPIE> - Rating: **
Only available in Blue for the moment but available in just a minute in Red and
Yellow. Caterpie evolves early at L7 and then again at L10 into Butterfree, who
will help immensely in the next gym if you don't have Bulbasaur or Squirtle. If
you don't have one of these two, definitely get one. You might want one anyway,
since although its stats are sucky, it learns Sleep Powder super-early and a
few useful moves before it gets outclassed. It's definitely the best Pokemon
you can have at this point once it evolves, but it is severely outclassed later
on and so gets a lowish rating overall.
<WEEDLE> - Rating: *
Available in Blue soon enough, but not Yellow. Unlike Caterpie, Weedle and his
evolutions are useless.
<NIDORAN F> - Rating: *****
<NIDORAN M> - Rating: *****
More or less the same Pokemon--if you invest some TMs in these guys and their
evolutions, the final form, Nidoqueen or Nidoking, can be a beast. In Yellow it
learns Double Kick at L12, which is a decent move against the next Gym. You can
also have it evolved into its final form by Mt. Moon, which is halfway between
the first and second Gyms. Power output is pretty good, stats are nice across
the board, wide movepool with TM support... Very nice.
Basically, pick up a Caterpie--especially if you have Charmander or Pikachu as
a starter. Nidoran F/M is an incredible Pokemon if you don't mind giving it
some TMs.
You might as well get your starter to L9 whilst you're searching for those
pesky Pokemon. If you're having trouble finding a particular Pokemon, save and
reset. It will reset the Random Number Generator and hopefully give you a
better chance of finding what you want.
We're basically just passing through Route 2 to get to Viridian Forest in the
north:

[ ] Caterpie (BY) ( ) Metapod [ ] Weedle (B) ( ) Kakuna (RB)

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 9
Note: In the new Pokemon list, I'll be listing evolved Pokemon with round
brackets '(' and ')' as a way of denoting that you don't need to catch them.
Metapod, for example, is not necessary to catch, as you could just evolve
Caterpie instead. Likewise, you can evolve Pidgey into Pidgeotto, so Pidgeotto
gets round brackets. You don't need to catch these guys if you're willing to
train up their pre-evolutions.
Welcome to Viridian Forest. I wouldn't advise talking to anyone except the
first person you see, or even walking into their line of sight. These guys are
trainers and will challenge you to an inescapable fight. Although you would
probably win, this isn't why we're here at the moment.
The reason we're here is to expand our Pokedex and team.
<PIKACHU (RB)> - Rating: ***
He's the only one I'll evaluate here, since the other Pokemon you can catch
have been evaluated before or are just evolutions. Pikachu is a speedy Electric
type and well worth your time, though he won't be much help in the next Gym. It
evolves in Red and Blue, so can become quite powerful with the right TMs. It
really helps out against Water types, especially if you lack a Grass type. I
grabbed one.
Red/Blue players will want a Pikachu, Yellow players and those with Charmander
will want Caterpie so that you can get a Butterfree for the next gym (you could
catch Metapod to evolve too, but it has no attacking moves). Everything else is
filler.
Your starter should reach about L10 at this point, which is good. Once you've
caught whatever you want, head back out the way you came. Just go south into
Viridian City, heal up and then take the west exit to Route 22.

[ ] Spearow [ ] Nidoran F (RB) [ ] Nidoran M (RB) [ ] Mankey (Y)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 9
Follow the path left, then around and into the grass. Don't exit out of the
other side of the grassy patch or your Rival will challenge you to another
battle. Start catching the stuff as outlined for you above:
<SPEAROW> - Rating: ****
A much more worthy Flying type than Pidgey and will really help out in Viridian
Forest if you don't have Charmander. I'd grab one. It's a great option on your
team instead of a Fire type, since both types can nail Grass and Bug types, and
has nice Attack and Speed stats.
<MANKEY (Y)> - Rating: ***
The other option for Yellow players is Mankey, a decent Fighting type Pokemon.
His Low Kick is something to consider as a Fighting move against the next gym
and Normal types such as your Rival's Eevee. He's good for this very early
portion of the game, but, like Butterfree, will become less useful over time
(although Mankey will always remain somewhat useful--Butterfree very quickly
approaches vast realms of suck). Get one if you're dying for a super-effective
attack against Eevee and Rattata.
Red and Blue players might want a spare Nidoran M to trade later on for the
counterpart female version. The trade is useless really, but necessary for a
perfect game file if you're into that kinda thing. You must ALSO get an extra
Spearow to trade for a Farfetch'd as well. Yellow players don't have to do
anything. Neato.
Now that you've got everything you might want, it's time to gear up for a
battle against your Rival. You should be around Level 9 with two or three
Pokemon right about now, I would suggest.
___
My Team
I'll be updating you periodically of my progress during my playthrough while
writing this walkthrough, just so you have an idea of levels and type
diversity. This team is nowhere near the best team in the game, but it's fairly
solid at any rate. However, I'd check out section 'L02; 'In-Game (Elite Four)
Teams' for better teammate recommendations--like I said earlier, you can search
for individual Pokemon by using Ctrl+ F and searching for their name in angled
brackets.
Pikachu L 9 ~ ThunderShock, Growl, Tail Whip, Thunder Wave
Metapod L 8 ~ Tackle, String Shot, Harden
Spearow L 7 ~ Peck, Growl
Actually, I'm probably a bit under-levelled here but I got through okay. I'd
say a good team at this point would consist of your starter, a Spearow if you
don't have Charmander, or a Caterpie/Metapod/Butterfree if you do. Grab a
Caterpie if you have Pikachu as a starter, and grab a Pikachu if you are
playing Red or Blue. My Yellow team is outlined above. A Butterfree can be
really handy this early on in the game and will remain useful for a little
while with its status inducing moves.
___
Okay, your Rival is waiting to be beaten in another battle that doesn't need to
be won. Proceed north out of the grass to trigger the battle. Note that the
first Pokemon at the top of a trainer's list--for example below--will always be
sent out first, so plan accordingly ;).

Pidgey and Spearow can both eat a ThunderShock from 'Chu, so send him out
first. Squirtle also bites the dust to ThunderShock, so if that's the case you
have an easy victory. Bulbasaur will croak it to Spearow's Peck. Now the
problem Pokemon remain...
Eevee will fall to a Low Kick from Mankey, but if you don't have one you might
just have to bash it up the old-fashioned way. Same with Charmander, who can't
be harmed super-effectively yet, although he has no Fire moves so you're okay
to send Bulbasaur in. Just mash away and you should emerge victorious.
___
I admit that this battle is a bit unfair and that you'll probably have to grind
on wild Pokemon a bit to win. If you seem to lose too easily, gain some more
levels. Again, in Yellow you can influence how your rival's Eevee evolves!

The guy ahead is the last trainer in the Forest. Woo! Before you engage in
battle, check the square of floor he's looking at for a hidden <POTION>. Again,
this guy has three different lineups:

Keep heading north until you've exited Viridian Forest and you'll emerge in the
northern half of Route 2. There is no change in Pokemon here so unless you're
desperate to train, keep heading north.

[ ] TM34 (Bide)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 12
At the top of the city is the Pewter Museum of Science which costs $50 to check
out and is utterly worthless. You get to see two skeletons. If you want to see
and you're tight, you can save before you go in, look around and then reset for
free admission!
The person on the right of the map won't let you progress until you have the
coveted BoulderBadge, so let's go get it. I had three Pokemon at L11-12 at this
point. This is fine in Yellow, but a bit low to be facing Brock with in Red and
Blue since his levels are slightly higher. Some training in Route 2/Viridian
Forest probably wouldn't hurt us now, would it? In Red and Blue, I would aim
for similar levels to Brock--L12-14. At least get Bulbasaur to learn Vine Whip
(L13) or Squirtle to learn Bubble (L8).
___
My Team
Pikachu L12 ~ ThunderShock, Growl, Thunder Wave, Quick Attack
Butterfree L11 ~ Tackle, String Shot, Harden, Confusion
Spearow L11 ~ Peck, Growl, Leer
In Red/Blue, Butterfree will help since you can use its sleep-inducing move
that it learns pretty soon to help bag yourself an Abra (one of the most
overpowered Pokemon in the game) in just a little while. Psychic coverage
doesn't hurt either, once it learns Confusion.
___
Well, we might as well get started. Stock up on Potions if you want, but you
shouldn't need too many more than what you've picked up so far--especially if
you've nabbed the hidden ones--then head on over to the Gym. It's on the left
side of the map; you have to go north past it and loop around its left side to
get to the entrance.
Pewter City's Gym Leader, Brock, specialises in Rock types. You can skip the
first trainer, but you might as well fight him for the experience.

I thought this was supposed to be a Rock type Gym? Well, whatever. Vine Whip
with Bulbasaur, Bubble with Squirtle (or Water Gun if you have it) and
Confusion with Butterfree. Job done. In Red and Blue, be careful of repeated
Sand-Attacks which will make Sandshrew almost impossible to hit. If this
happens, switch out to a different Pokemon and the accuracy modifiers will be
reset.
___
Okay, well it's time for the big guy himself. Save, then speak to the Pewter
City Gym Leader--Brock!

Stats - HP: 32 Atk: 17 Def: 45 Spc: 14 Spe: 23
~ Tackle, Screech, Bide, Bind
_________________________________________________________
Brock must've cheated to get Bind, as Onix doesn't learn it naturally until
level 15! Or maybe he bred it over in Gold/Silver/Crystal, but whatever, it's
strategy time. Both his Pokemon are quadruple weak to Grass and Water attacks,
so if you have Bulbasaur or Squirtle you're laughing, really.
If you have Charmander or Pikachu, then your best bet is Butterfree. Confusion
isn't super-effective but it will absolutely destroy them both because of their
ridiculously low Special stats. Although it isn't very effective, Charmander's
Ember will do decent damage for the same reason. Pikcahu's Electric attacks
won't damage either of Brock's Pokemon at all and they will take minimal damage
from its Normal attacks, so just avoid using Pikachu for this fight.
Geodude is a piece of cake this way, but Onix is a bit tougher. Higher levelled
and with better moves, it's a bit of a pain. Bind is a move which traps you and
damages continually, and it will have you tearing your hair out, so just switch
if he uses this move or ride it out until it finishes (In RBY, trapping moves
stop you from attacking. In later games, they stop you from switching, so you
CAN switch out in RBY).
He will also use Bide, a move which stores up damage for 2-3 turns and then
unleashes double the damage the Pokemon received back at the opponent. If you
don't think you can waste Onix in two turns after he uses it, stall him out
with non-damaging moves like Growl or Harden. Then when Bide is over, resume
pounding on him.
Basically, exploiting their weaknesses and low Special stats will net you the
win. Also, Brock will use Potions when their health gets low. Solution--drop
them in one hit! Either that, or just ride it out. You'll be fine.
___
After the battle, you receive the BoulderBadge, which increases the Attack stat
of all Pokemon in in-game battles to 9/8ths of its original value. Awesome.
You also get <TM34> (Bide) and the ability to use Flash outside of battle. Oh,
and money. Bide isn't worth teaching and, if you plan on exploiting the
Missingno. Glitch, isn't worth using because once you do, it's gone forever.
Oh, and by the way, the Missingno. glitch allows you to clone an item.
Indefinitely. Good stuff. Only for Red and Blue though.
TM34 is unique, so don't use it up or it'll be gone forever. Save it for the
Missingno. (item duplication) glitch later on, if you want. In fact, most TMs
are like this. Assume all TMs are one-of-a-kind unless I say otherwise.
Now leave the gym, heal up etc. and make sure to buy plenty of Poke Balls (say
10) because we'll be going through some lengthy caves soon with plenty of new
Pokemon in. Couldn't hurt to top up with a handful of Potions and maybe an
Escape Rope or two if you can spare the money. Unfortunately we cannot buy
Repels yet... Time to head to Route 3 which is the east exit out of Pewter
City.

Hmm, a new Pokemon? Jigglypuff will put you to sleep with a 55% accurate Sing,
cripple one of your moves at random with Disable and then proceed to Pound you,
albeit rather weakly. Just use strong moves or Low Kick from Mankey if you have
it.
___
And that's that. Phew! Time to be catching some Pokemon, methinks.
<SANDSHREW> - Rating: ****
Yellow players can grab themselves a Sandshrew, a Ground type that can be very
powerful if you invest some later TMs into it. It learns the horrendously
overpowered Slash at L17, and even gets a very powerful--100 power!--STAB TM in
Dig, making him ridiculously fearsome, but he doesn't do very well against
Special Pokemon and has below average Speed.
<JIGGLYPUFF> - Rating: *
In Red and Blue, you'll instead nab a Jigglypuff, though Blue Players can grab
a Sandshrew shortly. Jiggly is a Sleep inducer which is always nice, but it
only has Sing which has a mere 55% accuracy. Butterfree has Sleep Powder coming
up soon--L17 in Red and Blue and L15 in Yellow--and Sleep Powder is 75%
accurate so it's much better. Jigglypuff can learn quite a few good TMs but
there isn't much reason to give it them, due to it's low stats.
Get them for the Pokedex at least, then continue on and head north into the
west section of Route 4.
_______

New Pokemon
-----------
[ ] Magikarp
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 14
Since we can't get any Pokemon here yet, really, I'll handle the data thingies
once we get out of Mt. Moon. All we really need to know is that there is a Poke
Center here, which should be used and the entrance to Mt. Moon, which will also
be used.
Inside the Poke Center is a man who will sell you a Magikarp for $500. It's
pretty cheap if you're dying to get one now--but there are loads available
later for the cost of a Poke Ball.
<MAGIKARP> - Rating: ***
Magikarp and his evolution don't learn any natural Water moves until late in
the game, so you'll have to stick to TMs. I'd say don't bother yet, though if
you badly need a Gyarados (L20, slow to evolve) then by all means go ahead.
Gyarados itself is very cool, just a bit of a liability right now. I'll remind
you to get one later if you don't want to buy it now. It does have fantastic
stats and learns a great set of TMs, though.
Take the nearby cave entrance at the east to enter the dangerous Mt. Moon. Hope
you stocked up on healing items and Poke Balls like I suggested! A good team at
this point would consist of about three Pokemon at L13-14.

[ ] Clefairy [ ] Zubat [ ] Paras [ ] Geodude
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 14
Start catching stuff as soon as you enter if you want, but note that the rarer
creatures will start appearing with greater frequency on the lower floors,
especially Clefairy. When engaging them, make good use of Thunder Wave from
Pikachu (be aware that it doesn't work on Geodude) and Stun
Spore/PoisonPowder/Sleep Powder from Butterfree to make your prey easier to
capture. Sleep Powder is best, if you have it.
<ZUBAT> - Rating: *
You won't be able to avoid catching a Zubat. You'll soon get tired of seeing
this little sucker (heh, sucker, get it?) because it pops up bloody everywhere.
It is awful in combat so just catch it for the Pokedex. When fighting it, watch
out for confusion from Supersonic--just run if it happens. Zubat is a terrible
Pokemon with terrible typing, terrible moves and average stats. Meh. I'd avoid
it.
<GEODUDE> - Rating: ** (Graveler)
- Rating: *** (Golem)
Geodude is also relatively common here. This is your answer to Normal types if
you have had trouble with them thus far. Geodude and his evolutions are good
because they are Rock/Ground types and hence resist Normal moves. They have
great Attack stats, even better Defense and learn some pretty good moves
naturally (looking at you, Earthquake!). Unfortunately, they have a 4x weakness
to Grass and Water and are hideously slow. They also cannot evolve without
being traded. For now, however, he's a decent choice and you can decide later
on whether to keep him or not.
<CLEFAIRY> - Rating: ***
The other two are much rarer game, but if you happen to bump into Clefairy now
then by all means grab it. Clefairy's stats are sub-par and its level up
movepool is abysmal, so I'd skip it. It also learns a bunch of useful TMs and
HM's... which we don't have yet. Yellow players should catch an extra Clefairy
to trade for a Mr. Mime later on.
<PARAS> - Rating: *
The other semi-rare one is Paras. It has the only access to Spore--a 100% sleep
move--in the entire game. Unfortunately, Spore comes at L27 or L30 if you
evolve it and it just has no other moves that are really that good. 4x Fire,
Poison and Flying weaknesses don't help an already lost cause. Give it a miss
and use something better with Sleep Powder instead.
Well I hope you're ready for Mt. Moon. You have 12 fairly tough trainers to
defeat, but the real challenge is staying sane in the face of so many Zubat. I
really wish Pewter sold Repels.
I'd highly recommend getting a Geodude when you enter. Take it to the Poke
Center, heal it and slot it in your team somewhere. It'll be worth it. Get him
to L16 ASAP to learn Rock Throw. This will waste Bug, Fire, Flying and Ice
types nicely.
Head a bit north from the entrance. When the cave opens up, go west and then
south and grab the item ball with <TM12> (Water Gun) in. This TM is fairly
useless soon enough so you might as well use it. It can help your team deal
with the Geodudes here. Squirtle can learn it as well, but he will at L15
anyway so why bother? Don't use it up if you're saving all unique items for
duplication later on.
If you have a starter and wish to evolve it (not evolving it will make it learn
moves faster, see my Pokedex for full details), get it to L16 now, which should
be possible. Unfortunately, this doesn't apply to Pikachu. In Yellow, he will
never evolve :(.
Head north and west to find another item ball with a <POTION> inside, then
fight the nearby trainer.

Hmm. Make sure it doesn't put you to sleep for five turns and Pound on your ass
like it did to me. This could be quite tough. Hit it with physical attacks such
as Tackle, Rock Throw, Peck or, ideally, Mankey's Low Kick/Nidoran's Double
Kick. Geodude won't be hurt by its attacks but is slow so will be put to sleep
pretty often. Otherwise just put it to sleep with your Butterfree and smack it
around with Confusion. All else failing, just hit it as hard as you can.

If she kicked your ass like she did mine, journey back to the Poke Center. Then

After the battle, head on up the plateau and nab the <HP UP> that sits there.

Pokemon's level by one. Use it now if you wish, but, obviously, the longer you
hold out for it the better, because it's harder to gain levels the higher you
are. Ideally, you use it at L99 to get to L100!
Rare Candies are finite in number, so if you don't save them all or duplicate
them later on through the Missingno. glitch, you're screwed and cannot have any
more.
Head north from this to bump into an <ESCAPE ROPE>, then keep heading north.
When you near the north wall of the cave, turn west to run into another female
trainer.

_________________________________________________________
Zubat can suck on ThunderShock, Rock Throw or Confusion. Switch out if
Supersonic hits. Ekans will start Wrapping which is annoying so switch or ride
it out. Confusion is the most effective move but Butterfree will take super-
effective damage from Poison Sting so it's a toss up. Stick Sleep Powder on it
first and use an Antidote if necessary.
___
After wiping the floor with the Rocket, head up the plateau to the north for
<TM01> (Mega Punch). Candidates for this Normal move that's fairly powerful
(about twice as powerful as Quick attack) include Charmander/Charmeleon,
Squirtle/Wartortle, Pikachu, Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Mankey and Geodude. The
latter two are the best candidates because of their high Attack ratings, though
Mankey learns Karate Chop at L15 which, factoring in the Critical Hit ratio, is
more powerful.
Also, if you're TM-tight, don't worry about using up TM01 right now, as you can
buy a replacement (or multiple replacements) from Celadon Department Store
later in the game. Or use the Missingno. glitch, whatever. So yeah, use it up
by all means.
South and to the east of this plateau where you found TM01 is a strange rock
that's hiding an <ETHER>, an item that restores 10PP to any move of any
Pokemon. You can't buy them in stores, so use them only when desperate because
they are of limited stock.
Head back down the ladder and all the way back to the top floor. Use the Poke
Center if you want to, because we're pressing through this cave rapidly now. To
get there quickly, consider using an Escape Rope. After that (or if you didn't
go), continue south on this top floor again and encounter your next trainer.

Water Gun, Vine Whip, perhaps Low Kick/Double Kick--otherwise Confusion with

___
After the battle, take the <MOON STONE> in the top left corner. Moon Stones are
finite, so save one for duplication if you're in Red and Blue.
Four Pokemon can evolve via Moon Stone and you could, theoretically, own them
all now.
Nidoran F --> Nidorina (L16) --> Nidoqueen (Moon Stone)
Nidoran M --> Nidorino (L16) --> Nidoking (Moon Stone)
Clefairy --> Clefable (Moon Stone)
Jigglypuff --> Wigglytuff (Moon Stone)
Be warned that Pokemon that evolve via Stones generally stop learning moves via
level up, so check in my Pokedex whether evolving them now is a good idea.
Probably not. If you have been training a Nidoran, evolving it now would give
you a powerful Pokemon that will unfortunately rely on TMs for good moves.
Take the nearby ladder above the Hiker and follow the pathway to another
ladder. When you emerge on the other end, go north, east, then south down some
stairs to encounter another Rocket.

_________________________________________________________
In Red/Blue, this Raticate will be the hardest thing you've faced. Geodude is
your best bet here--his high Defense and his Normal resistance will come in
very handy against Hyper Fang, which will utterly screw anything else you have
at this point. Rock Throw it as much as you can and Tackle if things get
desperate. All else you can do is Low Kick perhaps or just strong attacks. On a
side note, how do you get a L16 Raticate? L20 is when Rattata evolves...
Yellow players have an easier time just using Geodude on Rattata and doing what
they do best to Zubat.
___
Ascend the other stairs and loop around in a large squareish thing. Just
continue along this path and fend off about 50 billion wild Zubat. Red/Blue
players will eventually encounter another trainer. Yellow players get to skip
this one.

Push on past the (perhaps nonexistent) Rocket. After ascending a set of stairs,
go to the east down a thin corridor to examine the white panel at the end for a

Confusion is all we have against the Poison types, otherwise your strongest
attacks will probably be rolling out from Geodude. In fact, Geodude can ace
this whole thing--just be careful of Grimer disabling Rock Throw, or running
out of PP or getting poisoned by Smog. If you do use Butterfree to confuse,
Smog will be super-effective, so be careful.
___
Use Antidotes if necessary. Afterwards, you get to pick either the <DOME
FOSSIL> or the <HELIX FOSSIL>. The former can be traded in for a Kabuto and the
latter for an Omanyte, both Water/Rock Pokemon. Check the Dex for full info.
Kabuto and his evolution are probably slightly better and about a billion times
cooler looking. You can get the other from a glitch anyway. But, that's a long
way away, so pick one, abandon the other and continue up the stairs and head
west.
For Red/Blue players, victory is in sight since there are no more trainer
battles. Just follow the linear path outta here. For Yellow players however...

Yep, that's Jessie and James from the Anime show. They don't really do anything
special in this game other than pop up and annoy you from time to time. You'll
have to be weary if you've taken a beating, since their levels are decently
high. Confusion is all the super effectiveness we have against the Poison types
at the moment and Geodude can lay the smackdown on all three of these guys as
well, since he resists their moves. Mankey doesn't do badly against Meowth,
either.
___
Now, if you hang about a bit, this floor has the highest chance of encountering
a Clefairy if you have been unfortunate enough not to come across one yet. If
you want it for the Dex (or even for your team), stick around and grab it.
Remember to grab an extra one to trade for a Mr. Mime later on in Yellow, like
I mentioned earlier. Paras is more common here too.
Okay, we're all done now, I promise. Head down the ladder and follow the little
path to another ladder to be free of Mt. Moon forever! Yes!

Your Pokemon are probably exhausted from Mt. Moon. One of mine (Pikachu) was
fainted and all the others were in poor condition too. Thankfully, no trainers
lie between you and the next Poke Center in Cerulean City. Make sure you've
done everything you want to up to this point, because once we cross to
Cerulean, there ain't no going back for a while.
Start heading east and ascend the first plateau you encounter, sniffing around
for a hidden <GREAT BALL> on its peak. The position is odd to describe, but
here goes. From the gap in the lower ledge where you can enter the plateau, go
up one tile, right one, up, left and press A to uncover it. (You could find it
in other ways, but I did it this way because I find it difficult to turn on the
spot in this game).
Jump the ledges east and ascend another plateau. Keep ascending and on the
second level is an item ball in plain sight containing <TM04> (Whirlwind). This
is a fairly useless move which scares off wild Pokemon. Great... It too is
unique, so don't sell or use TM04 if you want a perfect treasure list. Save it
for duplication, or something.
After getting the two items, we can root around in the grass to the south for
some new Pokemon. Once you jump over this ledge into the grass you ain't going
back to Pallet/Viridian/Petwer for a while, bub. I would recommend visiting
Cerulean first or, more specifically, Cerulean Poke Center. Once you have done
so, get over here and catch yourself some new Pokemon for Red and Blue. Yellow
owners will find nothing new here.
I've already had a look at Sandshrew, but Blue players now have their first
opportunity to nab one. Again, he's a powerful Pokemon who has access to the
awesome STAB Dig TM very soon.
<EKANS> - Rating: *
Ekans is only available in Red, but it's near useless with mediocre stats and
poor typing in Poison. Honestly, just catch it for Pokedex fodder and nothing
else.
When you're done here, head east into Cerulean City.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 16
If you're wondering where you can fish, strangely enough, you can fish for and
catch Pokemon in Cerulean Gym. First attraction for Yellow players is the
potential addition of Bulbasaur to the team--In the house to the left of the
Poke Center, talk to the girl at the back and she'll hand over a L10 Bulbasaur!
Sweet! If she refuses, it's because Pikachu isn't happy enough. For a quick
fix, try ramming Potions down Pikachu's throat when it's at full health--the
game will say it has no effect, but it will skyrocket Pikachu's happiness. And
you don't even lose the Potions. Do this until the little brat is satisfied and
forks over the Bulbasaur.
<BULBASAUR (Y)> - Rating: ***
A solid grass type at this point in the game, but Bellsprout mostly outclasses
it with early access to Sleep Powder and better offenses, as well as being
available at a higher level.
You might want to take Bulbasaur out for a little Route 4 training session if
you're considering adding it to your team, though the abundance of Spearow will
be off-putting. Do the bait-and-switch technique--switching out a Pokemon so
that it gains half the Exp. when the opponent is defeated.
The second attraction, at least for some, is the addition of Repels to the Poke
Mart, which keep wild Pokemon at bay on the condition that they're lower-
levelled than the first Pokemon in your party. Grab a few, but don't over-rely
on them or you might miss out on too much Exp. and end up weaker than you'd
hoped.
Methinks it is time to nab another hidden item. Head to the Badge Man's house,
just to the northwest of the house where you won your Bulbasaur. In the garden
behind Badge Man's house is a hidden <RARE CANDY>. Yummy. To get its exact
location, start from the top-rightmost corner, then travel down one tile and
left two tiles before pressing A.
You might want to talk to Badge Man himself for Badge info, but it's not very
thrilling. What is a bit more exciting is that we've got a battle against
Rival-boy coming up soon. I'm going to show you my team, but like I said before
this is just a decent guideline, not a set in stone instruction.
___
My Team
Pikachu L17 ~ ThunderShock, Thunder Wave, Quick Attack, Double Team
Butterfree L15 ~ Confusion, PoisonPowder, Stun Spore, Sleep Powder
Spearow L15 ~ Peck, Growl, Leer, Fury Attack
Geodude L16 ~ Tackle, Defense Curl, Rock Throw, Mega Punch
Bulbasaur L10 ~ Tackle, Tail Whip, Leech Seed
Not too shabby at the moment, if I do say so myself. A decent team might run
something along these lines, since I have Electric, Rock, Psychic and Flying
coverage. In Red and Blue you can have a similar team AND your starter. Sweet.
___
Start heading up to Route 24. Get out of Badge Man's house and hang a right,
then take the next available path north for your not-so-long-awaited Rival
battle.

_________________________________________________________
Up first is your Rival's highest level Pokemon--a Flying type. You could
ThunderShock it to death with Pikachu, but Geodude can do a better job with
Rock Throw AND is resistant to both Pidgeotto's and Spearow's moves. Next up in
Red and Blue is Abra, who cannot do anything (Teleport does nothing in Trainer
battles), so use him to get your weakest Pokemon a few good Exp.
In Yellow you get Sandshrew, and you can Vine Whip him into oblivion with your
spanking-new Bulbasaur or just Confusion with Butterfree. Rattata's next up and
is the same as always but with Hyper Fang, a fairly deadly move at this point.
Geodude resists it and it will do laughable damage, so Rock Throw again. Mankey
can also Low Kick it but needs to watch out for Hyper Fang.
Finally, we come to the starters. Charmander drops to Rock Throw from Geodude
and has nothing effective to fire back with, or if you taught Water Gun to
anything it'll fall to that. Keep Geodude away from Squirtle and Bulbasaur
though, because they'll waste him with their 4x super-effective moves! Squirtle
drops to ThunderShock from Pikachu, the only super-effective move we have at
the moment. Bulbasaur falls to Peck from Spearow and Eevee can either face
Geodude with Rock Throw or Mankey with Low Kick. It has no good moves against
Geodude. Watch out for repeated Sand-Attacks that will lower Rock Throw's
already shaky accuracy, though.
___
All things considered, that was fairly easy, right? Drop back down to the Poke
Center in preparation for a journey along Route 24. When you're done, come back
to where you fought your Rival and continue on north.

Fighting types fall to Psychic and Flying type moves, and we have both.
Butterfree works wonders and Spearow is fairly decent too, though he takes
neutral damage from Fighting attacks (Low Kick) whereas Butterfree is 4x
resistant to them.

There is a sixth trainer at the end who will hand over a <NUGGET>--an item
which has no use outside of selling for $5000--and then challenge you to a
fight, revealing the group to be a bunch of Rockets. Funnily enough, you can
fight and lose to this guy many times for multiple Nuggets but at this point
you should be finding it hard to lose. Eventually you'll tire of this (I never
even bothered) so step up and take the Rocket challenge.

Hmph. So much for a challenge. Two L15 Pokemon? Sigh. Confusion for Ekans or
Rock Throw if you fear Poison Sting, and either ThunderShock, Confusion or Rock
Throw for Zu'.
___
And that's that for Nugget Bridge. Well, whatever. Yellow players can get their
Charmander now. Talk to the boy at the top of the hill to get him. Also, next
to him is an item ball with <TM45> (Thunder Wave) inside. TM45 is one-of-a-
kind, so keep hold of it if you want.
<CHARMANDER (Y)> - Rating: ***
Charmander is going to require a fair bit of grinding to fit in with the rest
of your team if you want to use him, so I'd start by roasting some nearby Grass
types, which might prove difficult at such a low level. He can evolve into a
fearsome fighter but there are better options out there. For a major power
boost he can use the useful Dig TM which you'll be getting soon.
Next up, it's Pokemon catching time. Head into the grass to your left--but DO
NOT talk to the trainer here yet.
<ODDISH> - Rating: **
First up is Oddish, available in Red and Yellow. If you didn't pick up a
Butterfree earlier (???) then you might want to consider one for learning Sleep
Powder at L19. Otherwise, don't bother. Pokedex fodder.
<BELLSPROUT> - Rating: ****
The Blue version counterpart is Bellsprout, who is also available in Yellow.
Totally superior to Oddish in every way, it has better stats and learns the
best Grass move--Razor Leaf. It gets Sleep Powder at L18 as well. Grab one if
you're dying for a decent Grass type and don't have Bulbasaur/Ivysaur--it'll
provide some great support for the upcoming gym.
<VENONAT (Y)> - Rating: **
Yellow players are exclusively entitled to a Venonat. Venonat and his evolution
are basically better Butterfrees with higher stats, except it takes a lot
longer to learn the moves like Psybeam. Since we're getting rid of 'Free soon
anyway (well, I am), it's best to give this one a miss.
<ABRA> - Rating: **** (Kadabra)
- Rating: ***** (Alakazam)
Finally we come to Abra, which is about the closest thing to a God Pokemon in
this game if you have the capability to trade. Abra's final evolution,
Alakazam, will tear holes in the opposition. At this point in the game, the
only thing holding Alakazam back from shredding teams apart is the eventual
lack of PP. It has a hideously powerful Special stat (base 135!) and a
fantastic Speed stat (base 120) and comes as early as L16. This thing will
absolutely run circles around the rest of your team for quite a while yet. Yep,
it is game-breakingly strong.
The downsides are that Abra will be a pain to catch because it Teleports away
on its first available turn, without fail. Put it to Sleep to have a much
better chance of catching it. It also learns no attacking moves until it
evolves at L16 and cannot fully evolve without being traded. If you can trade--
get one. If not, get one anyway--one evolution is still very powerful. As of
now it is only available in Red and Blue, but Yellow players can get one very
soon. Red and Blue players should catch a spare Abra to trade for a Mr. Mime
later on.
Basically, grab everything you don't have so far and consider Bellsprout (if
you don't have Bulbasaur) and Abra for your team. Level Abra to L16 for a
powerful Kadabra, then, if you can, trade and trade back with a friend for an
Alakazam, an absolute monstrosity.
In Yellow, if you want to train up Charmander and ditch Spearow, then train on
Oddish, Venonat and Bellsprout, who will all fall to an Ember or two... or
three. Or four. Whatever, as long as they die. If you've still got Spearow,
Peck 'em to death.
After you've trained/caught/whatever, I think it's time for a Box change.
Basically, Pokemon belong to Boxes in your PC, and when one becomes full you
can't catch any more Pokemon. Each Box can hold 20 Pokemon, and you should get
in the habit of changing Boxes just before you hit 20--at about 15 or so. At
the Poke Center, access Someone's PC and change Box, probably to Box 2 or
something. Done and dusted.
Also, you'll probably want to ditch some items, since you can only hold 20 in
your Bag. Deposit items in Your PC for safekeeping. Keep Potions, Poke/Great
Balls, Escape Ropes, Repels and any status recovery items such as Antidotes.
Sell the Nugget.
Whilst you're here, you might as well get some Poke Balls too. Bring the total
up to 10, maybe even 15. More if you're gonna go for Mew, because he's a tricky
******* (whatsit) to catch.
___
The Mew Glitch (Red/Blue only--Yellow can get theirs soon)
What's that? Yes, it's true--through use of an in game glitch, you can obtain
the secret legendary Pokemon, Mew. This is by far the easiest way to get it
(although you can still get one later, if you decide against it now), so
prepare yourself for this entirely optional method for obtaining two Mews.
Yellow players will have to wait for an Abra.
NOTE: I'm pretty sure this won't screw up your save, but it might, so be
warned. I've done it countless times successfully.
Head to Route 24, just above the Nugget Bridge above Cerulean City. Do NOT
fight the trainer hiding in the grass to the left. Now save your game. This
isn't necessary, but recommended. Take careful note of where this trainer is in
the grass and position yourself off-screen such that if you walk down by one
square, he will notice you and challenge you to battle.
Take one step down and simultaneously press Start. You should now be in his
eyesight with the Pause menu displayed. Use Abra to Teleport to Cerulean City,
and you'll notice the guy has the exclamation mark pop up over his head, but
you get lost too quickly for him to catch you. When you arrive in Cerulean
City, your buttons won't work, except movement buttons. This is normal. Enter
Cerulean Gym and battle the Swimmer you see here.
(If you're interested in an instant (cheap) L100 Mew with low stats for a L100
and no natural moves, follow this optional step: Use Growl six times against
his Shellder. Make sure that Growl connects and lowers Shellder's attack six
times)
Waste his Pokemon. They are Horsea and Shellder at L16 and will fall to
Electric and Grass attacks. Leave the Gym and head up Nugget Bridge. The Pause
Menu will display of its own accord, and if you press B now, Mew will appear.
It sounds like a massive hoax, but it works. Mew will be L7 (+/- one level for
each attack modifier on it--If you used Growl six times, the attack modifier
will be -6, making Mew L1).
<MEW>
Mew's a bit broken, in that it possesses the best type in the game, has 100
base stats across the board and can learn every single TM in the game. Yeah,
he's just too powerful to even rank--rest assured it's at least five stars.
It will be a git to catch, but stick with it. Use Sleep-inducing moves if you
have some.
(If you DID make it L1, give it a very low amount of Exp. (less than 54) and it
will skyrocket to L100 due to the way the game's code for Exp. works)
I'd recommend not battling the trainer we scampered from for the entirety of
the game, since he can be used this way to exploit a more advanced version of
this glitch, known as the Ditto Glitch, which allows you to catch ANY Pokemon
on ANY version.
That's all for now. I'll keep you posted as the adventure progresses. Also, I'm
going to write this guide assuming you DON'T have Mew in your main team so that
it's fair to those who don't use the glitch, but you can have him in your team
by all means. Not that you'll need battle strategy with a L100 Mew anyway,
since it learns every TM and HM in the game and will murder EVERYTHING in
sight.
We can get another Mew shortly. I'd use the weaker of the two as a HM slave, if
you want--stick all your HM moves on it later in the game, since it can learn
them all.
___
If you're not interested in the Mew Glitch or the Ditto Glitch, then by all
means fight the trainer in the grass. I keep him free so I can activate the
glitch whenever I want and he's convenient to remember, but if you must fight
him...

Machop is one we haven't come across yet but it's a pure Fighting type, meaning
it falls to Peck from Spearow or Fearow if it's hit L20. Either that or
Confusion from Butterfree, Kadabra (evolve Abra at L16) or Alakazam (evolve
Kadabra by trading). Any of those will waste it with ease. Geodude bites an
aforesaid Confusion, especially from 'Zam, and can otherwise eat Vine Whip from
Bulbasaur/Ivysaur and Bellsprout or a Water Gun from Squirtle/Wartortle.
___
After defeating the Hiker, head north into the gap between the mountainside and
the two trees and examine the north wall for a hidden <ELIXER>. Yes, that is
how it's spelt in this game. You can battle around in the grass now for Pokemon
if you want, but they're essentially the same as Route 24, so maybe not. A bit
to the south and then east is another Hiker.

_________________________________________________________
Okay. Machop shouldn't be too much of a problem if you Confusion him, just make
sure it kills him because Kadabra/Alakazam and Butterfree cannot afford to be
hit by a critical hit Karate Chop. It's Drowzee that's the difficult one:
Disable makes one of your moves unusable for a set time, Pound is nothing to
worry about, Hypnosis will put you to sleep and you've seen the devastating
effects of Confusion. Just use a high level Pokemon with strong moves because
there's nowt that's super-effective against Psychics in RBY (nothing good,
anyway).
If your starter is a high level, use him (unless it's Ivysaur, who is weak to
Confusion). Geodude is slow and will be hit hard by Confusion and crippled by
Hypnosis, Butterfree won't be doing much with a not very effective Confusion
and neither will Kadabra and co. So, use Pikachu, Charmeleon or Wartortle to
bring home the bacon, as long as they're up to par level-wise. If they get put
to sleep, either wait it out and get wailed on by his attacks, or switch out to
another capable team member, such as Fearow, potentially. Good luck--this is
your first taste of the power of Psychic types in this game.
___
Once you beat him, he'll flee and leave you with <TM28> (Dig) in his haste. Dig
is a powerful two-turn Ground move that works against the shoddy AI but won't
serve you too well in competitive matches. Candidates include Sandshrew (if you
have one), Geodude (but he learns Earthquake which is much better), Squirtle
(probably unnecessary, but whatever) and Charmeleon (but he doesn't get STAB).
Oh, and it gets you out of dungeons, just like an Escape Rope. So, give it to
whoever you want. It's a unique item though, so it'll be gone forever if you
use it up now.
Red/Blue players can take on Misty now, as can Yellow players if they want, but
I'm going to run through getting an Abra and a Mew, just for Yellow players,
okay? Actually, Misty could be fought as soon as you reached Cerulean, but I
thought that you'd want to train up a bit beforehand, since her Starmie is
murderous.
Time to head to Route 5 for your Abra, Yellow players. Red and Blue players
might as well tag along for the ride to grab a new Pokemon too. From where you
are after having battled the Rocket, head east some ways and then down between
the two houses to end up next to the gym. The path to the right leads to Route
9, but we can't go that way yet. Head south down the east path--i.e. don't jump
over the ledge on the left or you'll have to circle around this way again. Head
south and follow the path round to the west until you reach downward ledge.
Jump over that to get to the grassy sections of Route 5.

[ ] Jigglypuff (Y) [ ] Mankey (R) [ ] Meowth (B) [ ] Abra (Y)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 18
Yellow players, mope around in the grass and catch yourself an Abra. Sleep
Powder it or you'll lose it. You should also nab a Jigglypuff. Red and Blue
players get a version exclusive here:
<MANKEY (RB)> - Rating: **
Mankey in Red. A decent fighter but not amazing compared to other Pokemon.
Learns Dig by TM and gets some decent physical TMs later on, but evolves late
and doesn't have great moves for the moment.
<MEOWTH> - Rating: ***
Meowth in Blue. A great competitive battler with the right move investment,
much like Sandshrew, but we don't have too many TMs and its primary move,
Slash, doesn't arrive until L44. Learns some good TMs later though.
Okay Yellow players--now that you have an Abra, you're free to get two Mews.
Follow the steps above--the trainers to remember are the Swimmer in Cerulean
Gym and the Slowpoke kid on Route 25. Get started. Once you're done, head back
to Cerulean.

[ ] TM11 (BubbleBeam)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 19
Okay, time to get to work on what I've put off for so long. Once you're done
here, you'll have to ledge-hop all the way down and then trudge around all the
way back up to Cerulean to face the next Gym leader. Let's do it. Rest up via
the Poke Center, then head to the Gym. Misty is just round the corner so it's
time for another team evaluation I think.
___
My Team
Pikachu L21 ~ ThunderShock, Thunder Wave, Quick Attack, Slam
Butterfree L16 ~ Confusion, PoisonPowder, Stun Spore, Sleep Powder
Fearow L20 ~ Peck, Growl, Leer, Fury Attack
Geodude L18 ~ Tackle, Defense Curl, Rock Throw, Mega Punch
Ivysaur L16 ~ Tackle, Growl, Leech Seed, Vine Whip
Alakazam L16 ~ Teleport, Confusion
You'll probably want your Grass Pokemon a bit higher levelled to battle Misty's
Starmie, since Grass is the only thing we have which resists Water (besides
Water itself). Pikachu would also be better off at a higher level--it doesn't
resist Water moves so it'll bite the dust quicker. If you can't get Ivysaur,
I'd highly recommend a Weepinbell, Bellsprout's evolution. Sleep Powder and
Vine Whip should work well against Starmie.
Basically, we need a good Grass type and a decent backup Electric type. For
those without a Grass type, you'll have to make do with what you've got and
plonk a few extra levels on top.
___
Head into Cerulean Gym.
Misty's Gym is based on Water Pokemon, so make sure you're packing good
Electric and Grass types, namely Pikachu for the former and Ivysaur/Weepinbell
for the latter.
The first trainer you'll encounter here is a Swimmer, though if you did the Mew
Glitch on him you won't have to face him, obviously. You can avoid him if you
want, but why bother? Just think about that yummy delicious Exp. Hmmm... Exp...

It has no Water attacks and one Flying attack, so pass on the Grass Pokemon and
use Pikachu instead, who resists Flying moves. ThunderShock, ThunderShock.
Supersonic, if it hits, will annoy you with confusion status, so perhaps switch
out if this happens to Geodude or something that also resists Peck.
___
Okay, head back to the Poke Center and perhaps grab some Potions because Misty
is no joke. Be sure to save beforehand.

Stats - HP: 59 Atk: 40 Def: 44 Spc: 50 Spe: 56
~ Tackle, Water Gun, Harden, BubbleBeam
_________________________________________________________
Staryu's not even worth talking about--if you have trouble with that, then
Starmie will absolutely demolish your team. It's a ferocious Special attacker
with fearsome Speed, a tough set of Water moves, and to top that all off, Misty
will pump it with X Defend and it will use Harden on itself.
Advice: Don't bring out your best Pokemon against Staryu. Any amount of
weakening done to your best Pokemon lowers its chances of being able to take on
Starmie. I assume you're using Ivysaur/Weepinbell to take on Starmie, so
Pikachu will do fine against Staryu.
Good, now that that's out of the way we can focus on the main attraction. If
you have Weepinbell, you're set--Sleep Powder + Vine Whip = win. Ivysaur will
do just as well, though it can't put things to sleep (yet). You might want to
keep ThunderShocking with Pikachu until Pikachu dies, just to soften Starmie up
for a major beat down by your Grass type (that's what I did). Red players with
Wartortle or Charmeleon are going to have the hardest time without any decent
Grass Pokemon. The best I can advise is to use Sleep Powder with Butterfree and
then Shock with Pikachu, switching back when it wakes up. If you can't win this
way, gain a few levels and come back. That's all there is.
___
Yummy rewards in store include the CascadeBadge, <TM11> (BubbleBeam) and some
money. The CascadeBadge gives you the power to control traded Pokemon at L30
and under (previously the cap was L10) and the ability to use Cut outside of
battle. Neat. BubbleBeam is worth teaching to your Water Pokemon if you want to
use it up now and not wait for the Missingno. Glitch. So, if you want, teach
away.
Okay, time to move on. Heal up at the Poke Center, then head around that
strange wacky way through the burgled house out of Cerulean towards the south
to Route 5 again.
_______
Route 5
_______
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 20
If you decide to ledge hop here down the middle path, you'll pass the Day Care
Center, a place where you can leave one Pokemon for a small fee to gain 1 Exp.
per step you take. Sounds okay and it's fairly cheap, but the Pokemon in here
will automatically delete the fourth move in their list to make way for new
ones and will never evolve until they're out again. Verdict? Only use for weak
Pokemon that need Exp. like Magikarp and keep an eye on their levels very
closely. By the way, the fee is $100 plus $100 for every level the Pokemon
gains, due upon collection of said Pokemon.
Head to the south and enter the little building to the east, because the guards
won't let you through to Saffron City in the big building to the south. In the
small house here are a set of stairs leading to the Underground Path and a girl
here who will offer to trade a Nidoran F for a Nidoran M in Red/Blue, but
that's fairly pointless.
Cubone for Machoke in Yellow is much better as Machoke will evolve upon being
traded into a very power Fighting Pokemon, Machamp. Excellent. I'll remind you
when we get a Cubone. Take the stairs here.

second item is farther down near the bottom. Starting from the tile to the
right of the bottommost stairs, move one tile right and six tiles up. Press A
to uncover your very own <X SPECIAL>. That's all here. Take the bottom stairs
to exit the Underground Path. A nice short chapter for me.

Unfortunately, there's nothing new to catch here since the Pokemon in the grass
are EXACTLY the same as on Route 5. How boring. So yes, you've guessed it--
there're a few trainers to smash up before you arrive in Vermilion. Shall we

Oh, crud. Status effects are going to annoy you so much here. Red/Blue players
have to deal with Confusion which doesn't help, whereas Yellow players get
Supersonic instead which is equally annoying, although if you play smart it
can't kill you. Thankfully, we have lots to throw at it--Ember, Peck,
ThunderShock and especially Rock Throw deal massive damage, so take your pick.
Expect to sacrifice at least one Pokemon to a crippling status effect like
sleep or paralysis. Just throw your fastest and most powerful moves Pokemon at
it and you should emerge victorious. If your Butterfree or Weepinbell is
faster, put it to Sleep and hammer away.

First order of business is, as always, the Poke Center. Heal up and whatever,
then poke your head into the house next door on the left. Agree with the old
coot that fishing is swell and nab yourself the mighty <OLD ROD>, capable of
catching many a Magikarp. If you didn't buy one earlier, why not try it out now
in the city and grab yourself one?
Below the Poke Center and are two houses. The one on the left is the Pokemon
Fan Club. Talk to the leader to hear him drone on about Rapidash and receive a
<BIKE VOUCHER>. If you want, head to Cerulean and grab it now--but trust me,
it's not worth the trek yet since we'll be going past it later. I'll remind you
about it in due time.
In Red and Blue only, the house on the right contains a little girl in search
of Spearow, which she will trade for a Farfetch'd. It's well worth it since
this is the only one in the game.
<FARFETCH'D> - Rating: *
They're terrible Pokemon which I would seriously advise not using, but you get
one step closer to finishing your Pokedex. Though it does make a useful HM
slave with Cut and Fly.
Might as well check out the Poke Mart and stock up on the brand new Super
Potion, which heals 50HP at a whopping $700 a pop. Err... maybe not. Get a few
for emergencies, but I find them too expensive to warrant buying too many.
The gym is unreachable at the moment so don't worry about it just yet. And
that's all for Vermilion, at the moment. We have to do the S.S. Anne to advance
the story but before we do I'm sure you wouldn't mind obtaining a few extra
Pokemon and wailing on some trainers, would you? Thought so. Head east out of
Vermilion City and enter the cave to the north that you stumble across.

[ ] Diglett ( ) Dugtrio
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 21
It is worth saving repeatedly as you trek through this dangerous cave, as a
random encounter with Dugtrio will likely be the end of you at this point. It's
too fast to run from and too high-levelled to beat. You might think it is a
wise idea to use Repels. Wrong. Repels keep Pokemon lower-levelled than your
first party member at bay. Since you probably have nothing over L31, if you use
a Repel all you'll be seeing is Dugtrio. Not good.
<DIGLETT> - Rating: *****
Catch yourself a Diglett or even a Dugtrio if you've got the guts. Diglett is
lightning fast and scores critical hits like there's no tomorrow, but his
defenses are paper thin. Pretty much the opposite to Golem. He gets Dig
naturally--so you can save the TM for something else--and a powerful Slash
attack from a respectable base 80 Attack. He'll absolutely obliterate the next
Gym and if you can catch him as a Dugtrio he'll surely be the best Pokemon on
your team.
This cave is a fantastic training area; just be wary of Dugtrio. You'll get
about 200 Exp. a pop from each Diglett and 600 or so from a Dugtrio. When
you're all done, go back out of the cave and head even farther east into a new
Route.

Okay, we're on Route 11. 'Any new Pokemon, Zerokid?' I hear you ask. Funny you
should mention that. For Red and Blue players, a Spearow can be found and
traded for the only Farfetch'd in the game if you haven't done so already.
<DROWZEE> - Rating: ****
The only new Pokemon here is Drowzee, a strong Psychic type. Not quite as
powerful as Alakazam but not anywhere near as fragile either. To cut to the
chase, the evolution, Hypno, is a much slower and slightly weaker version of
Alakazam, but it has below average defenses as opposed to simply awful ones. If
you can't get Alakazam (because of trading issues), consider a Hypno, as
Kadabra's frail defences might leave you wanting.
The first trainer you come across by taking the pathway itches for a fight.

Try to avoid SonicBoom if possible because 20HP in one hit is fairly hefty at

Dig from Diglett or anyone else will destory it, otherwise something like Rock
Throw from Geodude should do the trick.

Dig is crying out to be used here. Again, watch out for SonicBoom from the
illegal Magneton (shouldn't evolve until L30) and it also carries ThunderShock
so keep Wartortle and Fearow at bay. Geodude and Dugtrio are immune to it
because they are Ground types.

Low Kick, on the off chance that you have it, otherwise use Geodude to resist

___
The rock just above the Lookout Station houses a hidden <ESCAPE ROPE>, so grab
it. Now, if you've been catching everything I've mentioned so far, you should
be close to having 30 full entries in your Pokedex. I was just under at 28. If
this is the case, evolve something like Weedle twice (final form Beedrill comes
at L10) or something useless to fill out your Dex. If you then proceed to the
Lookout Station and head upstairs, you can speak to Prof. Oak's Aide and
receive the <ITEMFINDER>. When activated, it bleeps if hidden items are nearby.
It's useless with this guide at your side, though...
Also up here is a boy who will trade Nidorina for Nidorino in Red and Blue and
Dugtrio for Lickitung in Yellow. Both pointless trades, really. You could have
trained up a Nidoran M if you wanted to evolve it, but I figured we might as
well catch one a bit later and not waste time training an extra Pokemon now.
I'll remind you to snag a Nidorino and come back here later on, 'kay? Likewise
for Yellow players who won't have a Lickitung yet--I'll tell you when to come
back.
Exit the guardhouse to the right to briefly enter Route 12.
________
Route 12
________
New Items
---------
[ ] Hyper Potion (H)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 22
Examine the second south tree that's sticking out into the main path for a
hidden <HYPER POTION>. This is about as much as we can do, so head back to
Vermilion City. Get yourself to the Poke Center and heal up if you want (you
might also want to deposit some items in the PC, since the S.S. Anne has quite
a few), but ultimately you'll want to board the S.S. Anne to the south of the
city.
_________________________________________________
[21] S.S. Anne
_________________________________________________
New Items
---------
[ ] Max Potion [ ] Ether [ ] TM44 (Rest) [ ] Hyper Potion (H)
[ ] TM08 (Body Slam) [ ] Great Ball (H) [ ] Max Ether [ ] Rare Candy
[ ] HM01 (Cut)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 22
This is the S.S. Anne. Yup, you've guessed it--another bunch of trainers in
what is essentially a thinly-disguised dungeon without any Pokemon to catch. Oh
joy. Might as well get started. If you need to heal on the S.S. Anne, you can
head to Vermilion Poke Center. However, once you have received HM01 (Cut) from
the captain, the ship will depart as soon as you leave it so you CANNOT heal
using the Poke Center after obtaining this item! This guide gets the HM01 after
defeating all the trainers so if you follow the guide you'll be okay.
Head south from the entrance and take the east path at the crossroads. Take the
first door you come across (looks like an indent in the south wall) to
challenge a trainer.

Two Growlithes. They fall to Water attacks from Wartortle, Rock attacks from
Geodude (should be approaching L25 by now, enough to be a Graveler--a Golem if
you trade!) and Dig from Diglett or anyone who else who has it via TM. Physical
attackers such as Dugtrio should be careful of getting a Burn, as it hampers
your attacking prowess by quite a bit.
___
After the fight, head east along the corridor, following it and taking the
stairs at the end. Take the first door you see and take the item ball
containing a <MAX POTION>.The next door along contains two Sailors. The one on
the left first:

ThunderShock or Vine Whip make quick work of it. Pikachu's noticeably lagging
behind in power here. Red/Blue players can evolve it soon enough, but Yellow
players might want to consider either ditching it or taking it on a massive
training session. Hold on to it for now though.

Either ThunderShock, Confusion or Dig for Tentacool, followed by Vine Whip

___
For sucking so bad, you are allowed to steal their <TM44> (Rest). A great move
for defensive Pokemon that heals their health to full and rids them of any
status ailments at the cost of two turns of Sleep. You have a few Pokemon that
could use it now (if not all of them) but since they're probably all offensive
Pokemon, you're better off saving it. The last room on your left has some more
people to fight.

Pidgey falls to ThunderShock but deals fairly hefty damage to 'Chu so you can
use Graveler/Golem to lay the smackdown on it and resist all its moves. Yeah.
Nidoran F gets crippled by Confusion or Dig.
___
After defeating these two bozos, pick up <TM08> (Body Slam), a powerful Normal
type move with a 30% chance of paralysis. Sweet. Very good for all physical
attackers, especially Normal types. If you're cloning with Missingno. later on,
then don't waste it now. Unless you're saving it for any reason, a good choice
now would be Golem if you have one. The paralysis chance helps him with his low
Speed.
Okay, back out on the main deck there's nothing more for you here, so head down
the west side of the ship, avoiding the stairs here and entering the doorway at
the bottom to emerge in the kitchen. Examine the lowest bin on the right hand
side for a hidden <GREAT BALL>, a ball providing 1.5x as much success as a Poke
Ball. Good stuff. Exit the kitchen.
I used the Poke Center at this point (Kadabra/Alakazam can teleport you after
you get outside). Once you're done, if you decide to go, take the stairs to the
north that I told you to ignore earlier. Then head south and take the stairs
here, too.
This hallway contains nothing of importance so just head to the end to emerge
on the outer deck of the ship, where two Sailors await battle. The first one is
right in front of you as you emerge:

the shellfish. Switch out in case of Supersonic actually hitting.
___
Well that was fun. Head back through the hallway and emerge through the stairs
at the opposite end. The first door to your right contains a bloke who will
give you 'Seen' data about Snorlax for your Pokedex, but it's not essential as
you can catch one (or two) later in the game anyway. The next room on your
right has two trainers.

Pikachu is basically shut down by Ground types so Golem or Dugtrio (whatever)
will render it useless. Yellow players will find it harder--Golem will resist
their attacks but SonicBoom and especially Self-Destruct will hurt a LOT. Just
be careful, save and reset if things don't go as planned.
___
Take their <MAX ETHER> and leave. Don't ever sell or use up your stock of Max
Ethers or they'll be gone forever.
Ignore the next room. The room after contains two more trainers. Like before,
you have to manoeuvre yourself into a position whereby you don't have to fight
both trainers with your top Pokemon, so step one to the left and one to the
north to avoid this.

Rattata doesn't like Fighting moves (if you bothered to include any) or
Graveler/Golem's bulky resistances. Pikachu is totally neutered by
Golem/Dugtrio, and Jigglypuff will annoy the **** (snot) out of you with Sing.
Take it out ASAP with either Fighting moves or just powerful Pokemon.
___
Nab the <RARE CANDY> here but probably don't use it yet. Head outside and
continue to the right because there are no more trainers here. As you head
upwards to the captain's room, your Rival will appear... And I'm going to show
you my team, as always.
___
My Team
Pikachu L21 ~ ThunderShock, Thunder Wave, Quick Attack, Slam
Butterfree L16 ~ Confusion, PoisonPowder, Stun Spore, Sleep Powder
Fearow L20 ~ Peck, Growl, Leer, Fury Attack
Golem L25 ~ Tackle, Rock Throw, Mega Punch, Selfdestruct
Ivysaur L22 ~ Tackle, Leech Seed, Vine Whip, PoisonPowder
Alakazam L25 ~ Teleport, Confusion, Disable
My main attackers are far and away Golem and Alakazam. Golem is a slow,
powerful physical core, whereas Alakazam takes care of the special side of
things. If Golem has Dig, his coverage is even better, and with Body Slam
you're just going for overkill. But this doesn't have to be the case--he's
powerful enough with Rock Throw. Golem has to be L25 to have evolved, but
Alakazam need not be this high.
Everything else is mostly for coverage, and Butterfree is just filler now that
Alakazam is here. It's mostly for Sleep Powder to help catch stuff. If you
can't trade, then Hypno and Dugtrio are solid but inferior choices to Alakazam
and Golem respectively, though the pre-evolutions Kadabra and Graveler are also
good choices. Make up your mind...

sky-high in comparison. First, Red and Blue. Pidgeotto gets dropped by Rock
Throw and Raticate can't handle Golem either. Kadabra now has Confusion and is
weak to nothing, really, so hit him hard with something like your starter (as
long as it's not Ivysaur) or Fearow or something. He'll drop to physical
attacks. Finally, his starter. Ivysaur hates Peck and Confusion, Charmeleon
hates Water Gun/BubbleBeam, Rock Throw and Dig, and Wartortle hates
ThunderShock and Vine Whip (you're better off with the latter). Remember to use
Butterfree/Weepinbell's Sleep Powder for a cheap way of winning if you can't
hack it through traditional beat down methods.
Yellow is even easier, if possible. Spearow falls to ThunderShock or, like
Eevee and Rattata, can face Golem for a quick and easy victory on your behalf.
Sandshrew bites the dust (or sand) to Water and Grass attacks, but beware of
critical hits from Slash which will put a dent in your Pokemon. And that's all
there is really. Victory is yours. Again, Sleep Powder can save the day if you
get your knickers in a twist.
___
After the fight, head north and then take the stairs to the captain's quarters.
Speak to him and rub his back (eww) for the elusive and magical <HM01> (Cut).
HM's differ to TMs in that they can be used more than once. They all have field
effects as well, whereas TMs mostly don't except for a select few. You will
need to teach someone Cut to complete the storyline, but it's an awful battling
move so wait until we get out of the S.S. Anne and teach it to someone like
Oddish or something useless like that. Oh, and HM's can never be forgotten
(unless you trade to Gold/Silver/Crystal, but enough about that), so make sure
it IS something useless that you put it on.
Cut cuts down certain cactus-looking trees in the field and can also be used to
cut patches of grass so that you don't have to fight wild Pokemon there. Sweet.
Everything grows back when you move into another area though. We're done here
on the S.S. Anne now. Backtrack to the entrance. As soon as you leave, the S.S.
Anne will depart. Such a shame--not.
Go heal up and stuff. If you want to get yourself a Mr. Mime and the HM for
Flash (neither of which is necessary, but the latter is INCREDIBLY useful),
it'll take a bit of side tracking. Whilst at the Poke Center, Red/Blue players
will want to take out their spare Abra and Yellow players their Clefairy to
swap for said Mr. Mime. Ooh, exciting. If you need to deposit something,
deposit Butterfree or Pikachu. I know he lets out a whine in Yellow and you
might not want to, but he is fairly useless for this bit.
Oh, and you need to take out someone who knows the HM Cut. Oddish is a prime
candidate for teaching, as is your spare Mew if you caught two. Mew is a great
HM slave! Either way, while you're here you might as well deposit all useless
items or items that you're not going to use in the PC, such as the S.S. Ticket,
Rare Candies, HM01 and any unused TMs etc. They take up valuable item space
(you can only hold up to 20 at one time).
Remember Diglett's Cave off Route 11 to the east? After healing up, please head
on over there. Dugtrio is still as deadly as ever, so I'd encourage saving very
often, so that you don't have to backtrack too far if one screws you over.
Don't use any Repels; just follow the very linear path right to the end.

Yeah, of all the places, we end up back at Route 2, right outside Pewter City.
Coolio. Once you emerge, you can head west and cut the tree here to go to
Pewter City. At the north point of the city is the museum, and now, armed with
Cut, you can hack your way into the secret entrance on the right-hand side of
the museum. Inside, talk to the guy for a well-deserved <OLD AMBER>. We can't
do much with it yet, but I will, in due time, let you know when it becomes
useful.
Head back to where you exited Diglett's Cave and head south into the first
house you see. The person at the top in this house will trade you a Mr. Mime
for your Clefairy (Yellow) or Abra (Red and Blue).
<MR. MIME> - Rating: ***
Mimey is a thoroughly average Psychic Pokemon which isn't in the same league as
Hypno or Alakazam, though it is faster than the former. Not really worth the
effort, and he doesn't even have the decency to evolve into something cool. He
does, however, get boosted EXP. and has decent stats to run with. But he's a
creepy clown, so... I don't like it.
Head south into the Lookout Station and speak to the scientist here. This is
another of Oak's Aides and he will give you <HM05> (Flash) if you've collected
10 Pokemon, which I sincerely hope you have. Flash isn't necessary for game
completion but very helpful for dark caves and such, otherwise you can't see
where you're going.
Head south through the Station and pick up the two items out in the field here,
a <HP UP> and a <MOON STONE>. You can cut the trees here to get back to
Viridian City, which I recommend doing for one thing. Head to the Poke Center
in Viridian and then go straight left. You'll encounter a pond with a Cut tree
above it. Cut the tree and talk to the weirdo in this enclosed area for <TM42>
(Dream Eater), before heading back through Diglett's Cave to Vermilion City.

really changed... so go into the Gym and start with the Sailor on the left.

Now that all the preliminary warm-ups are outta here, we have to tackle this
Gym's rather annoying electric lock puzzle. Essentially, the rubbish bins here
contain two electric locks. Only one will appear at first, and when you find it
another one will appear in a random adjacent bin (one square across from it
horizontally or vertically). If you don't guess the second one correctly, the
first one resets, thus disappearing and making you try again. Once you've
opened the first lock, the second appears in ANY adjacent slot, even if you've
already checked it! So it's just a guessing game and you'll get it right in the
end. Once the door is open, it's time to fight. Remember to save beforehand.

_________________________________________________________
Lt. Surge uses X Speed on his already fast Pokemon to crank their Speed up to
ridiculous levels. Since Golem is about a billion times slower anyway, Lt.
Surge essentially just wastes turns. If you do have a full health Golem, you
don't really need much strategy. If your Golem has Dig, even better. In Red and
Blue, once the SonicBoomer is down, nothing can stop you. Quick Attack is
laughable and the Electric moves will do nothing to you. Dugtrio also does
fairly well with STAB super-effective attacks and immunity to Electric, but
repeated Quick Attacks/SonicBooms/Mega Punches/Kicks will wear it down
eventually. No need to even fear Raichu's level--I had a L26 Golem which took
16HP damage from a critical hit Mega Kick. Golem's Defense is just so fantastic
so there's no need to worry.
Now, that's the Ground types sorted--you won't need much strategy with them as
Lt. Surge can't scratch you. If you have no Ground types, Grass types resist
Electric attacks somewhat and can try to beat them up with Vine Whip. Sleep
Powder is always a cheap option, though a miss can be very costly for
Butterfree if you get hit by Thunderbolt! Try to be careful of Pikachu's
paralysis in RBY and keep these guys away: Water types will get killed and so
will fliers while everything else will either be neutral or resist it. I guess
if you have no Ground types you should just pound on it with anything but
Electric and Flying attacks. You'll pull through in the end.
___
For your valiant efforts, Lt. Surge awards you the ThunderBadge. Not only are
you now allowed to use the HM Fly out of battle effects (more on that later),
but all your Pokemon's Speed stats are invisibly increased to 9/8ths of the
original value for in-game battles. Nifty.
You also get some cash and <TM24> (Thunderbolt), a fantastic Electric move.
With 100% accuracy and 95 base power, it's the most reliable Electric move in
the game (as opposed to a 70% accurate Thunder with 120 base power) and will
serve you very well. Yellow players' Pikachus will get it at L26 anyway though
and I'm not sure you should use it on something like Pikachu in Red and Blue.
Save it for Zapdos or another worthy Electric type like Jolteon.
Well, we're done here. Yellow players should talk to the female police officer
in the centre of town for a free L10 Squirtle!
<SQUIRTLE (Y)> - Rating: ***
Neat, though it's probably too low-levelled to consider making part of your
team unless you are very dedicated. Still, Water types are very solid and
Blastoise has some very well-rounded stats. Give him the BubbleBeam TM for
Cerulean and take him east to Diglett Cave for some quick training, if you
want.
Now return to Cerulean City, through Route 6, the Underground Path and Route 5.
When heading through grassy routes remember that you can Cut grass to avoid
wild Pokemon.

When you arrive in Cerulean, head to the Bicycle Shop at the southwest of the

nonessential items in the game--it speeds up travelling time! Put it at the top
of your item list (use Select to switch items slots around) because you'll want
it there. While you're here, you might as well deposit all items and junk in
the PC too, and buy a few Poke Balls because we'll be traversing another cave
system soon.
Keep a Cut user in your party for the road ahead. Now head to the east section
of the city. From the Poke Center, go west, north through the tiny ledge, east,
through the house that has been burgled and then east towards a cut-able tree.

Status afflictions galore. Use a fast super-effective Pokemon such as Alakazam,
but Hypno or Fearow prove useful as well. Charmeleon is a tad slow and under-
powered because he hasn't evolved yet and will likely get hit by every status
ailment under the sun. Just be careful.
___
Drop down two ledges and collect the item ball here for <TM30> (Teleport). If
you had Abra/Kadabra/Alakazam, you'll know what this move does. Most Psychic
Pokemon can learn it and a few others. It's useless in battle, but teleports
you from the field to the last used Poke Center, which is handy enough. It only
teleports you from OUTSIDE a cave or dungeon, unlike Dig which does the
opposite. So you might need both. Head east and fight the trainer here.

Magnemite is a powerful but slow Electric type with a hideously shallow
movepool, and it only learns ThunderShock naturally in terms of level-up moves
at L25, which is about as good as it gets. No thanks.
<VOLTORB> - Rating: ***
Finally we get to Voltorb, a blisteringly fast Electric type... that gets
horrific moves via level-up (no STAB moves!) and only gets good moves when
given TMs. You'll have to give both of these guys the Thunderbolt TM to see any
use from them.
Yellow players shouldn't fret about getting a Machop straight away, because
they're much more common in Rock Tunnel, which is just around the corner.
Literally. Head down, heal up in the Poke Center if necessary and then head up
around the tree blockade to battle a trainer.

My Rock Throw missed five times in a row here and I still won, so you shouldn't

___
A hidden <SUPER POTION> resides in the tile to the right of the entrance to
Rock Tunnel. You'll need Cut to access it. Also, a hidden <MAX ETHER> lies
inside the tree to the east of the Rock Tunnel exit. Afterwards, heal up at the
Poke Center and bring out something that can use Flash for the caves ahead.
There are 19 trainers to take care of in Rock Tunnel, so get yourself prepared.

Set yourself up with Flash (I taught it to Butterfree) to make your life a lot
easier.
<ONIX> - Rating: *
Knock around for an Onix in Red and Blue (Yellow players must do it on the next
floor)--a thoroughly inferior Pokemon to Golem--and a Machop if you don't have
one. Onix is a terrible Pokemon in every way, his only standout stat being
Defense. Eesh. His offensive power is miserable.
Approach the Pokemaniac at the intersection to the southeast.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 26
Lavender Town is the graveyard of the Pokemon world and there have even been
claims of people getting depressed by the music here (hop on your bicycle if
this is the case for you--that's much more jolly). There's a seven floor
pseudo-dungeon full of ghosts to take care of here, but not yet, so don't hold
your breath. In fact, there's very little to do in Lavender Town for the
moment. Stop numero uno would be the Poke Center of course, since your 'Mons
most likely took quite a thrashing while traversing Rock Tunnel.
Once you're all done there, there are two more mini-attractions to visit. The
first is the Name Rater's house, more commonly known as the nickname changer.
Any Pokemon that has the same Trainer ID as you (everything you've caught, plus
some others if you're incredibly lucky) can have its nickname changed to
whatever you want. He is located in the house to the left of the Poke Mart,
which is the other draw of this town.
Located in the southeast corner of town, the Poke Mart now sells Great Balls,
as you can see from above. They're three times as expensive as regular Poke
Balls but boast a 1.5x capture rate by comparison. In all honesty, I stick to
regular Poke Balls most of the time and just use status conditions (Sleep,
paralysis, etc.) to raise the capture raise that way. I'd still recommend
getting a few (maybe five?) for those really stubborn Pokemon. Oh, and if you
don't have any Poke Balls now, then this is all you can buy from Lavender, so
tough luck.
If you want to bag yourself a fairly useless TM for collection purposes, take
the south road out of Lavender into Route 12.

perform an accuracy check so is guaranteed to hit, even when the opponent is
underground through Dig, for example. Once you've got it, head back to
Lavender. Take a Cut user out of your PC if you want the next Route's wild
Pokemon, then take the west exit.

Route, which will come in handy for the next Gym if you've a spare spot in your
team since the Gym is Grass type. Excellent.
<VULPIX> - Rating: **
<GROWLITHE> - Rating: ***
Growlithe in Red has the coolness factor, which is more often than not the
deciding factor when I build my teams, but in Blue you instead have the
awesomely cool Ninetales--the evolution of Vulpix. Bear in mind that Vulpix
gets Flamethrower at L35 whereas Growlithe gets it at L50! Ninetales also has
better stats where it counts, a faster rate of Exp. gain and access to the
useful Confuse Ray. However, Growlithe can muscle through opponents with his
ridiculously powerful stats across the board, taking advantage of the Dig TM
primarily. They can both evolve with the Fire Stone very soon.
Of course, if you've been raising a Charmander, then you really have no need
for either of these guys, unless one of them really floats your boat. After
that, keep following the path around to the north.

[ ] Eevee
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 27
Unlike Lavender Town, there's a truckload to do in Celadon. First stop (after
the Poke Center, of course) is the Celadon Mansion to bag yourself an Eevee.
Instead of taking the main entrance, though, from the terminus of Route 7 take
an immediate north into a narrow pathway. Follow this path along until there is
a gap in the hedges to the north. Exit through this gap and to your west is
another gap in the trees right behind a building. Walk into the gap here and
into the building to enter through a secret back door. Cool. Once inside, climb
the flights of stairs to the top, take the door to the room below and swipe the
Eevee on the table. Well, finders keepers.
Eevee itself is an interesting Pokemon, evolving into one of three elemental
forms based on which corresponding Stone you give it. You'll either get the
Water based Vaporeon, the Electric Pokemon Jolteon or the Fire beast Flareon.
In terms of usefulness, Jolteon is probably the best, but we can get all three
of them via glitches anyway--or if you can trade to GSC, you can breed for
another Eevee and evolve that one differently. Your choice. All three of them
are cool though. Eevee comes at L25 and you can buy the Stones in just a
second, so slotting it into a gap on your team should be no trouble at all. It
evolves using either a Water, Thunder or Fire Stone, into Vaporeon, Jolteon or
Flareon respectively. Leaf Stone gets no love.
<VAPOREON> - Rating: ****
<JOLTEON> - Rating: ****
<FLAREON> - Rating: **
Vaporeon and Jolteon are great additions, being some of the most powerful and
useful Pokemon of their respective types. I'd definitely get one of these guys,
but I'd avoid Flareon completely, since she's trash.
Now head back out. From the Poke Center, take the path southwest of you. If you
have Cut on you, head east through the gap between the houses and the fencing
and cut the tree here. If you don't have Cut, you'll have to go the long way,
which you can do by heading south, then west, south, east and north immediately
each time. Head north and examine the hedge at the dead end for a <PP UP>,
which increases the maximum PP for a selected Pokemon's move by 20%. They're
limited in number, so save one for duplication.
Now head south past the Cut tree and then take a left. The first building on
the east here has an invisible PC in the top-right corner in Red and Blue,
incidentally. Turn your attention to the west-most available house in this
terrace block. Inside, there is a man in the top left corner who will fork over
the <COIN CASE>, which is used to store special Coins for gambling with at the
Game Corner. I'll explore that a bit later, but first I want to go to Celadon
Department Store.
Located to the left of Celadon Mansion's main entrance, the Department Store is
the biggest Poke Mart in Kanto and has pretty much everything. Lots of the
stuff we won't need yet, but I'll advise you what to get for now.
1F is the Service Counter and has nothing of interest. The two ways of
traversing this store are to climb the stairs manually at the top right of the
store, or use the lift, located in the top left of the store and activated
through the panel on the wall inside. Get to the second floor, 2F--the
Trainer's Market--to stock up on Great Balls and general items from the guy on
the right and a few naff TMs from the guy on the left.
Most notable of these are TM01 (Mega Punch), if you used one up already from
Mt. Moon; TM32 (Double Team), which boosts your Evade to can't hit levels; TM33
(Reflect), which doubles your team's Defense for five turns; and TM17
(Submission), a powerful Fighting type move with 25% recoil.
Of special note is TM07 (Horn Drill). OHKO moves suck in general, given that
you have to be faster than the foe and they're only ~30% accurate. However, if
you're faster than the foe, you can use an X Accuracy to boost your Pokemon's
Accuracy to 99.6% until the battle ends or that Pokemon switches out. And yes,
you can buy X Accuracys by the truckload from this very store... If you're
shameless, feel free to use this 'strategy' from now on.
On to the third floor, 3F, the TV Game Shop, where you can't buy anything. You
can, however, talk to the guy behind the counter for, well, <TM18> (Counter).
Though it is glitched in this game because it only counters Normal and Fighting
type moves (see Movedex for more details), some people still find it useful for
competitive matches.
4F, the fourth floor, is the Wiseman Gifts store. Here you can purchase
elemental Stones to evolve Pokemon for a paltry $2100 each. Bargain! Stone
evolution usually means that the Pokemon don't learn moves very well anymore
though, so check the Pokedex I've provided for details. They also sell the Poke
Doll, of which I would buy one for a future mini-quest to get a TM.
The following Pokemon evolve by Elemental Stone:
Pikachu --> Raichu (Thunderstone) (R/B)
Vulpix --> Ninetales (Fire Stone)
Gloom --> Vileplume (Leaf Stone)
Growlithe --> Arcanine (Fire Stone)
Poliwhirl --> Poliwrath (Water Stone)
Weepinbell --> Victreebel (Leaf Stone)
Shellder --> Cloyster (Water Stone)
Exeggcute --> Exeggutor (Leaf Stone)
Staryu --> Starmie (Water Stone)
Eevee --> Vaporeon (Water Stone)
--> Jolteon (Thunderstone)
--> Flareon (Fire Stone)
The last numbered floor, 5F, is the Drug Store, and this is where you'll come
to boost your Pokemon's stats for the ultimate team. The prices are far too
hefty now at nearly 10,000 Poke Dollars a pop, but keep it in mind for later.
You can also buy temporary stat boosters here such as X Defend, X Accuracy and
Guard Spec., but I tend not to bother with those.
You'll have to take the stairs for the next level, the Rooftop Square. From the
vending machines here you can purchase drinks. Fresh Water, Soda Pop and
Lemonade heal 50, 60 and 80 HP respectively and are a much cheaper alternative
to Potions, but you can only buy one at a time so it is rather irritating.
You'll want to buy one of each though, since they can be traded in to the
thirsty girl on the right for <TM13> (Ice Beam), <TM48> (Rock Slide) and <TM49>
(Tri Attack) respectively.
Ice Beam is a fantastic move for any Water or Ice type, since it hits lots of
types super-effectively, including the rare Dragon types, so you will most
likely need it for the Elite Four later on. Rock Slide is a decent move at
best, but it's the best Rock type move in the entire game so you'd be wise to
teach it to Golem or something unless you're saving it to duplicate. Lastly,
Tri Attack doesn't have the side effects it does in later generations (causing
one of three status conditions) and so just becomes a decently powered Normal
move with low PP. See the Movedex for more details if you're interested.
Purchase an extra Fresh Water for later purposes (it can be any drink actually,
but Fresh Water is the cheapest) and get outta here. Phew!
Now that you're done shopping, grab a Pokemon that knows Cut, then take the
west exit out of Celadon City. We'll be back soon, I promise.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 27
As you head west on this Route, but before you come to the sleeping Pokemon
blocking your way, you'll pass a cut-able tree. Cut it down, then head into the
grass for a Doduo, which appears fairly regularly.
<DODUO> - Rating: ****
He's actually a pretty decent Pokemon--high Attack and Speed, and Drill Peck is
a great move. Unfortunately, it's Dodrio's only worthwhile move. He's the best
of the bird Pokemon and certainly alright, but probably not too special now
that you've caught a few diverse Pokemon already.
Afterwards, head left into the upper section of the guardhouse and exit through
the left side. Trot on into the small, lonely house here and speak to its
occupant for the mightily useful <HM02> (Fly). Teach this to a useless bird
Pokemon ASAP, because it lets you instantly get to any previously visited major
section of Kanto i.e. the Towns and Cities. This saves a lot of time in
transportation. Head back to Celadon now.

Southwest of the Poke Center are two buildings we passed earlier. The left one
is the Game Corner and the right one is the Prize Exchange. Enter the Game
Corner and, as long as you have the Coin Case, you can start scrounging for
Coins here, which is different to money. There are a few hidden coins, as well
as stuff you can get by talking to people. Playing Yellow, here is what I
found. I might have missed some or it might be different in Red and Blue--
please let me know if you learn anything on this.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Coins Where?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10 Starting from the bottom left of the Game Corner, they're located one
tile to the northeast of your current position.
20 At the top is a Rocket. Two tiles south and two tiles east of him is the
spot where these coins can be found.
10 In the gap between the counter in the top left and the slots tables, one
tile before the west wall.
100 In the tile below the second bookcase in the top right corner.
20 Given by the rightmost man in the Game Corner. He is wearing a hat.
10 Hidden one tile to the southwest of said man.
20 Given by the man to the left of the guy we just got Coins from.
10 Hidden in the tile to the southwest of the bottommost guy in the Game
Corner.
20 One tile to the southeast of the woman in the second column of slots.
10 One tile to the southeast of the man directly below her.
20 One tile to the southeast of the topmost guy in the first column of
slots.
10 One tile southwest of the guy below him to the right, wearing a hat.
10 Given by previous man.
10 One tile to the southeast of the woman near him.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Total - 280 Coins.
I'm really not sure if these are fixed positions or even if they refresh, so
please let me know if you find out anything.
Anyway, you can play the slots by sitting on a seat and pressing A while facing
the wall next to you. I've got no hints for the slots since they're luck based
and differ by version. Essentially, you bet one, two or three coins and try to
line up Pokemon slots. Personally, I find it takes forever to get anywhere,
plus it's as boring as anything. The guy behind the counter will sell you Coins
at a rate of 50 Coins to every $1000. This is steep, but when you make oodles
of dosh from the Missingno. glitch later you won't even care.
Here's what you can get next door from the Prize Exchange:

The unique stuff you can't get anywhere else is Porygon for all versions,
Vulpix in Yellow and all the TMs for all versions.
<PORYGON> - Rating: *
It's trash with awful stats and it costs way to much to get. Use something
else, please.
Everything else can be gotten elsewhere, although you might want to get Scyther
and Pinsir here, since they'll be VERY difficult to catch otherwise. They live
in the Safari Zone, a hellhole which doesn't let you catch Pokemon normally.
<SCYTHER> - Rating: *
<PINSIR> - Rating: *
Unless you're rolling in cash, don't bother. These guys have fairly nice
physical stats, but only have non-STAB Normal moves to use it with, really.
Pinsir gets Submission, woop. Yeah, they're both kinda turds in this game.
Make sure you're healed up, then go to the Game Corner. Talk to the Rocket at
the back to engage in a fight!

bottom right one for a hidden <PP UP>. Head back north, then swing a right and
battle the Rocket here.

Drowzee, as a Psychic type, is always a pain. Save beforehand so you don't get
hit with Hypnosis too much, and just use strong attacks from something that
isn't weak against it (Ivysaur/Venusaur) or something with an abysmal Special
stat (Golem). Machop can eat a Psychic attack or Peck, perhaps.
___
To the left another Rocket awaits.

Head down, then face the Rocket to the left.

Confusion or Peck.
___
Snake down the path to the south and claim <TM10> (Double-Edge) once you get to
the end. Then check to the right of it for a hidden <NUGGET>, woop. Return to
the staircase, but don't go down it. Instead, head left into the first of two
spinner mazes, yay!
These irritating puzzles contain 'spinners', the arrow shaped tiles which
catapult you in their corresponding direction, and 'stoppers', which stop you
and allow you to move again if you have been ejected by a spinner. Walking over
a stopper does nothing.
So, enter the maze to the south and head down as far as you can without
touching any arrows. Take the downward-facing arrow and nab the <RARE CANDY> in
the alcove to the right. Take the upward-facing arrow just to your northwest,
then go up and around the wall until you come to an intersection of arrows, one
facing left and the other right. Take the left arrow, then head down into the
right-facing arrow. Take a zig-zag path left and down until you are blocked by
the south wall, then take the right-facing arrow that is second from the
bottom. Head left for another battle.

He'll drop the <LIFT KEY> afterwards which we direly need, although you'll have
to prompt him for it in Red and Blue. Shimmy around the table to collect <TM02>
(Razor Wind) as well.
Well, we have the Lift Key, so now all we need to do is find the lift.
To do this, first head back up the stairs you last took, then take
the arrows to the left. Go up, then up again, then walk on up and out of the
maze section. Take the flight of stairs, then head southwest into another maze.
Take the bottom of the two left-facing arrows, then grab the <MOON STONE> in
the little gap below you. Head back to the stopper, then head out to your
north, hugging the north wall and avoiding all the arrows, to get a <NUGGET>.
Head back to the same stopper, go down a tad and take the right arrow to pick
up <TM07> (Horn Drill). Head right, then down and step on to the right
downward-facing arrow.
Now take the left arrow. Head down the south path, take the bottom left arrow
and loop around the south pathway. Take the right upwards-facing arrow, then
grab the <SUPER POTION> tucked away here. Take the left arrow, then head north
and step on either arrow here. Take the right downward-facing arrow again, then
the left arrow again, and now take the southern path to the top of the two left
arrows. Step on the right-facing arrow just below you, then head farther into
the room, take the staircase here and battle the Rocket to your left.

_________________________________________________________
If you have a Grass or Water attack, which you should, then the first two pose
no problem--they're both incredibly slow, have poor Special stats and 4x
weaknesses to the aforementioned types. Kangaskhan might look intimidating, but
Comet Punch isn't too bad unless it hits four or five times, and the other two
moves suck a bit, unless Rage builds up, but you should have killed him by
then, especially if you have Submission.
Persian replaces Kanga in Yellow and is much faster at the cost of power. If
you get hit by Screech, your defense will plummet and you'll start taking
double, then triple, then quadruple damage each time he uses it. Switch out to
reset the effects. Otherwise, Persian's pretty easy since his defenses aren't
exactly top-notch.
Oh, and Giovanni has a stock of Guard Specs., which protects his Pokemon
against stat drops.
___
After being defeated, Giovanni will drop the <SILPH SCOPE>, which, although
unnecessary to complete the game, is a Key Item nonetheless. Snag it. Now get
back in the elevator and take it back to B1F. Upon emerging, you'll find one
last Rocket to destroy.

[ ] TM21 (Mega Drain)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 29
Okay, no messing around now--it's Gym time. But first, head to the PokeCenter,
heal up and deposit all your useless items in the PC. Also, take out a HM Slave
that knows Cut, because we'll need one to access the Gym.
Head to the southeast part of the city and use Cut on the tree here. Swing a
left, talk to the pervy old man if you wish, then head inside.
Erika and her cronies like to use Grass type Pokemon. Save for two Pokemon,
they all share a Poison typing as well, meaning Psychics will have fun here.
Also good are Ice, Fire and Flying types, although I doubt you'll have any Ice
moves that don't belong to a Water type, so that's out of the question.
Charizard will smoke this place out and Alakazam will also do pretty well. Here
is the team I had at this point.
___
My Team
Pikachu L21 ~ ThunderShock, Thunder Wave, Quick Attack, Slam
Butterfree L16 ~ Confusion, PoisonPowder, Stun Spore, Sleep Powder
Golem L32 ~ Rock Throw, Mega Punch, Selfdestruct, Submission
Ivysaur L31 ~ Tackle, Vine Whip, PoisonPowder, Razor Leaf
Alakazam L34 ~ Teleport, Confusion, Psybeam, Recover
As you can see, Fearow has fallen out of favour, and Pikachu and Butterfree
just don't have the power to keep up anymore. Butterfree is only around for
status attacks on wild Pokemon, and Pikachu is, er, my starter. Alakazam owns
everything on the Special side, Golem on the Physical and Ivysaur hammers Rock,
Ground and Water types. I'm just using the three of those guys now.
___
There are seven trainers to take care of here, not including Erika herself.
Let's get started. Head on up to battle two women.

Alakazam's not so useful here, since Exeggcute is part Psychic itself. If you
have a Fire, Ice or Flying move, now would be the time to use it. Otherwise,
wail on it with strong neutral attacks. Hypnosis should be avoided and Reflect
only affects physical attacks (it halves them). Barrage is a weak multi-hit
move.
___
As you head right to face more trainers, you'll notice the second one along
doesn't come down to fight you. This is Erika, the Gym Leader. We'll smoke her
in a bit, but we might as well collect the juicy Exp. the other two lovely

_________________________________________________________
With high level Pokemon, two-thirds of whom sport Sleep Powder, Erika is going
to be pretty tough, although if you've been training well, she won't be the
toughest so far. Victreebel in R/B is a monster--at L29, Sleep Powder and Razor
Leaf in tandem is a deadly combo, and Wrap just makes it all the more annoying.
Thankfully, Charizard and Venusaur both take a quarter of the damage from Razor
Leaf, though Venusaur will be hard pressed to do any damage back. Alakazam can
turn it to pulp, as can a good Fire type, or perhaps Fearow?s Peck if you're
desperate. Or Drill Peck, if you have a L34 one.
Tangela's next up, but it's easy--L24, with two weak trapping moves. Tangela is
slow and has no physical presence, so you'll be fine. Finally, the L29
Vileplume. It too will hammer on Sleep Powder before using Petal Dance, a
deadly Grass move that will eventually confuse Vileplume. The confusion is a
nice touch, but hopefully you'll use your super-effective types to kill it by
then. Mega Drain shouldn't be too much to worry about either.
In Yellow, we again get a Tangela, but at L30, and with Vine Whip and Mega
Drain to work off its better Special stat. Thankfully, it's still slow, so any
decently fast Pokemon should nail it in one or two hits. Weepinbell and Gloom
are both about as powerful as their Red and Blue evolved counterparts
(Victreebel and Vileplume, respectively) due to their three extra levels, so
just use the advice I've handed out for those two above.
Erika occasionally uses a Super Potion on her Pokemon, which restores 50HP.
___
Congratulations! Once defeated, Erika will give you the RainbowBadge, which
means that traded Pokemon up to and including L50 will fully obey you. It also
gives you the ability to use the HM Strength on the field. She'll ALSO fork
over <TM21> (Mega Drain), a low power Grass move which absorbs half the
inflicted damage.
Our next destination is the Pokemon Tower, in Lavender Town. As preparation,
you will want either the Silph Scope, which you already have if you've followed
this guide, or a Poke Doll, which can be purchased from the Celadon Dept.
Store. You don't need both. However, regardless of which one you have, make
sure you get another Poke Doll to trade for a TM later, okay?
Let's go back to Lavender Town, but first, we'll take a small detour to get a
TM. Make sure you have a drink (either Fresh Water, Soda Pop or Lemonade in
your inventory--I advised people following this guide to buy a Fresh Water
earlier, so nab that from your PC if you deposited it. Now head east into Route
7, but, once you get there, instead of taking the Underground Path, enter the
guardhouse.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 31
Once you're in the guardhouse, if you have any of the aforementioned items, the
guard will automatically take it, allowing you entrance to Saffron City.
Saffron City lies at the heart of Kanto, providing quick access to Cerulean
City (north gatehouse), Lavender Town (east gatehouse), Vermilion City (south
gatehouse) and Celadon City (west gatehouse). Additionally, once you given any
of the four gatehouses' guards a drink, he'll share it with the other guards
and they will all allow you passage. Sweet!

[ ] TM29 (Psychic)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 31
If you mosey along the bottom row of houses, enter the only one with an
entrance (besides the Poke Center) and speak to the hat-clad man inside for
<TM29> (Psychic), one of the best moves in the game. Use it wisely. Team Rocket
have blocked off most of the fun aspects of Saffron City, so we'll come back
later--but there is one thing in which you can partake... if your levels are
high enough.
You'll be facing Fighting Pokemon exclusively, the highest of which are L37. So
if you have, say, a L32 or higher Psychic Pokemon, you should be okay. I'm
going to assume you don't, because otherwise this is a fairly hefty feat to
accomplish right now. But if you must, you can mosey on over to the north-east
side of Saffron and enter the left-most 'Gym'. Beat the five Fighting type
trainers inside and claim either Hitmonlee (recommended) or Hitmonchan (not so
much). I'll be covering this later in the guide, so don't sweat it if you think
you can't handle it yet.
To continue with your adventure, head over to the east gatehouse and follow
Route 8 east back to Lavender Town. Buy some Great Balls if you're running low
on Balls. On the east side of the town there is a large building--Pokemon
Tower. It's a Pokemon graveyard/memorial site, and regardless of how depressing
that it, we're going to have to venture inside as clear all the Rockets out of
there. Let's get started then, shall we?

If you choose not to traverse this area with the Silph Scope, you will not be
able to catch any wild Pokemon--they will appear as Ghosts and your Pokemon
will be too frightened to attack. Also, you need to defeat a very specific
Ghost at the end of the tower, so you'll need the Silph Scope--although it is
possible to get back that encounter by using a Poke Doll (purchased from
Celadon Poke Mart) instead. Still, I'd grab the Silph Scope, because otherwise
the wild Pokemon will remain unable to be caught.
Anyway, once you've healed up and entered the Tower, take the staircase to the
right to encounter your Rival again. I would show you my team, but it's the
same as when I last showed it, except my Alakazam is now L37. Fight time.

_________________________________________________________
*If you skipped the Route 22 Rival battle, the game considers the fight lost.
Your Rival is coming pretty close to having his final team of six. In Red and
Blue, he fights with a Grass/Fire/Water trio, topped off with Pidgeotto and
Kadabra. Pidgeotto is first, but its attacks deal little to no damage--the only
problem you should have is if it decides to spam Sand-Attack. In this case,
just switch out to reset your accuracy. Electric, Rock and Ice attacks work
best, any of which you could potentially have by now.
Next up are the two non-starters of the Grass/Fire/Water trio--that is, any two
of Exeggcute, Growlithe or Gyarados. Exeggcute is a pain with its Psychic
typing, but falls to a Fire, Flying or Ice attack. Barrage is weak, but
Hypnosis could get irritating. Growlithe has Bite and Ember, but these attacks
are fairly weak and any good Water, Rock or Ground type will make quick work of
him. Finally, Gyarados, the strongest of the three, has Thrash which works off
a powerful attack stat but confuses Gyarados after 2-3 turns. Luckily, if you
have an electric attack, Gyarados will faint due to its 4x weakness. Otherwise,
it's only weak to Rock type moves, so fire away with those since it has no
Water attacks to slam you with.
Next up is Kadabra, annoyingly weakness-free as always. Thankfully, it hasn't
got a powerful Psychic move yet--Confusion might cause, er, confusion, so
switch out if that happens. Disable is a pain, but since it's only one move at
a time, you should have backup moves to use. Hopefully, Kadabra will try to
Teleport to no effect a few times.
Finally, the starter. These guys are the same as always. Ivysaur only has one
damaging attack, but two status attacks in PoisonPowder and Leech Seed, which
can be annoying, so take it out with a Fire, Flying, Ice or Psychic attack
ASAP. Charmeleon is fairly easy to deal with as long as you aren't bothered by
Ember. It's also a good idea not to let him hit you too many times with Rage,
but he shouldn't be around long enough to build it up--Water, Rock or Ground
will sort him out. Wartortle has three damaging attacks, of which Water Gun is
its strongest. A good Grass or Electric will sort him out, but just wail on him
with strong attacks from anything that isn't Fire, Rock or Ground if you
haven't got any Grass or Electric types.
In Yellow, your Rival works off a Fire/Water/Electric core, packing two of
those three types now and later evolving Eevee into the third. First up,
though, is Fearow, whose Fury Attack can be annoying. Interestingly, Fearow
packs Mirror Move, which copies your last move and uses it against you--some
planning ahead might be required so you don't get your Gyarados to use
Thunderbolt, for example. Anyway, Fearow chokes on Electric, Rock and Ice
attacks.
Then you'll face two of Vulpix, Shellder or Magnemite. Vulpix has Quick Attack
and Ember--no problem for a hardened Water, Rock or Ground type. It also packs
the useless Roar. Hope it spams that. Next up, Shellder has Supersonic to
confuse you and Clamp to trap you--things will get irritating if you don't
faint it with a fast Grass or Electric type. Maybe, if you lost one of your
first Rival battles, you'll face Magnemite. SonicBoom will be very annoying,
but just use Ground type moves or, failing that, the strongest thing you have.
Like a L37 Alakazam.
Last up is Eevee. Quick Attack is surprisingly decent, but that's all it has
apart from status attacks. Sand-Attack might get annoying as always, so if your
accuracy drops below comfortable levels, switch out to reset the effect. Eevee
shouldn't be too bad, especially if you own something that packs Submission or
is a Rock type (Golem).
Oh, and when his Pokemon are at low health, he likes to use a Potion. This
won't heal much of their HP though, maybe about 1/3rd of their HP bar. So yeah.
Phew.
___
Head up to the third floor by taking the stairs on the west. On this floor,
wild Pokemon will start appearing, which you cannot see or fight unless you
have the Silph Scope. Time to start catching.
<GASTLY> - Rating: *** (Haunter)
- Rating: **** (Gengar)
Gastly and its evolution, Haunter, are the only evolution line in the game that
is Ghost type. This means that they are immune to Normal and Fighting attacks.
However, they are part Poison and, thanks to a glitch in RBY, Ghost type moves
cannot harm Psychic types. Still, they learn a nice variety of moves and are
immune to any Pokemon that just packs Normal moves. It also packs some awesome
Special and Speed stats.
You'll be fighting plenty of Ghosts soon, so you can use your Psychic type (who
should be a staple team member) to obliterate them. Ground type moves also do
well. Ghost itself as a type is only weak to the pathetic and rare Ghost type
attacks, so I?d just hammer their Poison weakness instead.
You can also catch a Cubone and I would recommend catching two for Yellow
players, who can trade one for a Machoke (which will instantly evolve into
Machamp, since Machoke's evolution criterion is to be traded).
<CUBONE> - Rating: *
Cubone itself is a fairly bad Pokemon, overshadowed by much better Ground types
and just a tad too low-levelled to be useful in a team right now. It's got poor
or average stats besides Defense, which doesn't count for too much really. But
hey, if you think he's adorable and must have one, be my guest.
Note that for the Channelers, I will not be providing any strategy--they all
use the same Pokemon. Use Psychic or Ground moves for the best effect, and know
that Gastly and Haunter have high Special stats, so if you can only manage to
hit them neutrally, physical attacks will deal more damage.
First, head north and around to east on this floor and take on the Channeler
here.

Rattata uses Focus Energy, because it's glitched in RBY and will quarter his
critical hit ratio instead of quadrupling it.

Yellow players have a bit of an easier time, since they only have to take on
the combined forces of Jessie and James.

New Items
---------
[ ] Poke Flute
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 33
Head up on inside Mr. Fuji's house and talk to him to receive the <POKE FLUTE>.
This fantastic item will let you wake up the two pesky Snorlax you might have
seen lying around, and then battle them to either catch or faint them. Either
way, they'll be removed from the map so your path is no longer blocked. The
Poke Flute also acts like an infinite-use Awakening, in that it wakes your
Pokemon up in one turn, so it is well worth hanging on to. However, should the
opponent be asleep as well, they will also wake up if you use the Flute.

New Pokemon
-----------
( ) Machoke (Y)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 33
Now that you have a Cubone (or two, if you wanted a spare), if you would like
to trade it for a Machoke that evolves instantly into Machamp, take the Cubone
out of your PC and head on over to Saffron City. Take the north exit out of the
guardhouse, then take an immediate right and enter the small house here at the
bottom of Route 5, the one that leads to the underground path. Talk to the girl
here to initiate the trade to get a very cool Machamp.
You now have a few choices: you can clear out Silph Co., a tower full of
Rockets (again, but much harder this time) in Saffron City; you can take Routes
12-15 all the way to Fuchsia City, earning a truckload of Exp. and the Super
Rod along the way; or you can take Cycling Road--Routes 16-18--to Fuchsia City
also. Of the three options, the last one is the easiest, so I'm going to do
that first, followed by Routes 12-15, and finally Silph Co. Okay?
Head to Celadon City now, and leave via its western exit.

[ ] Snorlax
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 33
If you don't already have Fly, Cut the tree above you, follow the path to a
house, and talk to the occupant inside. Done. The first obstacle of the Route
is, of course, Snorlax. To wake him up and battle him, use the Poke Flute while
standing next to him. You can catch or faint him--either way, he'll disappear
for good so you can proceed. However, there are only two Snorlax in this game,
so you might want to catch him. If you use my strategy below, it'll take you,
on average, about four Great Balls. Save beforehand!
_________________________________________________________
Fated Encounter: Snorlax Version: R B Y
---------------------------------------------------------
#143: Snorlax NRM L30 660 Exp.
~ Headbutt, Amnesia, Rest
_________________________________________________________
I didn't provide Snorlax's stats here--they're randomised because he's a wild
Pokemon.
Here's the plan if you want to catch him--have some Great Balls handy, or if
you have any Ultra Balls you're welcome to use those. If you use a Great Ball,
your optimum chances of catching Snorlax is at below half of its HP--there's no
need to go any lower than that, because it doesn't improve your chances. With
an Ultra Ball, you'll need to get him below a third of his HP before any more
HP damage becomes redundant. Now, play around with him until he uses Rest
(which fully heals him but gives him Sleep status), then quickly get him into
the required low HP range, because he'll wake up two turns after he uses it.
At these ranges (1/3 for Ultra, 1/2 for Great), and with Sleep status in
effect, your chances for catching Snorlax are at their maximum, with a ~24.88%
chance with a Great Ball (average four tries), and a ~33.11% chance with an
Ultra Ball (average three tries). There is no possible way for that chance to
get any higher, short of using a Master Ball. Just keep tossing Balls, and
you'll eventually come out on top! By the way, the most damaging move you can
do to Snorlax is probably Submission, but I wouldn't recommend it since his HP
stat is huge so you'll get mega recoil damage.
___
<SNORLAX> - Rating: ****
Arriving at L30 with a STAB move, a recovery move, and a stat-boosting move,
Snorlax is a fine team addition that slots in very nicely. He also has no
weaknesses--apart from the rarely-used Fighting type--a behemoth HP and very
nice Attack stat. The only thing that holds him back is his Slow rate of
growth, meaning he takes forever to level up. It's up to you if you think he's
worth it or not.
Continue west into Route 16, but note that without a Bicycle this is as far as
you get. You can find out how to get a Bicycle by reading the Vermilion City
section, if you haven't been following this guide.
Start with the Biker below you and challenge the trainers here. From right-to-

<PONYTA (Y)> - Rating: **
Now that you're in this grass patch, you might as well catch yourself a Ponyta,
if you're playing Yellow version anyway. Unfortunately, despite its
awesomeness, Ponyta is nigh unusable in-game, because it doesn't get any decent
Fire moves and it evolves at L40. I'd give it a miss.
Also, while you're here, you should search for a hidden <RARE CANDY> in the
grass here. It lies in the grass patch, seven rows down and three columns in
from the right, but manoeuvring there will be a pain because of the hill
automatically making you cycle south all the time. Just spam the A button while
traversing the third column in from the right and you should get it.
Take a left from the trainers you just beat to fight another Trainer.

Annoying, but not dangerous. Use a fast Psychic type. If you can't, Poison Gas
always poisons and disable will probably cripple your favourite move. Still,
his damaging attack is lame and so he'll have a hard time beating you.
___
Continue down the narrow middle pathway until you get to sign. The sign
mentions 'discarded items'. I think I'll get one of those now, thanks. If you
travel up against the left edge of this centre path, about six paces up is a
hidden <FULL RESTORE>. Again, spam A to get it while moving.
Take the left path now and just kill the two trainers along here. You've seen
all the Pokemon before--hundreds of times--so no strategies for you.

Woo. Head east through the guardhouse. On the top floor, a dude will trade you
Lickitung in Red/Blue, which is great, because that's the only one this game
offers. Fab. Unfortunately, we don't have Slowbro, so I'll have to remind you
to come back. In Yellow, he offers Parasect for Tangela, which isn't a good
trade. Besides, we don't have Tangela yet. I'll remind you to get a spare,
though, if you must trade.
Exit the station. To your east lies Fuchsia City, which you are welcome to
explore. Find the Poke Center if you want (take the very first south path--one
tile wide--to get there), but then come back here. Just after the exit of the
guardhouse, to the south, are two more trainers and this area's wild Pokemon...
of which none should be new to you. Juicy Exp. time it is then! In order, I'm
tackling the guy on the left, then the two below him.

All of these guys can be taken down by Electric, Ice or Rock attacks. Take your
pick. Drill Peck is the most dangerous move here, but only Dodrio uses it to
its full potential. Dodrio is easily the hardest one here, but it can't
penetrate Golem's shell. Anything not Grass, Bug or Fighting should do well
here.

That is literally it for Route 18, unless you happen not to have caught all the
available Pokemon here. Head east into Fuchsia City.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 36
After healing at the Poke Center, head east over the ledge. On your right are
two houses, but the one that interests us is the one on the right. Inside is
the Fishing Guru's brother, who will fork over the <GOOD ROD>, and if you head
out the back door, you can practice with it in the pond here. Up for grabs are:
<GOLDEEN> - Rating: **
A thouroughly awful Water Pokemon that I wouldn't waste my time with. Honestly.
Okay so it's not THAT bad, but it is still pretty poor.
<POLIWAG> - Rating: ***
A not-so-awful Pokemon that happens to have average stats and an unfortunate
weakness to Psychic types upon its final evolution. A bit too low-levelled to
really be worth your investment here, but has a wide movepool and useful
typing. Catch an extra one and go back to Cerulean City to trade it for a Jynx!
<JYNX> - Rating: ****
Despite only possessing average-at-best stats, Jynx is a great Pokemon which
boasts two powerful STAB moves in Ice Beam and Psychic, if you can spare the
TMs. Boosted EXP. points is always a plus too.
If you feel up to it, you can challenge the Gym Leader, Koga, right now.
Considering he uses a L43 in Red/Blue and a L50 in Yellow, you might, like me,
bit a bit under-levelled. I'm going to wait. But trust me, the Gym is the least
exciting thing in Fuchsia compared to the Safari Zone.
Yes, we're here. If you don't already know, the Safari Zone is a haven full of
Pokemon, a wild outback where, for a measly $500, you're given 30 Safari Balls
and a 500 step counter to catch whatever you want. Of course, that sounds too
good to be true... because it is.
You don't fight the wild Pokemon like normal--rather, you have to pelt them
with rocks and bait enough to catch them. Totally not animal cruelty or
anything. And they have a chance in any given turn to run away from you. So
yes, it's very annoying, especially since some of the rarest Pokemon appear
here, with ridiculously low encounter rates. But if you persist, you can come
home with a truckload of exotic 'Mons, most of which cannot be caught
elsewhere.
However, there is, in Red and Blue at least, a way to catch Safari Pokemon
using the traditional 'beat-them-til-they're-nearly-dead-then-toss-a-Ball-at-
them' method, but we'll have to wait until we reach Cinnabar Island for that.
If the Safari Zone gets on your nerves like it does mine, feel free to wait.
I'll remind you of the glitch (and another infamous one) once we reach
Cinnabar.
There are a lot of Pokemon to catch, so consider changing to an empty box in
your PC. There are also a bunch of items, so consider emptying them into your
PC as well. Even if you don't want to catch any Pokemon, the Safari Zone is
still a mandatory part of your quest, since there are a few quest-related items
contained within.
Anyway, to get to the fabled Safari Zone, snake your way to the very north
point of Fuchsia City--made easier if you are holding a Cut-user--then enter
the building here and agree to take part. Awesome.

Catching Pokemon here is a pain, especially since they're so damn rare, and the
chance of catching something like Scyther is about 10% if you don't throw rocks
or bait at it. Speaking of which, the catch system here gives you four options.
Very roughly, this is what happens:
- Run: You can escape from any battle with 100% success.
- Throw Rock: Doubles capture chance and doubles chance of foe running.
- Throw Bait: Halves capture chance and quarters chance of foe running.
- Throw Ball: Attempts a catch.
You can stack these effects, so two thrown rocks would quadruple the capture
chance and the chance to run. This really isn't recommended, because the
absolute highest chance you have of catching a Pokemon is ~=33.59% (because
they always have full HP, your chances are significantly lowered), but a
quadruple chance of running away means you'll never get to see them. If you're
interested in the 100% accurate version of this, check out section M09; 'Safari
Zone Catching Mechanics'. Also note that the faster a Pokemon is, the higher
its chance of escaping. Trust me when I say your best bet is to just lob Safari
Balls.
Also, the Safari Zone gives you a limited number of steps--500 to be exact.
Once you have taken 500 steps, you are automatically recalled to the reception
area. You can also resign by returning to the entrance. When you quit the
Safari Zone, all unused Safari Balls will be lost. If you want to catch Pokemon
without fear of being recalled, you can rotate on the spot (in tall grass,
obviously) by pressing the D-Pad very lightly, which doesn't count towards the
step counter.
Oh, and there are no trainers here, which is great. Okay, let's get started.
The first area, the Entrance, has nothing of interest at the moment, except
patches of grass where you can start catching your 'Mons. New Pokemon include:
<VENONAT> - Rating: *
Venonat is new for Red and Blue players, but it's worse than it's Yellow
counterpart and is stuck with amazing moves like TACKLE and LEECH LIFE
(sarcasm) for a long time. Skip it, honestly.
<EXEGGCUTE> - Rating: ***
A Grass/Psychic hybrid that relies heavily on TMs for moves--it does at least
get some nice early support in Hypnosis and can be evolved whenever you feel
like it with the Leaf Stone. It also has a fantastic Special stat, but you
should make sure to use the Psychic TM from Saffron to unleash its full
potential.
<RHYHORN> - Rating: **
A decent Ground/Rock type a bit similar to Golem, but who arrives too late and
requires too many TMs to be useful compared to, say, Dugtrio.
<CHANSEY> - Rating: **
The premier Special sponge has a few difficulties attacking with her natural
movepool, but give her a few Special TMs and she might fare okay for you. Keep
her away from physical Pokemon!
<TANGELA> - Rating: *
For Yellow players, a bulky Grass type that just can't compete with the likes
of Victreebel and Venusaur since it lacks Razor Leaf.
If you want to complete all in-game trades, Red and Blue players should catch a
Nidorino (to trade for Nidorina in Route 11) and Yellow players should catch a
Tangela (to trade for Parasect in Route 18).
Head east down a narrow path into some grass. Here you can find...
<KANGASKHAN> - Rating: **
A decent but not-that-special Normal type sweeper, very much outclassed by...
<TAUROS> - Rating: ***
One of the game's premier physical powerhouses--with top notch Attack and Speed
stats. Needs a crapton of TMs to be anywhere near useful though.
Climb up the stairs here and continue north for a tasty <CARBOS>. Go slightly
down, then west past the stairs you just ascended, and take the other set of
stairs down here. Follow the path around, hugging the water's edge, to come
across <TM37> (Egg Bomb). Exit this little alcove and head northwest for a <MAX
POTION>. Then head east, up the stairs on to a little raised section before
coming back down the other side. Pick up the <FULL RESTORE> in plain sight
here, then head north past the Rest House and west, taking the lower of the two
branching pathways, into Area 2.
Head west into the giant patch of grass, ignoring the first set of steps here--
they will lead you on a winding route that leads to an empty, step-consuming
dead end. Also ignore the south pathway, which leads to a dead end full of
grass back in Area 1. In the giant grass patch, head north up the stairs and
follow the route until you come to an intersection by a pond. Head north until
you cannot do so anymore, then head east for <TM40> (Skull Bash). Head east,
then loop around on yourself, heading north past the Rest House, and start
going west for a <PROTEIN>. Continue west, then head to the southwest portion
of this open area, then down a south pathway to access Area 3.
Head down and pick up the <GOLD TEETH>, then head west for <TM32> (Double
Team). Check the bottom of the two statues to the right of the Secret House
here for a hidden <REVIVE>, then enter this house and talk to its resident for
the fantastic <HM03> (Surf). Not only does this let you traverse water--
provided you have the SoulBadge--but it is also arguably the best Water type
move in the game. If you have any Water types, I'm hard pressed to find one who
wouldn't benefit from this great move.
That's all we can do here for the moment, unless you already have the SoulBadge
or the Super Rod, but I haven't got those items in the guide yet, so we'll come
back later. Let your step counter run out to return to Fuchsia City.

New Items
---------
[ ] HM04 (Strength) [ ] Rare Candy
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 36
Do you remember where you got the Good Rod, to the east of the Poke Center?
Enter the house to the left of that one and, if you have the Gold Teeth, talk
to the warden who will give you the game's last HM, <HM04> (Strength), which
gives you the ability to move boulders on the field. It's also a decent Normal
type move, but since you can't delete HMs without trading to GSC and back, make
sure that you don't mind it on your Pokemon--there are better Normal moves out
there. You need the RainbowBadge to use Strength--luckily, we already have it,
so go ahead and push the boulder to your right aside for a <RARE CANDY>.
Apart from the Gym, and a few things I mentioned before about the Safari Zone,
we've done everything in Fuchsia City. If you feel underlevelled for the Gym, I
do have a remedy--four Routes stuffed with trainers: Routes 12-15. They
represent the 'other' way into Fuchsia, and lead from Lavender southwards. Fly
to Lavender now, then head south out of the town. I'd highly recommend keeping
your Fly user with you, since there are a ****load (boatload) of trainers to
fight down these Routes. Oh, and bring your Poke Flute, because there's another
Snorlax to catch/faint.

Head south down the wooden path, then take a right at the fork and continue
south into the guardhouse. Talk to the woman upstairs for TM39 if you didn't
grab it while in Lavender Town, then leave through the south exit. Go east at
the next fork and follow the path to a trainer. Oh, and I won't be providing
battle strategies for the next four Routes--the Pokemon are all much lower
levels than you and you should have a pretty good idea of type advantage at
this point. Also, I'm lazy.

_________________________________________________________
Fated Encounter: Snorlax Version: R B Y
---------------------------------------------------------
#143: Snorlax NRM L30 660 Exp.
~ Headbutt, Amnesia, Rest
_________________________________________________________
Follow the strategy I provided for the previous Snorlax if you want to catch
this one as well. Basically, wait until it Rests, slam it to below a third of
its HP (or half if you're using a Great Ball), then chuck a Ball at it until
you catch it.
___
Continue heading south along a winding path to another trainer. Since we've
passed the Snorlax, the levels of enemy Pokemon will jump up a bit, but not
enough to pose much of a threat.

Enter the house and speak to the final Fishing Guru brother for the best rod in
the game; the <SUPER ROD>. You can head outside and start fishing immediately
for three average Water types that are outclassed by much better Pokemon:
<TENTACOOL> - Rating: ***
Tentacool has the unfortunate Poison typing, but a lovely 120 Special stat.
Water types are pretty much always useful, and he can use Wrap as well if
you're feeling cheap.
<KRABBY> - Rating: **
A generic Water type that can't use STAB attacks very well due to having a very
low Special stat. Cry.
<HORSEA> - Rating: ***
Another generic Water type, but at least this one has a good Special stat.
Keep following the path after you're done and you'll soon chance across a Cut-
able tree. Hack it down and fight the guy inside.

Continue southwards. Once you find another Cut-able tree, you can hack your way
into a grassy area--this Route's wild Pokemon reside only here. Yellow players
can bag themselves the thoroughly useless Farfetch'd and, er, that's about it
for new Pokemon, unless you count evolutions. Once you're done, cut your way
back out and head south, eventually passing into the next Route... But first,
you can Fly around Kanto and test out your new Super Rod, bagging a whole bunch
of Pokemon.

<PSYDUCK> - Rating: ***
<SLOWPOKE> - Rating: **
<SHELLDER> - Rating: **
<STARYU> - Rating: ****
Psyduck, Slowpoke and Shellder haven't been evaluated yet, but are all sort of
average Water types at this point of the game. Psyduck is average across the
board, Slowpoke is bulky and Psychic but hideously slow, and Shellder is
heavily defensive and generally pretty decent when attacking. The only shining
star here (pun thouroughly intended) is Staryu, who eventually evolves into the
powerful, speedy, versatile, Water/Psychic Starmie, a fantastic Pokemon to
have. Unfortunately, it's too low levelled now to be of much use, but a tiny
bit of grinding can sort that right out.
We're also going to head over to the Safari Zone again, but I'm going to wait
until we get the SoulBadge too, so that we can totally finish it all in one go.
Of course, if you must have Dratini now, then go ahead. Anyway, once you're
done, return to where we left off from in Route 12, then head south into Route
13.

If you want to--and provided you have a Cut-user--you can head a little west
from her, then zig-zag to your northeast to find a Cut-able tree, which leads
to this Route's tall grass, where Red/Blue players can catch Ditto.
<DITTO> - Rating: *
A novelty Pokemon that is essentially useless, but can Transform into the
opposing Pokemon, with all their stats (except HP) and moves (at 5PP each). Fun
to play with, but not a serious contender. Also, he appears here very rarely;
very soon in Route 15 he has a 20% appearance rate, so consider waiting just a
tad.
From the Jr. Trainer you last defeated, head all the way west until you are
challenged by a Bird Keeper.

I'd recommend starting with the top pathway.

After you've done all that, congratulate yourself, for you have just taken out
a huge amount of trainers. Head west into the gatehouse, then head upstairs.
Talk to the Professor's aide and he'll evaluate your 'Dex--if you have 50 or
more Pokemon, he'll give you the <EXP. ALL>, an item which shares earned Exp.
with every non-fainted member of your party. Usually not worth hanging on to,
unless you're training up some low level Pokemon.
Okay, exit west into Fuchsia. We'll swipe the SoulBadge off Koga, then finish
up some business in the Safari Zone.
____________

New Items
---------
[ ] TM06 (Toxic)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 41
First and foremost, get to the Poke Center. Once you've done that, trudge west
into Koga's Gym. Hopefully your Pokemon are in their low 40's at this point.
Koga's highest level Pokemon is L43 in Red/Blue and L50 in Yellow. Don't let
that L50 put you off--it's a fairly weak Bug/Poison type, so any decent Fire,
Flying, Rock or Psychic type will bring it down with ease. Koga and his cronies
all use the Poison type. Yeah. How this guy became a Gym Leader, I'll never
know. Anyway, this is what I was using at this point:
___
My Team
Golem L43 ~ Rock Throw, Submission, Earthquake, Explosion
Venusaur L40 ~ Tackle, Vine Whip, PoisonPowder, Razor Leaf
Alakazam L44 ~ Psybeam, Recover, Reflect, Psychic
Honestly, just these three guys were enough to blitz through most of the game
so far. Pikachu was only really necessary for the early portions of the game--
he took care of Flying and Water types, which are now taken care of by Golem
and Venusaur respectively. Butterfree is useless now except for laying down
Sleep Powder. Hm. I'll be getting myself an awesome new Electric type Pokemon
in the next section.
I'm aware that not everyone can have these team members up until this point, so
here's a few things I recommend in preparation for the Elite Four--the game's
penultimate challenge:
- An Electric type Pokemon with Thunderbolt or at least Thunder.
- A Grass or Water Pokemon, with Razor Leaf or Surf respectively.
- A Psychic Pokemon packing Psychic.
- A Ground type Pokemon packing Earthquake or Dig.
- A physical Pokemon with a Rock and/or Fighting attack (Rock Slide /
Submission).
- A Pokemon packing Blizzard or Ice Beam.
I'm going to get myself a Zapdos to satisfy the first criterion, but Jolteon or
Raichu work just as well. Then I have Venusaur (otherwise maybe Victreebell?
For Water types most things work well), Alakazam (try Hypno otherwise), Golem
for criteria 4 and 5, and I'll net myself an Articuno for the last criterion.
Job done.
___
Once you're in the Gym, you might start to notice that there are invisble walls
blocking the path to Koga. Apparently you can only make them out (vaguely) on
colour screen Game Boys, so I'll point you in the right direction, in case
you're still playing on a machine from the Stone Age.
First, take on the trainer to the left of the Gym.

Somebody clearly didn't get the memo about Poison type Pokemon. Yes, it's our
old enemy, the Psychic type. The best you can do is use a powerful physical
move to slam these guys on their weaker defensive side. Jugglers like to switch
their Pokemon out every so often--strangely, it occurs relative to the Speed
stat of the Pokemon they currently have in play (usually, a switch ALWAYS goes
first in a turn). This actually helps you, so don't get scared.

_________________________________________________________
He has totally different teams depending on your version, as you can see. First
up, Red and Blue. Koffing and Muk you've seen before and shouldn't have any
problems with, as long as you stick to Ground and Psychic types.
A L43 Weezing is his toughest Pokemon... but it likes to Selfdestruct a lot.
Bring in something with high Defense that resists all its moves (Golem) and
it'll kill itself for you. Thanks! If it doesn't, it might try to Toxic you,
which saps 1/16th health on your first turn, then 2/16ths, then 3/16ths... etc.
If you switch out, it reverts to normal poison at 1/16th a turn. So yeah, you
can totally wipe out Koga's strategy by switching. Nice and easy.
For Yellow players, don't be upset that his Pokemon are about seven levels
higher--they make up for it by being, erm, awful. Venonat will try to annoy you
with staus, but you should honestly be fast enough and powerful enough to be
unfazed by it. Use the Poke Flute if Sleep strikes!
His strongest member is a L50 Venomoth. Try to take it out quickly, since
Double Team is infuriating to get past (since it raises Evade) if he spams it a
lot. Leech Life is nothing serious, Toxic can be dealt with by switching out
and Psychic can hurt--although it doesn't get STAB so it's not as powerful as
it could be. Rock, Flying, Fire and Psychic types fare well against this guy.
In both versions, Koga likes to buff his Pokemon up with X Attack. Hopefully,
you'll have defeated him before he gets the chance to use too many.
___
When all is said and done, you'll be rewarded with oodles of dosh, the
SoulBadge and the near-useless <TM06> (Toxic). The badge ups your Pokemons'
Defense stats (sweet) and, best of all, allows you to use Surf outside of
battle. And yes, we are going to be abusing this fact for the rest of the game.
Now that you have Surf, almost all of the map is available to explore. Those of
you who are keen to get infinite supplies of all the items you can think of by
exploting a glitch should check out section C05; 'The Missingno. Glitch', since
Cinnabar Island is now available to you (Surf south from Pewter City).
Unfortunately, Yellow players cannot take advantage of this glitch. Sad face.
Those of you who are playing legitimately (good for you!) are welcome to join
me on a roundup of all things Surf-related. But first, head back to the Safari
Zone. Bring your Super Rod and a Surf-user.
___________
Safari Zone
___________
New Items
---------
[ ] Nugget [ ] Max Revive [ ] Max Potion
New Pokemon
-----------
[ ] Dratini
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 42
From the entrance, head north and Surf across to a little island to pick up a
<NUGGET>. Surf west and take the exit here, then head farther west to pick up a
<MAX REVIVE> in the corner here. Head up the stairs next to it and follow them
west to a <MAX POTION> in the grassy area here.
This area is also the wild Pokemon set for Area 3 of the Safari Zone, so get
catching if you need anything. Head west, then north past the raised section of
land and you'll get to some water. Whip out your Super Rod and fish for a
Dratini.
<DRATINI> - Rating: **
The game's only Dragon type and a decent fighter... if you can invest
truckloads of time into it. And I mean truckloads, since it's basically trash
until it evolves into Dragonite at L55. Yeesh.
Once you're done, run out your step counter to exit the Safari Zone.

Surf Roundup
____________
New Items
---------
[ ] Max Ether (H) [ ] TM41 (Softboiled) [ ] TM16 (Pay Day)
New Pokemon
-----------
[ ] Psyduck (Y)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 42
- Route 6:
<PSYDUCK (Y)> - Rating: **
By Surfing on the water in Route 6, Yellow players can nab themselves a
Psyduck. Red and Blue players should have already got one. Thoroughly average
for a Water type, but really unusable due to his low level of arrival, at about
L15.
- Vermilion City:
Head to the house northeast of the Gym. Get into the water on its west side,
then examine the wall immediately to your right as you enter the water for a
<MAX ETHER>.
- Celadon City:
In the centre of the city is a small pond, which you can Surf across. The man
on the other side will give you <TM41> (Softboiled) for your trouble.
- Route 12:
Not long after you enter its northern terminus (come south from Lavender Town),
you'll see an item ball on an island out to the east. Surf out and grab <TM16>
(Pay Day).
- Route 13:
By Surfing this Route, Yellow players can obtain Slowpoke or its evolution,
Slowbro. I've evaluated it before for Red/Blue players--It's reeaaaaally slow
though, so despite Water/Psychic being a really useful type it's mostly
outclassed by the other Water types.
Now that we're done, we're going to do something pretty cool (but also totally
optional). If you want a L50 Electric type legendary Pokemon for your party, as
well as a few cool Electric types to boot, read on. Make sure that you've
supplied yourself with a bunch of Ultra Balls (available at Fuchsia) because
this is going to be difficult. So difficult, in fact, that without any status
effects in play, the best chance you have of catching Zapdos is less than 2%.
So bring something with Sleep or Freeze or, failing that, at least one of the
other status effects.
You might also want to deposit any non-essential items in the PC. Fly to
Cerulean City, then get out a Cut-user and a Surf-user. Exit to the east side
of town (remember, you have to go through the burgled house first). Cut the
tree and head into Route 9, heading all the way east until you finally end up
in a big grass patch surrounded by water--you will now be in Route 10.
________
Route 10
________
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 42
Enter the water using Surf. There are no Pokemon within, so relax. Go east,
then just follow the path all the way around until you reach dry land. There is
a lone trainer here.

I'll quickly outline the Pokemon you can catch here. I've evaluated Magnemite
and Voltorb before, but the rest might be new to you:
Magnemite is a slow, powerful Pokemon with no movepool, totally outclassed by
many other Electric types in this area. Voltorb is the opposite: Fast but weak.
Again, it has no real moves to speak of outside of sacrificing the Thunderbolt
TM on it, and outside of its Speed it's pretty average.
<GRIMER> - Rating: *
Grimer is the same, only Poison type and Yellow-exclusive (for now). It's
pretty trashy overall, with a horrible movepool and bad typing making it
impossible to recommend. Sorry.
<ELECTABUZZ> - Rating: ***
Electabuzz is available only to Red players. Yeah, he's... okay, but there is a
MUCH better Electric type coming up. Can't deny that the 'Buzz is cool though.
Head north through the first room, then take the <CARBOS> in the alcove
immediately to your right. Continue to follow the path until you come to an
intersection. On your left is something that looks like an item ball, but is in
reality a L40 Voltorb.

Afterwards, head right down a long corridor, then head up an take the item--
actually a Voltorb--here in the little alcove. Then continue to follow the
path, taking down the L43 Electrode in your path.

#101: Electrode ELE L43 921 Exp.
~ SonicBoom, Selfdestruct, Light Screen, Swift
_________________________________________________________
Once you've defeated him, continue to follow the pathway right up until a dead
end. Face the west wall and press A to reveal a hidden <MAX ELIXER>. That's all
there is in this room, so head back to the intersection where you fainted your
first fake item ball Voltorb. Head all the way south until you hit to
southernmost wall, then head right. The top item is <TM33> (Reflect) and the
one to the right is a Voltorb.
Exit this room to the northwest and take an immediate right. The next two items
you'll pass are Voltorbs. Take the next south path you come across and take the
item on your left for <TM25> (Thunder). The item to the right is another
Voltorb. Head back out and continue east, then follow the path around until you
reach a small opening to the north. Take it, then take the small left path to a
<HP UP> and the right path to a <RARE CANDY>. Sweet. Exit this little room and
continue west.
Follow the path around until you see an item ball--really an Electrode--in the
tiny room to the south. Battle it if you wish, but ultimately head west and
follow the path north. At the northeast part of this room, wedge yourself into
the alcove, face the north wall and prise out a hidden <PP UP>. Head left, then
go down and you'll see a bird on the map. DO NOT ENGAGE IT WITHOUT SAVING
FIRST! This is Zapdos, a L50 Electric/Flying type legendary. It is immensely
powerful and difficult to catch, so prepare yourself, save your game, and
approach it.

_________________________________________________________
Oh yeah. Make absolutely sure that you status it, because this is otherwise
next to impossible. Honestly. Golem resists all its moves, so slap some status
on it and then switch in something that can handle its moves. Then lob Ultra
Balls at it.
Yup, you heard me--don't bother chipping away at his HP. Even if you get in the
magical zone--below a 1/3rd of Max HP--the chance will only increase by a tiny
percentage. Yeah. Check out the Mechanics section of this guide--M07; 'Catch
Rate Formula' if you don't believe me. Just get him statused, then lob Ultra
Balls at him. He'll be caught eventually... and quicker than you might expect.
Slap PSN/PAR/BRN on him and you have an ~8.6% chance (with an Ultra Ball) at
full HP. SLP/FRZ give you a ~17.2% chance at full HP. So you'll get there in
the end.

<ZAPDOS> - Rating: *****
Well, I don't know about you, but he's becoming part of my team. Between
Thunderbolt and Drill Peck, Zapdos will pose a massive problem to anything that
isn't a Rock/Ground type. A beautiful stat distribution and very nice typing
are also massive bonuses.
Exit to your left to miraculously exit the way you came in. And yes, if you go
back in, you'll begin at the entrance. Weird. Whoever designed the blueprints
for this place must have come from a different dimension. Anyway, next
destination is Saffron City. If you don't have a Fly-user with you (probably
best not to teach Zapdos Fly), then head south along Route 10 until you find a
Poke Center outside Rock Tunnel.

You should now be more than sufficiently levelled to take on the Fighting
pseudo-Gym here. The highest is L37, so you'll be fine and I shan't be
providing any strategies--you should be able to breeze through, especially if
you have a Psychic type. Even if you don't, Zapdos's Drill Peck will take care
of them all. Head to the northeast of the city and enter the smaller Gym to the

Once you beat the Gym's 'leader', you'll get a choice between either Hitmonlee
(on the left) or Hitmonchan. They come at L30, which is a little too low to be
useful now. But still, if you must have one for your team, Hitmonlee is much
better.
<HITMONLEE> - Rating: ***
He has better stats where it counts (Attack and Speed) and learns a bunch of
powerful STAB moves. Just stay away from Special attacks, which will utterly
decimate him.
<HITMONCHAN> - Rating: *
Hitmonchan learns the elemental punches... all coming off a base Special stat
of 35. Ouch. You'll need to teach him stuff like Submission, so there's no
point getting him at all.
Now, if you've done the Pokemon Tower in Lavender (which you certainly should
have by now), the entrance to Silph Co. will not be blocked. It's the large
building more-or-less in the centre of the city. And yes, it's a mandatory
dungeon filled with Rockets and absolutely no wild Pokemon. Oh, and to make it
even more fun, there are teleporter pads! I hate this place. Make sure to
deposit all your items in the PC, because this place is *rammed* with ****
(toys) to collect.

First of all, we're going to get the Card Key, so that we can access all the
rooms in this 11-floor behemoth. Then we'll tackle it one floor at a time,
combing it for items and trainers before moving up a floor, and then finally
we'll take on our Rival and the boss before we can leave this hideous place.
Note: There is a nurse on 9F who will heal your team like at a Poke Center, if
you need it. From the entrance to 9F, go left, then down, beat the Rocket (he
has a Golbat, Drowzee and Hypno at L28), then use the Card Key (obtained in
just a second from 5F) to head left to find the nurse.
On the first floor, there is nothing. Enter the lift and select '5F'. Head west
and examine the first plant pot you see (the one on the right) for a hidden
<ELIXER>. Ignore the scientist to the west for now, then go south and step into
the teleporter next to the Rocket. Immediately step back on the teleporter and
then engage the Rocket I just mentioned.

That's it for the mooks around here; let's bring on the boss already! Head to
9F, heal up, then make your way to 3F. Head down the middle corridor, then
swing a left and use the teleporter in the room here. Two steps left will land
you in a fight with your Rival, so be ready. By the way, this is my team now:
___
My Team
Golem L49 ~ Rock Throw, Submission, Earthquake, Explosion
Venusaur L42 ~ Tackle, Vine Whip, PoisonPowder, Razor Leaf
Alakazam L46 ~ Psybeam, Recover, Reflect, Psychic
Zapdos L51 ~ ThunderShock, Drill Peck, Thunder
Nothing new here, just the addition of Zapdos. You'll want something with good
Attack and Special stats to take on the next gym, which is full of Psychics.
*Gulp*. Psychic types don't have much in the way of weaknesses, so you just
have to slam them on their weaker physical side (that's why you need Attack)
while being able to withstand their attacks yourself (that's what the Special's
for). Zapdos fits the bill here.

*If you skipped the Route 22 Rival battle, the game considers the fight lost.
Rival boy is back for yet another round, but if you think I'm going to go into
detail here, you're wrong. Your levels should be faaaaaar above his--especially
Yellow players--or Sabrina, the Psychic master, will absolutely crush you. Just
use type advantages here like you always do. Zapdos also creams everything but
the Electric types.
___
After you win, talk to the Silph employee on the left for a free L15 Lapras!
<LAPRAS> - Rating: **
This adorable Pokemon is obviously far too underlevelled to become a part of
your team, but if you invest the time in it, it can become a behemoth. It is
actually really good, given time.
Take the south teleporter afterwards, then Yellow players will fight Jessie and
James after taking a single step down.

Giovanni shouldn't pose any problems. If he does, you seriously need to level
up before taking on Sabrina, especially if you're a Yellow player. His toughest
Pokemon, Nidoqueen, easily falls to Psychic, Ground, Ice or Water attacks. Tell
me you have at least one of those. He likes to use Guard Spec., which prevents
his Pokemon's stats from being lowered for five turns. Unless you're still
honestly using Growl or Tail Whip, this should just be a waste of a turn for
him.
___
Once Giovanni is defeated, talk to the Silph Co. President for the <MASTER
BALL>, a Ball that has a 100% capture chance against all Pokemon except
trainer-owned Pokemon and the Pokemon Tower Marowak. Rightly, it should be
saved for Mewtwo, the game's most powerful 'Mon, but just as difficult to catch
are Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres, so take your pick. Whoever aggrivates you the
most (I always seem to have trouble with Articuno, for some reason).
There's also a PC you can use to the southeast, if you must. Use the Escape
Rope that we found earlier to get out of here. Finally!
____________
Saffron City
____________
New Items
---------
[ ] TM31 (Mimic) [ ] Nugget (H) [ ] TM46 (Psywave)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 46
Now that Team Rocket are gone, there are a few more things to do. First, you
can visit Copycat's house in the northwest of the city. Head upstairs and give
her a Poke Doll (bought in Celadon) for <TM31> (Mimic). Also, in the desk, one
square to the right of her computer, is a hidden <NUGGET>.
Now we can finally take on Sabrina, who resides in Saffron City Gym to the
northeast of the city. If you cannot take out a L43 Alakazam (or in Yellow, a
L50), then do not bother taking her on. If you have Zapdos, he should prove
excellent at defeating the spoon-bending freak-of-nature. Otherwise, anything
with strong physical attacks should be okay. It has Recover and Psychic, so
watch out.
Head into the teleporter. I'm now going to assume that you battle the trainers
in a certain order--that is, by heading into the teleporter opposite to the one
you come out of. e.g. if you come out of the northeast teleporter, head into
the northwest teleporter, battling the room's occupant on the way.

She's the same level as Koga, only Psychic is a LOT more dangerous than Poison.
I know that for a while now you've been fighting poor, underlevelled trainers,
but Sabrina is, in Yellow at least, the toughest trainer so far. Having Zapdos
will help out a lot--its high Special means it can take some punishment and its
decent Attack will punch holes in her frail Psychics.
If you do have Zapdos, you can Drill Peck everything and come out on top. She
likes to use X Defend, but this should make very little difference (it's like
using Defense Curl).
I'm not going to discuss anything that isn't named Alakazam--you should be more
than prepared for her little cronies. 'Zam is, of course, one of the most
dangerous Pokemon in the game (you know this already if, like me, you've been
raising one yourself). Both versions have the same moves, except Red and Blue's
Psybeam is turned into Psychic in Yellow--gulp!--and Yellow's is seven levels
higher. Psywave is a set-amount-of-damage-attack, ranging from 1 HP to 1 less
than 1.5x the user's level, meaning it can do 1 to 63 damage in Red and Blue or
1 to 74 in Yellow. This shouldn't be a problem, since your creatures should be
in at least the low 100s.
Recover is its next attack, restoring half its Max HP. If you're doing more
than that amount of damage in a turn, then it's merely a delaying tactic and
he'll fall to a critical hit soon enough. Reflect halves all damage from
physical attacks, so you should try to use them as soon as you can. Finally, we
have Psybeam or Psychic, a devasting move with lots of power in the hands of
Alakazam. Psychic has a 30% chance each turn of lowering your Special stat
while Psybeam is less powerful but might cause confusion. Needless to say, it
will be in your best interests to finish him off quickly.
The best way to do this is by having a strong physical attacker with a decent
Special stat to soak up attacks. And, of course, make sure they aren't Poison
or Fighting. Golem works in a pinch, but his low Speed and Special mean Psychic
will hammer him before he lets off an Earthquake. Normal types such as Snorlax
will do very well; it can soak up Psychic all day with its gargantuan HP.
Zapdos is probably the best thing you can get at this point--a minimum of L50,
with fantastic stats and a 120 power physical move--it's something you'd dream
for.
If, however, you have none of these, you might have to use two Pokemon--one to
soften him up and another to deliver the killing blow (before he uses Recover).
Finally, the last resort is to fight fire with fire--that is, use your own
Psychic type, who will resist Psychic and isn't affected by Reflect. Of course,
you'll be doing very little damage in return, but if you have the edge stat-
wise, you'll come through eventually.
___
Defeating Sabrina earns you the MarshBadge, which lets you train traded Pokemon
up to level 70 before they start to disobey you. She'll also fork over the
terrible <TM46> (Psywave), that set-amount-of-damage-attack I mentioned before.
Anyway, to get out, take the following teleporters: The one next to Sabrina,
northwest, northwest, northeast, southeast.
Heal up and do whatever you usually do once you've earned another badge
(perhaps a victory jig?), then make your way to Fuchsia City. You're going to
need to prepare yourself now. We're heading to Seafoam Islands where we'll be
bagging ourselves another legendary Pokemon; the icy bird of the legendary
trio--Articuno. If you didn't already guess, Zapdos was the electric bird. And
there's a fire one later too (although it's easily the worst of the three--this
game hands them to you in reverse order of usefulness).
Bring a Surf-user, a Strength-user, an Escape Rope or Dig-user, a bunch of
Ultra Balls (for Arty), a bunch of Great Balls (for the wild Pokemon there) and
a status-inflicting Pokemon. You might also want to consider changing boxes. On
the way, there are a lot of trainers to take care of, so you might also want a
Fly-user to Fly to a Center to restore PP. Take Fuchsia City's south exit on to
the beach.

Yep, Tentacool is to seas what Pidgey is to land and Zubat is to caves. You'll
get very sick of this guy. Anyway, before we can start catching the tasty fish-
I mean, Water Pokemon... you'll need to take out the two trainers below you.
And no, you're not getting any strategies. All the trainers on the route are in
their low 30s, so you'll be fine.

In Yellow only, a building appears on the left, which is the Surfing Pikachu
minigame. You'll need a Pikachu with Surf acquired from the N64 Stadium game
(or acquired via a GameShark) to participate. For more information on this min-
game, check out section A01; 'Pikachu's Beach'. Don't worry if you can't get a
Surfing Pikachu--you're not missing out on much.
Surf on to the water and catch whatever you haven't got yet. Then start heading
south, taking on all the trainers you meet along the way. First, the trainer
just to the south of the beach.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 48
There's a lot of stuff to catch here if you didn't go on a frenzy with your
Super Rod earlier, but the only new thing to all versions is Seel and its
evolution, Dewgong.
<SEEL (Y)> - Rating: **
I would evaluate Seel here, but the best one is a traded one on Cinnabar
Island, so look there for details. Unfortunately that's only for Red and Blue,
so Yellow ones are stuck with a much lower levelled one. It's okay, but a bit
late in the game to be massively useful since you'll have to grind like crazy.
It's just an inferior Lapras, but hey, if it's cute, why not?
Red and Blue players should catch a Slowpoke and evolve it into Slowbro (or
alternatively catch a Slowbro) to trade for a Lickitung in Route 18.
<LICKITUNG> - Rating: *
Well, Lickitung gets boosted experience at least, but it's far from being a
decent fighter. Many better Normal types exist, if you want to try them.
Anyway, head east, then north and use Strength to push the boulder into the
nearby square hole. If you screw up by pushing it into a corner, leave and re-
enter to reset the puzzle. This applies to all rooms, so remember it well.
Follow the boulder down the hole, then push it in a hole again. Repeat this
process until you fall into a heavy current of water, which will push you to a
different section of the dungeon. Head to the southeast and step on to the tiny
patch of land. Face down and hit A for a hidden <ULTRA BALL>.
Surf north and ascend the steps on to a large rocky plateau. Head west and
follow the path to a ladder, which you should climb. Head up the stairs, then
loop around south and take the ladder here. Head east and examine the rocky
square here for a hidden <NUGGET>. Head back down the ladder to the west, the
one you just came from.
Head east, then go south at the intersection and follow the path down some
steps, then head west. Examine another rocky square here for a hidden <MAX
ELIXER>. Ahead of you are four boulders--we need to push two of them down two
different holes. If we label them--from left to right--A, B, C and D, then push
B left until you can push A south into its hole. Then push D all the way up.
Finally, push C one down, two left, then loop around the hole and push C south.
Done. Fall down either hole afterwards.
Surf all the way north. On a lonely plateau here rests the legend of ice,
Articuno. SAVE BEFOREHAND!
_________________________________________________________
Fated Encounter: Articuno Version: R B Y
---------------------------------------------------------
#144: Articuno ICE / FLY L50 1535 Exp.
~ Peck, Ice Beam
_________________________________________________________
Much the same as Zapdos, there is next to no point in chipping away Articuno's
health, since it will not increase your chances to catch him by very much.
Instead, inflict a status condition on him--SLP and FRZ are the best ones--and
start lobbing Ultra Balls. If you want to know why this is the best strategy,
take a look at capturing Zapdos above, or the Mechanics and Formulae section
for a more in-depth view. Trust me on this.
Peck is harmless, but Ice Beam can freeze your Pokemon. In RBY, that's a Game
Over--Freeze is only curable with items, or getting hit by a Fire attack which
Articuno obviously does not possess. Follow my advice: Slam status on it, chuck
Ultra Balls, reset if you screw up. You'll get him eventually.
___
<ARTICUNO> - Rating: *****
Articuno is simply a fantastic Pokemon with a brilliant stat spread and
brutally powerful STAB moves, and it doesn't need any TMs at all to function
well. I made it an instant team member.
Now, if you heeded my earlier advice, you have an Escaoe Rope or Dig-user on
hand. If you didn't follow my advice, I guess I can find it within myself to
bail you out of this mess.
If, like me, your Pokemon are in bad shape, you'll want to get to a Poke Center
immediately. We could continue west from Seafoam Islands along Route 20, but I
don't fancy coming down Route 19 again, so I'm going to come back to the other
half of Route 20 later on, okay? There are only trainers there, so you're not
missing out on much.
Anyway, to get out of here Escape Rope-free, head south and up the stairs on to
the landmass here. Head up the ladder, loop to the south and climb this ladder.
Now head up the stairs on the landmass to the north, then head to your east and
take the ladder here. Head down the stairs to your southwest, then loop around
north and take the ladder on the tiny plateau here. Finally, head south to exit
the caves.
I don't know about you, but my Pokemon are in terrible shape. Fly to any city
with a Poke Center and take care of yourself, then Fly to Pallet Town, taking a
Surf-user with you. Head to the water to the south of town and hop in, heading
south.

- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 48
Surfing down just a tiny bit revelas an open expanse of tall grass on your
right--unfortunately, the only new thing is Tangela for Red and Blue players.
Everything else is very common muck. Anyway, much like Route 19, you just Surf
down and fight every trainer on the way.
Surf down the left hand side of the route to encounter two trainers sitting on
a platform. Take out the northwest one first:

The main atraction of Cinnabar Island is the Missingno. Glitch and the ability
to catch any wild Pokemon available in the previous area (including Safari Zone
Pokemon catchable by normal means--see section C01; 'The Cinnabar Island
Glitch' for details). Legitimately, Cinnabar is still quite fun--check out the
Pokemon Lab; the big building to the left of the Poke Center. Take out your
fossils (Dome/Helix Fossil, Old Amber) and head inside, where there are three
rooms. The first contains two people who want to trade; in Red and Blue, you'll
get Tangela for Venonat and Electrode for Raichu. In Yellow, you'll get Dewgong
for Growlithe and Rhydon for Golduck. Do whatever you wish--but you can get
these Pokemon in the wild with ease.
In the second room, the man in the corner will fork over <TM35> (Metronome) and
in the last room someone wants to trade Seel for your Ponyta (R/B).
<SEEL (RB)> - Rating: ****
Despite average stats and arriving very late, Seel has all the tools it needs
to succeed--being a Water type on a Fire-dominated Island and gaining boosted
EXP. points are massive pluses. It even gets the brilliant Ice Beam naturally!
You can also get Muk for your Kangaskhan (Y). The guy at the top is the one who
will transform your fossils. You'll have either the Dome or Helix Fossil from
Mt. Moon, which turn into a L30 Kabuto or Omanyte respectively. I also
recommended that you pluck the Old Amber from Pewter museum earlier, which
entitles you to a L30 Aerodactyl. Sweet. That's all for this place.
<OMANYTE> - Rating: ***
A useful Water type that's got an awesome Special stat and a resistance to
Normal moves because of its part Rock typing. It's a bit slow and maybe it
arrives too late, but it can be a solid teammate if you want it.
<KABUTO> - Rating: ***
Not quite as powerful since it has to use non-STAB moves to use its higher
Attack stat, but still useful enough. Average Special gives it usable Water
moves too, and it's merely average in terms of Speed as opposed to bad.
<AERODACTYL> - Rating: **
A terrible movepool outside of Fly, but otherwise can abuse its fantastic Speed
and great Attack to decent effect. Not massively good, but usable if you are
persistent.
The gym in the northeast of the city is closed, so you know what this means.
Yep, long dungeon to trawl through to get the right to challenge the Gym
leader. That dungeon is to the west side of the island, in the form of a large
building. Grab some Great Balls to nab the new wild Pokemon and some Super
Repels (best value for money) to keep away the common muck, then enter.

Lots of Fire types here.
<PONYTA (RB)> - Rating: **
<MAGMAR> - Rating: *
Ponyta and Magmar are new additions (well, unless you Yellow players caught a
Ponyta earlier anyway), but Fire types generally have limited use in RBY and
they're underlevelled at this point. Don't bother, but definitely catch a
Ponyta and run it back to trade for the awesome Seel in the Pokemon Lab next
door.
<KOFFING> - Rating: *
Grimer and Koffing also make appearances, but if you only learn one thing from
this guide, make sure it is this: Being weak to Psychic types is just painting
a great, fat target on your head. Poison types should be avoided like the
plague, unless they have a second type that dampens their weakness. Grimer was
encountered earlier by Yellow players in the Power Plant, at least.
Once inside, head north. Examine the fifth pillar on the right for a hidden
<MOON STONE>, then take the northeast passage past the stairs. You can grab an
<ESCAPE ROPE> on the way. Head back to the stairs and ascend them, then ascend
the stairs next to you.
Inside there is a trainer pacing about. He won't engage you--you'll need to
prompt him to battle.

Absolutely grab <TM14> (Blizzard) next to the statue; it's one of the most

Articuno, who gets it at L51.
Flip the secret statue switch and head all the way left for a <FULL RESTORE>.
Head back to the stairs, but don't take them--instead, head north along the

[ ] TM38 (Fire Blast)
- Recommended Party Avg. Level: 50
Okay, it's time to take on Blaine, the Island's Gym leader. He uses Fire types,
so bring your Water, Rock and Grounds but leave your Grass and Ice types (I
hope to God you're not using Bug types either). Heal up at the Poke Center,
then enter the Gym on the east side of the Island. You need the Secret Key to
enter, so don't deposit it.
I'll show you my team so far, which should be a fairly decent guideline to what
levels you should be at. I'll probably be a bit higher than most of you, since
I've bagged both Zapdos and Articuno:
___
My Team
Golem L51 ~ Rock Throw, Submission, Earthquake, Explosion
Venusaur L51 ~ Tackle, PoisonPowder, Razor Leaf, Growth
Alakazam L47 ~ Psybeam, Recover, Reflect, Psychic
Zapdos L53 ~ ThunderShock, Drill Peck, Thunder
Articuno L50 ~ Peck, Ice Beam
We're getting close to the end of the game now, so it is important to have a
team of L50s now or very soon. Otherwise, the Elite Four will cream you (unless
you're an expert and have specially trained your Pokemon). You will want
something as varied as this, with similar types and perhaps a Water move or a
bulky Normal type in there as well. If I could be bothered to train one, I'd
have a Snorlax with Amnesia, Rest, Body Slam and Surf. But I'm lazy, so I'm
going to nab that L50 Moltres in Victory Road. Probably.
Note that, as always, this team is not supposed to be what I think is the best
team. For a start, Rock Slide would be better than Rock Throw and Thunderbolt
would be a better choice than Thunder. I'm a bit stingy with TMs, you see.
___
This Gym requires you to answer a series of Yes/No questions to proceed. You
examine the console in each room to get the question. By answering it
correctly, that room's trainer can be bypassed, but if you answer incorrectly,
you'll be forced to fight them.
Either way, if you want to fight all the trainers, it doesn't matter how you
answer; if you answer correctly you can still fight the trainer afterwards. If
you answer incorrectly, you fight the trainer, but the door is then opened for
you anyway. So yeah, get started already:
Q1: Caterpie evolves into Butterfree? YES.
Technically it evolves into Metapod, but it does eventually evolve into
Butterfree. I said no, but it turns out the answer is yes.

Blaine likes to use Super Potions, although this should only be a mild
annoyance. Growlithe and Ponyta should pose no threat. Then we have two evolved
forms for Red and Blue and three for Yellow.
Rapidash can be pretty annoying with Fire Spin, but thankfully it doesn't do
too much damage. Put it out of its misery with a swift Surf or Earthquake.
Arcanine is the beast of the group--the highest level and the powerful Fire
Blast that will put a dent in anything that isn't Water, Rock or Fire. Take
Down also hurts non Rock types, so try Golem or a sturdy Water type like
Blastoise. In Yellow, it packs Flamethrower, which hurts, and Reflect, which
halves physical damage against its team for five turns. Take it out ASAP.
The only Pokemon I haven't covered is exclsuive to Yellow; Ninetales is, if you
don't faint it quickly, very irritating. It packs Confuse Ray and Flamethrower,
which in tandem will quickly smack you with damage. Switch around to avoid
confusion and make sure your Water or Rock type is available to sponge up those
Flamethrowers.
___
Once you beat him, you get the VolcanoBadge, which secretly raises the Special
stat of your team members for in-game battles to 1.125x its original amount.
Sweet. You'll also receive <TM38> (Fire Blast), a 120 Power, 85% accurate Fire
type move. It's a great power-over-accuracy alternative to Flamethrower.
Fly to Viridian City. It's nearing the end-game now.

_________________________________________________________
Rhyhorn and Rhydon should be no problem--they've got such low Speed and Special
stats that one Razor Leaf or Surf will annihilate them. Don't worry about Horn
Drill being a one-hit-KO move because it only works when the user moves first.
This ain't gonna happen, since the Rhyhorn family are VERY slow. Dugtrio is a
pain with Sand-Attack and Slash (Earthquake in Yellow), but it's too frail to
last long (use Ice Beam/Blizzard, Razor Leaf and Surf).
Then in Yellow, we have Persian. Its moves are irritaing, but especially so is
Double Team; don't let it pull off too many of these of you'll be there all
day. And then in both versions we have the Nidos. Body Slam and Thrash are the
moves to watch out for in Red and Blue, so take them out quickly with Ice,
Psychic, Water or Ground attacks (you should have at least one of those, if not
all).
In Yellow, you might be tempted to avoid their Earthquakes by using a Flying
type. You'll have to be certain that you can score a very quick one-hit-KO or
you'll get hit with Thunder. My L50 Articuno took them both down in one hit
with Ice Beam, for reference. Otherwise, use a bulky Psychic (Hypno or Alakazam
with Reflect up). Use the same move types I mentioned for Red and Blue and you
should be fine.
Giovanni likes to waste his time using Guard Specs. Treat these as a free turn
to attack.
___
After the battle, Giovanni forks over the EarthBadge, which makes all traded
Pokemon up to and including L100 obey you (any higher--those obtained through a
glitch or hacking--are still disobediant, however). He also hands over <TM27>
(Fissure), a one-hit-KO move with 30% accuracy that only works against slower
opponents. However, like I mentioned back in the Celadon City portion of this
guide, if you use an X Accuracy first, the move is boosted to 99.6% accuracy
(but still only works provided you're faster than the foe).
You can talk to him again afterwards to make him say some stuff and then go
away, but it's not really necessary.
Heal up, prepare yourself, then take the west exit out to Route 22.

_________________________________________________________
*If you skipped the Route 22 Rival battle, the game considers the fight lost.
You're going to need to be in the high 40s in level to succesfully take on your
Rival. Your team should look something like his--that is, good levels, lots of
type versatility and somewhat decent movesets.
However, despite his high levels--potentially higher than yours--he's
controlled by utterly moronic AI which will never switch, even when faced with
a type disadvantage. Therefore, being a few levels shy of his Pokemon won't
hurt much.
First up in Red and Blue are Pidgeot and Rhyhorn, neither of whom will pose
much of a problem--Pidgeot bites Rock, Electric and Ice attacks, while Rhyhorn
fails hardest against Ice and especially Water and Grass moves. Neither Pokemon
possesses any dangerous moves (even Rhyhorn's one-hit-KO Horn Drill won't work
if he moves last in a turn, which he will because he's so slow).
Then we have two of Exeggcute, Growlithe and Gyarados. Smack Exeggcute with
Fire, Ice or Flying; Growlithe with Water, Rock or Ground; and Gyarados with
Electric for instant wins. Then he'll send out Alakazam. This guy has dangerous
moves, so send out your strongest Pokemon and lay down your strongest moves,
then hope for the best (that's all you can do versus Psychics--just don't send
out Poison or Fighting types).
Finally, he'll send out his starter. Each one of them has an amazing STAB move,
so make sure to take them out ASAP, using Fire, Ice, Flying or Psychic for
Venusaur; Rock, Water, Ice or Electric for Charizard; and Grass or Electric for
Blastoise. That's all there is to it.
Yellow players will first square off against Sandslash, who falls to Grass,
Water and Ice attacks (see how useful Ice is?). Then Exeggcute, who falls to
Fire, Ice and Flying. Next, he'll send out two of Magneton, Cloyster and
Growlithe. Magneton's only weakness is Ground, so exploit that. Cloyster falls
to Fighting, Electric, Rock and Grass attacks, although the first two are most
effective since Cloyster has super-effective moves against Rock and Grass
types. Finally, Growlithe is really weak, so Water, Rock or Ground will finish
it off.
Next, he'll send out Kadabra--no problem if you've dealt with Sabrina--and
finally his starter. Vaporeon should be taken care of with Electric or Grass.
Flareon falls to the same attacks as any other Fire type, namely Water, Rock
and Ground. Fianlly, Jolteon can't do much to Ground types, so use one of
those.
___
Your Rival is about 12 levels lower than the toughest trainer you will soon
have to face as the last 'boss' of the game, just to let you know. Head back to
the Poke Center, heal up and then make sure you bring a Surf and Strength user
with you. You might also want to get some Great/Ultra Balls (for the high level
wild Pokemon), an Escape Rope or two, a few potent healing items and a handful
of Super Repels. Yep, it's dungeon crawling time.
Continue west through Route 22 and enter the big building at the end. Head
north and the guard will check that you have the BoulderBadge before allowing
you passage into...

There's not much to do on this Route, except show the guards all your flashy
Badges so they let you proceed. The path is fairly linear, but there are a few
hidden goodies. After getting your RainbowBadge checked, you can fish for some
Pokemon if you want, then continue.
After the SoulBadge check, head north on to the 2x2 island and examine the
northwest patch for a hidden <MAX ETHER>. Continue on until you pass the
MarshBadge checkpoint and hit dry land. Turn east into the grass (nothing new,
but all high levels--don't waste your energy!) and examine the southeast tree
for a hidden <ULTRA BALL>.
After the VolcanoBadge checkpoint, head north until you hit a 2x2 grass patch,
then examine the northernmost rock piece to the left of the grass for a hidden
<FULL RESTORE>. I think that's it for hidden items, so just continue through to
Victory Road, a hellhole full of boulder puzzles, high-level trainers and wild
Pokemon and the legendary Pokemon--Moltres.

You've seen all of Victory Road's wild Pokemon before, although not at this
level. The only unique Pokemon is, of course, Moltres. It's near the end of the
dungeon, so I hope you've got some status to slap on it and a bunch of Ultra
Balls. If not, don't worry too much--we can exit the cave at the end, stock up,
then come right back. It'll wait patiently for you to catch it.
As you enter, you'll spot a boulder on your left. Get a Pokemon that knows
Strength to push it all the way over to the right side and on to a strange
circular switch. I won't insult your intelligence by telling you exactly how to
do that, but let's just say that you can exit and re-enter if you foul up.
Climb up the stairs on to the plateau and work your way around the east path.
At the intersection, take a right and head down the stiars, then follow the
path to a boulder. There are two items here that you can get--unfortunately,
gaining access to one will block you from getting the other, so to get both
items you'll have to grab one, then exit and re-enter the cave to reset the
boulder, then get the other. The items are a <RARE CANDY> and <TM43> (Sky
Attack).
Head back to the intersection I mentioned, then battle the trainer on the left.

<MOLTRES> - Rating: **
Unlike the other two legendary birds who are nothing short of fantastic,
Moltres is actually pretty trashy. This is mostly because there are very few
fights left in the game, and Moltres isn't useful for any of them. Bummer.
Return through the ladder you came up, then head east to loop around and then

Okay, here's how it works for those who have been in a coma for the last
decade. The Elite Four is a series of four consecutive battles, where you are
not allowed to visit a Poke Center in between. You can use items, save your
game and switch your first party member, but that's about it. Once you've
creamed the four trainers, I'll try not to spoil much, but be prepared for a
fifth fight against the game's toughest trainer. Again, you can't visit a Poke
Center in between fights. Oh, and losing against even one means you must fight
them all over again.
You might as well bust out all the healing items you've stocked up on so far,
and then don't be tight about buying some at the Mart over on the left. After
all, you won't be spending your money on much else. For maximum coverage and
power, your team should be composed of the following types with the following
moves: Electric (Thunderbolt or Thunder), Ice (Ice Beam or Blizzard), one of
either Grass (Razor Leaf) or Water (Surf or maybe Hydro Pump), Psychic
(Psychic) and Ground (Earthquake or perhaps Dig). You don't need six members,
but if you do and they're all about L50, then that's just a bonus.
___
My Team
Golem L55 ~ Rock Throw, Submission, Earthquake, Explosion
Venusaur L53 ~ Tackle, PoisonPowder, Razor Leaf, Growth
Alakazam L52 ~ Psybeam, Recover, Reflect, Psychic
Zapdos L54 ~ ThunderShock, Drill Peck, Thunder
Articuno L52 ~ Peck, Ice Beam, Blizzard
Moltres L50 ~ Peck, Fire Spin
Moltres is entirely filler, but it's the highest level I've got besides my main
five. Yeah, I know I'm pretty cheap for using the three legendaries, but
honestly, I've spent a long time on this guide and didn't want to spend further
hours grinding away an alternative Pokemon. Anyway, you'll notice that all the
types I've mentioned above are totally covered, so if you have something like
this you should be fine. For discussions on the best Elite Four team, see
section T02; 'In-Game (Elite Four) Teams'.
Note that this team is nowhere near the 'best' team ever. It's just something I
threw together in a relatively quick time to beat the League with. If I wanted
to improve upon it, I could come up with a much better team, which would look
something like this:
Golem ~ Rock Slide, Earthquake, Body Slam, Submission/Explosion
Venusaur ~ Swords Dance, Body Slam/Hyper Beam, Razor Leaf, Sleep Powder
Alakazam ~ Psychic, Recover, Reflect, Seismic Toss
Zapdos ~ Thunderbolt, Thunder Wave, Drill Peck, Rest/Reflect
Starmie ~ Surf, Ice Beam/Blizzard, Thunderbolt, Recover
Snorlax ~ Body Slam, Hyper Beam, Rest, Earthquake
Again, not the best team ever, but certainly much better than the one I'm
using.
___
If you just can't beat the Elite Four and you've followed all my advice, then
I'm afraid you'll just have to grind up some levels. Sorry.
Make sure you save before you head up the staircase at the back. The only way
out once you go in is to beat all five trainers consecutively, or lose half
your money by losing the battle. Unless you're fairly certain you can win,
train some more. If you think you can do it, I'd recommend saving before
confronting each Elite Four member (besides the first, of course) so that if it
doesn't go well you can always restart that battle.
Anyway, enough with the preamble. Let's do this.

_________________________________________________________
Since these are the hardest battles in the game, now might be a good time to
learn about exploiting the game's moronic AI if you didn't read section M01;
'AI Mechanics'. Essentially, trainers that are supposed to be 'smart' (Gym
Leaders, Elite Four, high-level trainers) have an AI that forces them to use
super-effective moves *even when that move does no damage*. For example, Rest
is a Psychic type move and so is 'super-effective' against Fighting types,
despite doing no damage. A Fighting type can come in and deck Dewgong with a
swift Submission and all Dewgong will do is Rest.
In addition, trainers will NEVER attack with moves that are 'not very
effective' unless forced to (e.g. Disabling valid moves, having four not very
effective moves, etc.)
Most of Lorelei's Pokemon are capable of causing a Freeze status, which, in
RBY, means your Pokemon is offically out of action until you use a Full Heal or
Ice Heal on it. Lorelei will also occasionally use a Super Potion, which should
just delay her imminent demise.
I noticed that, with my Venusaur, Dewgong still used the 'super-effective'
Rest. It didn't use Aurora Beam, but that might just be because of luck. So
Grass/Poison types should be fairly safe as well. Thus, use Grass types with
Razor Leaf or an Electric type. Zapdos fits the bill as an Electric type, but
must be wary of its Ice weakness--luckily, its high Special stat should soak up
some of the damage. Dewgong's moves and stats aren't the scariest, so hopefully
you shouldn't be troubled by it.
Cloyster has a monstrous Defense stat, but it's rather slow and has an average
Special stat, so smash it with a swift Special sweeper; the best ones would be,
again, Grass (watch out for Aurora/Ice Beam) and Electric, with a powerful hit
taking it out in one. I OHKO'd with Venusaur's Razor Leaf.
Slowbro is up next and depending on your version he'll have good or poor moves.
In Red and Blue, his only damaging attack is Water Gun, so if you send out
something resistant to Water (Grass, Dragon or Water) you won't get damaged.
Too many Amnesias will make it hard to take down though. In Yellow, it's
equipped with the much better combination of Surf and Psychic, which are deadly
when used with Amnesia. Luckily, I took it out in one hit with Razor Leaf--if
you can take it out in one hit then go ahead; it's too slow to hit first. Grass
and Electric are your best friends once more.
Jynx is likely to be a problem--it critical hit Ice Punched my Moltres for an
OHKO--since it only has Bug, Rock and Fire for weaknesses. Rock types often
have a secondary type with an Ice weakness (Ground, Flying) so Fire is the best
bet. However, Fire types are largely not very useful so if you don't have one
(or it's useless, like my Moltres), you might just have to hit it hard with
your strongest Pokemon and then heal them up after the battle. It might also
use Lovely Kiss, but you should have your Poke Flute for that. Its Defense is
atrocious, however, so hit it with a physical attack like Drill Peck or
something for a decent chunk of damage. I used Zapdos.
Lastly, we have Lapras, a living tank of a Pokemon. With massive HP and
respectable Def and Spc stats, this thing isn't going down easily. Plus, it has
two 120 x 1.5 (STAB) = 180 base power moves in Hydro Pump and Blizzard, and a
30% chance to paralyse you with Body Slam. Its Speed is below average, so I
managed to fire off two Razor Leafs to kill it, while I got hit by Blizzard for
about 2/3rds of Venusaurs health bar. If you're faster and have a strong, STAB,
super-effective attack, you should be okay.
___
If you beat Lorelei, well done. That's a good sign for beating the rest of the
Elite Four--Ice is a fantastic type and beating it IS difficult. Although the
next two Elite Four members are higher-levelled, their type choices aren't as
good, so they should be much easier. Well, I found them easier at least. Heal
up and save if you want, then proceed into the next room to fight the next
trainer--a user of Fighting types.

_________________________________________________________
Consider Bruno a breather after Lorelei. He'll try to boost his Pokemons'
Defenses with X Defend which is a massive waste since we will be using Special
attacks to hit his Pokemon hard on their MUCH weaker defensive side.
Onix is a non-issue--even Water Gun and Vine Whip can take this guy out. His
Special is horrendous, but don't try attacking him physically. He's also not
particularly speedy, so you should have nothing to complain about with either
Onix.
Hitmonchan has a horrendous Special as well, which means that Fire, Ice, and
ThunderPunch all have pathetic power. This means that a swift Psychic will take
care of him very easily. The only remotely scary things are Mega Punch in RBY,
which is moderately powerful, and Double Team in Yellow, which is more
irritaing than deadly. Very easy.
Hitmonlee is marginally more threatening because it has decent Fighting and
Normal attacks running off its high Attack. A swift Psychic will still OHKO it
though; just deal with him quickly (most Psychics are fast anyway) and you'll
have no issues.
Machamp is Bruno's biggest brusier, but even he keels before a well-aimed
Psychic. His strongest attack is Submission, but he won't use it if you send
out a Psychic or Flying type, so feel free to use those. In Red and Blue, that
will limit him to his non-damaging moves and Fissure (which he won't use
against Flying types and is totally ineffective against anything faster than
Machamp) and in Yellow his best move then becomes Karate Chop. With its
critical hit factored in, it has 100 effective base power, which isn't
something to laugh at coming off his massive Attack. Still, you shouldn't worry
about it if you have a decent Psychic or Flying type.
___
Bruno was very easy. You shouldn't be any worse for wear except for your PP for
Psychic being three down. Save and heal up (???) before taking on the next
member of the Elite Four.

_________________________________________________________
Theoretically, Agatha is the Ghost type Master, but in actuality all of her
Pokemon only have the Poison type in common. In fairness, using only Ghost
types would limit her to the Gastly line. Anyway, Agatha hits things off with a
Gengar. RB players will most likely get hit by Confuse Ray or Hypnosis or both.
Switch out for the former or use a Poke Flute immediately for the latter to
avoid Dream Eater (which only works if the foe is asleep). In RB, it also has
Night Shade, which will deal 56HP damage when it hits. This shouldn't be a
massive problem.
To defeat it, use a Psychic type or a Ground type. It has a high Special so
will sponge up some damage from Psychic, but it has Mega Drain to combat Ground
types in Yellow. Dugtrio is fast enough and powerful enough to kill it, but
Golem will have to eat a 4x effective Mega Drain. It's only 40 base power
though, and my Golem survived to fire back a one hit KO with Earthquake.
Golbat's next, but this thing doesn't really have much going for it. Its most
damaging attack is Wing Attack, which has a paltry 35 x 1.5 (STAB) = 52.5 base
power. It's more likely to annoy you with confusion, but if you switch around
and hit it with a fast Psychic (Alakzam), Electric (Zapdos), Ice (Articuno) or
Rock type, then it won't pose any threat.
Haunter is a weak Gengar, so just follow my strategy for Gengar. Only it's
easier this time. Arbok is like Golbat in that it's weak and has no good moves.
It'll annoy with confusion and Wrap... that's about it. The main problem Agatha
poses is with her final Pokemon; a Level 60 Gengar. In Red and Blue, Dream
Eater won't work since it has no Sleep moves. It'll use Confuse Ray, Night
Shade and Toxic. Switch out to rid yourself of confusion and revert Toxic
poison to normal PSN, and deal with Night Shade like you did previously. Ground
and Psychic types are A-OK.
In Yellow, it retains Hypnosis over Toxic and slaps Psychic over Night Shade.
Your own Psychic type will resist Psychic and can hit back super-effectively
with its own Psychic. Hypnosis is cured through Poke Flute and Confuse is cured
by switching or riding it out. Dream Eater should be a non-issue if you have
the Flute. Oh, and Agatha uses Super Potions when her Pokemon are on low
health, but this should barely affect the battle outcome.
___
Agatha was moderately tough, but still not much compared to Lorelei. This next
trainer should change all that--he has high level Dragon Pokemon, which you
probably haven't fought before. Their only effective weakness is Ice, so I hope
you have one. Dragons also resist Grass, Fire, Water and Electric attacks, so
be warned. You'll automatically engage him when you stand in the square below
or to the left of him, so make sure you prepare yourself before you go near
him.

_________________________________________________________
Lance doesn't mess around--he uses Hyper Potion, which restores 200HP to a
Pokemon, when his Pokemon's health is low. If you don't think you can down your
foe in one hit, try using a low power attack and then your finisher to avoid
him using it.
Lead off with an Electric type to counter Gyarados--its only other weakness is
Rock and it'll decimate them with Hydro Pump. So yeah, let loose with
Thunderbolt or, if needs must, Thunder, to fry the leviathan. Dragon Rage does
40HP damage, so no issues there, and it's all he'll use if you have a Dragon
type against him. Otherwise, he might use Hyper Beam, which has 150 base power
but requires a recharge turn if the foe doesn't faint. All of Lance's Pokemon
have this, but Rock types resist it and Ghosts are immune to it. Honestly
though, use an Electric type--Gyarados has a 4x weakness to it so he won't last
long.
The Dragonairs are up next. In Red and Blue they're identical and Hyper Beam is
their most dangerous move. Since it has the Psychic type move Agility, this is
all it'll use if you happen to send out a Poison or Fighting type, so feel free
to abuse this mechanic. In Yellow, however, one is tailored as an Electric
attacker and the other as a Water/Ice attacker. A Ground type can handle the
first and a Water type with an Ice attack can handle the second. All versions
of Dragonair absolutely hate Ice attacks though--they croaked it in one hit
versus my Articuno's Ice Beam.
Aerodactyl is up next, with weaknesses against Ice, Electric, Rock and Water.
You'll have at least one of these I hope, so hit him with whatever. You only
have to avoid Flying and Normal attacks (a Rock type resists both) and it has
low Defenses, so any super-effective move should OHKO it.
Dragonite is Lance's bad boy and it will give you hell if you don't have an Ice
type. If you do, like me, then Ice Beam or Blizzard is more than sufficient to
take him out since he has a 4x weakness to Ice attacks. If you ignored my
repeated advice about getting a good Ice move, then this'll be difficult. You
can exploit his use of Agility in Red and Blue (read Dragonair, above), but
Slam and Hyper Beam are both coming off the game's highest Attack, so be
careful.
In Yellow, the bad boy has Thunder, Blizzard, Fire Blast--the unholy elemental
trinity--and Hyper Beam, the meanest attack under the sun (if it KOs you). This
is nothing to laugh at and Dragonite can hit EVERYTHING at least neutrally with
these attacks, if not super-effectively. Only Alakazam on my team is neutral to
all of them, but Hyper Beam would easily KO him. The best you can hope for here
is a ridiculously powerful Pokemon, lots of item usage and a bit of luck. You
will suffer for not having an Ice type. Out of interest, its only other
weakness is Rock.
___
Do not head through into the next room without preparing first--IF YOU ENTER
THE NEXT ROOM, YOU WILL AUTOMATICALLY FIGHT THE CHAMPION. MAKE SURE TO ORGANISE
YOUR PARTY AND SAVE BEFORE ENTERING. Yeah... unfortunately, somebody has
already beaten the Elite Four just moments ago, and to claim the title of
Champion, you'll have to defeat this newly-crowned trainer. Can you guess who
it is? Hint: they have a very well-balanced team.

_________________________________________________________
*If you skipped the Route 22 Rival battle, the game considers the fight lost.
Since he has vastly different teams depending on the version, I'll split this
section up. The only thing he has in common is that he uses Full Restores at
low HP. Interestingly enough, the battle animations will show even if you opted
to turn them off in the 'Option' menu. Makes it more dramatic, I suppose.
Red/Blue
----------
Pidgeot finally gained some ammunition with Sky Attack and Mirror Move. Sky
Attack takes two turns to charge, though, and Mirror Move fires the move the
foe just used right back at them. In other words, Pidgeot is still terrible.
Any swift Electric, Ice or Rock attack will own it.
Next up is Alakazam. Thankfully, it's his lowest level, but it's still very
tough--use a Pokemon with high Attack and Special (I used Zapdos with Drill
Peck on the Yellow version) or a Normal type like Snorlax to sponge his
attacks. His Defense is pitiful so it shouldn't be too bad. Since Psychic types
'resist' everything except Recover, that's all he'll use if you send out a
Psychic type. Therefore, you can try to force him down by using your own
Psychic.
Now we have Rhydon. It's far too slow to make use of Horn Drill, so its best
attack is Fury Attack. This is certainly managable and a swift Surf/Razor
Leaf/Water Gun/Vine Whip/Bubble/Absorb will make quick work of him.
Your Rival will then revert to his Grass/Fire/Water trio. You'll face two of
Exeggutor, Arcanine or Gyarados. Exeggutor has no really threatening attacks
and Hypnosis can be cured by Poke Flute. Use Fire, Ice or Flying moves against
him. Arcanine's best move is Take Down--a tough Water, Rock or Ground type
takes him out easily. Finally, Gyarados is identical to Lance's, only a higher
level, so use the same strategy (hint: use Electric types) that you did for
Lance's Gyara'.
Finally, his starter. Venusaur is the most threatening with Razor Leaf, Mega
Drain, SolarBeam and Growth. You'll notice that all his damaging attacks are
Grass types, meaning anything that resists them (Bug, Dragon, Fire, Grass,
Poison, Flying) will only ever see Growth. Nifty. Use an Ice, Flying or Fire
type for best results.
Charizard has Fire and Normal attacks, meaning a Rock type can resist every
move he has and counter with a 4x effective Rock Throw/Slide. If you don't have
a Rock type, try a bulky Water type to avoid Fire Blast, or just hit him with
his weaknesses--Water, Rock, Ice and Electric. Last of all is Blastoise with
Blizzard and Hydro Pump. If you resist those two moves (Water types do) then
you'll only ever see Bite. Hit him with a powerful Grass or Electric move for
best results.
Yellow
------
He'll start with Sandslash. This guy has Earthquake, but it's slow so if you
can fire of a quick Razor Leaf, Ice Beam/Blizzard or Surf you'll have no
problems. Next up is Alakazam, who is largely the same as his RB version so
look above for a strategy. The last of his 'consistent' Pokemon is Exeggutor--
again, he is covered above, except this one has Leech Seed which is pathetic.
The Yellow rival opts for a Fire/Water/Electric rotation, starting with two out
of Ninetales, Cloyster and Magneton. Ninetales's attacks are quite weak, and if
you resist Fire you'll never see Fire Spin. Rock types will only ever see
Confuse Ray, so if you don't mind that you can hope for a lucky hit. Otherwise,
use Rock, Water or Ground like always.
Cloyster is like always--slow but with massive defense. I took it down with one
Razor Leaf and I'm sure Thunder/Thunderbolt would do just as nicely, but if you
can't knock it out in one hit then just make sure you can survive Ice attacks
(you won't see any if you resist them) and Clamp (a trapping Water type move).
Magneton falls like any other Electric type--against Ground attacks. It can
also only use Swift against them. Otherwise, you'll just have to hit it
powerfully while sucking up a Thunder Wave. We'll move on to his starter next,
since that's the main attraction.
Vaporeon has Aurora Beam and Hydro Pump, but a swift Electric or Grass type
won't be hit by those if it can loose off a Thunderbolt or Razor Leaf (Grass
types be careful of Aurora Beam). Flareon functions similarly to Ninetales in
that it can't do much to Rock and bulky Water types--its best move is
Flamethrower but you'll never see it if you're a Water type (since you resist
all its moves as a Rock type, you might see it then). Rock, Water and Ground
kill it.
Lastly, Jolteon can only Pin Missile against a Rock/Ground type and adds Quick
Attack to that mix if it faces a Ground type (without Rock as a type). These
attacks are pathetic and an Earthquake against its poor Defense will quickly
finish off your Rival and crown you Champion.
___
If you succeed, congratulations. Honestly, well done--that wasn't easy and I'm
willing to bet that your Rival was at least 10 levels higher than you. So find
a way to reward yourself and then watch the closing ceremony. I have to say, I
feel a bit sorry for your Rival in the proceedings.
After you get your Pokemon inducted in the Hall of Fame (you can access this
from your PC now at any time), the credits will roll. You have to watch these,
I'm afraid--I found out the hard way when I turned the game off and had to
fight my Rival again--and then the game will auto-save.
Back at the title screen, if you press 'Continue', you'll notice that you end
up in Pallet Town, outside your house. Talk to your Mom (Mum!) to heal your
battered team, and the world of Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow is yours to
explore! Also, if you had the battle animations turned off, like me, you'll
want to turn them back off again in the 'Option' menu since your last fight
with your Rival turned them on automatically.
But before you revel in your new Champion status, there's one more thing to do
before you can confidently say that you have 'completed' RBY. We're going to
venture into the 'Unknown Dungeon', a cave filled with L60-odd Pokemon and the
most powerful Pokemon in the game (and easily the strongest Pokemon to exist
relative to the generation it appears in).
I speak, of course, of none other than the horrendously powerful Psychic
Pokemon, Mewtwo. He is L70, so be sure you can handle that before following the
section of the walkthrough. As always, to catch a tough Pokemon, be sure to
bring plenty of Ultra Balls and a status-inducer--preferably Sleep or Freeze--
to get the job done as well as you can. Otherwise, feel free to use your Master
Ball if you haven't already--there isn't anything else worth using it on.
Get yourself a Fly-user and head to Cerulean City. Deposit your Fly-user and
take out a Surf-user. Buy a few healing items and an Escape Rope or two,
deposit your useless items in the PC, then proceed north up the Nugget Bridge.
Head left after crossing it and get into the water. Surf down and follow the
path to find a cave entrance. It was blocked before, but now you've beaten the
League, the man will let you pass.
Before we enter though, we should tackle one last trainer--the last one in the
game (if you don't include Elite Four rematches). Head west from the cave
entrance to encounter a Lass.

There's only one new Pokemon available here: Lickitung for Yellow players. If
you're going for all in-game trades, catch one to trade for Dugtrio in Route
11.
Red/Blue
----------
Follow the linear path and head past the ladder into the water. Loop around and
take the ladder on the landmass to the north. Head south down here and grab the
<PP UP> to the east, then return up the ladder you just used. Get back into the
water and head west, grabbing a <MAX ELIXER> on your way. Keep going west and
dismount on to the land here. Grab the <NUGGET> and head down the ladder.
There is only one path to follow here (although it branches off occasionally),
so just follow it to the next ladder and grab the <FULL RESTORE> on the way.
Once you ascend the ladder, check the white rock to your southwest for a hidden
<RARE CANDY>, then leap into the water and grab the <FULL RESTORE> just over to
the left.
Get back on to the landmass you were just on and take the southeast stairs
down, then follow this pathway west until you come across a ladder. Take it.
From the ladder here, take a right, then head south at the second intersection.
Once you hit the south wall, hug it all the way to the left (pick up the <ULTRA
BALL> en route), then hug the west wall all the way to the north to get to
another ladder.
Follow this short path to another ladder, which you should take. Swing a right
on this floor for a <MAX REVIVE>, then follow the winding path to the west.
It's a long path and you'll grab an <ULTRA BALL> in plain sight on the way.
Also, when you reach the northeast corner of the cave, examine the white rock
here for a hidden <ULTRA BALL>. Now it's simply a case of following the path
all the way down to Mewtwo--see below for strategies on catching him.
Yellow
------
Follow the path through the water to the west and the narrow northern path for
a <MAX ELIXER>. Hop back in the water and follow the path west to a ladder,
which you should climb. On this floor, head northeast to grab an <ULTRA BALL>,
then head in the opposite direction, past the ladder and through a winding path
east until you reach a north-south intersection. Head north and examine the
standalone rock for a hidden <PP UP>. Grab the <MAX REVIVE> to the east. Take
the path to the east, which heads south, then loops around north to a ladder.
Take the ladder down to the first floor, then head down into the water and head
southeast for a <RARE CANDY>. Exit the water to the north and examine the
standalone rock to the west (directly above the ladder and below the item ball)
for a hidden <PP UP>. Grab the item ball to the north, which contains an <ULTRA
BALL>, then continue on the west path to take the next ladder up.
Follow the path here and head east at the intersection, hugging the north wall,
to find a <FULL RESTORE>. Head back to the intersection and go south this time
to eventually end up at a ladder. Descend it, then take the southeast path for
a <MAX REVIVE>. Head west along the path here and you'll end up at another
ladder to climb up.
Follow the path here (the split in the path ends up at the same place anyway)
and head south to grab a <RARE CANDY>, then head north to desecend yet another
ladder. Follow the short path to another ladder, then follow this pathway until
you hit an intersection. Head east for a <MAX ELIXER>, then return and head
south. The lone white rock just before the water's edge houses a hidden <PP
UP>.
Get into the water and grab the <MAX REVIVE> and <ULTRA BALL> on the plateau to
the left, then head east through the currents and along the winding pathway on
land. Grab the <ULTRA BALL> in the northeast corner when the path splits, then
follow it south all the way down to Mewtwo.
Mewtwo

ABSOLUTELY SAVE BEFOREHAND, unless you're using the Master Ball (unless you're
going to catch glitch Pokemon, now is the best time to use it).

Fated Encounter: Mewtwo Version: R B Y
---------------------------------------------------------
#150: Mewtwo PSY L70 2200 Exp.
~ Swift, Psychic, Barrier, Recover
_________________________________________________________
If you've been following my guide so far, you'll know that, short of using a
Master Ball, the best way to catch a legendary is by inflicting it with Sleep
or Freeze, then throwing Ultra Balls at it until you strike lucky. There is
next to no point in lowering his HP as the catch formula increases your chances
by about 2% if you get him down to very low HP. I wouldn't bother, so just give
him Sleep or Freeze, then start lobbing those Ultra Balls.
Mewtwo is more difficult to catch, however, because he boasts an awesome
moveset. Swift never misses, but is easy to handle. Psychic is devastating and
should be avoided at all costs--Mewtwo's Special is far too high for you to
survive too many Psychic hits, especially if, like me, you're fresh out of the
Pokemon League. Barrier doubles, then triples, then quadruples his Defense
before it stops having an effect, so damaging it physically will be just as
hard as it is specially. Finally, Recover is annoying as always, but thankfully
doesn't cure him of staus ailments.
If you're following this strategy, which boasts a minimum chance of ~17.22%
(assuming you Sleep or Freeze), then Barrier and Recover shouldn't be any
problem and Swift isn't anything to get upset about. Therefore, just pray that
Mewtwo's AI doesn't get cruel and end up using Psychic on every available turn.
You'll bag him eventually.

<MEWTWO>
Mewtwo is undoubtedly the most powerful Pokemon in the game and now almost
certainly your strongest team member. No questions asked--it's simply a
monster.
Use the Escape Rope I told you to pack or just backtrack your way out using the
following version specific instructions. They're essentially just following the
directions I've already given you in reverse, so if you can remember the route
you took then you don't have to follow these instructions--there are no new
items to get. However, if you've forgotten how to get back out, they should be
helpful.
Red/Blue
--------
The path back from Mewtwo on this floor is pretty linear. After the second body
of water, take the left path at the fork. Keep following the path until you see
a ladder to your north--keep following the path and takethe next set of stairs
up the plateau, then head west and take the ladder you just saw. On the next
floor, snake around the tiny path and take the other ladder.
On this floor, follow the path and head west at the fork. Keep going and head
east at the next fork, then north at the fork imediately after that. At the
next fork, head all the way west until you see a ladder, which you should
descend.
Head down the stairs and follow the path. After ascending the next plateau head
left around the rocks and go into the water. Follow the body of water and take
the very last set of stairs up on to the plateau once the water pathway ends.
Ignore the ladder and descend the other set of stairs on this plateau, then
just head south to find the exit.
Yellow
------
The path is pretty linear back from Mewtwo--ascend the first plateau you come
across, then descend it on its west side. Keep following the path and head into
the body of water, exiting north at the first opportunity. Keep going north and
take a left at the fork, following the twisted path up a plateau. Take the
ladder here. On this next floor, take the small pathway round to another
ladder.
Head south and immediately east at the fork here. Take either path at the fork
here since they both go to the same place, then head east and up to the ladder
here. Follow the pathway until you reach a plateau, which you should ascend.
Climb the ladder here.
This pathway is long and only has one fork--you should go west and descend the
ladder at the end there. Descend the plateau and follow the path. Ignore the
plateau you come across and take the ladder to the east.
Another long pathway here--take the first fork west and the second fork west
again. At the third fork head north, then north again and into the ladder.
Follow the pathway into the water and surf east as far as you can. Disembark at
the very end and follow the pathway out to the exit.
___
As far as the handheld RPG experience goes, you're now free to catch and evolve
Pokemon to complete your 'Dex and fight the Elite Four multiple times, but
you're essentially done unless you want to complete the 'Dex. Once you do, head
to Celadon Mansion (where you received the Eevee) and speak to the head Game
Developer for a certificate--a virtual piece of paper congratulating you on
your completion of the Pokedex. Joy. A winner is you.
Well congratulations on basically completing the game. Honestly well done,
especially if this was your first time! Unfortunately, unlike later games in
the series, there's not much to do now except fill out the Pokedex. Once you've
filled it (Mew is not required), talk to the Game Designer in Celadon City--in
the building where Eevee is--for the Diploma which basically says you've
completed the game. Well done you!
However, there's much more to Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow--see the other
sections of this guide for various ways of extending your gameplay hours--and
you'll soon find out that the RPG section of Pokemon is merely the tip of the
iceberg. If you don't know where to start, I'd highly recommend sections V. and
VI. of this guide. Alternatively, if that wasn't enough RPG for you, consider
checking out section A02; 'Self-Imposed Challenges' for ideas on how to replay
the game with an added level of difficulty.
Or you could always move on to another game in the series if your Pokemon
cravings haven't quite been fulfilled ;).

_________________________________________________
[B01] Controls and Menus
_________________________________________________
Controls
--------
_____________________________________________
Button Field Menu
---------------------------------------------
D-Pad Move character Move cursor
A Examine/talk Confirm
B Cancel text Cancel
Start Bring up Menu -
Select - Reposition item/move*
_____________________________________________
*In the Item menu, you can use the Select button to highlight an Item and then
press Select elsewhere to slot it in a different order in your bag or PC. In
battle, you can rearrange a Pokemon's four moves in a similar manner.
A+B+Start+Select performs a Soft Reset--it returns you to the opening scenes,
as if you had powered your Game Boy off and on again.
Oh, and 'Field' is a universal term for 'anywhere not in battle' i.e. where you
control your hero and walk around.
Main Menu
---------
This is where you end up once you've fired up your cartridge and skipped the
introductory scenes. You have three choices:
- Continue: Displays your name, how many Badges you have earned out of eight,
how many different species of Pokemon you have caught and the total amount of
time you have played your current game for. Then it will resume from where
you last saved your game.
- New Game: Where to go to begin a new adventure. See section I. 'The
Walkthrough' for more on this.
- Option: Displays a few different options for customing the appearance of
your game. You can access 'Option' (shouldn't that be 'Options'?) in-game as
well; see below for a more in-depth look at it.
Menu
----
Once you end up in the game properly and are on the field, you can access the
Menu by pressing Start. It has seven different selections:
1 - Pokedex:
Only available once you have the Pokedex, you can access 'Pokedex' for some
information on the Pokemon you have encountered. A list of all encountered
Pokemon will appear--ordred by National Dex number--along with the total number
of 'Seen' Pokemon (seen, but not caught) and 'Own' Pokemon (had in your
possession at some point). A Pokemon with a ball by its name is one that you
own or have owned. You can scroll one entry at a time by pressing up or down,
or seven at a time by pressing left or right.
Once you select a Pokemon, you are given four options:
- Data: If you own the selected Pokemon, it displays the Pokemon's sprite,
number, name, species, height (feet and inches), weight (pounds) and two
pages of information you can scroll through. If you don't own the selected
Pokemon, it displays the Pokemon's sprite, number, name and species.
- Cry: Plays the sound file of the Pokemon's signature noise or 'cry'.
- Area: Displays the Kanto region and highlights areas that Pokemon can be
found in the wild (does not apply to Fated Encounters--one time only special
Pokemon).
- Quit: Takes you back to the Menu.
2 - Pokemon:
Only available once you have at least one Pokemon, 'Pokemon' gives greater
information on the six or fewer Pokemon on your current team. An overview of
your current team members will be displayed, showing an icon for each, its
nickname (if one applies), level, and current and Max HP, represented
numerically and by a HP bar. Once you select a Pokemon, you have a few options:
- [Move]: The name of any moves your Pokemon knows which can be used on the
field will show and by selecting one, your Pokemon will perform that move's
out-of-battle effects, such as Teleporting or Surfing.
- Stats: When you select this, you'll be presented with the first of two data
pages about your Pokemon. This one displays its sprite, Pokedex No.,
nickname, level, current and max HP (numerically and graphically), current
status effects such as BRN or PSN (OK if it is healthy, FNT if it has
fainted), stats (Attack, Defense, Speed and Special values), types, ID No.
(same as its first trainer's) and the name of its Original Trainer ('OT').
The second page displays a few of the things from above, plus its real name,
total Exp Points, required Exp Points to get to the next level and moveset
(with each move displaying its current and Max PP).
For more information about this, check out section B02; 'Pokemon: An
Overview'.
- Switch: Use this to switch the order of your Pokemon. The Pokemon at the top
of the list comes out first for battle. The rest of the order doesn't matter.
- Cancel: I have no idea what this does.
3 - Item:
Displays a list of your current items. Items are stackable, meaning that you
can have one Potion or 99 Potions but both only occupy one slot. Your bag only
has space for 20 item slots, but you can deposit some in a PC (more on that
later). Selecting an item gives you the option of 'Use' or 'Toss'--or you can
back out of your decision with B. They are both self-explanatory, although you
can use 'Toss' to throw away only a specificed number of a stackable item. Key
Items--items central to your adventure--cannot be thrown away and will
automatically be used when you select them e.g. the Bicycle.
4 - [Name]:
The name you chose at the beginning. It displays a sprite, your name, current
money (max $999999), total time played and an image of all the badges you have
(or have not) earned.
5 - Option:
Displays the following options for tweaking your game's appearance:
- Text Speed: Fast Medium Slow
Fast isn't particularly fast, but the other speeds are painful.
- Battle Animation: On Off
Whether you see the animation of a Pokemon's move execution. On is good for
the novelty, but Off is the quicker and more efficient option.
- Style: Shift Set
Shift means that once you have knocked out a Pokemon, the game will tell you
which Pokemon, if any, your opponent is going to send out next, and will give
you the choice of switching to another member of your team. Set means that
the opponent brings out the next Pokemon without giving you any prior warning
or opportunity to switch out. Shift is easily the superior option, but if you
plan on battling competitively or against other (real life) people, the
option is adamantly set to, well, Set. You might want to get in practice now.
- Sound: Mono Earphone1 Earphone2 Earphone3 (Yellow only)
Personal preference here, really. The default is Mono and that is what I
stick with.
- Print: Lightest Lighter Normal Darker Darkest (Yellow only)
The tone setting you would like to use for your non-existant Game Boy
Printer.
The best options are probably Fast-Off-Shift(-Mono-Normal).
6 - Save:
No sub-menus here, thankfully. It'll ask if you're sure--just press 'Yes' to
save your current adventure. Pokemon is cheap in that every main series game
only allows you to have one save file.
7 - Exit:
The button used the least--if ever--since B does the same thing and doesn't
require scrolling. It just closes the menu, but it would be better if it let
you quit to the main menu.
_________________________________________________
[B02] Pokemon: An Overview
_________________________________________________
Pokemon are what you will be centering your game around, so you'd better know
what you're dealing with. Pokemon are essentially the game's equivalent of
'animals', although I use that term loosely since Pokemon have powers that no
animal has. You catch wild Pokemon or are given them and then you can train
them up to fight other trainers' Pokemon. Yeah, that's the game's premise.
As a trainer, you'll have access to a team of up to six Pokemon at any one time
and many more which you can switch around with your main party. Each Pokemon
has four moves and a lot more data besides. Using the 'Pokemon' command of the
menu, you can access a trove of data about your Pokemon.
Level
-----
Your Pokemon's level is a number (legitimately between 2 and 100 inclusive, but
can be glitched between 0 and 255 inclusive) that roughly represents how strong
it is in comparison to other Pokemon. The higher, the better. Battle other
Pokemon and win to gain Experience (Exp.) to increase your Pokemon's Level.
Stats
-----
Each Pokemon has five stats, which vary based on the species of Pokemon in
question, its level, its defeated foes and a slight random factor. Again, the
higher the value, the better. The five stats are:
HP - The Pokemon's health. Reduce this to zero to faint it.
Attack (Atk) - How much damage can be dealt with physical* type attacks.
Defense (Def) - Reduces damage recieved from physical* type attacks.
Special (Spc) - Deals AND reduces damage to special^ type attacks.
Speed (Spe) - The Pokemon with the highest Speed acts first in a round.
In addition, each of your Pokemon's moves has PP, which determines how many
times that move can be used. Once it gets to zero, that move cannot be used
until you restore its PP. If all a Pokemon's moves have zero PP, then it uses
the move Struggle which also damages the user. Because the AI is a cheating
b****** (buffoon), AI foes have infinite PP.
*Physical types: Bug, Fighting, Flying, Ghost, Ground, Normal, Poison, Rock.
^Special types: Dragon, Electric, Fire, Grass, Ice, Psychic, Water.
ID No. and OT
-------------
When you begin the game, it assigns you an ID No. and an Originial Trainer
(OT). Your ID No. is a random value between 0 and 65535, your OT is the name
you pick at the start, and all Pokemon you get in-game that aren't gotten via
an in-game trade will share the ID No. and OT with you. Any Pokemon that do not
share your ID No. and OT will disobey you unless you have obtained some Badges,
which will be explained later on.
Types
-----
Each and every Pokemon has one or two out of fifteen possible types. Every
Pokemon of the same species (that is, every Pokemon of the same name) has the
same type--so a Charmander is always a Fire type, for instance. Pokemon attacks
also have types; the amount of damage a Pokemon takes from a move is modified
dependant on the Pokemon's type(s) and the move's type. For example, a Fire
type Pokemon takes double damage from a Water type move. The full chart is
outlined below:
_________________________________________________

Key:

_________|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___|___
There are five major differences to this type chart--four of which have been
highlighted with an asterisk above--when compared with later generations of
Pokemon:
1. Bug is 2x effective against Poison, unlike 0.5x in later generations (making
it 4x effective against Grass/Poison types!).
2. Regardless of anything you have heard to the contrary, Ghost is completely
useless against Psychics, dealing 0x damage, unlike 2x in later generations.
This is most probably a glitch.
3. Ice deals neutral damage to Fire, unlike 0.5x in later generations (so
Charizard takes 2x damage from Ice attacks).
4. Poison is 2x effective against Bug, whereas it is neutral in later
generations (so Paras and Parasect take 4x damage from it).
5. The Steel and Dark types do not exist in RBY. Hence, moves like Bite are not
Dark type and Magnemite/Magneton are not Steel types yet.
N.B: There are a lot of rumours flying around the internet that Bug is neutral
against Ghost in Generation I. I tested this by using Twineedle (which critical
hit) from a L20 Beedrill against a L20 Gastly, and predicting my results with
the Damage Formula. Result? According to the Damage Formula, if Bug was neutral
against Ghost, Twineedle (because it critical hit) would have definitely killed
Gastly in one hit, even if Gastly had max stats. But it didn't--only about
three quarters of its HP was depleted.
Anyway, you absolutely MUST get at least a basic idea of type advantage when
you play Pokemon games, or you'll be about in useful in combat as a L1
Magikarp.
Attacking a Pokemon that has two Types
--------------------------------------
If you use, say, a Rock attack against a Fire/Flying type, notice from above
that Rock is super effective against Fire and Flying types. So yes, the 2x
bonus is applied twice, resulting in 4x damage! Sweet...
However, consider a Grass type attacking a Bug/Flying type. Notice that Grass
is not very effective against both of those types, resulting in 0.5 * 0.5 =
0.25x total damage. So yes, you can potentially quarter your damage output if
you don't know your type chart!
Now say a Ground Pokemon was to attack the same Fire/Flying type. Ground is 2x
effective against Fire, but 0x effective against Flying. The type modifiers
stack, resulting in 2 * 0 = 0, so you deal no damage.
Finally, consider the case where, say, a Grass type attacks a Water/Poison
type. Grass is super effective against Water, but not very effective against
Poison, resulting in 2 * 0.5 = 1, so there is no overall change to the damage.
...But the game will tell you otherwise. Because of the game's programming, if
you attack a Pokemon in this manner (one type super effective, the other not
very effective), the game will tell you that it's either not very effective or
super effective. Which message it displays is fixed depending on the types
involved, because the game draws from an ordered, programmed-in list of type
advantages/disadvantages. But none of that matters; all that matters is the
output--neutral damage--is the same.
If you really want to find out which message takes priority, have a look at
section M14; 'Type Effectiveness Message Display'.
STAB
----
When a Pokemon uses a move which is the same type as itself, that move will
deal 1.5x the damage it normally would, e.g. Charmander (Fire type Pokemon)
using Ember (Fire type move). This is known as Same Type Attack Bonus, commonly
known as 'STAB', and Pokemon with two types have access to two STABs. Bonus!
Knowing your Types
------------------
For your adventure--and especially in competitive play--you should use Pokemon
and moves of the following important and powerful types:
Psychic, Normal, Ice, Electric and Ground.
The following types are not entirely necessary but still good types to use on a
team:
Water, Rock, Grass, Flying, Fire and Fighting.
The following types suffer from a lack of powerful moves and have poor type
advantages, and should thus be avoided unless that Pokemon has redeeming
features:
Poison, Bug, Ghost and Dragon.
_________________________________________________
[B04] Moves
_________________________________________________
All Pokemon have at least one move when you obtain them and can learn more
moves, up to a maximum of four; learning another move after it already has four
will require an already known move to be forgotten. You can find detailed
information on all 165 moves in section L04; 'Movedex +'.
PP
--
All moves have a certain amount of PP--Tackle, for instance, has 35PP. PP
simply denotes how many times a move may be used--once a move has 0PP, it can
no longer be used and you must find a way to restore PP (use an item such as an
Ether or visit a Poke Center) to use that move again. In general, a stronger
move will have less PP.
Move Categories
---------------
Each move type falls into either the Physical or Special move category.
- Physical attack damage is based on the attacker's Attack (Atk) stat and the
defender's Defense (Def) stat.
- Special attack damage is based on the attacker's Special (Spc) stat and the
defender's Special (Spc) stat. Yes, the Special stat is your Special Attack
and Special Defense rolled into one, making it twice as useful as the other
stats.
A move's category depends on its type:
- Physical: Bug, Fighting, Flying, Ghost, Ground, Normal, Poison, Rock.
- Special: Dragon, Electric, Fire, Grass, Ice, Psychic, Water.
Learning Moves
--------------
Each Pokemon can learn moves in the following ways. Be sure to check out
section L05; 'Pokedex +' which covers the individual instances of move learning
for every species of Pokemon.
- Level Up
Pokemon have a level up movepool, whereby they learn set moves whenever they
reach a certain level.
- TMs/HMs
Throughout the game, you will chance across items known as TMs or HMs. There
are 55 different types of TMs and HMs in Red, Blue and Yellow, and each one
contains a different move. You can teach the contained move to any compatible
Pokemon--that is, some moves can't be learned by certain Pokemon. For instance,
TM22 (SolarBeam) cannot be taught to, say, Blastoise.
Of the 55 machines, 50 are Technical Machines (TMs) and 5 are Hidden Machines
(HMs). TMs are strictly one-use only, and using one typically means it's gone
forever unless you can buy another one--but most TMs cannot be bought,
appearing once per game. HMs, on the other hand, can be used indefinitely, but
they cannot be deleted once taught (short of trading to GSC and deleting it
there), so think carefully before giving your Pokemon an HM.
Some TMs and all HMs have out-of-battle effects. Some of the HMs are compulsory
to beat the game, such as Cut and Surf, while others like Fly are strictly
speaking unnecessary but very helpful. For HMs which are compulsory to complete
the game, but aren't very useful attacking moves, I'd recommend teaching them
to a 'HM slave'--a weak Pokemon designated just to hold HMs--so that you don't
accidentally teach it to something you'd like to have a better move.
On a side note, a Pokemon can use moves outside of battle like HMs even if the
move has no PP or the Pokemon has fainted.
- Stadium
Two Pokemon--Pikachu and Psyduck--learn signature moves by fulfilling certain
conditions in Pokemon Stadium.
- GSC Tradeback
If you trade your Pokemon over to either Gold, Silver or Crystal, they can be
taught moves in those games via new level up movepools, breeding, NYPC events,
new TMs and HMs or being tutored. The moves that can be traded back to RBY will
be detailed in the Pokedex section I have provided for you.
Status Effects
--------------
Some moves can induce status effects on the foe. The status effects are
explored in detail in section M02; 'Status Effects', but the basic information
about them is as follows:
- Burn (BRN)
A Pokemon under burn status loses 1/16th of its max HP after each of its turns
and its Attack stat is halved. Fire type Pokemon are immune to burn.
- Confusion
A confused Pokemon will attack itself instead of the opponent 50% of the time
with a typeless, 40 power move. It lasts between 1 to 4 turns inclusive.
- Flinch
A Pokemon can only be affected by a flinch if moves second in a round. A
flinched Pokemon cannot perform its selected move on its turn.
- Freeze (FRZ)
A frozen Pokemon becomes immobile and cannot use any moves.
- Leech Seed
A Pokemon under Leech Seed status loses 1/16th of its Max HP at the end of
every turn and this HP is absorbed by the Leech Seed user.
- Paralysis (PAR)
When under Paralysis status, a Pokemon's Speed stat is quartered and it will
have a 25% chance to become fully paralysed on each of its subsequent turns,
which renders it immobile for that turn.
- Poison (PSN)
A poisoned Pokemon loses 1/16th of its Max HP at the end of each of its turns.
- Sleep (SLP)
Under Sleep status, a Pokemon will be unable to attack for between 1 and 7
turns. Then it will wake up and be unable to attack on the turn it does so.
- Toxic Poison (PSN)
The 'badly' poisoned Pokemon will lose 1/16th of its Max HP at the end of the
first turn it is badly poisoned, then 2/16ths on its next turn, then 3/16ths,
4/16ths... etc. It will revert to normal poison status if the affected Pokemon
switches out and back in or the battle finishes.
Accuracy
--------
Except for Bide, Swift, Transform and self-targeting moves, all moves are
subject to miss. The exact chances of a miss are dependant on the move in
question--accuracy of a move can be found in my Movedex--and the accuracy and
evade modifiers in play (see M05; 'Accuracy and Evade' for more details).
_________________________________________________
[B05] Evolution
_________________________________________________
When Pokemon satisfy certain conditions, they evolve into a new species of
Pokemon, with better stats and, ocassionally, a new type and set of moves.
Evolution chains are fixed, so a Bulbasaur can only ever evolve into an
Ivysaur, for example. Check out section L05; 'Pokedex +' for the exact
conditions each Pokemon needs to evolve (if it can evolve at all).
A Pokemon's movepool (list of all the moves it can learn) will probably change
when it evolves, and many level up evolution Pokemon will learn moves at a much
later level then if they had stayed unevolved. To work out whether evolving is
beneficial, it will be helpful to check the Pokedex section I just mentioned.
All Pokemon that can evolve will evolve by one of the following methods:
Level Up
--------
When it reaches a certain level, the Pokemon will attempt to evolve on that
level. This can be cancelled by pressing B and the Pokemon will then attempt to
evolve on every subsequent level. If a Pokemon reaches L100, it will no longer
be allowed to evolve via this method.
Stone
-----
Some Pokemon evolve when an evolution stone is used on them. Simply have the
item in your inventory and 'Use' it on the compatible Pokemon. Evolution cannot
be cancelled in this way by pressing B during evolution. All stones except the
Moon Stone can be purchased at the Celadon Dept. Store (4F) for $2100.
Trade
-----
Four Pokemon--Kadabra, Machoke, Graveler and Haunter--only evolve when traded
to another game cartridge. This type of evolution cannot be cancelled by
pressing B.
_________________________________________________
[B06] Items
_________________________________________________
Items are just objects you use to help in your adventure. Some can be used to
heal your Pokemon in battle or escape from dungeons, for instance. You can
switch the position of two items within your Bag or PC by pressing Select on
the first item and then Select on the second. A full list of items, their cost
and effects can be found in section L03; 'Itemdex +'.
Bag
---
You will come across many items in the Pokemon world and can store up to 20
item slots in your bag. Items are stackable, meaning that one Potion takes up
as much space as 99 Potions in your bag, since one type of item only takes up
one slot, no matter how many there are.
The PC
------
The PC (see section B11; 'The PC' for more information) can store up to 50 item
slots. There are more than 70 different types of item in the game, so you are
going to have to decide which ones you'll have to do without.

[B07] Pokemon Battling: An Overview
_________________________________________________
Types of Battle
---------------
There are two types of battle in this game: Wild or Trainer:
- Wild
You will only face one Pokemon that selects one of its moves at random. Usually
low-level and easy to take out. You can attempt to capture wild Pokemon to add
them to your collection. You can also escape from wild Pokemon battles.
- Trainer
You will face a team of Pokemon with *slightly* (only very slightly) smarter
AI. These Pokemon cannot be caught and will offer 1.5x the Exp. of a wild
Pokemon of exactly the same species and level. Trainers will give out money
relative to their trainer class (Youngster, Bug Catcher, etc.) and highest
Pokemon's level. You cannot escape from a trainer battle once you have started
one.
Structure
---------
Pokemon battles consist of rounds in which the ultimate aim is to faint the
opposing set of Pokemon by reducing their HP to zero. Each round consists of
two turns--yours and your opponent's. Each combatant gives their Pokemon
commands at the beginning of a round and the fastest Pokemon will get its turn
before the slower one. The rounds continue in this manner until one combatant
is the victor.
Actions
-------
Each round in battle presents you with four options:
- Fight
Select one of your Pokemon's 1-4 moves. It might or might not be successful,
depending on your opponent's actions. The faster Pokemon goes first.
- PKMN
You are taken to the 'Pokemon' menu, where you can check your Pokemons' stats
or switch out your currently selected Pokemon. Switching will always go first,
regardless of Speed (except for AI opponents, who switch according to Speed).
- Item
Use an item from your bag. Always acts first, regardless of Speed (except for
AI opponents, who use items according to Speed).
- Run
Impossible in trainer battles, but lets you escape from wild battles. Might not
be successful depeding on your Speed in relation to your opponent's. See
section M13; 'Running Success Formula' for the exact chances of running away,
if you don't mind a bit of maths.
Obedience
---------
If your Pokemon do not have the same ID No. as you, they will disobey you (act
randomly, not act at all) if you don't have the right badges. Pokemon with
different ID Nos to you are obtained via trading.
The badges are obtained by defeating Gym Leaders. You will need the following
badges to command the corresponding levels of Pokemon:
No Badges: Up to and including L10.
CascadeBadge: Up to and inclduing L30.
RainbowBadge: Up to and inclduing L50.
MarshBadge: Up to and inclduing L70.
EarthBadge: Up to and inclduing L100. (Glitched Pokemon of higher levels will
still disobey.)
See section M15; 'Obedience Mechanics' for more information on obedience...
mechanics.

[B08] Catching Pokemon
_________________________________________________
Provided you have a Poke Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball or Master Ball (or Safari
Ball in the Safari Zone), you can attempt to catch any wild Pokemon you chance
across to add it to your team. The Master Ball offers a 100% chance to catch,
but you only get one, whereas the other Balls offer chances depending on your
foe's species, Max HP, current HP and the type of ball you are using.
Applying status effects to the Pokemon you are attempting to catch will improve
your chances, with sleep and freeze offering the biggest boosts. If you are not
averse to a lot of maths, try section M08; 'Catch Rate Formula' for the full
rundown. Generally, Poke Balls are the least effective, followed by Great Balls
and then Ultra Balls. Safari Balls are only used in the Safari Zone and no
other Ball can be used in there. The main things you should know about catching
Pokemon are:
HP Limit
--------
Due to the mechanics of this game, the Poke Ball and Ultra Ball work best when
the Pokemon you are attempting to catch has less than a third of its Max HP
remaining--any lower is unnecessary. For Great Balls, it's under a half--again,
any lower is unnecessary. Slap status on the foe (sleep or freeze in particular
are good) and then throw Balls for the best chance.
Safari Zone
-----------
Catching Pokemon in the Safari Zone is difficult and time-consuming.
Nevertheless, some unique Pokemon live there that cannot be caught elsewhere
except through glitch abuse. Instead of fighting, you are given rocks and bait
to throw. See section M09; 'Safari Zone Catching Mechanics' for the full
rundown, but in the end the best thing to do is to just lob Balls--you'll catch
them eventually. Safari Zone Pokemon have a horrible tendancy to run at any
opportunity, so throwing anything but Balls just increases that chance they
have of running.
Methods of Encounter
--------------------
There are four main ways of encountering wild Pokemon:
- Walking in Caves or Tall Grass
Wild Pokemon will randomly appear when you walk in these areas.
- Surfing
Much like walking, but on water. Most bodies of water do not contain Pokemon
that can be encountered via Surf, but the bigger Routes do.
- Fishing
Once you get either the Old Rod, Good Rod or Super Rod, you can use it while
facing water to fish. Each Rod produces different Pokemon.
- Fated Encounter
These special Pokemon appear as sprites on the field and are once-chance-only.
Save before 'talking' to them and you'll engage with a Fated Encounter Pokemon.
If you faint it, it's gone forever, so be sure to catch it to add it to your
collection.
_________________________________________________
[B09] The Pokedex
_________________________________________________
Prof. Oak will hand you this nifty device shortly into your adventure. It
records data on Pokemon you've 'Seen' and Pokemon you 'Own'. Owned Pokemon just
have to be owned at some point in your journey--once a Pokemon is considered
owned, it will not be unowned again. If you have seen a wild or trainer-owned
Pokemon but have never owned one yourself, that Pokemon is considered 'Seen'
and its full data will not be displayed. Section B01 above has more details
about the 'Dex. It's essentially an in-game checklist.
_________________________________________________
[B10] Useful Buildings
_________________________________________________
Running around in grass and caves is all well and good, but eventually you'll
want to pop into the following three important buildings:
Gyms
----
There are eight Gyms in the Pokemon world and you must venture into each one
and defeat its leader--a toughened trainer--to take its Badge. This is to
complete the game--see section B12 below.
Poke Centers
------------
These wonderful buildings heal your Pokemon to full HP, cure it of status
effects, restores each of its moves to full PP. All this is a free service and
can be used infinitely. They are situated in all major towns and cities, as
well as some out-of-the-way areas. They also contain PCs which are explained in
more detail in the next section.
Poke Marts
----------
Shops, essentially. You'll want to head into these to stock up on healing items
and such.
_________________________________________________
[B11] The PC
_________________________________________________
PCs are available to use for free at all Poke Centers. They all have five
options:
Someone's PC/Bill's PC
------------------------
This option starts as 'Someone's PC' and becomes 'Bill's PC' once you meet
Bill. Each Pokemon you catch that isn't in your party will end up in one of 12
boxes, each of which can house 20 Pokemon for a total of 240 Pokemon. If your
party consists of six members, newly caught Pokemon will automatically be sent
to your current selected Box.
If your Box is full and your party has six members, you will not be able to
catch any more Pokemon until you manually change Box.
Someone's PC/Bill's PC has five sub-options:
- Withdraw PKMN
So long as you have five or fewer Pokemon in your current party, you can take
out a Pokemon from the current Box to place into your party.
- Deposit PKMN
Takes a Pokemon from your party and puts it in the current Box, as long as
fewer than 20 Pokemon are in that Box.
- Release PKMN
Allows you to get rid of Pokemon from the current Box. They can never be
retrieved, so choose wisely.
- Change Box
Changes the current Box to another one.
- See Ya!
Goes back to the previous menu.
[Your Name]'s PC
----------------
This manages item storage in a similar manner to Pokemon storage. Items are
stackable, meaning that one Potion takes up as much space as 99 Potions in your
bag, since one type of item only takes up one slot, no matter how many there
are. The PC has 50 item slots.
- Withdraw Item
Takes an item from the PC, as long as you have fewer than 20 items in your Bag.
- Deposit Item
Takes an item from your Bag and puts it in the PC, as long as there are fewer
then 50 items in the PC.
- Toss Item
Allows you to select items to get rid of that are stored in your PC. Only
applies to non-Key Items.
- Log Off
Goes back to the previous menu.
Prof. Oak's PC
--------------
Selecting this option just lets Prof. Oak rate how well your Pokedex is coming
along. Not very helpful.
PKMN League
-----------
Displays teams of Pokemon (and their level/type(s)) with which you have beaten
the Elite Four. Can only hold 50 records--the oldest data will be wiped if you
defeat the Elite Four more than 50 times.
Log Off
-------
Hm. Cancels your PC interaction. Fun.
_________________________________________________
[B12] The Goal of Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow
_________________________________________________
There are two main goals of the RPG section of these games.
1. Defeat the Gym Leaders and the Elite Four
--------------------------------------------
There are eight Gym leaders in this game and my walkthrough describes how to
defeat each one. When you do, you will get the following badges:
- BoulderBadge: Increases Attack for all your Pokemon. Allows use of the HM
Flash outside of battle.
- CascadeBadge: All Pokemon up to and including L30 will obey your commands.
Allows use of the HM Cut outside of battle.
- ThunderBadge: Increases Speed for all your Pokemon. Allows use of the HM Fly
outside of battle.
- RainbowBadge: All Pokemon up to and including L50 will obey your commands.
Allows use of the HM Strength outside of battle.
- SoulBadge: Increases Defense for all your Pokemon. Allows use of the HM
Surf outside of battle.
- MarshBadge: All Pokemon up to and including L70 will obey your commands.
- VolcanoBadge: Increases Special for all your Pokemon.
- EarthBadge: All Pokemon up to and including L100 will obey your commands.
Once you have all eight badges, go and challenge the Elite Four, a bunch of
trainers whose levels range from 53 to 65, each with six Pokemon. Yowza. Then,
you're *kinda* done.
2. Fill the Pokedex
-------------------
Of course, the other goal is to fill the Pokedex and my section on finding them
all--L08; 'Pokemon Locations Checklist'--will help immensely here. Once you've
filled it (Mew is not required), talk to the Game Designer in Celadon City--in
the building where Eevee is--for the Diploma which basically says you've
completed the game. Well done you!
_________________________________________________
[B13] Universal Linking
_________________________________________________
Universal Linking is the term given to connecting to another Game Boy system
using the Game Link Cable. Doing this lets you battle or trade with other
owners of Pokemon Red, Blue Yellow.
To start, both players need go and speak to the lady next to the PC in any Poke
Center to start a Link. They should do this at the same time. Do not link two
different language versions of the game, or save data will get screwed up.
You will then get two or three options after you have saved:
Trade Center
------------
Here is where you swap Pokemon with people. Go to the table in the center of
the room and press A to begin the sequence. You can check the 'Stats' of your
selected Pokemon or choose to 'Trade' them away. When you have both selected
'Trade', you will both be asked to confirm your trade choices and see what the
other player has offered up. If one of you cancels at this stage, the trade is
cancelled and you must both choose again (or choose to cancel). Once you're
done, press Start and 'Reset' to return to the title screen.
Colosseum
---------
This is where you go to battle. A few different rules apply here:
- You cannot use items.
- Exp. is not gained.
- 'Run' forfeits the match.
- You are not given the option to switch out when the opponent's Pokemon
faints.
- Some moves will change their effects slightly. See the Movedex for more info.
Colosseum 2 (Yellow only)
-------------------------
Another battle arena, but with special rules if both players are playing
Pokemon Yellow. You can play the following special rulesets:
- Poke Cup: Three different species of Pokemon, all between L50-55 inclusive.
Combined level of the three Pokemon must not exceed 155. Mew is
not elligible to participate.
- Pika Cup: Three different species of Pokemon, all between L15-20 inclusive.
Combined level of the three Pokemon must not exceed 50. Mew is
not elligible to participate.
- Petit Cup: Three different species of Pokemon, all between L25-30 inclusive.
Combined level of the three Pokemon must not exceed 80. Mew is
not elligible to participate. Pokemon taller than 6'7" or heavier
than 44 lbs are not elligible to particpate.

III. Lists, Charts and Other Data

[L01] Red, Blue and Yellow Version Differences
_________________________________________________
Red and Blue versions are essentially the same game, except the colour filter
is set to that of the respective version's colour, if you're playing on a
colour Game Boy system. The main difference, of course, is that both versions
have some unique Pokemon, just so you'll hand Nintendo more of your money to
get the other version and truly 'catch 'em all'.
Yellow version has some unique features over Red and Blue. Namely, your starter
Pokemon is no longer one of Bulbasaur, Charmander or Squirtle. Instead, you are
forced to play a Pikachu so stubborn it refuses to evolve. Thus, the game
mimics the anime (which in turn mimicked the original Japanese games, so its a
game based on an anime based on a game). You can eventually obtain all three
starters as well.
Other minor tweaks to gameplay include some changed movepools--i.e. some
Pokemon gain moves at different levels when compared to Red and Blue--and new
'pro' (Gym Leaders, Giovanni, Elite Four) Trainer Pokemon, usually at higher
Levels. The sprites were changed (whether they did a good job is up for
debate), the in-game trades were changed and your Rival has an entirely
different team, mostly because he starts with an Eevee.
Finally, some wild Pokemon have moved locations, the Surfing Pikachu mini-game
was added to the Route just below Fuchsia and, of course, Game Freak decided to
leave out a handful of Pokemon, this time forcing you to trade with both Red
and Blue versions if you wish to truly own all 151 Pokemon.
The following is a list of Pokemon which *DO NOT* appear in the game version
you are playing. This is excluding the four Trade evolution Pokemon--Alakazam,
Machamp, Golem and Gengar--which cannot be obtained in any version without
trading. Machamp, however, can be obtained via an in-game trade in Yellow
version. It also doesn't include choices such as between Bulbasaur, Charmander
and Squirtle, of which you can get all three in Yellow. The lists also include
which versions the Pokemon otherwise appear in.
Basically, the following lists detail the *wild* Pokemon you will never run
into in those versions. Also, it's impossible to get Raichu in Yellow without
trading, so I put him in that list too.

The 'Best' Version
------------------
I think most people would agree that the 'definitive' version of this game is
Pokemon Yellow, since it comes with quite a few extra features and was released
later. The only real downside to it is that you need to trade with both Red and
Blue versions to get 150 Pokemon legitimately (excluding Mew here, who
currently can only be obtained via trading with someone else or cheating for
it).
If, however, you're deciding between Red and Blue, you should first know that
the only difference is the rarity and appearance of certain Pokemon--you will
need to trade with the opposing version to get them all. Having said that, we
can determine which of these two versions is better by comparing the Pokemon
contained within each one. Game Freak have made this quite easy to do--each
Pokemon missing from one version has a 'counterpart' missing from the opposing
version. For example, Blue players get Vulpix while Red players get Growlithe--
these guys appear in the same areas with the same frequency and are both Fire
types.
So here is the list of all the Pokemon and their counterparts, along with a
symbol displaying who is better (in my humble opinion):
Key
---
> Is better than
= Is more-or-less equal to
< Is worse than
_______________________________________________________________
Red Blue
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ekans, Arbok < Sandshrew, Sandslash
Oddish, Gloom, Vileplume < Bellsprout, Weepinbell, Victreebel
Mankey, Primeape < Meowth, Persian
Growlithe, Arcanine = Vulpix, Ninetales
Scyther < Pinsir
Electabuzz > Magmar
_______________________________________________________________
So I would say that Blue is better than Red. But then Red has Charizard on the
box, so...
Also, bear in mind that you can use the Mew Glitch to get any of the opposing
version's Pokemon, so this is a moot point really.

[L03] Itemdex +
_________________________________________________
Every item in the game is listed here. A buy price of '-' indicates that
nowhere sells the item. A sell price of '-' indicates that the item cannot be
sold, as opposed to '$0', which indicates that the item can be sold for
nothing.
The 'Marts' refers to where you can *buy* the item indefinitely. If you wish to
know the locations of one-time-only items lying around on the field, my
walkthrough details them all--simply use the 'Find' feature by pressing Ctrl +
F and search for the item's name, capitalising it and enclosing it inside the
inequality signs, '<' and '>' (without quotation marks). For instance, if I
wish to search for the non-existant item 'Flower', I would type into the Find
bar: <FLOWER>

exactly how they work. Each vitamin that boosts stat experience adds 2560 stat

________
Machines
________
Machines, commonly known as TMs and HMs--Technical Machines and Hidden Machines
respectively--teach your Pokemon new moves, provided they are compatible with
the Machine you are attempting to use on them. TMs are one-use-only, whereas
HMs can be used indefinitely. Also, HMs cannot be bought or sold, cannot be
deleted once learned (unless you trade the Pokemon to GSC) and have useful out-
of-battle effects which allow you to traverse the game world more easily.
The brackets next to each Machine denote the move it teaches to compatible
Pokemon. See section L06; 'TM/HM Compatibilty List' for a list of Pokemon
compatible with every TM and HM and section L04; 'Movedex +' for the effects of
the moves contained within. For each machine's location in my walkthrough, do a
Ctrl + F search for the TM inside angled brackets '<' and '>' without quotation
marks--but don't include the move's name that's in parenthesis. For example,
searching for the 'TM00 (Example)' I would put into the search bar
<TM00>
and then hit return to be taken to it's location in the walthrough.

Dummy Items
___________
These are items that appear in the game's coding, but are not obtained through
any method other than using an external device (GameShark) to cheat for them.
- Pokedex
Notes: Accesses the Pokedex. This item can be used in battles, but might
screw up the graphics.
- Coin
Buy/Sell: $10/$5
Notes: Coins can be legitimately purchased at a rate of $1000 for 50 in
Celadon City. However, they are not considered to be items, since
they are encompassed in the Coin Case key item.
Badges
------
You earn the Badges in-game, but not as items. However, they actually have an
item slot designated to them which never gets filled--instead, they simply come
up as icons in the '[Player Name]' menu choice. Only the first two item-slot
'Badges' have effects.
- BoulderBadge
Effect: When selected in battle, it acts as if the player had selected the
'Throw Rock' command as in the Safari Zone.
- CascadeBadge
Effect: When selected in battle, it acts as if the player had selected the
'Bait' command as in the Safari Zone.

[L04] Movedex +
_________________________________________________
- Move: The name of the move. Duh.
- Type: The type of the move determines its effectiveness against different
types of Pokemon. See section B03; 'Types' for full details of how
types work in this game.
- PP: The amount of times you can use the move. Once it hits zero, the
move can no longer be used and you must restore the move's PP
either with an item or by using the Poke Center.
- Max PP: The maximum PP the move can have. To increase up to Max PP, use the
(Max) item 'PP Up'. Each use of PP Up will increase PP value by 20% of
the original PP value, up to the maximum displayed here. For
example, a move with a PP of 10: 20% of 10 is 2, so each use of PP
Up will increase the Max PP by 2. You can use a PP Up on a selected
move up to three times. So our original 10PP will hit 12, 14 and
finally 16PP. The absolute limit for a move's PP seems to be 61 in
this game, only achievable on moves with an original PP of 40.
- Power: The base power of the move. The higher this value, the stronger the
(Pwr) attack is and the more damage it will do. For exact calculations,
see section M06; 'The Damage Formula'. If the value in this column
is simply '-', then the move either does not cause any damage or
performs a set-amount-of-damage attack that is not affected by type
effectiveness. Details can be found in the 'Effects:' area of the
move in question.
- Accuracy: The chance of successfully landing the move, up to 99.6%. The
mechanics in RBY render all accuracy values slightly lower than
they are in future generations, probably due to a programming
oversight, so all accuracies are ~0.4% lower than their future
'true' accuracies. Some moves have 'true' 99.6% accuracy and are
marked with ' -%' in the Accuracy column. They do not perform an
accuracy check and thus can never miss. These moves include all
Self-targeting moves, Bide, Swift and Transform. Except for Bide in
Stadium, these moves even hit Dig- and Fly-users. Also, the moves
Metronome and Mirror Move--two moves which conjure up other moves--
do not miss, but the moves that they conjure have the same accuracy
as they would usually.
- Priority: If two battling Pokemon use a move in the same turn, the move that
(Pri) has a higher priority will always go first, regardless of Speed. If
the two moves have equal priority, the faster Pokemon will act
first. If the two Pokemon have equal Speed then the first to act is
randomly decided. Most moves have a priority value of zero, but
some don't. The values are:
1 Quick Attack
0 Everything else
-1 Counter
For all intents and purposes, running takes top priority, then
switching, then item usage and finally attacking.
Interestingly, Metronome and Mirror Move--two moves that conjure
up other available moves--will give their conjured move a priority
of zero, regardless of the move's original priority value.
- Target: The target of the move--Self, Foe or All.
- Effect: Any special effects the move has, detailed in full. Anything
followed by a percentage in brackets indicates the chance that
effect has of happening. Any calculations, such as recovering 50%
health, are rounded down to the nearest whole number.
- In-Game: The move effects are all written as though you are battling over
link cable or through an online simulator. If you are instead
playing in-game against an AI-controlled opponent, the move might
work differently and will be detailed here.
- Stadium: Some moves work differently if you use them in Pokemon Stadium.
- Field: In-game, some moves can be used out of battle to help you in your
adventure. These moves have an extra 'Field:' area which details
what out-of-battle effects the move has.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Move Type PP/Max Pwr Acc Pri Target
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Absorb Grass 20/32 20 99.6% 0 Foe
User recovers 50% of the damage inflicted on the target. The minimum health
that can be restored is 1HP, but it will not restore any health to the user if
it breaks a substitute.
Stadium: This move will miss if the foe is behind a substitute.
- Acid Poison 30/48 40 99.6% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Defense by 1 stage (9.8%). The stat lowering effect cannot
occur if the foe is behind a substitute.
Stadium: The chance to lower Defense is increased to 19.9%.
- Acid Armor Poison 40/61 - -% 0 Self
Raises Defense by 2 stages.
- Agility Psychic 30/48 - -% 0 Self
Raises Speed by 2 stages.
- Amnesia Psychic 20/32 - -% 0 Self
Raises Special by 2 stages.
- Aurora Beam Ice 20/32 65 99.6% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Attack by 1 stage (9.8%). The stat lowering effect cannot occur
if the foe is behind a substitute.
Stadium: The chance to lower Attack is increased to 29.7%.
- Barrage Normal 20/32 15 84.4% 0 Foe
Hits 2-5 times in one turn. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5% chance to
hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this damage
is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will end
mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage from
the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes 1PP and
tests for accuracy.
- Barrier Psychic 30/48 - -% 0 Self
Raises Defense by 2 stages.
- Bide Normal 10/16 - -% 0 Foe
User remains motionless for 2 or 3 turns following Bide (but can switch out if
they want). In that time, any damage received is paid back double to the foe.
Unaffected by Accuracy and Evade modifiers. Bide does not really have a
'type'--that is, it will deal normal, unmodified damage against all enemy
types, inlcuding Ghosts. If the Bide-user falls victim to Sleep, Freeze, a
partial trapping move duration or a flinch, the storing damage period will
resume from where it was interrupted.
If, during the Bide period, you hit yourself in confusion, incur recoil damage
or incur crash damage due to Hi/Jump Kick missing, that will count towards the
stored up damage.
If the foe uses a damaging attack during the Bide period and then attempts to
stall using non-damaging moves or items, each non-damaging action (that does
not miss) will count as doing the same amount of damage as the previous
damaging attack (but still won't hurt the Bide user). For example, using Water
Gun on a Bide-user, then Tail Whip twice; the Bide-user will counter with
damage equal to double the taken damage of Water Gun three times.
Stadium Differences: During the Bide period, you can attack. Bide will miss
against Dig- or Fly-users. Since you can now attack during the Bide period, you
can, in the meantime, incur crash damage as a result of Hi/Jump Kick missing.
That damage will be added to the stored up damage to be done to the foe.
- Bind Normal 20/32 15 74.6% 0 Foe
See 'Partial Trapping Moves' below.
- Bite Normal 25/40 60 99.6% 0 Foe
Flinches target (9.8%). Cannot flinch Pokemon behind a substitute or Pokemon
acting first in a round.
- Blizzard Ice 5/8 120 89.5% 0 Foe
Freezes target (9.8%). Cannot freeze a target behind a substitute. In Japanese
language versions of Red, Green, Blue and Yellow, this Freeze chance is
increased to 29.7%, unless you are playing Colosseum link battle mode in Yellow
version.
- Body Slam Normal 15/24 85 99.6% 0 Foe
Paralyzes target (29.7%). Cannot paralyse a target behind a substitute.
- Bone Club Ground 20/32 65 84.4% 0 Foe
Flinches target (9.8%). Cannot flinch Pokemon behind a substitute or Pokemon
acting first in a round.
- Bonemerang Ground 10/16 50 89.5% 0 Foe
Hits twice in one turn. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this
damage is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will
end mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage
from the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes
1PP and tests for accuracy.
- Bubble Normal 30/48 20 99.6% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Speed by 1 stage (9.8%). The stat lowering effect cannot occur
if the foe is behind a substitute.
- BubbleBeam Water 20/32 65 99.6% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Speed by 1 stage (9.8%). The stat lowering effect cannot occur
if the foe is behind a substitute.
Stadium: The chance to lower Speed is increased to 29.7%.
- Clamp Water 10/16 35 74.6% 0 Foe
See 'Partial Trapping Moves' below.
- Comet Punch Normal 15/24 18 84.4% 0 Foe
Hits 2-5 times in one turn. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5% chance to
hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this damage
is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will end
mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage from
the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes 1PP and
tests for accuracy.
- Confuse Ray Ghost 10/16 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Confuses target. Cannot confuse a target behind a substitute.
- Confusion Psychic 25/40 50 99.6% 0 Foe
Confuses target (9.8%).
Stadium: Cannot confuse a target behind a substitute.
- Constrict Normal 35/56 10 99.6% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Speed by 1 stage (10%).
- Conversion Normal 30/48 - -% 0 Self
Changes user's type(s) to match target's.
- Counter Fighting 20/32 - 99.6% -1 Foe
Attacks last in a turn and pays back double the damage received on that turn.
Counter is slightly glitched in RBY--it will fail unless the move it counters
is either Normal or Fighting type. It can counter damage from any move of those
types including Seismic Toss, Bide, recoil damage and even Counter itself. On
multi-hit moves such as DoubleSlap or Wrap, only the last hit is countered.
Counter has -1 priority.
Counter can also counter back damage from previous turns, as long as the foe
does not use any damaging move in the meantime. For example: switching out,
being fully paralyzed, recharging for Hyper Beam etc. You can keep countering
back the same damage repeatedly in this way if you wish.
The user can counter damage from behind a substitute. The foe's attack will
damage the substitute, but you can counter back the damage as if it had been
done to you. Thus, you can Counter back damage equal to up to twice your
Maximum HP. Trying to Counter an OHKO move from behind a substitute will cause
Counter to fail.
Self-inflicted damage from confusion, recoil damage and crash damage from
Hi/Jump Kick missing can be countered to damage the foe, so long as they don't
damage you in the meantime.
Also, Counter doesn't really have a 'type'; that is, its damage is not affected
by type effectiveness and can even hit Ghost types despite being a Fighting-
type move. It can also critical hit, but this makes no difference damage-wise.
It will always fail if it is conjured by Metronome or if both Pokemon use
Counter in the same round.
In-Game: Counter can counter damage taken from a previous battle, so long as
you don't take damage in the meantime.
Stadium: Switching out, being fully paralysed or beginning a two-turn attack
such as Dig or Skull Bash set the amount of damage you are able to counter to
zero until you next get damaged.
- Crabhammer Water 10/16 90 84.4% 0 Foe
Has an 8x chance for a critical hit.
- Cut Normal 30/48 50 94.5% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
Field: Cuts down thin trees. Cuts out 2x2 patches of tall grass.
- Defense Curl Normal 40/61 - -% 0 Self
Raises Defense by 1 stage.
- Dig Ground 10/16 100 99.6% 0 Foe
Becomes immune to damage on the first turn (underground) and then unleashes the
attack on the second. The only moves the foe can use that appear to penetrate
this first turn invulnerability are Bide, Swift and Transform. On the first
(charge) turn, the user can do nothing but fully execute Dig on the next turn
*unless* the user is fully paralysed or hits itself in confusion. Now, this is
where this move is glitched in RBY:
If on the first (charge) turn the user is fully paralysed or hits itself in
confusion, then the user will stay invulnerable until it uses the move again or
switches out. While in this invulnerable state the user can use any of its
other attacking moves freely.
The PP for Dig is only deducted once it performs its second turn, but it still
cannot be selected in the first place if it has 0PP. Dig does not count as the
last move used on its first turn. Thus, Mirror Move will copy the move used
immediately preceeding Dig if the user of Dig is underground when Mirror Move
is used.
Earthquake cannot hit Dig-users in their 'underground' stage, unlike in future
generations.
Stadium: Dig counts as the last used move on its first turn. Thus, Mirror Move
can copy Dig on either of its turns. If the user is in the first, invulnerable
turn of Dig, they cannot be hit by Bide.
In addition, the invulnerable glitch mentioned above will not occur; if the
user of Dig is fully paralysed or hits itself in confusion while underground,
the user will resurface, Dig will not fully execute and no PP will be deducted
from it.
Field: Digs out of dungeons to return to the last visited Poke Center.
- Disable Normal 20/32 - 54.7% 0 Foe
Disables one of the target's moves at random for 0-6 rounds, as long as that
move still has PP remaining, which renders it unusable. The move will become
reusable in the round after Disable wears off. Only one move per Pokemon can be
disabled at any one time. If the foe selects a disabled move, they will be
prompted to select another move instead. If the foe has 0PP left for all of its
moves, Disable will fail.
In addition, if the foe has two of the same move in its moveset (through Mimic
or a glitch), all identical moves will effectively be disabled--selecting a
'clone' move will result in a wasted turn instead of a prompt to use another
move.
If you attack first in a round and the foe selects the move you just disabled,
they forfeit their turn. In the instance that Disable lasts zero rounds, the
aforementioned scenario will occur if you use Disable first and then the foe
will no longer be disabled at the end of the round. However, if you use Disable
second in a round and it happens that Disable lasts zero rounds, the foe
suffers no ill effects; they have already attacked first in that round and then
Disable will wear off at the end of the round.
If the foe has one move disabled and its other moves are out of PP or don't
exist, then the foe is forced to use Struggle if they wish to attack. Any turn
spent sleeping, frozen, recharging Hyper Beam, trapped (e.g. Wrap) or flinching
does not count towards the rounds spent disabled.
The disabled move can still be used if conjured through Metronome or Mirror
Move. Even if it misses, Disable causes Rage to build despite being a non-
damaging attack.
Stadium: Disable will only cause rage to build if it hits.
- Dizzy Punch Normal 10/16 70 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects. Although it confuses in later generations, Dizzy Punch has no
added effects in RBY.
- Double Kick Fighting 30/48 30 99.6% 0 Foe
Hits twice in one turn. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this
damage is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will
end mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage
from the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes
1PP and tests for accuracy.
- Double Team Normal 15/24 - -% 0 Self
Raises Evade by 1 stage.
- Double-Edge Normal 10/16 100 99.6% 0 Foe
Inflicts recoil damage on user for 25% of the damage inflicted on target. If
the user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result of recoil damage, the
enemy Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e. it won't lose any PP,
get damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc. No recoil damage is taken if
the user breaks a subtitute.
Self-inflicted recoil damage can be countered with Counter, so long as the foe
does not damage you in the meantime.
Stadium: No recoil damage is taken if the foe is KOed as a result of this move.
- DoubleSlap Normal 10/16 15 84.4% 0 Foe
Hits 2-5 times in one turn. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5% chance to
hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this damage
is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will end
mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage from
the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes 1PP and
tests for accuracy.
- Dragon Rage Dragon 10/16 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Inflicts 40HP set damage.
- Dream Eater Psychic 15/24 100 99.6% 0 Foe
Only works if target is sleeping. User recovers 50% of the damage inflicted on
the target. The minimum health that can be restored is 1HP, but it will not
restore any health to the user if it breaks a substitute.
Stadium: This move will miss if the foe is behind a substitute.
- Drill Peck Flying 20/32 80 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Earthquake Ground 10/16 100 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects. Earthquake does not hit foes who are in the underground stage
of Dig in RBY, unlike in future generations.
- Egg Bomb Normal 10/16 100 74.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Ember Fire 25/40 40 99.6% 0 Foe
Burns target (9.8%). Cannot burn a target behind a substitute.
- Explosion Normal 5/8 170 99.6% 0 Foe
User faints. Target's Defense stat is halved or set to 1 in damage
calculations--whichever is higher--effectively bringing this to 340 power. User
will not faint if it breaks a subtitute, although its sprite will disappear
unless it has a substitute or switches out.
If the user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result of this move, the
enemy Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e. it won't lose any PP,
get damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc.
Stadium: User still faints even if the foe's substitute is broken by this move.
- Fire Blast Fire 5/8 120 84.4% 0 Foe
Burns target (29.7%). Cannot burn a target behind a substitute.
- Fire Punch Fire 15/24 75 99.6% 0 Foe
Burns target (9.8%). Cannot burn a target behind a substitute.
- Fire Spin Fire 15/24 15 69.5% 0 Foe
See 'Partial Trapping Moves' below.
- Fissure Ground 5/8 - 29.7% 0 Foe
OHKO--does damage equal to target's current HP. Breaks substitutes instantly.
Fails if user attacks second in the turn.
- Flamethrower Fire 15/24 95 99.6% 0 Foe
Burns target (10%).
- Flash Normal 20/32 - 69.5% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Accuracy by 1 stage. The stat lowering effect cannot occur if
the foe is behind a substitute or under the effects of Mist.
Field: Lights up dark areas.
- Fly Flying 15/24 70 94.5% 0 Foe
Becomes immune to damage on the first turn (in the air) and then unleashes the
attack on the second. The only moves the foe can use that appear to penetrate
this first turn invulnerability are Bide, Swift and Transform. On the first
(charge) turn, the user can do nothing but fully execute Fly on the next turn
*unless* the user is fully paralysed or hits itself in confusion. Now, this is
where this move is glitched in RBY:
If on the first (charge) turn the user is fully paralysed or hits itself in
confusion, then the user will stay invulnerable until it uses the move again or
switches out. While in this invulnerable state the user can use any of its
other attacking moves freely.
The PP for Fly is only deducted once it performs its second turn, but it still
cannot be selected in the first place if it has 0PP. Fly does not count as the
last move used on its first turn. Thus, Mirror Move will copy the move used
immediately preceeding Fly if the user of Fly is in the air when Mirror Move is
used.
Thunder cannot hit Fly-users in their 'in the air' stage, unlike in future
generations.
Stadium: Fly counts as the last used move on its first turn. Thus, Mirror Move
can copy Fly on either of its turns. If the user is in the first, invulnerable
turn of Fly, they cannot be hit by Bide.
In addition, the invulnerable glitch mentioned above will not occur; if the
user of Fly is fully paralysed or hits itself in confusion while in the air,
the user will land back on the ground, Fly will not fully execute and no PP
will be deducted from it.
Field: Fly to any previously visited town or city. Unavailable in dungeons.
- Focus Energy Normal 30/48 - -% 0 Self
Totally glitched in RBY. Quarters your chance for a critical hit until you
switch out, are hit by Haze or are KOed.
Stadium: Focus Energy works as it is supposed to, quadrupling the user's chance
for a critical hit until they switch out or are KOed.
- Fury Attack Normal 20/32 15 84.4% 0 Foe
Hits 2-5 times in one turn. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5% chance to
hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this damage
is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will end
mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage from
the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes 1PP and
tests for accuracy.
- Fury Swipes Normal 15/24 18 84.4% 0 Foe
Hits 2-5 times in one turn. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5% chance to
hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this damage
is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will end
mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage from
the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes 1PP and
tests for accuracy.
- Glare Normal 30/48 - 74.6% 0 Foe
Paralyzes target. Works against Ghost types too.
Stadium: Cannot paralyse a target behind a substitute.
- Growl Normal 40/61 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Attack by 1 stage. The stat lowering effect cannot occur if the
foe is behind a substitute or under the effects of Mist.
- Growth Normal 40/61 - -% 0 Self
Raises Special by 1 stage.
- Guillotine Normal 5/8 - 29.7% 0 Foe
OHKO--does damage equal to target's current HP. Breaks substitutes instantly.
Fails if user attacks second in the turn. Cannot be countered, since it would
either kill the foe or break their substitute. Countering an OHKO move from
behind a substitute causes Counter to fail.
- Gust Normal 35/56 40 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Harden Normal 30/48 - -% 0 Self
Raises Defense by 1 stage.
- Haze Ice 30/48 - -% 0 All
Somewhat glitched in RBY. All stat modifiers return to normal (stage zero).
Removes the effects of Focus Energy, Leech Seed, Light Screen, Mist, Reflect
and confusion status ailment from both Pokemon. Toxic poison reverts to normal
poison for both Pokemon. Stat reductions due to burn and paralysis are negated.
Foe recovers from any 'major' status afflictions (burn, sleep, paralysis,
freeze and poison). If a Pokemon is frozen before it has the opportunity to
perform the recharge turn of Hyper Beam and is then unfrozen via Haze, that
Pokemon cannot do anything (including switch out) until it is KOed or the
battle ends.
Stadium: Cures both Pokemon of all status ailments.
- Headbutt Normal 15/24 70 99.6% 0 Foe
Flinches target (29.7%). Cannot flinch Pokemon behind a substitute or Pokemon
acting first in a round.
- Hi Jump Kick Fighting 20/32 85 89.5% 0 Foe
User receives 1HP crash damage if attack misses. Crash damage always occurs if
the user targets a Ghost type because the attack will always miss them. If the
user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result of crash damage, the enemy
Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e. it won't lose any PP, get
damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc.
The 1HP crash damage counts as damage to be stored up via Bide or Counter.
- Horn Attack Normal 25/40 65 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Horn Drill Normal 5/8 - 29.7% 0 Foe
OHKO--does damage equal to target's current HP. Breaks substitutes instantly.
Fails if user attacks second in the turn. Cannot be countered, since it would
either kill the foe or break their substitute. Countering an OHKO move from
behind a substitute causes Counter to fail.
- Hydro Pump Water 5/8 120 79.7% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Hyper Beam Normal 5/8 150 89.5% 0 Foe
User sacrifices next turn to recharge. Does not need to recharge if (a) it
causes the opposing Pokemon to faint; (b) it misses completely; (c) it breaks a
substitute; (d) the user is targeted by a partial trapping move, even if it
misses; (e) the user flinches before the recharge turn; or (f) the user falls
asleep before the recharge turn.
If the user uses Hyper Beam on the previous turn and the foe attacks *first*
and *misses* with the trapping move on Hyper Beam's recharge turn, the user
will automatically retaliate with Hyper Beam. Because the move is automatically
selected in this case, a glitch occurs if the move has 0PP left--it will still
be used and the current PP will roll over to 63. In addition, Hyper Beam will
now have Max PP as though three PP Ups had been applied to it.
If a Pokemon is frozen before it has the opportunity to perform the recharge
turn of Hyper Beam and is then unfrozen via Haze, that Pokemon cannot do
anything (including switch out) until it is KOed or the battle ends.
Stadium: Recharge turn always occurs unless Hyper Beam ends the match.
- Hyper Fang Normal 15/24 80 89.5% 0 Foe
Flinches target (9.8%). Cannot flinch Pokemon behind a substitute or Pokemon
acting first in a round.
- Hypnosis Psychic 20/32 - 59.8% 0 Foe
Inflicts Sleep.
Stadium: Cannot put to sleep a target behind a substitute.
- Ice Beam Ice 10/16 95 99.6% 0 Foe
Freezes target (9.8%). Cannot freeze Pokemon behind a substitute.
- Ice Punch Ice 15/24 75 99.6% 0 Foe
Freezes target (9.8%). Cannot freeze Pokemon behind a substitute.
- Jump Kick Normal 25/40 70 94.5% 0 Foe
User receives 1HP crash damage if attack misses. Crash damage always occurs if
the user targets a Ghost type because the attack will always miss them. If the
user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result of crash damage, the enemy
Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e. it won't lose any PP, get
damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc.
The 1HP crash damage counts as damage to be stored up via Bide or Counter.
- Karate Chop Normal 25/40 50 99.6% 0 Foe
Has an 8x chance for a critical hit.
- Kinesis Psychic 15/24 - 79.7% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Accuracy by 1 stage. The stat lowering effect cannot occur if
the foe is behind a substitute or under the effects of Mist.
- Leech Life Bug 15/24 20 99.6% 0 Foe
User recovers 50% of the damage inflicted on the target. The minimum health
that can be restored is 1HP, but it will not restore any health to the user if
it breaks a substitute.
Stadium: This move will miss if the foe is behind a substitute.
- Leech Seed Grass 10/16 - 89.5% 0 Foe
User places foe under Leech Seed minor status effect.
Leech Seed absorbs 1/16th of the target's Max HP at the end of their turn, even
if the target has less than 1/16th of its health remaining. The minimum health
that can be restored this way is 1HP. For example, a Pokemon with 8HP out of
160 that falls victim to Leech Seed will faint, but 10HP will be restored to
the user. Grass types are immune to Leech Seed.
The effect disappears if the target switches out or faints, or either Pokemon
uses Haze. The user of Leech Seed can switch and, so long as the foe is still
seeded, the newly switched in ally will then receive the health absorbed from
Leech Seed.
Leech Seed absorbs health at the end of a turn, after the effects of partial
trapping moves and recurrent poison or burn damage. If, however, the target
affected by Leech Seed KOs their opponent, then they will not be subjected to
Leech Seed (or any other recurrent damage) at the end of their turn. If the
target affected by Leech Seed knocks itself out at the end of its turn
(creating a Substitute, hitting itself in confusion or using Exploison, for
instance), its opponent will still gain health at the end of the turn, despite
the foe having no health to absorb.
If a Pokemon is seeded as it switches in, it will only take recurrent damage
from Leech Seed (and poison or burn) if its Speed is less than or equal to the
Leech Seed user's.
When used in conjunction with Toxic, the results compound. Toxic inflicts
1/16th damage on the first turn, 2/16ths the second... etc. With both in play
at once, Leech Seed absorbs more health per turn. On turn 1, Toxic damages
1/16th HP and then Leech Seed absorbs 2/16ths damage. Then on turn 2 Toxic
damages 3/16ths HP and Leech Seed absorbs 4/16ths damage...
- Leer Normal 30/48 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Defense by 1 stage. The stat lowering effect cannot occur if
the foe is behind a substitute or under the effects of Mist.
- Lick Ghost 30/48 20 99.6% 0 Foe
Paralyzes target (29.7%). Cannot paralyse Pokemon behind a substitute.
- Light Screen Psychic 30/48 - -% 0 Self
Halves user's Special stat for *defensive* calculations and quarters foe's
Special stat for *offensive* calculations (effectively just doubling user's
Speical for *defensive* calculations) until user switches out. The effect is
penetrated by critical hits and dissolved by Haze. Unlike future generations,
it does not pass over to other Pokemon when you switch, nor does it last five
turns.
- Lovely Kiss Normal 15/24 - 74.6% 0 Foe
Inflicts Sleep.
Stadium: Cannot put to sleep a target behind a substitute.
- Low Kick Fighting 20/32 50 89.5% 0 Foe
Flinches target (29.7%). Cannot flinch Pokemon behind a substitute or Pokemon
acting first in a round.
- Meditate Psychic 40/61 - -% 0 Self
Raises Attack by 1 stage.
- Mega Drain Grass 10/16 40 99.6% 0 Foe
User recovers 50% of the damage inflicted on the target. The minimum health
that can be restored is 1HP, but it will not restore any health to the user if
it breaks a substitute.
Stadium: This move will miss if the foe is behind a substitute.
- Mega Kick Normal 5/8 120 74.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Mega Punch Normal 20/32 80 84.4% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Metronome Normal 10/16 ?? ??% 0 ???
Performs a random attack from the entire set of moves in the game, using that
move's type and accuracy, with the exceptions of Metronome and Struggle. A move
called by Metronome always has 0 priority, so Quick Attack and Counter are
based on Speed instead. Counter will always fail if conjured by Metronome, and
Metronome can call and perform a locked move due to Disable.
If Metronome has 0PP and calls Hyper Beam or a partial trapping move and is
then forced to use that move again due to the mechanics of those moves, then
Metronome's PP will roll over to 63. In addition, Metronome will now have Max
PP as though three PP Ups had been applied to it.
Mirror Move will not copy Metronome; it will copy the move that Metronome
conjures.
- Mimic Normal 10/16 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Selects one of the target's moves at random and copies it into user's moveset
(replacing Mimic itself) until user switches, faints or the battle ends. The
mimicked move has 5PP which is separate from the PP of Mimic, but it will copy
the move's Max PP. There are no limitations to the moves that can be mimicked,
including Mimic itself, moves that the user already knows and Struggle (if the
opponent somehow has it as a move).
If Mimic copies either Hyper Beam or Wrap and the mechanics of those moves
force it to be used when it has 0PP remaining, then the PP will roll over to 63
for that move and it will now have Max PP as though three PP Ups had been
applied to it. In this situation, Mimic will keep the move's current PP (up to
a maximum of 63) if the user switches out and back in. In addition, any move
that Mimic copies from then will have Max PP as though three PP Ups had been
applied to it.
A Pokemon's moveset cannot consist of the same move twice or more except
temporarily via Mimic (or via cheating/glitching).
In-game: Mimic does not copy a foe's move at random; it lets you choose which
one of its moves you would like to copy.
Stadium: Mimic does not copy a move's maximum PP.
- Minimize Normal 20/32 - -% 0 Self
Raises Evade by 1 stage.
- Mirror Move Flying 20/32 ?? ??% 0 ???
Performs the move that the target just used. A move called by Mirror Move
always has 0 priority, so Quick Attack and Counter are based on Speed instead.
Mirror Move copies the move that Metronome calls insetad of Metronome itself.
Mirror Move will not copy Mirror Move or even the move that Mirror Move
conjures; it will simply fail. Mirror Move will also fail if no attack has been
made before Mirror Move is used.
If the user uses Mirror Move and target could have executed an attack but
didn't (e.g. switches, uses items) then Mirror Move will fail. If, however, it
couldn't have executed an attack (i.e. hit itself in confusion, becomes fully
paralysed, recharges or charges up for a two-turn move) then Mirror Move will
instead perform the last move the target executed.
Mirror Move can copy and perform a locked move due to Disable.
Stadium: Mirror Move will copy a two-turn move during either of its turns.
- Mist Ice 30/48 - -% 0 Foe
Causes target's moves that lower stat modifiers (e.g. Growl, Leer) to fail.
Effect remains if user faints, but can be dissolved by the user switching out
or either Pokemon using Haze. Secondary effect stat reductions (when a stat
reduction only has a chance of happening as a side-effect of a move, e.g.
Aurora Beam) are still fair game.
- Night Shade Ghost 15/24 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Inflicts damage equal to the user's Level. Can hit Normal and Psychic types
despite being a Ghost-type move.
- Pay Day Normal 20/32 40 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
In-Game: Gives money equal to 2x user's Level, regardless of who used the move,
provided you win the trainer battle.
- Peck Flying 35/56 35 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Petal Dance Grass 20/32 70 99.6% 0 Foe
User is will automatically use this move for 3-4 turns (including the turn this
move is selected) and becomes confused afterwards. If the user hits itself in
confusion or becomes fully paralysed during the sequence, then the sequence
will end and the user will not become confused.
If the user frozen, put to sleep, flinched or caught in a partial trapping
sequence, this move will continue to be used automatically once the condition
is lifted.
- Pin Missile Bug 20/32 14 84.4% 0 Foe
Hits 2-5 times in one turn. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5% chance to
hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this damage
is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will end
mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Only the first hit of the sequence
depletes 1PP and tests for accuracy.
- Poison Gas Poison 40/61 - 54.7% 0 Foe
Poisons target.
Stadium: Cannot poison a target behind a substitute.
- Poison Sting Poison 35/56 15 99.6% 0 Foe

Stadium: Cannot confuse a target behind a substitute.
- Psychic Psychic 10/16 90 99.6% 0 Foe

- Psywave Psychic 15/24 - 79.7% 0 Foe
Inflicts a random amount of damage strictly less than 1.5x the user's Level
rounded down. The minimum damage that can be inflicted is 1.
- Quick Attack Normal 30/48 40 99.6% 1 Foe
Always attacks first in a round, unless the foe also uses Quick attack, in
which case the normal rules for order determination apply.
- Rage Normal 20/32 20 99.6% 0 Foe
User is locked into automatically using Rage every turn until it faints or the
battle ends. User's Attack is raised by 1 stage every time it is damaged by the
foe or targeted by Disable--even if Disable misses.
User will only spend 1PP for the initial use of Rage--all subsequent forced
uses are PP-free. If the user is asleep or prevented from using Rage in any way
other than KO, Rage will continue to be used once the effect has passed. If the
user hits itself in confusion it will still use Rage on that turn.
If Rage misses due to anything other than type immunity of the target (i.e.
Ghost-type foe) then the accuracy of Rage will be reduced to 1/256 for all
subsequent turns, due to a glitch.
Stadium: If Disable misses against the Rage-user, it will not cause the Rage-
users attack to increase by 1 stage.
- Razor Leaf Grass 25/40 55 94.5% 0 Foe
Has an 8x chance for a critical hit.
- Razor Wind Normal 10/16 80 74.6% 0 Foe
A two-turn attack. The first turn does nothing and then on the second turn, PP
is deducted and the attack is executed. The second turn is forced to occur
unless the user hits itself in confusion or is fully paralysed--then the second
turn is forfeited and the user must choose an attack again.
If the user frozen, put to sleep, flinched or caught in a partial trapping
sequence, this move will continue to be used automatically once the condition
is lifted. Mirror Move will only copy this move once its second turn has been
executed; if the user of Mirror Move attempts to copy the first turn of this
move, it will instead copy the last move the target of Mirror Move used.
Stadium: Mirror Move can copy this move on its charge-up turn as well.
- Recover Normal 20/32 - -% 0 Self
Heals 50% of the user's Max HP. Fails if user's (Max HP - Current HP) mod 256 =
255. In other words, in any legitimate scenario, this move fails if the user's
HP is full, 255 below Max HP or 511 below Max HP.
Stadium: Recover cannot fail unless the user already has full health.
- Reflect Psychic 20/32 - -% 0 Self
Halves user's Defense stat and quarters foe's Attack stat (effectively just
doubling user's Defense) until user switches out. The effect is penetrated by
critical hits and dissolved by Haze. Unlike future generations, it does not
pass over to other Pokemon when you switch, nor does it last five turns.
- Rest Psychic 10/16 - -% 0 Self
User sleeps on the turn this move is used and then on the following turn,
restoring its HP to full and curing all major status effects; it then wakes up
on the turn after that (and cannot attack on the turn it wakes up).
Although burns and paralysis are cured, the stat drops associated with each
staus effect (Attack and Speed respectively) will not be negated until the user
switches out. Also, curing Toxic poison through Rest will not reset the damage
multiplier for Toxic--if you get Toxic poisoned again, the damage will continue
at whichever rate it left off from.
Fails if HP is full, 511HP below Max HP or 255HP below Max HP. All status
afflictions cured but any stat modifiers as a result of status afflictions are
not cured until user switches out.
Stadium: Rest will reset the damage multplier for Toxic poison.
- Roar Normal 20/32 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Does nothing.
In-Game: Ends wild battles.
- Rock Slide Rock 10/16 75 89.5% 0 Foe

acting first in a round.

Fighting-type move.
- Scratch Normal 35/56 40 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Selfdestruct Normal 5/8 130 99.6% 0 Foe
User faints. Target's Defense stat is halved or set to 1 in damage
calculations--whichever is higher--effectively bringing this to 260 power. User
will not faint if it breaks a subtitute, although its sprite will disappear
unless it has a substitute or switches out.
If the user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result of this move, the
enemy Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e. it won't lose any PP,
get damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc.
Stadium: User still faints even if the foe's substitute is broken by this move.
- Sharpen Normal 30/48 - -% 0 Self

Inflicts Sleep.
Stadium: Cannot put to sleep a target behind a substitute.
- Skull Bash Normal 15/24 100 99.6% 0 Foe
A two-turn attack. The first turn does nothing and then on the second turn, PP
is dedcuted and the attack is executed. The second turn is forced to occur
unless the user hits itself in confusion or is fully paralysed--then the second
turn is forefeited and the user must choose an attack again.
If the user frozen, put to sleep, flinched or caught in a partial trapping
sequence, this move will continue to be used automatically once the condition
is lifted. Mirror Move will only copy this move once its second turn has been
executed; if the user of Mirror Move attempts to copy the first turn of this
move, it will instead copy the last move the target of Mirror Move used.
Stadium: Mirror Move can copy this move on its charge-up turn as well.

unless the user hits itself in confusion or is fully paralysed--then the second
turn is forefeited and the user must choose an attack again.
If the user frozen, put to sleep, flinched or caught in a partial trapping
sequence, this move will continue to be used automatically once the condition

the foe is behind a substitute or under the effects of Mist.
- Softboiled Normal 10/16 - -% 0 Self
Heals 50% of the user's Max HP. Fails if user's (Max HP - Current HP) mod 256 =
255. In other words, in any legitimate scenario, this move fails if the user's
HP is full, 255 below Max HP or 511 below Max HP.
Stadium: Softboiled cannot fail unless the user already has full health.
Field: Distributes 20% of user's HP among other party members.
- SolarBeam Grass 10/16 120 99.6% 0 Foe
A two-turn attack. The first turn does nothing and then on the second turn, PP
is dedcuted and the attack is executed. The second turn is forced to occur
unless the user hits itself in confusion or is fully paralysed--then the second
turn is forefeited and the user must choose an attack again.
If the user frozen, put to sleep, flinched or caught in a partial trapping
sequence, this move will continue to be used automatically once the condition
is lifted. Mirror Move will only copy this move once its second turn has been

- SonicBoom Normal 20/32 - 89.5% 0 Foe
Inflicts 20HP set damage.
- Spike Cannon Normal 15/24 20 99.6% 0 Foe
Hits 2-5 times in one turn. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5% chance to
hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this damage
is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will end
mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage from
the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes 1PP and
tests for accuracy.
- Splash Normal 40/61 - -% 0 Foe
Does nothing.
- Spore Grass 15/24 - 99.6% 0 Foe
Inflicts Sleep.
Stadium: Cannot put to sleep a target behind a substitute.

Flinches target (29.7%). Cannot flinch Pokemon behind a substitute or Pokemon
acting first in a round.
- Strength Normal 15/24 80 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
Field: Can be used to move heavy boulders.
- String Shot Bug 40/61 - 94.5% 0 Foe
Lowers target's Speed by 1 stage.
- Struggle Normal 10/16 - -% 0 Foe
Automatically used if user is out of PP or otherwise unable to use any moves
due to Disable etc. PP for this move is infinite, even if it is hacked on to a
Pokemon as a moveset move. Inflicts recoil damage on user for 50% of the damage
inflicted on target. If the user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result
of recoil damage, the enemy Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e.
it won't get damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc. No recoil damage is
taken if the user breaks a subtitute.
As an aside, Struggle is Normal in RBY and not typeless like in future
generations. Therefore, Struggle cannot hit Ghost types and is not very
effective against Rock types.
Stadium: No recoil damage is taken if the foe is KOed as a result of this move.
Also, Struggle is typeless, so it can hit Ghosts.
- Stun Spore Grass 30/48 - 74.6% 0 Foe
Paralyzes target. Works against Ghost types too.
Stadium: Cannot paralyse a target behind a substitute.
- Submission Fighting 25/40 80 79.7% 0 Foe
Inflicts recoil damage on user for 25% of the damage inflicted on target. If
the user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result of recoil damage, the
enemy Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e. it won't lose any PP,
get damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc. No recoil damage is taken if
the user breaks a subtitute.
Stadium: No recoil damage is taken if the foe is KOed as a result of this move.
- Substitute Normal 10/16 - -% 0 Self
User sacrifices a quarter of its HP to creates a substitute with (int(user's
Max HP/4) + 1) HP which absorbs damage for the user. It takes damage as if it
has the stats, current stat modifiers and types of the user, and will break
once its HP reaches zero. Damage does not overflow to the user if the
substitute breaks. Any stat modifiers (boosts) the user has after the
substitute is made will also be applied to the substitute. Instant OHKO moves
such as Horn Drill will break a substitute if successful.
Behind a substitute, the user acquires immunity to poison, flinch, stat
modifying moves such as Growl and Leech Seed. The user is also immune to the
secondary effects of damaging moves whilst behind a substitute, such as Fire
Blast not burning or Stomp not flinching. The exception to this is secondary
confusion. For some reason, primary confusion moves such as Confuse Ray do not
affect the user, but secondary confusion such as from Confusion may still get
through the substitute.
Substitute does not block the effect of trapping moves like Bind (although the
substitute will absorb the damage until it breaks), so the user will still be
unable to attack if it is caught in a trapping move. HP draining moves such as
Absorb do not restore health to the attacker if the substitute is destroyed by
the attack. Self-inflicted confusion damage from the user will hit the
substitute, but crash damage from Hi/Jump Kick, recoil damage (e.g. Take Down)
and recurrent damage from poison and burn will not.
If Selfdestruct or Exploison break a substitute, the attacker will not faint.
Likewise, if Hyper Beam breaks a substitute, the recharge turn afterwards does
not apply. If a Pokemon breaks a substitute with a recoil-inducing move such as
Take Down, that Pokemon will not suffer the recoil effects. Using Substitute at
exactly a quarter of Max HP remaining will cause the user to faint. Trying to
use the move at less than a quarter of Max HP remaining will cause the move to
fail.
Stadium: Substitute guards against any and all status effects. It also provides
immunity to the damage and effects of draining moves such as Absorb. If
Selfdestruct or Exploison break a substitute, the attacker will faint. Trying
to use the move at exactly a quarter of Max HP remaining will cause the move to
fail.
- Super Fang Normal 10/16 - 89.5% 0 Foe

- Take Down Normal 20/32 90 84.4% 0 Foe
Inflicts recoil damage on user for 25% of the damage inflicted on target. If
the user goes first in a turn and is KOed as a result of recoil damage, the
enemy Pokemon will skip the remainder of its turn--i.e. it won't lose any PP,
get damaged from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc. No recoil damage is taken if
the user breaks a subtitute.
Stadium: No recoil damage is taken if the foe is KOed as a result of this move.
- Teleport Psychic 20/32 - -% 0 Self
Does nothing.
In-Game: Ends wild battles.
Field: Teleport to last visited Poke Center. Unavailable in dungeons.
- Thrash Normal 20/32 90 99.6% 0 Foe
User is will automatically use this move for 3-4 turns (including the turn this
move is selected) and becomes confused afterwards. If the user hits itself in
confusion or becomes fully paralysed during the sequence, then the sequence
will end and the user will not become confused.
If the user frozen, put to sleep, flinched or caught in a partial trapping
sequence, this move will continue to be used automatically once the condition
is lifted.
- Thunder Electric 10/16 120 69.5% 0 Foe
Paralyses target (9.8%). Cannot paralyse a target behind a substitute. In RBY,
Thunder cannot hit Pokemon using Fly.

Paralyses target (9.8%). Cannot paralyse a target behind a substitute.
- Toxic Poison 10/16 - 84.4% 0 Foe
'Badly' poisons the target. Cannot poison a target behind a substitute. Toxic
increases in damage each turn, dealing 1/16th HP damage at the end of the first
turn, then 2/16ths, then 3/16ths, 4/16ths, etc. The minimum damage it can do
per turn is 1.
It reverts to normal Poison if the afflicted Pokemon switches out and then back
in or if the afflicted Pokemon uses Haze. If the afflicted Pokemon uses Rest to
cure itself of Toxic and then gets hit by the move Toxic again, the damage
sequence will begin where it left off and continue to increase as it had done
before. Toxic can be used in conjunction with Leech Seed to rapidly increase
damage to target--see 'Leech Seed', above.
Stadium: Rest will reset the damage multplier for Toxic poison.
- Transform Normal 10/16 - -% 0 Foe
Transforms into the target. The user inherits the species, type(s), stats (but
not HP), moves (5 temporary PP each), catch rate and stat modifiers of the
target. The user's own stat modifiers before transforming are lost. The user
retains its Level. User remains transformed until it switches or is KOed.
Critical hits will deal damage based on the user's pre-Transform stats.
In-Game: A wild Pokemon that uses Transform will always become a Ditto when it
is caught, regardless of its original species. The only thing that will not
change is the HP it had when you caught it. You should watch out for this if
performing the Mew glitch on a Mew of L10 or higher.
Stadium: Transform will fail if used against a Ditto.
- Tri Attack Normal 10/16 80 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects. Although it inflicts a random status effect in later
generations, Tri Attack does nothing special in RBY.
- Twineedle Bug 20/32 25 99.6% 0 Foe
Hits twice in one turn. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and this
damage is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit. Will
end mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Counter only counters the damage
from the final hit of this move. Only the first hit of the sequence depletes
1PP and tests for accuracy. Poisons target after both hits land (19.8%).
- ViceGrip Normal 30/48 55 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Vine Whip Grass 10/16 35 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Water Gun Water 25/40 40 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Waterfall Water 15/24 80 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Whirlwind Normal 20/32 - 84.4% 0 Foe
Does nothing.
In-Game: Ends wild battles.
- Wing Attack Flying 35/56 35 99.6% 0 Foe
No extra effects.
- Withdraw Water 40/61 - -% 0 Self
Raises Defense by 1 stage.
- Wrap Normal 20/32 15 84.4% 0 Foe

Partial Trapping Moves
----------------------
(This details the moves Bind, Clamp, Fire Spin and Wrap.)
Hits once per turn for 2-5 turns. 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, 12.5%
chance to hit 4 or 5 times. Damage is only calculated for the first hit and
this damage is repeated for the rest of the hits, even if it is a critical hit.
Will end mid-sequence if it breaks a substitute. Only the first hit of the
sequence depletes 1PP and tests for accuracy. The damage is done after end-of-
turn recurrent damage from poison, burn or Leech Seed etc.
During this sequence, the foe will be unable to select an attack. The sequence
ends naturally after 2-5 turns, when the user switches or when the user becomes
fully paralyzed mid-sequence. In the latter two cases, the target will remain
immobilised for that turn.
If the foe switches out and the user selects the 'Fight' option, the trapping
move is automatically used against the newly switched in Pokemon. In this case,
1PP is used and accuracy is tested again. Because the move is automatically
selected in this case, a glitch occurs if the move has 0PP left--it will still
be used and the current PP will roll over to 63. In addition, the trapping move
will now have Max PP as though three PP Ups had been applied to it.
Wrap and Bind's secondary effects still occur against Ghost types despite being
Normal-type moves--that is, the damage will not be inflicted on the target, but
they will still be immobilised regardless, as outlined above.
If the target uses Hyper Beam on the previous turn and the user uses the
trapping move on Hyper Beam's recharge turn, then the target using Hyper Beam
will not have to recharge, even if the trapping move misses. If, in this
situation, the user attacks *first* and misses, the target will automatically
retaliate with Hyper Beam. Because the move is automatically selected in this
case, a glitch occurs if the move has 0PP left--it will still be used and the
current PP will roll over to 63. In addition, Hyper Beam will now have Max PP
as though three PP Ups had been applied to it.
In-game: The foe will get to choose a move for each turn it spends immobilised.
If the sequence ends due to the user switching or being fully paralysed mid-
sequence, the foe will retaliate with its selected move.
Stadium: The foe will get to choose a move when it is immobilised. If the
sequence ends due to the user switching or being fully paralysed mid-sequence,
the foe will *not* retaliate with its selected move. If the target uses Hyper
Beam on the previous turn and the user uses the trapping move on Hyper Beam's
recharge turn, then the target using Hyper Beam will not have to recharge, but
only if the trapping move does not miss. If it misses, the Hyper Beam user will
then have to recharge.

[L05] Pokedex +
_________________________________________________
This is an explanation of the information and data you can find in the Pokedex,
as well as a representation of its layout.
- Pokedex Data
Type: A Pokemon can have one or two types, which determine which moves gain
a 1.5x damage boost and which types deal multiplied damage to it. For
more information on the fifteen types, check out section B02; 'Your
Pokemon'.
Species: The species name given to the Pokemon by the Pokedex. It loosely
states what kind of animal/object/thing it is based on.
Height: Self-explanatory. Measured in feet and inches.
Weight: Ditto. Measured in pounds.
Red/Blue: The Pokedex entry from Red and Blue versions.
Yellow: The entry from Yellow version.
- Damage Received
A chart detailing how much the damage will be multiplied by if the Pokemon
takes a hit from certain types.
- Stats
The Pokemon's base and max stats, as well as a Base Stat Total for both RBY and
GSC versions. Base stats indicate how powerful a Pokemon is in that particular
stat (where 80 is about average for a fully evolved Pokemon), while the Max
stat tells you the absolute highest that particular stat can go for that
Pokemon. The stats are HP, Attack (Atk), Defense (Def), Special Attack (SpA),
Special Defense (SpD) and Speed (Spe). However, in RBY, Special Attack and
Special Defense are rolled into one Special stat. One of either SpA or SpD is
the Pokemon's Special value in RBY and this is indicated by an asterisk (*)
next to the correct stat--unless, of course, both SpA and SpD are the same.
The Base Stat Total (BST) is simply the total of all the Pokemon's base stats,
surprisingly. The RBY BST is always lower, simply because either SpA or SpD
will be assimilated into the opposing stat.
- Evolution Chain
Details the Pokemon this Pokemon can evolve into or from and the method for
achieving this.
- Miscellaneous Data
Base Exp: The higher this number is, the more Exp. you will gain from this
Pokemon in battle. More for information, see section M10;
'Experience Formulae'.
Capture Rate: The higher this number is, the easier the Pokemon is to catch,
with 255 being the highest.
Growth Rate: Pokemon belong to either the Fast, Medium, Medium Slow or Slow
category, and will level up at that rate. In other words, Pokemon
in the slower groups will require more Exp. to achieve a Level.
For more information, see the section mentioned above or L02;
'Experience Charts'.
Held Item: When a Pokemon is traded to GSC, it will be holding the item
specified here.
- Natural Moves
Details the moves the Pokemon will learn naturally by levelling up. Moves
learned may be different for Red/Blue, Yellow, Gold/Silver and Crystal
versions, so I have included all versions. I have only included moves that can
be traded back to RBY in the GSC columns--this might prove useful in cases like
Bulbasaur's, who learns Sleep Powder at L41 in RBY but L15 in GSC.
A level of '--' indicates that the Pokemon starts with the move. Sometimes a
move will be listed two or even three times--this is not a mistake--which
simply means that the game data exists for the Pokemon to relearn that move if
it has forgotten it by the time it reaches the required level.
- TMs/HMs
A list of all the TMs and HMs that the Pokemon can learn. Any RBY move which
can be taught via a GSC TM will also be included.
- Tradeback Moves
By trading to GSC and back again, a Pokemon can pick up RBY moves it couldn't
otherwise learn. In this section, I will outline the moves which can ONLY be
learned from GSC and the methods by which you can learn them. Competitively,
these moves are illegal in 'pure RBY' battles, which ban tradeback moves.
Also note the moves labelled 'NYPC'. Many years ago they did some promotional
events in Japan and New York where they gave away Pokemon with these special
moves for GSC. Now, of course, these Pokemon are all but impossible to obtain,
but nevertheless these are still legal moves competitively if you're not
playing 'Pure' RBY.
- Illegal Moveset Combinations
Sometimes, you can't have certain move combinations on a Pokemon, due to
conflicts in how those moves are learnt. These combinations are listed here. A
'(Gen I)' tag next to a combination means that the combination is only illegal
in 'pure' RBY, but can be learnt through generation II games.
