Red and Blue Walk Though

Pallet Town This the starting place of the game. Your mom will tell you that Prof. Oak wants you. Try to leave the town and Prof. Oak will come get you. He leads you to his lab, where you will be able to choose your first Pokemon. There is Bulbasaur (easy to train), a plant-type Pokémon; Charmander (hard), a fire-type Pokémon; and Squirtle (intermediate), a water-type Pokémon. Your rival, Gary, will pick up another Pokémon which is stronger. When you try to leave, Gary will challenge you to a Pokémon duel. Beating it will give you a nice boost in experience(It will raise a level too), and $175, making your money total $3175 now. Your first pokémon will be at level 5 to start with, so if you keep it strong, it will be a very good asset. Go back to your house. On the PC, you can withdraw a Potion from your hard drive. Your mom will, starting now, give free rests to you and your Pokemon. Route 1 This leads north to Viridian city. You'll encounter Pidgeys and Ratattas. Defeat some for experience and try to raise at lease two levels for yourPokemon. A boy on the way explains that he is a Poke Mart worker at Viridian City, and he will give you a free Potion as a sample. What a nice guy. Viridian City Talk to the Shop clerk and then head back to Pallet Town with the Parcel. Give it to Prof. Oak and he will give you and Gary each a Pokédex, which is an electronic encyclopedia. He will tell you of his dream to complete the pokedex (by capturing/having captured all pokemon in the game) to you. Gary will act arrogant and walk off, but you can get a Town Map from his sister, contrary to what he said. Go back to the city. The gym's doors are locked, and they won't unlock for a very long time until you've beaten the other 7 trainers in the game. Buy some Poke Balls and talk to the old man to learn how to capture Pokemon. A boy will talk about caterpillar Pokemon. If you go west towards the Pokemon HQ, you will fight Gary. He captured another Pokemon. After you fight him, he will tell you you need Badges to go through. Around here, you can also pick up a few Nidorans. Route 2 Pick up a Pidgey and/or a Ratatta. You can get higher-level ones in the future, but if you train hard they will grow stronger better than the higher-leveled ones. You can also get Caterpies and Weedles. Viridian Forest On your way through Viridian Forest, you should pick up a Pikachu (!!), a Caterpie, and a Weedle. Don't get Kakunas and Metapods, since Caterpie and Weedle will evolve into one eventually. There are a few easy trainers in the forest, they are Bug-catchers and use bugs, so fire works very well on them. The first has a pair of caterpillars at Lv. 6 (Caterpie/Weedle). The second has 2 Lv. 7 Weedles and a Lv. 7 Kakuna. The final trainer has a Lv. 9 Weedle. There is a Poke Ball, Anidote (comes in handy from the Weedles), and a Potion in the forest. Makes nice additions to your arsenal. By the way, the Pikachu is a VERY good asset because its only weakness is against ground Pokemon, and it is my favorite Pokemon anyway :-) Pewter City (Boulderbadge) The Gym here starts out with a JR. Trainer with a Lv. 11 Diglett and Lv. 11 Sandshrew. You probably never met these two, but a good hint is that Diglett will be strong against your Pikachu, so use water on it. Water also works well on the Sandshrew. Plant does too. Brock, the Gym Leader has a Lv .12 Geodude and a Lv. 14 Onix, 2 Rock-type Pokémon. Water works very well on these. Be careful for the Onix's BIND (a multiple-hit move in which your pokemon is immobile during it) and BIDE, a move where it absorbs damage for some turns and returns it double. When it does BIDE, I suggest either beating it very quickly or do non-damaging attacks like TAIL WHIP or GROWL, so you are debilitating him without taking damage. If you defeat him, Brock will congraulate you and give you BIDE, TM 34. I suggest giving it to a pokemon with high hit points, and it is best used against pokemon with high defense and high offense, because the damage done doesn't care about the enemy's defense at all. You can look around the museum, but the $50 it costs is unreasonable, since you can't get anything there except looking at fossils of Aerodactyl and Kabutops, two extinct pokemon which you might get later. Route 3 This leads east from Pewter City to Mt.Moon. Get a Spearow if you want. But it is very crucial for a collector to pick up a Jigglypuff, since this is the only place you'll see it. There are also many trainers along the way for money and experience. I suggest you to train the Pikachu and your original Pokemon strongly. You will meet two new kinds of trainers: Youngster and Lass. The former likes pokemon such as Rattatas, the latter likes "cute" pokemon like Clefairies and Jigglypuffs. Mt. Moon Heal up at the Poke Center. A man will sell a Lv.5 Magikarp to you. It seems weak but will evolve into the powerful Gyarados at Lv.20. See if it is worth the $500 he wants. Don't worry if you don't get it, though, since you can get it later by fishing for it. Time to walk into the cave! You will meet two new kinds of trainers (again). Super Nerds who likes nerd stuff like Voltorbs or Magnemites, and Hikers with rock pokemon like Geodude. There are also many pokemons in the cave, Zubat (beaten by Pikachu easily) and Geodude (weak against water) are more common than Paras and Clefairies (who are indigenous to this place). After walking in, take a left and you'll get TM12, which contains WATER GUN. Going up will yield a Potion and a Bug-catcher. Now, you can go east futher into the cave with a few trainers loafing around. Going south at the fork will let you take a Potion, a Rare Candy (automatic Level Increase), and an Escape Rope (Lets you go to the last Poke Center). Under the first stairwell, there is a Rocket (gang members with a variety of good pokemon), along with a HP-UP that increases a pokemon's HEALTH permanently. Keep on going, past a Lass with a pair of Lv. 11 plant pokemon (Bellsprout/Oddish), and go into the second staircase. Another Rocket is here, guarding TM01 (MEGA PUNCH). You will also find an Ether hidden in a solitary rock. Going up, left, and finally to a staircase guarded by a Hiker. Above him is the first piece of the Moon Stone, so don't forget to get that. Enter the staircase anf fight 3 Rockets in a row and finally a Super Nerd with a Grimer, a Voltorb, and a Koffing. Here you can get one of two fossils. You can choose the Helix Fossil or the Dome Fossil. The Helix Fossil will become Omanyte and the Dome Fossil will become Kabuto when you take them to the Pokemon Laboratory on Cinnabar Island. Route 4 Out already? After you cross the last ledge, you are stuck and can not go back. So take the TM04 on the way first. Cerulean City (Cascadebadge) The Gym here is owned by Misty, who has a Staryu and Starmie. Pikachu can make short work of both of them if you trained it well. (Lv. 20 or 21 recommanded) But watch out for Starmie's BUBBLEBEAM, a strong water attack that does a lot of damage and may reduce speed. Go ahead and beat her and get the BUBBLEBEAM TM. Go north and fight Gary again. He now has a Lv. 18 Pideotto, a Lv. 15 Abra, a Lv. 15 Rattata, and whatever he started with. On the way you will fight 5 trainers in a row for a prize, only to find out that it was a plan by TEAM ROCKET to recruit new members. You'll refuse the ROCKET's order and fight him, getting a Nugget (useless object, sell it for $5000) if you win. Go east here, through Route 25. You will get the S.S. Anne Ticket from Bill after a few more trainers. Getting back in, Bill will share information about Eevee and its evolutions. You can trade a Poliwhirl for Jynx here. The Jynx can only be gotten this way. Polywhirls evolve from Poliwags and will be very easy to get in the future. A guy will tell you the badge's uses. Behind his house is a hidden rarecandy. You can get Bellsprouts (BLUE) / Oddish (RED) and Abras here. (Route 24 and (Route 25) The Abra is unique to this city, so get one. Authough I usually get two because one could be traded away later for a Mr. Mime. Abra only has the TELEPORT move, but when it evolves at Lv.16 to a Kadabra, it will get more attacks. It is also a good "utility" pokemon because Teleport can run away from battles and return you to the last Poke Center. After that, go to the house previously blocked by a policeman. Fight the ROCKET and he will give you the TM 28. (an excellent TM because it is very powerful and is useful against electric pokemon as well.) Onward south, there is a Pokémon Daycare Center. The man there will care for one Pokémon and raise its level while you are gone for $100 * (1 + no. of levels it gains). At the end of the road, there is a big building which is a gate house for Saffron City. At this point, the guard will not let you through. The smaller building is the entrance of underground passage to Vermilion City. You can trade a Nidoran (m) for a Nidoran (f) here. Route 11 Don't forget to get the exclusive Drowzee here. It is one of the first, and one of the best psychic pokemon. On the way, you can also get Meowth (BLUE). The only places to capture him are by Cerulean, Vermillion, Celadon, or Lavender. His PAY DAY attack will give you money in battle. And no, this is not necessarily the TEAM ROCKET Meowth... :-) Vermilion City (Thunderbadge) Here you can get the Bike Voucher by visiting the Pokémon Fan Club. It will let you get the bike in Cerulean City for free. (like you are ever going to get $1000000...) There is also an old man who will give you an Old Rod, which could fish for Magikarps only. A third thing is that a boy will trade a Far'Fetched for a Spearow. After that, go to S.S. Anne to the south. You can get on the boat with the S.S. Ticket. On the boat, there are many trainers and items. You'll find your first Great Ball here. Gary will be here (again) with a different appearence. After you beat him you can talk to the captain. He will give you HM 01 (cut) after you help him through his seasickness. Then boat will take off when you exit. The HM is very important. It will now let you do things you couldn't do before, like going back to Pallet Town, or getting Old Amber in the back door to Pewter City's museum. The Diglett's cave to the east has some high-level Digletts and Dugtrios. If you get them they will help you a lot for the boss. Now, teach HM 01 to a Plant-type Pokemon. The move is even good in battle sometimes! Go to the southwest of the city, CUT a bush, and go to the Gym. The leader there has a electric lock door. You have to find one switch, and another switch which is always BESIDE it. Defeat Lt. Surge, the gym leader, who has a Voltorb, a Pikachu(!!) and a Raichu(!!!). Digletts and Dugtrios can defeat them easily, as well as anyone you gave your DIG technique to. Talk to him afterwards to get TM 24, which contains THUNDERBOLT, a powerful version of THUNDERSHOCK. One of the Prof. Oaks' aids is also in a building to the east. He will give you the Itemfinder if you have more than 30 Pokemon. This item finds items... duh. But not too important really. By him is a guy who will trade a Nidorino for your Nidorina. After this, go into the Diglett's cave again. It will lead you near Pewter city and you can do things you couldn't do before. A person will trade a Mr. Mime for an Abra. So if you have a spare one, trade it. (This is the only way to get a Mr. Mime) You can also get HM 05 (flash) from one of Prof. Oak's aides if you caught more than 10 Pokemon. Then go back and up to Cerulean City. From there go east into the Rock Tunnel. Rock Tunnel It is very dark inside, you need a Pokemon equipped with HM 05. Pick up an Onix and a Machop here if you want. It is quite long and there are quite a few Pokemaniacs and Miners in there. Luckily, a Poke Center is right by the entrance to get you started up. Lavender Town In the northeast section of the town there is a big building, Pokemon Tower. But you can't do much there now. There is, however, a man who will "rate" and rename your Pokemon. You'll hear a lot of stories. Mainly about a Cubone who lost his mother, a kind Mr.Fuji's disappearence, and the ghosts in the Pokemon Tower. To the south are many fisherman eager for battle. Let them have their fun. This is a good chance to train electric and plant pokemons. That includes Pikachu (!!). Route 8 Near the city, the BLUE players will find Meowths, Sandshrews, and Vulpixs, while the RED ones will find Glowlithes, Ekans, and Mankeys. After some collecting, go west through the tunnel to Celadon City after you pick up a Vulpix. (BLUE) Celadon City (Rainbowbadge) Celadon is the biggest city in the whole game. You can get an Eevee from a back entrance to the Game Freak, Inc. building. You can buy stones from the Mart to evolve him -- and many others for this matter. You can use Thunder Stone to evolve Pikachu, Fire Stone to evolve Vulpix, Leaf stone to evolve Weepinbell, etc. The Gym leader Erika uses plant Pokemon. Fire is useful here (Vulpix, for that matter). After the battle, you will recieve a TM with MEGA DRAIN. Give it to your favorite plant Pokemon. This useful move does a lot of damage and gives half of it to your pokemon as health. Walk around for a bit. There are many interesting things in Celadon.. 1.Store ------- You can buy stones, items, TMs, and drinks. Give 3 kinds of drinks to the girl on the last floor, since she will give you a TM for each drink. Get an extra drink, you'll need it.The TMs they will sell: TM32 DOUBLE TEAM $1000 TM33 REFLECT $1000 TM02 RAZOR WIND $2000 TM07 HORN DRILL $2000 TM37 EGG BOMB $2000 TM01 MEGA PUNCH $3000 TM05 MEGA KICK $3000 TM09 TAKE DOWN $3000 TM37 SUBMISSION $3000 2.Game Corner ------------- Play the slot machines here, but you need Coin Case and coins to play. The Coin Case is in one of the other buildings. Some of the people playing will
