Hello, and welcome to the English version of Donphan's PokÈmon Gold/Silver
strategy
guide. You may or not know me by my Japanese version of this guide, or guide for other
various PokÈmon Games.
Nothing much to say. I fixed small errors and zipped it up for the millenium
edition release. You'll notice I also moved the Version History section to the bottom.

3. Walkthrough For Routes 1-46
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
You are about to embark on a long journey. When the game begins, you will notice
that Professor Oak has overslept! He needs you to set the time for the game. Program in
the correct time, and you will get Professor Oak's lecture.
Professor Oak's comment will explain the world of PokÈmon. If you played
previous
versions of PokÈmon, you'll know what he's talking about.
You will begin your journey in New Bark Town. you will be in your bedroom inside of
your house. When you leave your room to go downstairs, you will be interupted by your
mother. She will ask you what day of the week it is, and you will get your PokÈGear. If
you
are not falmilliar with the PokÈGear, you can have your mother explain it to you. Now
you
can go get your first PokÈmon.
Leave your house, and head left. You'll notice a large building. This is Professor
Elm's labratory. He will greet you, and ask you for a favor. He'll give you a PokÈmon.
Afterwards, outside, you'll notice someone spying in the window. Who could this be?
You'll
find out very soon.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
3.01 Who should you choose?
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
Chikorita
The grass type PokÈmon. Only advanced players should choose Chikorita,
for it is the hardest route to take when you are in jouhto, but it great for the second
half of the game.
Totodile
The water type PokÈmon and my favorite of the three. You will not encounter
any hard trouble throughout the game with Totodile, because it has no real disadvantage
at
any gym.
Cyndaquil
The fire type PokÈmon, and your best bet of the three. Jouhto will be easy,
but the second half of the game won't. He is the most popular PokÈmon of all of them.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
After recieving your 'partner' Elm will then give you his number and tell you to
call him if you ever need his assistance.
Continue along Route 29, collecting the items, and talking to the people. You may
notice a building that leads north. This building does not serve a purpose in this part
of
the game. It will, however, be used later.
Make your way to the next town, Cherrygrove City. At the entrance of the town, you
will notice an old man standing there. He has been a PokÈmon Trainer for a long time,
so
he knows a lot about the world. Take his tour of Cherrygrove, and he will give you the
map, which will be accessible through your PokÈGear.
Heal your PokÈmon, and head north out of town. Continue going north, until you
reach a fork in a road. Inside this house, you will find a man that will trade you an
Onix.
Take the right fork, and you will eventually come across a building. Inside, Professor
Oak
will give you a PokÈdex, and an egg, which was to be studied at Professor Elm's lab.
Once you get outside, you will recieve a Phone Call on your Cell Phone informing
you that a PokÈmon has been stolen! He needs you to come to his lab immedeatly. As you
reach the exit of Cherrygrove, you will bump into a person. This is the person who was
lookig in Prof. Elm's lab earlier, and above all, the PokÈmon Theif.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
3.02 Who did your Rival Choose?
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
This can vary. If you chose Chikorita, he will have Cyndaquil. This is because fire
is super-effective against grass.
If you chose Totodile in the beginning, he will counter it with a Chikorita,
because grass has an advantage against water.
Finally, if in the beginning of the game, you chose Cyndaquil, the fire type, he
will have stolen Totodile, because his water PokÈmon has an advantage against your
fire
type PokÈmon.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
After you defeat your rival (or lose), return to Professor Elm's lab. He will be
there with a police officer, and will ask you what the boy's name was. You will then be
prompted to name your rival. Afterwards, the police officer will leave, and Professor Elm
will examine the egg. His lab aid will give you 5 PokÈBalls for your effort on your way
out.
Take Cherrygrove city north, fighting trainers along the way until you come
across the fork in the road. Take the left fork, and keep going north, until you come
across a new town. Welcome to Cherrygrove City.
First, go all the way north in the town. You will come up to a very tall
building. This is the Sprout Tower. This is the building where you'll be getting Flash!
Go
inside, fighting trainers. Eventually, you will reach the top of the tower. You will get
a
chance to see your Rival fighting the Leader there. He will lose, and leave the building,
not challenging you to a match. You can now fight the leader of Sprout Tower.
After defeating Sprout tower, it is time to go to the Gym Leader, Falkner!
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
3.03 Faulkner and The Zephyr Badge!
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
Gym leader: Falkner
For: Zephyr Badge
Prizes: $900 and TM31
Pidgey- If you picked Cyndaquil, he will work well against Pidgey. Totodile will also
fare well. However, Chikorita is weak against flying type PokÈmon, but if it was
trained
fairly, it should do well.
Pidgeotto- You may find Pidgeotto a little more difficult than Pidgey, but it shouldn't
be too much of a problem for you as long as you have a well balanced team. Use Sentret if
you can. Depending on your version, you can have either Ledyba or Spiniarak.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
Congradulations, you have achieved your first badge, and by now, you should at
least have your starting PokÈmon evolved.
After exiting the gym, you receive a phone call from Prof. Oak. He tells you to
pick up something important at the PokÈmon Center. When you get to the PokÈmon
center,
you will see one of Elm's aids. He will give you a PokÈmon egg. The egg will hatch at
about 2,000-3,000 steps.
Now proceed west of Voilet City. There is a tree-like PokÈmon blocking your path!
Oh well, you can still go south. Once you enter the building, you'll be in the Ruins of
Aplh.
There are many things you will be able to do here later, but if you'd like, you
can (It's Not Manditory) solve the Kabuto Puzzle, which will open a floor below you, and
will allow you to catch a variety of Unowns. Unown has 26 different shapes- one for each
letter of the alphabet! Try to collect them all later.
Follow the checkpoint that heads east to Route 32. Fight trainers along the way
down. A man standing near the PokÈmon Center will try to collect 1,000,000 Dollars
from
you but will not be able to do it, because you don't have enough. He will mumble
something about kids today being loaded with money and will leave you alone.
SPECIAL: On Fridays, a girl will be just north of the PokÈmon Center. Her name
is Frieda and she will give you 'Poision Barb,' an item that raises the PokÈmon
eqqiped with it's Poision Attacks.
Enter the cave, and fight the trainers inside along the way. There aren't many,
but fight them anyway to strengthen your team now, because it will pay off big time
later.There really isn't much you can do in this cave now, but come back when you have
surf to fully explore it.
SPECIAL: On Fridays, in Union Cave, after you have Surf, you can catch a Lapras.
Lapras will appear even after you have caught it so you may catch as many as you'd like!
After exiting the cave, you will find yourself on Route 33. Fight HIKER ANTHONY
and get his Phone Number. He will supply you with information on some rare PokÈmon
later in your journey.
When you get to Azalea Town, you will notice a strange man blocking the
entrance to Slowpoke Well. Talk to Kurt, and he'll scare off the person, who you find
out is a part of the New Team Rocket that has reformed after being expelled from the
world 3 years ago. When you go down into Slowpoke Well, you will find Kurt injured
and unable to move, You will have to remove of the remaining Team Rocket Members on
your own.
Defeat the Team Rocket Members, and return to Kirts house. He will award you
with a LURE BALL, a ball which gives you a higher chance of catching PokÈmon you
encounter while using a ROD to fish.
Now, you are able to go to The Azela Town Gym, where you will fight Bug-Type
PokÈmon.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
3.04 Bugsy and the Hive Badge
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
Gym Leader: Bugsy
For: Hive Badge
Prizes: TM49, PokÈmon up to Level 30 Obey
Metapod - Lv.14 - An extremely easy PokÈmon to beat. You may want to use one of your
weaker PokÈmon against Metapod to gain some easy levels.
Kakuna - Lv. 14 - Another easy PokÈmon to beat. Once again, you should be working on
leveling up your weaker PokÈmon for experience Points.
Scyther - Lv. 16 - You've fought your easy PokÈmon, and now it's time for a small
challenge. If you chose Cyndaquil, Scyther will be VERY easy. Any other type of PokÈmon
strong against Bug-Types will fare well, too.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
After you defeat the gym leader, immedeatly go to the PokÈmon Center and save your
game. It's time to fight your Rival Again.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
3.05 Rival Battle #2
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
For: [Nothing]
Gastly - Lv 12 - Gastly will be easy if you have a normal PokÈmon with an attack that
isn't normal type. Gastly is unable to attack normal type PokÈmon, and Normal type
PokÈmon
are unable to attack Gastly.
Zubat - Lv. 14 - Zubat shouldn't be difficult at all either. Any PokÈmon will fare
well
against it. The only attack to look out for is Leech Life, which drains HP from you
PokÈmon and gives some of it to Zubat.
AND
Croconaw - Lv 16 - If your Rival has Croconaw, it'll have Watergun. That is the only
attack to watch out for. If you have Cyndaquil, don't use it here. Use a grass type
PokÈmon if avalible.
OR
Bayleef - Lv. 16 - If your Rival Has a Bayleef, watch out for it's Razor Leaf attack! It
has a great chance of getting a critical hit, which Can be very painful, considering
critical attacks do 1.5 times the damage.
OR
Quiliva - Lv. 16 - Nothing much to worry about here. Quiliva shouldn't be problem at all
for you.
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
Now go north, and into a house that will lead you into
the forest. You see that a boy has lost his Farfetch'd, after
returning it to him, his father will come along and give you
the HM01, Cut.
Cut the shrub, and continue going north. You will
eventually reach a town much similar to Celadon City. It will
have a large shop, and it will be the largest town in the game.
This town is also a very important town.
The gym here will use normal type PokÈmon. Watch out,
her Mirutanku is extremely powerful.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Akane                             |
| For: Normal Badge                             |
|                                               |
| Clefairy- Looks can be decieving, and you'd   |
| better pray that Clefairy doesn't use         |
| Metronome on you. Have a quick and Powerful   |
| PokÈmon like Rattatta or Raticate.            |
|                                               |
| Mirutanku- Mirutanku has a strange attack that|
| makes your PokÈmon get woozy. Your PokÈmon    |
| not attack the Mirutanku for a few turns, but |
| while waiting to attack, Mirutanku will attack|
| you with a powerful pound-like attack. Once   |
| again, have a powerful and quick PokÈmon      |
-------------------------------------------------
When you are done, talk to the gym leader to receive
your badge and TM. Go north, and into the park to fight many
trainers, believe me, you need the expirence. Go to the most
upper  righthand house in the town, and a lady will give you
something  called 'Squirtle Water'. Now you can fight the
tree PokÈmon, Usokki, that you could only move slightly
before. Catch this PokÈmon, for it is rare. Go northwest, to
reach the next town. In this town, a man will trade you a
Krabby for a Shelder.
A trainer just east of where Usokki used to be will
give you the TM08 (Rock Smash) ability. This will allow you
to break the rocks and free the Legendary Cats.
Before you go, you can also go upstairs in the shop and
purchase a TM02, which will allow you to shake trees. You can
fight all sorts of old and new PokÈmon in the trees, so shake
all the little trees you find.
The gym here in this town will specialize in ghost PokÈmon. Your
PokÈmon should be at around level 30-35. You will have to follow a trail
to get to the gym leader. Once you get to the Gym leader, and believe me,
she's no joke:
------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Matsuba                           |
| For: Phantom Badge                            |
|                                               |
| Gastly- Her easiest PokÈmon she will use, but |
| still isn't too easy. Try using a water or    |
| fire attack, but don't waste your time using a|
| normal type- it won't work against ghost.     |
|                                               |
| Haunter-  Both Haunters and Gengar will use an|
| extrelemy powerful attack that will hurt them |
| about half way, but curses you and hurts you  |
| very much every time you attack.              |
|                                               |
| Gengar- Gengar isn't easy at all- infact it is|
| one of the toughest battles you will face in  |
| the entire game. Look out for that powerful   |
| attack that Haunter, it is exactly the same   |
| only coming from a much stronger PokÈmon.     |
|                                               |
| Haunter- Use the same strategy that you used  |
| against the previous Haunter.                 |
------------------------------------------------
After defeating the gym, go to a house in the northern part of the
town. The trainers here will use Eevee evolutions, which includes two new
Eevee evolutions. After you defeat them all, a man will award you with the
surfing HM03.
A farm which has Mirutaknus, I'm guessing it would be called
Mirutanku farm will have a sick Mirutanku. The plant which gives you items
next to the town will give you a fruit that will heal the Mirutanku after
about after 7 or so. The mother inside the house will award you with a TM,
and the dad in the house gives you milk, which heals PokÈmon HP.
When you get to the next town, you'll find the gym here to be
completely empty, except for the person who alwasy stands next to the
statue at the entrance.
You might want to heal your PokÈmon at the PokÈmon center now, and
take out a PokÈmon you would like to learn strength. Now, go to the house
in the most southwestern part of the town. A person inside will give you the
Strength HM, HM04.
Now you have to equip strength and surf on your PokÈmon. Keep surfing
south, fighting the trainers here, gaining expirence.
Eventually, you will come to a small town. In the southern part of
the town, you will see the gym. You fight two trainers in the gym, and then
come up to a boulder maze. Move the left and right boulder up, and then push
the middle boulder to the left. You will fight one more trainer, and then you
will come up to the gym leader.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Shijima                           |
| For: Shock Badge                              |
|                                               |
| Primeape- A bird PokÈmon would be a good bet, |
| but my Raticate had no problem and Primeape is|
| strong against it.                            |
|                                               |
| Poliwrath- Fly may be a good use for Poliwrath|
| because it is not very fast, a Yorunozuku can |
| easily knock out this PokÈmon                 |
-------------------------------------------------
After you beat the gym, go south to a house. A guy inside the house,
wearing sunglasses will give you some medicine. Take this medicine and go
back to the fifth gym, but don't forget to get the Fly HM, HM02, from the
house nearest the gym, and also important is the medicine from the house with
the guy who will be wearing sunglasses, for the medicine he gives to you is
what you need to give to Mikan, so she can heal her sick PokÈmon.Assend the
light house, and give the medicine to the gym leader at the top. She will
give the medicine to her sick PokÈmon and then return to her gym. She
introduces a new type of PokÈmon here called the steel type.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Mikan                             |
| For: Steel Badge                              |
|                                               |
| Magnemite- Looks easy, but it's sonic boom    |
| attack is very powerful, even against PokÈmon |
| that are strong against it. Use a Geodude or  |
| Graveler to prevent serious damage.           |
|                                               |
| Magnemite- Use the same strategy as you did   |
| with the last Magnemite.                      |
|                                               |
| Haganail- Another stong PokÈmon that likes to |
| use Powerful attacks. Make sure you have a    |
| rock, ground or fast PokÈmon if you want to   |
| win the match.                                |
-------------------------------------------------
After defeating the gym leader here, go east, and through the route
change house. Someone takes some of your money for no reason at all! Now go
north, taking the grassy path, as not to be charged 1,000 for every path you
take on the Team Rocket side. Eventually, you will come up across a lake. You
can see something in the lake. When you fight it, it turns out to be a
Gyrados! Try to catch it.
After getting out of the water, you will notice Lance, the dragon
trainer waiting for you. You will talk to him, and he will take you to the
'shop' in the town with the ghost gym. He will show you a secret underground
passageway in the shop, and you will follow him downstairs, only to fight a
many Rocket trainers. Eventually, you will meet up with Lance again, and he
will heal your PokÈmon. He will then go off again, and you have to keep
fighting many Rocket trainers. There are many items here, and make sure you
have room for all of them. Also, talk to each and every Team Rocket trainer
you beat, and you will get the keycard to the second level door.
Once on the second level, open the door, and fight the trainer. He
will give you the first level keycard. Go to the first level. Lance and you
fight each fight two Rocket trainers. A girl and a boy. Lance takes on the
boy with his Dragonite, and You fight the girl, who may look falmilliar to
you.
After defeating the Rocket Trainers, you and Lance need to shut down
the power supply to the generator. You can do this by defeating the
Electrodes.
Finally, now that you've destroyed the generator, Lance will award
your hard work with an, HM06, the whirlpool remover HM.
You can now enter the Ice gym, or gym No. 7. Getting to him will be
tough, so I made an ice maze strategy. When you first enter the gym, move to
the very left if the left statue. Go up, up, right, down, left, up and
finally right. You will be standing in front of the gym leader. Good luck!
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Yanagi                            |
| For: Ice Badge                                |
|                                               |
| Seel- An electric attack will put seel out for|
| the match. Not very strong.                   |
|                                               |
| Dewgong- Just slightly better than Seel. It   |
| might even get an attack on you. (oh no!)     |
|                                               |
| Inomu- A powerful, but slow PokÈmon, Inomu    |
| rely on ice moves to win the match. Use an    |
| water PokÈmon like Marril.                    |
-------------------------------------------------
You will get a phone call informing you that the city in which you
recieved your third badge, the one with Mirtanku, the cow PokÈmon, has been
overrun by Team Rocket! Fly to the city, and you will see that Team Rocket
has pretty much overrun the whole city. Go back to the building with the
Jigglypuff inside of it. This is where all of the Team Rocket trouble is
going on. Go on up the tower, defeating trainers, and defeat the final guy
at the top of the tower.
One of the people in the underground tunnel will give you an Eevee
if you have a space in your inventory.
Now you have to go to an underground tunnel outside. When you are in
the tunnel, go right, to the door that was once locked. You recieved the key
when you defeated the final person atop the tower. Be ready for a fight with
your rival. He will have the final evolution of his starting PokÈmon. Defeat
the Rocket trainers, and play around with the switches until you get over to
the elevator. Fight the woman, and then take the elevator up. You should now
be able to open the once locked door back in the Team Rocket tower.
Go to the third floor, and defeat the last of the Rockets, and return
to the seventh town. Go right and fight the trainers. Marril lovers can catch
a Marril here. Now enter the cave. The first Ice maze is the most diffucult,
but, I have the solution on how to complete it! Complete it by standing on
the area right below the ice. Now, go up, left, up, right, up, right, down,
left, up, left, down, right, down, right, up, right.
When you complete the first ice maze, go right and get the PokTball.
You will get a HM07, or waterfall climbing HM, which can later be taught to
Goldeen. From here go to the next floor, and use strength to move the
boulders to the lower level, so you can get out.
When you get out, you will be at the 8th town. There is a very useful
person here who can remove your PokÈmon's moves that are unwanted, but most
importantly, you can now go to the eighth gym. This gym is a dragon gym.
Again, you will need strength to move boulders to the lower level to
reach the gym leader.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Ibuki                             |
| For: Raging Badge                             |
|                                               |
| Dragonair- A pretty intiminating PokÈmon, that|
| turns out to not be too much of a challenge at|
| all. If you move ahead first, and catch Inomu |
| from the Ice Cave, you can use ice moves to   |
| defeat it.                                    |
|                                               |
| Dragonair- Use the same strategy as you used  |
| on the last Dragonair                         |
|                                               |
| Kingudora- Seadra finally gets used by a      |
| dragon trainer- well at least it's evolved    |
| form. Again, use ice attacks, but electric    |
| will work too, since this is also a water     |
| PokÈmon.                                      |
|                                               |
| Dragonair- Her final, PokÈmon Dragonair, is a |
| bit more powerful than the previous ones. It  |
| will use the Hyper Beam attack, as well as    |
| Dragon Rage. Thunder won't work this time, so |
| once again, you must rely on Ice PokÈmon to   |
| defeat Dragonair.                             |
-------------------------------------------------
After defeating her, she tells you she has no badge for you. You can
still get the badge, though, by taking a PokÈmon that has surf and one that
can remove whirlpools, and surfing behind the gym. When you are  about to
pick up one of the PokÈballs, she will show up, awarding you with your eighth
badge! You can also now use the HM07 you got in the ice cavern.
We now move on to the hunt for Houou! Fly back to the town where you
fought the ghost gym before. Go to the northern part of the town. You can
enter a house here and go upstairs. You will have to solve a puzzle to get to
the top. However, the puzzle is worth it, when you get to the top, you will
see Houou flying there. Save before you fight Houou, for you will only get
one chance to catch it. After you catch it, you can fly from the roof instead
of going back down the maze. Fly back to your hometown.
Once home, go to Prof. Utsugi's lab and heal your PokÈmon. Now go
outside and surf eastward. You will eventually come up to a coastal area with
a cave. Enter the cave. I suggest you catch a Goldeen and teach it HM07, so
you can go up the waterfalls. The cave is simple, and when you get out, you
may want to look at the map. Keep moving northward, until you come up upon a
house. A girl inside will heal all of your PokÈmon. Keep going north,
fighting trainers. You will find yourself in a much simpler, trainer-free
Victory Road. Here you can catch for the very first time, the best PokÈmon,
Donphan. Be prepared, for your rival will have many strong PokÈmon with her.
You fight her because she wants to see if you are really ready for the
Orange league.
The Orange League Trainers will use:
-------------------------------------------------
| Trainer 1: Itkusi                             |
|                                               |
| Neiteio- A penguin PokÈmon. It will use ice   |
| and psychic attacks- a powerful combination.  |
| Houou's gust attack is enough to put the      |
| penguin to rest                               |
|                                               |
| Slowbro- A water and Psychic PokÈmon. Slowbro |
| may be very slow, but he is very powerful. Try|
| using an electric type PokÈmon against it.    |
|                                               |
| Neiteio- Use the same strategy that you used  |
| against the last Neiteio.                     |
|                                               |
| Jynx- Like Neiteio, Jynx is another psychic   |
| and ice PokÈmon. It's defense is extremely low|
| so any PokÈmon should be able to put Jynx out.|
|                                               |
| Exeggutor- A grass and Psychic type PokÈmon.  |
| One Fire Blast from Houou should do the trick |
| on this one.                                  |
|                                               |
|-----------------------------------------------|
| Trainer 2: Koga                               |
|                                               |
| Araidosu- A bug PokÈmon. Hopefully, your Houou|
| is still consious, because any flying or fire |
| attacks will put this bug out.                |
|                                               |
| Venomoth- Another bug PokÈmon that will be a  |
| pain if your Houou has fainted. It will use   |
| powerful psychic attacks, and almost every    |
| PokÈmon are very vunerable to.                |
|                                               |
| Muk- A poision PokÈmon that Houou will not be |
| strong against. Use a water type or a normal  |
| type. (Raticate will do)                      |
|                                               |
| Kuroba- Being the evolved form of Golbat, it  |
| has strong flying and annoying poision        |
| attacks.                                      |
|                                               |
| Fuoretosu- Is this the evolved form of        |
| Cloyster? Maybe, but it's a water type, and it|
| has very high defense, and Houou may not be   |
| able to do it. Use your starting PokÈmon if   |
| you didn't pick the Fire type.                |
|                                               |
|-----------------------------------------------|
| Trainer 3: Bruno                              |
|                                               |
| Kaporea- For some odd reason, this PokÈmon    |
| likes to stand on his head. A bird type, Houou|
| or Lugia will do.                             |
|                                               |
| Hitmonchan- The punching fiend. It will use   |
| various elemental punches, so there really    |
| a PokÈmon that it isn't super effective       |
| against. Use a bird type again.               |
|                                               |
| Hitmonlee- The kicking fiend. It uses various |
| kicking attacks. Go ahead, use another bird.  |
| This might be a good PokÈmon to get a         |
| Togechikku expirence points with.             |
|                                               |
| Machamp- A PokÈmon with high attack Power, but|
| low defense. A quick bird PokÈmon should do   |
| the trick.                                    |
|                                               |
| Onix- Onix is a simple PokÈmon that is not too|
| hard if you have a water or grass PokÈmon.    |
| Even using the simplest moves of these types  |
| will take care of it.                         |
| ----------------------------------------------|
| Trainer 4: Karin                              |
|                                               |
| Burakki- Appears to be an evil evolution of   |
| Eevee. It shouldn't be too hard if you have   |
| just about any type besides a normal or grass |
| type PokÈmon.                                 |
|                                               |
| Vileplume- A grass type PokÈmon that will be  |
| easy for any bird type. Using fly would be    |
| your best bet against this PokÈmon.           |
|                                               |
| Gengar- Remember the ghost gyms Gengar? This  |
| is the same thing, only much harder. Again, it|
| has curse, which will stab itself, and attack |
| you very much after or before every turn. Be  |
| careful and make sure you have a strong and   |
| quick PokÈmon.                                |
|                                               |
| Yamikarasu- A very fast, but not too strong   |
| PokÈmon that looks much like a Spearow. It    |
| take adventage of it's quickness and try to   |
| hurt you before you can hurt it. A fire,      |
| electric, or ice type will do.                |
|                                               |
| Heruga- A fire type dog PokÈmon of the evil   |
| type. It has many strong attacks, so make sure|
| you have a water PokÈmon handy.               |
|                                               |
| ----------------------------------------------|
| Final Trainer: Lance                          |
|                                               |
| Gyrados- A Dragon and flying type PokÈmon,    |
| gyrados is extremely weak to  electric type   |
| attacks. If not, any slash or bite attack will|
| take longer, but it will have to do.          |
|                                               |
| Dragonite- An extremely strong PokÈmon, and it|
| doesn't make you feel any better to know that |
| he has three of them. Use an ice attack, or   |
| again, a slash.                               |
|                                               |
| Dragonite- Use the same strategy as you used  |
| the previous dragonite.                       |
|                                               |
| Dragonite- Again, use the same strategy you   |
| on the previous two Dragonites.               |
|                                               |
| Aerodactyl- A very powerful PokÈmon, again    |
| with the hyperbeam attack. Use a water,       |
| electric, or ice attack to defeat this flying |
| rock.                                         |
|                                               |
| Charizard- Lance's Charizard will have a Hyper|
| beam attack, as well as fire attacks. Be quick|
| because this PokÈmon is very powerful.        |
------------------------------------------------|
After defeating the Orange League Trainers, you've beaten the first
half of the game. A very impatient news reporter comes, and expects you to
"do" an interview with you. Finally, Lance will become impatient and take
you into the next room to be inducted into the hall of fame while the news
reporter lady paces back and fourth saying "What about my interview!" The
credits will roll, while playing some snappy music, and finally the game will
say the end. Don't turn your Gameboy off yet, the game isn't over.
There is no more fighting your rival at the end of the game....well
at least yet. The game isn't over yet!
After the credits finish rolling, go into Prof. Utsugi's lab. He will
give you a boat ticket! Take that ticket back to the town with the light
house and where you got strength. Go south, until you reach a house that
takes you down to a docking bay. Here you can get on the boat. Once on the
boat, you will fight many trainers. Fight them all, it is fun. Afterwards,
you will talk to a guy in a room that looks like he works on the ship. Talk
to him, and he will leave the room. When you get off the boat, you will find
yourself in Vermillion City!
Feel free to look around a little bit. You see the gym looks pretty
much the same and the PokÈmon club is also still there. However, this time,
the city has a giant snorlax blocking the path to Diglett's Cave. First, heal
your PokÈmon. Now, go get the Ultra Rod from the fishing man. Now it is time
to go and face Lt. Surge.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Lt. Surge                         |
| For: Orange Badge                             |
|                                               |
| Raichu- Lt. Surges most powerful, Raichu likes|
| to use strong electric attacks. A strong rock |
| or ground type PokÈmon should be enough to    |
| beat it.                                      |
|                                               |
| Magneton- Lt. Surges most annoying PokÈmon,   |
| Magneton uses it's speed and cheap attacks to |
| win the match. Once again, use another strong |
| rock or ground type PokÈmon to win.           |
|                                               |
| Electabuzz- A strong and fast PokÈmon, that,  |
| like Raichu uses strong electric attacks. It  |
| is a pure electric type PokÈmon, so rock or   |
| ground with an ice move, maybe a Kabuto or    |
| Kabutops will be perfect.                     |
|                                               |
| Electrode- A weak, but fast electric PokÈmon, |
| Electrode won't really be much of a challange |
| for you. Use an ice or rock type              |
|                                               |
| Electrode- Use the same strategy as you used  |
| on the previuos Electrode to beat it.         |
-------------------------------------------------
After easily defeating Lt. Surge, it is time to go to Saffron City.
Once you get to Saffron City, you'll notice that Silph. Co. Has been blocked
off by a guard who won't let you go upstairs. Anyway, we aren't worrying
about Silph. Co. right now. We are worrying about your tenth badge right now.
You have to fight Sabrina. After all these years, she is still working as a
PokÈmon Gym Leader. Her gym is exactly the same, and the trainers are still
there. This time, it is harder to avoid gym trainers in her gym, because
they are constantly looking in all different directions. They also have a
longer sight range. You should fight them anyway. Sabrina has a new look, but
she doesn't look entirely different like some other trainers will further in
the game.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader: Sabrina                           |
| For: Gold Badge                               |
|                                               |
| Mr.Mime- An easy, but annoying PokÈmon,       |
| Mr.Mime will like to mimic your attacks and   |
| minimize itself during battle.                |
|                                               |
| Alakazam- A Very powerful, but also very weak |
| defensive PokÈmon, Alakazam uses pure psychic |
| moves, so be careful.                         |
|                                               |
| Eifi- Another weak PokÈmon, maybe a little bit|
| stronger, Eifi will also use psychic attacks, |
| so be careful.                                |
-------------------------------------------------
She is even easier than Lt. Surge, but not the easiest trainer in the
world.
Befor anything, go to the power plant near Cerulean City.
You will have to surf to get there. Inside the Power Plant, talk
to everybody. When you are leaving, someone will say something
to you. Leave the power Plant.
Now you have to go to Cerulian City. When you get there,
you will notice that the place looks pretty much the same. However,
when you go into Misty's gym, you'll notice that the gym is empty.
A Team Rocket trainer will bump into you and leave. After you leave
the gym, go north. You will be going in the direction where Bill's
lighthouse used to be. You will fight the Rocket Trainer you met in
the gym and he will confess to you after you beat him that he hid
something in the Cerulian City gym.
Take the piece that you got from the gym and go to what
used to be the power plant in older PokÈmon games. The person here
will thank you and give you a TM, and you are now eligible for a
radio upgrade. Go back to Lavander town and go in the radio station.
The man standing looking at the wall will give you a radio upgrade,
which allows you to awaken the Snorlax.
It isn't over yet. Now you must go to Vermillion City, and
enter the PokÈmon Lovers Club. A man sitting at the table will give
you his PokÈmon doll that was sitting next to him. Remember copycat
from Saffron City in Red,Blue, Yellow, and Green? She of course
still loves dolls, and does a really creepy impression of you, but
when you bring her the doll, she will give you an item that will
allow you to travel between the two maps much easier.
Go back to the gym. In the little pool in the middle, you will find
what the trainer was talking about, a missing part that belongs to the power
station in the left upper corner. When you reach what used to be Bill's
lighthouse, you will find Misty, and she will be smooching, as quoted from
PokÈmon Zero. She will then return to her gym, suprised from what just
