Cinnabar Island |
First you must FLY to Pallet Town. Save your game and go South. From here SURF down south, catch a tentacool on your way you should eventually find Cinnabar Island. Here you'll want to take the fossil from earlier and go into the research center to the left of the Pokécenter. Go to the 3rd door down and give the man in the back a fossil, go to the Mart and then back into the center to pick up your new Pokémon. Repeat with the amber and you'll get Aerodactyl. Now go and heal your Pokémon, buy some supplies, buy some Burn heals, and save. Go into the burned out building (This is a rough walkthrough, not exact) in here, go North and examine the statue(A), it should have a switch, press it and go upstairs. Do the same on this floor (Read the notes if you wish, they tell the story of Mew and Mewtwo). On the 3rd floor you should press the switch and go South, don't fight the scientist but instead go(there are two exits, a big one to the left and a smaller one to the right) take the exit to the left, you should land on the 1st floor but in an area you couldnt get to. Defeat the scientists and get the Secret Key. Now exit the building (If you have an Escape Rope its better) and you can now fight Blaine, the Fire gym leader he has: Growlithe 42, Rapidash 42, Ponyta 40, Arcanine 47.If you chose Squirtle or Charmander this will be a cinch. Use A strong Water Pokémon or a semi-strong water Pokémon and a semi-strong fire Pokémon to absorb the damage. You will have to defeat almost every trainer here to advance. The VOLCANO BADGE increases your Pokémon's abilities a little. Now your ready to go to the Seafoam Islands. In the mansion you can catch: Koffing, Weezing, Growlithe (red), Grimer, Muk, Vulpix (Blue), Magmar (Blue), and Ponyta. |
Seafoam Islands |
From the Pokécenter, heal your Pokémon and go to the Mart. First prepare with Ice Heals, the highest potion at that time,2 escape ropes, and lots of Ultra balls.Take a Fire Pokémon(Ponytas a great choice if you don't have Charmander),an Electric Pokémon (A well leveled Pikachu or Raichu is good),a Pokémon with STRENGTH, a Pokémon with SURF,and Your starting Pokémon (If you don't have Charmander),you should also bring a high level Butterfree or a high level grass Pokémon (With sleep powder).SURF East until you get to the Seafoam Islands. Here prepare to face level 50 Pokémon(They won't all be level 50 but I know one will...).Save and go inside, then get on your Bike and ride downstairs. Ride until you reach the water and SURF, you should be swept into another screen. Go East and you should see a blank space(only a 1 step space) search it and you should find an item. From there do North and get onto land, get on your Bike and Ride West (Not up the stairs) and go up the new set of stairs (DO NOT SURF! You'll be swept away).You should go Southeast and Push the Top Left boulder North 2 spaces, Push the opposite boulder you just pushed into the hole (but don't go in yourself). And push the remaining boulder in the hole opposite to the one you just were using. Once you've completed that, jump in the hole. Now SURF North until you reach a island with a Pokémon just standing there. Save your game and fight him, use your fire Pokémon and weaken him.Now take the Pokémon with sleep powder and put him to sleep. Now throw Ultra Balls until you catch him (Make sure you do or else you'll have to start all over). Articuno is level 50 and very difficult to beat, also he only appears once per game (like all other Pokémon just standing there).Now use an escape rope and save. Here you can catch: Seel, Dewgong, SlowPoké, Slowbro, Psyduck, Golduck, Horsea, Seadra, Krabby, Kingler, Zubat, Golbat, Shellder, Staryu |
Viridian City 2 |
From Cinnabar Island Fly to Viridian City. Save and go to the gym. Squirtle and Bulbasaur will easily beat all Pokémon in here, Charmander should be substituted for a high level bird Pokémon (level 50 Fearow is a good choice) a high level Water or Grass Pokémon (In here either is good) If you have a high level dugtrio or other guy with dig I would use him against the posion type Pokémon. I won't reveal the gym leader for spoiler reasons but his/her Pokémon are: Dugtrio 42, Rhydon 50, Nidoking 45, Nidoqueen 43,and Rhyhorn 45. Beating him/her gives you the EARTH BADGE which makes all Pokémon obey. Now that you have all 8 badges, go to Pokémon league which is at the west of Viridian City. |
Pokémon League/Victory Road |
You'll have to fight Gary along the way to Victory Road. He's hard but easy enough to beat. You have to bring a Pokémon with STRENGTH and one with SURF. Bring some Ultra Balls, Max Potions, Escape Ropes, and a few Full Heals. Now go through Victory Road and be careful (Moltres is in there but I cannot give directions).I can't give directions but heres some tips: 1.If you see a boulder with somewhere to push it, Do it, 2.Try To avoid trainers because its hard enough without them, 3.Try to run from most battles, the enemies here are just too strong to fight them all. Once through victory road you'll be at Indigo Plateau. |
The Elite 4 |
Now its time to beat the Elite 4,but you have to prepare first. Get LOTS of Full Restores (You'll need them more than anything). You don't need much else in items, a Pokéflute you should take too. Now, bring only your strongest Pokémon and try to make sure they're over level 60. |
| Lorili |
Now first you must fight Lorili, her Pokémon are Dewgong, Cloyster, Slowbro, Jynx, and Lapras . Use a strong Electric type for the first 3 then use a fire type for the last 2.
|
| Bruno |
The next person is Bruno, his Pokémon are Onix, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Onix, and Machamp. I'd suggest a water or grass Pokémon. |
| Agatha |
Agatha's next, her Pokémon are Gengar, Golbat, Haunter, Arbok, and Gengar. I usually put them to sleep first and then attack. |
| Lance |
The last one is Lance,his Pokémon are Gyarados, Dragonair, Dragonair Aerodactyl, and Dragonite.Start out with a strong electric type for Gyarados and then use a ice type. |
| Gary |
Now for Gary
First he'll send out a Pidgeot, then Alakazam, then Rhydon, after that it vary's a little depending on who you chose as your starting Pokémon.
If you chose Squirtle he would have: Gyarados, Arcanine, and Venesaur
If you chose Bulbasaur he would have: Exeggutor, Gyarados, and Charizard
If you chose Charmander he would have: Arcanine, Exeggutor, and Blastoise
I use my Raichu for his Pidgeot, then my Venesaur to put Alakazam to sleep, then I use Venesaur again for Rhydon, Then I use Rapidash for Exeggutor, Raichu for Gyarados, and then I use Articuno for Charizard (Charizard is part Flying which makes him open to ice attacks.) |
| The End |
League Champ
Now that you're league champ you can get Pokémon #150, Mewtwo go to cerulean city, and go north surf in the water downwards and then go into the cave, I won't tell you where to go it's preety simple. The Pokémon in the Unknown Cave are: Dodrio, Venomoth, Kadabra, Rhydon, Marowak, Electrode, Chansey, Wigglytuff, Ditto, Parasect, Raichu, Arbok (Red), Sandslash (Blue) | |
