*6. WALKTHROUGH- JOHTO REGION*
******************************
Here is the walkthrough for the Johto Region. For the Kanto Region, look in the
next section. Each city has a paragraph or 2 and if the city has a gym, theyll
have a special gym paragraph. This is a step by step walkthrough. So if you
have to backtrack to certain cities, there will be a new paragraph after the
previous task. Good luck!
***NEW BARK TOWN***
1. After choosing your character and setting up the time, head Professor Elms
home outside, in the largest building in town.
2. Inside, talk to him and choose your Pokemon.
CHOICE!!!
You can choose either Cyndaquil, Chikorita or Totodile.
CYNDAQUIL
If you are a beginner, choose him, since he is considerably strong against the
Violet, Azalea and Olivine Gym leaders. He can also beat many Pokemon at the
start, but once youre in the Kanto Region, hell be weak against a few
leaders.
CHIKORITA
If you are an expert player, youll want this guy, since he is the toughest to
train. The first 4 gyms are strong against him, but at a high level, Chikorita
is strong.
TOTODILE
He is probably the intermediate choice. He is well rounded and has no real
weakness against a good majority of the Johto and Kanto gyms. He has the most
powerful attack and can easily rack up experience sine he is so powerful. When
he evolves, hell be a must!
If youre out to build a powerful team, go with Cyndaquil, since he is a VERY
powerful fire type. You can get a Lapras or Blastoise in place of Totodile and
a Victreebell in place of Chkiorita.
END CHOICE!!!

just north of the next town. Time to go!
