Red And Blue - Pokemon - http://maxpages.com/mastermike/Red_And

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
Pokémon. There are Bulbasaur, a plant-type Pokémon; Charmander, a fire-type
Pokémon; and Squirtle, and 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 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, acting as a pokemon center without the computer.

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 your
Pokemon.

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.

About the old man, if you go left from him, you will see a tree. Go around
the other side and you will get a POTION.

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
---------------
First of all, right when you get in, there is a man next to a tree. Go
above the man, look at the tree, and press A for an Antidote. (JAMS4000)

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 :-) It will
learn awesome attacks later on as well. I personally suggest NOT turning
it into a Raichu to preserve it originality, but... if you really want to
do so, learn THUNDER first.

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.

Nathan (nathanl@jps.net) gave me a good tip. Work Bulbasaur to level 13
or so until he learns VINE WHIP. This attack should kill each of Brock's
pokemon in one hit.

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" Pokémon 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 Pokémon 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 and this place only).

By the way, JAMS4000 (and me) strongly suggest getting a geodude here
as well. It will help immensely in the battle again Lt. Surge, and it will
eventually add three pokemon to your pokedex.

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 Pokémon), along with a HP-UP that increases a Pokémon's HEALTH
permanently. Keep on going, past a Lass with a pair of Lv. 11 plant
Pokémon (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 and 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 Pokémon Laboratory on Cinnabar
Island.

The trick for the first great ball is when you get out of Mt.Moon and
walk to the right you see land that is surronded by ledges. When you
stand on the steps or the little opening, take 2 step up one
step to the right, then one step to the left and press the A button and
you will find the first great ball. (Jmwwmj@aol.com)

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. Hop along the edges gradually
to the right until you get to a city.

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 rare
candy. It is located in the middle of the yard.

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" Pokémon 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 Pokémon 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.

The person at the underground passage speaks of hidden items. LouDogg187
at AOL has found two items there, A Full Restore and a X special. Keep
your eye out for them!

Route 11
--------

Don't forget to get the exclusive Drowzee here. It is one of the first,
and one of the best psychic Pokémon.

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, equal to 2 times your level.

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. This is quite a good time
to start training a Gyrados though... A third thing is that a boy
will trade a Far'Fetched, a "sword-fighting" bird Pokemon for a Spearow.
This is the only place you can get one... 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, in a trash can
of all places. 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. Don't forget to pick up BODY SLAM, a awesome fighting
move which can cause paralysis.

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 Pokémon. 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 Pokémon. 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 Pokémon. 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 Pokémon 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, Pokémon
Tower. But you can't do much there now. There is, however, a man who will
"rate" and rename your Pokémon.

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 Pokémon 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 (!!). One of the fisherman actually has 5 pokemon though
(gasp) luckily, they are all Magikarps.

Route 8
-------
Near the city, the BLUE players will find Meowths, Sandshrews, and
Vulpixs, while the RED ones will find Gowlithes, Ekans, and Mankeys. After
some collecting, go west through the tunnel to Celadon City. train a while
here, as you are almost half way through the game.

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.

Fire Stone: Vulpix -> Ninetales
Eevee -> Flareon
Growlithe -> Arcanine

Leaf Stone: Weepinbell -> Victreebell
Gloom -> Vilepume
Exeggute -> Exegguter

Water Stone: Staryu -> Starmie
Shelder -> Cloyester
Poliwhirl -> Poliwrath
Eevee -> Vaporean

Thunder Stone: Pikachu (!!!) -> Raichu
Eevee -> Jolteon

Andm although you can't buy it, you can do these with the Moon Stones:

Jigglypuff -> Wigglytuff
Clefairy -> Clefable
Nidorina -> Nidoqueen
Nidorino -> Nidoking

The Gym leader Erika uses plant Pokémon. 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 Pokémon. This useful move does a lot of
damage and gives half of it to your Pokémon 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
give you coins. You can also buy coins, 50 of them for 1000. Some coins are
also hidden.

You can trade coins for Pokémon/TMs next door. A list of Pokémon that
could be bought there:

(First window)
Abra - 180 (RED) / 120 (BLUE)
Clefairy - 500 (RED) / 750 (BLUE)
Nidorino (BLUE) - 1200
Nidorina (RED) - 1200

(Second window)
Scyther (RED) - 5500
Pinser (BLUE) - 2500
Dratini - 2800 (RED) / 4600 (BLUE)
Porygon - 9999 (RED) / 6500 (BLUE)

Talk to the ROCKET by the picture to reveal a secret entrance - the ROCKET
hideout. Go down and fight some ROCKETS. Giovanni, the boss, has the Silph
Scope.

(Hint from Tru Asian:

First of all you have to have Super Game Boy and an auto fire
controller. Second you should have at least 500 coins. Then you need to
go to the slot machine right above the girl who says "I think these
machines have different odds." Then just leave it on for quite awhile
and your coins will rack up. NOTE: It may seem like you are losing some
times but you will end up with a lot of coins. This is how I got
Porygon for 9999 coins.)

I have not confirmed this, but hopefully it will work.

Lavender Town
-------------
After getting it, go back to Pokémon Tower and prepare for a long
journey. Channelers are hanging around possessed by ghost Pokémon. Fighting
Pokémon are useless here, because ghosts are immune to physical attacks.
There are a lot of ghosts around, but they can be identified with
the Silph Scope. Catch a Gastly (unique to this place) and a Cubone here.
There is a floor with healing tiles for you to heal up, so you can build
good experience there. All the Pokémon are areound levels 20 - 25.
Soon, you will fight Cubone's mother, a Lv.30 Marowak. You can't capture
her, but if you win, her soul will be freed. You step up to the last floor,
and realize that TEAM ROCKET is behind this! Beat them, and you can now
go back to Celadon after rescuing Mr. Fuji and getting the Poke Flute
from him.

Celadon City
------------
Go West from Celadon City. On this road, a Snorlax is sleeping, and you
must wake him up. If you have the Poke Flute, you can wake him up and fight
him. Cut down a nearby bush and go up and left. Go through the building and
into the house you find. The girl inside will give you HM 02 (fly). Used in
battle, it is similar to DIG. Used outside, it will bring you to a Poke
center already visited.

Cycling Road
------------
This leads to Fuschia City. This is a cycling road, so you will go down
automatically. There are a few Riders and Cueballs on the way also. The
former usually has nasty Pokémon (Grimer, Koffing, etc.) and the latter
with fighting Pokémon. It is quite a nice ride, if your Pokémon could
survive the poison.

When you see a gate house, a boy inside will trade a Lickitung for
a Slowbro. This is the only place you can get a Slowbro.

Around here, you can begin to catch Dittos. Use a Magikarp against it,
let it transform, then it will be easy to catch. (I'm sorry to have
forgotten the person. Please contact me for credits)

Fuschia City (Soulbadge)
------------
You can see many trainers if you go to the shore, the meadow, or east of
the town. If you go east, and up, you will see a road leading to Lavender
Town. Another Snorlax is on this road, so if you couldn't get the first one
this is your only chance left to catch it. Go north, and you'll see a hut
where the person will give you the Super Rod. Even more north will let
you see that the city is connected to Lavender Town. Then go back to the
city.

Go north to the Safari Zone. You will get many items and unique Pokémon
here. You can fish for Dratinis here, as opposed to the 4600 coins (BLUE) /
2800 (RED) you need to pay for it in Celadon City. Lets see, 4600 coins
equal $ 92000, (unl
