Pokemon - http://maxpages.com/pikadudearea51/Gold_and_Silver

Start by turning on the game. You will see 2 sentences. "New Game" and "Options".
Click on new game and an intro to welcome you to the world of Pokemon will begin. You will then be asked to "Set
The Time". Select the hour (left picture), then "Confirm" it. Select the minute, then also "Confirm"
it.

Throughout the game, the set-up process especially, you will often be asked to confirm your selection with a screen
like the one above (on the right). Remember, the Japanese word on top means "Yes" and the one at the
bottom means "No".

To begin the game, choose your name. The menu shows "New Name" with which
you must input your choice of name as shown on the right, or choose from any of the given names - "Silver",
"Kamon", "Tooru" or "Masao". Note, however, that in the Gold Version, the names are
different - they are "Gold", "Hiroki", "Tetsuo" and "Takashi".

You are at home and the first thing you do is log onto your computer.

You go downstairs and your mother asks you what day it is. You bid
her a fond farewell, tell her you'll take good card of yourself and you set off on your journey.

Your Pokemon adventure begins in your very own Wakaba Town.

And before you set off, these are what you should know about the game's
menu system. "Back-Pack" - This is where your items will be stored
for easy access.

"PokeGear" - Check on time or make calls (the screen below shows "call
home")

"Your Data" - Check your ID number, your available money, logged time and
gym leaders and badges.

"Report" - Your status and to save your game.

"Options" - To adjust message speed, etc. "Exit" - To exit menu
system.

Part Two

Choose Your Starting Pokemon

Choose your starting Pokemon from
Professor Utsugii. There's Hinoarashi, Waninoko and Chicolita. Then when you're all set, confirm your choice. Prof.
Utsugi will now explain to you that the machine in this lab is connected to the Pokemon Centre healing machine.
You walk out and his assistant gives you a healing potion. What you must do now is go to Prof. Oak and bring back
the egg that was discovered to Prof. Utsugi for research.

You now have Pokemon
on your menu system.

You also have Porfessor Oak's phone number in your memory dial.

The statistics of your Pokemon are categorised in 3 different pages.

Let The Battle Begin

You are now ready to explore the town. There will be random battles
to encounter and you can either choose fight or capture or run. In the battle screen below, the top bar you have
indicates your HP while the bottom bar indicates your experience. Once the experience bar is full, your level increases.

To safeguard your Pokemon from fainting, you can equip it with "Mochimono",
a potion. To do so, go to your Pokedex, select which Pokemon you'd like to have equipped and simply do so. Only
then will your Pokemon automatically regain HP during a battle. Remember, you will still not be able to catch any
Pokemon until you get your first 5 Pokeballs from Prof. Utsugi's assistant.

Explore

There are many places to explore and things to do now.

Head left through "ROUTE 29" to "YOSHINO CITY OF WAKABA TOWN" and have your Pokemon healed.
Should you talk to the old man standing near the Pokemon Centre, he will give you a short tour and a "TOWN
MAP".

Next, head north through "ROUTE 30" to "KIKYOU TOWN" where Prof. Oak is. The first PokeGym
is also here. Prof. Oak gives you the egg and a Pokedex and then he leaves for Kogane City's radio tower. You stay
the night, heal your Pokemon and go on your way. As you step out of Prof. Oak's lab, your phone rings. It's Prof.
Utsugi asking you to hurry back because something terrible has happened.

Back At Lab

You give Prof. Utsugi the egg that Prof. Oak has handed to you. As
you head on out, Prof. Utsugi's assistant gives you some instructions and hands over 5 Pokeballs which you keep
in your backpack.

With Prof. Utsugi's assistant's instructions, you go in search for
the girl you just fought on your way back here. Apparently, she has stolen a Pokemon from the Utsugi Research Lab.

A Lesson

As you move west, you will meet a boy who will teach you how to catch

Pokemon.

Now that you know how to do so, when you meet a Pokemon that you want, you can get

your Pokeball from your backpack and use it for capture. There is an new feature in Pokemon Gold and Silver which

wasn't present in the other Pokemon games. Notice the Pokeball icon next to the Pokemon's name (in the picture

on the right)? This indicates that you have already got this Pokemon in your Pokedex.

Moving On

Now head north and gain more experience points and money by battling the many Pokemon Trainers along the way.

You'll even exchange telephone numbers with a boy called Gorou, a Rattata

fan.

Your next stop, "KURAYAMI-MOUNTAIN CAVE" on "ROUTE 31". You can't go

through it yet as it's pitch dark. So wait till you get HM 5 (Flash).

Next Stop

"KIKYOU GYM" where you will meet "HAYATO" who only has Pidgey and

Pidgeotto. Beat Hayato and get a "WING BADGE".
