Walkthrough For Routes 1-46
When you first start, you will be in Wakaba town, there are two options that can be chosen. Choose the top one, which means 'New Game'. Now you will be displayed with some numbers, the numbers here are to set the time of the day. There is a defualt time, which is 10:00 AM, but you may set the time for whatever you'd like it to be. After telling your mom the time of day, she will give you the Pokégear. You will begin by talking to Prof. Oak. He will talk to you about Pokémon, much similar to the lecture you recieved in previous Pokémon versions. You then are able to pick your name. I suggest, unless you can read Japanese, that you pick the second name, which will either be silver or gold, silver if you are playing the silver version of the game, gold if you are playing the gold version of the game. You begin playing now. You are in your bedroom. You can see the popular PC, radio, and map. When you go downstairs, your mom will ask you what day it is. This doesn't matter to you now. Leave your house, heading left, to Prof. Utsugi's lab to pick one of three Pokémon. Fire is your best bet for your first gym battle against the bird trainers, but you may choose whomever you want.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who should you choose?
Chicorita- a grass type Pokémon, and a follow-up to Bulbasaur. Many people think it's best to choose him, because in previous Pokémon games, Bulbasaur was chosen because he was the best beginner Pokémon to start out with. In this game, he is not. The first gym, for instance, uses bird types, which happen to be strong against grass types. Only choose Chicorita if you are an expert player.
Waninoko- The water type Pokémon, and probablly the most popular type out of all three beginning Pokémon. He looks somewhat like an alligator, and he is very strong. I chose him, considering since Bulbasaur and Charmander were either very bad, or very good, and not wanting to take that chance this time, I chose him. I don't think there are any gyms that have an advantage over his type in the game, but I could be wrong.
Hinorashi- The fire type Pokémon, and probablly the best bet. Hinoarshi will come in extreme handy in the first gym, and many others. He also evolves into a powerful Pokémon, but like I said before, you can't really go wrong with either one.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
After choosing your Pokémon carefully, you must walk left, and leave town. Here you will fight all different varieties of Pokémon, depending what time of day it is, or what day it is, or what version you are playing. You can let the old man show you around town, but that won't help you much. You are to go north, until you reach a house. Inside, Prof. Oak will give you your Pokédex, which is a big improvement over the one in previous versions. you Pokémon will be healed, and you have to go outside.
Once outside, you will recieve a phone call from Prof. Utsugi informing you that one of his Pokémon have been stolen.
Right as you arrive at the beggining of the first town, your rival will appear, and he will challenge you to a Pokémon match.
After defeating him and returning to Prof. Utsigi lab, you will be given 5 Monster Balls from Prof. Utgi's aid. You might want to go to monster ball in your backback, and write it down so you don't forget it.
After doing this, go up to the northern part of the city. You can now go to the gym.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym leader: Hayato
| For: Wind Badge
| Pidgey- If you picked Hinoarashi, use him, but if you chose someone else, use a Rattatta or if you picked Waninoko, try using him.
| Pidgeotto- Harder than Pidgey, but still a piece of cake. If your Rattatta is almost or fainted, use an O-tachi.
-------------------------------------------------
I advise you, be leveled up with at least 2 backup Pokémon in case your first one or two faints.
There, that was easy, you achieved your first badge, and by now, you should at least have your starting Pokémon evolved.
After exiting the gym, you receive a phone call from Prof. Oak. He tells you to pick up something important at the Pokémon center. When you get to the Pokémon center, you will see one of Prof. Oak and Utsugi's aids. He will give you a Pokémon egg. The egg will hatch at about 1,000 steps.
Now, go north, and you will come upon a bellsprout shrine. Enter, and make your way to the top. You will receive HM05, Flash.
Now go north of the town. Go east, then south, you will see many cave entrances. In one of the caves, you have to solve a puzzle. Completing the puzzle will show you a Kabuto. You are dropped to the next floor, and you will find yourself in another cave you could enter before. However, this time, the people are gone, and a Pokémon with many forms will appear. His name is Annon. He will make an excellent addition as a ghost Pokémon on your team. He will have many forms, but is still the same Pokémon reguardless and is still Pokémon #201.
After exiting the cave, go south, and then east. You will come up to another route changing house. After exiting the house, go south, there, you will fight many Pokémon trainers. A guy there will ask you for $500. Pay him, and go in the cave. There are some Pokémon trainers. You will fight Zubats, Geodudes, Onix, and Sandshrew here.
After exiting the cave, go west, and you will end up in the second town. Go talk to the guy in the northern part of the town, and he will remove the Team Rocket member that once blocked your path before. Go in, and defeat the few rocket trainers there to free the Slowpokes.
You can now go to the gym. Fight the gym trainers here, and then move onto the gym leader. She will use bug-type Pokémon.
-------------------------------------------------
| Gym Leader:
| For: Insect Badge
| Metapod- An extremely easy Pokémon to beat. you may want to use one of your weaker Pokémon like Annon for Metapod to gain some expirence.
| Kakuna- Once again, an extremely easy Pokémon. You should also work on one of your weaker Pokémon while fighting Kakuna.
| Scyther- Now that you defeated the easy Pokémon, it is time to fight a harder one. Use a fire type Pokémon if you have one.
-------------------------------------------------
You now have to go west, but make sure you have totally healed Pokémon, because you will fight your rival.
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 Pokémon. 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 Pokémon like Rattatta or Raticate.
| Mirutanku- Mirutanku has a strange attack that makes your Pokémon get woozy. Your Pokémon 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 Pokémon
-------------------------------------------------
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. Talking to the woman in the house who has the butterfree will give you 'squirtle water'. Now you can fight the tree Pokémon, Usokki, that you could only move slightly before. Catch this Pokémon, 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 around here, he will be slightly overweight, will give you TM08, which will let you break the cracked rocks that lurk around the game. Since we're talking about items, why not reveal the location of the Item Finder? Go to the house that is left of the Pokémon Center, and answer yes to the question he asks you. He will then award you with the Item Finder.
The gym here in this town will specialize in ghost Pokémon. Your Pokémon 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:
| For: Phantom Badge
| Gastly- Her easiest Pokémon 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 Pokémon.
| 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 Pokémon 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 Pokémon at the Pokémon center now, and take out a Pokémon 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 Pokémon. 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:
| For: Shock Badge
| Primeape- A bird Pokémon 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 Pokémon
