HM01 - Cut
After you leave the previous city you'll enter a forest. You'll see a man standing near a cut-able bush. Talk to him and he'll tell you that his boss's Farfetch'd got away.
After him you will see the Farfetch'd by itself. Chase it around until it reaches the man by the cut-able bush. Talk to the new man and he will give you Cut.
Now Cut that cut-able bush to get passed the only one Blocking your path. A new feature in Gold/Silver is that you can just go up to the bush, press A, and it will get cut down if you have a Pokémon with Cut in your lineup. The same goes for Boulders, and that Tree that will come up later.
TM02 - Headbutt
Inside the Ilex (Ubame) Forest Maze is a guy who will give you TM02, Headbutt. Headbutt lets you shake the little trees that are everywhere in the game, sometimes revealing sleeping Pokémon.
I found an Exeggcute and #190 Aipom, that little monkey with a hand-like appendage on the end of its tail. Beedrill was also found in Silver, Butterfree in Gold. Heracross is also up in the trees, but is very rare.
TM12 - Sweet Scent
After cutting the bush that is right before the shrine dedicated to the Forest's protector (aka Celebi), you'll wind through the Forest path until you come to a connecting gate. Inside is a girl who will give you TM12, Sweet Scent. It will attract Pokémon to you outside of battle.
Once you exit this place, you'll come to Route 34. Amongst the trainers is a Daycare/Breeding Center.
Location
Just below Goldenrod (Kogane) City is a house with an old man and woman inside. Talk to the man and he will take one of your Pokémon to level up and talk to the woman and she will do the same. It will cost 100 bucks to take them out, and 100 bucks per level up.
Breeding Instructions
To breed Pokémon you must give the old man a Male Pokémon and give the old woman a Female Pokémon (or vice-versa) that have the same little icon or sprite. Or they must be compatible at breeding. Check our Pokédex for breeding compatibility.
Then exit the building and go walk around for a little while. Come back when you see the man standing outside with your two Pokémon. Talk to him and answer yes, he will give you an Egg.
If you put in Pokémon of different #'s, for example Pidgey and Hoothoot, the resulting egg will be the same species as the female Pokémon and with an Attack that the Male had. Just think of the strange combinations...
Special Pre-Evolution Pokémon
Put In a Male and Female Jigglypuff...
...And get Igglybuff when you hatch the egg!
Note: Jigglypuff can be found outside in the grassy areas of Mt. Moon but is very rare.
Put In a Male and Female Clefairy...
...And get Cleffa when you hatch the egg!
Note: Clefairy can be found inside of Mt. Moon but is very rare.
Put in a Male and Female Pikachu...
...And get Pichu when you hatch the egg!
Note: Pikachu can be found in the wild grass right above Viridian City.
Put in a Male and Female Magmar...
...And get Magby when you hatch the egg!
Note: Magmar can be found inside the tower in Ecruteak (Enjyu) City where you fight your Rival.
Put in a Male and Female Electabuzz...
...And get Elekid when you hatch the egg!
Note: Electabuzz can be found in the wild grass outside the Power Plant. Thanks to kapoeraskool for this information.
Put in a Female Jynx and another Pokémon with the same sprite as Jynx...
...And get Smoochum when you hatch the egg!
Note: Jynx can be found in the Ice Path. I bred a Jynx and my Kadabra together to get this Smoochum. I've heard that Electabuzz works, I don't know about Magmar though.
Goldenrod (Kogane) City Gym - Plain Badge
Goldenrod (Kogane) City is pretty big. The local PokéMart is like the Celadon Department Store. There's plenty to due, but let's get down to business. It's the Gym Leader's badge you want, isn't it?
All the trainers use Normal Pokémon in the Goldenrod (Kogane) City Gym. Right before Whitney there is a trainer who likes to use Jigglypuff, 3 to be exact. So you might want to stop at the PokéCenter to wake up any Pokémon before taking on Whitney.
Whitney can be challenging. If you caught a Geodude or Onix earlier, now is the time it would come in handy.
Whitney won't give you the Plain Badge at first because she will start crying. Talk to the trainer below her then talk to Whitney again. She'll stop crying and give you the Plain Badge. It will let your Pokémon use Strength outside of battle and it boosts your Pokémon's Speed. She'll also give you TM45, Attract.

Radio Tower
In the radio station at Goldenrod, there is someone at the far end of the counter. She has a five question quiz for you. Answer yes, yes, no, yes, no. You'll get a Radio Card for your PokéGear.
Right to the left of the girl who gave you the quiz is someone who will check to see if your ID is the same as the Lucky Radio Station's. If it is you can win prizes, like a Masterball.
Coin Case / Free Bike
The Game Corner in Goldenrod (Kogane) City requires the coin case like in the previous versions. In Goldenrod are two buildings that have an underground tunnel that connect to each other. There are a few trainers there, but, if you find a PokéBall down there, it'll contain the coin case. Now you can take your case and go gambling.
Also, there's a bike shop in Goldenrod, just talk to the guy and he'll give you a free bike.
Pokémon Salon
Also in the Underground Path is a Pokémon Salon. Depending on the day, you can groom your Pokémon which will make it happy.
TM 21 or TM 27
In the Goldenrod City Department Store a lady on the 5th floor will give you a TM on Sundays depending on how your Pokémon like you. If they like you she'll give you TM 27, Return. It'll do more damage the more your Pokémon like you. However, if they don't she'll give you TM 21, Frustration. It'll do more damage the more your Pokémon dislike you.
TM 04 - Rollout
Before the National Park (Route 35), there is a path through the grass you can take to find TM 04, Rollout.
National Park
On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, the National Park holds a Bug Catching Tournament. To enter you have to talk with one of the guys standing by the doors of either entrance (North of Goldenrod is the first you come to). You can only take one Pokémon with you to battle the wild Bug Pokémon, the rest will be held for you until the contest is over. The contest is free, and you'll get 20 Park Balls to capture the Pokémon. However, if you press Start at anytime, the round will end once you go back to playing.
Sunkern, Caterpie, Metapod, Butterfree, Weedle, Kakuna, Beedrill, Venonat, Pinsir, and Scyther are the Pokémon that I've seen in there. What's weird is that you can find level 17 Caterpie and Weedle.
Whenever you catch more than one Pokémon in this contest, you'll be asked whether you want to switch it with the first one you caught. If not, your Pokédex will still record that you caught that Pokémon, you just won't get to keep it. You only get to keep one Pokémon from the contest, so all others will mysteriously disappear.
To win the tournament you need to capture a high level Pokémon like Scyther since he is worth a lot of points. The 1st place winner gets the Sun Stone.
Quick Claw
Talk to the girl on the bench inside of the National Park and she'll give you Quick Claw. Quick Claw will usually let the Pokémon carrying it, attack first in battle.
Route 26 - Sudowoodo the Wiggling Tree
After the third Gym there was a house right outside the gym. Inside the girl in red will give you a SquirtBottle to sprinkle on the tree. Sudowoodo doesn't like water, so it'll wake up and fight you. Remember there's only one, so be ready to catch it.
Next head directly to the right and talk to the fat guy that you come in contact with. He'll give you TM08 which is called Rock Smash. This move will allow you to break certain rocks later in the game so don't lose it.
Arthur of Thursday
On Thursdays in this area, right above where the fat guy is, Arthur will show up. He'll give you Hard Stone, which will increase that strength of Rock attacks.
Deliver the Spearow - TM 50
After clearing out Sudowoodo this task will be simple. There's a guy wanting to deliver a Spearow with Mail attached to a guy on Route 31. The guy with the Spearow is in the Route Change gate right after Goldenrod City.
Bill - Time Capsule
After Sudowoodo you will reach Ecruteak (Enjyu) City. You'll probably want to stop at the local PokéCenter to heal your Pokémon. When you do you'll meet Bill. He'll tell you he just finished fixing his Time Capsule. The Time Capsule will let you transfer Pokémon from older games, (Red, Blue, and Yellow) and transfer them to Gold or Silver. He tells you that you can't have any new moves from Gold and Silver or Pokémon when trying to use the machine. Then he'll leave and go back to Goldenrod City where he'll give you an Eevee if you talk to him again.
After this, you can take on the local gym leader, Morty.
It would have been handy to have a Kadabra by now.
Ecruteak (Enjyu) City Gym - Fog Badge (#4)
There is a ghost floor surface which continually has you falling through, but to get to the other side, you must walk directly forward in front of a gym trainer, then walk directly left/right, but before reaching the edge, walk directly up in front of another trainer.
The Gym Leader uses all Ghost Pokémon so a Psychic like Kadabra or Drowzee will come in handy here.
Morty will give you the Fog Badge for winning. All Pokémon up to level 50 will obey you now and you'll be able to use Surf outside of battle. He will also give you TM 30, Shadow Ball.

HM03 - Surf
Two more things to do here. Inside the town there are five Kimono Girls dancing on the stage. Each Kimono Girl has an Eevee evolution (two new ones, a Psychic one, and a Dark one). If you defeat all five and talk to the man with the hat, he will give you HM03, Surf.
The House
Dancing Kimono Girls
HM03 - Surf
Itemfinder
Inside one of the houses, this guy will give you an Itemfinder.
Burned Tower - Rival / Legendary Beasts
Burned Tower Once you enter the Burned Tower your Rival will fight you. If you have that Kadabra, now is the time to use it.
Once your Rival is defeated and leaves, it'll be time to explore the rest of the tower. I was playing at night, so I fought some Rattata, the occasional Gastly, Koffing, and Magmar!
If you taught TM08 to one of your Pokémon, now it is time to use it. (Remember TM08 is given to you by the fat man that was looking at Sudowoodo - the wiggling tree.)
Fight the trainer and you can fall down the hole in the middle. Go up to the stone statues and they will awaken, then scatter. These are the Three Legendary Beasts, Raikou (electric type), Entei (fire type), and Suicune (water type). You may run into them later on in the game (in the wild), so be prepared.
Next head west to Route 38.

TM 20 - Endure
Inside the Burned Tower you can find TM 20 by breaking the rock on the right side. Then you have fall in the hole in the upper right hand corner. Then move a rock with strength and TM 20, Endure, is yours.
Sick Miltank
Right in the corner of Route 38 and 39 is a Miltank farm. Unfortunately their prize Miltank will not produce milk. If you give it enough Berries it'll get better. There is a plant that gives Berries near the beginning of Route 38. If you talk to the owners after that they'll give you TM13.
Pikachu Madness!
Not much else on Route 39, except a couple trainers with Pikachu.
Gym Leader is Missing
If you check out the local Gym your Rival will tell you that the gym is empty.
HM04 - Strength
Head to the house next to the PokéCenter. Talk to the Sailor on the right and he'll give you HM04.
Good Rod
Right above the PokéCenter is a house with a Fishing Guru inside. Talk to him and answer yes to his question and you'll get a Good Rod.
Monica
On Mondays look for Monica in Olivine City. Talk to her and she'll give you Sharp Beak. When attached to a Pokémon it'll raise the power of Flying Attacks.
Jasmine Needs Medicine
Next head to the Lighthouse that is southeast in the town. Scale to the top battling trainers and you'll find Jasmine. She'll ask that you get some medicine for her sick Pokémon from a pharmacy in Cianwood.
Well, not much else to do, so let's surf to Cianwood City.
Where is Cianwood?
Cianwood (Taban) City can be reached by surfing from Olivine (Asagi) City. You'll encounter a lot of Tentacool and Tentacruel on the way. Not to mention a few trainers.
Cianwood (Taban) City Gym - Storm Badge (#5)
Heal your Pokémon at the local Center then head off to fight the Gym Leader. To get passed the stones blocking your way, you must press the stones on the ends up using Strength. Then Press the middle stone to the left.
Again, Kadabra comes in handy.
Chuck will give you the Storm Badge for winning. Now Pokémon up to level 70 will obey you and you can use Fly outside of battle. He will also give you TM 01, Dynamicpunch. It will confuse the opponent if it hits.
Chuck

Primeape 27 861

HM02 - Fly
After beating Chuck, talk to the lady outside the gym to get HM02.
#213 Shuckle
There's a guy that will give you a Shuckle on Cianwood if you only bring 5 Pokémon with you.
You can also catch wild Shuckle by breaking the rocks on Cianwood. By breaking the rocks there's always a chance a wild Pokémon will fight you.
Photo Studio
There's a man in a house above the Gym that'll take a picture of one of your Pokémon and then print it out on your Game Boy Printer.
Medicine
Stop by this house to get the medicine Jasmine needs for her sick Pokémon before flying back to Olivine.
Medicine
After receiving the medicine from the guy in sunglasses on Cianwood, go back to Jasmine at the top of the tower, give her the medicine, and she will go back to her gym.
Olivine (Asagi) City Gym - Mineral Badge (#6)
Jasmine's two Magnemites shouldn't give you that much trouble, especially if you grabbed a Geodude earlier in the game.
The new steel type Pokémon, Steelix, is five levels higher, but you should still be able to take it out. A Fire Pokémon can easily take all 3 of her Pokémon.
Once you beat Jasmine, the Mineral Badge is yours. It raises your Pokémon's Defense, and she also gives you TM 23, Iron Tail.
Jasmine

Sunny of Sunday
Next head back to Ecruteak (Enjyu) City, the one with the Ghost gym leader.
Before entering the city, Sunny will be walking amongst 3 Berry Plants on the right side of Route 37 on Sunday. Talk to Sunny and he will give you Magnet which increases the power of Electric attacks.
Then exit east from the city using the Route Gate and you'll come across Mt. Mortar on Route 42.
Tyrogue
Deep inside Mt. Mortar is a trainer that will give you Tyrogue if you beat him. Make sure you only bring 5 Pokémon with you or he will not give it to you. You also need Waterfall to be able to get to him.
Karate King
Pokémon Level Exp.
Hitmonlee 34 1012
Hitmonchan 34 1020
Prizes: $816, Tyrogue
You can easily get passed the mountain if you have trouble by surfing in the water outside the Mountain.
Dragon Scale
Deep inside Mt. Mortar there is a item ball containing Dragon Scale. You should be able to get it by following the way to get to Tyrogue. It's at the very top of the map.
TM40 - Defense Curl
Also inside near where the Dragon Scale is, you'll find TM 40, Defense Curl... Not really worth your time if you ask me.
Apricorns
There are a group of three plants that give you Apricorns right outside the middle entrance of Mt. Mortar. You need a Pokemon with Cut with you to get to them. The one on the left gives you a Pink Apricorn, the middle a Green Apricorn, and the right a Yellow Apricorn.
Now head East, and you'll come right to Mahogany Town.
TM 10 - Hidden Power
There's a winding path off to the left of the lake with a lot of bushes that require Cut to get passed. There's a hut at the very top and for your trouble the man inside will give you TM 10, Hidden Power.
Wesley of Wednesday
Also up near the house where you get TM 10 will be Wesley on Wednesday. Talk to him to get Blackbelt.
Red Gyarados
The Mahogany (Choju) Town Gym is being blocked by a Team Rocket member so you'll have to find something else to do first.
Head north battling trainers and new Pokémon until you reach a lake with a level 30 Red Gyarados in it. Surf out to the middle and fight it. There's only one, so you better catch it!
After capturing/defeating it, you'll get a Red Scale. You can trade this scale for an Exp.Share from Mr.Pokémon.
Lance
After catching the Red Gyarados you'll see Lance standing by a sign. Talk to him and he will tell you he needs help, Mahogany Town has a secret Rocket Hideout that is broadcasting strange radio signals making the Magikarp in the lake evolve into Gyarados. Answer yes and he'll fly off. Head back to Mahogany Town.
TM 36 - Sludge Bomb
On your way back you can go through a gate house with a Red roof. Watch out! There's Rockets inside. They'll steal your money, so hop over the ledges to get back.
However, later when you get rid of Team Rocket, come back to get TM 36 from the guy inside.
Mahogany (Choju) Town "Store"
If you head to the middle of the town where a guy is selling things, you'll find Lance inside. He'll show you the secret door to Team Rocket's Hideout.
Make sure your Pokémon are strong, a lot of Team Rocket members will fight you in here.
Team Rocket Hideout - Level 1
This map looks peaceful, right? WRONG. Every time you pass one of the Statues, 2 Rocket Grunts will come and fight you. They say that there's a camera in the Statues, and the only way to turn them off is to hit the switch.
The switch is on that lone computer which you can get to after defeating the Scientist in the center.
Team Rocket Hideout - Level 2
Lance will heal your Pokémon when you talk to him on the 2nd level. He'll go ahead of you. Beat the 2 rocket members and go down the stairs.
Team Rocket Hideout - Level 3
Here Lance will talk to you again. He says that to unlock the doors on this level you need to get 2 passwords from the Rocket members. The two members that have the passwords are on this level. The first one is the girl Rocket, facing the computer. Talk to her after you battle her and she'll give you her password. The other is the Rocket near the 2 Pokéballs. After battling him talk to him and he'll give you his password. Follow the stairs until you get to the locked door. Your Rival will come to talk to you but he won't battle.
Unlock the door and fight the Rocket Executive. After he leaves, talk to the Murkrow and it'll give you the final password, "Hail Giovanni." Then head back to the 2nd Floor and unlock the 2nd locked door.
Deactivate the Radio Signal
After unlocking the door, 2 Rocket Executives will come and gang up on you. Luckily Lance comes and battles one of them, while you battle the other. After that is over, Lance tells you that the radio signal needs to be stopped. Since there is no switch, you must battle the Electrode and make them faint.
After defeating the Electrode, Lance will thank you and give you HM06, Whirlpool. Whirlpool lets you get passed rough waters.
