Boss Tactics
Here are your best bets for beating the Pokemon Gym Leaders:
Brock: Use water or grass Pokemon against this rock trainer.
Misty: Use grass pokemon or electric to defeat this gym leader.
Leiutenant Surge: use a rock or ground pokemon and he's toast.
Erika: Use fire pokemon or flight against this plant lover and shatter
her dreams of fighting you again.
Sabrina: Use bug or ghost against this psychomaniac and she is a
goner.
Koga: This poison pokemon lover will be deafeted easily by using
psy pokemon.
Blaine: This fire trainer will use fire pokemon against you so you can
use water or ice.
Final boss: Giovanni, the team rocket leader, is the final gym leader
- use water, ice, plant and he's out of there (and talk to him again
and he says something to you).
In the Indigo Plateu you find 5 pokemon masters. Use this pokemon lineup
for a better chance of success:
1.Plant
2.Water, Plant, Flight, Ice
3.Psy
4.Ice or Dragon
5.Your choice
Good Luck!
Celadon City Slot Tip
All of the slot machines have different odds, which change every time. Play
each machine 4 times, and if it hits 2 or more, then stick with that one,
because it's probably hot.
If the slow machine forces you really close to a 777 or Bar Bar Bar it will
probably give you one or the other soon.

Cheap Potions
When you reach Celadon City, go to the top (6th) floor of the Poke Mart
and press A next to the machines and chose Lemonade. Lemonade
replenishes 80 HP on a Pokemon, and it only costs 350 -- wich is a lot
less than Hyper Potion.
Clone Pokemon
Note: This trick requires another Game Boy and Pokemon game.
Trade the Pokemon to be cloned, and have the other player get a
Pokemon that he or she does not care about. Trade them, and make sure
the player receiving the bad Pokemon can see the other player's screen.
When the Game Boy that receives the good Pokemon's displays
"Waiting", get ready to shut the other Game Boy off. When the "Waiting"
message disappears, turn off the Game Boy that is receiving the bad
Pokemon. When the "Trade completed" message appears, turn off the
remaining Game Boy. Both games will have the same good Pokemon
when they are turned back on.
Note: Do not attempt this trick with any saved games you wish to
keep, as it can corrupt those files if done incorrectly.
Cut Down Grassy Areas
Once you get the HM "cut", your pokemon can cut down grassy areas.
Use "cut" and it will cut a two by two area. Wild Pokemon will not attack
you in the area you cut.
Easy Level Gain
To easily gain experience, simply switch the Pokémon you want to train
with the top Pokémon on your list. When you go into battle the Pokémon
will pop out. You can then switch to another Pokémon. Once you win the
battle the beginning Pokémon and the fighting Pokémon will both gain
experience points.
Get Bulbasaur
To get Bulbasaur beat misty nugget bridge and get to bill`s house. Defeat
the rocket and get Dig. Go back to the house and she will give you
Bulbasaur!
Get Amnesia Psyduck
Have you ever wondered how you can get the elusive Amnesia technique?
Well, it's hidden deep in Pokemon Stadium for the Nintendo 64.
Unlocking it will take a while, but it's definitely worth it. You have to
register ALL 151 Pokemon in the Hall of Fame. Whenever you beat a
tournament (or Gym Leader Castle), your six Pokemon are entered into
the Hall of Fame. It doesn't matter whether you use rental Pokemon or
your own, but you can't have any gaps. Once you've filled it all up, you are
awarded a free Psyduck bonus Pokemon that knows the Amnesia
technique. You can now upload it to your Game Boy pak and use it in
your quest.
Get Charmander
Go to Cerulean city and beat the five trainers on the bridge going north,
then go in to the first square walk away and then talk to the guy in it, he
will give you Charmander.
Get Mewtwo
You can only get Mewtwo after you have beaten the game. First go to
Cerulean City and go past the five trainers. Take a left and you are in a
grassy area. Then continue down the water (you need Surf to get in the
water) until you see land. Get on that land and enter the dungeon (if you
haven't finished the game, a guy will be blocking the entrance). Work
yourself through the dungeon until you're on the bottom floor. You will see
Mewtwo. Use your Master Ball to catch it.
Get Raichu
To get Raichu, trade the Pikachu you started with to a Red/Blue version
after It gets to be about Lv. 50-60. Then use a Thunderstone on the
Pikachu you traded. After it evolves, trade it back to Pokemon Yellow.
Now you will have Raichu. Be careful, though. Pikachu will no longer
follow you around if you do this. You may be much better off just trading a
Pikachu caught in Red/Blue and evolving that one.
Get Squirtle
To get Squirtle first you must beat Lt. Surge. Then go talk to officer jenny
in the middle of the city and she will give you Squirtle.
Get Surfing Pikachu
Did you ever notice the small house at the northern beach of Route 19 that
wasn't in Pokémon Blue and Red? This hut is home to the infamous
"Surfing Pikachu" mini-game. Here's the deal: if your Pikachu knows Surf,
you can play the mini-game Pikachu's Beach right here. The only problem
is that Pikachu can't learn Surf... Well, at least not in Pokémon Yellow.
Here's how you get Surfing Pikachu (outside of winning a Nintendo
Pokemon contest):
Surfing Pikachu is hidden in Pokémon Stadium for the Nintendo 64. To
teach your Pikachu Surf (a technique it can normally not learn), you need
to first unlock the R-2 (Round 2) mode. Then do the following:
Enter the R-2 Prime Cup's Master Ball division (you have to beat
the first three divisions first).
Assemble a team that contains a Pikachu that does not yet know
Surf. You HAVE to use a Pikachu from your Game Boy game.
You cannot unlock Surfing Pikachu using a Rental Pokémon.
Do not register your team! Pick it directly from your Game Boy
cartridge.
You now have to beat the Prime Cup's Master Ball division using a
three-Pokémon team that always contains Pikachu. Pikachu has to
be in every one of the eight battles.
You are not allowed to use any continues. If you do, you won't get
Surfing Pikachu.
Once you have fulfilled all the above conditions, you are shown an award
screen with Pikachu standing on a surfboard. From here on, Pikachu can
use the Surf technique both in battle and during gameplay (Game Boy
versions only). In Pokémon Yellow, you can now also access the hidden
Surfing Pikachu mini-game. Simply go to the small hut on the northern
beach of Route 19 and talk to the guy inside.
There is also a GameShark code that lets you access Surfing Pikachu, but
we advise against using it, since it can mess up your Pokédex and save
data. It's not worth the trouble.
Get the Mimic TM
Buy a Pokedoll in Celadon Mart, then FLY to Saffron and talk to the
Copycat. She will give you the Mimic TM.
How to get two HMs in Fuchsia City
If you are stumped on where to get the "Surf" HM, Here's what you do.
It's in Area 3 of the Safari Zone. You will have to get there fast as well. (I
used a bike, I suggest you use it if you have it.) If you get into the secret
hideaway in area 3, the man will give you the "Surf" HM. The gold teeth
item is also in Area 3. Give the gold teeth to the owner of the Safari zone
and he will give you the "Strength" HM. Use that to move the boulder and
claim the item in the owners house.
Only Way to Get Mew
We've seen so many fake Mew codes pop up on the web (and we get
about 20 new fake Mew code submissions A DAY) that we've decided to
add this following disclaimer to our codes section:
According to Nintendo, Mew cannot be found or caught in Pokemon
Yellow, Red, or Blue. Outside of a GameShark code (which may mess up
your Pokedex and render the game incompatible with Pokemon Stadium),
the #151st Pokemon remains a cool litte extra that is only handed out by
Nintendo on special occasions, such as Mall Tours or Pokemon
events.
However, all those who want to catch a glimpse of the rare Pokemon can
select Mew as a rental Pokemon in Pokemon Stadium for Nintendo 64
(but you cannot upload it to your Game Boy game). Note that Mew is just
that -- a bonus Pokemon (albeit a very cool one that can learn all TMs) --
and not technically required to complete your Pokedex.
Secret Coins
At the Game Corner there are secret coins lying around. You can get these
coins by walking around and pressing the A button. |
