WE START HERE...........
Pallet Town
You start out in Pallet Town, where you will get your first Pokémon
from Prof. Oak. You must first go up to the tall grass.
He will call you and then he'll take you to his lab and you'll have
the choice of three Pokémon, Charmander the fire Pokémon,
Squirtle the water pokémon, or Bulbasaur the grass Pokémon ( which i sugest for begginers)
You pick any one of these Pokémon, Gary will pick the higher element.
Pick Bulbasaur, he seems to be the best and beat the
most trainers, but if you want you can take one of the others. Gary
will challenge you right after youve chosen, hes not that hard to beat, just keep
attacking and he'll go down and he will use his status change attack.... After
that you will have to go North to Viridian City.
  
Road to Viridian City
Along the road the first guy you see will give you a potion (heals 20 hp). Also you
cannot catch Pokémon right now so just defeat the Pidgeys and
Rattatas for exp. points. (GET ALOT DONT DODGE BATTLES!)
If your Pokémon get hurt you can take
them to your house and your mom will heal them (moms touch).
Viridian City
Once you reach Viridian City you should go to the Pokécenter and
heal your Pokémon. Go to the Mart and the clerk will hand a parcel
to you to deliver to Prof. Oak, You can jump over the little barriers, if
you would like less fights but i suggest fightin for exp!. Upon
delivery, Prof. Oak will hand you the PokéDex Gary will note to get
a map from his sister (you can too).You won't have to battle Gary
this time so get the map and head back to Viridian. There you
should buy Pokéballs, Potions are not needed really because you
are close to a pokécenter. In the area, Pidgeys and Rattatas are
the only Pokemon found.(For exp. points, you can head West and
battle Gary, but your Pokemon should be level 12 or above).Now
Head North to Viridian Forest. If you go west of viridian (where you
battle gary again) you can catch Nidoran male and female. There
are a few Mr.Mine in this area.
Viridian Forest
You cannot pick up the items to the right just yet, but you will go
back later in the game. In the forest there are 3 trainers, they use
bugs so if you chose Charmander this should be REALLY easy, if
you picked Squirtle or Bulbasaur then it will still be easy but not as
easy as Charmander. Go West from the beginning and you can
pick up a Pokéball, but you do have to walk through the grass. Go
Northeast of the beginning to fight a trainer(You have to fight this
one), His Pokemon are: Weedle level 6 (Bulbasaur is immune to
the poison in poison sting),and Caterpie level 6. From there go
North along the road (The next trainer is optional) Keep going
North and you'll find a Antidote. Go along the road and you'll find a
split towards the end, go South and you'll find another item. A
certain Pokemon you should look for is Pikachu, Although Pikachu
is here, he is weak and doesn't have many moves. But he is
effective against Misty. Once out of the forest, You'll have to go to
Pewter City. You can catch Weedle, Kakuna, Metapod, Caterpie,
and Pikachu.
Pewter City
In Pewter city you must fight Brock. If you don't you cannot proceed
to Mt. Moon. Brock's Pokémon are Geodude level 12, and Onix
level. 14. Brock's Pokémon are easily beaten by Squirtle or
Bulbasaur, Charmander's just out of luck and will have to make it
with what he has (Evolving a Caterpie and/or a Weedle is a good
choice if you're using Charmander).The BOULDER BADGE
increases you Pokémon's power a bit, also flash can now be
used(Badge moves such as FLASH, CUT, FLY, STRENGTH, and
SURF can only be used when a HM is equipped to a
pokémon.)Get some supplies and head to Mt. Moon. You'll want to
get some potions, an Escape Rope or two, and some more
Pokéballs if you need them. Now whould be a good time to level up
your begining Pokémon, you can gain them to as high of a level as
you want and they will still obey you (my friend had a level 38
Blastoise before he beat misty!!) Get it to about level 20 or so. You
can catch a Pidgey, Spearow, and Jiggypuff.
Mt. Moon
Before entering Mt. Moon you should catch a Jigglypuff in the grass
outside Mt. Moon. Mt. Moon is long. Once inside you can find
various items, and many people to battle. Team Rockets first
appearance comes in here, They're easy so don't worry. At the end
you'll fight a Super Nerd, After you beat him you'llget the choice of
two fossils, The Helix fossil or the Dome fossil. Which oneyou pick
matters on what Pokemon you'll get later, Helix: Omanyte, Dome:
Kabuto. You can't get these Pokemon until later in the game so
store it in your PC as soon as you get to Cerulean City. You should
get a Clefairy, Zubat, Geodude, and Paras here.
Cerulean City
Did you get a Pikachu in Viridian Forest? If you did and you own a
Squirtle or a Charmander gain them to high levels before the fight,
If you have Bulbasaur it'll still be easy so don't worry. If you need to
you can catch Oddish\Bellsprout to help you You only HAVE to fight
one other trainer, the one near the beginning of the gym is optional.
Misty is difficult if you chose Charmander. Her Pokémon are Staryu
at level 18 and Starmie at level 21. If you win you'll receive the
CASCADE BADGE, it allows ALL Pokemon up to level 30 to
obey, also lets you use CUT. If you go to the 1st house on the
Northwest side of the city, you can go into the backyard and find a
Rare Candy, You'll have to search a bit but its in the middle of the
two rows going horizontally (Rows meaning spaces North to South
in space).Bikes are too expensive rightnow (But you'll get one soon
enough).

Road to Bill's house/Bill's house
From Cerulean City, head North and fight Gary, go across the
bridge and fight all the trainers there. Go into the grass to the West
and get a grass Pokémon (Bellsprout in Blue and Oddish in Red)
and get an Abra also. To catch an Abra, just throw a Pokéball at it
(its not a guaranteed catch but its the best way right now).Go East
to get to Bill's house, there are lots of trainers in the way so you
mayhave to go to the Pokécenter in Cerulean. Once you get to
Bill's house you'll see a Pokémon but no Bill. Talk to the Pokémon
and do as he asks. After that Bill gives you a ticket to the S. S.
Anne. Go back to Cerulean and you'll see that the Police man \
woman?? has moved so you can get into the house. You'll find a
ROCKET in the back, beat him and get TM #28 (DIG) go back in
the house and the guy doesn't care anymore so just keep it! Head
South and you'll find a tunnel, go through it and you'll end up in
Vermilion City (In the tunnel there is a Full Restore but You'll have to
search for it because its invisible, like the Rare Candy). Catch a
Mankey or a Meowth on your way to the tunnel.
Vermilion City
In Vermilion you have a few things to do: 1.Get the Old Rod from
the fishing guru (Next to the Pokécenter), 2.Beat Lt. Surge and get
the Thunder Badge, 3.Get the Bike Voucher from the Pokémon
Fan club president, 4.And also get on the S .S. Anne. First thing
first though, Lt. Surge is an electric type Pokémon gym leader so
use a Diglett from the cave to the East or a Geodude from Mt.
Moon. The They should be almost totally immune to the attacks of
the electric Pokémon. To fight Lt. Surge you have to search the
trash cans for a switch (It's random), and the a neighboring can for
the second switch. Lt. Surge's Pokémon are Voltorb at level 21,
Pikachu at level 18, and Raichu at level 24, the THUNDER BADGE
speeds up your pokémon a bit and lets you use FLY. Get the
Bicycle with the Bike Voucher and use that, The Bike speeds your
journey up A LOT. There is someone in one of the houses here that
trade a spearow for a farfetche'd.
S.S. Anne
On the S. S. Anne there are many good trainers so make sure your
Pokémon's levels are high and look for the Capt. Because the
Capt. gives you the CUT HM. If you go into the kitchen you will find
a Great Ball in one of the trash cans. Try to search all the rooms
because there some great things in there. From here you should
go through the Digletts cave.
Diglett's Cave
Not much here, Ride your bike through and catch a Diglett. Once
through the cave you'll see a house. There you can get the Flash
HM and the items you couldnt before (with CUT equipped onto a
Pokemon).Go back and East through the mini-maze. You can trade
a abra for a Mr. Mime here.
Mini-Maze
Just stay on the middle track and go North on the last turn if you're
going on a track where at the beginning there was a man near a
sign your going the wrong way, you should see a track going left, a
man, and another man but not in the same place. Go Northeast and
you should be on a direct track where a Jr. Trainer(Female) is
waiting for you, fight her and go East. Here you can catch: Ekans
(Red), Sandshrew (Blue), Spearow, and Drowzee.
Rock Tunnel
Just before the Rock Tunnel you should be at a river with a nearby
field and a little barricade you can jump over. Go South to the
Pokécenter and heal your Pokémon, now go North and catch a
Voltorb. Equip Flash on it and proceed into the cave. Go through
the cave, its semi-direct not TOO confusing. Here you should catch:
Zubat and Geodude (if you don't have them) Onix and Machop.
Lavander Town
Once out of the cave you should be just North of Lavender
Town.You don't have to fight the trainers so just go to the
Pokécenter and heal up. Now Proceed West and through the
tunnel. (You'll have to fight at least 1 trainer) Now you should end up
in Celadon City. Catch a Growlith (red) or Vulpix (blue)to the left of
here.
Celadon City
You have a number of things to do here in Celadon: 1.Defeat Erika
and get the Rainbow Badge, 2.Get the Silph scope, 3.Get Eevee,
4.Get the Coin Box for the Game Corner, 5.Get a Fresh Water
From the Mart (top floor) and give it to the road guard. Erika isnt
too hard to beat, Just Use a fire or bird Pokemon thats around the
same level as her Pokémon. You're gonna have to battle at least 3
trainers. You MUST come with a Pokemon with CUT equipped.
The easiest way to go is on the right and hug the left side. Erika's
Pokémon: Victreebel lvl29, Tangela lvl 24,Vineplume lvl 29. The
RAINBOW BADGE make Pokémon up to level 50 obey, and you
can use STRENGTH. Next your gonna have to go into the Game
Corner, fight the guy who is guarding the poster and press the
switch behind it. Go in the door and go down another flight of stairs.
There will be a number of puzzles to solve and Rockets to fight.
One guy at the bottom should drop a lift key. Now take the lift and
go to the bottom floor, You'll have to fight two Rockets and then
fight Giovanni, he has a level 24 Rhyhorn a level 25 Onix and a
level 29 Kangaskhan. Now after you've fought Giovanni,he should
drop the Silph scope, the one for the ghosts in the Poketower. Now
go back to Lavender Town.
Lavander Town 2
Nothing has changed, just go to the Poketower and fight the
ghosts. When you fight the ghosts the silph scope works
automatically. Once you've made it to the 2nd to the top floor a
ghost will fight you (pre-programmed battle)This ghost is Marowak
and you cannot catch her. Use a water Pokémon and it should be
easy.Beat all the Rockets on the top floor and you'll recieve the
Pokeflute from an old man. Now you should be able to wake up the
sleeping Pokemon to the South (Snorlax) Also make sure to
capture him because there are only 2 Snorlaxes in the entire game.
In the Pokémon Tower: Gastly, Haunter, and Cubone.
Saffron City
Once you've beaten the ghosts in the Poketower you should go to
Saffron City to Battle Sabrina. But First your gonna have to save
the town from Team Rocket. By now, the guy in front of the Silph co.
building has fallen asleep (He'll be off to the side and won't stop
you). Once you go inside its a maze, First you must fight many
people (this includes scientists) and find the Key Card, This will
allow you to get into all the locked areas. Next you must find a
portal that leads you to Gary (You'll have to battle him) once you
defeat Gary, A nearby man will give you Lapras. Go through the
other portal and defeat Giovanni once again. He is easy with
Squirtle or Bulbasaur, since he uses ground Pokemon Water and
Grass Pokémon are effective. You'll get the Master Ball from the
President of Silph co. SAVE IT! Its VERY important! Store it on
your PC. Now Team Rocket has left town so you can now Go and
defeat Sabrina.She uses Psychic Pokémon and isn't too
difficult.Still be careful, you don't have to fight any trainer besides
Sabrina, just go into the opposite portal unless you want Exp.
points, You'll know when you reach her. Sabrina's Pokemon are
Kadabra level 38 Mr. Mime level 37 Venomoth level 37 and
Alakazam level 43. Your Pokemon should be about level 30 or
above. You get the MARSH BADGE for beating her, Pokémon up
to lvl 70 will obey you. Next to Sabrina's Gym is the Fighting Dojo.
This Gym is fighting Pokemon only, and if you beat all the trainers
you get the choice of Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan. Hitmonlee is a
Kicking based Pokémon and Hitmonchan is a Punching based
Pokémon. Now you should head to where you met Snorlax (South
of Lavender Town) along route 12 to Fuschia City. On the way to
Fuchsia City you should catch: Ditto, Venonat, Bellsprout and
Weepinbell (blue), Oddish and Gloom (red),Pidgey and Pidgeotto.
Fuchsia City
once your in Fuschia City, The first thing you should do is go beat
Koga, the poison gym leader. If you picked Bulbasaur this will be
an easy task, Bulbasaur is almost completely immune to poison,
for Charmander or Squirtle I'd suggest a Victreebell or Vileplume
depending on which version you have. There are invisible walls
here so you'll have to fight at least 3 trainers if you don't know
where you're going. now I can't give exact directions but heres
what you do, first go above the Pokémon statue and carefully walk
to the right. Hug the right wall and walk up, you'll have to fight a
Juggler. After you beat him go to the top wall and walk left, You'll
have to fight another trainer here. Now carefully walk right and
down to get to Koga. Now, I'm doing this from memory but his
Pokémon should be around level 35-40.He'll have poison
Pokémon so carry allot of antidotes unless using Bulbasaur. For
beating him you receive the SOUL BADGE, the defense of your
Pokémon increases a little and it allows you to use SURF. Next you
should go to the Safari Zone. Here there are many Pokemon that
can only be caught here, but first you must find the GOLD TEETH
and the SURF HM. Get in there and get on your bike and ride East,
now from here ride to the hill and up onto it, ride West and off of it,
from here ride Northeast and then Westwhen you get to the wall.
Now you should go Northwest over another hill, you should be in a
spot where there are 3 mini-lakes, you must go Northeast around
the Lakes,there should be a sign next to a bush barrier that says
"Trainer Tips: The secret house is still ahead!". Go South and you
should find a Pokéball item which is the GOLD TEETH, from there
go Northwest until you see a house, go inside and a man should
give you the SURF HM. Try to go outside (Time should have run out
by now) and go to the Warden's house. Give him the teeth and he'll
hand you the STRENGTH HM. A Rare Candy is in the ball on the
other side of the room. Next door to the warden is the Fishing
Guru's brother. get the GOOD ROD from him. Go in his backyard
and fish out some Pokémon. Go West and go on the Cycle Road
and go up to Celadon City. Save your game and try to catch the
Snorlax. Take a Pokémon with CUT and cut the nearby bush, go
around the back and a woman there will give you the FLY HM.
Equip SURF on either Lapras or a Water Pokémon you don't really
need. Now, if you're still in Celadon City go to the grass patch just
before the Cycling Road and catch a bird. Equip FLY to it and fly to
Pewter City, Go North to the Museum and CUT the bush in the
front. In the back talk to the guy near the item on the pedestal. He'll
give it to you. Now its time to go to Cinnabar Island.
Cinnabar Island
First you must FLY to Pallet Town. Save your game and go South.
From here SURF down south, catch a tentacool on your way you
should eventually find Cinnabar Island. Here you'll want to take the
fossil from earlier and go into the research center to the left of the
Pokécenter. Go to the 3rd door down and give the man in the back
a fossil, go to the Mart and then back into the center to pick up your
new Pokémon. Repeat with the amber and you'll get Aerodactyl.
Now go and heal your Pokémon, buy some supplies, buy some
Burn heals, and save. Go into the burned out building (This is a
rough walkthrough, not exact) in here, go North and examine the
statue(A), it should have a switch, press it and go upstairs. Do the
same on this floor (Read the notes if you wish, they tell the story of
Mew and Mewtwo). On the 3rd floor you should press the switch
and go South, don't fight the scientist but instead go(there are two
exits, a big one to the left and a smaller one to the right) take the
exit to the left, you should land on the 1st floor but in an area you
couldnt get to. Defeat the scientists and get the Secret Key. Now
exit the building (If you have an Escape Rope its better) and you
can now fight Blaine, the Fire gym leader he has: Growlithe 42,
Rapidash 42, Ponyta 40, Arcanine 47.If you chose Squirtle or
Charmander this will be a cinch. Use A strong Water Pokémon or
a semi-strong water Pokémon and a semi-strong fire Pokémon to
absorb the damage. You will have to defeat almost every trainer
here to advance. The VOLCANO BADGE increases your
Pokémon's abilities a little. Now your ready to go to the Seafoam
Islands. In the mansion you can catch: Koffing, Weezing, Growlithe
(red), Grimer, Muk, Vulpix (Blue), Magmar (Blue), and Ponyta.
