"Nintendo" will now appear in gold and a hidden screen will appear. Also, when you find the secret screen, have four other players attached by wireless adapter and their names will appear on the screen.

Hint: Get all starters:

To get all the starters (Bulbasaur,Charmander, and Squirtle), you will need two Game Boy Advances and another Pokemon GBA game. Start with Bulbasaur, then trade it to your other Pokemon game. After that, start a new game. Start with Charmander and trade it. Then, start another new game and start with Squirtle. Keep Squirtle and catch two Pokemon that you do not want. Trade them for the other two starters you traded to your other Pokemon game. You will now have all three starters.

Choose Bulbasaur Trade it to a friend. Start a new game, then choose Squirtle. Trade it to the same friend. Start a new game and choose Charmander. Trade it to the same friend. Catch four Rattata and one Pidgey. Trade three Rattata for Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander with the same friend. You now have five Pokemon (Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Charmander, Rattata, and Pidgey).

Use the following trick to get the three starters without trading. It requires Pokemon Box on the Gamecube. First, receive your first starting Pokemon in Pallet Town. Then, defeat your rival and go to Viridian City. Get the Oak Parcel then go back to Pallet Town for the Pokedex. Catch a Pokemon of your choice, then return to Viridian City. Turn off the game and transfer your starter Pokemon to Pokemon Box. Make a new game and do the same trick with other Pokemon. When two of the Prof. Pokemon are in the Pokemon Box, return it when you get your first Pokemon. You will then have the three starting Pokemon without trading.

Catch a Ditto and go to Four Island. Give your Ditto and starter Pokemon to the Daycare woman. Walk around the Sevii Islands to pass the time. Even though the old man says "The two don't seem to like each other", it will still work and make a Pokemon egg. This does not work with the Legendary Pokemon T o get the other starter Pokemon, trade your Pokemon with a friend for his egg that was obtained by following the same procedure.

Hint: Starting Pokemon recommendations:

Squirtle is Water type, and has an advantage over Charmander the Fire type starter, who has an advantage over Bulbasaur the Grass type starter. Note: Your rival will always choose the Pokemon with a elemental advantage over yours.

The three starting Pokemon are like three different difficulties. Bulbasaur is like easy because the first two gyms are weak against Grass. Squirtile is like a medium difficulty, because the first gym is weak against Water. Charmander is like a hard difficulty, because the first two gyms are very effective against it. If you choose Charmander, catch another Pokemon to fight against Brock and Misty.

The best Pokemon to start with is Bulbasaur. He can defeat the first two gyms. Charmander cannot defeat the two gyms and Squirtle can only defeat Brock.

Do not choose Charmander as it will make things difficult with Misty and a lot of others. If you choose Sqiurtle do not worry about Misty; it just needs to know bite. Catch a Diglett in Diglett's cave before fighting Lt. Surge. Before fighting Erika, catch a Doduo. They are in the nearest patch of grass to young couple Lea and Jed. Everything else will be fine. If you choose Bulbasaur most things will be fine. Use another Pokemon for Blaine and be careful with Lorelei.

The Water starter type Pokemon Squirtle is recommended. Squirtle can learn Normal, Dark, Ground, Water, Ice and Fighting type moves such as Tackle, Bite, Dig, Surf, Ice Beam, Focus Punch and Earthquake when it is a Blastoise. Using Squirtle can help you defeat the eight gym leaders quickly. Use Water attacks on Brock, Normal or Dark attacks on Misty, Dig on Lt. Surge (because Electric Pokemon are very weak against Ground type moves), and Ice attacks on Erika. Against Koga, use any powerful attacks against or raise an Abra and have it evolve into a Kadabra (or evolve it once more into an Alakazam and use Psychic element attacks). When battling against Sabrina and her trainers, use Bite against all her Pokemon for very effective damage. Against Blaine and Giovanni (head of Team Rocket), use Surf to wash their Pokemon out fast. Squirtle will be a real powerhouse against the gym leaders and for the Pokemon League. Your rival should not be a problem. His Pidgeot is weak against Ice type moves, Rhydon will faint in seconds after a Surf move, the powerful Alakazam will be weak against Bite because it does not have a lot of Defense strength. For your rival's Arcanine, use Water type moves to wipe it out. For his starter Pokemon Bulbasaur, which should now be a Venusaur, use a lot of Ice Beams to make it faint. For his Gyarados, use some powerful Electric attacks or Rock type moves (for example, Zapdos or Golem).

Hint: Gender advantages for starter Pokemon:

If it is male you have a 70% chance of having +1 Attack. If it is female you have a 70% chance of having +1 Defense.

Hint: Abra:

To buy an Abra (level 7), go to the Game Corner in Celadon City. Go up to the desk and buy 500 coins. Go next door to the coin exchange place. Go to the person in the middle and a list of Pokemon you can buy with your game coins will appear. The first one will be Abra. To level Abra up, go to the Daycare Center in Cerulean City. After giving Abra to the Daycare man, walk around for about an hour. Abra will have leveled up about 10 levels or more.

Hint: Aerodactyl:

To get the ancient Pokemon Aerodactyl, go to the house to the right of the Museum in Pewter City. Note: You must have Cut. Talk to the scientist and he will give you the Old Amber. Take it to the Lab on Cinnabar Island and let the scientist bring it back to life. It will be at level 5.

Hint: Articuno:

Articuno can be found inside Sea Foam Islands. You will need HM Surf and HM Strength.

Defeat all the bike riders in the game, then go to One Island. Go to treasure beach. There will be a Articuno waiting. Use a level 9 Rattata. In battle, use Tackle once then a Pokeball to catch it. If it does not work the first time, try again.

Hint: Azurill:

First, get the National Dex. Then catch two Marills or a Marill and a Ditto. Breed with one of them holding the Sea Incense. If the male Marill is holding the Sea Incense you will get a female Azurill. If the female is holding the item you will get a male Azurill. The same happens with Ditto even though it is unidentified. If you have a male Marill and a Ditto the Ditto will actually be a female Marill. You can find the Sea Incense in Lost Cave where Lady Selphy is located.

Hint: Beedrill: Recommended moves:

First, catch a Weedle . Then, train it until it turns into a Beedrill. Teach it the TM Aerial Ace . Train it (use it at gyms that use Grass/Bug Pokemon ) until it is at level 50. It should know the move Endeavor. Use it at tight spots.

Hint: Blastoise: Hydro Cannon:

If you started with Squirtle, make it a Blastoise. Go to Two Island and go to the house on the cove. Blastoise must be in the first slot. She will teach you Hydro Cannon.

Hint: Blissey:

Catch a Chansy in the Safari Zone. Train it and make sure to give it treats such as Carbos after difficult battles. Walk everywhere and do not fly. Once it is about a level 37, give it a treat and make it grow one more level. It should try to evolve. If it stops you need to get the National Dex. When it tries to learn Egg Bomb, this means that it will evolve soon.

Hint: Butterfree:

Catch a Caterpie. Evolve it to Metapod and then to Butterfree. When it turns to Butterfree, get it to level 15 and let it learn "Sleep Powder". Then teach it TM06 (Toxic), TM32 (Double Team), and another move of your choice. When you are fighting another Pokemon, select Butterfree. First use "Sleep Powder". [Screenshot] After the other Pokemon is asleep, use "Double Team" [Screenshot] as many times as possible. When the other Pokemon wakes up, use "Toxic" [Screenshot], then keep using "Double Team". The other Pokemon will be defeated slowly and painfully [Screenshot] and will be almost unable to attack [Screenshot].

Hint: Deoxys:

To obtain Deoxys, you must travel to Island 9. To do this, you need to obtain the Aurora Ticket, which can only obtained through a Nintendo Event, such as Pokemon Rocks America 2004. Bring your Pokemon Fire Red or Leaf Green cartridge to any of the events in Atlanta, Minneapolis, or Seattle to receive the Aurora Ticket.

Hint: Dragonite:

Use the following trick to develop a strong Dragonite. Get a Dratini and evolve it to Dragonair. It must be a Dratini to be at its strongest. ,Then teach it Flarethrower, for Ice and Steel; Ice Beam, for Dragons; Outrage, because it is strong; and Hyper Beam to make it look right.

Hint: Dugtrio:

Dugtrio usually appears in the giant footprints in Diglett's Cave.

Hint: Dunsparce:

Dunsparce is found on Three Island on the other side of the cave by the harbor. You must have first won the Pokemon League.

Hint: Evee: Breed when evolved:

If you already evolved Evee into something else (Vaporeon, Jolton, etc.), you can breed it with a Ditto to hatch an Evee. You must first defeat the Elite 4 and get the Ruby and Sapphire Plates to get to Island Four (where you can breed Pokemon).

Hint: Evee: Evolution:

Train an Evee until it likes you. Then trade it to Pokemon Ruby or Sapphire. It will evolve, depending on the time in the Pokemon Ruby or Sapphire game.

The following are all the ways to evolve Evee. Jolteon with Thunderstone. Vaporeon with Waterstone. Flareon with Firestone. For Espeon, be at level 32, have his spec def higher then his def, and evolve at night. For, Umbreon, be at level 32, have his spec atk is higher then his atk, and evolve before noon.

Hint: Gyrados:

Gyarados will learn Hyper Beam at level 55.

Hint: Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee:

To get both Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee, go to Saffron City's Fighting Gym. Defeat the leader and take one of them. Then, after you defeat the Pokemon League find the Ruby and the Sapphire. Take it to the One Island Pokemon Center and give them to Celio. You can now go to Four Island. Once there, take the Pokemon you obtained to the Daycare Center. Note: This also requires a Ditto. Now walk around for awhile then go back to Four Island. The old man should be up farther than usual. Talk to him and he will give you an egg. After you receive the egg, walk around until it hatches. You will get Tyrouge. Raise it to level 21 and it will evolve. Repeat this until Tyrouge evolves into the desired Pokemon.

Hint: Koffing:

Koffing can be found on Cinnabar Island inside the Pokemon mansion. He is difficult to find, but is there.

Hint: Lapras:

After you get the tea from the woman on the first floor of the Game Freak building, go to the exit near the Pokemon Center. Then, go to Silph Co., which is located in Saffron City. Wander your way to Giovanni. Before you get to his room, you will battle your rival. After you defeat him, a man will appear. After you defeat Giovanni, go back and talk to him. He will ask to give you a Lapras.

Hint: Ledyba:

Ledyba can be found in Pattern Bush on Six Island.

Hint: Magby and Eleckid:

Catch an Electabuzz or a Magmar. Then, catch a Ditto and take them to 4 Island and put them in daycare. Walk a little to get an egg containing a Magby or Eleckid.

Hint: Mewtwo:

Mewtwo is in the Cerulean Cave . There are also level 39 to 68 Pokemon there, such as Wobbofet and Magneton. Mewtwo can be caught with an Ultra Ball only when asleep.

If you have already used your Master Ball, it is possible to catch Mewtwo without putting him to sleep. If you battle with him for a long time he will run out of attacks and will then just use Struggle (a weak attack). You can then somewhat lower his health and he will be easy to catch.

This strategy requires 30 Revives, several Ultra Balls, a Pokemon that can Paralyze or Hypnotize (Haunter recommended), and two backup Pokemon in the party (Dark/Steel/Psychic Pokemon recommended). The strategy is to run Mewtwo's PP out. The best way to do this is to attack Mewtwo with two backup Pokemon. When the battle begins, switch out one of your backup Pokemon and fight Mewtwo. Do not try to weaken him enough that Mewtwo is almost dead. Just weaken Mewtwo enough so he is missing a little health. When your backup Pokemon faints, switch to your other backup Pokemon. Revive the other backup Pokemon that fainted earlier. Keep repeating this until Mewtwo stops using Psychic and Safeguard. Once Mewtwo does this, switch to Haunter. This strategy will work because it is impossible to run out of Pokemon once you revive them. Mewtwo has four moves:Psychic, Recover, Swift, and Safeguard. By now Mewtwo should run on of PP for Psychic and Safeguard. This means Mewtwo's only attack move is Swift. That is good because Swift does not affect Haunter. Also, Haunter's Ghost attacks such as Shadow Ball will be very effective against Mewtwo. Weaken Mewtwo until he is almost dead then put him to sleep or paralyze him. Do not weaken him to 1 HP because he might kill himself.

Hint: Misdreaveus:

Found in the Lost Cave.

Hint: Moltres:

Moltres can only be found at the top of Mt. Ember at Island 1. You will need to defeat Blamie first.

Hint: Nidoking:

When you first start the game ,make sure you get a Nidoran male. When you do, raise it to level 17, which should be the time you get to Mount Moon. Use a Moon Stone and evolve it. You will now have a level 17 Nidoking that grows very fast.

Hint: Persian:

One a Persian reaches level 100 and it still has the Payday attack, you can get 1000 coins off the ground per Payday. Keep using Payday every time to get rich quickly.

Hint: Pichu: Volt Tackle:

You can only get Volt Tackle by catching a Pikachu with a Light Ball. Then, breed it with a Ditto. You will then get a Pichu with Volt Tackle.

Hint: Pikachu:

When you get a Charamander and need help defeating Misty, go to Viridian Forest and search for a Pikachu. He is difficult to find, but is there. Go to the Viridian Forest. There are many grassy areas, but you should go to the grass patch located in the path just before you leave the forest. Keep moving around in it and you will encounter Pokemon. You will eventually run into Pikachu. You can also find Pikachu at the power plant, which is at the top right-hand corner when seen on the town map; it looks like a red dot.

Hint: Politoed:

You can get Politoed by getting by trading a Poliwhirl from Pokemon LeafGreen or FireRed. Poliwhirl must hold the King's Rock in a trade. Once it gets to the other side it will evolve into Politoed.

Hint: Porygon2:

To get Porygon2 you must have the National Pokedex, a Porygon, and an upgrade item. Level it up once and it will evolve to Porygon2 (much more colorful). Trade a Porygon holding an upgrade found in the Rocket Warehouse. It will evolve to a Porygon2 when it reaches the destination game.

Hint: Remoraid:

Found in the water by Memorial Pillar on Five Island.

Hint: Sneasal:

Found in Icefall Cave on Four Island.

Hint: Spinerak:

Found at pattern bush on Six Island.

Hint: Steel:

Go to Island 5. Go to where the youngster planted the Onix. Note: Bring lemonade from Celadon City. Go in front of the grave and press A. An item will appear. Pick up the item. It will be Steel Coat. Give it to your Scyther or Onix. Trade the Onix or Scyther with a friend and it will evolve. To get a Steel (Pokemon Leaf Green) or Scizzor (Pokemon Fire Red).

Hint: Togepi:

Togepi is not available in the wild. The only way to get it (and Togetic, eventually) is to go to the Water Labyrinth, taking the north route on Five Island, then going to the left. You will see a small island with two people. Talk to the man. He will check your Pokemon. If you have raised them correctly, and if you have a open space in your party, he will give you a Togepi Egg. Hatch it, then return to the man. He will tell you a phrase of Daisy Oak. To evolve it, make Togepi love you. It does not have a specific level.

Hint: Tyrogue: Evolutions:

When Tyrogue reaches level 20, it will evolve into Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, or Hitmontop. To make it evolve into Hitmonchan, raise Tyrogue and make sure it has more defense points than attack points. To make it evolve into Hitmonlee, raise Tyrogue making sure it has more attack points than defense points. To make it evolve into Hitmontop, raise Tyrogue to level 20, but check that both attack and defense points are the same when it evolves. To get Tyrogue, breed whichever Pokemon you selected at the Fighting Dojo (Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan) with a Ditto. It will always be male.

Hint: Yanma:

Found in grassy areas where dotted hole is on Six Island.

Hint: Venusaur: Frenzy Plant:

If you started with Bulbasaur, make it a Venusaur. Go to Two Island and go to the house on the cove. Venusaur must be in the first slot. She will teach you Frenzy Plant.

Hint: Zapdos:

To catch a Zapdos, go to the Pokemon Center beside the Rock Cave. From the Pokemon Center, go up until you reach water. Surf to the Power Plant and go inside. Find your way around, and at the end you will find Zapdos, the Thunder type Legendary Bird. Zapdos can be found at the Power Plant bellow the Rock Tunnel.

Hint: Legendary Dogs:

The legendary dog that you get in the game depends on your starter.

Charmander: Suicune (Water)

Squirtle: Raikou (Thunder)

Bulbasaur: Entei (Fire)

To get all three Legendary Dogs, get together with two friends before any of you start the game. Have one player get Charmander, another get Squirtle, and the other get Bulbasaur. Each of you will get one of the legendary dogs: Charmander, Suicune; Squirtle, Raikou; and Bulbasaur, Entei. Once each of you has their own dog, trade one dog for another. For example, player one's Suicune for player two's Entei; player three's Raikou for player one's Entei; and Player three's Raikou for player two's Suicune.

Use the following trick to easily catch Suicune, Raikou, or Entei without a Master Ball. Get a Pokemon the learns the move Mean Look or something similar, or get a Pokemon with the Arena Trap or Shadow Tag abilities to prevent them from escaping. If they do, you will get another chance to catch them, providing you do not make them faint.

Go to Route 11 next to Vermilion City. It is easier to find the Legendary Dogs here.

To get Entei, Raikou, and Suicune easily, go to a route then exit and enter it until you see one of them. Note: Do not forget to use Max Repel.

To catch the Legendary Dogs, you first need to encounter it. That part is purely luck. After you find it, get a Diglett or Dugtrio with the ability Arena Trap. Put it first in your party. Buy about five Super Repels and a lot of Ultraballs. Next, go to the route you want to catch it on. This works if s the Arena Trap Pokemon is a higher level than the wild Pokemon there, and is lower than 50. Also, if you use a repel stand in the grass. Save the game. Check your Pokedex to see if it is on your route. If so, move around until you run into it. If it does not appear, restart the game and check again. Every time you restart the game, the Legendary Dog will be at a different location. Saving on the route in the grass ensures that it does not have a chance to leave before you encoutner it, and the Arena Trap prevents it from escaping once you do. Note: If the Pokemon uses Roar, you will not be able to find it again. Save the game after every time you encounter it, and work its HP down slowly. Attack only a few times then switch out Pokemon so that it can run. Having it stay in the Pokeball is the difficult part.

Finding any of the legendary dogs is a random event. Every time you enter or exit a route they will move. Your best chance to find them is to get a friend who has the Legendary Dog in your game and have him or her trade it to you so that you can track it down. Note: Do not forget Max Repels.

Hint : Legendary Birds:

To catch the three Legendary Birds, battle with a strong Pokemon that knows a Suffering Technique (Poison, Paralyze or Burning) or Immobilizing Technique (Sleep or Freezing). When you have applied the Status Changes, change this Pokemon with another strong Pokemon that is resistant to any attack of the bird's attacks (Water, Fire, Rock, Ground). Make sure these Pokemon are between levels 47 and 55. Attack the bird with only one super effective attack, then with other attacks. Take care of the birds' HP, more if they are poisoned or burned. To keep the birds from fainting, save the game before you battle them. If they faint, reset the game. When they are on the red part of their HP, throw an Ultra Ball.

Hint: Johto Pokemon:

To get your first Pokemon from the Johto Region, defeat the Elite Four. Go to Island 3, then go in the tunnel. Talk to the man and he will give you a Nugget. Go out the door, and there will be a small patch of grass. Walk around in it, and you will find your first Johto Pokemon.

Hint: Duplicate Pokemon:

Use the following trick to easily reproduce rare Pokemon, such as Charizard, Lapras, etc. Capture a Ditto in Pokemon Fire Red or Leaf Green. These can be found in the cave at Cerulean. Transfer your Ditto to Pokemon Sapphire or Ruby, then take it to the Daycare couple in Mauville and leave it there. The quickest way to get an egg is to cycle back and forth a few times in front of the Daycare Center until the old man comes out of the gate. The egg he gives you will hatch into the first evolution of whatever Pokemon you put into the daycare. For example, a Charizard will give you a Charmander. Trade with friends to get the other starters, breed an egg, then trade back. The hatched Pokemon will have you as the original trainer. Some Pokemon will not breed in this way, even though they have a gender (such as Latios and Latias).

Information in this section was contributed by Ray Martin.

Hint: Easy breeding:

When breeding, if the Pokemon you intend to breed is difficult to find catch a Ditto at about the same level as your other Pokemon. There is a better chance of getting eggs if the partners are almost the same level. For example, you can hatch eggs with Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Eevee, Wynaut, and Togepi.

The following baby Pokemon can be obtained through breeding. Note: If you have a Pokemon with a Ditto and the person outside says "They don't seem to like each other much", they will still create an egg. However it will take longer.

Cleefa: Clefairy and Ditto

Igglybuff: Jigglypuff and Ditto

Azurill: Maril with Sea Incense (from Lost Cave) and Marill or Azumarill

Magby: Magmar and Ditto

Smoochum: Jynx and Ditto

Tyrogue: Hitmonchan or Hitmonlee and Ditto

Hint: Breeding legendary Pokemon:

To get more than one legendary Pokemon (if it is a female) go to the Day Care woman and put the legendary Pokemon with any male Pokemon. Walk around for awhile then go back to the Day Care man. If he has stepped forward, he has an egg for you. Take it and walk around for awhile. It will hatch into the legendary Pokemon that the female was.

Hint: Keep track of breeding steps:

When you are breeding a Pokemon, you can always go to the Safari Zone to keep track of your steps. When you are in the Safari Zone, press Start to see how many steps you have taken in order to calculate how many steps you need to breed a Pokemon or egg. This is very useful when you are trying to keep track of your breeding.

Hint: Berries:

Look for a small black area in the grass. Press A, and you will find a berry. Note : This will not work on Big Pearls, Rare Candies, or Pearl.

Hint: Card Key:

Use the following steps to find the Card Key (a card-type key that unlocks doors in Silph Co.'s head office in Saffron City). The Card Key is on the fifth floor. Use the elevator to get there quickly. Find a Team Rocket Member to the left. Move south, enter the teleporter, then go back where you saw that Team Rocket Member or the grunt. Then start moving to the right. You should see a Pokeball that is the Card Key.

Hint: Coins:

After you get an Itemfinder fly to Celadon City. Go inside the Rocket Game Corner and use the Itemfinder to find buried coins (10 to 100). Be careful not to kick them around.

Hint: Diploma:

Complete the National Dex by catching all 386 Pokemon.

Hint: Exp. Share:

Go to Fuchsia City. Walk to the building on the other side of the building that you go through for Cycling Road. Go upstairs and talk to the aide. If you have collected at least fifty Pokemon, he will give you the Exp. Share. The Pokemon holding this item will gain the exact same number of experience points. For example, if Magikarp is holding it it and your Charizard just went up to level 59 and the experience was 496, then Magikarp will gain exactly 496 points.

Hint: Good Rod:

Go to Fuchsia City and go towards the gym. Jump over the hedge. There will be two houses. Inside the one on the right, a man will give you the Good Rod.

Hint: HM SURF:

Go to the Safari Zone then go all the way up and to your left. Enter the house and talk to woman. You will win the Grand Prize, SURF.

Hint: Hydro Cannon:

Go to Two Island. Look on your map. Where it reads "Two Island", it will also read "Cape Brink". If you go to Cape Brink, you will find a house on the very top of it. Go in. There will be a woman in the house. Talk to her and she will give you Hydro Cannon. Note: This will only work if you have a strong Water Pokemon that is the first Pokemon in your party.

Hint: Itemfinder:

The Itemfinder is found upstairs in the building on Route 11. You must have over 30 Pokemon before you can get the Itemfinder.

Hint: Leftovers:

Use the Itemfinder where the two Snorlaxes appeared.

Hint: Luxury Ball:

To obtain a Luxury Ball, you must have rescued Lady Selphy from the Lost Cave on Five Island. After she returns to her house, she will ramble on about how bored she is, then ask to see a Pokemon. When she does this, fly back to the Five Island Pokemon Center and take out the Pokemon that she requested to see. Go back to her house. Place the Pokemon she wants to see first in your party and talk to her. She will call her butler over to you and reward you with a Luxury Ball. These balls are rare and cause the Pokemon captured by them to become more friendly, as if they were holding a Soothe Bell. You can do this as many times as desired. Selphy will sometimes give you another item besides a Luxury Ball, such as a Pearl. Note: If you save and turn off your Game Boy Advance, Lady Selphy will ask to see another Pokemon other than the one she asked for before.

Hint: Macho Brace:

Use the Itemfinder where Giovanni was found in the Viridian Gym.

Hint: Master Ball:

The Master Ball can only be located by saving the president that is in Saffron City, by defeating the leader of Team Rocket. After defeating him, talk to the president. He will give you the Master Ball. It will catch any Pokemon without fail.

Hint: Nest Ball:

Go to the pattern bush on Six Island and catch a Heracross. Go to the house that says "Strongest Horn" and talk to the lady inside. She will give you a nest ball.

Hint: Nuggets:

Go to the last person (Team Rocket member) on Nugget Bridge. Lose to that person after you get the Nugget. Repeat this until you have the desired number of Nuggets. Note: If you save the your game after defeating him, you will no longer be able to do this.

To get unlimited Nuggets, when you are going on the bridge in Cerulean, intentionally lose. An easy way to do this is to catch a Spearow, level 8 to10. This is recommended, as there is a girl in Vermilion City that wants a Spearow for her Farfetch. Go to the bridge after defeating all five trainers. Lose to the Rocket with a Nugget. Deposit all your Pokemon except for Spearow. Continuously lose to the Rocket until you have as many Nuggets as desired. Go into Copycat's house and go upstairs. Select the desk next to the computer to get a free Nugget.

Hint: Old Rod:

This can be obtained in Vermilion. Upon entering, go left to the house at the end. The man in there will give you an Old Rod (can only catch Magicarp).

Hint: PP Max:

Go to Two Island. Make sure to have a Pokemon that knows Surf. Go north towards Cape Brink and Surf in the pond below the waterfall. Go to the lone space on the right and use your Item Finder. PP Max is your reward. It allows a Pokemon's move to be completely maxed out of how many times that Pokemon may use it. Note: Choose wisely.

Hint: Rainbow Pass:

After you get a National Dex, go to 1 Island and talk to the man in the Pokemon Center working on the link. He will ask for a gem. To get it, go to the to Rockets at Mt. Ember. After they are done talking, battle both of them. Then, go inside and find the gem (which is a ruby). Return to the Pokemon Center and talk to the man again. He take it, and after he is done talking he will give you a Rainbow Pass. This will unlock 4-7 Island. Use the following steps to get the Rainbow Pass and Ruby Plate. To get the Rainbow Pass to access Islands 1 to 7, you must first have the Tri-Pass. To get the Tri-Pass you must battle the seventh gym leader and win. Then, Bill will appear and ask you to come with him. Answer "Yes". When you get to the islands, Celio will ask you to do a him a favor. While Bill fixes the network computer, deliver the rock thing to the game place in Island 2. You have to travel to Island 3 to save Lostelle from some Hypno. Save her, then go back to Island 2 and give the rock. When you go back to Island 1 you will find out that the network computer is fixed. After you defeat the Elite Four and want to face the Elite Four, you will learn that Lorelli is missing. She is located at Island 4. You must do some things before you go to Island 4. You must get the National Dex by catching 60 Pokemon. Talk to Celio, who will ask you to get some gem stones. Go to Island 4. Travel around until you get to the HM waterfall. Go out and enter again. Surf up the waterfall and you will see Team Rocket. Defeat them. Go to Island 1 to face Team Rocket on Mt. Ember and defeat them to get the Ruby Plate.

Hint: Repel and Super Repel:

Repel and Super Repel will keep all wild Pokemon of a lower level than the first Pokemon in your party from attacking. However, if the wild Pokemon is of the same level or higher, it will attack. Due to the decreased amount of Pokemon to fight, you will have less random encounters. To exploit the use of this, go to a cave with high level Pokemon such as at Victory Road or Union Cave. Use the Repel once inside. Find a boxed-in type of corner and tap the D-pad gently towards a wall. If done correctly, you will not hear a bumping sound. Doing this should not reduce the number of steps remaining on you Repel counter, because the Repel only counts movement that causes the character to take a step not turning. Just turn into a wall to make it easier for beginners. This trick is useful because you are always facing a Pokemon that is of equal or greater level, allowing you to get levels much faster than usual.

Hint: Ruby:

Go to Mt. Ember. You must fight two Team Rocket goons. Afterwards, go into the cave and navigate your way through it. In the end you will find the ruby and get out of the cave. Visit One Island as soon as you get the Tri-Pass. Go up to Mt Ember until you enter the mountain and the screen looks like you would when entering a house. Take the first right you reach and follow it until you see two Team Rocket members. Talk to them before you complete the game or you will not be able to enter the cave to start getting the stones afterwards.

Hint: Running Shoes:

Follow through Viridian Forest, go to Brock (the first gym leader), and defeat him. Brock has three Pokemon: Geodude level12, Onix level 14, and Geodude level 11. Then, go to the path that leads to Mount Moon's base. Try to go past the man standing slightly past the entrance. He should stop you. He is Professor Oak's assistant. After talking to him, he will give you the Running Shoes. Your aide will give you the Running Shoes after the first gym.

Hint: Sacred Ash:

Go to the Naval Rock Island (if you have the Mystic Ticket), and to the location where Ho-oh confronted you. Use the Itemfinder and it will automatically dig up the Sacred Ash, just like the Macho Brace at Viridian Gym after Giovanni left; and the Top from Pokemon Tower after Mr. Fugi left.

Hint: Sapphire:

Go to the dotted hole and use Cut. You must go to your Pokemon menu and go to the Pokemon that has this ability. Next, fall into the first hole. You are now on Basement Floor 1 (B1). Go through the north hole and you will land on B2. Go through the west hole once you are on B2. Once you arrive on B3, go through the west hole and you will drop down to B4. Finally, go though the south hole on B4. You will then arrive in a room. When you go to the jewel, a man will come down and take it. However, he will give you the second password to the Team Rocket hideout. When you go there, you must fight the man in the end. After you defeat him, he will give you the jewel. You must then take the Sapphire to Celio, and then the link between Hoen and Kanto will be open Visit One Island as soon as you get the Tri-Pass. Go up to Mt Ember until you enter the mountain and the screen looks like you would when entering a house. Take the first right you reach and follow it until you see two Team Rocket members. Talk to them before you complete the game or you will not be able to enter the cave to start getting the stones afterwards.

Hint: Sea Incense:

Enter the Lost Cave on Island 5. Climb down the stairs then go to the entrances in the following order: east , north , south , north. You will find Sea Incense there.

Hint: Secret Key:

Go to the Pokemon mansion. Go to the third floor. Go to the place with the holes in the ground. Go down the closest one to you and navigate your way through.

Hint: Shell Bell:

Teach a Mistermime Trick (at level 38) and go to the Battle Tower. Play Knockout and use Trick on a Vaporeon.

Hint: Silph Scope:

Go to the underground path in Lavender Town and it will lead you to Celadon City. Then, go to the Rocket Game Corner. There will be a grunt looking at a poster. Defeat him, then select the poster. The Silph Scope is found in Team Rocket's hideout after defeating their boss.

Hint: Soothe Bell:

Use the Itemfinder where Mr. Fugi was located in the Pokemon Tower. Note that the Marowak in the Pokemon Tower cannot be caught. Do not waste your Pokeballs because it will just dodge them. To do this you will need two things, the Itemfinder and the Silph Scope. You must have twenty different Pokemon. Talk to Professor Oak's aide.

Hint: Super Rod:

Go to Lavender Town. Go south until you find a house. A man in that house will give you a Super Rod.

Hint: Save TM:

When you have lost any important TM (Shadow Ball, Thunder, Fire Blast, Psychic, etc.), catch or transfer a Ditto. Grab the Pokemon that has the TM then breed it. You will now have the first Pokemon with a TM. This trick is useful when you have lost Eartquake, also is useful when you have any Pokemon to Battle Frontier higher than level 50. Only breed it then you will have the Pokemon with some attack learned by the Pokemon. When you need other Pokemon, try to breed other Pokemon than Ditto. Find a combination until you find a Pokemon. Note: This trick cannot be used with legendary Pokemon.

Hint: Strong TMs:

If you lose Roar, HyperBeam, Dig, SecretPower and Attract, go to the Celeldon Department Store. You can purchase those TMs on the second floor.

Hint: Get to One Island:

To Get to One Island, defeat the Cinnabar Island Gym Leader, Blaine. When you come out, Bill will take you to One Island and give you the Tri-Pass. This will allow you to return at any time by taking the Pass to the boat dock in Vermilion City.

Hint: Getting to Saffron City:

Go to the Celedon Department Store. Buy all three drinks on the sixth floor. The guard will not let you win. In order to get in go to the Mansion that is next a man talking about hot tea, go to the Right side of the Mansion. Enter, then talk to the old lady. She will give you the Tea, and you can now enter Saffron City.

Hint: Safari Zone:

When you get in the Safari Zone you will need to pay 500 to enter and will receive 30 Safari Balls. You cannot use any Pokemon. All you can use is Ball, Bait, Rock, or Run. Ball is to catch the Pokemon, Bait is to give the Pokemon food, and Rock is to throw a rock make a Pokemon angry. However, they will not use an attack on you.

Hint: Unlimited Safari Zone time:

Enter the Safari Zone, then walk into an area and stop in the grass Then, tap the D-pad, but do not move You will find the Pokemon in that area without wasting steps. Find one location in the Safari Zone that suits you. Then, just rotate in place. Random Pokemon should you attack you every few rotations.

Go to the Safari Zone with a Pokemon that knows Sweet Scent. Go to the area where you want to catch Pokemon. Then, use Sweet Scent until you find what you want. Because you do not have to move to use Sweet Scent, you can do this as much as desired. To use Sweet Scent outside of battle, go to a place where you can normally catch Pokemon. Then, press Start. Go to the where it reads "Pokemon" on the menu. Then, choose the Pokemon that knows Sweet Scent. It should have "Sweet Scent" as an option. Choose "Sweet Scent" and you are done. Repeat the process if you want to do it more than once.

Hint: Unlimited safari zone attempts:

Save the game when outside the Safari Zone. If you do not get any desired Pokemon, just restart the game instead of spending 500 each time.

Hint: Team Rocket Hideout passwords:

The passwords to the Team Rocket hideout on the 5th Island are as follows:

Password 1 : "GOLDEEN need log."

Password 2: "Yes, nah, CHANSEY."

Passwords can be found after defeating the Elite Four and getting 60 Pokemon Data. Password 1 is on Island 1 near Mt. Ember, where the two Team Rocket members are found. Password 2 is where you find the Sapphire stone. Note: You cannot enter the passwords themselves at the door to the Team Rocket Hideout. You must to hear them to get in the Team Rocket Hideout Warehouse.

Hint: Easy wins:

This trick requires a Shedinja, a Pokemon that knows Skill Swap, and a Ghost-Dark hybrid, and can only be used in a double battle. Enter the Shedinja and the Pokemon that knows Skill swap into battle first. Have the Pokemon that knows Skill swap use it on Shedinja. Then, switch Shedinja out with your Ghost-Dark hybrid, and have the Pokemon who knows Skill Swap use it on your Ghost-Dark hybrid. Because no move can deal Super Effective damage to a Ghost-Dark hybrid, using this trick to swap Shedinja's Wonderguard over to one will make it completely invincible. However, even with Wonderguard, the Ghost-Dark hybrid will only be invulnerable to attacks. This means that special conditions, recoil, etc. will still do damage to it.

Hint: Easy money:

To get easy money, use a Meowth with the Pay Day attack in wild or trainer battles.

Information in this section was contributed by mcewans.

To do this, you must defeat the Elite Four, have the Amulet Coin, the Vrs Seeker, and the Rainbow Pass. First, go to Island 5. Go up along the coast. Surf north until you meet a trainer on a tiny island. Ignore him or her. Then, go east a short distance and you will find a bigger island with a house. There is a Lady named Jacki near the island you saw a moment ago. She has a level 48 Hopip and a level 50 Skiploom. They are Grass/Flying type. Give the Amulet Coin to a Pokemon that is good against them. Put it up front. Battle her and you will get 20,000 in money. Use the Vrs Seeker to battle her again with the same Pokemon and get 20,000 in money again. Run around the island until your Vrs Seeker is recharged. Battle her as much as desired.

Information in this section was contributed by jek and samz.

To get quick money, get a Zigzagoon. Battle with it. After every battle, look to see if it has a Nugget. When you get one, sell it for lots of money. Note: It will also get lots of other items.

Information in this section was contributed by Evil Genius Ryan.

Have at least two Pokemon and access to Five Island, a level 45 to 50 Persian that knows Pay Day and is holding Amulet Coin, and another Pokemon that is not holding anything but knows Thief. Go to Resort Gorgeous and find the two rich ladies. Fight them using the Vs Seeker. Lady Jacki uses a level 48 Hoppip. Use your Persian and Pay Day against it. The second uses a level 50 Skiploom. Switch to your thieving Pokemon and use Thief to get his Stardust. You will get 2,000 in money (not counting Pay Day), and take the Stardust away from your thief. Lady Gillian uses a level 49 Mareep. Use your Persian against it and Pay Day until it faints. The second is a level 48 Mareep. Use the same attack as the first, Pay Day. The third is a level 49 Flaffy. Switch to your thief and steal his Nugget. Then, finish him off. Repeat this as many times as desired.

Go to treasure beach directly below the One Island port. Then, use the Itemfinder to find the two Pearls. Go to any shop and sell them. Repeat this as many times as desired.

Information in this section was contributed by Ace Tempest.

Catch a Meowth. Raise Meowth untill it learns the move Pay Day. Then, give Meowth the Amulet Coin. For every Pay Day used with Meowth still in battle at the end, it will give you 10 credits per level. For example, if you have a level 25 Meowth it will give you 250 credits per Pay Day attack.

Information in this section was contributed by Rod Robertson.

Hint: Saving money:

To save money, buy only regular Pokeballs (about 350 to 400). Buy as few of Potions, Super Potions, Full Heals, Hyper Potions, Max Potions, and Max Revives as possible. Instead, go to Two Island and buy Fresh Water for 200 (heals your Pokemon by 50 points), Soda Pop for 300 (heals your Pokemon by 60), Lemonade for 350 (heals your Pokemon by 80), Moomoo Milk for 500 (heals your Pokemon by 100), and Lava Cookies for 200 (acts as Full Heal). However, still purchase Full Restores and Revives for when you are in a tight spot. Also, use the Poke-Flute to wake up Pokemon and the Yellow Flute to snap them out of confusion.

Information in this section was contributed by Dustin Droddy.

Hint: Easy experience:

At the beginning of the game, choose Bulbasaur or Charmander to be able to train them faster after the second gym. When you are first able to catch Pokemon, go to Route 22 west of Viridian and catch a Spearow and Mankey. Both will train fast against the early wild Pokemon. Then, train Spearow as much as possible in the Viridian Forest. Its Peck attack will be very effective against every Pokemon in the forest, except for Pikachu (which you should catch because it is rare). After coming out of the forest with a level 10 to 15 Spearow, you should then train Mankey in the grass north of the exit of Viridian Forest. After he learns Low Kick, you can seriously damage the Rattata you will find there. Then in the same patch of grass, train Pikachu. Its Thundershock wipes out pidgeys. Then, train Bulbasaur or Squirtle until it learns Vine Whip or Bubble. You can use these against Brock. Defeat Brock with your starter Pokemon, then train as evenly as possible with everyone else on Route 3, facing all the trainers. Note: Use Pikachu against the toddlers; they seem to like Pidgeys and Spearows. When in Mt. Moon, train Pikachu against the Zubats in the cave. Also, catch a Paras. Additionally, catch a Clefairy if you can find one, although by this time it will be useless to you. Get the TM Bullet Seed left of the entrance to the cave and teach it to Paras. Then, train it against a wild Geodude. Also teach the TM Rock Tomb that you got from Brock to Mankey and train it against Zubats along with Pikachu. Before going to the Nugget Bridge, make sure Pikachu is first in your party. You will face Gary and he uses Pidgeotto first. Then at the Nugget Bridge and the road to Bill's House, train Paras against the hikers. Also train Spearow against the bug catchers. After that training, defeat Misty with Pikachu (and Paras if Pikachu faints). Then, go down to Vermilion and face a few of sailors on the outside deck of the ship. Then, go to the Pokemon Center. Next, go to the route east of Vermilion and train against the gamblers with Pikachu and Paras and use whoever you taught Dig to against the mechanics. Next, go Diglett's cave and have lots of Pokeballs to use, if you find a wild Dugtrio. Then, train Paras in the cave. Also train Squirtle/Bulbasaur. Then, go to the ship as usual and most of your Pokemon should be at or better than level 20. Also, Bulbasaur/Squirtle, Paras, and Spearow should be evolved and you can face Surge with the Pokemon that knows Dig or Mankey with Karate Chop against the Voltorbs.

Put a Pokemon in the daycare. ever step you take after that will give your Pokemon one experience point. Go to Rocket Hide Out in the Casino. Go to part with the moving floor. Find a part where the ground moves straight to a location where it makes you stop. Tape the D-pad in the direction of the moving ground. Check on it every once in awhile to make sure it is still working. Keep the game in this state for a few hours for easy experience.

Information in this section was contributed by John Collins.

Note: This trick requires the Vs Seeker, a bike, and Experience Share. Have a level 50 or greater Pokemon with a powerful attack. Get the Pokemon you want to level up out of the PC. Give it the Experience Share and repeatedly fight the trainers at the top of cycling road. This is a good location because the Pokemon here are about level 30, and there are a lot of trainers in view. Let the Pokemon try its luck fighting them when it gets to level 25. To get rich during this, give the Pokemon that fights most of the time the Amulet Coin. Another good way is to fight the Elite Four with the Experience Share Pokemon with you.

Information in this section was contributed by Kris Reuter.

Note: This trick requires a Vs Seeker, Tri-Pass, Experience Share (if you want to train level 40 and below Pokemon), and preferably a bicycle. Go to One Island. Surf to the right on Kindle Road. Go north until you reach a cave side entrance. There will be two karate trainers running back and forth and a Crush Kin Team on the same screen. Before defeating the Elite Four, the Black Belt on the left has a level 37 Machop and 37 Machoke. The Black Belt on the right has a level 38 Machop and Machoke. The Crush Kin has a level 39 Machoke and level 39 Primeape. After defeating the Elite Four, both of the Black Belts have a level 55 Machoke and Machamp, and the Crush Kin has a level 56 Machamp and Primeape. Fight them and use the Vs Seeker an unlimited number of times to fight them repeatedly. In the cave is the Ember Spa, where you can heal your Pokemon, should they get too hurt from fighting those enemies. Your Pokemon will level up very fast, but after defeating the Elite Four the battles can get a little bit harder to win due to the massive level increase.

Get either a Zapdos or a Fearow that knows the move "Drill Peck". Make sure it is at least level 53. Put it at the head of the party. Place any level 60 Pokemon second, the Pokemon you want to gain the experience third, and equip it with the Exp. Share. Give your lead Pokemon the Amulet Coin. In the last three slots, you can put Eggs that you wish to hatch. Go to Kindle Road on One Island. Move north towards Mt. Ember. There should be five trainers there. Defeat them, then use the Vs. Seeker to face them again. They have Primeapes, Machokes, and Machamps at levels 55 and 56. Repeatedly defeat them to gain quick experience and money. To heal, go north to the Ember Spa and go to the Rejuvenation Pool. Repeat this as many times as desired.

Go to the Pokemon Day Care Center. Give him the Pokemon you wish to level up. That Pokemon gets experience for every step you take. Go outside and walk around. If you do this for a very long time the Pokemon will get more experience and then level up.

Go to Biker's Pass and go to the six Bikers/Cue Balls. Beat them up. Use the Vs. Checker and keep fighting them. You can get Easy Pokeyen and experience. This can help you defeat the Elite Four easier.

Hint: Finding Selphy:

In the Lost Cave, start from the beginning and go right, up, down, down, right, left, down, and right. When she sees you, she will fight with two level 49 Persians. Afterwards you will go to her house and ask to see a Pokemon (Arkanine).

Information in this section was contributed by HPK2004.

After you find Selphy in the lost cave, go to her house at Resort Gorgeous. Talk to her and she will ask to see a Pokemon. If you have that Pokemon, then go to the Pokemon Center on Five Island. Add the Pokemon to your party then go back to her house. Show her, and she will call her butler. He will give you something for it (for example, a Star Piece and Luxury Balls).

Hint: Determining Pokemon's feelings towards you:

When you use an item on one of your Pokemon outside of a battle, such as a Potion, the Pokemon will either move closer or away from you in the short intermission sequence. How far the Pokemon moves depends on how much it likes you. If it does not move at all, it feels neutral.

Information in this section was contributed by Bendilin.

Hint: Trainer name comment:

At the Pokemon Trainer Fan Club in Saffron City, the blonde man in the back will mention the last person you battled in real life. For example, if you battle a friend who named their character "Dusty", he will say, "Dusty's cool, huh? I love the way he talks. I'd really relish a chance to meet him in person once."

Hint: More than one attempt when catching a Legendary Pokemon:

When you are close to a Legendary Pokemon and want to catch it, save the game just before you battle it. If you accidentally make it faint, Just reset the game and try again.

Hint: Catching Pokemon easily:

When catching a Pokemon (for example, a legendary), buy one good Pokeball (for example, a Master Ball) then buy a large number of normal Pokeballs. Go to the place where you want to catch a Pokemon. Then got to your bag. Go to the Pokeballs. Use the single good Pokeball then use a normal Pokeball. When you are throwing the Pokeball hold A + B, then when it goes one way release A and keep holding B.

Hint: Trade to Pokemon Colosseum:

To trade your Pokemon to Pokemon Colosseum through a link cable, you must first complete the game and defeat the Elite 4. You can now trade Pokemon like Mewtwo, Lugia and Ho-oh (if you have the Mystery Pass), Deoxys (if you have the Rainbow Pass), etc.

Glitch: Funny water noise:

First, mate two Pokemon that have the Surf move (or one and a Ditto). When you get the egg, move directly in front of water and press action (A). You will hear a noise as if you were going to use Surf, but you do not. This will happen every time until you get rid of the egg or it hatches. Note: If you have any active Pokemon that knows Surf, this will not work. Also, the two Pokemon have to be mateable.

Glitch: Incorrect dialogue:

Go to the Pokemon Center in front of Mt. Moon. Talk to the man that asks you if you want to buy a Magikarp for $500. If you are the male trainer, he will call you "Miss".

Pokemon LeafGreen Version

Dear Games Guru, so far I have caught MewTwo. Now where do I go? Does my next quest deal with the seven islands? If so, which island do I go to? Or is it at island 8 or 9? You mentioned getting a diploma on the website and that one would have to capture 386 Pokemon. What is the diploma for? Do you have to capture the 386 Pokemon on one game only? Are there diplomas for each Pokemon game?

Games Guru: I’m not sure where you got MewTwo and exactly where you are in the game. I’m assuming it’s the Level 70 MewTwo in the Cerulean Cave. If that’s the case, you have to defeat the Elite 4 and then complete the Seven Islands quest. You’re able to go to the island quest earlier, but it’s best to do it later

in the game. There, you’ll go to One Island first. Regarding the diploma, you have to capture 386 Pokemon to get it. And, yes, many of the Pokemon games offer diplomas. I hope this helps a little.

I got into Cerulean Cave and defeated Mewtwo, but the cave doesn’t seem to have an end. I think that there might be something else I have to do. Please tell me if there is something I missed, if there is an ending to the cave or where to go next.

Games Guru: You’re pretty much done with this mission. But first, I just want to make sure that you have captured Mewtwo, the most powerful of the Pokemon, with a Master Ball. If you already used it, you can still get him with many Ultra Balls. Once Mewtwo is captured, head back to the port of Vermillion City. From there, you can travel to the final Sevii Island: Quest Island.

I just pushed all the boulders into place in Tanoby Key on Seven Island and I heard a distant rumbling. What can I do now?

Games Guru: You are able to enter a house and to find a king’s rock after moving the boulders. I do not know if you could have done those things before moving them. The noise is from a door opening.

Can you still find Entei when you choose Squirtle as your first Pokemon?

Games Guru: Nope, you Squirtle guys only get Raikou; Entei goes to Bulbasaur owners.

On seven island in the house closest to the bridge, there is a back door blocked by boxes. How do I get past the boxes?

Games Guru: I am pretty sure that I have finished everything on Seven Island, and I do not believe I ever passed through that door. There may be something I don’t know about.

How can I get a Cyndaquil?

Games Guru: Sadly, the only way to get a Cyndaquil in LeafGreen is to trade.

I cannot seem to find the sapphire stone. I know I have to go to the dotting hole and use cut on the small ruin-like house, but I can’t use cut on the door because there is a man blocking it. How do I get rid of the man? plz help me!!

Games Guru: It may be easier than you think. The sapphire stone is in the Team Rocket warehouse on Five Island. Beat the Rockets there and the stone is yours.

At the elite four place, a girl is not letting me through. She says Lorelei of the elite four is absent. How do I go through? I have all 8 badges.

Games Guru: Go to IceFall Cave and have a look around. You never know just whom you might find there…

I got to the dotted hole, but there is a man in front of the door. I know you have to cut the door, but I can’t. How can I make the guy move?

Games Guru: Dotted hole? There are lots of places with Braille writing. Is that what you mean? If so, you will need to find a way to decode the Braille.

I really need to know if I can go to island 4 without beating the elite 4.

Games Guru: You cannot get to Island 4 without beating the Elite 4. If you find out some secret way, please let me know.

I can’t get to the Pokemon league. I can’t get past the boulders. Can you help me? Thanks.

Games Guru: Sure. Give the Hidden Move STRENGTH to one of your Pokemon.

What do I need to do if I have all the Unowns?

Games Guru: Time for a spot of honesty here. I have absolutely no idea what to do with the Unown. I don’t even know how many varieties there are. That’s what makes them so mysterious, I suppose.

Are there codes to get a mew or master ball, and are there Deoxys in the game?

Games Guru: This game has about a million unlockable items and creatures, but there are no codes. As I understand it, you get one master ball unless you want to import more from another cartridge. Also as I understand it, there are Deoxys on Birth Island — Island 9.

I am at Mount Ember and am trying to get the Ruby, but these two Team Rocket grunts won’t move or battle me. I don’t know what to do. Also, can you tell me where to get the Sapphire? Please help me.

Games Guru: You probably need to speak with Celio, the guy in the Pokemon Center on One Island before setting out. Go back and speak with Celio, and the Rockets will gladly fight you.

How do you get the move Rock Crusher?

Games Guru: I am not familiar with Rock Crusher. Are you sure you do not mean HM 6, Rock Smash? You get Rock Smash in a cave on the northern portion of One Island.

How do you get through victory road?

Games Guru: That’s a big task. I can’t give you a “turn left here” and “take these steps” roadmap. I recommend having several escape ropes; six strong Pokemon — one that can break rocks and push rocks and one that can swim; and several revives and lemonades. You will get through; it just may take you an hour or two.

I have 7 gym badges and beat Blaine. When Bill asked if I wanted to go the the Rainbow Islands, I said yes by accident. I need to get back and get the 8th gym badge before I go to Rainbow Island. How do I get off Rainbow Island and go back to Kento region?

Games Guru: You should be able to catch the boat from One Island. If it is not there, check for side quests. As soon as you complete a small side quest, the boat will return.

Is it true that there are islands 8 and 9? If so, can you tell me how to get there? And can you also tell me where to get Mew?

Games Guru: There are indeed nine islands in the Sevii chain. The problem is that to reach them, you need a game code device such as a Gameshark or you need the Mystic Ticket, which you can only obtain by visiting a Nintendo event and downloading it.

I know about catching Mewtwo in that cave, but I never did see Mew.

How do I get into the rockets hideout on island five? I got one code; where’s the other?

Games Guru: You need two “secret codes” to open the warehouse. You will find one password on six islands and the other password on seven island.

Are there any legendary Dogs? If so, how do I get them?

Games Guru: I suppose Entei or Suicune could be considered doglike, but I cannot name a species for them. They are legendary. In order to get a shot at Entei, you need to select Bullbasaur as your first Pokemon. For Suicune, you need to start out with Charmander. Catching them is tough, as they move around.

After you complete the kanto pokedex and get all 150 Pokemons, what do you have to do to get diploma and the hard egg?

Games Guru: Have you really done that? Wow! I have never caught ‘em all. To earn the diploma, however, you must catch 386 Pokemon. I do not know anything about the hard egg.

After you’ve given Celio the ruby and sapphire, what are you meant to do?

Games Guru: You can now enter the Cerulean Cave and catch many, many great Pokemon. That is the place where you will find very powerful Pokemon indeed, including ______. No spoilers. Sorry.

I’ve beaten the Elite 4, but I can’t get the ruby. How do I get it?

Games Guru: Beat the Elite 4 and go to Mt. Ember. It is there.

How do you get into Cerulean Cave, and where are Mew and Mewtwo?

Games Guru: Mewtwo is in the Cerulean Cave. To get in, you need to do something impressive: Give Celio the Sapphire he requires.

I’m trying to figure out Braille signs so I can go on in the game. Where can I look them up?

Games Guru: You will find a Braille key in one of the rooms on Mt. Ember.

How do I get to Island 4? Even though I beat the Elete Four, I cannot get to Island 4.

Games Guru: You do not need to get to Island 4 to beat the Elite 4; they are at the end of Victory Road. After you beat the Gym in Veridian City, head west along the road. Make sure you have a Pokemon with surf as well as one that can break rocks and push boulders.

Now that you have all 8 badges, the guards will let you through the various gates and arches all the way north on Victory Road until you come to a cave. This cave is long and filled with tough opponents and wonderfully powerful wild Pokemon that you can catch and add to your collection. Make sure you have herbs, burn heals, revives and everything else you could need to keep your Pokemon going as you find your way through the cave.

Remember, BE PREPARED.

You will find the Elite Four once you find your way through the cave.

I have been having trouble trying to make my Abra as strong as like level 98, and right now it’s about a level 49. When I beat the Elite Four, I’m going to trade it for Mr. Mime from a kid in the game. Would it be better to keep Abra?

Games Guru: If you evolve your Abra up to an Alakazam, it becomes a very good pokemon. Its natural ability is that it does not flinch, making it more reliable in tough fights, and it synchronizes with opponents.
