Hi! RED's been away for a long time. He hasn't called either, so I have no idea where he is or what he's been doing. They say that no word is proof that he's doing fine, but I do worry about him. Heh, I'm just a GRUNT. I don't know the password. Too bad for you. Look! Check out my bag! I printed out my favorites from my #DEX and stuck them on my bag. OK, OK. Picture your house in your mind… Why do I climb mountains? Because they're there. Why do I train #MON? Because they're there! Do you remember? Sob… …Waaaaaaah! You're mean! You shouldn't be so serious! You… you child, you! Ah! My FARFETCH'D! You found it for us, kid? Without it, we wouldn't be able to CUT trees for charcoal. Thanks, kid! Now, how can I thank you… I know! Here, take this. A bunch of DIGLETT popped out of the ground! That was shocking. #MON can hold items like POTION and ANTIDOTE. But they don't appear to know how to use manmade items. Just forget about it. Your first battle against dragons? I'll show you how tough they are! My TEDDIURSA is the cutest in the world. Hey, kid! Want to battle with me? See the pillar shaking? People are train- ing upstairs. 's House You've got dazzling style! You must have ice in your veins to dis TEAM ROCKET. Baby is a rude name to call us girls! That happens to be ROCK SMASH. You can shatter rocks with just a single well-aimed smack. If any rocks are in your way, just smash 'em up! I do only one haircut a day. I'm done for today. Blooming Beautiful FLOWER SHOP ELM: Do you want TOTODILE, the water #MON? Uh-oh… You have more than one #MON. You'll have to use @ I got quite a shock at the GYM. There were all these girls who looked identical. Don't I think #MON are cute? I'll think my #MON are cute-- after they beat yours! There are only two of us, so we're always busy. He broke in through here! Huh? I shouldn't have lost that… Do your #MON know HM moves? Those moves can be used even if your #MON has fainted. I guess I have to do things fair and square… looks delighted! Yo! … Huh? It's over already? Sorry, sorry! CINNABAR GYM was gone, so I didn't know where to find you. But, hey, you're plenty strong even without my advice. I knew you'd win! MOOMOO MILK is good for beauty and health, but inconveniently, they only sell a bottle at a time. I worry about RED getting hurt or sick, but he's a boy. I'm proud that he is doing what he wants to do. I lost at the slot machines again… We girls also play the slots now. You should check them out too. Dragons are weak against dragon- type moves. It's the radio transmitter that's sending the sinister signal. It's working at full capacity. KOGA's daughter succeeded him as the GYM LEADER after he joined the ELITE FOUR. MT.MORTAR WATERFALL CAVE INSIDE COPYCAT: Pardon? I shouldn't decide what you should do? But I'm really worried… What if someone finds it? JASMINE must be worried sick about the #MON here. She won't even smile these days. Sorry--@ You'll need more money than that. Hyuck-hyuck-hyuck! So, that's how? Aww… I keep losing all the time! I'll just have to try harder! Anyway, thanks for battling me again and again. Here's that present from the other time. TUSCANY: Have you met MONICA, my older sister? Or my younger brother, WESLEY? I am the second of seven children. Did you talk to the old man by the #MON CENTER? He'll put a MAP of JOHTO on your #GEAR. What do you want? If you interrupt our work, don't expect any mercy! You're headed to AZALEA, are you? Let my #MON see if you are good enough to battle. The #MON March on the radio lures wild #MON. I just happened to come through ROCK TUNNEL. There was some commotion at the POWER PLANT. So good of you to come here! SPROUT TOWER is a place of training. People and #MON test their bonds to build a bright future together. I am the final test. Allow me to check the ties between your #MON and you! Nope! This won't do at all. This GYM has a slippery floor. It's fun, isn't it? But hey--we're not playing games here! Our city was featured on a radio program. It's nice to hear praise for your city, but it's a bit embarrassing too. #MON LEAGUE VICTORY ROAD ENTRANCE Have you ever gone swimming in the sea at night? Mom's good at bargain hunting. She always buys stuff at lower prices. This is the sea, as you can see. Some #MON are found only in water. Oh no! You seen me already! I make big mistake! : Hi! Do you like #MON? : Uh, no, I just asked you. : Huh? You're strange! Whenever I get in trouble, Daddy always scares me. Drat! I was sunk by indecision! It's labeled EMERGENCY. Strength in con- viction… You're strong be- cause you believe in your #MON. Ayieee! That can't be! I can keep dancing because there are people who enjoy what I do. My #MON keep my spirits up too. Whoa! Excuse me. I was in a hurry! My granddaughter is missing! She's just a wee girl. If you see her, please let me know! GUIDE GENT'S HOUSE I know what my weaknesses are. Let there be light on your journey. REPEL is a neces- sity if you are going to explore a cave. Even though I like exploring, I still haven't made it to all the caves. You're working on a #DEX? Wow, you must know some pretty rare #MON! May I please see it. Please? No! I was going to make my debut at the BATTLE TOWER… I should go back to VERMILION and redo my training… There's a lighter here. , here's your GS BALL back! JENN: Don't get cocky! My sister KATE is tough! Oh, please wait. handed over the #MON holding the MAIL. I… I couldn't do a thing… GIOVANNI, please forgive me… Hyuck-hyuck-hyuck! You're good! Let me battle with the #MON I just caught! PEWTER CITY A Stone Gray City Wait up! What's the hurry? SPEARY: Ch-chun! I travel the world to train my #- MON. I wish to battle with you. You have some good #MON there. It must be from the training you gave them around VIOLET CITY. The training at the GYM must have been especially helpful. As a souvenir of VIOLET CITY, take this. It increases the power of grass- type moves. I don't mind losing. I'm trying to beat WHITNEY, but… It's depressing. I'm okay! If I lose, I'll just try harder next time! ERIKA will get you back for us! Hello. Oh, your #MON… MANAGER: My be- loved generator! Keep pumping the electricity out! Oh. Please come back with coins! You're lying! Even I haven't been approved! …Humph! I knew you were lying. …Grumble… This lake is full of GYARADOS but nothing else… So the MAGIKARP are being forced to evolve… BUENA: Oh, wow! Thank you! What was your name again? …, OK! Come on, . Join the show. BUENA: YIPPEE! That's right! You did tune in! I'm so happy! You earned one point! Congrats! opened a book. Travel Tip 1: Press START to open the MENU. PERSIAN: Fufushaa! It's a weird tree. Use SQUIRTBOTTLE? , have you heard? There have been fresh rumors of a rainbow-colored #MON appearing at TIN TOWER. I've just had my party healed, so now I'm headed to ECRUTEAK. I'll be seeing you, ! You have magnifi- cent #MON with you. How about a photo for a souvenir? That's shocking! Phone numbers are stored in memory. Just choose a name you want to call. Gee, isn't that convenient? I'm investigating MT.MORTAR, but my pal's gone AWOL. Have you seen a trainer who has a SLOWPOKE that can use STRENGTH? Arggh. I give up. Are you going to make your #MON forget some moves? Hm? This is no place for playing. Whoa, you kick! Give me a shout if you want your DIPLOMA printed. Oh, your #GEAR works as a radio! I feel so much lighter in water. We hope to serve you again. Welcome to GOLDEN- ROD DEPT.STORE. Oh… We lost… The RADIO TOWER in GOLDENROD CITY is a landmark. They're running a promotional cam- paign right now. They'll modify your #GEAR, so it can also serve as a radio. What else do I like besides #MON? MARY on the radio. I bet she's cute! received RISINGBADGE. Your #MON party is full. A sunburn is the worst for skin. But I don't use a sunblock. I won't pollute the water. MORTY, the GYM LEADER, is soooo cool. His #MON are really tough too. Yawn! I must have dozed off in the sun. …I had this dream about a DROWZEE eating my dream. Weird, huh? Huh? What's this? Where did this TM come from? This is spooky! Here, you can have this TM. received THUNDERBADGE. BLAINE: My fire #MON will be even stronger. Just you watch! Hahaha-hachoo! ELM: ! There you are! I needed to ask you a favor. I'm conducting new #MON research right now. I was wondering if you could help me with it, . You see… I'm writing a paper that I want to present at a conference. But there are some things I don't quite understand yet. So! I'd like you to raise a #MON that I recently caught. Rats! If only I had a dragon! Your friend is not ready. I'd have to say that's my loss. When you go out- side, you can see the roof of a big building. That's the POWER PLANT. DIRECTOR: , thank you! Your courageous actions have saved #MON nation- wide. I know it's not much, but please take this. If CLAIR allows it, her grand- father--our MASTER --will also. You may enter. My stupid radio distracted me! KARATE KING, the master of the FIGHTING DOJO, was just destroyed by SABRINA. It's going to be tough to win at the LEAGUE. I need to do some more training. I hear that the LEAGUE's ELITE FOUR are tougher than GYM LEADERS. Gyaaas! Hi! Aren't you a cute trainer! May I see your #MON? Our investigation, with your help, is giving us insight into the RUINS. The RUINS appear to have been built as a habitat for #MON. Did you clear that wretched tree? I'm impressed! I want you to have this. I feel so content, fishing while lis- tening to some tunes on my radio. How are things? Land the big one? What is going on at LAKE OF RAGE? We were planning to camp there. MOVE DELETER'S HOUSE The answer is coming up next! I lost! I'm speechless! Wow… Look at all those YANMA! I'm so blown away, I can't move. I ran out of # BALLS while I was catching #MON. I should've bought some more… Hey, your COIN CASE is full, kid. You must be riding a winning streak too. Mystery #MON Name: UNOWN A total of 26 kinds found. I'm gonna show my girlfriend I'm hot stuff! TUSCANY: Today is not Tuesday. That is unfortunate… It's so far to CIANWOOD. But it's no easy return trip to OLIVINE either. What should I do? received BOULDERBADGE. ILEX FOREST is so overgrown with trees that you can't see the sky. Please watch out for items that may have been dropped. ROUTE 42 ECRUTEAK CITY - MAHOGANY TOWN Will you quit bothering me? There's a radio program that plays # FLUTE music. Oh? Ah, your radio needs an EXPN CARD to tune into it. read the MAIL. Be good and look after the house with Grandpa and SLOWPOKE. Love, Dad I heard CLEFAIRY appear at MT.MOON. But where could they be? BLUE: Listen, you. You'd better not lose until I beat you. Got it? ED: I envy you. I just couldn't do it this time. Oh, my poor #- MON! Darlings! Yo! You're spunky! But you know what? When it comes to sheer spunkiness, I'm the man! I used to work for SILPH, but now I run research for TEAM ROCKET. A meddlesome child like you needs to be punished. Good! Then listen up! So… my favorite RAPIDASH… It… cute… lovely… smart… unbearably… plus… amazing… oh… you think so?… Too much… wild… beautiful… kindly… love it! Hug it… when… sleeping… warm and cuddly… Oh, and… spectacular… ravishing… simply divine… Oops! Look at the time! I've kept you too long! It's the CARD KEY slot. Is there really a #MON that big? If it exists, it must be powerful. There once was a weird old man who sold MAGIKARP. He was saying the MAGIKARP from the LAKE OF RAGE were excellent. Oops! I so sorry! You not hurt, okay? I very busy. No time for talk- ing with you. Not good for me if seen by somebody. Whew! That was an electrifying bout! It sure made me nervous. I train to find enlightenment in #MON! Darn it! I wanted to win! Is that what you were expecting? Wrong! I'm an imposter! I pretended to be the real thing to prepare for our takeover. Do you want to know where we hid the real DIRECTOR? Sure, I'll tell you. But only if you can beat me! Ayuh? My ITEMFINDER is responding… When my #MON got sick, the PHARMACIST in ECRUTEAK made some medicine for me. I… I'm crushed… My training is still not enough… But a loss is a loss. I admit it. As proof that you defeated me, I'll give you a rare fighting #MON. LANCE: DRAGONITE, HYPER BEAM. LAKE OF RAGE is back to normal. The MAGIKARP have returned. I may yet realize my dream of see- ing the world's largest MAGIKARP. Do you have a ROD? Please help me if you do. DAISY: You don't want to have one groomed? OK, we'll just have tea. If my assumption is correct, PROF. ELM will know it. Would you like to battle over a GAME LINK cable or by mobile phone? I'm not losing this time! Awww… I've got a losing record… I shouldn't have been bragging about my skiing… You're strong. You obviously must have trained hard. SNORLAX is snoring peacefully… How does this style look to you? This can't be… Do you know of a sea #MON that has a red sphere in its body? You know, the one that's shaped like a star? I heard that it appears at night. I would surely like to see it. Yow! You're too strong! CELADON DEPT.STORE has the biggest and best selection of merchandise. If you can't get it there, you can't get it any- where. Gee… I sound like a sales clerk. The SAVE option is on the MENU. Use it in a timely manner. CINNABAR's volcano erupted. It hurled boulders that cut off ROUTE 19 indefinitely. I wonder if the people of CINNABAR are safe… FALKNER, from the VIOLET #MON GYM, is a fine trainer! He inherited his father's gym and has done a great job with it. But can't hold another item… EUSINE: I heard that SUICUNE is in this BURNED TOWER, so I came to look. But where exactly could it be? It's unsafe to go in there, so I'm standing guard. Aren't I a good Samaritan? Yeah, I'm a sail- or, all right. I wasn't goofing off! This cabin was vacant, so I just took a quick nap! Ah, forget it! Let's battle! Hi. Did you know…? #MON get more friendly if you train them in a place that they remember. Your #MON will be fully healed before battle. TIN TOWER is off limits to anyone without ECRUTEAK GYM's BADGE. Ah! ECRUTEAK's GYM BADGE! Please, go right through. Aiyaaah! I got stomped! TRAINER TIPS Use HEADBUTT on trees to shake #MON out. Different kinds of #MON drop out of trees. Use HEADBUTT on any tree you see! MISTY: I was ex- pecting you, you pest! You may have a lot of JOHTO GYM BADGES, but you'd better not take me too lightly. My water-type #MON are tough! Where did you say you're from? NEW BARK TOWN? PROF.ELM lives over there, right? You've come a long way to get here. FLASH illuminates even the darkest of all places. But to use it out of battle, you need the BADGE from VIOLET's GYM. Destroyed by the first opponent in no time at all… I'm no good… IRENE: Isn't this beach great? It's our secret little getaway! received a #MON with MAIL. We're traveling around the world. LANCE: I've been waiting for you. ! I knew that you, with your skills, would eventually reach me here. There's no need for words now. We will battle to determine who is the stronger of the two of us. As the most power- ful trainer and as the #MON LEAGUE CHAMPION… I, LANCE the drag- on master, accept your challenge! Pant, pant… Just… a little… farther… to… FUCHSIA… is your opponent today. That POLIWAG that got away… It was huge. I swear it must've been 16 feet long! DRAGON'S DEN AHEAD CINDY: I really love bug #MON! Bull's-eye! Question 3: Does HM01 contain the move FLASH? A GYM LEADER isn't just about being strong. A LEADER also needs to be compassionate. Even PROF.OAK here recognizes that. I'm gonna win, for sure! Pant, pant… I finally got through that cave. It was much bigger than I'd expected. I got too tired to explore the whole thing, so I came outside. Oh! We lost! I've heard that the whirlpools around the islands are caused by the sea creature. You might need a special move to get past them. I'm raring to shop again today! Ack! I lost that one… received GLACIERBADGE. Three #MON may enter battles. All three must be different. The items they hold must also be different. Certain #MON may also have level restrictions placed on them. Whew! That was a jolt! ARTICUNO, ZAPDOS and MOLTRES are the three legend- ary bird #MON. I heard there are other legendary birds, though. I played too much! GYARADOS: Gyashaa! Really? Great! Give me your name and phone number, and I'll loan you a BICYCLE. ARTHUR: A #MON that uses rock- type moves should hold on to that. It pumps up rock- type attacks. If it's light, a cave isn't scary. If you're strong, #MON aren't scary. No! Not in this battle! Yo! CHAMP in making! This GYM is home to normal-type #MON trainers. I recommend you use fighting-type #MON. #COM CENTER and MOBILE CENTER were built to satisfy demands for trades and battles with trainers far away and with total strangers. MAHOGANY TOWN #MON GYM LEADER: PRYCE The Teacher of Winter's Harshness Yawn? SILPH CO.'s HEAD OFFICE and the MAGNET TRAIN STA- TION--they're the places to see in SAFFRON. We have recordings of the cries of all #MON that have been found. We must have about 200 kinds. Come again, if you so desire. Some moves may cause confusion. Confusion may make a #MON attack itself. Leaving battle clears up any confusion. Keep reading? You've started to collect KANTO GYM BADGES? Don't you agree that the trainers here are tough? Excuse me! For STADIUM rules, please bring six different #MON, excluding EGGS. The six #MON must be different. Also, they must not be holding identical items. Please come back when you're ready. No inner tube for me. I'm hanging on to a sea #MON! The WARDEN is traveling abroad. Therefore, the SAFARI ZONE is closed. ROUTE 39 OLIVINE CITY - ECRUTEAK CITY So how did it go? I guess there's no point in asking. You did fail? …What? You passed? Before throwing a # BALL, weaken the target first. A poisoned or burned #MON is easier to catch. Keep reading? Thanks, kid! I chewed him out good so he'll quit slacking off! Fooled you! Hahaha! To my brothers and sisters: We take pride in serving #MON trainers. When trainers talk to you, give them something useful. Love, MONICA Keep reading? You're a #MON trainer, right? Then you have to battle! Chew… Chew… I hear there was big trouble at the POWER PLANT. Chew… Chew… Haaah, I'm full! You can't rename a #MON you get in a trade. The name is a re- flection of the original trainer's feelings for it. Oh, no. I've lost something that's very important. I'm too impatient for fishing… I flamed out! So, want to know how to raise #MON well? Don't let my #MON's cute looks fool you. They can whip you! Done! I modified your #DEX. I added an optional #DEX to store UNOWN data. It records them in the sequence that they were caught. Would you get this? Some guy made fun of my #MON! Darn it! My #- MON's great! You look like you have many #MON, but PIKACHU is still the best. While exploring the RUINS, we suddenly noticed an odd presence. We all got scared and ran away. You should be careful too. Hey! Intruder alert! I'm the GRAPHIC ARTIST. I drew you! Hi! Wow, I'm glad to see you. You're the first visitor I've had in a long time. I'm super-happy! Let me give you a little present. Wait, ! Could you go see why ILEX FOREST is so restless? Ooh, you calmly disposed of me… The train hasn't come in… I know! I'll carry the passengers on my back! That won't work. I want to become stronger, but I'm not good yet… Could you show me how sometime? The levels of the #MON I want to use are all different. I have to go train them now! ROUTE 36 You came out from JOHTO? You can zip back home by hopping on the MAGNET TRAIN. Darn. I couldn't do a thing. It's SHADOW BALL. It causes damage and may reduce SPCL.DEF. Use it if it appeals to you. Hi, ! Leaving again? You should tell your mom if you are leaving. SANTOS: … It's Saturday… I'm SANTOS of Saturday… Fizzle… The flame's tiny… Fine. I shall tell you the secret of the invisible floor. The path is right before our eyes! DIRECTOR: Hello, ! You know, I love #MON. I built this RADIO TOWER so I could express my love of #MON. It would be nice if people enjoyed our programs. The greatest fire- breather in KANTO, that's me. But not the best trainer… I get the other guy's #DEX sticker if I win. Patterns appeared on the walls… RAGECANDYBAR's sold out. I'm packing up. Don't bother me, kiddo. I see… We, the WISE TRIO, have been given the responsibility of protecting the legendary #MON. We are to allow passage only to those people who possess the power and soul of truth. Please, do go on and enter the TIN TOWER ahead. SUICUNE will put you to the test. Steal and sell! That's basic in crime, kid! Humph! What are you doing falling into a hole? Some genius you are! Serves you right! Ouchies. Let's see what's in the fridge… FRESH WATER and tasty LEMONADE! Ugh. My poor #- MON… What an impressive collection of GYM BADGES. We should battle! Don't lay a finger on my students! You can read it, but don't lose it! ROUTE 31! Oh, yeah. There was a weird tree blocking the road. I wonder if it's been cleared? Wiped out by some punk from JOHTO… No! Oh, MEOWTH, I'm so sorry! Good morning, ! I'm visiting! That's too much to handle! You made your soul stronger, not just your abilities. A secret switch! Better press it. If you cruise down CYCLING ROAD, you will end up in FUCHSIA CITY. KURT: Hi, ! You handled your- self like a real hero at the WELL. I like your style! I would be honored to make BALLS for a trainer like you. This is all I have now, but take it. I'm waiting for #MON that appear only in the morning. It contains a #MON caught by PROF.ELM. , I want you to have this for your errand. Since MISTY's out, we'll be away too. GYM TRAINERS I lost. That's pretty sad… The door's closed… It needs two passwords to open. I won't lose as an angler! I catch #MON all day. We discovered that a #MON will not hatch until it grows in the EGG. It also has to be with other active #MON to hatch. , you're the only person we can rely on. Please call PROF. ELM when that EGG hatches! I won't quit until I win! SANTOS: Today's not Saturday… RUINS OF ALPH Exploration Year 10 SLOWBRO: Yarah? received ZEPHYRBADGE. Do you know about SLOWPOKETAIL? I heard it's tasty! Aren't you glad I told you that? Hey! Underneath this poster… There's nothing! CHUCK: Urggh! … Oooarrgh! ILEX FOREST SHRINE… It's in honor of the forest's protector… Oh? What is this? It's a hole. It looks like the GS BALL would fit inside it. Want to put the GS BALL here? ILEX FOREST Enter through the gate. While I float like this, the waves carry me along. You should use the right BALLS to fit the situation. The SLOWPOKE have returned… But my APPRENTICE hasn't come back from ILEX FOREST. Where in the world is that lazy guy? Only people headed up to LAKE OF RAGE have been through here lately. Awww… I lost… I don't believe it! I was beaten! This #MON drifted in the sea by twisting its ten tentacles. ERIKA: That was a delightful match. I felt inspired. Please, I wish you to have this TM. It is GIGA DRAIN. It is a wonderful move that drains half the damage it inflicts to heal your #MON. Please use it if it pleases you… BARRY: It's easier to win if you get a high-level bug #MON. But I think they also consider some other points. These binoculars let me see far away. Maybe I can see my own house. Is it the one with the green roof? , do it! I'm behind you all the way! Then again, it's not as scary while it's still light outside. Come back after sunset, OK? If you don't skate with precision, you won't get far in this GYM. Go meet many kinds of #MON and complete that #DEX! But I've stayed too long. I have to get to GOLDENROD for my usual radio show. , I'm counting on you! I'm visiting my grandma to catch me some bugs! Battles are about concentration. Please tune in to our radio shows. I know! I'd like you to have this! I'm the PRESIDENT. My dream was to build a train that is faster than any #MON. It really brings JOHTO much closer to KANTO. ROUTE 45 MOUNTAIN RD. AHEAD If a #MON has different colors from usual, it's more valuable. What? You mean that's not true? Back to fishing for me, then. Sorry about being away. Let's get on with it! Please be careful if you are swim- ming to SEAFOAM ISLANDS. FUCHSIA POLICE I lost to some kid…? I'm building up my legs by bracing against the ship's rocking! Ooh, how shocking! No CINNABAR citi- zens were injured by the eruption. That's great! Aiyah! ANN & ANNE: Nnn… A little too strong. Have you been to the BATTLE TOWER? I never, ever lose there, but… Uh-huh. Yeah, and you know… Pardon? Battle? I'm on the phone. Oh, all right. But make it fast. LANCE: , let's give it our best for #MON. My daughter likes to mimic people. Her mimicry has earned her the nickname COPYCAT around here. This happened when I was young. The sky suddenly turned black. A giant flying #- MON was blocking out the sun. I wonder what that #MON was? It was like a bird and a dragon. , isn't it? Congratulations! As a special deal, a GS BALL has been sent just for you! Please accept it! found @ What's this? House for Sale… Nobody lives here. No? How disappointing! OK. Please go back outside and finish up. … … … …I got it! You wanted this! What kind of trainer do you wish to battle? received FOGBADGE. I'd say I'm a bet- ter swimmer than you. Yeah! ECRUTEAK was also home to three #MON that raced around the town. They were said to have been born of water, lightning and fire. But they could not contain their excessive power. So they say the three ran like the wind off into the grassland. Let a #MON hold that QUICK CLAW. Sometimes it will strike first during battle. How is your #- DEX coming? Let's see… CHARCOAL KILN Awright! I'll show you the power of mountain #MON! I'm in training. Care for a round? KURT: Way to go, ! TEAM ROCKET has taken off. My back's better too. Let's get out of here. My #MON are simply darling. Let me tell you how proud my darlings make me. What kinds of # BALLS do you have with you? There are no rules or regulations for practice matches. Just like in field battles, anything goes! Hands-free riding is considered cool on CYCLING ROAD. LAVENDER VOLUNTEER #MON HOUSE No. Only chosen trainers may train here. Please leave. Some #MON flee right away. Try catching them with KURT's FAST BALL. Whenever I find a WHT APRICORN, I take it to KURT. He turns it into a custom BALL. That's strange. I won before. You watch. I'm going to get a real CLEFAIRY as my friend. I'm the GRAPHIC ARTIST. Oh, you completed your #DEX? Want me to print out your DIPLOMA? You got a #MON at the LAB. What a waste. A wimp like you. Don't you get what I'm saying? Well, I too, have a good #MON. I'll show you what I mean! JASMINE is this city's GYM LEADER. I mean to bring her back with me. Nobody had better get in my way! Oh? You don't have a COIN CASE. Hi! How's my #- MON? I think I'm safe now, so may I have it back? You've kept me waiting! Here! Take this! Stop! I'm known as the TEAM ROCKET fortress! You're not taking another step! Ah-ha! I see! So… ERIKA: Oh! I concede defeat… You are remarkably strong… I shall give you RAINBOWBADGE… Um… I don't know how to say this, but good luck… Awaaah! CIANWOOD CITY #MON GYM LEADER: CHUCK His Roaring Fists Do the Talking S-strong! OK, then! Follow me! Hey, kid! I just had a double shot of espresso, and I am wired! I need to talk to someone, so you'll have to do! I might not look like much now, but I was an expert at catching #MON. Do you believe me? Where did #MON come from? What's so differ- ent between us? Step right up and take a look! What should I make my #MON hold? Maybe an item that increases ATTACK power… The keyword is guts! Those here are training night and day to become bird #MON masters. Come on! Oh, no! How could I lose? I'm No. 4! Getting tired? There's a notice here… PEWTER MUSEUM OF SCIENCE is closed for renovations… You seem to have a strong bond with your #MON too! I'm going to read your thoughts! How could I lose? You know, #MON eat BERRIES. Well, my #MON got healthier by eating a BERRY. Here. I'll share one with you! In the past, #- MON used to light the sea around OLIVINE at night. The LIGHTHOUSE was made in honor of those #MON. So it really was a #MON! The GYM BADGES are pretty. I collect them. Oh my, your pack looks so heavy! Oh! Do you happen to have something named EON MAIL? My daughter is after one. You can part with one, can't you? We're departing soon. Please get on board. NEW BARK TOWN The Town Where the Winds of a New Beginning Blow Why can't I ever beat you? Oh yeah, here you go. It's that gift I couldn't give you last time. You were in mortal danger, but you are protected now. Sailors are both kind and strong. How about you? Oh, no. You made WHITNEY cry. It's OK. She'll stop soon. She always cries when she loses. SPLASH? My BUTTERFREE came from my boyfriend overseas. It carried some MAIL from him. Want to know what it says? Let's see… Nope! It's a secret! You're studying the RUINS? I see a scientist in the making. Kyaaah! OK, OK. I'll tell you where he is. ROUTE 44 MAHOGANY TOWN - BLACKTHORN CITY MARY: It's just right for #MON that know normal- type moves. A vending machine! Here's the menu. My #MON knew moves I didn't know it had. That confounded me to no end! I get it. You can hear JOHTO's radio on the FAST SHIP. Wha-what? Was that man in black really part of TEAM ROCKET? I can't believe it! Welcome! Feel free to look around anywhere on this floor. I thought I could win. They built the new RADIO TOWER to replace the old, creaky one. Who are you? … You again? There's no need to panic. I don't bother with wimps like you. Speaking of weak- lings, the city's GYM LEADER isn't here. Supposedly taking care of a sick #MON at the LIGHTHOUSE. Humph! Boo-hoo! Just let sick #MON go! A #MON that can't battle is worthless! Why don't you go train at the LIGHTHOUSE? Who knows. It may make you a bit less weak! Give a BERRY to MILTANK? , will you take the EGG? Thanks to my stud- ies, I'm ready for any #MON! The road is closed until the problem at the POWER PLANT is solved. ILEX FOREST SHRINE… It's in honor of the forest's protector… I spent the spring with my #MON. Then summer, fall and winter… Then spring came again. We have lived together for a long time. …May I ask you to get some medicine for me? Please? I'm going to shop at the DEPT.STORE and then… You think I'm a baby? That's not fair! registered BUENA's number. All right, then! I've decided. I'm not leaving until my #MON get tougher! Music on the radio changes the moods of wild #MON. Hahaha! How boring. It was far too easy to take over this place! Come on, keep me amused! Wahahaha! You betcha! I'm JANINE! It's friendly to- ward you. It looks sort of happy. FUCHSIA CITY Behold! It's Passion Pink! I best go do my milkin'. Pardon? Who says an adult can't get into this? I'm going to be back every day to collect all the dolls! Yes, your trust is real! Thank you! The DIRECTOR of the RADIO STATION sure was happy. He said they're back on the air because the POWER PLANT is running smoothly again. Before opening the link, you must save your game. Do I know the password? Maybe. But no weakling's going to get it! Hey. I love strong #MON. I feed them PRO- TEIN to crank up their ATTACK. I'm on my way to WHIRL ISLANDS. I'm going explor- ing with friends. MEOWTH: Meowth… Do you know the RUINS OF ALPH? OK. Please wait at the North Gate for the announcement of the winners. There's supposed to be a big #- MON deep beneath WHIRL ISLANDS. I wonder what it could be? UNION CAVE AHEAD Are you going to battle the LEADER? Good luck to you. You'll need it. Oh… Well, if you change your mind, please help me. Yow! That's hot! EUSINE: Yo, . Wasn't that SUICUNE just now? I only caught a quick glimpse, but I thought I saw SUICUNE running on the waves. SUICUNE is beau- tiful and grand. And it races through towns and roads at simply awesome speeds. It's wonderful… I want to see SUICUNE up close… I've decided. I'll battle you as a trainer to earn SUICUNE's respect! Come on, . Let's battle now! FRIEDA: Isn't it Friday today? It's so boring when it's not! used the SQUIRTBOTTLE. …Tell me some- thing. Is it true that TEAM ROCKET has returned? What? You beat them? Hah! Quit lying. You're not joking? Then let's see how good you are. I'll read the instructions. Turn the #GEAR on and select the PHONE icon. Are you going to CIANWOOD? How about a quick battle first? ROUTE 35 My lack of train- ing is obvious… The door's closed… It needs a pass- word to open. Even though I was defeated, I won't change my course. I will continue battling until I stand above all trainers! Now, , move on and experience the true ferocity of the ELITE FOUR. Oh, dang! I lost that… BLAINE: Awesome. I've burned out… You've earned VOLCANOBADGE! Uurggh… We need the money, but selling SLOW- POKETAILS? It's tough being a ROCKET GRUNT! As #MON grow stronger, so does the trainer. No, wait. As the trainer grows stronger, so do the #MON. I am BRUNO of the ELITE FOUR. I always train to the extreme be- cause I believe in our potential. That is how we became strong. Can you withstand our power? Hm? I see no fear in you. You look determined. Per- fect for battle! Ready, ? You will bow down to our overwhelm- ing power! Hoo hah! IRON adds to your #MON's DEFENSE. I had you fooled… AMY: Hi! Are you challenging the LEADER? No way! …Aw, whatever. You would never be able to catch a legendary #MON anyway. I'm a sailor man! But I'm training #MON, so I can become the CHAMP! Nothing beats a battle when I'm on my break. Only employees are permitted to go upstairs. But since you came such a long way, have this neat little souvenir. If you don't want to battle, just avoid eye contact. Shaoooh! You came from JOHTO? I hear many rare #MON live over there. The food is good here, but GOLDEN- ROD has the best food anywhere. When the ice and snow melt, spring arrives. You and your #- MON will be to- gether for many years to come. Cherish your time together! Would you like to hear about the BATTLE TOWER? Which #MON should I work on? The MYSTERY GIFT option requires a Game Boy Color. CELADON MANSION ROUTE 37 #MON. Where do they come from? Where are they going? Why has no one ever witnessed a #MON's birth? I want to know! I will dedicate my life to the study of #MON! … It's a part of PROF.ELM's re- search papers. I always dance with my #MON. Of course, I also train them. Do you know what you just did? You've taken your first step into KANTO. Check your #- GEAR MAP and see. Clang! A can of @ A burn steadily consumes HP. It also reduces attack power. A burn lingers after battle. Use a BURN HEAL as the cure. ARTHUR: I'm ARTHUR of Thursday. I'm the second son out of seven children. All right. A hint! Change the order of switching. That'll change the ways the shutters open and close. Stumped by our in- visible floor? Defeat me if you want a hint! We're not open today. Oh, my! You're so strong! If you have a specific #MON that you want to raise, put it out first, then switch it right away. That's how to do it. I'm sorry--I for- got to thank you. This is CHARCOAL that I made. Fire-type #MON would be happy to hold that. We're not always evil. We just do whatever we like. SQUIRTLE, CHARMAN- DER and BULBASAUR… I think that's a well-balanced mix. What is this notice? Please battle only in the grass. NATIONAL PARK WARDEN'S OFFICE 's #GEAR can now double as a radio! . Is that right? I take quantity over quality! I'm happy when I'm full! #MON have many experiences in their lives, just like we do. I, too, have seen and suffered much in my life. Since I am your elder, let me show you what I mean. I have been with #MON since before you were born. I do not lose easily. I, PRYCE--the winter trainer-- shall demonstrate my power! I know something good! MOOMOO FARM's milk is famous for its flavor. I'm making my final preparations for the #MON LEAGUE. I think there's a move a #MON can use while it's frozen. Here's No. 3! I won't be easy. Hey, you're young and fit! Don't ride your #MON! Swim! There are many kinds of UNOWN, so we use them for our secret codes. People and #MON grow from their experiences. Don't get lazy and complacent. I can do only one haircut a day. Sorry, but I'm all done for today. You proved how tough you are… MAX REPEL keeps weak #MON away from you. It's the longest lasting of the REPEL sprays. Ah, hahah! We have ourselves a new angler! DAISY: Hi! Good timing. I'm about to have some tea. Would you like to join me? Oh, your #MON are a bit dirty. Would you like me to groom one? Did you hear about the accident at the POWER PLANT? It's located in the East, close to LAVENDER TOWN. SURF is no longer the only HM move you use in water. I can't manage a smile either… There! All done! MEOWTH: Meow! You can find lots of #MON in the trees of JOHTO! … What? ? …No, I won't battle you now… My #MON aren't ready to beat you. I can't push them too hard now. I have to be dis- ciplined to become the greatest #- MON trainer… Oh! The eight BADGES of JOHTO! Please, go right on through! I wonder how many kinds of #MON there are in the world. Three years ago, PROF.OAK said that there were 150 different kinds. A can of soda… Someone must be coming back… Huh? It's empty! My boyfriend's weak, so I can't rely on him. They ditched this project before they finished. I'm searching for leftover loot. ZUBAT's SUPERSONIC keeps confusing my #MON. I'm seriously upset about that! You've got no room for your prize. Make room and come back right away. They hold practice battles downstairs here. I would love to see how well a trainer from JOHTO battles. Why is this #- MON so special? It doesn't have any MAIL. ELM: I think that's a great #MON too! Doesn't everyone wish to someday be a king? High places--I do love them so! I'd say the only thing that loves heights as much as me is smoke! Here you go! It's a PERSIAN statue… Its eyes are oddly shiny. I'll head back to BLACKTHORN's ICE PATH and train some more. Who's there? Leave me and my #MON alone! Do my #MON think I'm cute? OLIVINE CAFE's menu is chock full of hearty fare for beefy SAILORS! Where in the world is VIRIDIAN's GYM LEADER? I wanted to challenge him. I put a different flower in my bar- rette every month. CYCLING ROAD is a quick shortcut to CELADON. KURT: You have an APRICORN for me? Fine! I'll turn it into a BALL. Your soul has more power than mine! Reckless driving causes accidents! Take it easy! Remember me from the HIDEOUT in MAHOGANY TOWN? I lost then, but I won't this time. Becoming a good trainer is really tough. I'm going to bat- tle other people to get better. Thanks for showing me so many cute #MON. I really enjoyed myself. I'm glad I've lived such a long life. I couldn't find the KARATE KING in JOHTO. He's supposed to be training in a cave somewhere. It's packed with foreign magazines. Can't even read their titles… You'll run into many trainers on the way to CERU- LEAN's CAPE. They want to see how they stack up against other trainers. Oh, rats! We're going to protect ERIKA! ROUTE 9 CERULEAN CITY - ROCK TUNNEL Wow. That's a cool BICYCLE! You rotten little pest! Nice battle! Keep it up, and you'll be the CHAMP in no time at all! I couldn't win at the slots, and I blew it on card flipping… I got so furious, I tossed out my COIN CASE in the UNDERGROUND. What are #MON to you? We're TEAM ROCKET, the exploiters of #MON! We love being evil! Scared? gave a BERRY to MILTANK. FALKNER's skills are for real! Don't get cocky just because you beat me! NORTH TO LAVENDER TOWN WEST TO FUCHSIA CITY The tower that used to be here… My grandma told me it used to be much taller. Don't talk to me! You'll break my concentration! KATE: You sure were mean to my little sisters! I lost the battle, but my #MON win the prize for being most lovely. Nope, none of your ID numbers match. Do you know LILY? She's a hot DJ in KANTO. Hey, kid. Could I get you to look for my buddy? He's goofing off somewhere, that lazy bum! I want to go find him, but I'm on duty right now. My PHANPY is the cutest in the world. Ooh, you've matched the last two numbers. You've won third prize, a PP UP. TRAINER TIPS #MON stats vary--even within the same species. Their stats may be similar at first. However, differ- ences will become pronounced as the #MON grow. Three big #MON ran off in differ- ent directions. What were they? The trainers of this GYM use rock- type #MON. The rock-type has high DEFENSE. Battles could end up going a long time. Are you ready for this? Hm… Good to see you here. No need to explain why you came. CLAIR sent you here, didn't she? That girl is a handful… I am sorry, but I must test you. Not to worry, you are to answer only a few questions. Ready? You don't have enough coins. VIRIDIAN is the town closest to INDIGO PLATEAU. They built this place because so many trainers pass through on their way up to INDIGO PLATEAU. The secret behind PRYCE's power… He meditates under a waterfall daily to strengthen his mind and body. …I hear some- thing! Check out my parallel turn! The CAPE in the north is a good place for dates. Girls like it! Take over the RADIO TOWER… What? It's none of your business! …sigh… That stolen #MON. I wonder how it's doing. They say a #MON raised by a bad person turns bad itself. You like #MON, don't you? Me too! Whoa, wait. You can't carry any more #MON. What was I going to do? ELM: , I'll call you if any- thing comes up. A #MON you get in a trade grows quickly. But if you don't have the right GYM BADGE, they may disobey you. My daughter is adamant about becoming PROF. ELM's assistant. She really loves #MON! But then, so do I! HISTORY OF ECRUTEAK Want to read it? So this is the RADIO TOWER… #GEAR becomes more useful as you add CARDS. I wish you luck on your journey! STORMBADGE makes all #MON up to L70 obey, even traded ones. It also lets your #MON use FLY when you're not in a battle. Here, take this too! Ooh, la la! Very indeed nice! I'm a huge fan of CERULEAN GYM's MISTY. Whew, I'm tired. I sometimes come up to the rooftop to take a break from shopping. In ECRUTEAK, there were two towers. Each tower was the roost of powerful flying #MON. But one of the towers burned to the ground. The two #MON haven't been seen since… Keep reading? Do you consider type alignments in battle? If you know your type advantages, you'll do better in battle. ZEPHYRBADGE raises the attack power of #MON. It also enables #MON to use FLASH, if they have it, anytime. Here--take this too. JASMINE: … This #MON always kept the sea lit at night. …But it suddenly got sick… It's gasping for air… …I understand that there is a wonderful PHARMACY in CIANWOOD… But that's across the sea… And I can't leave AMPHY unattended… It's a CLEFAIRY! Huh? Oh, right. It's a CLEFAIRY # DOLL. ROUTE 2 VIRIDIAN CITY - PEWTER CITY #MON change? I would be shocked if one did that! Have you checked out KANTO's radio programs? We get a good variety here. I don't have any #MON left… When is the next Bug-Catching Con- test going to be? Hmmm… The odds are surely better for PIKACHU's line, but… What to do? When I grow up, I'm going to help my dad! I'm going to be a great #MON professor! It's dangerous to go out without a #MON! Wild #MON jump out of the grass on the way to the next town. The TEAM ROCKET boss has locked himself in. But the DIRECTOR can open it. He's up on the fifth floor. Please save him! The SAFARI ZONE is closed… It's sad, considering it's FUCHSIA's main attraction. If you use FLY, you can get back to OLIVINE in- stantly. The TIN TOWER ahead is a nine- tier tower of divine beauty. It soothes the soul of all who see it. What do you think? My #MON are beautiful, yes? DIGLETT: Dug dug. MORTY, the GYM LEADER, is absent. Sorry, but you'll have to leave. Hohohoho. What? This is a big battle! Leave me alone! We'll tell on you. MASTER will be angry with you. WILLIAM: I'm not concerned about winning. I'm just looking for rare #MON. I taught MEOWTH moves for taking on any type… We'll try not to disturb anyone from now on… Blown away! Thanks, kid! You made the delivery for me! Here's something for your trouble! I heard about a cute #MON that has six tails. I would love to hug a cute #MON like that. Do you honestly believe you can stop TEAM ROCKET? Hello. I'm sorry, but we're not offering any tours today. Hey! When you bat- tle, do you use X SPECIAL? It's awesome. It really jacks up SPECIAL ATTACK! Hey there! I am the super MUSIC DIRECTOR! Huh? Your #GEAR can't tune into my music programs. How unfortunate! If you get an EXPN CARD upgrade, you can tune in. You'd better get one! Are you ? I work as PROF. OAK's AIDE. I had no idea that you were out here. PROF.OAK's LAB is nearby in PALLET TOWN. For Victory Seekers 3F BATTLE COLLECTION Oh, dear. Sorry, but you got it wrong. Please try again! Oops, not enough money. While visiting MAHOGANY TOWN, try a RAGECANDYBAR! The MAGNET TRAIN is a super-modern rail liner that uses electricity and magnets to attain incredible speed. However, if there isn't any elec- tricity… Ohh… I lost… MILTANK became a little healthier! The way the KIMONO GIRLS dance is marvelous. Just like the way they use their #MON. ROUTE 1 PALLET TOWN - VIRIDIAN CITY CLAIR: What's the matter? Aren't you going on to the #MON LEAGUE? Do you know how to get there? From here, go to NEW BARK TOWN. Then SURF east to #MON LEAGUE. The route there is very tough. Don't you dare lose at the #- MON LEAGUE! If you do, I'll feel even worse about having lost to you! Give it everything you've got. The world of #MON is deep. There are still lots of things we don't know. But I know more than you do! BATTLE TOWER is a facility made for #MON battles. Countless #MON trainers gather from all over to hold battles in specially designed BATTLE ROOMS. There are many BATTLE ROOMS in the BATTLE TOWER. Each ROOM holds seven trainers. Beat them all, and win a prize. To interrupt a session, you must SAVE. If not, you won't be able to resume your ROOM challenge. Hm… You've got many GYM BADGES. No! Unbelievable! Fufufu! I'm JANINE, the GYM LEADER! No, I'm not! Gotcha, sucker! WESLEY: BLACKBELT beefs up the power of fighting moves. Let's battle. I won't lose! I am the FISHING DUDE, the elder of the FISHING BROS. Have you met the FISHING GURU at LAKE OF RAGE? He dreams about seeing the world's greatest MAGIKARP. If you don't mind, could you show him any MAGIKARP you catch? Who knows, you may catch the MAGIKARP of his dreams. … Didn't I tell you that I was going to destroy TEAM ROCKET? …Tell me, who was the guy in the cape who used dragon #MON? My #MON were no match at all. I don't care that I lost. I can beat him by getting stronger #MON. It's what he said that bothers me… He told me that I don't love and trust my #MON enough. I'm furious that I lost to a bleeding heart like him. …Humph! I don't have the time for the likes of you! CHUCK, the GYM LEADER, spars with his fighting #- MON. Thanks for visiting! Is the DIRECTOR safe? Hm? That SCALE! What's that? A red GYARADOS? That's rare! I, I want it… , would you care to trade it? I can offer this EXP.SHARE I got from PROF.OAK. If it doesn't come to trust you some more, it could be tough going. Trust is the tie that binds #MON and trainers. I wear shorts the whole year round. That's my fashion policy. I was humiliated in front of my girlfriend… I like thinking here. 1F RECEPTION 2F SALES 3F PERSONNEL 4F PRODUCTION 5F DIRECTOR'S OFFICE Nope! Nothing here but trash. Hi. Welcome to our TRAINING HALL. You may battle a trainer once per day. MARY: Oh, no! It's all over! PROF.OAK, if you weren't so slow… Have you seen that wiggly tree that's growing on ROUTE 36? My little sister got all excited and went to see it… I'm worried… Isn't it dangerous? #MON do become stronger when they evolve, but they also learn moves more slowly. Technology is incredible! You can now trade #MON across time like e-mail. What? You little whelp! If I were just a bit younger, I'd show you a thing or two. Humph! Hey, you're a #MON trainer? If you beat the GYM LEADER here, you'll be ready for prime time! The FAST SHIP will sail next Sunday. I was just point- ing out… I don't care if you're lost. You show up here, you're nothing but a victim! I was whipped… That's quite some building, eh? It's KANTO's RADIO TOWER. No! Forgive me, GIOVANNI! VIOLET CITY #MON GYM LEADER: FALKNER The Elegant Master of Flying #MON WAHAHAH! I enjoyed battling you! But a loss is a loss! From now on, I'm going to train 24 hours a day! My daughter is so self-centered… She only has a few friends. I'm going to train even harder. After all, I'm trying to become a GYM LEADER. On weekends, you can hear strange roars from deep in the cave. Hey! I am the KARATE KING! I train alone here in the dark! You! Battle with me! Hwaaarggh! When I told my sis about the jiggly tree, she said it's dangerous. If I beat WHITNEY, I wonder if she'll lend me her water bottle… ANNE: ANN and I are in this to- gether! I was having a nice chat too. Tweet! I'm second. Now it's serious! Whoops! Wh-what is that? I've never seen one before. It looks a lot like a # BALL, but it appears to be something else. Let me check it for you. POLIWRATH: Croak! #GEAR can store up to ten phone numbers. It's hard to de- cide which numbers to keep. Why does it end this way? CERULEAN CAPE AHEAD If asleep, your #MON can't make a move. A sleeping #MON doesn't wake up after battle. Wake it up with an AWAKENING. May I see your S.S.TICKET? Losing isn't fun at all… CLAIR… Reflect upon what it is that you lack and this child has. Here, this is the RISINGBADGE… Hurry up! Take it! received ODD EGG! This place has a mystical quality to it. It feels sort of ethereal even. There's no more room for stuff. I had lots of fun playing! #MON and their trainer become powerful through constant battling. Ah, so it is you who claim to have seen SUICUNE, ENTEI and RAIKOU while they slept? Unbelievable! Legend has it that they can't be seen while they sleep… Darn. I thought I could win. Please do come again! Let me see what your #MON are capable of. Oh yikes, I lost! What was it you said? If I win, you have to help me with my suntan lotion! GAME FREAK MEETING ROOM Sorry! It's all my fault! 's #GEAR now has a MAP! JANINE: You're a tough one. You definitely won… Here's SOULBADGE. Take it. A SLOWPOKE with its TAIL cut off… KURT: I'm working! Don't bother me! Hi, ! My husband's always so busy--I hope he's OK. When he's caught up in his #MON research, he even forgets to eat. MT.MOON SQUARE Just go up the stairs. A voyage is best for getting over a broken heart. But a FAST SHIP trip is too short for grieving. KURT: I make BALLS from APRICORNS. Collect them from trees and bring 'em to me. I'll make BALLS out of them. TM29 is PSYCHIC. It may lower the target's SPCL.DEF. It is my head that is bright! Thank you! You're my hero! This is a token of my appreciation. EUSINE: My name's EUSINE. I'm on the trail of a #MON named SUICUNE. And you are…? ? Glad to meet you! I heard rumors that SUICUNE is in this BURNED TOWER, so I came to look. But where exactly could it be? Did you meet the #MANIAC? He's always brag- ging about his rare #MON. Hmmm. This is disappointing. MAY: You want to see the LEADER? We come first! There's graffiti on the wall… added a moustache! …Hmmm… I was told to give you this if I saw you! Your friend is ready. MILTANK: …Moo… At night, STARYU gather near the water's surface. Give away an EON MAIL? But you can't use FLY without this city's GYM BADGE. If you beat the GYM LEADER here, come see me. I'll have a nice gift for you. My grandpa is at my brother BILL's on CERULEAN CAPE. MISTY is about the only person in town who can beat the trainers at CERULEAN's CAPE. Do you want to apprentice as a charcoal maker with me? You'll be first- rate in ten years! There we go! All done! I could beat you at swimming… One, two, three… Muahahaha, what a great haul! I'm done! Go ahead and catch as many as you can, kid! AMY & MAY: Oh, double goodness! Yowza! Total distortion! Swimming? I'm lousy at it. I'm just splashing around in these shallow waters. Please ensure that your phone and MOBILE ADAPTER are properly linked. Please make sure the wireless phone signal is strong. Don't touch or hang up the phone while linking. The POWER PLANT's MANAGER is up ahead. But since someone wrecked the gener- ator, he's been both sad and furious… I wish you would have lost for me… For #MON, hap- piness is being with a person who treats them well. Ooh, your #MON have potential. PLAINBADGE lets your #MON use STRENGTH outside of battle. It also boosts your #MON's SPEED. Oh, you can have this too! DARK CAVE… If #MON could light it up, I'd explore it. MARY: Oh! You're my little savior! Will you take this as my thanks? I came to explore ROCK TUNNEL. Wahahah! You're a feisty one! It's the missing #MON! Oh, a kid? I don't really like this, but eliminate you I must. Wins and losses, I experienced both. Yo, CHAMP in making! Whoops! Take a good look around you. The trainers all look like the LEADER, JANINE. Which of them is the real JANINE? You seem to be good at #MON. If you are, how about giving me some advice? She uses the names of her favorite things to eat. For the nicknames she gives to her #MON, I mean. I'm going to try to be the best with my favorites. I'm not using the same tough #MON as everyone else. Do you like my dancing? I'm good at #MON too. Whoa, whoa. You're overwhelming! Some #MON can only be seen in the PARK. Don't let my ele- gant swimming un- nerve you. received @ Oh, a battle? That's kind of scary, but OK! TRAINER TIPS GUARD SPEC. protects #MON against SPECIAL attacks such as fire and water. Get your items at CELADON DEPT. STORE! I fish until I can't anymore. I also battle until I drop. That's my relationship with my #MON. Though I read you, I still lost… Fine! Teach you, I will! If #MON come out in battle even briefly, some EXP. Points it gets. At top of list put weak #MON. Switch in battle quick! This way, weak #MON strong become! inserted the CARD KEY. I get it… NICK: Well done! I'm going to raise my #MON better. Hey, you! Trainer from JOHTO! BROCK is tough. He'll punish you if you don't take him seriously. How did you get this far? I guess it can't be helped. I'll dispose of you. BILL: I knew you'd come through! Way to go! You're the real deal! OK, I'm counting on you. Take good care of it! It itches and tickles a bit when I wear shorts in the grass. Many cities in JOHTO have long histories. I'd love to visit! Argh! You're too strong! VERMILION CITY #MON GYM LEADER: LT.SURGE The Lightning American She'll be coming 'round MT.SILVER when she comes… MT.SILVER is in JOHTO, right? We stashed the real DIRECTOR in the UNDERGROUND WAREHOUSE. It's at the far end of the UNDER- GROUND. But I doubt you'll get that far. JENN: Sunlight makes your body stronger. We bake lots of goodies and share them all around. They're delicious! …Darn… I still can't win… I… I have to think more about my #MON… Humph! Try not to lose! Oh, by the way, . Have you caught the legendary #MON RAIKOU and ENTEI? Okay… If you catch even one, I hope that you'll inform me. I'm counting on you, ! I see… Your journey has taken you to far- away places. And you have wit- nessed much more than I. I envy you for that… Oops, your PACK is stuffed full. Please make room and come back. OK. Please wait here for the announcement of the winners. That there's SNORE. It's a rare move that only works while the #MON is asleep. You best think how you ought to use it, hon. Whew! Thanks for coming along. Keeping that lit- tle girl amused was exhausting. You fixed our MILTANK, hon. Now it gives MOOMOO MILK again. Here's somethin' fer your trouble. A little girl? I may have seen her go by here. I think this slot machine will pay out… The odds vary among machines. Right. Anybody would be worried if his or her own #MON were hurt. I'll pray for the #MON here, so JASMINE can come back to the GYM. Hey there! I am the super MUSIC DIRECTOR! I'm responsible for the gorgeous melodies that go out over the air. Don't be square. Grab your music off the air! Do I have to have more #MON in order to battle better? No! I'm sticking with this one no matter what! received DRATINI! NIDORAN: Kya kyaoo! Oh… It's something I enjoy doing… Fine. Come see me when you like. ? Here's the prize we were holding for you. This DEPT.STORE is part of the same chain as the one in GOLDENROD CITY. They were both renovated at the same time. BATTLE TOWER AHEAD Opening Now! Yes, yes. Just as I thought! Here, fishing fan! Take this--it's a SUPER ROD. It was like having to battle LANCE. F-forgive me! CLAIR! This child is impeccable, in skill and spirit! Admit defeat and confer the RISING- BADGE! …Or must I inform LANCE of this? BILL: Hi, ! Do us a favor and take this EEVEE. It came over when I was adjusting the TIME CAPSULE. Someone has to take care of it, but I don't like being outside. Can I count on you to play with it, ? Before entering the BATTLE ROOM, your progress will be saved. How many RODS do you have? Different RODS catch different #MON. BLUE: … All right, I was wrong. You're the real deal. You are a good trainer. But I'm going to beat you someday. Don't you forget it! This doesn't seem to work yet. How would you like to have this tasty, nutritious SLOWPOKETAIL? For you right now, just ¥1,000,000! You'll want this! I got my ABRA at the GAME CORNER. Now it's my best partner. Ah! You have proven your worth! There's a notice here… MT.MOON GIFT SHOP NOW OPEN! OAK: Wow! That's excellent! You collected the BADGES of GYMS in KANTO. Well done! I was right in my assessment of you. Tell you what, . I'll make arrangements so that you can go to MT.SILVER. MT.SILVER is a big mountain that is home to many wild #MON. It's too dangerous for your average trainer, so it's off limits. But we can make an exception in your case, . Go up to INDIGO PLATEAU. You can reach MT.SILVER from there. Why did the shut- ter open? Did you have something to do with this? received SOULBADGE. Since you've come this far, you must be good. I'm going to give this battle every- thing I've got! I'm raising my #MON. Want to battle with me? OAK: Aha! So you're ! I'm OAK! A #MON researcher. I was just visit- ing my old friend MR.#MON. I heard you were running an errand for PROF.ELM, so I waited here. Oh! What's this? A rare #MON! Let's see… Hm, I see! I understand why PROF.ELM gave you a #MON for this errand. To researchers like PROF.ELM and I, #MON are our friends. He saw that you would treat your #MON with love and care. …Ah! You seem to be dependable. How would you like to help me out? See? This is the latest version of #DEX. It automatically records data on #MON you've seen or caught. It's a hi-tech encyclopedia! …What are you staring at? DON: I'm going to win! Don't bother me. LANCE: It's been a long time since I last came here. This is where we honor the LEAGUE CHAMPIONS for all eternity. Their courageous #MON are also inducted. Here today, we witnessed the rise of a new LEAGUE CHAMPION--a trainer who feels compassion for, and trust toward, all #MON. A trainer who succeeded through perseverance and determination. The new LEAGUE CHAMPION who has all the makings of greatness! , allow me to register you and your partners as CHAMPIONS! ? I thought the EGG hatched. Where is the #MON? flashed the S.S.TICKET. That's it. Thank you! You can't link to the past here. The trainers here have secret mo- tives. If you win, they may tell you some deep secrets about ECRUTEAK. Don't sneak up on me like that! You frightened a #MON away! PRYCE is a veteran who has trained #MON for some 50 years. He's said to be good at freezing opponents with ice-type moves. That means you should melt him with your burning ambition! looks a little happier. I guess it's im- possible to swim all the way to JOHTO. Whew… Good battle. Humph. That was a waste of time. Oh, dear. You've found me. Please don't tell anyone about me. I'll give you this for keeping my secret. Please? ROUTE 32 VIOLET CITY - AZALEA TOWN MR.#MON's house? It's a bit farther ahead. Being a sailor, I have to do phys- ical labor. It's exhausting! We couldn't win… ELM: Don't give up! I'll call if I learn anything about that EGG! That odd tree dis- appeared without a trace. Oh! That tree was really a #MON? Hold it right there! It's a grueling task, not being able to use items in battle. Making your #MON hold items is the key to winning battles. I was done in! SLOWPOKE: … SUNNY: My sisters and brothers are MONICA, TUSCANY, WESLEY, ARTHUR, FRIEDA and SANTOS. They're all older than me! Hey, hey! Keep out of our way! I'm going to prac- tice at the DANCE THEATER. Care to join me? I traded my best #MON to the guy beside me. Hyuck-hyuck-hyuck! That was a blast! I'll remember you! DRAGON SHRINE A shrine honoring the dragon #MON said to have lived in DRAGON'S DEN. HO-OH appears to have descended upon this, the TIN TOWER! I just got back to OLIVINE. So how about a #MON battle? BUENA: Tune in to my PASSWORD SHOW! ELM: , this is terrible… Oh, yes, what was MR.#MON's big discovery? , isn't it? A brat like you won't appreciate the magnificence of TEAM ROCKET. That's too bad. I really admire your power. I just got my #MON back from DAY-CARE. Let's see how much stronger it got! Yo, ! I hear PROF.ELM discovered some new #MON. JASMINE: …Will that medicine cure AMPHY? You're stronger than you look. I'm going to catch more #MON in the grass. TUSCANY: Wouldn't you agree that it is most adorable? It strengthens normal-type moves. I am certain it will be of use. 1F SERVICE COUNTER 2F TRAINER'S MARKET 3F BATTLE COLLECTION 4F MEDICINE BOX 5F TM CORNER 6F TRANQUIL SQUARE ROOFTOP LOOKOUT …It's over. But it's an odd feeling. I'm not angry that I lost. In fact, I feel happy. Happy that I witnessed the rise of a great new CHAMPION! I am meditating… received 20 PARK BALLS. Oh, dear… Pleased to meet you. Please take a souvenir. What are JOHTO's #MON CENTERS like? …Oh, I see. So they're not much different from the ones in KANTO. I can go to JOHTO without worrying, then! Hm! Look at all those serious- looking trainers streaming in. What? What? There are eight GYMS in KANTO. That big building is VERMILION's #MON GYM. Lassie, if you can defeat all the KIMONO GIRLS, I'll give you a gift. Looking at the ground while I was walking made me dizzy. I hate to admit it, but you win. GOLDENROD CITY The Festive City of Opulent Charm RISINGBADGE will enable your #MON to use the move for climbing waterfalls. Also, all #MON will recognize you as a trainer and obey your every command without question. Thanks, ! You're a great help! You took on one more battle than you expected, but you won anyway.

There's no way I'm going to lose! ROUTE 15 FUCHSIA CITY - LAVENDER TOWN On sunny days, I think that the kids would rather be playing in the schoolyard than studying in class. Darn! I was stand- ing guard up top when some old coot yelled at me. He startled me so much that I fell down here. I think I'll vent my anger by taking it out on you! Humph. Are you happy you won? The slot machines are all state of the art. It's a photo of people fishing… They're having a great time… Ah, child. Have you learned to dance like the KIMONO GIRLS? If you go to their DANCE THEATER, an odd old man will give you something nice, I hear. Hm? You're good, aren't you? I'm begging you to help. There's no telling what they'll do if they control the transmitter. They may even be able to control #MON using a special signal! You're the only one I can call on. Please save the RADIO TOWER… And all the #- MON nationwide! Going to new, un- known places and seeing new people… Those are the joys of travel. , right? Some guy wearing glasses was look- ing for you. See for yourself. He's waiting for you at the #MON CENTER. Ah, I am impressed by your prowess. With your strong will, I know you will overcome all life's obstacles. You are worthy of this BADGE! We've finally taken over the RADIO TOWER! Now everyone will get to experience the true terror of TEAM ROCKET! We'll show you how scary we are! They're holding an eating contest at the restaurant. Just watching them go at it makes me feel bloated… Good! Teach you, I will! In battle, #MON top on list jump out first! Change order in list, make battle easy, maybe! More from me you want to hear? I can do so much with my #MON-- it's super-fun! Cancel your BATTLE ROOM challenge? I keep losing in battles, and my #MON end up fainting… Maybe that's why my #MON don't like me much… Gahahaha! The coins just keep popping out! Hm? What, kid? You want to play? I'll share my luck with you! My friend keeps a MARILL! I find them very endearing. Oh, I wish for a MARILL of my own… The PROF's #MON TALK radio program isn't aired here in KANTO. It's a shame--I'd like to hear it. CLAIR appears to have learned an invaluable lesson from you. I thank you as her grandfather. They're so cool, but most girls don't like bug #MON. I don't know why… It's a powerful painting of a BELLSPROUT. Good! Savor it! DAISY: I always have tea around this time. Come join me. Don't say a thing! Let me guess what you're thinking. Mmmmmmm… I got it! You're on the #MON LEAGUE challenge! A while back, this karate dude wanted to battle. He was ridiculously good. He just thrashed us silly. He went in deeper saying it was for his training. I wonder how he is? … Whew… Learn to stay out of my way… Just as I thought… You're tough! Is that how you do it? Do you put a lot of thought into naming your #MON? Giving them good nicknames adds to the fun of trading with others. My husband was once known as a #MANIAC. BILL must have taken after his father. A momentous event has occurred. I beg your pardon, but I must ask you to leave. Ah! The sound of that CLEAR BELL! It… It's sublime! I've never heard so beautiful a sound before! That bell's chime is indicative of the bearer's soul. You… You may be able to make it through TIN TOWER. Please, do go on. I wanted to win! Once while I was battling, my #MON couldn't make any moves. The POWER POINTS, or PP, of its moves were all gone. VIRIDIAN CITY #MON GYM LEADER: … The rest of the text is illegible… There's a notice here… Stamp out thievery and make the city a friendlier, more cheerful place! CERULEAN POLICE RATTEY: Kikiii! There's a notice here… CINNABAR GYM has relocated to SEA- FOAM ISLANDS. BLAINE The MAGNET TRAIN consumes a lot of electricity. It can't move if the new generator isn't operating. OK. We hope you'll take part in the future. I'm printing out my #DEX. You can also print out stuff like MAIL and your PC BOXES. …You have strayed far… Here I have medi- tated. Inside me, a new power has been awakened. Let me share my power with your #MON. Take this, child. According to legend… When the souls of #MON and humans commune, from the heavens descends a #MON of rainbow colors… Could it mean the legendary #MON are testing us humans? There are two kinds of people. Those who have style, and those who don't. What kind of person are you? Oh, that's too bad. I thought it would be a great memento… Be prepared for anything! Let me see if your #MON have been raised properly! If we turn up the power of our radio signal for broad- cast nationwide… The very thought excites me! BATTLE TOWER rules are written here. Read the rules? Oh, no, no… That's the same as being robbed. Aren't the TWINS adorable? JASMINE's pretty too. Oh, I love them! KATE: You're too strong. I didn't stand a chance. Here. You deserve this. No! There are bet- ter trainers… They're fresh out of # BALLS! When will they get more of them? Whew… How many times have I gone back and forth between KANTO and JOHTO? : Hi. Did you really lose your # DOLL? : You'll really give me a rail PASS if I find it for you? : Sure, I'll look for it! You think you lost it when you were in VERMILION? What? I lost? Why would they want to take over the RADIO TOWER? This POWER PLANT had been abandoned in the past. We got it back up and running to provide power to the MAGNET TRAIN. WESLEY: Since you found me, you must have met my broth- ers and sisters. Or did you just get lucky? BLACKTHORN CITY #MON GYM LEADER: CLAIR The Blessed User of Dragon #MON People shouldn't leave any litter behind. LANCE: That odd signal has finally stopped. The LAKE should be back to normal. You're the hero! Let me thank you on behalf of all the #MON. Oh, yes. You should take this. I found it here, but I don't have any need for it. MAGIKARP have returned to LAKE OF RAGE. That should be good news for the anglers there. …I don't under- stand… Is what that LANCE guy said true? That I don't treat #MON properly? Love… Trust… Are they really what I lack? Are they keeping me from winning? I… I just don't understand. But it's not going to end here. Not now. Not because of this. I won't give up my dream of becoming the world's best #MON trainer! JIGGLYPUFF: Puu pupuu. Hahah! The MAGI- KARP are biting! Someone left their drink. It smells sweet. CAPTAIN, play with me, please? I'm bored! I want to play more! Practice battles are held in the TRAINING HALL downstairs. Skilled trainers are invited to participate. Every Friday, you can hear #MON roars from deep inside the cave. GYM BADGES give you advantages in battles. …Whew. You have become truly powerful, . Your #MON have responded to your strong and up- standing nature. As a trainer, you will continue to grow strong with your #MON. I came all the way here to conduct my #MON research. Let me demonstrate my findings in a real battle! …What's this? A strategy memo? This writing looks like ONIX tracks… It's completely illegible… I came to OLIVINE by ship to see the sights and soak up the atmosphere. Being a port, it feels so different from a big city. BLAINE: Waaah! My GYM in CINNABAR burned down. My fire-breathing #MON and I are homeless because of the volcano. Waaah! But I'm back in business as a GYM LEADER here in this cave. If you can beat me, I'll give you a BADGE. Ha! You'd better have BURN HEAL! Fufufufu… I'm sorry to dis- appoint you… I'm only joking! I'm the real deal! JANINE of FUCHSIA GYM, that's me! MACHOP: Guooh gogogoh! I'm so bored. Want to battle? Where have all the SLOWPOKE gone? Are they out play- ing somewhere? 2F SALES Don't do anything too dangerous! Whoa! Danger, man. obtained a RED SCALE. To get to #MON LEAGUE, you have to get through VICTORY ROAD. But VICTORY ROAD is tough. Practically nobody goes there! Yikes! Sorry! Ah! Your #MON trusts you very much. It's nice to see a good trainer. Here. A gift for your journey. CYCLING ROAD starts here. It's all downhill, so it's totally exhilarating. It's a great sort of feeling that you can't get from a ship or train. recorded BILL's number. Oh, hey! I got an e-mail! Hm… Uh-huh… Okay… I feel lousy over losing! Darn it! I hate useless #MON! , was it? I heard you enter- tained my grand- daughter. I want to thank you for that. I'm really good at both fishing and #MON. I'm not about to lose to any kid! The ship departs from OLIVINE CITY. But you knew that already, . After all, you've traveled all over with your #MON. Give my regards to PROF.OAK in KANTO! PALLET TOWN A Tranquil Setting of Peace & Purity DON: Wow, you beat me. You're pretty good. Please go right through. You may begin right away. 5F STUDIO 1 BROCK: , thanks. I enjoyed battling you, even though I am a bit upset. That BOULDERBADGE will make your #MON even more powerful. You have #MON that know the HM move FLY, don't you? I envy you. Wow, your #GEAR is impressive! Did your mom get it for you? Hehehe, I snuck out from work. I can't bail out until I've won! I have to win it all. That I must! Up top is a #- MON that keeps the LIGHTHOUSE lit. But I hear that it's sick now and can't be cured by ordinary medicine. Full Selection of #MON Goods! GOLDENROD CITY DEPT.STORE A #MON holding a BERRY will heal itself in battle. Many other items can be held by #MON… It sure is tough taking notes… SILPH CO. OFFICE BUILDING KURT'S HOUSE KIPP: Could you give me some tips? I want to study your style. It will cost you 4000 coins. Okay? Sorry, Mom! I was beaten! Glug… Sometimes, a healthy #MON may be unable to use its moves. If that happens, heal it at a #- MON CENTER or use an item. The passengers are all trainers. They're all itch- ing to battle in their cabins. The power of all those you defeated comes to me! Oh, you are a cute little trainer! I like you, but I won't hold back! ELM: You'll take CYNDAQUIL, the fire #MON? SAFFRON CITY MAGNET TRAIN STATION TRAINER TIPS Look! Right there, at the left side of the post. Sayonara! I just learned that in my Japanese class. When I was still in the army, LT. SURGE saved my life. The generator's running again! I am KAREN of the ELITE FOUR. You're ? How amusing. I love dark-type #MON. I find their wild, tough image to be so appealing. And they're so strong. Think you can take them? Just try to entertain me. Let's go. On Sundays, a lady comes to check out #MON. She even gives away TMs! An unknown child wandering here? Who are you? BUENA: Hi! Did you tune in to my radio show? Do you remember today's password? COPYCAT: You bet! It's a scream! I can see it… Everything to see about you… We stand guard in this tower. Here, we express our gratitude to honor all #MON. We'll show you #MON moves that ERIKA taught us! Huh? My own eyes deceived me? I guess I should teach them better moves… Hi, I'm BILL. And who are you? Hmm, , huh? You've come at the right time. You can't record any more numbers. The waves are wild here. They tire you out while you swim. SAVE and end the session? Heh, only the boss knows the password for that door. Where's the boss? Who knows? Go look for yourself. Oh, bleah! PIKACHU is an evolved #MON. I was amazed by PROF.ELM's find- ings. He's so famous for his research on #MON evolution. …sigh… I wish I could be a researcher like him… Yo! CHAMP in making! You lucked out this time. LT.SURGE is very cautious. He has traps set all over the GYM. But--he-heh--the traps aren't active right now. You'll have no problem getting to LT.SURGE. See those ledges? It's scary to jump off them. But you can go to NEW BARK without walking through the grass. There's no GREAT BALL here. # BALLS will have to do. I wish KURT would make me some of his custom BALLS. I'm the last in line, but I tell you, I'm tough! I'd be strong if only I could tell what my opponent was thinking. There is a lot to learn. For example… There are 50 kinds of TMs. Traded #MON level up faster. I'm worried about sunburn… Hoo, you showed me how tough you are. As always, that was one heck of a great battle! It's adorable! You should teach it good TM moves. OK, which #MON should I do? Hi there! Did you visit SPROUT TOWER? You really are concerned… I listened to the radio while I was at the RUINS. I heard a strange broadcast there. How could you do this to me? The person who gets the strong- est bug #MON is the winner. You have 20 minutes. If you run out of PARK BALLS, you're done. You can keep the last #MON you catch as your own. Go out and catch the strongest bug #MON you can find! I battled the trainers on the road. My #MON lost. They're a mess! I must take them to a #MON CENTER. I've seen you a couple times. How many #MON have you caught? Would you like me to show you how to catch #MON? I know my #MON type alignments. But I only use one type of #MON. This is pathetic, losing to some rookie trainer… I fought hard but I'm too weak. If a wild #MON appears, let your #MON battle it! COPYCAT: Hmm? Quit mimicking? But that's my favorite hobby! This GYM is great. I love boarding with my #MON! You're a tough little kid. OLIVINE is on the sea! And if it's on the sea, there are bound to be fish! I've fished here for 30 years. Would you like to face the sea and fish? I lost again… Gee, you're tough! Oh yeah, I almost forgot that I had to give you this. Use it to get even tougher, OK? I'm going to get tougher too. There's no more room for stuff… I'm crushed… The FAST SHIP will sail next Friday. I love the way CLEFAIRY waggles its finger when it's trying to use METRONOME. It's so adorable! I hear TEAM ROCKET got back together in JOHTO but fell apart right away. I didn't know any- thing about that. I was challenged to a battle down- stairs. It's rough down there. You'd better be careful. …I haven't given up on becoming the greatest trainer… I'm going to find out why I can't win and become stronger… When I do, I will challenge you. And I'll beat you down with all my power. …Humph! You keep at it until then. This arrogant guy was at CINNABAR's volcano. No? That's very strange… You are both kind and strong… This is where we sailors work! I roam far and wide in search of #MON. Are you looking for #MON too? Then you're my collecting rival! ED: My PARASECT puts #MON to sleep with SPORE. BAYLEEF: Li liif! BUENA: Everyone ready? I want to hear you shout out today's password for ! The #MON that lived with me… I loved them like my grandchildren… They're SPEARY-- a SPEAROW--and RATTEY--a RATTATA. That's 100 wins to 101 losses. I won't battle again for a while. Oops…They crashed… AZALEA TOWN #MON GYM LEADER: BUGSY The Walking Bug #MON Encyclopedia Here. You can have this. MR.FUJI: Welcome. Hmm… You appear to be raising your #MON in a kind and loving manner. #MON lovers come here to pay their respects to departed #MON. Please offer con- dolences for the souls of the de- parted #MON. I'm sure that will make them happy. ROUTE 30 is out this way. Trainers will be battling their prized #MON there. Most #MON get drowsy if they hear a JIGGLYPUFF singing. There are several moves that can be used only while a #MON is asleep. Let me demonstrate the power of the #MON I caught! We need to change the look here… Are you making a #DEX? Here's a hot tip. The HIKER on ROUTE 33, ANTHONY, is a good guy. He'll phone you if he sees any rare #MON. There used to be a tower right here in GOLDENROD CITY. But it was old and creaky. So we replaced it with our RADIO TOWER. We dug up that bell during construction. I heard that all sorts of #MON lived in GOLDENROD in the past. Perhaps… That bell has some connection to the TIN TOWER in ECRUTEAK CITY… Ah! That reminds me… I overheard TEAM ROCKET whispering. Apparently, some- thing is going on at the TIN TOWER. I have no idea what is happening, but you might look into it. OK, I better go to my OFFICE. I like cute #- MON better than strong #MON. But I have strong and cute #MON! Welcome to FAST SHIP S.S.AQUA. Will you be board- ing today? ELM: This? My raging fists will shatter your #MON! : Thank you for the rail PASS! : …Pardon? : Is it really that fun to copy what I say and do? MISTY: Are there many strong train- ers in JOHTO? Like you, I mean. I'm going to travel one day, so I can battle some skilled trainers. KATE: I'm sorry we jumped you. We never expected anyone to find us here. You sure startled us. Nobody here will give you a COIN CASE. You should look in JOHTO. Are you off to see the GYARADOS ram- page at the LAKE? ROUTE 38 OLIVINE CITY - ECRUTEAK CITY Hey, you. Was my disguise cute or what, huh? I'm not a baby! That's not nice to say to a lady! DIRECTOR: Who? What? You came to rescue me? Thank you! The RADIO TOWER! What's happening there? Taken over by TEAM ROCKET? Here. Take this CARD KEY. SABRINA: I knew you were coming… Three years ago I had a vision of your arrival. You're after my BADGE. I don't enjoy bat- tling, but it's my duty as a LEADER to confer BADGES on anyone who has proven him- or herself worthy. Since you wish it, I will show you my psychic powers! Did you come to get KURT to make some BALLS? A lot of people do just that. Gahahaha! It makes me feel good to do nice things for other people! Surveillance cams are in the #MON statues. We'll keep appear- ing until you trip a secret switch. CIANWOOD CITY is a good distance away from here. Your #MON ap- pear to be fine. Is something wor- rying you? … The LIGHTHOUSE #MON is in trouble? I got it! This ought to do the trick. That's a NUGGET. I can't give you any nuggets of wisdom, so that'll have to do! Fwahahahaha! I am KOGA of the ELITE FOUR. I live in shadows, a ninja! My intricate style will confound and destroy you! Confusion, sleep, poison… Prepare to be the victim of my sin- ister technique! Fwahahahaha! #MON is not merely about brute force--you shall see soon enough! MACHOKE: Maaacho! I'm going to train by myself until I improve. Hyuck-hyuck-hyuck! I remember you! You got me good at our hideout! MISTY: Aww! Why did you have to show up and bug us now? Do you know what they call people like you? Pests! You heard me right, pest! … …Oh? Those BADGES you have… Are they JOHTO GYM BADGES? If you have eight, you must be good. OK, then. Come to CERULEAN GYM. I'll be happy to take you on. I'm MISTY, the GYM LEADER in CERULEAN. ERIKA is much, much stronger! Hold it. …Are you going to take the #MON LEAGUE challenge? …Don't make me laugh. You're so much weaker than I am. I'm not like I was before. I now have the best and strongest #MON with me. I'm invincible! ! I challenge you! I'm raising #- MON too! Will you battle with me? WAHAHAH! So you've come this far! Let me tell you, I'm tough! My #MON will crush stones and shatter bones! Watch this! The door's locked… ふまひ?へKぷへ COPYCAT: Yay! That's my CLEFAIRY # DOLL! See the tear where the right leg is sewn on? That's proof! When the BRASS TOWER burned down, three nameless #MON were said to have perished. It was tragic. However… A rainbow-colored #MON… In other words… HO-OH descended from the sky and gave new life to the three #MON. They are… SUICUNE, ENTEI and RAIKOU. That is what they say. Welcome to CABLE CLUB TIME CAPSULE. You can travel to the past and trade your #MON. Would you like to trade across time? Grandpa's gone… I'm so lonely… BUENA: Tune in to PASSWORD every night from six to midnight! Tune in, then drop in for a visit! ANNE: We share the same feelings as our #MON. MR.#MON's house is still farther up ahead. This GYM didn't have a LEADER until recently. A young man from PALLET became the LEADER, but he's often away. Oh, oh, oh! You think you're a hero? If you treat your #MON nicely, they will love you in return. Oh? Let me see your @ You can catch #MON even if you have six with you. If you catch one, it'll go to your BOX automatically. You shouldn't underestimate the wild #MON in these parts. The COMMUNICATION CENTER upstairs was just built. I traded #MON there already! BUENA: I look forward to hearing from you! It's a notice about using the phone… OK. I'll tell you PRYCE's secret. Yo. How are your #MON? If they're weak and not ready for battle, keep out of the grass. KURT: Ah, ! I just finished your BALL. Here! Which prize would you like? When I told my sis about the jiggly tree, she told me it's dangerous. If I beat WHITNEY, I wonder if she'll lend me her water bottle… Ah, excellent! Darn. I study five hours a day too. There's more to learning than just reading books. You were great to beat CLAIR! All that's left is the #MON LEAGUE challenge. You're on the way to becoming the #MON CHAMPION! Let me see your power! Hello! You're , right? I have some- thing for you. This week's ID number is @ Welcome to CABLE CLUB COLOSSEUM. You may battle a friend here. Would you like to battle? But… Is it a #MON EGG? If it is, it is a great discovery! Good battle! Good! You under- stand the true spirit of adven- ture. I like that! Take this with you. Have you been to LAVENDER TOWN? There's a tall RADIO TOWER there. If you need to rest, just tread water. You'll get your wind back, so you can keep on going strong. You and your #- MON should have no problem using this move. Take this FLASH HM. There! Scared now, are you? What? It has nothing to do with #MON? That's true! Come on. We shall do battle! We're the KANTO #MON FEDERA- TION! Right on! MT.MORTAR is like a maze inside. Be careful. Don't get lost in there. Sploosh! Who knows how long it would take to move this boulder… All the SLOWPOKE have disappeared from the town. The forest's pro- tector may be angry with us… It may be a bad omen. We should stay in.

Let me tell you, I had a hard time catching my prized #MON. What's this flyer? … Uncouth trainers have been holding battles in the UNDERGROUND PATH. Because of rising complaints by lo- cal residents, the UNDERGROUND PATH has been sealed indefinitely. CELADON POLICE I fought fair and square with honor. I don't regret this at all. That's WHIRLPOOL.

Battle GYM LEADER, win you did? It was a dark and stormy night… I saw this giant #MON flying from the islands. It was scattering feathers from its silver wings.

My sis MONICA said it powers up electric moves! … Whew… With my partners, I'm going to be the CHAMPION! You're traveling all alone? Isn't your mom worried? This is a #MON CENTER. They heal your #MON in no time at all. You'll be relying on them a lot, so you better learn about them. Different kinds of #MON appear past here.

That startles the #MON and stops its evolution. FRIEDA: Give it to a #MON that has poison-type moves. Oh! It's wicked! You'll be shocked how good it makes poison moves! You don't want it? Then scram. Shoo! Whenever I roll into this town, I always visit the OLIVINE CAFE. Everything on the menu makes me feel stronger. I can't stop eating! A #MON that hid on the sea floor. Eyes on its back scanned the area. I wish my #MON were as elegant as the KIMONO GIRLS… Hm? Your #MON party is full. LAKE OF RAGE… The appearance of a GYARADOS swarm… I smell a conspir- acy. I know it! Yo! CHAMP in making! It's been a long journey, but we are almost done! Count on me! CLAIR uses the mythical and sac- red dragon-type #MON. You can't damage them very easily. But you know, they're supposed to be weak against ice-type moves. I'm waiting to see SLOWPOKE's moment of evolution. Through observa- tion, I made a new discovery. A SLOWPOKE with a KING'S ROCK often gets bitten by a SHELLDER. Here, I'll share a KING'S ROCK with you. Just… Too strong… DAISY: There you go! All done. See? Doesn't it look nice? It's such a cute #MON. Thank you very much! What is your battle strategy? It is foolish to use strong moves indiscriminately. Glub… My pal was snooz- ing, right? Heh, what'd I say? I'm trying hard so I can be the star in my class. All right. I'll divulge a secret about our hideout. That thing on the floor up ahead is a warp panel.

I traveled out here just so I could battle you. Whew! You're hot stuff. I got wiped out on the last mission by a kid too. When we were ab- ducting #MON, this kid with long red hair and mean- looking eyes just creamed me… Hi! We're holding an eatathon contest. We can't serve you right now. Sorry. Many people were disappointed that SAFARI ZONE closed down, but Grandpa is so stubborn… This is a big room, but there's nothing here. I was no match… Wahahah! The coins keep rolling in! Have you visited PEWTER GYM? The LEADER uses rock-type #MON. Ooh, wow. You're tough! Quit taking SLOW- POKETAILS? If we obeyed you, TEAM ROCKET's rep would be ruined! …You won, fair and square.

Want me to check the ID numbers of your #MON? If you get lucky, you win a prize. You're trying to see how good you are as a #MON trainer? You better visit the #MON GYMS all over JOHTO and collect BADGES. Whew, . You did great! I was cowering in the corner out of pure terror! Thinking is my strong suit, not battling. The SAFARI ZONE WARDEN's grand- daughter lives in town. Um… I… If you understand what's so amazing about this move, you've made it as a trainer. #MON can't do a thing if they are asleep. I'll show you how scary that is! ERIKA: Hello… Lovely weather, isn't it? It's so pleasant… …I'm afraid I may doze off… My name is ERIKA. I am the LEADER of CELADON GYM. …Oh? All the way from JOHTO, you say? How nice… Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't realize that you wished to challenge me. Very well, but I shall not lose.

MYSTERY STONE PANEL CHAMBER Ah, so that is @ Would you like to battle? CLAIR: I'm sorry about this. Here, take this as my apology. Oops! Computation error? Agility is the key attribute of bird #MON. Then pay what you have, please. A MACHOP is growl- ing while stomping the ground flat. You can't take the @ Awaaargh! I stop my #MON from evolving too early. I make them learn certain moves be- fore I let them evolve. What do you think you're doing? Aaack! My #MON! SURGE: Hey, kid! Still slugging and chugging away? My #MON and I are still at it! People train at this LIGHTHOUSE. It's not easy to climb because of all the trainers. Gaah! I lost! That makes me mad! My husband lost to you, so he needs to train harder. That's good, since he was getting a little chubby. The FAST SHIP is a great place to meet and battle trainers. I was too busy singing… It's tough being a top celebrity. Everywhere I go, people chase me. I just want to be left alone… AMPHY: Palu! Palulu! The strange #- MON you saw in the RUINS? They appear to be very much like the drawings on the walls there. Hmm… That must mean there are many kinds of them… A radio signal that drives #- MON mad… My experiment is a complete success. My promotion is assured. This loss means absolutely nothing. Y-you! You came to rescue me? The SLOWPOKE have returned. Knowing them, they could've just been goofing off some- where. So far so good! Question 4: Is FALKNER the VIOLET GYM LEADER who uses bird #MON? Ah, refreshed and restored! Whoa! I'm beaten big time! Munch, munch… I'm BUGSY! I never lose when it comes to bug #MON. My research is going to make me the authority on bug #MON! Let me demonstrate what I've learned from my studies. I, I'm in shock! A guy about your age with piercing eyes and long hair came in. He scared me into giving him my prized #MON! I still have one left, but what if he comes back? You look strong. Could you look after my #MON for a while? #MON CHANNEL! Trainers from JOHTO can battle with KANTO GYM LEADERS. MR.#MON'S HOUSE STRAIGHT AHEAD! Its breathing is terribly labored… Have you been to CINNABAR? It's an island way south of here. This can't be true! Strong… Far too strong… My favorite radio program? I'd say #MON MUSIC. BATTLE TOWER welcomes you! I could show you to a BATTLE ROOM. Just me and my #MON. I'm de- lirious with joy. A comfy bed! Time to sleep… …You don't have enough coins here… Don't you just turn the #GEAR on and select the PHONE icon? You crossed the sea to get here? That must have been hard. It would be much easier if your #MON knew how to FLY… Oh, hello… I still can't find my granddaughter. If she's on the ship, that's OK. She's an energetic child, so she may be bugging some- one. I'm worried… Ooh… I lost… You're not weak… I'm not listening to your bragging! We # FANS have a policy of not listening to other people brag! It's rare to see anyone come here. Are you training on your own? I'm JANINE! Hocus- pocus… Poof! Fishing is a life- long passion. #MON are life- long friends! Uh-oh. I lost… WROOOAR! IT'S ROAR! EVEN #MON RUN FROM A GOOD ROAR!

I had my BLACK- GLASSES on, so I didn't notice you at all. What am I doing here? Hey, don't you worry about it. I'll give you a pair of BLACK- GLASSES, so forget you saw me, OK? #MON?

There is a strange presence here… So, what was PROF. ELM's errand? … That does sound challenging. But, you should be proud that people rely on you. Recently, strange, cryptic patterns have appeared. It's odd. They weren't here a little while ago… You should take a look at the walls. I'm going to KANTO to put on fire- breathing shows! Hm, too bad. I'll have to get some cash from home… Hey, you!

Keep it up! #MON appeared in the RUINS? That's incredible news! We'll need to investigate this. It's a detailed drawing of a pretty girl. ……I'll go train some more… How'd you like my MOOMOO MILK? It's my pride and joy, there. Give it to #MON to restore HP! I'll give it to ya fer just ¥500. The door is open. SPROUT TOWER was built long ago as a place for #MON training. I can beat you in pride, but… What am I doing? I'm shaking trees using HEADBUTT. It's fun. Here, you try it too! I subjected you to everything I could muster. But my efforts failed. I must hone my skills. Go on to the next room, and put your abilities to test! Oh, no. You can't carry any more #MON with you. I'll wait here while you make room for the EGG. Oh? You managed to get this far? You must be quite the trainer. We intend to take over this RADIO STATION and an- nounce our come- back. That should bring our boss GIOVANNI back from his solo training. We are going to regain our former glory. I won't allow you to interfere with our plans. Hm? That's a #- DEX, isn't it? May I see it? There are so many kinds of #MON. Hm? What's this? What is this #MON? It looks like the strange writing on the walls of the RUINS. If those drawings are really #- MON, there should be many more. I know! Let me up- grade your #- DEX. Follow me. The switch is turned off. Danger lurks in the night! Skilled trainers gather in KANTO. GYM LEADERS are especially strong. They won't be easy to defeat. I love showing off the #MON that I've raised. Don't you? I'm going to get into a bunch of battles, and show off my #MON! I'm going to audi- tion my songs at GOLDENROD's RADIO STATION. The power of mag- nets is awesome! Bug #MON evolve young. So they get stronger that much faster. My dream is to be- come a GYM LEADER. Fighting #MON are afraid of psy- chics… …Oh, it's you. I came looking for some legendary #MON that they say roosts here. But there's nothing here! Nothing after all the trouble of coming to this dump? No way! It's all your fault! Congratulations! You got all the KANTO GYM BADGES. I've got a reward for your efforts. Oh, I lost that! MARY: Why? Why do I have to suffer through this? MEOWTH, help me! FISHING SPOT Oh, …! Our neighbor, PROF. ELM, was looking for you. He said he wanted you to do some- thing for him. Oh! I almost for- got! Your #MON GEAR is back from the repair shop. Here you go! TRAINER HOUSE The Club for Top Trainer Battles I can't move any- more… I've never had a battle this good! My SLOWBRO and I make an awesome combination! The clusters of STARYU light up at the same time. It's so beautiful, it's scary. The FOREST is watched over by its protector. Stay out of mischief! used an ESCAPE ROPE! Let me recount a terrifying tale… Here's your cabin. If your #MON are hurt, take a nap in the bed. That will heal them. OK. Please get back outside and finish up. My PHANPY! You were simply marvelous! Dang… I failed… SLOWBRO, show me your CONFUSION! Oh, yes! I have to get my #MON out of DAY-CARE! Hm? Who are you? , eh? You want me to make some BALLS? Sorry, but that'll have to wait. Do you know TEAM ROCKET? Ah, don't worry. I'll tell you anyhow. TEAM ROCKET's an evil gang that uses #MON for their dirty work. They're supposed to have disbanded three years ago. Anyway, they're at the WELL, cutting off SLOWPOKETAILS for sale! So I'm going to go give them a lesson in pain! Hang on, SLOWPOKE! Old KURT is on his way! I'm sorry, but the MAGNET TRAIN isn't operating now. I've been to many GYMS, but the GYM in GOLDENROD is my favorite. It's filled with pretty flowers! It's a replica of an ancient #- MON. Th-Thank you! Nobody goes up to LAKE OF RAGE these days. RUINS OF ALPH EAST ENTRANCE Do you see how serious we are? MILTANK: Mooo! You need a # FLUTE to wake sleeping #MON. Every trainer has to know that! FAST SHIP S.S.AQUA is en route to OLIVINE CITY. We will make an announcement when we arrive. You have lovely #MON. May I see them in battle? Urk! Yeah, think you're cool, huh? Many people are hard at work here in the RADIO TOWER. They must be doing their best to put on good shows. When you linked with someone by mobile phone for the first time, weren't you impressed? When my first try worked, I was so impressed that I got the shakes! Is that man in black dressed up like a TEAM ROCKET member? How silly! The #MON at OLIVINE LIGHTHOUSE has been cured. Boats can safely sail out to sea at night again. If only there were an easy way to identify where I got my #MON… I'm practicing my fire breathing. My #MON and I are bound togeth- er by friendship. Our bond will never be broken! Yo, kid. How are they biting? …Sway like leaves in the wind… We're feeding MOOMOO! It's been a while, . …Since I lost to you, I thought about what I was lacking with my #MON… And we came up with an answer. , now we'll show you! I didn't want to lose… There's an e-mail message on the PC. … PROF.OAK, how is your research coming along? I'm still plugging away. I heard rumors that is getting quite a reputation. I'm delighted to hear that. ELM in NEW BARK TOWN 8-) The SLOWPOKE my dad gave me came back! Its TAIL is growing back too! Aren't you tired at all? I wonder what this does? You chased off TEAM ROCKET and went to ILEX FOREST alone? That takes guts! I like that. Come train with us. …Humph! This is why I hate battling wimps. There's no challenge in it. It's okay for people to like different types of #MON. #MON isn't just about having the most powerful one. Want to know a secret? CELADON MANSION has a hidden back door. There are some shops downstairs… But there are also trainers. I'm scared to go down there. Hang on. I have to phone my mom. Don't be too smug about beating me. MISTY will destroy you if you get complacent. BUENA: Aww… It's a special prize… Only trainers who have proven them- selves may pass. What is most important for raising #MON? … …Humph! He claims to be the ELDER but he's weak. It stands to reason. I'd never lose to fools who babble about being nice to #MON. I only care about strong #MON that can win. I really couldn't care less about weak #MON. If your #MON is frozen, it can't do a thing. It remains frozen after battle. Thaw it out with an ICE HEAL. …sigh… I must train some more… Hey, kid! You're holding us up! Our policy is to work behind the scenes where no one can see us! BENNY: Congrats! You have earned my respect! Come visit again sometime. opened a book. Travel Tip 4: Check your #MON moves. Press the A Button to switch moves. Legend has it that upon the emergence of a trainer who has the ability to touch the souls of #MON, a #MON will come forth to put that trainer to test at the TIN TOWER. The legend has come true! The legendary #MON SUICUNE has arrived! We, the WISE TRIO, shall test your worthiness to go inside! VERMILION PORT ENTRANCE looks happy. I want to become the trainer CHAMP using the #MON I caught. That's the best part of fishing! Eight BADGES! They must prove that you've beaten GYM LEADERS. No wonder you're so good! You have no room in your party! We'll soon depart for GOLDENROD. Are you coming on board? This calls for extreme measures. I must take to the hills and train in solitude. I saw these weird, slow #MON on CYCLING ROAD. I might be bad at swimming, but I love the sea. My VENONAT won me the Bug-Catching Contest at the NATIONAL PARK. I lost… It's a RARE CANDY that makes #MON stronger. I prefer making my #MON stronger by battling, so you can have it. UNDERGROUND ENTRANCE My #MON always get paralyzed or poisoned when the chips are down… So I came to buy some FULL HEAL. I wonder if there's any left? Just once a week, a #MON comes to the water's edge. I wanted to see that #MON… MONICA: Glad to meet you. I'm MONICA of Monday. I'm the best in my class at #MON. BUTTERFREE: Freeh! Speaking of the RADIO STATION, what's this week's lucky number? Ooh, you've got great endurance! TEAM ROCKET's hideout is in the basement of the GAME CORNER. Oh, wait. That was three years ago. It's SILPH CO.'s latest product. It's not for sale anywhere yet. You're too strong. Our plan could be ruined. I must warn the others… MOOMOO FARM Enjoy Our Fresh and Tasty Milk I give up! You're the winner! received TM24. Cut through AZALEA and you'll be in ILEX FOREST. But these skinny trees make it impossible to get through. The CHARCOAL MAN's #MON can CUT down trees. ELM: So, you like CHIKORITA, the grass #MON? The SHRINE ahead is home to the MASTER of our dragon-user clan. You're not allowed to just go in! AMPHY: … …Pa… paloo… I hadn't seen that #MON before… TRAINER TIPS Use DIG to return to the entrance of any place. It is convenient for exploring caves and other landmarks. We're pretty high up here. My bird #MON are in prime form. All right. Stop. I'll tell you. Oh! You're much too strong! I just got care- less, that's all! ELM: Hi, ! Thanks to you, my research is going great! Take this as a token of my appreciation. You do remember? Yeehaw! Lucky! ROUTE 10 CERULEAN CITY - LAVENDER TOWN SLOWPOKE: … Yawn? Welcome! We exchange your game coins for fabulous prizes! See? I look just like her now! Are you going to LAKE OF RAGE too? Let's play for a little while! You know how #- MON have different abilities? People are like that too. Every- one has different potential. This is the only place where you can buy LOVELY MAIL. Welcome to the #MON SALON! I'm the younger and less expen- sive of the two HAIRCUT BROTHERS. I'll spiff up your #MON for just ¥300. So? How about it? Wahahah! Farewell, kid! Here… It's my house! Thanks for your company. Let me give you a small gift. Ooh, you're good at #MON too. Have you ever been to a picnic? They're so much fun! I'll freeze your #MON, so you can't do a thing! UNOWN may be printed out. Just evolving isn't enough! Do you know about baby #MON? I bet they're just adorable! Oh? You have some BADGES I've never seen before. Oh, I get it. You got them in JOHTO. Press START to open the MENU. A mere tactical error cost me… I had no time to show off PIKACHU… If your #MON is hurt, you should heal it with this machine. Feel free to use it anytime. Where did I meet this PSYDUCK? I'll go anywhere if bug #MON appear there. Oh, no! My beauti- ful #MON! Are you going to the GYM? Me too! How unlucky! I lost! I know my short- comings now. Thanks for showing me! Were you looking at these flowers or at me? In the past, there were two nine-tier towers here. The BRASS TOWER, which was said to awaken #MON, and the TIN TOWER, where #MON were said to rest. The view from the tops of the TOWERS must have been magnificent. At the time, an immense, silver- colored #MON was said to make its roost atop the BRASS TOWER. However… About 150 years ago, a lightning bolt struck one of the TOWERS. It was engulfed in flames that raged for three days. A sudden downpour finally put out the blaze. And that is how the BURNED TOWER came to be. OK, OK. The best of luck to you! Swimming exercises your entire body. It's healthy. Oh? You don't have one? Too bad. ! This BALL started to shake while I was checking it. There must be something to this! GOLDENROD CITY RADIO TOWER I'm tired of walk- ing. I need to take a break. There are many academic books. Ancient Ruins… Mysteries of the Ancients… I came with my mom to visit #MON graves… Hm… I see… You care deeply for #MON. Very commendable. That conviction is what is important! , don't lose that belief. It will see you through at the #MON LEAGUE. The tug you feel on the ROD when you hook a #- MON… That's the best feeling ever for an angler like me. The BASEMENT KEY opened the door. We hold Contests regularly in the PARK. You should give it a shot. Visit Grandma's shop. She sells stuff that nobody else has. FARFETCH'D: Kwaa! If you use REVIVE, a #MON that's fainted will wake right up. Two towers… Two #MON… But when one burned down, both #MON flew away, never to return. There's a #COM CLUB upstairs in any #MON CENTER. There, you can battle or trade with a friend far away by using a MOBILE ADAPTER. To link up, your friend must have the same kind of MOBILE ADAPTER as you. MT.SILVER Your #MON will be healed to full health. Sorry. This road is closed for construction. If you want to get to CINNABAR, you'd better go south from PALLET TOWN. Paralysis reduces speed and may prevent movement. It remains after battle, so use a PARLYZ HEAL. Ah! The weather's as fine as ever. Take a Break from Shopping! 6F TRANQUIL SQUARE This way leads to MT.SILVER. You'll see scary- strong #MON out there. Have you gone to the BATTLE TOWER? I think a lot of tough trainers have gathered there already. But since you have so many BADGES, you shouldn't do badly at all. Look how adorable my TEDDIURSA acts! Isn't it cute enough to make your heart melt? ROUTE 28 Its cry is weak… For trainers, it's a given that we'll battle whenever we meet. Monday, MONICA ROUTE 40 Tuesday, TUSCANY ROUTE 29 Wednesday, WESLEY LAKE OF RAGE Thursday, ARTHUR ROUTE 36 Friday, FRIEDA ROUTE 32 Saturday, SANTOS BLACKTHORN CITY Sunday, SUNNY ROUTE 37 Going into an alley for the first time makes me sorta anxious. Welcome to this chamber. There are sliding panels that depict a #MON drawn by the ancients. Slide the panels around to form the picture. To the right is a description of the #MON. Scientists in the back are examining some newly found patterns. … You say what? TEAM ROCKET bye-bye a go-go? Broken it is says you? Oh, no! Should I do what now on from, me? Come to think of it, I've seen a pink BUTTERFREE. Let Us Pump Up Your #MON! 4F MEDICINE BOX SAFFRON, CELADON… I hear there are many big cities in KANTO. I just recently became a trainer. My son encouraged me to do it. I'm impressed by the selection of convenient items. The flexible pil- lar protects the TOWER, even from earthquakes. TRAINER TIPS A #MON holding a MIRACLEBERRY will cure itself of any status problem. Radios pick up strange signals inside the RUINS. Wow, you have a #DEX! That is just so awesome. I met my MEOWTH at night, right here on ROUTE 39. I'm not sure why, but it seems to like it when I train here. It seems to become friendlier by training here than anywhere else. Oh, gee… The CAPTAIN will be furious… I should train again at the GYM in VIOLET CITY. I just love this new slot machine. It's more of a challenge than the ones in CELADON. I heard about a craftsman who makes custom BALLS in the JOHTO town of AZALEA. I wish I had some. I take my GUARD job seriously. Hey! You have a #DEX. OK. You can go through. Wow! Thanks a whole bunch! My boss's #MON won't obey me be- cause I don't have a BADGE. A… H… E… A… D… Hmm… What? I'm decoding this message! I live down here. You can, too, if you'd like. There's plenty of room, you see. I'm sorry--the TIME CAPSULE is being adjusted. DON: Luck plays a big part in this. You never know what #MON will appear. What happened to the red GYARADOS? It's gone? Oh, darn. I came here for nothing? I know--let's battle! M-my #MON! SAMUEL: Next time, I'm going to win. This POLIWRATH is my partner. I wonder if it'll ever evolve into a frog #MON. I'm playing with stickers I printed from my #DEX. It's crammed with reference materi- als. There's even a # DOLL. Hi! I'm WHITNEY! Everyone was into #MON, so I got into it too! #MON are super-cute! You want to bat- tle? I'm warning you--I'm good! That's the CUT HM. Teach that to a #MON to clear small trees. Of course, you have to have the GYM BADGE from AZALEA to use it. The best thing to ever happen to me was discovering #MON. I'll do anything to get my hands on rare #MON! received CASCADEBADGE. Oh, I'm weak! Hyuck-hyuck-hyuck! You're challenging me to a battle? Hah! You're nuts, but you have guts! I like that! If you can beat me, I'll tell you a password to the boss's room! I wonder how many kinds of #MON are in the RUINS? What's the matter? Aren't you headed to the #MON LEAGUE? Don't you know where it is? From here, go to NEW BARK TOWN. Then SURF east. The route there is very tough. Don't you dare lose at the #- MON LEAGUE! If you do, I'll feel even worse about having lost to you! Give it every- thing you've got. BILL told me about a #MON that is very loyal to its trainer. It's supposed to ROAR well. Before the MAGNET TRAIN STATION was built, there was a house there. A little girl named COPYCAT used to live there. , I'm counting on you! Over many years, DIGLETT dug a large tunnel. That tunnel goes to a distant town. I hate the weak. #MON, trainers. It doesn't matter who or what. I'm going to be strong and wipe out the weak. That goes for TEAM ROCKET too. They act big and tough in a group. But get them alone, and they're weak. I hate them all. You stay out of my way. A weakling like you is only a distraction. I just lost, so I'm trying to find more #MON. Wait! You look weak! Come on, let's battle! OK! Uncle! I give! FEAROW: Feero! Yeah, TEAM ROCKET was broken up three years ago. But we continued our activities underground. Now you can have fun watching us stir up trouble! Hm! There's a big building up ahead! What is it? I knew I'd lose… I haven't seen you around before. So you think you are pretty tough? What took you, ? Just as I thought, that strange radio signal is coming from here. gave away the EON MAIL. You have to warm up before going into the water. That's basic. TIN TOWER A legendary #- MON is said to roost here. MORTY: ECRUTEAK's GYM LEADER has to study what are said to be the legendary #MON --SUICUNE, ENTEI and RAIKOU. EUSINE is here, so I've decided to investigate the TOWER with him. Oh, you have no space for this. Stop in at any #MON CENTER across the country to pick it up. Welcome. This is SILPH CO.'s HEAD OFFICE BUILDING. received HIVEBADGE. You're too strong to be a practice partner. Most excellent. This RADIO TOWER will fulfill our grand design. I must say, your #MON are quite cute, too. If trainers meet, the first thing to do is battle. I hear #MON are rampaging at the LAKE OF RAGE. I'd like to see that. BURNED TOWER It was destroyed by a mysterious fire. Please stay away, as it is unsafe. DIRECTOR: Use that to open the shut- ters on 3F. ELM: , you look great! ILEX FOREST is restless! What is going on? I just finished adjustments on my TIME CAPSULE. You know that #MON can be traded, right? My TIME CAPSULE was developed to enable trades with the past. But you can't send anything that didn't exist in the past. If you did, the PC in the past would have a breakdown. So you have to remove anything that wasn't around in the past. Put simply, no sending new moves or new #MON in the TIME CAPSULE. Don't you worry. I'm done with the adjustments. Tomorrow, TIME CAPSULES will be running at all #MON CENTERS. I have to hurry on back to GOLDENROD and see my folks. Buh-bye! Oh. Fine, then. Anyway, if you want to catch #MON, you have to walk a lot. What? You don't want anything? The roadwork is finally finished. Now I can go fishing again. BILL's PC can store up to 20 #MON per BOX. The password to the boss's room is SLOWPOKETAIL. But it's useless unless you have two passwords. CLAIR, our GYM LEADER, is waiting for you. However, it would be impossible for a run-of-the-mill trainer to win. #MON MUSIC with Host DJ BEN Words are useless. Let your fists do the talking! I lost… Darn… I was conned into buying a SLOWPOKE- TAIL. I feel sorry for the poor #MON. The dining room is up ahead. The stairs at the end lead to the CAPTAIN's cabin. 3F: TM SHOP Make Your #MON Stronger! Caves collapse easily. Several caves have disappeared in the past few years, like the one out- side CERULEAN. As a pro HIKER, that's common knowledge. They were able to build this huge facility thanks to advances in wire- less technology. Oh. I see. Please see me if you change your mind. IRENE: Ohhh! Too strong! An odd tree is blocking the way to GOLDENROD CITY. It's preventing me from shopping. Something should be done about it. FRIEDA: Hiya! What day do you like? I love Friday. No doubt about it! Don't you think it's great too? Tch! I tried to rush things… Our milk even goes out to KANTO. So if our own MILTANK won't give us any milk, we're in trouble. My #MON weren't spunky enough! SEA COTTAGE BILL'S HOUSE May I see your rail PASS, please? OK. Right this way, please. Hi! Check out my GYARADOS! I raised it from a MAGIKARP. I can't believe how strong it has become. Oops, not enough money… You beat me, and I won't forget it! Ah! Well done! Your experiences in VIOLET CITY should be useful for your journey. You're not going any farther! I don't show mercy to my enemies, not even brats! ELM: What?!? PROF.OAK gave you a #DEX? , is that true? Th-that's incredible! He is superb at seeing the poten- tial of people as trainers. Wow, . You may have what it takes to become the CHAMPION. You seem to be getting on great with #MON too. You should take the #MON GYM challenge. The closest GYM would be the one in VIOLET CITY. They'll really sting when you take a bath. Whoa! Too much. I'm raising #- MON too. They serve as my private guards. Whoa! What a surprise! I didn't expect to see anyone here! I trained a lot, so I thought I was a capable trainer. I guess I'm not. Welcome to TRAINER HOUSE, the newest and most happening place in VIRIDIAN. We're open to trainers only. You can battle against the best of the best right downstairs. I'm a bit tired. If I win, lend me your #MON. I feel like just flying away now. Ufufufu… I hope it gets dark soon. KURT: Hey there, ! The guard up top took off when I shouted at him. But then I took a tumble down the WELL. I slammed down hard on my back, so I can't move. Rats! If I were fit, my #MON would've punished them… Ah, it can't be helped. , show them how gutsy you are in my place! For battles, I'd much rather use #MON I've been raising, even if they're weaker than some newly caught #MON. You're strong! Establishing communications… Hang on! Don't you have a BICYCLE? The CYCLING ROAD is beyond here. You have to have a BICYCLE to go on. Is that right? I'm the GAME DESIGNER! Filling up your #DEX is tough, but don't give up! We get different passengers from VERMILION CITY to OLIVINE CITY. My big brother BILL made the PC #MON storage system. I lost that one! There's a notice here… The BIKE SHOP has moved to GOLDENROD CITY in JOHTO… I… I can't… believe it… You plan to rescue the DIRECTOR? That won't be pos- sible because I'm going to beat you! I was tough at the BATTLE TOWER… The cops shut down our UNDERGROUND PATH! That really fries me! Are you lost? No, you can't be. You don't have that scared look. I'll give you something to be scared about! Dragon #MON are symbolic of our clan. You have shown that you can be entrusted with one. #MON gain expe- rience in battle and change their form. Too strong! Why? Did you see the shrine honoring the protector? It watches over the FOREST from across time. I think that it must be a grass- type #MON. It's very attached to you. This move should be perfect for a pair like you. Hm? That's not the #MON that I was told about. It's a photo of a grinning old man who's surrounded by #MON. I'm disgusted by wimpy people! LANCE: , we should split up to check this place. I'll go first. Dark roads are dangerous at night. But in the pitch- black of night, the sea is even more treacherous! Without the beacon of the LIGHTHOUSE to guide it, no ship can sail. SURGE: Hey, you little tyke! I have to hand it to you. It may not be very smart to challenge me, but it takes guts! When it comes to electric #MON, I'm number one! I've never lost on the battlefield. I'll zap you just like I did my enemies in war! It looks like it hasn't been used in a long time… A BELLSPROUT over 100 feet tall… People say that it became the center pillar here. Astounding… SUICUNE, ENTEI and RAIKOU have arisen from their sleep… Is the legend coming true? We have a special quiz campaign on right now. Answer five ques- tions correctly to win a RADIO CARD. Slide it into your #GEAR to play the radio anytime, anywhere. Would you like to take the quiz? KURT: Now that my granddaughter is helping me, I can work much faster. The TIN TOWER shook! A #MON must have returned to the top! I found a good #MON in DARK CAVE. I'm going to raise it to take on FALKNER. He's the leader of VIOLET CITY's GYM. I'm feeling great today! I feel like I could boot even the LEAGUE CHAMP! I just can't find a way to win! Keep it up! Oh, and take this --it's the gift you couldn't take when we last met. I got shattered! There's a person in CIANWOOD CITY across the sea. I heard him brag- ging about his rare #MON. DAISY: OK, I'll get it looking nice in no time. I'm on patrol for suspicious indi- viduals. Sorry. Authorized personnel only beyond this point. It wasn't that way before. There's something wrong with the DIRECTOR… What?! You made it past our men in the UNDERGROUND? How could you? Since you're so strong, it must be fun to battle. Is that right? That's a shame! ELM: Wait! Where are you going? Wow! You have a perfect match of all five numbers! We have a grand prize winner! You have won a MASTER BALL! This is DJ MARY, your co-host! Down and out… The one who wants to win most--will! No good! On the sea, the only thing you can count on is your own good self! I'm so proud of my buff bod! This MAIL isn't for me. OK! Big smile now! The FAST SHIP will sail next Monday. People who catch and use #MON in battle are #MON trainers. They are expected to visit #MON GYMS and defeat other trainers. The next page is… Blank! Boy: E-he-he… I haven't written anymore… My dream is to fly with my beloved bird #MON. Lalala lalalala. Have plenty of water, my lovely! Thanks, ! You're helping unravel #MON mysteries for us! I want you to have this as a token of our appreciation. It doesn't seem to like you at all. It looks mean. There used to be a sleeping #MON lying in front of DIGLETT'S CAVE. But it seems to have disappeared. But can't carry any more items. How do you like S.S.AQUA's ride? She practically skates across the waves. MILTANK became totally healthy! You look strong. Good trainers seek tough opponents instinctively. I came to explore MT.MORTAR, but I got separated from my partner… Did you run into a trainer who uses a SEADRA that knows WATERFALL? UNDERGROUND PATH CERULEAN CITY - VERMILION CITY Strong #MON. Weak #MON. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favorites. I like your style. You understand what's important. Go on--the CHAM- PION is waiting. MARY: Let's inter- view the brand new CHAMPION! Your #MON look a little tired. You should rest them a while. I'm sorry… I won't cheat anymore… ROUTE 12 NORTH TO LAVENDER TOWN SAFFRON CITY Shining, Golden Land of Commerce BLUE'S HOUSE My brother made the PC #MON storage system. I was going to give you BILL's number… Oh? You don't have any room for this. I'm going back to the GYM, so make room, then come see me there. I'm drowning! Don't you wonder who'd make some- thing like this? And why? I'm not in favor of overly power- ful moves. I want to win, but I also don't want to harm #MON. Correct! Question 2: Is this statement correct? You can't buy a BERRY at a MART. JENN: You can't beat IRENE and go unpunished! ECRUTEAK used to have two towers: one each in the east and west. You have no room for it. Wa-hey! I was going to snap that tree with my straight- arm punch. But I couldn't! I'm a failure! Hey, brat! You don't belong here! Get lost! Hm? You know BILL? He's my grandson. He's in JOHTO. He does something with PCs, so I'm house-sitting. Sorry I failed you, LT.SURGE, sir! That was another fantastic battle! Try your hand at fishing wherever there is water. Remember--you can catch different #MON using different RODS. Look what you did to my #MON… I won't forget this… Wha…? That PC is free for any trainer to use. You defeated CLAIR? That's amazing! I've never heard of her losing to anyone other than LANCE. The Playground for Everybody--CELADON GAME CORNER I caught a bunch of #MON. Let me battle with you! Oh… Never mind, then… I got booted out of the GAME COR- NER. I was trying to cheat using my #MON… My BICYCLES are first-rate! You can ride them anywhere. Stop taking TAILS? Yeah, just try to defeat all of us! You are returning to PROF.ELM? Here. Your #MON should have some rest. The way you bat- tled, it was like watching a dance. It was a rare treat to see! I want you to have this. Don't worry --take it! JASMINE: …Um, please don't be offended… …AMPHY will not take anything from anyone but me… Do you battle by mobile phone? If time runs out during a battle, waiting to see who won is really nerve wracking. The window's open. A pleasant breeze is blowing in. …AMPHY, hang on! My disguise was right on! Dang! There are odd pat- terns drawn on the walls of the RUINS. They must be the keys for unravel- ing the mystery of the RUINS. BUENA: , your phone list has no room left for me… Ancient buildings are often tombs of kings. Like the pyramids, for instance. You know young Master LANCE? He looks so much like our MASTER did in his youth. It's in their blood. I'm checking it now. It's SWEET SCENT. Use it wherever #MON appear. #MON will be enticed by it. This is a great fishing spot. You saw people fishing? How about you? Would you like one of my RODS? KURT: That turned out great. Try catching #MON with it. What? Who are you? This is the office of our leader, GIOVANNI. Since disbanding TEAM ROCKET three years ago, he has been in training. But we're certain he will be back some day to assume command again. That's why we're standing guard. I won't let any- one disturb this place! Go, RATTATA! TACKLE! What kinds of BALLS do you use? Stay out of the way! Beat it! It's been a year since the volcano erupted. Good going! I thought you were staring at me because I'm cute! NIDORAN, shake! PROF.OAK: Ah, ! It's been a long while. You certainly look more impressive. Your conquest of the LEAGUE is just fantastic! Your dedication, trust and love for your #MON made this happen. Your #MON were outstanding too. Because they be- lieved in you as a trainer, they per- severed. Congratulations, ! RHYDON: Gugooh gugogooh! It was around three years ago. TEAM ROCKET was up to no good with #MON. But justice pre- vailed--a young kid broke 'em up. Give it your best shot, or I'll take you down! I found a pretty coin here. Someone must have lost it… ARTHUR: Today's not Thursday. How disappointing. How will you dis- tinguish our real LEADER? My grandson BILL told me about a #MON that has a long tongue. Awwwww… We can't have a brat like you on the loose. It's harmful to TEAM ROCKET's pride, you see. However strong you may be, you can't take both of us at the same time. Sorry, baby. Now get ready to be thrashed. Mercy! 6F: ROOFTOP SQUARE VENDING MACHINES You should treat it better. It's not used to you. We'll have to beef up our security presence. What is this? You don't have room? WESLEY: Well, how do you do? Seeing as how it's Wednesday today, I'm WESLEY of Wednesday. Uh-oh… Your PACK is full. We'll hold on to your prize, but only for today. Please make room, then come see me. PI-PIKACHU! When I was a wee lad, I was a hot- shot trainer! Here's a word of advice: Catch lots of #MON! Treat them all with kindness! Oh, you're better than WHITNEY… You'll be OK, then. Here's the SQUIRTBOTTLE! I've been over- seas, so I know about all sorts of #MON! SPROUT TOWER Experience the Way of #MON JANINE: I'm going to really apply myself and improve my skills. I want to become better than both Father and you! MANAGER: I, I, I'm ready to blast someone! Who would dare ruin my generator? I spent so much time on it! If I catch him, he's going to get a taste of my ZAP CANNON! I just got word from CERULEAN. It appears that a shady character has been loitering around. Ohhh! Oh! You have more energy than I do. SAMUEL: Darn. I thought I would score higher… I got chased from my post by these thugs in black. They left this behind. It makes me uncom- fortable. Could you take it away? Beaten by a passing stranger! How could you? Oh! You're really strong! … The journey to be- coming the #MON MASTER is long and difficult. Knowing that, will you keep going? … I see. No, you're right. If you would give up that easily, you would have never chased that dream in the first place. I look forward to seeing you again! You beat me with your speed… That's an EVERSTONE. Some species of #MON evolve when they grow to certain levels. A #MON holding the EVERSTONE won't evolve. Give it to a #- MON you don't want to evolve. Sorry, but you don't have a PASS. Shopping under the sky! It feels so nice up on a rooftop. I taught BLIZZARD to my #MON. It was hard to get enough coins for it, but it was worth it. Hello, hello! You must be . PROF.ELM said that you would visit. I call my PIDGEY STRAWBERRY! What? That #MON!?! SAFFRON CITY #MON GYM LEADER: SABRINA The Master of Psychic #MON! Our dream will soon come true… It was such a long struggle… The SLOWPOKE came back, and you even found FARFETCH'D. You're the cool- est, man! A SLOWPOKE with its TAIL cut off… Huh? It has MAIL. Read it? You look pretty strong. Let me battle you! IRENE: Kyaaah! Someone found us! You can't buy MAX REVIVE, but it fully restores a fainted #MON. Beware--it won't restore PP, the POWER POINTS needed for moves. got ELM's phone number. Yo! CHAMP in making! Since MISTY was away, I went out for some fun too. He-he-he. It's been quite some time since a trainer has gained our MASTER's rare approval. In fact, not since Master LANCE. Heh, that's good to hear. Now you're an angler too! That tremor was pretty scary! But I'm more concerned about this wall here… You're too much! Wahahah! You won't regret it! Which move should I teach? Gyaaaah! This is what I want PROF.ELM to examine. Wow! Excellent! You completed your #DEX! Congratulations! We have arrived in GOLDENROD. We hope to see you again. When I get older, I'm going to be a GYM LEADER! I make my #MON battle with my friend's to make them tougher! KATE: No! I can't believe I lost. …I couldn't win… I gave it every- thing I had… What you possess, and what I lack… I'm beginning to understand what that dragon master said to me… BUENA: Your BLUE CARD's full. Trade it in for a fabulous prize! This was once a ninja hideout. There are traps to confound intruders like you. Hmmm… I don't know what to do… I'm sorry--the TRADE MACHINE is being adjusted. My chance of losing? Not even one percent! I reckon yer PACK's full. We train at the BURNED TOWER, but we've never heard of a hole opening up there before. It must have been deliberately made by someone. How disappointing… Come back if you want to listen. I like snoozing with the radio on… …Zzzz… ELM: ? Didn't you meet my assistant? He should have met you with the EGG at VIOLET CITY's #MON CENTER. You must have just missed him. Try to catch him there. …sigh… Oh, for the kindness of people… Yikes! You've got awesome torque! What? That's not a MAGIKARP! You don't have room for this. …Gulp… Chew… With that thing, you can tune into the radio programs here in KANTO. Gahahahaha! RUINS OF ALPH RESEARCH CENTER THE AUTHORITY ON THE RUINS OF ALPH KURT's LURE BALL is the best for catching hooked #MON. It's much more effective than a ULTRA BALL. I heard roars from deep inside the ISLANDS. Have you forgotten anything? WROOOOAR! PEOPLE RUN WHEN I ROAR! BUT YOU CAME LOOKING! THAT PLEASES ME! NOW TAKE THIS! EARL, I am! Wonderful are #MON, yes! Teach you I will to be a better trainer! What you want to know? Want to be a winner is you? SURGE: THUNDER- BADGE increases #MON's speed. Consider it proof that you defeated me. You wear it proudly, hear? It's a fancy panel that's decorated with flowers. How could this be? Our dreams have come to naught. I wasn't up to the task after all. Like GIOVANNI did before me, I will disband TEAM ROCKET here today. Farewell. JANINE: You're so tough! I have a special gift! It's TOXIC, a pow- erful poison that steadily saps the victim's HP. DARK CAVE The door won't open? Well, duh. It has to have a password that only TEAM ROCKET knows. What are JOHTO's #MON CENTERS like? …Oh, I see. So they let you link with people far away? Then I'll get my friend in JOHTO to catch a MARILL and trade it to me! Check trees for BERRIES. They just drop right off. …Whew! MANAGER: I won't forgive him! The culprit can cry and apologize, but I'll still hammer him! Gahahahah! When the legendary #MON appeared… They struck terror in those who saw their rise. And… Some even took to futile attacks. The legendary #MON, knowing their own power, fled, ignoring the frightened people. INDIGO PLATEAU The Ultimate Goal for Trainers! #MON LEAGUE HQ I should go to ROCK TUNNEL to get myself an ONIX. NO ENTRY BEYOND THIS POINT I want to buy some items that raise #MON stats, but I don't have enough money… I can count on my #MON more than my boyfriend. Fly high into the sky, my beloved bird #MON! Gramps was looking for you. What do you want, you pest? Scram! My MILTANK ain't givin' me milk n'more. This here FARM's got famous milk. Most everyone wants a drink. It'll give me lots o' milk if'n I feed it lots o' BERRIES, I reckon. There's a big RADIO TOWER in LAVENDER. I'm all sweaty. Time for a swim! Find What You Need at CELADON DEPT.STORE! Oh! Smart student you are! Nothing more do I teach! Good to #MON you must be! The ADMINISTRATION OFFICE received an e-mail. It says… To the #COM CENTER staff… Wireless communi- cation has enabled #MON trainers to interact across the nation. Let's keep working for the day when all the trainers in the world can link without barriers! ILEX FOREST is big. Be careful! Don't get lost. You will? Perfect! Thanks, kid! My pal's a chubby guy who snoozes all the time. You'll recognize him right away! If the server is busy, it may not be possible to log on. If so, please call back later. If you are unable to log on or don't understand the error messages, call a support center or read the instructions. Do you know about the MAGNET TRAIN? It's a railway that goes to GOL- DENROD in JOHTO. LANCE: Are you all right? Your #MON are hurt and tired. Here, give them some of my medi- cine. I lost… Please forgive me, GIOVANNI! WILLIAM: Well, I'm satisfied because I caught a #MON that I wanted. ROUTE 34 GOLDENROD CITY - AZALEA TOWN ILEX FOREST SOMEWHERE BETWEEN Oh, that's it? There are no GYM TRAINERS at the VIRIDIAN GYM. The LEADER claims his policy is to win without having any underlings. No littering. Please take your waste with you. Sorry, I'll be out for a while. MISTY, GYM LEADER received MYSTERY EGG. What's this? TEAM ROCKET has come back? I saw some men in black at LAKE OF RAGE… Gaaah! VERMILION CITY The Port of Exquisite Sunsets Here are the PARK BALLS for the Contest. Whew… I've got to stay calm and cool… I can't lose my cool, or I'll lose all my money… Wow, you beat WHITNEY? Cool! Oh, no, no, no! We've been off the air ever since the POWER PLANT shut down. All my efforts to start this station would be wasted if I can't broadcast. I'll be ruined! I can teach your #MON amazing moves if you'd like. Should I teach a new move? SURGE: Arrrgh! You are strong! OK, kid. You get THUNDERBADGE! Some #MON evolve only by being traded via a Game Link cable. I know of four: MACHOKE, KADABRA, HAUNTER and, um, GRAVELER. I heard there are others too. OK! Watch it become beautiful! JASMINE, the GYM LEADER, is at the LIGHTHOUSE. She's been tending to a sick #MON. A strong trainer has to be compas- sionate. The RUINS are about 1500 years old. But it's not known why they were built--or by whom. It's a notice about where MOBILE ADAPTERS are to be used… Enemies on every side! Waaaaah! Waaaaah! …Snivel, hic… …You meanie! I'm sorry. This would be your second time today. You're permitted to enter just once a day. Please, do go on. SUICUNE will put you to the test. That's CIANWOOD's GYM BADGE! Then you should take this HM. The MAGNET TRAIN travels at over 340 mph. It goes between KANTO and JOHTO in almost no time at all. It really makes JOHTO accessible. My line's all tangled up… It's over. I don't mind. We HIKERS are like that. Today's Contest is over. We hope you will participate in the future. LAKE OF RAGE is actually a crater made by rampaging GYARADOS. The crater filled up with rainwater and the LAKE was formed. That's the story passed on from my Grandpa's great- great-grandpa. It used to be that you could catch lively MAGIKARP there, but… I don't understand what's happening. Oh, wow! Grandpa's checking a BALL right now. So I'm waiting till he's done. We'll soon depart for SAFFRON. Are you coming aboard? Sometimes, kids are smarter than grown-ups! Mercy! You showed me your power! A thief broke into the POWER PLANT… What is the world coming to? I'm bored by fish- ing. Let's battle! Let's all listen politely to other trainers. I'm waiting for #MON that appear only at night. My heart weeps… S.S.AQUA uses jets to skim over the waves! Our EXECUTIVES are trying to take this place over. They have some big plan. I wonder what that is? My husband lives happily with #- MON he got through trades. How do I go about becoming ladylike like ERIKA? They have programs that aren't shown in JOHTO… Our CHAIRMAN is very vocal when it comes to #MON… Tch, you really are strong. It's too bad. If you were to join TEAM ROCKET, you could become an EXECUTIVE. There's a notice here… SAFARI ZONE OFFICE is closed until further notice. Who, me? I'm the PROGRAMMER. Play the slot machines! BUENA: , do you want to register my phone number? Clang! @ …Sniff… What? What do you want? A BADGE? Oh, right. I forgot. Here's PLAINBADGE. What?! I got disposed of… Before I became a teacher, I used to forget a lot of things. A boy close to your age is in training here. He is much like CLAIR when she was younger. It is a little worrisome… BATTLE TOWER Take the Ultimate Trainer Challenge! Yo! CHAMP in making! You're really rocking. Are you battling the GYM LEADERS of KANTO? They're strong and dedicated people, just like JOHTO's GYM LEADERS. I'm going to take you down! Prepare to be shocked! Ah! Here's another huge hole! It's big enough to go through! I wanted PORYGON, but I was short by 100 coins… When I announce my findings, I'm sure we'll delve a bit deeper into the many mysteries of #MON. You can count on it! Dragons are sacred #MON. They are full of life energy. If you're not serious, you won't be able to beat them. There are many items lying about that aren't ob- vious. Use ITEMFINDER to check if there is an item on the ground near you. It doesn't show the exact spot, so you'll have to look yourself. Oh yeah--I heard there are items in ECRUTEAK's BURNED TOWER. I read that there are four of those stone panels. Sorry. You can't board now. ROUTE 26 #MON LEAGUE RECEPTION GATE No more ships for me. Next time, I'm taking the MAGNET TRAIN. OLIVINE LIGHTHOUSE Also known as the GLITTER LIGHTHOUSE Wahahah! I'm the big loser! Hm… Good to see you here. Your arrival is most fortunate. I have something for you. Take this DRATINI as proof that I have recognized your worth. I love CLEFAIRY, but I could never catch one. So I'm making do with a # DOLL that I found. If you don't have a BICYCLE, you're not allowed to use the shortcut. We don't want you to fall into the sea, so you're not allowed in. OLIVINE PORT FAST SHIP PIER : Hi! Thanks a lot for the rail PASS! : Pardon? : Is it that fun to mimic my every move? I knew it. I knew you'd get to see the #MON of rainbow colors, . It happened just as I envisioned. My research isn't bad, I might say. I'm going to keep studying #MON to become a famous #MANIAC! Isn't it relaxing just floating like this? E-he-he-he… I got in trouble for playing in the basement of the DEPT.STORE. WELCOME TO VIRIDIAN CITY, THE GATEWAY TO INDIGO PLATEAU FUCHSIA CITY #MON GYM LEADER: JANINE The Poisonous Ninja Master MR.PSYCHIC'S HOUSE Oh, man… My boss is going to be steaming… The FARFETCH'D that CUTS trees for charcoal took off on me. I can't go looking for it here in the ILEX FOREST. It's too big, dark and scary for me… FAST SHIP S.S.AQUA has arrived in OLIVINE CITY. I hope you learn and grow from your journey. I give up. You don't have to look. Just forget about it! Your #MON style is stunning and colorful, I admit. You'll just keep getting better! Besides the sea, I can also swim in ponds and rivers. # BALLS are in stock! Now I can catch #MON! It feels great ordering #MON to commit crimes. You've won my respect. Utter failure… MR.#MON goes everywhere and finds rarities. Too bad they're just rare and not very useful… Isn't my barrette pretty? Oh. A #MON battle? Just as I thought! opened a book. Travel Tip 3: Open your PACK and press SELECT to move items. EUSINE: Hi! I'm back visiting my hometown. It's been quite a while. Oh, you're a cute trainer. Would you like to battle? #MON aren't tools of war. BLACKTHORN CITY A Quiet Mountain Retreat borrowed a BICYCLE. It's SUNNY DAY. It powers up fire- type moves for a while. Whew! This is one big town. I don't know where any- thing is. CINNABAR ISLAND The Fiery Town of Burning Desire wouldn't give a BERRY. MILTANK looks sad. When it rains, it's hard to get ignition… Dragon masters all come from the city of BLACKTHORN. Hey! I'm no train- er but I can give some advice! Believe me! If you believe, a championship dream can come true. You believe? Then listen. The grass-type is weak against the flying-type. Keep this in mind. The KANTO #MON FEDERATION will never fall! The link has been closed because of inactivity. Please contact your friend and come again. MR.#MON'S HOUSE received PLAINBADGE. What? That's not right. I found that when I was caring for someone's #MON before. But the trainer didn't want the EGG, so I'd kept it around. My #MON were caught and raised overseas. They're my compan- ions on those long voyages. People come from all over to pay their respects to the departed souls of #MON. Even though we're out on the sea, I can't fish! This is boring! Let's battle! NICK: Maybe you get a higher score for a #MON of an unusual color. You… Are you the trainer who is awaited by the legendary #MON? received EEVEE! TRAINER TIPS All #MON have pros and cons depending on their types. If their types differ, a higher- level #MON may lose in battle. Learn which types are strong and weak against your #MON's type. I-I understand… Not only are the KIMONO GIRLS great dancers, they're also skilled at #MON. I always challenge them, but I've never even left a scratch… You're working on a #DEX? That's really something. Don't give up! BROCK: Wow, it's not often that we get a challenger from JOHTO. I'm BROCK, the PEWTER GYM LEADER. I'm an expert on rock-type #MON. My #MON are im- pervious to most physical attacks. You'll have a hard time inflicting any damage. Come on! BIRD KEEPERS like me mimic bird whistles to com- mand #MON. I love my beautiful self! Who cares about #MON? Arooo! Voices in my head! Huh? I'm listening to my radio! My #MON has come to like you. All right, you should keep it. But promise to be good to it! Check out my #- MON. Just look at their coloring and their plumage. Oh, thank you! Take good care of it, please! You did OK today, but wait till next time! 4F PRODUCTION You're kidding. Tweet! Tweet! Tetweet! My SECRETPOTION is a tad too strong. I only offer it in an emergency. Trainers who seek power climb MT. SILVER despite its many dangers… With their trusted #MON, they must feel they can go anywhere… The sea is sweet! Sunsets on the sea are marvelous! Sing with me! Yo-ho! Blow the man down!… You looked strong. I was afraid to take you on… It's labeled SWITCH 1. Oh, no! They're so useless! I didn't study enough, I guess. Instead of a bug #MON, I found a trainer! received SECRETPOTION. This flying #- MON attacked its prey with saw-like fangs. Are you going to the BATTLE TOWER? This is a secret, but if you win a whole lot, you can win special gifts. Let's see if you have a match. got five @ ROUTE 46 MOUNTAIN RD. AHEAD ROUTE 29 CHERRYGROVE CITY - NEW BARK TOWN Sorry, . I saw how well you were doing, so I just hung back. Now all there is left to do is to turn off that odd radio signal. Yep, I see nothing wrong today. You be good and stay out of trouble. BENNY: I caught a SCYTHER before, but I didn't win. BLISSEY: Bliisii! My EEVEE evolved into an ESPEON. But my friend's EEVEE turned into an UMBREON. I wonder why? We both were raising our EEVEE in the same way… Uh-oh… The first #MON in your party can't battle. Please switch it with the #MON you want to use, then come see me. I heard that the GYM in CINNABAR is gone. I wonder what be- came of BLAINE, the GYM LEADER. It's a big com- puter. Hmm. It's broken. I should have used my MOON STONE… You know, night- time is fun in its own ways. But don't overdo it, OK? It's ON. Turn it OFF? Fine, we'll hold your other #MON while you compete. SABRINA: MARSH- BADGE draws out your subliminal powers… Although I failed to accurately pre- dict your power, this much I know to be true. You will become a celebrated and beloved CHAMPION! There are some odd stone panels in the RUINS OF ALPH. I've been given strict orders. I'm to crush any- one who challenges TEAM ROCKET! My dad's having a hard time learning the names of items and how they are supposed to be used… A sleeping #MON is lying in front of DIGLETT'S CAVE. It's a fantastic opportunity to get it, but how do you wake it up? See those islands that are blocked by whirlpools? There just has to be a secret! LANCE: Leave this side to me. I lost to a train- er named . He was really strong, but… It was as if he absolutely had to win at any cost. I felt sorry for his #MON. ROUTE 13 NORTH TO SILENCE BRIDGE CINDY: I love bug #MON. I guess you must like them too. I have a feeling that I can win. Let's see if I'm right! My mom worries so much about me, I have to phone her all the time. I want you to raise one of the #MON contained in these BALLS. You'll be that #MON's first partner, ! Go on. Pick one! JENN: So sorry, IRENE! Sis! KANTO has many good radio shows. Sorry. You don't have a rail PASS. LT.SURGE recog- nized my potential with electric #MON. Think you can beat me? Ouch, ouch, ouch! Teach FLY to your #MON. You will be able to FLY instantly to anywhere you have visited. TEAM ROCKET will keep going, wait- ing for the return of GIOVANNI. We'll do whatever it takes. That is DYNAMIC- PUNCH. It doesn't always hit, but when it does, it causes confusion! Deep inside far- off INDIGO PLATEAU is the #MON LEAGUE. I hear the best trainers gather there from around the country. DODRIO: Gii giii! Pant, pant… I'm going to beat you someday! …This hideout is done for… But that's fine. The broadcast ex- periment was a total success. It doesn't matter what happens to this hideout now. We have much big- ger plans. You'll come to appreciate TEAM ROCKET's true power soon enough. Enjoy yourself while you can… Fufufufu… I don't care that #MON are hurt by our experiment. … I lost while I had my eyes closed… Gwaaah! I was overpowered… Hey, you! Don't litter! I lost? I don't believe it. There must be some mistake… Hey! HUGH! If you walk in tall grass wearing shorts, do you get nicks and cuts? This will protect you. Take it. Waaaarggh! I'm beaten! However hard we battle, the TOWER will stand strong. Urrggh… The guy in the cape is incredibly tough… My #MON were hurt before even entering ROCK TUNNEL. I'd better take them to a #MON CENTER right away. Rattle trees with HEADBUTT. Some- times, sleeping #MON fall out. The stairs are right here. EUSINE: I dug a hole here, too… I was shocked! SUICUNE raced by like a blur, right in front of my eyes! For ten years I chased SUICUNE, and I finally got to see it. I'm all choked up! , I owe this all to you! Thank you! I heard that the legendary #MON of ECRUTEAK test chosen humans by allowing them to get close. I'm going to track SUICUNE. , let's meet again! Farewell! You came from OLIVINE? Do you remember the four islands along the way? I heard that a mythical sea crea- ture is hiding in them. Please come again. There's a big hole in the wall! A momentous event has occurred. I beg your pardon, but I must ask you to leave. …What soothes the soul… The WISE TRIO say things that are so very difficult to understand… Oh… To each his own, I suppose… Oh, how disap- pointing… Ah, it's good to be outside! I feel so free! Yo, CHAMP in making! A trainer as skilled as you doesn't need to be told how to deal with psychic-type #MON, right? I expect great things from you! Good luck! Whoo! Good stuff. Such darling #MON. Let's show our #MON together at the same time. Ah! You're chal- lenging the ELITE FOUR? Are you sure you're ready? If you need to train some more, my ABRA can help you. It can TELEPORT you home. Would you like to go home now? I can tell you're a good trainer by looking at you. I'm good at #- MON, and I can see that you are too. Shoot! Not good enough! I… I'm not bored anymore… PROF.OAK'S #MON TALK The Hottest Show on the Air! I… I can't find it… So this is the famous ELM #MON LAB… JASMINE used to use rock #MON like ONIX. Everyone Welcome! FIGHTING DOJO I'm JANINE! How did you know I was real? Let's battle! TOHJO FALLS THE LINK BETWEEN KANTO AND JOHTO Oh, honey. You're making a #DEX? It must be hard if #MON won't appear. Try using this TM. CELADON CITY #MON GYM LEADER: ERIKA The Nature-Loving Princess A vending machine for #MON dolls? Insert money, then turn the crank… But it's almost empty… TYROGUE is a fighting-type. It evolves into a tougher #MON. Keep up the hard work. I'll keep training too. Farewell! We, the WISE TRIO, are the protectors of the legendary #MON. If you're in the area, I hope you come visit again. OK! So was his name. Thanks for helping my investigation! Please step this way. ARTHUR: Who are you? I'm ARTHUR of Thursday. The TM SHOP sells some rare moves. Here, teacher I am. Good it is you study here! My dear #MON keep me company, so I don't ever feel lonely. MEOWTH even brings money home. Aack! You made me lose a POLIWAG! What are you going to do about it? BROCK: Your #- MON's powerful at- tacks overcame my rock-hard defense… You're stronger than I expected… Go ahead--take this BADGE. ERIKA: Losing leaves a bitter aftertaste… But knowing that there are strong trainers spurs me to do better… ROUTE 18 CELADON CITY - FUCHSIA CITY VIOLET CITY The City of Nostalgic Scents This is a #MON MART. They sell BALLS for catching wild #MON and other useful items. The MAGNET TRAIN is the most famous thing about SAF- FRON. Meanie. BILL: PROF.ELM claims EEVEE may evolve in new and unknown ways. The man at that house rates your #MON names. He can even rename your #MON. It's ATTRACT! It makes full use of a #MON's charm. Isn't it just per- fect for a cutie like me? I have to take so many tests, I don't have much time for #MON. So when I do get to play, I really concentrate. The EGG hatched! So, #MON are born from EGGS… No, perhaps not all #MON are. Wow, there's still a lot of research to be done. Please wait. What are your thoughts on rais- ing #MON? Did something happen to the forest's guardian? I'm confused too… The switch on the end is the one to press first, but… Do you know about the legendary bird #MON? Wow, look at all those BADGES! I'm impressed. But you're not satisfied by just collecting them, right? Hello, ! Did you come see me about my #- MON again? No? Oh… I had more tales to tell… A guy named BILL made the #MON PC storage system. I did my best but came up short. No excuses--I admit I lost. OAK #MON RESEARCH LAB Is it Daylight Saving Time now? Hiya, kid! I see you're new in MAHOGANY TOWN. Since you're new, you should try a yummy RAGECANDY- BAR! Right now, it can be yours for just ¥300! Want one? My training is incomplete… This isn't real! I'm the FISHING GURU's younger brother. I can see that you like fishing. There's no doubt in my mind at all! So? I know I'm right. Having a variety of #MON types should give you an edge in battle. I'm sure the KANTO GYM BADGES will help you. Hey, you don't have a COIN CASE. How am I supposed to give you any coins, kid? There was a loud noise outside… When we went to look, someone stole a #MON. It's unbelievable that anyone would do that! …sigh… That stolen #MON. I wonder how it's doing. They say a #MON raised by a bad person turns bad itself. Did you come here because of the rumors? You're ? I'm LANCE, a trainer like you. I heard some ru- mors, so I came to investigate… I saw the way you battled earlier, . I can tell that you're a trainer with considerable skill. If you don't mind, could you help me investigate? Oh, look at all your BADGES. No wonder I couldn't win! Yo, challenger! BUGSY's young, but his knowledge of bug #MON is for real. It's going to be tough without my advice. Let's see… Bug #MON don't like fire. Flying-type moves are super-effec- tive too. I thought I raised my #MON to be the best they could be… …But it still wasn't enough… I went to the GYM, raring for battles against trainers… It turns out, I stumbled into the unused GYM next door. Boy, I was pretty embarrassed. You still have @ …Thank you for your help at the LIGHTHOUSE… But this is dif- ferent. Please allow me to intro- duce myself. I am JASMINE, a GYM LEADER. I use the steel-type. …Do you know about the steel-type? It's a type that was only recently discovered. …Um… May I begin? NAME RATER Get Your #MON Nicknames Rated LANCE: Excellent! It seems that the LAKE's MAGIKARP are being forced to evolve. A mysterious radio broadcast coming from MAHOGANY is the cause. I'll be waiting for you, . Your Playground! GOLDENROD CITY GAME CORNER Excuse me! You didn't SAVE before exiting the BATTLE ROOM. I'm awfully sorry, but your challenge will be declared invalid. Ow! Stomped flat! By way of intro- duction, please accept this gift, a PINK BOW. PIDGEY: Pijji! You rotten brat! BUENA: Aww… That's not it… Did you forget the password? My dragon #MON lost? When you're with #MON, going anywhere is fun. Thanks for hearing me out. I want you to have this! I can run like the wind! opened a book. Travel Tip 2: Record your trip with SAVE! The FIGHTING DOJO next door was once this city's GYM. A vending machine with a prize rou- lette… You never see those anymore. What helps you to win battles? But… Please, I need your help! Who goes there? What are you up to? The LAKE hasn't been normal since those men wearing black arrived. Do you know the benefits of HIVE- BADGE? If you have it, #MON up to L30 will obey you, even traded ones. #MON that know CUT will be able to use it outside of battle too. Here, I also want you to have this. The FAST SHIP will sail on Wednesday. Hi. Do you have a rail PASS? I have one. All the peo- ple in SAFFRON who ride the MAGNET TRAIN have PASSES. received # DOLL. Why did those ancient patterns appear on the wall now? The mystery deepens… Oh… So you didn't get one good enough to show me? Maybe next time. You demonstrated on me! UNDERGROUND WARE- HOUSE? What do you want to go there for? There's nothing down there. In the distant past… This tower burned in a fire. Three nameless #MON perished in it. A rainbow-colored #MON descended from the sky and resurrected them… It's a legend that has been passed down by ECRUTEAK GYM LEADERS. Me? I was a trainer way back when. Hohoho! We're the KANTO #MON FEDERATION trainer group. We'll drive you under our wheels! Hey! You have a brand new kind of #DEX. Did PROF.OAK give that to you? Your skill is world class! It looks evil. How about this TM for it? Hey, did you get a DUNSPARCE? I caught one too. Take a look at it in the light. It's got a funny face! MILTANK became quite healthy! Whoa! You've got more zip than me! Hi! Will you play with me? …Oh! Grandpa's worried about me? I have to go! I have to go find Grandpa! I can't allow a nameless trainer past me! CLAIR would be livid if I did! FRIEDA: Yahoo! It's Friday! I'm FRIEDA of Friday! Nice to meet you! Please choose the #MON to be used in the Contest, then come see me. Have you gone to the #MON GYM? You can test your #MON and your- self there. It's a rite of passage for all trainers! CINNABAR GYM's BLAINE apparently lives alone in the SEAFOAM ISLANDS cave… ECRUTEAK CITY A Historical City Where the Past Meets the Present A strange tree is blocking the road. It wriggles around if you talk to it. I heard it became wild when someone watered it with a SQUIRTBOTTLE. FAST SHIP S.S.AQUA is en route to VERMILION CITY. We will make an announcement when we arrive. Oh, you collect #MON? My son BILL is an expert. He just got called to the #MON CENTER in ECRUTEAK CITY. My husband went off to the GAME CORNER without being called… Card flip… I prefer it over the slots because it's easier to figure the odds. But the payout is much lower. No! You made me wipe out! Nihihi! Would you like to battle my PIKACHU gang? JASMINE: …Oh, I'm so relieved… This is just so wonderful… Thank you so very, very much. …I will return to the GYM… The #MON GYM trainers here are macho bullies. If I stick around, they might come after me. Here's some ad- vice: the GYM LEADER uses the fighting-type. So you should confound him with psychic #MON. Wipe out his #- MON before they can use their physical strength. And those boulders in the middle of the GYM? If you don't move them correctly, you won't reach the GYM LEADER. If you get stuck, go outside. We martial artists fear nothing! DRATINI: Draa! Oh, that's great! Thank you, honey! Here, this is for you in return! How does the MAG- NET TRAIN work? Off to the #MON LEAGUE, are you? The ELITE FOUR are so strong it's scary, and they're ready for you! What? You had an accomplice? Where is your sense of honor? As the interim boss in place of GIOVANNI, I'll show you how wrong it is to meddle with TEAM ROCKET! You're kidding! Wha? Huh? I lost? How about that! You're worthy of STORMBADGE! You're wickedly tough! MYSTERY GIFT. With just a little beep, you get a gift. I'm FALKNER, the VIOLET #MON GYM leader! People say you can clip flying-type #MON's wings with a jolt of electricity… I won't allow such insults to bird #MON! I'll show you the real power of the magnificent bird #MON! Sorry. You weren't littering. It was my mistake. It's OFF. Turn it ON? Are you collecting KANTO GYM BADGES? I'm in a slump. Maybe it's the gear I'm using. Let's battle for a change of pace! RUINS OF ALPH VISITORS WELCOME This is a good time to brag about my PIKACHU! OBSERVATIONS ON #MON EVOLUTION …It says on the screen… FLASH! ROUTE 40 CIANWOOD CITY - OLIVINE CITY Rocked and rolled over! Would you like to heal your #MON? Sorry. Only those trainers who will be battling are allowed to go in. Use this gate to avoid walking in the grass. I'm not much good at thinking, see? So, I just plow ahead with power! I might be an ex- pert angler, but I stink as a #- MON trainer… My TEDDIURSA! The weather is so beautiful, I'm in a daze! Sorry! You need more coins. : Hi. You must like #MON. : No, not me. I asked you. : Pardon? You're weird! It's this machine I want. It cleaned me out yesterday, so it should pay out today. Behold my graceful BALL dexterity! How the heck do you go up? I want to visit the sick #MON, but I can't get up there… You must be getting tired. That BADGE! It's from VIOLET CITY! You beat FALKNER? I came through the tunnel, but I still have plenty of energy left. I'm beat! I get to help Grandpa now! We'll make good BALLS for you, so please wait! Oooh, your #MON are so appealing. The grass is full of clingy things. Too strong! We must watch you… I lost too… Oh… Now what to do? Bingo! You got it! Congratulations! Here's your prize, a RADIO CARD! Let me try some- thing I learned today. Gwaaah! You! How dare you enter uninvited! Where are you off to with #MON? #MON LEAGUE? Are your #MON loyal enough for you to win? Let me see… BLUE: What? How the heck did I lose to you? … Tch, all right… Here, take this-- it's EARTHBADGE. SABRINA: Your love for your #MON overwhelmed my psychic power… The power of love, I think, is also a kind of psychic power… Oh, you are very strong. Wow! This one is outstanding! …I wish I could say that, but I've seen a bigger one before. If the #MON I liked were there, I'd go anywhere. That's what a real trainer does. It's a photo of a huge grassy plain with rare #MON frolicking in it. ERIKA is a master of grass #MON. She'll make you pay if you don't watch yourself. There are #MON GYMS in cities and towns ahead. You should test your skills at these GYMS. I'm going to train harder to become the greatest bird master! I know a couple who run a #MON DAY-CARE service. They gave me that EGG. I was intrigued, so I sent mail to PROF.ELM. For #MON evolu- tion, PROF.ELM is the authority. Hahahah! Huh? How did this happen? …Darn! My dad's cherished bird #MON… All right. Take this. It's the official #MON LEAGUE ZEPHYRBADGE. There used to be a cave here that had horribly powerful #MON in it. If I take that #MON from you, what are you going to use in battle? The ELDER's HM lights even pitch- black darkness. We adore our #- MON, even if they dislike us. That's what being a FAN is about. You can cash in your saved points for a lovely prize of your choice! There's a movie on TV: Stars dot the sky as two boys ride on a train… I'd better get rolling too! Ah! So you're the who solved the POWER PLANT's problem? Thanks to you, I never lost my job. I tell you, you're a real lifesaver! Please take this as my thanks. Studying is impor- tant, but exercise is just as vital. CIANWOOD CITY PHOTO STUDIO Take a Snapshot as a Keepsake! Thanks to your work on the #- DEX, the PROF's research is coming along great. A #MON I caught had an item. I think it's MYSTIC WATER. I don't need it, so do you want it? Land ho! Gotta keep going! That glance… It's intriguing. Way to go! received MARSHBADGE. You've earned my respect, so here's some advice. It's not too late. You can still turn back. Something's wrong in ILEX FOREST… You should stay away right now. Whew… I'm taking a rest from #MON battles. I guess I can't win if I don't get serious. As a token of our friendship, I have a gift for you! We drink MOOMOO MILK every day. …Why… Why do I lose? I've assembled the toughest #MON. I didn't ease up on the gas. So why do I lose? Using items on them makes #- MON happy. They hate certain items, though… It's a shiny new BICYCLE! Losses… They're there too! A good trainer can recognize other good trainers. I'm trying to see how far I can go using just bug #MON. Don't let there be any fire #MON… MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL, WHO'S THE FAIREST ONE OF ALL? I take walks in the PARK, but I never go into the grass. Trainers always want to battle… By having FOG- BADGE, #MON up to L50 will obey you. Also, #MON that know SURF will be able to use that move anytime. I want you to have this too. My bug #MON are tough. Prepare to lose! Hey, listen. I have an acquain- tance called MR. #MON. He keeps finding weird things and raving about his discoveries. Anyway, I just got an e-mail from him saying that this time it's real. It is intriguing, but we're busy with our #MON research… Wait! I know! , can you go in our place? I'm not good enough yet… All right. This BADGE is yours. received EARTHBADGE. Oh, no! I just can't win… I want to go to SAFFRON to see the MAGNET TRAIN. Good of you to have come. Here in ECRUTEAK, #MON have been revered. It's said that a rainbow-colored #MON will come down to appear before a truly powerful trainer. I believed that tale, so I have secretly trained here all my life. As a result, I can now see what others cannot. Just a bit more… With a little more, I could see a future in which I meet the #MON of rainbow colors. You're going to help me reach that level! Hold it there, kiddo! The toll is ¥1000 to go through. Freshly caught #MON are no match for properly raised ones. If poisoned, a #MON steadily loses HP. Poison lingers after the battle, and HP is lost as you walk. To cure it, use an ANTIDOTE. ECRUTEAK CITY #MON GYM LEADER: MORTY The Mystic Seer of the Future Ah, that was a good cry! Come for a visit again! Bye-bye! ANN: I can tell what my sister and my #MON are thinking. She recently lost the # DOLL that a boy gave her three years ago. Ever since then, she's gotten even better at mimicry… Go… Go away! By experiencing tough battles, you gain power. Welcome to CABLE TRADE CENTER. You may trade your #MON here with a friend. Would you like to trade? Life is delight- ful! Always, new discoveries to be made! LILY's nice, but MARY's the best! I want to check out JOHTO's radio programs! You're collecting every single kind of #MON? That must be quite a challenge, but it sounds fun too. The World is a Cycle Path! BIKE SHOP OAK: Ah, ! It's good of you to come all this way to KANTO. What do you think of the trainers out here? Pretty tough, huh? KANTO's POWER PLANT? It's near the end of ROUTE 9, the road that heads east from here. I think there was an accident of some sort there. I heard this lake was made by ram- paging GYARADOS. I wonder if there is any connection to their mass out- break now? Man, you are truly tough… That was a heck of an inspirational battle. It brought tears to my eyes. Crunch… Crunch… …Zzzz… Huh? What's that? You have MAIL for me? The sink is spot- less. Mom likes it clean. That's how you do it. If you weaken them first, #MON are easier to catch. What's most impor- tant in our every- day lives? The generator's up and running. It's making electricity to spare. The POWER PLANT's MANAGER is looking for a strong #- MON trainer. He needs help getting back something that was stolen. Thanks! This is a token of my appreciation. Whoa! You made me lose that fish! Fishing is great! If there's water, be it the sea or a stream, try out your ROD. That's odd. A #MON GYM can be anywhere as long as the GYM LEADER is there. There's no need for a building. ELDER: You are in- deed skilled as a trainer. As promised, here is your HM. But let me say this: You should treat your #MON better. The way you battle is far too harsh. #MON are not tools of war… There's no cheat- ing in #MON. Let's keep it fair and square! RUINS OF ALPH A Look-and-Touch Tourist Site Try the sliding stone panels! CIANWOOD CITY A Port Surrounded by Rough Seas You're amazing, ! No wonder #MON gravitate to you. I get it now. I'm going to keep searching for SUICUNE. I'm sure we'll see each other again. See you around! Come taste the true terror of TEAM ROCKET! Are you a trainer? I've got a useful phone number for you. I can dream, but I can't ever fly… KIPP: I study a lot, but that's not good enough to win. My grandma is into warding off what she believes to be evil spirits. I'm sorry that she startled you. received #DEX! RED'S HOUSE Hello! KARATE KING, the FIGHTING DOJO's master, is in a cave in JOHTO for training. OK! I'm No. 5. I'll stomp you! I'll be swimming quietly. The door's closed… entered the password. The door opened! I'd be happy just to own a single rare #MON. BUENA: Oh? You forgot to bring your BLUE CARD? I can't give you points if you don't have it. The legendary #MON are said to embody three powers… The lightning that struck the TOWER. The fire that burned the TOWER. And the rain that put out the fire… ROUTE 19 FUCHSIA CITY - SEAFOAM ISLANDS Sorry, my mistake. My NIDOKING did pretty right on! LANCE: That did it. We defeated all the ROCKETS here. But I'm concerned about the young guy I battled in the process… The currents keep me from reaching that island. Patience is the key to both fish- ing and #MON. GAME FREAK DEVELOPMENT ROOM That TM contains ICY WIND. It inflicts damage and lowers speed. It demonstrates the harshness of winter. My #MON lost… My… my pride is shattered… #MON are smart. They won't obey a trainer they don't respect. Without the right GYM BADGES, they will just do as they please. Please come in. I wonder if there are any mountains worth climbing in KANTO? It's labeled SWITCH 2. GRIMER have been appearing lately. See that pond out in front of the house? GRIMER live there now. Where did they come from? This is a serious problem… SLOWPOKE WELL Also known as the RAINMAKER WELL. Locals believe that a SLOWPOKE's yawn summons rain. Records show that a SLOWPOKE's yawn ended a drought 400 years ago. Come home to adjust your clock for Daylight Saving Time. By the way, do you know how to use the PHONE? Bug #MON are deep. There are many mysteries to be explored. Study your favor- ites thoroughly. , long time, no see. PROF.ELM asked me to find you. He has another favor to ask. Would you take the #MON EGG? Eeyaaaah! I sense a sinister shadow hovering over you. Take this to ward it off! JASMINE: …I see… TM37 happens to be SANDSTORM. It's a move that inflicts damage on both battlers. It's for advanced trainers only. Use it if you dare. Good luck! ZUBAT: Zuba zubaa. Hah! Your #MON sure look like lightweights! They don't have the power to move boulders aside. Here, use this and teach them STRENGTH! Hold it! I saw you, so I tailed you. I don't need you underfoot while I take care of TEAM ROCKET. …Wait a second. You beat me be- fore, didn't you? That was just a fluke. But I repay my debts! KURT: It'll take a day to make you a BALL. Come back for it later. I give! Having lost, I have no right to say anything… Go face your next challenge! The radio trans- mitter has finally stopped its evil broadcast. I guess you can't become the CHAMP unless you go all over the place and battle all kinds of people. The CHAMPION from PALLET traveled to all the cities and towns in KANTO. JOSH: I heard that somebody won with a CATERPIE! TM42 contains DREAM EATER… …Zzzzz… I'm sorry--the BATTLE MACHINE is being adjusted. BLAINE: I did lose this time, but I'm going to win the next time. When I rebuild my CINNABAR GYM, we'll have to have a rematch. The blackboard describes #MON status changes in battle. received a #MON. Do you know about APRICORNS? Crack one open, hollow it out and fit it with a special device. Then you can catch #MON with it. Before # BALLS were invented, everyone used APRICORNS. 's #DEX was upgraded. Don't you think my #MON and I are beautiful? looks content. Why? How could we lose? You don't want it? Come again, hear? To get to PRYCE, our GYM LEADER, you need to think before you skate. There are lots of #MON in KANTO. I wish I could go… We HIKERS are at our best in the mountains. I love #MON! That's why I started--and why I'll keep on col- lecting #MON! Why don't girls like bug #MON? Do your #MON already know the move for carrying people on water? I'd rather pet my babies than this! Sure, we've been hacking the tails off SLOWPOKE and selling them. Everything we do is for profit. That's right! We're TEAM ROCKET, and we'll do any- thing for money! Soon I'm going to get permission from our MASTER to use dragons. When I do, I'm going to become an admirable dragon trainer and gain our MASTER's approval. Do you listen to LUCKY CHANNEL? If you want to win, trade #MON with as many peo- ple as possible to get different ID numbers. Although you can't see it from here, CIANWOOD is across the sea. Members of our dragon-user clan can use dragon #MON only after our MASTER allows it. What's the matter? Is it too much to expect of you? I'm glad I got to see your #MON! Hmmmm… This isn't right. PIKACHU is it! Don't you agree? Fufufufu… I see it clearly. I can see into your soul! There's something I really want, but I don't have the necessary cash… Maybe I'll sell off the BERRIES I've collected… What do you know! A visitor! We hope to see you again! Three years ago, TEAM ROCKET was forced to disband. But we're making a comeback here! ECRUTEAK DANCE THEATER Look at my darling BAYLEEF! The leaf on its head is so cute! I think electric- ity is the most important thing in our daily lives. If it weren't, people wouldn't have made such a fuss when the POWER PLANT went out of commission. The door's closed… entered the two passwords. The door opened! Losing feels in- significant if you look up at the big sky! My grandpa is the SAFARI ZONE WAR- DEN. At least he was… He decided to go on a vacation and took off overseas all by himself. He quit running SAFARI ZONE just like that. Maybe I should take one to a DAY- CARE. Or maybe use some items… MONICA: I don't think today is Monday. How sad… I, I, I'm really impatient! I use X SPEED in battle to speed up my #MON. #MON! #MON CHANNEL… All kinds of peo- ple around the world live happily with #MON. ELM #MON LAB The KIMONO GIRLS are so beautiful… But they have to go through rigor- ous training. And they have to learn to follow customs before ap- pearing in public. But if you love something, any- thing is possible. We use only ghost- type #MON. No normal-type attack can harm them! Hey! Want to have a speed battle? JASMINE uses the newly discovered steel-type. I don't know very much about it. You came at just the right time. Let's battle. I know there's a new BIKE SHOP, but I can't find it anywhere. The water's warm here. I'm loose and limber. Sure, I'll take you on! I'm thinking about going shopping in SAFFRON. Wait! Stop! Don't! Please! There are sure to be TMs that are just perfect for your #MON. RUINS OF ALPH NORTH ENTRANCE Every time I come back to OLIVINE, I visit the GYM. The GYM LEADER's #MON type has changed without me noticing. They have bargain sales here every so often. IRENE: My sister KATE will get you for this! A little girl who is an expert at mimicking people lives here. She even mimics the people she's conversing with. It's confusing. Oh, everything is so cheap! I bought so much, my PACK's crammed! I've repaid my debt to you. With my #MON, I'm going to beat the CHAMPION and become the world's greatest trainer. PROF.OAK'S #MON TALK! Please tune in next time! JOSH: I… I can't believe I lost at bug-catching… Want to go into a BATTLE ROOM? …I will tell you the truth… Fine. I lost. Hey! THE # SEER AHEAD To the north of LAVENDER is ROCK TUNNEL. Go through it to get to the POWER PLANT. … TRAINER TIPS Print out MAIL by opening it then pressing START. Strong #MON. Weak #MON. Which is more important? My #MON is preparing the land for construction. But I have no money to start the project… The weird tree doesn't like the SQUIRTBOTTLE! The weird tree attacked! I believe you are being tested. Free your mind from uncertainty, and advance. If the POWER PLANT isn't running, the MAGNET TRAIN won't run either… It also means the RADIO STATION can't broadcast… To add to your #DEX, you have to catch #MON. Throw # BALLS at wild #MON to get them. Darn! I forgot that I predicted I would lose to you. This is where I do my training! LANCE told you that he'd like to see you again? Not a chance! ! Use these on your #DEX quest! I must go to the #MON SALON and fix them up nice! You don't have it? That's too bad… ROUTE 31 VIOLET CITY - CHERRYGROVE CITY Welcome! I'm here to buy SURF MAIL to send to my girlfriend. Crunch… Crunch… I can keep eating! It's important to have conviction on your side. Oh… Well, another time, then. At night, CLEFAIRY come out to play at MT.MOON. But not every night. RHYDON: Gugooh! Oh, fine then… The FAST SHIP sails on Wednes- days and Sundays every week. TIN TOWER may be entered by those bearing ECRUTEAK's GYM BADGE. However, now that SUICUNE, RAIKOU and ENTEI have arisen, I ask you to refrain from entering! BILL: My pop, he won't work. All he does is goof off all day long. He's getting to be a real headache… The two TOWERS are said to have been built to foster friendship and hope between #- MON and people. That was 700 years ago, but the ideal still remains important today. Uwww… I blew it. This is MAIL I got from my daughter. It cheers me up. I… asked my girl- friend to swim to FUCHSIA… Gasp… Welcome to #MON LEAGUE, . Allow me to intro- duce myself. I am WILL. I have trained all around the world, making my psychic #MON powerful. And, at last, I've been accepted into the ELITE FOUR. I can only keep getting better! Losing is not an option! You can't trade in points without your BLUE CARD. Don't forget your BLUE CARD! I was hoping to buy some SAFARI ZONE souvenirs, but it's closed… Anywhere, Anytime #MON Radio Well, aren't you good. I like that in a trainer. Is that so? Then study shall you! Follow me! MONICA: It's an item that raises the power of fly- ing-type moves. You should equip a bird #MON with that item. I'm going to KANTO to test my skills. Dad works at SILPH where he studies # BALLS. I have to stay home with Grandpa and SLOWPOKE. Hold it. You're going to take the #MON LEAGUE challenge now? That's not going to happen. My super-well- trained #MON are going to pound you. ! I challenge you! LANCE: Hm? Are you going to help me? My #MON just got a haircut! I'll show you how strong it is! A higher level #MON doesn't always win. After all, it may have a type dis- advantage. I don't think there is a single #MON that is the toughest. I'm the CHAIRMAN of the #MON FAN CLUB. I've raised over 150 #MON. I'm very fussy when it comes to #MON. Did you visit just to hear about my #MON? You came out from JOHTO? You can zip back home if the MAGNET TRAIN's running. I saw a wiggly tree up ahead! If you touch it, it squirms and dances! Cool! I see you're rais- ing your #MON with care. The bond you build will save you in tough situations. Everyone's having fun battling! You should too! Your PACK is jammed full. You won? Great! I was busy admiring the ladies here. Just like in fish- ing, it's all over in #MON if you give up. Customize Your #MON 5F TM CORNER Ghosts are rumored to appear in SPROUT TOWER. They said normal- type #MON moves had no effect on ghosts. I lost, but I feel better anyway. There's a place called TRAINER HOUSE in VIRIDIAN where trainers gather from all over the place. Aww, no! You're too good for me. Tch! I took you too lightly! The RUINS hide a huge secret! …I think… I am CLAIR. The world's best dragon master. I can hold my own against even the #MON LEAGUE's ELITE FOUR. Do you still want to take me on? …Fine. Let's do it! As a GYM LEADER, I will use my full power against any opponent! But you don't just look cool… Look how adorable my PHANPY acts! Isn't it cute enough to make your heart melt? A #MON that flew gracefully on rainbow-colored wings. I heard a #MON was stolen here… I was just getting some information from PROF.ELM. Apparently, it was a young male with long, red hair… What? You battled a trainer like that? Did you happen to get his name? I know PRYCE's secret. Huh? The #MON I just got is hold- ing something! We run 24 hours a day to broadcast entertaining pro- grams. I'll do my best to run around the clock too! If you have that #MON, may I see it, please? MR.#MON lives a little bit beyond CHERRYGROVE, the next city over. It's almost a direct route there, so you can't miss it. But just in case, here's my phone number. Call me if anything comes up! You're just a kid, but you're not to be underestimated either. I came too far out. I'd better phone home! Aww, you are too strong. It's locked… This DEPT.STORE makes me realize that GOLDENROD is a big city. The selection here is unmatched any- where else. The GRAPHIC ARTIST will print out a DIPLOMA for you. You should go show it off. Whaaat? You don't like to fish!? Incomprehensible! Hay fever is making me sneeze! Ahahah-CHOO! The MASTER BALL is the best! It's the ultimate BALL! It'll catch any #MON with- out fail. It's given only to recognized #MON researchers. I think you can make much better use of it than I can, ! Excuse me, kid! Can you do a guy a favor? Can you take this #MON with MAIL to my friend? He's on ROUTE 31. I'll just go back to fishing… You can't climb ledges. But you can jump down from them to take a shortcut. Wasn't there a hit song about a boy riding a LAPRAS? A #MON I've never seen before fell out of the tree when I used HEADBUTT. I ought to use HEADBUTT in other places too. I heard that you can only see it if you have a SILVER WING. It must have the same scent as the creature. I'm going to train a bit more before I break for lunch. Next up, opponent no.@ …sigh… I moved here, but I can't sell my BICYCLES. Why is that? Could you ride a BICYCLE and adver- tise for me? Yeah! I'm finally getting a PORYGON! I'm no good at the slots, so I could never get enough coins… …Huh? The traded PORYGON turned into a dif- ferent #MON! CINDY: You won? That's great! Do you feel like looking for bug #MON with me? I'm the DAY-CARE MAN. Do you know about EGGS? I was raising #MON with my wife, you see. We were shocked to find an EGG! How incredible is that? Well, wouldn't you like this EGG? Then fine, this is yours to keep! TRAINER TIPS No stealing other people's #MON! # BALLS are to be thrown only at wild #MON! PEWTER CITY #MON GYM LEADER: BROCK The Rock Solid #MON Trainer What's the secret to your strength? Do you know that hugely popular #MON? The #MON that has a yellow body and red cheeks.

Better get going-- no time to lose! A #MON CENTER near a cave? That's mighty convenient. RELAXATION SQUARE NATIONAL PARK Could I ask for your cooperation? ELM: ! There you are! I called because I have something for you. See? It's an S.S.TICKET. Now you can catch #MON in KANTO. Here's a POISON BARB for you! You're from JOHTO, aren't you? How do you like KANTO? It's nice, don't you agree? Who are you? Well, it's plain to see that you're a trainer… My name's BLUE. I was once the CHAMPION, although it was for only a short time… That meddling RED did me in… Anyway, what do you want? You want to challenge me or something? …I hate to say it, but I'm not in the mood for a battle now. Take a good look around you… A volcano erupts, and just like that, a whole town disappears. We can go on win- ning and losing in #MON. But if nature so much as twitches, we can lose in a second. … That's the way it is… But, anyway, I'm still a trainer. If I see a strong opponent, it makes me want to battle. If you want to battle me, come to the VIRIDIAN GYM. I'll take you on then. I wanted to take a break, so I saved to record my progress. I lose my passion for work if some- one's watching. Come on, kid, scoot! It's great. I can store any number of #MON, and it's all free. If you're tired, try the vending machine's drinks. Your #MON will love them too. Darn… I thought you were weak… You look so ele- gant, riding your #MON. I couldn't foresee your power… BLUE: Yo! Finally got here, huh? I wasn't in the mood at CINNABAR, but now I'm ready to battle you. … You're telling me you conquered all the GYMS in JOHTO? Heh! JOHTO's GYMS must be pretty pathetic then. Hey, don't worry about it. I'll know if you are good or not by battling you right now. Ready, JOHTO CHAMP? …You are a better trainer than me, in both skill and kindness. In accordance with LEAGUE rules, I confer upon you this BADGE. OLIVINE CITY The Port Closest to Foreign Lands Did my eyes de- ceive me? I saw a red GYARADOS in the LAKE… But I thought GYARADOS were usually blue? Bug #MON are cool and tough! I'll prove it to you! OAK: Hmm? You're not collecting KANTO GYM BADGES? The GYM LEADERS in KANTO are as tough as any you battled in JOHTO. I recommend that you challenge them. We won't let you ruin our plans for our comeback! Oh. That's rather disappointing… TRAINER TIPS BERRY trees grow new BERRIES every day. Make a note of which trees bear which BERRIES. MAY: Our bug #- MON lost! Oh, what a shame. We're on a field trip to LAVENDER RADIO TOWER for social studies. …Humph! This is why I hate battling wimps. It's just a waste of my time. ELM: Think it over carefully. Your partner is important. CLEFAIRY: Clef cleff! Waaaargh! I like the #MON Lullaby they play on the radio. This is SILPH CO., famous for #MON merchandise. In the past, TEAM ROCKET wanted the company because of that. Hmmm… All grand plans come with snags. Don't get too com- fortable about beating me… LT.SURGE is tough. I love MARY, from #MON TALK. I only know what she sounds like, though. Don't get cocky, you JOHTO punk! Arrgh… You found the secret stair- way… Wow! This one is outstanding! I tip my hat to you! Take this as a memento! All right! We can finally get the MAGNET TRAIN running again. Oohah! Oohah! The stuff on the ground's junk. Take it if you want it! I wouldn't lose to you in skiing! It's this machine that's causing all the problems. I don't see a switch on it… We have no choice. We have to make all the ELECTRODE faint. That should stop this machine from transmitting that strange signal. It's no fault of the #MON, so it makes me feel guilty. , let's split the job. S-sorry! We hope to see you again. At night, the sea turns black. It feels like it will swallow you up. CHERRYGROVE CITY The City of Cute, Fragrant Flowers BUENA: Yup! Our contestant was . Thanks for coming! I hope all you listeners will come too! I'll be waiting! Did I screw up my training? …A young PROF. OAK? Wait! He-he-he. We're making a bundle. Everyone wants to see what's going on up at LAKE OF RAGE. handed the MYSTERY EGG to PROF.ELM. Heheh! The experi- ment worked like a charm. MAGIKARP are just worthless, but GYARADOS are big moneymakers. My name's ???. I'm going to be the world's great- est #MON trainer. has no BERRIES… OK! I'll make it look cool! I found some good #MON in the grass! I think they'll do it for me! 4F STUDIO 2 Your #MON will like you more if you give them haircuts. It looks really happy! It must love you a lot. Are you a trainer? Let's have a practice battle. Oh, no, no, no! ROUTE 11 PRYCE is some- thing, but you're something else! That was a hot battle that bridged the gen- eration gap! Arrgh… That's a shocking loss… The record is the important thing. Think of that as a bonus! I heard a rumor about OLIVINE LIGHTHOUSE. The #MON that serves as the beacon fell ill. Sounds like they are in trouble. PSYDUCK: Gu-guwa? No matter what I do, all I catch are the same #- MON… Ah, my grandson mentioned a round, green #MON that has leaves growing on its head. Don't tell anyone, but PROF.OAK'S #MON TALK isn't a live broadcast. OK. Please save your coins and come again! BUENA: Sorry… You get just one chance each day. Come back tomorrow for another try! Once upon a time, there was a little boy who was given a new BICYCLE… He wanted to try it right away… He was having so much fun that he didn't notice the sun had set… While riding home in the pitch-black night, the bike suddenly slowed! The pedals became heavy! When he stopped pedaling, the bike began slipping backwards! It was as if the bike were cursed and trying to drag him into oblivion! … … SHRIEEEEK! The boy had been riding uphill on CYCLING ROAD! … Ba-dum ba-dum! For listening so patiently, you may take this--TM03! The #GEAR was placed near the sleeping SNORLAX… … SNORLAX woke up! If a trainer spots another trainer, he has to make a challenge. That is our destiny. The POWER PLANT is across a small river. A FISHER caught a lot of MAGIKARP… They're SPLASHing at the same time! Look at the water going everywhere! We were held up by robbers before. Aww! There's no games here! I wanted to play… … OK--I lost… There's something written here. Read it? If someone brags, brag right back! ROUTE 43 LAKE OF RAGE - MAHOGANY TOWN You saved all the SLOWPOKE? Whew, you're mighty! But my grown-up #MON are pretty tough too! By using a TM, a #MON will instantly learn a new move. Think before you act--a TM can be used only once. TM31 contains MUD-SLAP. It reduces the enemy's accuracy while it causes damage. In other words, it is both defensive and offensive. Your Travel Companion 2F TRAINER'S MARKET I plan to fish off VERMILION's pier. Blast it! I raise #MON too! Will you battle with me? It's labeled SWITCH 3. To use the TRADE CORNER or read the #MON NEWS, you need to phone the MOBILE CENTER. You must register at the MOBILE CENTER before connecting there. Let's see… Oops, it's over?

MURKROW: The password is… HAIL GIOVANNI. Wow, the BATTLE TOWER is huge! There must be many kinds of #MON in there! I always play this slot machine. It pays out more than others, I think. Psychic power is the power of your soul. The GYM LEADER here is totally cool. That man's always with his RHYDON. Says he wants a #MON that can SURF and dance. Is he trying to make a synchro- nized swimming #MON? GOLDENROD CITY #MON GYM LEADER: WHITNEY The Incredibly Pretty Girl! Call your mom on your #GEAR to let her know how you're doing. …Yeah, and the GYM in CINNABAR's gone. I was really amazed. …Yes? I'm on the phone. Go away! Welcome! We exchange your coins for fabulous prizes! I'm done for! received MINERALBADGE. MONICA: My broth- ers and sisters are all over the place. See if you could find them all!

The GYM LEADER is a guy who battled the CHAMPION three years ago. He's no pushover. Give it everything you've got! Congratulations! You've beaten all the trainers! For that, you get this great prize! A GREAT BALL is better for catch- ing #MON than a # BALL. But KURT's might be better some- times. I heard that a red GYARADOS appeared at the LAKE. That's odd, since even ordinary GYARADOS are rare in that lake… Oh! I've got to relieve my anger! Swimming exercises your full body. It's really good for you. MISTY: You really are good… I'll admit that you are skilled… Here you go. It's CASCADEBADGE. Hey! Do you have any rare #MON? Let me see if you are good enough to face FALKNER! DAY-CARE LET US RAISE YOUR #MON FOR YOU! We had plenty of rest at lunch, so now we're all ready to go again! We're going to train again! I've been hearing laughter on the radio… It's creepy. Hey! Some trainers are battling on the road! A #MON fired a flurry of leaves! That makes me feel like battling right now! Grandpa, here I am! I was playing with the CAPTAIN and this guy! Would you like to trade over a GAME LINK cable or by mobile phone? The flyer's torn. It's impossible to read… Oh. I couldn't win… My daughter will be delighted! My radio's busted? Lately, I only get this weird signal. AMY: You're really strong! You're a rookie trainer, aren't you? I can tell! That's OK! Every- one is a rookie at some point!

I wanted to battle JASMINE, but she's not up to it now. So, how about you? Please come back next week for the next LUCKY NUMBER. Incompatible rooms were chosen. SLOWPOKETAILS grow back fast! What's wrong with selling them? DIGLETT'S CAVE Are you seeking the secrets of WHIRL ISLANDS? TEAM ROCKET is no longer in KANTO. That alone makes me happy. Kwahaha! Confounded by the shutters, are we? I'll let you in on a secret if you can beat me! LAVENDER TOWN The Noble Purple Town The UNOWN you catch will all be recorded. Check to see how many kinds exist.

You should keep an ANTIDOTE with you. Uh-oh… CLAIR is going to be mad… I have to watch out for blemishes caused by the sun. #MON GEAR, or just #GEAR. It's essential if you want to be a good trainer. Oh, the day of the week isn't set. You mustn't forget that! … Hnuurg… Huh? I walked too far today looking for #MON. My feet hurt and I'm sleepy… If I were a wild #MON, I'd be easy to catch… …Zzzz… 5F DIRECTOR'S OFFICE CELADON MANSION MANAGER'S SUITE I'm checking out pre- and post- evolution #MON. Evolution really does make #MON stronger. But evolved forms also learn moves later on. Geological fea- tures don't appear to change. But they actually change, little by little. I mistook you for someone else… OK. Here's the MAGNET TRAIN PASS like I promised! Along the way to CIANWOOD, there are four deserted islands. Bad kids are taken to the islands as punishment! tried to show the S.S. TICKET… …But no TICKET! Sorry! You may board only if you have an S.S.TICKET. Do you think a girls-only GYM is rare? It's my #MON's fire that lights up this cave. Eatathon Contest! No time limit! A battle without end! The biggest muncher gets it all for free! Nihihi! This GYM is great! Only girls are allowed here! Urrgggh! Go wherever you'd like! Get lost! See if I care! Men of the sea are always spoiling for a good fight! Win or lose, my break's over! TM03 is CURSE. It's a terrifying move that slowly whittles down the victim's HP. You must be hoping to battle more people, right? There's apparently some place where trainers gather. Where, you ask? It's a little past OLIVINE CITY. Whoa, amazing! You're an expert on #MON! My research isn't complete yet. OK, you win. Take this BADGE. I lost on my home field… MARY: Please tune into me on PROF. OAK'S #MON TALK show. …. The road to the championship will be a long one. Before you leave, make sure that you talk to your mom. COPYCAT: That's the PASS for the MAGNET TRAIN. The rail company man gave me that when they tore down our old house for the STATION. Why can't I catch any good #MON? What is the source of your power? Oh, I see now. The girl who lost this # DOLL is sad… OK. Could you take this # DOLL back to that poor little girl? I'll befriend a real CLEFAIRY on my own one day. No worries! Man! You're as tough as ever! Anyway, here's that medicine from before. TM50 is NIGHTMARE. It's a wicked move that steadily cuts the HP of a sleep- ing enemy. Ooooh… That's scary… I don't want to have bad dreams. If you're looking for #MON, you have to look in the tall grass. I've been lost for a long time… I don't mind it here, but I am soooo hungry! WILLIAM: You're the winner? What did you catch? Aaack! CERULEAN CITY A Mysterious Blue Aura Surrounds It The SLOWPOKE are gone… Were they taken away by bad people? LANCE: It takes two passwords to get into the boss's quarters. Those passwords are known only to a few ROCKETS. That ROCKET there very graciously told me so. , let's go get the passwords. NIDORINO: Gyun! Do you see it? It is HIDDEN POWER! It draws out the power of #MON for attacking. Remember this: its type and power de- pend on the #- MON using it. Wow! Right again! Here's the final question: Do GOLDENROD GAME CORNER's slots have CHARMANDER on their reels? The COPYCAT girl looked unhappy. She said she lost her favorite # DOLL--CLEFAIRY. ELM: Hey, has that EGG changed any? Humph. This is my real power, wimp. I'll make TEAM ROCKET history. And I'm going to grind that LANCE under my heels. You've no room for this. Good, good. Yes, I was something out of the ordinary, let me tell you! NIDORAN: Gau gau! Yikes! Not fast enough!
