- THE INTRO
First you will be presented on your title screen, so press START (there is a cool music though, but press START). Choose NEW GAME and continue, after PROF. OAK speaks he will ask you to type your name and your rival's name in, you can either choose one default name or type your own. Then press start and you can begin playing!(FINNALY!).
- PALLET TOWN
You'll wake up in your house, so start exploring your room, and play SNES(jeje)... Withdraw the POTION that is in your(VERY OWN) PC, Then go downstairs, talk to your MOM, and she will tell you something about PROF. OAK calling you, after she finishes, go outside... explore, walk and talk there, after you finish talking, with everyone head north and PROF. OAK will call your attention, so he will ask you to follow him. He will escort you to his lab, so talk to PROF. OAK, after that he will let you to choose a POK鍏N of your very own...(Woo Hoo!) There are 3 POK鍏N to choose from:
- BULBASAUR: Plant/Poison type POK鍏N
- CHARMANDER: Fire type POK鍏N
- SQUIRTLE: Water type POK鍏N(Personally I chose BULBASAUR, because he is cool) Choose anyone you like, and Your rival will pick ALWAYS the POK鍏N to the right of the POK鍏N you chose. When you try to go out, Your rival will challenge you to a duel, (TIP: when you are in the battle, and you know that he is gonna beat you up, remember the POTION you withdrew?, USE IT, you only have one so use itwisely...) after you beat him, go out and head north to VIRIDIAN CITY
- ROUTE 1
You will be challenged here by some Wild POK鍏N so beat them so your POK鍏N can gain experience. Talk to the first guy you see and he will tell you about a POK頍ART he runs, and he will give you a POTION... - VIRIDIAN CITY When you get there, stop by the POK頃ENTER (if your POK鍏N is weak), then explore and talk to everyone, but don't go to ROUTE 22 yet... When you finish, go to the POK頍ART and talk to the CLERK, he will give you "OAK'S PARCEL", so you know what you have to do... GIVE IT TO OAK!! so, go back to PALLET TOWN and into PROF. OAK'S LAB, and give him the parcel, after the looooong speech, he will give you and your rival, the famous...(drums please) POK鄅X!! it records the data of POK鍏N you've seen or captured, in total there are 151 POK鍏N!, so then go to Your rival's house and talk to her sister, she will give you a TOWN MAP. Go back to VIRIDIAN CITY and go to the shop... buy some POK邁LLS,( @ least 10) and go back to ROUTE 1 and capture a RATTATA and a PIDGEY. you can either build them up, or deposit them on the PC in the POK頃ENTER (i recommend you to keep PIDGEY, when he builds exp. he growsSTRONG!!). To collect more POK鍏N go left to route 22 and capture a SPEAROW, NIDORAN (M), NIDORAN (F). I suggest to store them in the PC. Oh! I almost forgot you'll fight Your rival, so beat him. if you bought some extra POTIONS in the POK頍ART, then use them if necessary. Go back and into the POK頍ART, buy @ least a couple of ANTIDOTES, 'cause you'll need them in the forest, now head to ROUTE 2.
- ROUTE 2 There are no items here, and just some tall grass with some POK鍏N so go into the VIRIDIAN FOREST...
- VIRIDIAN FOREST
You'll probablly think, WOW! a forest! (hehehe) so just walk around, and talk to some of the people you find there, Oh!, capture a PIKACHU, WEEDLE, and CATERPIE here, don't worry about KAKUNAS or METAPODS, since CATERPIE evolves into METAPOD, and WEEDLE evolves into KAKUNA, in here you will find 2 TRAINERS, an ANTIDOTE, a POK邁LL, and a POTION, so just continue north and left, until you get to the end, go out and go inside PEWTER CITY...
- PEWTER CITY
WOW! another place, but this time, it's a city!, you know what to do, talk to everyone and if you want, stop by to buy some POTIONS, go visit the MUSEUM if you want, you'll have to come back here anyways when you have the CUT HM, to get into the MUSEUM from the "Back Door" using CUT, so a guy will give you OLD AMBER, which turns into AERODACTYL when you resurrect it @ the CINNABAR ISLAND LABORATORY. Go to the LOCAL GYM, there you will face a JR. TRAINER, and BROCK, the GYM LEADER, When you fight BROCK, make sure you have your POK鍏N above L.10 and some on L.15. BROCK has: L.12 GEODUDE, L.14 ONIX, after you beat him, he will give you the BOULDERBADGE, and TM 34, which contains BIDE, so go out and heat to ROUTE 3...
- ROUTE 3
CRAMMED FULL OF TRAINERS here's a tip, defeat 1 or 2 TRAINERS, then go to the POK頃ENTER, then come back again to defeat more TRAINERS. Here you can collect(where you fight the girl with the JIGGLYPUFF) a JIGGLYPUFF, then go north into the POK頃ENTER heal you POK鍏N and buy the tempting MAGIKARP, but you can fish it later, and not waste the 500 bucks, anyways, deposit it in your PC, and head to MT. MOON...
- MT.MOON
Not exactly a MT. but it'll do... Here, there are a lot of Items including: POTIONS, RARE CANDY, ESCAPE ROPE, MOON STONE, TM'S(12 and 01) , and HP UP. Pick up some POK鍏N here: ZUBAT, CLEFAIRY, PARAS, and GEODUDE, some guys of TEAM ROCKET will challenge you to Duels. Oh! I almost forgot, you can find 2 FOSSILS here, but because of the GREEDY Pok魡niac, you can only get 1, The HELIX FOSSIL, or THE DOME FOSSIL, THE HELIX FOSSIL contains a POK鍏N called OMANYTE, which evolves into OMASTAR, and THE DOME FOSSIL contains a POK鍏N called KABUTO, which evolves into KABUTOPS, but remember you can only choose one, and you have to resurrect it @ the CINNABAR ISLAND LAB... So get out of MT. MOON and head to ROUTE 4...
