Mahogany Town

Mahogany Town

Mahogany Town is a quiet mountain town located at the intersection of Routes 42, 43, and 44. The entire town has a suspicious air to it, as it used to serve as the hiding place of ninjas. There is no official Poké Mart in this small town, but a souvenir shop offers an assortment of items for sale. The seventh Gym can be found here.

Item Location Games RageCandyBar From the man near the east exit; may be purchased for $300 each  G  S  Later visit TM16 (Icy Wind) From Gym Leader Pryce, after defeating him  G  S

The Pushy Salesman

There is a man on the east side of town that stops anyone from reaching Route 44. He states that as you are new in town, you should definitely try a RageCandyBar for the low price of $300. The item is a local specialty, named for the nearby Lake of Rage. Its cost, and its effect when used, are identical to that of a Potion.

The Shady Sightseer

A second man blocks the entrance to the Mahogany Gym as well. He says that you should take the time for some sightseeing, and tells you to check out the Lake of Rage. The lake is located to the north, beyond Route 43.

Route 43

Route 43

Route 43 connects Mahogany Town to the Lake of Rage. The main road passes through a gate, while a grassy trail winds its way through the trees.

The Greedy Guards

Travelers who wish to take the easier path to the lake and stay on the main road are forced to pass through the gate. Team Rocket knows this, and has dispatched two Grunts here. Anyone who enters the gate is immediately confronted by the pair, and forced to pay $1,000 as a toll. They mention how their assignment has been very profitable, as everyone wants to see whatever is happening at the Lake of Rage.

Lake of Rage

Lake of Rage

The Lake of Rage, also known as Gyarados Lake, is the largest lake in Johto. According to a local Fishing Guru, the lake was created when rampaging Gyarados altered the landscape and the resulting crater eventually filled with rainwater. The lake has not been the same since the men dressed in black appeared, and there have even been sightings of a strangely-colored Gyarados.

Peace Disturbed

Something has been disturbing the Pokémon living in the lake, and now the Gyarados are angry. One of them can be seen just offshore. Unlike others of its species, this individual seems to have evolved under mysterious circumstances that resulted in its unusual coloring. It will not calm itself, so it must be caught or defeated.

VS Gyarados

As a Water/Flying-type Pokémon, Gyarados is vulnerable to Electric- and Rock-type attacks. Using these moves first will wear it down quickly. Follow up with Fire-, Water-, Fighting-, Bug-, or Steel-type moves to further chip away at its health.

Types: Water Flying Held item: None Gyarados Lv.30 Thrash Normal   --       Bite Dark   --       Dragon Rage Dragon   --       Leer Normal   --

When the battle ends, you find a Red Scale floating on the water. Climb back onto shore and speak to the man reading the sign. He has been investigating rumors that all of the Magikarp in the lake are being forced to evolve prematurely. He introduces himself as Lance, and asks for your help. He believes that a mysterious radio signal originating in Mahogany Town is the cause, and sets off to find the source.

Souvenir Shop

Upon entering the shady shop, you see Lance's Dragonite using Hyper Beam to attack one of the workers. Lance confirms that the strange radio signal is coming from this location, and pushes past the shopkeeper to reveal a hidden stairway leading underground.

B1F

When you step in front of the first Pokémon statue, you are forced to battle two Grunts in quick succession. It turns out that each Pokémon statue on this floor is equipped with a hidden security camera, and passing in front of one causes the same two Grunts to confront you.

Continue west and take the first doorway to head south. Defeat Scientist Jed in the interior room, then grab the X Accuracy and examine the computer to disable the security cameras. Leave the room and head east to reach a Hyper Potion. Go south and follow the hallway westward to get a Nugget, then take the stairs in the southwest.

B2F (South)

Lance is waiting for you here, and heals your Pokémon before continuing on. The nearby door needs a password to open, so continue eastward to fight another two Rocket Grunts. Take the stairs down to the lowest floor.

B3F (Southeast)

Lance informs you that reaching the boss requires two passwords, which are only known by a few trusted Rockets. Pick up the Protein near the east wall, then battle Scientist Ross and the female Rocket Grunt in the eastern room. Defeated, she gives up the first password: "SlowpokeTail". Move on to the southwest room to fight Scientist Mitch, then defeat another Rocket Grunt to learn the second password: "RaticateTail." Collect the Dire Hit and Full Heal near the potted plants, then head north. Pick up the Ice Heal near the north wall, then climb the northeast stairs.

B2F (North)

Head all the way to the west, where you are challenged by another Rocket Grunt. Go down the stairs to reach the boss's room.

B3F (Northwest)

When you approach the executive's room, Silver appears. He insists that he will be the one to eliminate Team Rocket, then runs off. Before opening the door, climb the southern stairs to a separate area of B2F.

B2F (West)

Pick up the item, TM46 (Thief), then go back downstairs.

B3F (Northwest)

Examine the door to enter the two passwords, and the door opens. The Rocket Executive inside demands to know who you are and why you are in Giovanni's office. He reveals that Giovanni disappeared after disbanding Team Rocket three years ago, but that the group has continued on since then, planning for his eventual return.
