== Route 36 ==
A quick detour on the way to [[Azalea Town]], there is only one thing you can do right now.  Speak to the guy near the sign to receive {{HM|06|Rock Smash}}.  The only requirement to use the move in the field is the {{badge|Zephyr}} from [[Violet Gym]], so you're free to use it right away.  Head south to enter the Ruins of Alph.


== Ruins of Alph ==
==Slowpoke Well==
[[File:Johto Ruins of Alph Map.png|thumb|The Ruins of Alph, southwest of Violet]]
[[File:Slowpoke Well B1F HGSS.png|thumb|Slowpoke Well, B1F]]
The [[Ruins of Alph]] have existed since ancient times, and their great age means that they contain many mysteries that remain unsolved to this day.  If only someone could unlock the mystery of these enigmatic carvings, something good is bound to happen...


From the northern entrance, walk west through the moss-covered structure and {{m|Rock Smash|smash}} the rocks to pick up a {{DL|Potion|Hyper Potion}}.  Head east from here to reach a building in the northeast, which houses the first stone panel puzzle.
Kurt scared off the guard outside, but slipped while entering the well and landed on his back. As he is temporarily incapacitated, it's up to you to chase off the other Rockets and save the group of {{p|Slowpoke}}.

After defeating the three other Rockets, you meet the first of the Rocket Executives. [[Proton]] introduces himself as the "scariest and cruelest" member of [[Team Rocket]] before challenging you to a battle.


=== Northeast ruins ===

|pokemon=2


Without the {{m|Surf}} HM, the only accessible part of the ruins is in the northeast.  Step inside the ruined building to find a broken carving of a Pokémon.  The top screen shows a hint: it's a {{p|Kabuto|Pokémon that lived hidden in the depths of the sea, and had eyes on its back to monitor its surroundings}}.  Restore the tiles to their correct place, and the floor beneath you will open up.  This drops you down into the main underground chamber.  When you hit the ground, you are greeted by a young man who is amazed that you solved the puzzle.  In recognition of your talents, he gives you the {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Unown Report}}, which automatically records any {{p|Unown}} you catch.  With the first puzzle completed, the first group of Unown (A-J forms) are available for capture inside the ruins.  Climb up out of the underground chamber, and return to the ruins in the northeast.  Behind the Kabuto carving is a line of mysterious script on the rear wall, which seems to form the word "ESCAPE".  Using an [[Escape Rope]] in front of it will cause part of it to disappear, revealing a small room with a few helpful items.

With the first puzzle solved, there's nothing else to do here until you can {{m|Surf}} outside of battle, and that requires the badge from Ecruteak Gym.  Leave the ruins behind for now, and walk east to reach {{rt|32|Johto}}.

=== Later... ===
Defeated, he and the others disappear. [[Kurt]]'s back is feeling better now, and after checking on the {{p|Slowpoke}}, shows you back to his home.


Return to the ruins after obtaining the Surf and Strength HMs, and then you will be able to reach the rest of the ruins, where a few uncommon Pokémon dwell.  This is notably the only place in Johto to find {{p|Natu}} and {{p|Smeargle}}. Also with the {{DL|Pokégear|Radio|Radio Card}} you've obtained in [[Goldenrod City]] you can tune in to the "Mysterious Transmission" on the Radio to improve the chances of finding an Unown that you had not seen yet.
==Azalea Town==
As thanks for saving the {{p|Slowpoke}}, he rewards you with a [[Fast Ball]]. Kurt knows more about [[Apricorn]]s than anyone, and from this point on you can bring him any number of Apricorns to have them transformed into custom Poké Balls by the next day. His granddaughter offers his phone number as a way to check on his progress. Apricorns come in seven different colors, each perfect for a specific type of Poké Ball.

{{m|Surf}} south across the water to reach the southern ruins.  Step inside the building to reach another carving; this time, it's a {{p|Aerodactyl|Pokémon that knew no fear and flew as it pleased through the skies long ago}}.  Return the tiles to their proper place, and the floor opens beneath you, dropping you into the central chamber.  Solving this carving unlocks the R-V forms of {{p|Unown}}.  Return to the same ruins, and examine the script on the rear wall, which resembles the word "LIGHT".  Have a Pokémon use {{m|Flash}} to reach a hidden room with an [[Energy Root]], [[Heal Powder]], {{evostone|Moon Stone}}, and [[Sitrus Berry]].

With the Rockets gone, it is now possible to challenge the [[Azalea Gym]].
|
 
=== Western ruins ===
===Azalea Gym===
|-
[[File:Azalea Gym HGSS.png|thumb|Azalea Gym]]
|
 
To reach the western ruins, you'll need to head south and enter [[Union Cave]]. Head west, then turn north. Walk downstairs, surf across the pond, and you'll reach an area with two Hikers. Climb the northern stairs. You'll emerge near the western ruins and single patch of tall grass, the only place to find {{p|Natu}} and {{p|Smeargle}}. Battle Psychic Nathan and his {{p|Girafarig}}, and step inside the ruins.

{{sign|DPcity|The Walking Bug Pokémon Encyclopedia}}
{{sign|DPcity|footer}}
 
The [[Azalea Gym]] is crawling with {{type|Bug}} Pokémon. {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Flying}}-, and {{type|Rock}} attacks all have an advantage when battling insects. The Gym's design includes several {{p|Spinarak}}-like lifts that crawl across planks suspended over large spider webs. At the entrance, take the southwest lift to reach the center platform. Ignore the blue switch here, and take the next lift to the northwest corner. Flip the switch here and take the lift to the west side of the center platform. Flip the red switch and ride the lift to the Gym Leader.
 
The biggest challenge with [[Bugsy]] is his {{p|Scyther}}. This mantis' high {{stat|Attack}} lets it hit hard with {{m|U-turn}} before switching out. When used after {{m|Leer}}, this move inflicts even greater damage. Scyther's worst weakness is Rock. If none of your Pokémon know any Rock attacks, then you can use the [[TM39]] from [[Union Cave]] to teach {{m|Rock Tomb}}, a move that lowers the target's {{stat|Speed}}.

This carving is of {{p|Ho-Oh|a Pokémon, with feathers of seven colors, that flies through the sky, according to legend}}.  Return the tiles to their proper place, and like usual, the floor gives away beneath you.  Solving this puzzle unlocks the W-Z forms of the {{p|Unown}}. Examine the text on the rear wall, which seems to say "HO-OH".  Inspecting this wall with {{p|Ho-Oh}} as your lead Pokémon will let you reach the third hidden room, which conceals a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Charcoal}}, [[Leppa Berry]], {{DL|In-battle effect item|Life Orb}}, and [[Revival Herb]].

To reach the last part of the ruins, you'll need to trek through [[Union Cave]] once more.  Head back to the room with the two Hikers, and {{m|Strength|shove}} the boulder to reach the southern stairs.  Outside the cave (near the other ruins), you can find a hidden {{DL|Valuable item|Big Mushroom}}, as well as a hidden {{DL|Valuable item|Nugget}}.  Be careful when walking to the ruins, since it requires that you walk right next to the ledge.
|pokemon=3


According to the clue, the fourth and final carving is of {{p|Omanyte|a ten-legged Pokémon that swims on the bottom of the sea and eats plankton}}.  Assemble the tiles, and you drop to the chamber below.  Solving this puzzle unlocks the K-Q forms of the {{p|Unown}}.  The text on this chamber's rear wall resembles "WATER" — entering this hidden room requires using a {{evostone|Water Stone}} from your bag.  Once inside, you'll find a [[Leppa Berry]], {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Mystic Water}}, {{DL|Valuable item|Star Piece}}, and {{DL|Valuable item|Stardust}}.

Once all 26 alphabetical {{p|Unown}} forms have been captured and registered in the {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Unown Report}}, and each of the four hidden rooms have been visited, talk to one of the scientists at the Research Center to receive additional reports.  Once you obtain page seven, head to the entrance of the ruins and examine the back panel behind the ladder.  One of the scientists will inspect it and you'll both return to the Research Center.  Visit the same room again, and you'll be able to capture the missing (? and !) forms.

Talk to the first guy you see and you'll get a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Miracle Seed}}, a held item that enhances {{type|Grass}} moves, as a souvenir for defeating the Violet Gym. Not far from him is another man that will give you {{TM|05|Roar}}, but you cannot reach him until you can {{m|Cut|hack}} your way through the trees.  There's a [[Repel]] sitting in the tall grass by Picnicker Liz.  Near the center of the route the path opens to a small inlet, forcing Trainers to either follow the western shoreline, or take the pier over the water.  Defeat Fisherman Ralph on the south end of the pier to exchange phone numbers - he'll call you when the {{p|Qwilfish}} are [[Pokémon outbreak|swarming]].  Whichever way you go, don't pass up the Great Ball and {{TM|09|Bullet Seed}} on the shore!

The two paths converge again, meeting up just north of the Pokémon Center.  Like {{rt|4|Kanto}} in Kanto, this route also gives Trainers an opportunity to rest their team before tackling the nearby cave.  Check out the narrow path behind the Pokémon Center on a Friday to meet Frieda, another of the [[Week Siblings]].  When you first meet her, she'll give you a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Poison Barb}}, which powers-up {{type|Poison}} moves.  A shady guy outside the Pokémon Center offers to sell you some tasty, nutritious {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|SlowpokeTail}}, the price: only {{pdollar}}1,000,000!  Tell him thanks, but definitely no thanks. Talk to the fisherman inside the building, and he'll give you the {{DL|Fishing|Old Rod}}; with this you can reel in things like {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Tentacool}}.  Another man in the Pokémon Center is a fan of [[Kurt]]'s, and will give you two Lure Balls to show his appreciation. South of the Pokémon Center is a tiny trail hidden in the trees; {{m|Rock Smash|break}} the rock to pick up the {{DL|In-battle effect item|Shell Bell}}. Rest up and enter [[Union Cave]].

=== Union Cave ===
==Ilex Forest==
[[File:Union Cave exterior HGSS.png|thumb|left|The entrance to Union Cave]]
[[File:Ilex Forest HGSS.png|thumb|Ilex Forest]]


On your first time through, you'll only have access to two of the cave's three floors, while the third opens up after you have {{m|Surf}}.  An intriguing rumor says that Pokémon cries can be heard coming from somewhere inside the cave, but only on Fridays.  Turn west from the entrance, then head north. Pick up the {{DL|Battle item|X Attack}}, and take the stairs down to B1F.  Here you can find {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}} to the west, and an {{DL|Battle item|X Defend}} to the north.  Get back upstairs, and follow the cave's tunnels to the south.  Grab the Great Ball near Firebreather Bill, and the Potion by the western wall.  Continue southeast to find the exit, and an {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Awakening}} lying nearby.  Step outside to reach {{rt|33|Johto}}.
[[Ilex Forest]] is a natural maze. The large, shadowy forest has become so overgrown in recent years that many young trees have taken root. One of these wayward saplings blocks the trail leading past the [[Ilex Shrine]]. Without {{HM|01|Cut}}, it is impossible to reach the other side.

===Rescue the Farfetch'd!===
{{to|Azalea}}'s Charcoal Man has not seen his apprentice since he went into the forest. He can be found just north of the entrance, and it seems that the two {{p|Farfetch'd}} that cut down trees for them have wandered off and gotten lost. They get spooked easily, so you must sneak up from behind to catch them.


* The first duck is located a short distance to the east of the apprentice. Step on the pile of twigs south of it to attract its attention, then loop around the grove of trees to reach it.
* The second duck is a bit more difficult to catch. It begins in the northwest, but needs to be chased into the northeast corner, into a group of three trees. Step on the twigs to the east, avoid the twigs to the north, and approach it from the west.


Once Far and Fetch'd have been rounded up, the Charcoal Man shows up and rewards you with {{HM|01|Cut}}. Return to the Charcoal Kiln afterwards to receive a [[Charcoal]] from the apprentice as thanks.


==Now that you have Cut (Optional)==


==== Later... ====
Now that you have recieved the HM for {{m|Cut}} and can use it outside of battle, there are a couple of items you can get from Route 32.
 
Make a return trip through Union Cave after winning the Fog Badge from Ecruteak Gym, and obtaining {{HM|04|Strength}}.  The Surf HM will allow you to reach the southern part of B1F, where a wild {{p|Lapras}} shows up every Friday (even if you caught one here already).  Using both HM moves will let you reach the previously-inaccessible areas of the Ruins of Alph.
 
== Route 33 ==
[[File:Johto Route 33 Map.png|thumb|Route 33]]
 
{{rt|33|Johto}} is extremely short, and connects Union Cave to [[Azalea Town]] in the west. Pick the two Apricorns off of the trees, and battle Hiker Anthony.  Exchange phone numbers with him, and he'll call you when {{p|Dunsparce}} are swarming in [[Dark Cave]].  Head west into town.

===Move Tutor===
In the center of the forest, east of the pond, is a man who offers to teach {{m|Headbutt}} to a Pokémon. In battle, Headbutt has a power of 70 and a 30% chance of causing the target to {{DL|Status ailment|flinch}}. In the field, it can be used on any tree in an attempt to knock down a Pokémon. This is the only way to find {{p|Pineco}}, {{p|Heracross}}, and {{p|Aipom}}. In every game, only certain trees will yield Pokémon, and those trees have 100% of finding Pokémon. Just headbutt trees until you get a Pokémon, then repeatedly headbutt that.


== Azalea Town ==
===Kimono Girl 2===
[[Image:Azalea Town HGSS.png|thumb|350px|left|Azalea Town]]
In the northeast part of the forest, you meet the second of the [[Kimono Girls]], who seems to be lost. Agree to help her, and your lead Pokémon shows her the way out.
 
As you approach the town, you'll see one of the residents yelling at a [[Team Rocket|black-clad person]] hanging around the [[Slowpoke Well]].  The guy soon runs off, but the Rocket grunt won't let anyone get near the well. Inside the town, another Rocket is blocking the door to the Gym, as well.  Rest your team at the Pokémon Center, and stop by [[Kurt|the Apricorn craftsman]]'s house north of the Gym. He explains that Team Rocket has seized control of the well, and is cutting off Slowpoke tails to sell for profit.  He rushes off to save the {{p|Slowpoke}} being held inside the well, so follow him in case he needs help.
 


===Lured into Action===
Inside the forest's northern gate, behind the counter, is a woman with her {{p|Butterfree}}. Speak to her to receive {{TM|12|Taunt}}. Taunt prevents the target from using [[status moves]] for several turns.


=== Slowpoke Well ===
==Route 34==
[[Image:Slowpokewell.png|frame|right|Slowpoke Well]]
[[File:Johto Route 34 HGSS.png|thumb|left|Route 34]]


Kurt scared off the Rocket grunt that was guarding the entrance, but lost his footing and injured himself when he tried to enter the well.  Slowpoke Well is fairly straightforward: you only need to follow the single path and fight three Rocket grunts.  Grab the Super Potion near the female Grunt. At the end of the path, you'll encounter [[Proton|the first]] of the four Rocket Executives, who have all been updated as individual characters instead of a generic Trainer class.
{{rt|34|Johto}} is a seaside route stretching between [[Ilex Forest]] and [[Goldenrod City]]. The [[Pokémon Day Care]], where an elderly couple care for Trainers' Pokémon, is located here.

===Pokémon Day Care===
As you approach from the south, Lyra/Ethan approaches from the north to visit the couple, who turn out to be her/his grandparents. She/He gives you her/his phone number before leaving, and the Day-Care Man gives out both his and his wife's numbers. This allows you to check up on your Pokémon at any time.


After Proton is defeated, Team Rocket will abandon Slowpoke Well.  Kurt will rush over and thank you for helping the Slowpoke, and then you'll be taken instantly to Kurt's house. To show his gratitude, Kurt will give you one of his custom Poké Balls, a Lure Ball, and offer to make you more of them if you bring him Apricorns.  His granddaughter will give you his phone number, so that you can call to check on his progress. When you leave Kurt's house, you'll notice that the Slowpoke have returned to Azalea Town. Pick the Wht Apricorn from Kurt's tree, and heal up at the Pokémon Center before challenging the Gym.
Any Pokémon left here will gain one [[Experience|experience point]] for every step taken. However, the Johto Day Care accepts up to two Pokémon to raise at once. If both a male and female are left together, the old couple may find an [[Pokémon Egg|Egg]]. Travel with the Egg for a while, and it will eventually hatch. This is the only way to get more members of certain species that only one are available in-game, like {{p|Eevee}}, and baby Pokémon, like {{p|Pichu}}. In place of a compatible pair, a shape-shifting {{p|Ditto}} makes a great substitute.

====Later...====
Return to the Slowpoke Well after gaining both {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Strength}} and use them to get to B2F. This floor not only has wild {{p|Golbat}} and {{p|Slowbro}}, but also a copy of {{TM|18|Rain Dance}} and a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}} which you can use to evolve either {{p|Slowpoke}} into {{p|Slowking}} or {{p|Poliwhirl}} into {{p|Politoed}}. While this is also available at the [[Pokéathlon]] on Sundays only, this is the only chance to obtain one without having to undergo a lot of effort to earn enough points in the competitions first.

This is the Bulbapedia walkthrough for Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
These pages follow the remade Nintendo DS iteration, not Pokémon Gold and Silver. The guide for those games can be found here.


Slowpoke Well

Slowpoke Well, B1F

Kurt scared off the guard outside, but slipped while entering the well and landed on his back. As he is temporarily incapacitated, it's up to you to chase off the other Rockets and save the group of Slowpoke.

After defeating the three other Rockets, you meet the first of the Rocket Executives. Proton introduces himself as the "scariest and cruelest" member of Team Rocket before challenging you to a battle.



Defeated, he and the others disappear. Kurt's back is feeling better now, and after checking on the Slowpoke, shows you back to his home.

Azalea Town

As thanks for saving the Slowpoke, he rewards you with a Fast Ball. Kurt knows more about Apricorns than anyone, and from this point on you can bring him any number of Apricorns to have them transformed into custom Poké Balls by the next day. His granddaughter offers his phone number as a way to check on his progress. Apricorns come in seven different colors, each perfect for a specific type of Poké Ball.

Apricorn Ball Effect
Black Apricorn Blk Apricorn Heavy Ball Heavy Ball Better for heavier Pokémon
Blue Apricorn Blu Apricorn Lure Ball IV Lure Ball Better for Pokémon hooked by a fishing rod
Green Apricorn Grn Apricorn Friend Ball Friend Ball Makes a Pokémon more friendly
Pink Apricorn Pnk Apricorn Love Ball Love Ball Better for Pokémon of the opposite gender, but same species
Red Apricorn Red Apricorn Level Ball Level Ball Better for lower-leveled Pokémon
White Apricorn Wht Apricorn Fast Ball Fast Ball Better for faster Pokémon
Yellow Apricorn Ylw Apricorn Moon Ball Moon Ball Better for Pokémon that evolve with a Moon Stone

With the Rockets gone, it is now possible to challenge the Azalea Gym.

Azalea Gym

Azalea Gym

Azalea Town Pokémon Gym
Leader: Bugsy
The Walking Bug Pokémon Encyclopedia

The Azalea Gym is crawling with Bug-type Pokémon. Fire-, Flying-, and Rock-type attacks all have an advantage when battling insects. The Gym's design includes several Spinarak-like lifts that crawl across planks suspended over large spider webs. At the entrance, take the southwest lift to reach the center platform. Ignore the blue switch here, and take the next lift to the northwest corner. Flip the switch here and take the lift to the west side of the center platform. Flip the red switch and ride the lift to the Gym Leader.

The biggest challenge with Bugsy is his Scyther. This mantis' high Attack lets it hit hard with U-turn before switching out. When used after Leer, this move inflicts even greater damage. Scyther's worst weakness is Rock. If none of your Pokémon know any Rock attacks, then you can use the TM39 from Union Cave to teach Rock Tomb, a move that lowers the target's Speed.

Azalea Gym
The Hive Badge




Defeated, Bugsy awards you the Hive Badge, which ensures obedience from all Pokémon up to level 30, and enables the use of Cut in the field. He also hands over TM89 (U-turn) as a prize.

Rival battle 2

Be sure to rest up after defeating the Gym, as Silver ambushes you near the western gate.

Chikorita If the player chose Chikorita:



Cyndaquil If the player chose Cyndaquil:



Totodile If the player chose Totodile:



Ilex Forest

Ilex Forest

Ilex Forest is a natural maze. The large, shadowy forest has become so overgrown in recent years that many young trees have taken root. One of these wayward saplings blocks the trail leading past the Ilex Shrine. Without HM01 (Cut), it is impossible to reach the other side.

Rescue the Farfetch'd!

Azalea's Charcoal Man has not seen his apprentice since he went into the forest. He can be found just north of the entrance, and it seems that the two Farfetch'd that cut down trees for them have wandered off and gotten lost. They get spooked easily, so you must sneak up from behind to catch them.

  • The first duck is located a short distance to the east of the apprentice. Step on the pile of twigs south of it to attract its attention, then loop around the grove of trees to reach it.
  • The second duck is a bit more difficult to catch. It begins in the northwest, but needs to be chased into the northeast corner, into a group of three trees. Step on the twigs to the east, avoid the twigs to the north, and approach it from the west.

Once Far and Fetch'd have been rounded up, the Charcoal Man shows up and rewards you with HM01 (Cut). Return to the Charcoal Kiln afterwards to receive a Charcoal from the apprentice as thanks.

Now that you have Cut (Optional)

Now that you have recieved the HM for Cut and can use it outside of battle, there are a couple of items you can get from Route 32.

Move Tutor

In the center of the forest, east of the pond, is a man who offers to teach Headbutt to a Pokémon. In battle, Headbutt has a power of 70 and a 30% chance of causing the target to flinch. In the field, it can be used on any tree in an attempt to knock down a Pokémon. This is the only way to find Pineco, Heracross, and Aipom. In every game, only certain trees will yield Pokémon, and those trees have 100% of finding Pokémon. Just headbutt trees until you get a Pokémon, then repeatedly headbutt that.

Kimono Girl 2

In the northeast part of the forest, you meet the second of the Kimono Girls, who seems to be lost. Agree to help her, and your lead Pokémon shows her the way out.

Lured into Action

Inside the forest's northern gate, behind the counter, is a woman with her Butterfree. Speak to her to receive TM12 (Taunt). Taunt prevents the target from using status moves for several turns.

Route 34

Route 34

Route 34 is a seaside route stretching between Ilex Forest and Goldenrod City. The Pokémon Day Care, where an elderly couple care for Trainers' Pokémon, is located here.

Pokémon Day Care

As you approach from the south, Lyra/Ethan approaches from the north to visit the couple, who turn out to be her/his grandparents. She/He gives you her/his phone number before leaving, and the Day-Care Man gives out both his and his wife's numbers. This allows you to check up on your Pokémon at any time.

Any Pokémon left here will gain one experience point for every step taken. However, the Johto Day Care accepts up to two Pokémon to raise at once. If both a male and female are left together, the old couple may find an Egg. Travel with the Egg for a while, and it will eventually hatch. This is the only way to get more members of certain species that only one are available in-game, like Eevee, and baby Pokémon, like Pichu. In place of a compatible pair, a shape-shifting Ditto makes a great substitute.
