There are only two Pokémon that can possibly be encountered on Route 1: [[Pidgey]] and [[Rattata]]. Walk in the tall grass and you will encounter them. Train against both of them by fighting them and gaining experience. If the Pokémon is almost out of HP, return to [[Pallet Town]] and talk to Mom, or head on to [[Veridian City]] and use the [[Pokémon Center]].You should have trained to get a level of at least 8 by the time you get to Veridian City. This boring training will pay off, as it will make it easier to fight trainers later.

Now you can explore Veridian City. There are not many things you can do yet. As soon as you go into the city, you should see a Pokémon Center. This is a place where you can heal your Pokémon back to perfection. Using a Pokémon Center is simple. Just walk up to the woman at the counter and press A. She'll ask you if you want your Pokémon healed. Just select: HEAL. At the east side of the Pokémon Center, you can use the PC to store Pokémon and items. There are three people in this Pokémon Center, none of whom do anything worth while, besides give you tips.


If you go far to the north, there will be an old man laying down and a girl standing next to him. If you try to pass, he will tell you you can't. There's nothing of interest in the house to the east of them, just a man and his daughter who don't do anything important. To the south of that house is what seems like a small "school," which has only one student. She is reading a notebook that you can read too. It gives some tips about how to play the game. Southeast of the "school" is a Poké Mart. You need to enter here to move on.

When you enter the Poké Mart, immediatly the man at the counter asks you if you're from Pallet Town. He then tells you to deliver a package to Professor Oak. This package doesn't do anything for you, so you just have to deliver it. He won't let you buy anything from the Mart either, until you deliver the Parcel. And so, you have to head on back to Pallet Town.
