Fishing Guru 1

Visit the house in the northwest part of town to meet a Fisherman known as the Fishing Guru. Convince him that you love fishing as much as he does, and he rewards you with an Old Rod. This particular model is not the most impressive fishing rod, but it is useful for reeling in Magikarp.

Pokémon Fan Club

The building to the north of the Vermilion Gym is home to the Pokémon Fan Club. Speak to the Chairman and listen to his rambling thoughts to receive a Bike Voucher in appreciation. With this ticket, you can return to the Bike Shop in Cerulean City at any time and exchange it for a Bicycle. Riding a bike allows you to travel twice as fast as walking speed.

S.S. Anne, 2F

S.S. Anne, 3F

The S.S. Anne is a popular luxury cruise ship that sails all around the world and visits Vermilion City once a year. This will not be a relaxing time, however, as there are many Trainers on board.

1F

Turn to the right and take the stairs down to the lower floor.

B1F

This part of the ship is a dead-end hallway with five cabins. Visit the right-most room for a Max Potion and the middle room for an Ether. Pick up TM44 (Rest) in the fourth room from the stairs, then head back up to the main floor.

1F

Follow the hallway around to the front of the ship, and visit the second cabin from the left to get TM08 (Body Slam). Turn the corner and continue on to reach the kitchen. Inspect the three trash cans for any forgotten items, then leave the kitchen and climb the nearest stairs to reach the upper floor.

2F

The nearest doorway leads to the deck of the ship, where two Sailors are looking to battle. Step inside the second cabin from the left to get a Max Ether, then visit the fourth room to pick up a Rare Candy. When you approach the captain's quarters at the back of the ship, Blue is just leaving.

Rival Battle 4

Blue's team is much the same as it was in the previous battle in Cerulean City, aside from a couple of new moves.

Blue S.S. Anne Yellow Reward: $1300 Types: Normal Flying Spearow Lv.19 Peck Flying   --       Growl Normal   --       Leer Normal   --       Fury Attack Normal   --       Type: Normal Unknown Rattata Lv.16 Tackle Normal   --       Tail Whip Normal   --       Quick Attack Normal   --       Hyper Fang Normal   --       Type: Ground Unknown Sandshrew Lv.18 Scratch Normal   --       Sand-Attack Normal   --       Slash Normal   --       Struggle Normal   --       Type: Normal Unknown Eevee Lv.20 Tackle Normal   --       Tail Whip Normal   --       Sand-Attack Normal   --       Growl Normal   --

Despite his loss, he taunts you again as usual before walking away. Enter the captain's quarters to find him hunched over a trash can; it seems like he got seasick. Speak to him to help him out with a quick backrub and he will be feeling good as new. He gives you HM01 (Cut) to show his appreciation. This field move lets you chop down certain inconveniently-placed trees to reach new areas.

Be sure to collect all of the items on board before leaving, as the ship sets sail when you do. Use HM01 to teach Cut to a compatible Pokémon, then set out for the Vermilion Gym.

Vermilion City

Vermilion Gym

Vermilion Gym

The Vermilion Gym specializes in Electric-type Pokémon. Not only are Ground-type Pokémon immune to Electric attacks, but Ground attacks deal serious damage to Electric Pokémon. Keep Water- and Flying-type Pokémon on the sidelines for now. The Gym Leader can be found in the back room, beyond a set of electronic doors. Reaching him requires challengers to flip two switches hidden randomly among the many trash cans. Once the first switch has been found, the second will be in an adjacent can. If the wrong can is inspected and there is no switch inside, the puzzle resets.

Lt. Surge uses only a single Pokémon, though it has reached a fairly high level. Raichu's high Special lets it deal a good bit of damage with Thunderbolt. Use Ground moves like Dig for best results.

Surge Vermilion Gym Yellow Reward: $2772 Type: Electric Unknown Raichu Lv.28 Thunderbolt Electric   --       Mega Punch Normal   --       Mega Kick Normal   --       Growl Normal   --

After the battle, Lt. Surge awards you the Thunder Badge, which gives your Pokémon a slight Defense boost during battle and enables the use of Fly in the field. He also gives you TM24 (Thunderbolt) as a prize.

A Rare Addition

Speak to the police officer near the Poké Mart. She recently apprehended a mischievous Squirtle that was causing trouble around the city, and now needs to find a Trainer who can tame its unruly behavior. Seeing that you have three Badges, she recognizes you as a competent Trainer and asks that you give Squirtle a good home.

The next destination is Route 11 to the east.
