== Return to New Bark ==
Upon boarding the ship, a frantic old man runs into you. His granddaughter is missing, and he asks for your help before running off. Luckily, there are only so many places where she could be on the ship. Before starting the search, check you your cabin at the west end of the hallway; it has a PC and a cozy bed to rest in, which is important to have with so many Trainers on board.


Congratulations, you are now the Indigo League [[Champion]]! That major accomplishment means that you are the strongest Trainer in all of Johto and Kanto. However, just because the League is behind you, that doesn't mean the game is over. <br>

== Fast Ship S.S. Aqua ==
[[Image:S.S. Aqua3.GIF|thumb|right|S.S. Aqua]]


Upon boarding the ship, an old man will run into you. His granddaughter is missing, and asks for your help before running off.  First thing's first, though - check out your cabin at the west end of the hallway.  It has a PC and a cozy bed to heal your Pokémon, good to have with all of these Trainers onboard. <br><br>
===Upper deck===
You need to search every room to find the missing girl, but she can't have gotten too far.
Two of the other cabins on the north side are empty, while the one between them has a Hiker. On the south side, only one cabin is unoccupied; the cabin near the stairs belongs to the old man, the next has a PokéFan and a pair of Twins, while the last has a Firebreather. No little girl to be found, so check out the lower deck.


Step out of your cabin, and check out those other rooms.  The nearest cabin is empty, but the room beyond that has a Hiker.  The northeast cabin is another empty room.  Walk down the eastern hallway, past the stairs, and check the rooms on the south side.  The room closest to the stairs is the grandfather's room.  Room #6 hosts two battles, a [[PokéFan]] and a pair of [[Twins]].  Cabin #7 is also empty, and the southwest cabin has a single [[Firebreather]]. <br><br>
===Lower deck===
You've inspected the cabins on this floor and still no luck, so try the lower floor.  The sailor here blocks your way, asking you to track down another sailor for their shift change. The missing sailor is loitering around in Cabin #2, next door to your room.  Beat him in a battle, and he'll head back to his post. A [[Juggler]] is hunched over a trash can on the lower floor, but somehow has enough strength to battle.  Battle past the [[Sailor]] and the [[Picnicker]], and take the stairs in the southwest to get to the Captain's room.
A Sailor blocks the way, and asks that you track down another Sailor for their shift change. This Sailor is snoozing in the cabin next to yours; beat him in battle and he returns to his post. Further along, there is a Juggler hunched over a trash can, and a Sailor and a Picnicker beyond that. The western stairs lead to the Captain's cabin.

===Captain's cabin===
|- style="background: #{{kanto color}};"
The little girl is with the Captain, safe but bored, and keeps trying to get him to play. Realizing that her grandfather is worried about her, she runs off and you both end up in the old man's cabin. For taking care of his granddaughter, he rewards you with a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Metal Coat}}, a power-up for {{type|Steel}} attacks and an essential part of {{p|Steelix|certain}} {{p|Scizor|trade}} evolutions. Just then, the Captain announces that the ship has docked in Vermilion Harbor, and passengers may now disembark.

You'll find the girl with the Captain; she's bored out of her mind, and is desperately trying to get the Captain to play with her.  Once she realizes that her grandfather's worried about her, she runs off, and you both end up in the old man's room.  For baby-sitting the little girl, her grandfather gives you a [[Metal Coat]], a power-up item for {{type2|Steel}} and an integral part of a few trade evolutions.  As soon as he's done talking, the speaker system alerts passengers that the [[S.S. Aqua|ferry]] has docked in {{ci|Vermilion}} harbor.
==Vermilion City==
[[File:Vermilion City GSC.png|thumb|300px|Vermilion City]]


== Vermilion City ==
[[Vermilion City]] has not changed much over the past [[Generation I|three years]], though the land around [[Diglett's Cave]] has shifted a bit. A sleeping {{p|Snorlax}} blocks the path to the east, and the old man is still clearing the ground for construction with his {{p|Machop}}. Stop by the Poké Mart if you need more Potions or Poké Balls, then visit the Pokémon Fan Club on the west side.
[[Image:Vermilliongsc.png|thumb|300px|right|Vermilion City]]


[[Vermilion City]] is the first Kanto city you'll visit.  Not much has changed over the past three years, though the land around [[Diglett's Cave]] has shifted a little.  The old man is still clearing the ground for construction with his {{p|Machop}}, and a {{p|Snorlax}} has taken up residence on the east side. <br><br>

Shop at the Mart if you're in need of [[Potion]]s or [[Poké Ball]]s, then visit the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] on the city's west side, north of the Gym.

Listen to the Chairman's long story about his prized {{p|Rapidash}}, and he gives you a {{DL|Vitamin|Rare Candy}} for sticking around through the whole thing.

Now let's take on the first Kanto Gym!
The [[Vermilion Gym]] specializes in {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, so avoid using {{t|Water}} or {{t|Flying}} Pokémon. Conversely, {{t|Ground}} Pokémon are not only immune to electrical attacks, but their Ground-type attacks inflict serious damage on Electric Pokémon.


<br>
[[Lt. Surge]] has three Gym Trainers, but his hidden switches are broken so you can walk right up to him. His {{p|Magneton}} knows the useful {{m|Lock-On}}-and-{{m|Zap Cannon}} combo, which inflicts serious damage and {{status|paralysis}}, and his two {{p|Electrode}} may {{m|Explosion|explode}} without warning. If the battle drags on for too long, his Pokémon may be harder to hit thanks to {{m|Double Team}}. Use the {{TM|26|Earthquake}} from {{ka|Victory Road}} to sweep through his five Pokémon.

Avoid bringing {{t|Water}}- and {{type2|Flying}}s unless they are higher-leveled, or they won't last very long.  [[Lt. Surge]] has three recruits in his Gym, but his trash can puzzle from three years ago is inactive, so you can walk right up to him for a battle.  Look out for any {{m|explosion}}s, and Lt. Surge will go down without a problem.

After the battle, [[Lt. Surge|Surge]] awards you with the {{badge|Thunder}}, which increases your Pokémon's {{stat|Speed}}. Unlike the Johto Gym Leaders, their Kanto counterparts aren't as inclined to give out [[TM]]s (in fact, only two of them do). <br><br>
Defeated, [[Lt. Surge]] awards you the {{badge|Thunder}}, which gives your party members a {{stat|Speed}} boost during battle. That's all, though; unlike the Johto Gym Leaders, only two of their Kanto counterparts give out TMs.

With Snorlax blocking the east road, the only way forward is north to {{rt|6|Kanto}}.

This is the Bulbapedia walkthrough for Pokémon Gold and Silver.
These pages follow the original Game Boy Color iteration, not HeartGold and SoulSilver. The guide for those games can be found here.


Return to New Bark

Congratulations, you are now the Indigo League Champion! That marks you as the strongest Trainer in all of Johto and Kanto.

After the credits roll, you wind up back home in New Bark. Elm calls shortly after, asking you to visit the lab. Swing by to get the S.S. Ticket, a pass to board the S.S. Aqua in Olivine City. Head to the harbor to set sail for Vermilion City!

Fast Ship S.S. Aqua

S.S. Aqua, 1F
S.S. Aqua, B1F

Upon boarding the ship, a frantic old man runs into you. His granddaughter is missing, and he asks for your help before running off. Luckily, there are only so many places where she could be on the ship. Before starting the search, check you your cabin at the west end of the hallway; it has a PC and a cozy bed to rest in, which is important to have with so many Trainers on board.


Upper deck

Two of the other cabins on the north side are empty, while the one between them has a Hiker. On the south side, only one cabin is unoccupied; the cabin near the stairs belongs to the old man, the next has a PokéFan and a pair of Twins, while the last has a Firebreather. No little girl to be found, so check out the lower deck.

Lower deck

A Sailor blocks the way, and asks that you track down another Sailor for their shift change. This Sailor is snoozing in the cabin next to yours; beat him in battle and he returns to his post. Further along, there is a Juggler hunched over a trash can, and a Sailor and a Picnicker beyond that. The western stairs lead to the Captain's cabin.

Captain's cabin

The little girl is with the Captain, safe but bored, and keeps trying to get him to play. Realizing that her grandfather is worried about her, she runs off and you both end up in the old man's cabin. For taking care of his granddaughter, he rewards you with a Metal Coat, a power-up for Steel-type attacks and an essential part of certain trade evolutions. Just then, the Captain announces that the ship has docked in Vermilion Harbor, and passengers may now disembark.


Vermilion City

Vermilion City

Vermilion City has not changed much over the past three years, though the land around Diglett's Cave has shifted a bit. A sleeping Snorlax blocks the path to the east, and the old man is still clearing the ground for construction with his Machop. Stop by the Poké Mart if you need more Potions or Poké Balls, then visit the Pokémon Fan Club on the west side.


Pokémon Fan Club

Listen to the Chairman's long story about his prized Rapidash, and he gives you a Rare Candy for sticking around through the whole thing. Take note of the guy with the Clefairy; it is actually a Poké Doll that will need to be returned to its owner later.

LEADER: LT. SURGE

American!

The Vermilion Gym specializes in Electric-type Pokémon, so avoid using Water or Flying Pokémon. Conversely, Ground Pokémon are not only immune to electrical attacks, but their Ground-type attacks inflict serious damage on Electric Pokémon.

Lt. Surge has three Gym Trainers, but his hidden switches are broken so you can walk right up to him. His Magneton knows the useful Lock-On-and-Zap Cannon combo, which inflicts serious damage and paralysis, and his two Electrode may explode without warning. If the battle drags on for too long, his Pokémon may be harder to hit thanks to Double Team. Use the TM26 (Earthquake) from Victory Road to sweep through his five Pokémon.

The Thunder Badge





Defeated, Lt. Surge awards you the Thunder Badge, which gives your party members a Speed boost during battle. That's all, though; unlike the Johto Gym Leaders, only two of their Kanto counterparts give out TMs.

With Snorlax blocking the east road, the only way forward is north to Route 6.
