==Cerulean City==

-----
[[Cerulean City]] is a beautiful city with flowing water and blooming flowers. It is located between {{rt|4|Kanto}}, {{rt|24|Kanto}}, {{rt|9|Kanto}}, and {{rt|5|Kanto}}.

You've survived the trek through [[Mt. Moon]] and reached Cerulean City... and now you're trapped.  You won't be able to leave the city until you defeat the [[Cerulean Gym]], and your rival as well (who is waiting on the bridge to {{rt|24|Kanto}}).
=== A Rare Trade ===
In the house next to the Poké Center, an old man is willing to trade his {{2t|Ice|Psychic}}-type {{p|Jynx}} for your {{p|Poliwhirl}}.  You probably won't have one yet since you don't have a [[Fishing|fishing rod]], but this is the only Jynx in the game so you'll need it to complete your Pokédex.
=== Gym Badge Man ===
In the northwest house is a man who will explain every effect of the eight {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Indigo League}} [[Badge|Gym Badges]].
=== Bike Shop ===
[[Image:BikeShop rby.png|thumb|right|Outside the Bike Shop]]
The building in the southwest of the city is a bike shop.  Finally, you can move faster than on foot, right?  Unfortunately, the price tag is a whopping {{pdollar}}1,000,000!  Your wallet can't carry that much cash, so you'll have to track down a {{DL|List of key items in Generation I|Bike Voucher}} somewhere...
=== Something Shady ===
You won't be able to enter the house behind the Gym yet, since it is blocked off by a police officer.  It seems that [[Team Rocket]] is up to no good again, having stolen a valuable [[TM28|item]] from the people living here.  After you visit the Sea Cottage to the north, you'll be able to enter the home (and exit through a hole in the back wall to leave the city).


===Time for a Trade===
Visit the house next to the Pokémon Center to find an old man who would like to [[trade]] Pokémon. He is willing to part with his {{p|Jynx}} in exchange for a {{p|Poliwhirl}}. Poliwhirl can only be found by using a {{key|I|Super Rod|high-level fishing rod}}.


===Gym Badges, Explained===
The northwest house belongs to a man who offers to explains the effects of the eight {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Gym Badges}}. Half of them give a slight power boost to a respective stat, while the other half ensure a Pokémon's [[obedience]] during battle. The first five unlock the use of field moves.

===Bike Shop===
It would be great to get a [[Bicycle]] from the [[Miracle Cycle|Bike Shop]] in the southwest part of town, but they cost a whopping {{pdollar}}1,000,000! It is not possible to carry that much money, so it looks like you are stuck traveling on foot for now.


===Breaking, Entering===
The house in the northeast is currently blocked off by a police officer. It seems that [[Team Rocket]] has broken into the home and stolen [[TM28|a valuable item]] from its residents. Nothing can be done to remedy this at the moment, so set your sights on the Gym instead.

The Cerulean Gym specializes in {{type2|Water}} Pokémon, so your best options are {{t|Grass}}- and {{t|Electric}}-types. Trainers who chose {{p|Charmander}} may have a rough time here, so you may want to venture off to {{rt|24|Kanto}} to catch an {{p|Oddish}}{{sup|R}} or a {{p|Bellsprout}}{{sup|B}} to help take on the Gym.
The [[Cerulean Gym]] specializes in {{type|Water}} Pokémon. {{t|Grass}}- and {{type|Electric}} moves are best here, while {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Ground}}, and {{t|Rock}} Pokémon may struggle. {{p|Pikachu}} is a good choice to bring along, and {{p|Oddish}} and {{p|Bellsprout}} can be found on the nearby {{rt|24|Kanto}}.
 
Take out [[Misty]]'s {{p|Staryu}} quickly to move on to her {{p|Starmie}}. Her second Pokémon is both {{stat|Special|stronger}} and {{stat|Speed|faster}} than Staryu, making its {{m|Bubble Beam|BubbleBeam}} especially painful to vulnerable Pokémon. Use Pikachu's {{m|ThunderShock}}, or Grass moves like {{m|Vine Whip}} and {{m|Absorb}}, to deal serious damage and make quick work of it.

Now that you've defeated Misty and won the {{badge|Cascade}}, all of your Pokémon at level 30 or below will always obey you (even those you got in a trade), and you can use {{m|Cut}} outside of battle after receiving [[HM01]].  Misty also presents you with {{TM|11|BubbleBeam}} as a prize.
Rest your team and head north to {{rt|24|Kanto}}.




== Route 24 ==
After the battle, [[Misty]] awards you the {{badge|Cascade}}, which ensures obedience from all Pokémon up to level 30 and enables the use of {{m|Cut}} in the field. She also gives you {{TM|11|BubbleBeam}} as a prize.
[[Image:Route 24 RBY.png|thumb|right|Route 24]]


As you approach "Nugget Bridge", your rival appears.  He taunts you like usual, and challenges you to another battle. Let your weakest team member fight his {{p|Abra}} - its only move is {{m|Teleport}}, so there's no risk of taking any damage.
===Rival Battle 3===
When you head toward {{rt|24|Kanto}}, {{ga|Blue}} appears and taunts you as usual before drawing you into another battle. He leads with his {{p|Pidgeotto}}, so start off with {{t|Electric}}- and {{type|Rock}} attacks. His {{p|Abra}} is a sitting duck as {{m|Teleport|its only move}} does not deal any damage, making a good opportunity to earn experience for your lower-leveled Pokémon. {{p|Rattata}}'s {{m|Quick Attack}} lets it move first regardless of its {{stat|Speed}} and {{m|Hyper Fang}} can inflict a good bit of damage, so try to take it out quickly. His [[first partner Pokémon]] is more of a threat now that it has learned a damaging move that matches its type. This [[same-type attack bonus]] boosts its power by 50%. Avoid pitting your own first Pokémon against his, or your Pokémon could take serious damage.

With that battle over, there are sixteen Trainers between Cerulean City and the Sea Cottage.  Luckily, you can backtrack to the Poké Center to heal up as often as necessary.
{{rt|24|Kanto}} stretches north from [[Cerulean City]] to {{rt|25|Kanto}}. Most of the area is occupied by a river and the Nugget Bridge that crosses it.
 
Once you manage to beat the five Trainers on the bridge (and the Rocket grunt in disguise), you'll be rewarded with a {{DL|Valuable item|Nugget}} (worth {{pdollar}}5,000) for your efforts.

Now that you've gotten past the bridge, you can wander through the tall grass to the west and battle a Jr. Trainer♂. If you're looking for an Abra, consider putting it to {{status|sleep}} so it can't {{m|teleport}} away.  Don't forget to pick up {{TM|45|Thunder Wave}} on the northern ledge.  {{m|Thunder Wave}} is a non-damaging [[move]] that causes {{status|paralysis}}, which can be helpful when trying to capture new Pokémon. Turn east towards {{rt|25|Kanto}}.
===Nugget Bridge===
 
There are five Trainers to be fought on the famous Nugget Bridge. When all five are defeated, a man at the bridge's north end will reward you with a [[Nugget]], a bit of gold that can be sold for a high price. The man then reveals himself as a [[Team Rocket]] Grunt and tries to persuade you to join the group, and draws you into battle when you refuse.
== Route 25 ==
[[Image:Route 25 RBY.png|thumb|400px|right|Route 25]]


Nine Trainers left between you and Bill's Sea Cottage.
==Route 25==

[[File:Sea Cottage interior RBY.png|thumb|Inside Bill's house]]


When you see the Trainer standing in a line of trees with an item on the ground behind him, make sure to be at least three spaces away from him when you cross his line of sight.  You can't {{m|cut}} the tree down yet to get the item, so you'll have to lure him away from the trees to battle you.  After that battle, you can pick up the {{TM|19|Seismic Toss}} that was blocked off. {{m|Seismic Toss}} inflicts damage equal to the user's level, regardless of the battlers' {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Defense}}.
{{rt|25|Kanto}} leads eastward from {{rt|24|Kanto}}. The path winds its way through a forest before it ends overlooking the sea. The [[Sea Cottage]] is located on the east side.

===Sea Cottage===
[[Image:SeaCottage.png|thumb|right|Bill's house]]
====An Unfortunate Turn====
 
The [[Sea Cottage]] belongs to [[Bill]], a famous Pokémon researcher. When you step inside, it seems like Bill must be away, until you speak to the Pokémon inside. His latest experiment has gone awry and combined his DNA with that of a Pokémon! He needs your help, so once he has stepped into the machine, inspect his PC to activate a program to undo the change and return him to normal. As a token of gratitude, he gives you an [[S.S. Ticket]], which grants access to the [[S.S. Anne|luxury cruise ship]] currently docked in [[Vermilion City]] to the south.
Bill's got a problem: he screwed up an experiment and combined his DNA with that of a Pokémon.  It's not permanent though, so when he steps into the machine, use his PC to help him out. Once he's human again, he gives you an {{DL|List of key items in Generation I|S.S. Ticket}} as thanks.  This ticket lets you board the luxury cruiseliner [[S.S. Anne]] that's docked in the [[Vermilion City]] harbor.  Vermilion City also happens to be the location of the third Gym.  Before you leave [[Cerulean Cape]], step outside of Bill's house... and walk right back inside.  Check out the data on his PC to view his favorite Pokémon, the {{p|Eevee}} family (this also gives you four new pages of data in your Pokédex).  Now take the shortcut south of the cottage to easily backtrack to Cerulean City.
 


== Cerulean City ==
====Bill's Favorite Pokémon====
Stop in the Poké Center if needed, then get ready to hit the road again.
Before leaving the cape, you can exit and re-enter the cottage and inspect Bill's PC to view some of [[Eeveelution|his favorite Pokémon]]. This adds {{p|Vaporeon|three}} {{p|Jolteon|new}} {{p|Flareon|pages}} to your Pokédex.


Now that the police officer has moved out of the way, you can finally enter the home that was robbed by the [[Team Rocket|Rockets]]. Besides the obvious signs of a break-in, the intruder also left a gaping hole in the wall as an escape route.  Step through the hole, and you're jumped by the Rocket.
==Cerulean City==
===Justice, Served===
Once you return to [[Cerulean City]], the officer blocking the burgled house has stepped aside, allowing you to enter. Inside are obvious signs of a break-in, like muddy footprints and overturned planters. There is even a large hole in the wall! Step out through the hole to find and confront the thief.

After showing that thief that you're no pushover, he hands over the {{TM|28|Dig}} before running off. A handy TM, since using it in a cave lets you return to the entrance. Now head south, you've got a ship to catch!
When he is defeated, the Rocket Grunt gives up the stolen {{TM|28|Dig}} before fleeing the scene. When used inside a cave, Dig instantly returns you to the most recently visited [[Pokémon Center]]. It is useful in a pinch when you need to heal your Pokémon.

===Pokémon Day Care===
Having trouble getting your weaker team members into battle for experience?  Then you've come to the right place!  The man inside will accept one of your Pokémon at a time to raise for you while you're away. Whatever you choose to leave with him will gain 1 [[EXP|experience point]] for every step you take (if you bought the {{pdollar}}500 {{p|Magikarp}} near [[Mt. Moon]], this is a good way to raise it). The downside is that he'll make any decisions for you - he may delete a move you like, or ignore a new move altogether. He will charge you {{pdollar}}100 for every level your Pokémon gained to return it to you.

Revision as of 17:17, 10 March 2024

Enter a valid game code.


Cerulean City

Cerulean City

Cerulean City is a beautiful city with flowing water and blooming flowers. It is located between Route 4, Route 24, Route 9, and Route 5.


Time for a Trade

Visit the house next to the Pokémon Center to find an old man who would like to trade Pokémon. He is willing to part with his Jynx in exchange for a Poliwhirl. Poliwhirl can only be found by using a high-level fishing rod.

Gym Badges, Explained

The northwest house belongs to a man who offers to explains the effects of the eight Gym Badges. Half of them give a slight power boost to a respective stat, while the other half ensure a Pokémon's obedience during battle. The first five unlock the use of field moves.

Badge Effect Badge Effect
Boulder Badge Boulder Badge Increases Attack,
Allows Flash in the field
Cascade Badge Cascade Badge Ensures obedience up to level 30,
Allows Cut in the field
Thunder Badge Thunder Badge Increases Defense,
Allows Fly in the field
Rainbow Badge Rainbow Badge Ensures obedience up to level 50,
Allows Strength in the field
Soul Badge Soul Badge Increases Speed,
Allows Surf in the field
Marsh Badge Marsh Badge Ensures obedience up to level 70
Volcano Badge Volcano Badge Increases Special Earth Badge Earth Badge Ensures obedience up to level 100

Bike Shop

It would be great to get a Bicycle from the Bike Shop in the southwest part of town, but they cost a whopping $1,000,000! It is not possible to carry that much money, so it looks like you are stuck traveling on foot for now.

Breaking, Entering

The house in the northeast is currently blocked off by a police officer. It seems that Team Rocket has broken into the home and stolen a valuable item from its residents. Nothing can be done to remedy this at the moment, so set your sights on the Gym instead.

Cerulean Gym

Cerulean Gym

CERULEAN CITY POKéMON GYM
LEADER: MISTY

The Tomboyish Mermaid!

The Cerulean Gym specializes in Water-type Pokémon. Grass- and Electric-type moves are best here, while Fire, Ground, and Rock Pokémon may struggle. Pikachu is a good choice to bring along, and Oddish and Bellsprout can be found on the nearby Route 24.

Take out Misty's Staryu quickly to move on to her Starmie. Her second Pokémon is both stronger and faster than Staryu, making its BubbleBeam especially painful to vulnerable Pokémon. Use Pikachu's ThunderShock, or Grass moves like Vine Whip and Absorb, to deal serious damage and make quick work of it.

Cerulean Gym
Cascade Badge





After the battle, Misty awards you the Cascade Badge, which ensures obedience from all Pokémon up to level 30 and enables the use of Cut in the field. She also gives you TM11 (BubbleBeam) as a prize.

Rival Battle 3

When you head toward Route 24, Blue appears and taunts you as usual before drawing you into another battle. He leads with his Pidgeotto, so start off with Electric- and Rock-type attacks. His Abra is a sitting duck as its only move does not deal any damage, making a good opportunity to earn experience for your lower-leveled Pokémon. Rattata's Quick Attack lets it move first regardless of its Speed and Hyper Fang can inflict a good bit of damage, so try to take it out quickly. His first partner Pokémon is more of a threat now that it has learned a damaging move that matches its type. This same-type attack bonus boosts its power by 50%. Avoid pitting your own first Pokémon against his, or your Pokémon could take serious damage.

Route 24

Route 24

Route 24 stretches north from Cerulean City to Route 25. Most of the area is occupied by a river and the Nugget Bridge that crosses it.


Nugget Bridge

There are five Trainers to be fought on the famous Nugget Bridge. When all five are defeated, a man at the bridge's north end will reward you with a Nugget, a bit of gold that can be sold for a high price. The man then reveals himself as a Team Rocket Grunt and tries to persuade you to join the group, and draws you into battle when you refuse.

Route 25

Route 25
Inside Bill's house

Route 25 leads eastward from Route 24. The path winds its way through a forest before it ends overlooking the sea. The Sea Cottage is located on the east side.


Sea Cottage

An Unfortunate Turn

The Sea Cottage belongs to Bill, a famous Pokémon researcher. When you step inside, it seems like Bill must be away, until you speak to the Pokémon inside. His latest experiment has gone awry and combined his DNA with that of a Pokémon! He needs your help, so once he has stepped into the machine, inspect his PC to activate a program to undo the change and return him to normal. As a token of gratitude, he gives you an S.S. Ticket, which grants access to the luxury cruise ship currently docked in Vermilion City to the south.

Bill's Favorite Pokémon

Before leaving the cape, you can exit and re-enter the cottage and inspect Bill's PC to view some of his favorite Pokémon. This adds three new pages to your Pokédex.

Cerulean City

Justice, Served

Once you return to Cerulean City, the officer blocking the burgled house has stepped aside, allowing you to enter. Inside are obvious signs of a break-in, like muddy footprints and overturned planters. There is even a large hole in the wall! Step out through the hole to find and confront the thief.


When he is defeated, the Rocket Grunt gives up the stolen TM28 (Dig) before fleeing the scene. When used inside a cave, Dig instantly returns you to the most recently visited Pokémon Center. It is useful in a pinch when you need to heal your Pokémon.

Route 5

Route 5

Route 5 is a scenic road that runs downhill from Cerulean City to Saffron City. The first of the region's two Underground Paths begins here and runs southward underneath Saffron City to re-emerge on Route 6.


Pokémon Day Care

The house on the hill is the Pokémon Day Care. The old man inside will raise one Pokémon at a time while you are away. A Pokémon left here will gain one experience point for every step taken. If you bought the Magikarp near Mt. Moon, this is a good way to raise it. The downside is that he will make every decision, so he may end up deleting a move you would like to keep. He charges $100, plus another $100 for every new level, to return a Pokémon.

Underground Path

It is impossible to reach Saffron City at the moment, so enter the Underground Path and follow the tunnel to Route 6.


Time for a Trade

A girl in the north gate is looking to trade. She is willing to part with her Nidoran♀ in exchange for a Nidoran♂.
