[[Pallet Town]] is a rather boring, quaint town, with only three buildings. The house to the west belongs to the {{player}}, the one to the east belongs to {{ga|Blue}}, and the big building to the south is [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|Oak's Laboratory]].

* {{p|Squirtle}} is medium for a beginner. It can defeat the Pewter, Cinnabar, and Viridian Gyms without much effort, but can do little against the {{gy|Vermilion}} and {{gy|Celadon}} Gyms. Its movepool is relatively limited, and it may have trouble against the other {{type|Water}} Pokémon in the [[Cerulean Gym]]. Squirtle's final evolution, {{p|Blastoise}}, is capable of learning {{t|Ice}} and {{t|Ground}} moves like {{m|Blizzard}} and {{m|Earthquake}} to cover its weaknesses. For STAB, it can learn {{m|Surf}} as well as {{m|Hydro Cannon}} and {{m|Hydro Pump}}.

During the battle, Oak will explain a few basics. If the player's Pokémon is running low on {{stat|HP|health}}, the player may use the {{DL|Potion|Potion}} from the PC. Regardless of which two Pokémon face off, their chances of winning are about the same; none of them know any moves of their own type, so Blue has no advantage just yet. When the battle ends, he leaves the Lab.

Upon delivering {{key|III|Oak's Parcel|the package}} to [[Professor Oak|Oak]], his grandson returns to the lab. Oak then gives each Trainer a [[Pokédex]], an electronic encyclopedia that will be used to catalog every Pokémon in existence. In addition, each receives five {{ball|Poké}}s to start them on their journey. {{ga|Blue}} remarks that he doesn't need any help—he will get a [[Town Map]] from his sister, [[Daisy Oak|Daisy]], and tell her not to give the player one. Despite this, Daisy will still give out a map anyway.

{{rt|22|Kanto}} is a short route that leads west from {{ci|Viridian}}. The path is a dead-end right now, but there are still new Pokémon to find. The {{type|Fighting}} {{p|Mankey}} will be useful at the first Gym, and even more so if the player chose {{p|Charmander}}.

{{ga|Blue}} reappears halfway along the route, and challenges the player to another battle. He has added a {{p|Pidgey}} since the previous battle, but this should still be an easy fight.
