[tai1365]

What about Contests (which was a big part of Ruby and Sapphire)? And exactly how many PKMN are in the games (202 like Ruby and Sapphire, or 151 like the originals, will there be a few Johto/Hoen PKMN, or will it all be Kanto PKMN and their (un)evolutions)?

[DarkFlareon]

And, will their be running shoes? :p I need running shoes.

[Sturgy]

Wow these games look really good I may even get a copy. I would have thought that they could come up with more imaginative names for the islands instead of island 1 and island 2 those are just drab.

Are they sticking with fire red and leaf green or will leaf green be ocean blue?

[PhazonElite]

Maybe it will be possible to accumulate all the known pokemon into one version.

[Sturgy]

That would be a very good Idea. I would also like to see all the different regions in one game. It wouldn't all fit but it would be cool.

[wobmaster]

Hm... maybe they could come out with a series where there are 2 carts and you switch carts halfway through.. :rolleyes:

[BusterBladerLord]

Hm... maybe they could come out with a series where there are 2 carts and you switch carts halfway through.. :rolleyes:
That wouldn't really work, unless the GBA has some memeory to store info while you switch carts, or a password, but i doubt the password thing would work

[Shining Celebi]

That wouldn't really work, unless the GBA has some memeory to store info while you switch carts, or a password, but i doubt the password thing would work

As far as I know, it doesn't...

The password thing could work, but then people could also get to stuff by just guessing passwords...so maybe not. And it would be a really long password if you wanted to keep all your stuff.

[Venusaur1]

Yeh this game is goign to be great most liekly the older pokemon will be in it and the graphics are wicked awesome like r/s equivalents. @ mystery island but other then that looking at the new pictures on Serebii.net the places look almost exactly the same for example the "expresso" guy in r/b/y that picture looks exactly the same but with better graphics. And they have cool mini games and they got a cool adapter that you can battle/ play mini games with up to 5 people from 33 feet away with no wire thats just sick. And the new pokedex is awesoem it tells you what you can catch in the area and all teh tm's are from r/s and they have 1 or 2 hms that werent in the older r/b version

[Sturgy]

Can I just get this straight you can trade with Ruby and Sapphire can you not?

[Shining Celebi]

I'm 99% sure you'd be able to, there's no reason I know of that you WOULDN'T be able to.

[Sturgy]

That is great. Can't wait to get a Ditto. Hahahaha.

[Mobilesuitgundra]

so, wait... why would they update the original if they were just going to add all sorts of new stuff, plus have all the monsters?


Wouldn't it just be like R/S, except in Kanto?

[NarutoKun128]

Not all Pokémon are in these games. It's different than the originals for obvious reasons, and you'll be able to trade so you can now have a team in Kanto with a Pokémon from the Hoenn Region. And also, The Ruby and Sapphire games wuld not be complete without the other Pokémon.

[Absol]

The TMs and HMs are the same as RS??????? NOOOO!!!!!

I want Rock Slide back!!!

You can trade between RS and FRLG... also, FRLG are compatible with Colliseum...

[Shining Celebi]

[QUOTE=Absol]The TMs and HMs are the same as RS??????? NOOOO!!!!!
QUOTE]

That sucks. =\

I wonder why they don't want to make new TMs?

[Dan the Pokeman]

That sucks. =\

I wonder why they don't want to make new TMs?

I'm taking a guess here, but:

Remember when you could trade between G/S/C and the original R/B/Y, but only if none of the Pokemon knew moves that didn't exist in the older games (the time machine thingy)?

I suspect they did it to avoid that problem. If they created a TM/HM that doesn't exist in R/S, it wouldn't recognize it, and you wouldn't be able to trade that TM/HM or a Pokemon that knows it from F/G to R/S.

[Betelgeux]

If the games are really have a lot of differences from Ruby/Sapphire, I might buy one of them... but I'd have to re-finish Sapphire first (old file was deleted on accident).

[RareHunterX]

Here you go people another Link for you
and tehy hve been reaslesed today....its looks awesome

Pkemon Elite (http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/fireredleafgreen.html)

[RareHunterX]

you must remember..they are loads of moves that were programmed into R/S but weren't actaully learnable by any pokemon ....moves Like Hydro cannon /Blast burn/ volt tackle may be in there along with some other moves

[Shining Celebi]

I'm taking a guess here, but:

But it's easy to fix that problem, you just don't allow trading of TM/HMs between the games. As long as they were previously existing moves on the Pokémon themselves, that would be fine.

[Spiritual Rain]

If the games were to be compatable, they would have to have the TMs and HMs the same... otherwise there would basically be 100 TMs available... and that's not cool. ;)

[darklogos]

I know everyone is grieving about the tms. But thats why I shark. Not only that think about pokemon that could learn swords dance, earthquake, and rockslide. That would not be cool for nintedo. I would like it but they won't.

[DragonSol]

I think they will definetly introduce new TMs, but which ones do you think that theyll be?

[RareHunterX]

FR/LG are out in Japan...so u can find out frrom anyone who has the Japaneese copy...o wait to find more ino on it...i doubt though there will be new TM's....but then again if there were then that would be cool

[HoundoomCrunch]

So when are these games coming out here? I want to know so I can save up some money!

Also, will there we old new pokemon like Houndoom and Chikorita? And super new pokes like Glalie and Salamence?

[Shining Celebi]

I'm curious about that too, since I have a birthday coming up. Has anything been released about the release date here?

[Absol]

NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone has taken the sacred name of Houndoom!!!!!
When I saw Houndoom I thought it was HR! but instead it's someone else...

GSC pokes are available in a RPG thing on colliseum... you have to trade RS pokes to FRLG...

I dont mean new TMs... I want the RBY TMs... Swords Dance and Rock Slide!

[NarutoKun128]

[Absol]

yeah!!!! they are smart! move tutors for the old TMs!!! but what is the point of Softboiled since Chansey/Blissey learn it...

[Venusaur1]

possibly for them to learn it earlier or a different pokemon to learn it if possible

[shineyaltaria]

It would be great to find out when the other release dates are. I remember someone speculating that it would be a year after the R/S release dates but think that was only a guess.

[Betelgeux]

It would be great to find out when the other release dates are. I remember someone speculating that it would be a year after the R/S release dates but think that was only a guess.

If that were the case, Nintendo Power and other gaming magazines would have been all over them for months in advance. I think it'll be a while loner yet.

[DragonSol]

Hmmmmmmm I hope they put more double battles in FR/LG. I was hoping for more in Ru/Sa, but we didnt get that much without battling the same old pokemon over and over.

[Venusaur1]

yes that was disappointing. The information b4 r/s was released in english it was said that you could choose if you wanted to do double battles and some trainers will chose not to battle you if they dont do double battles. But anyway there will be double battles and hopefully more

[Linzoy]

Imagine if there where triple battles and you had to catch all three legendary birds at once, that would be fun.

[Venusaur1]

well it wood be different

[Shining Celebi]

It'd be really hard to catch three at once. o.o

[Venusaur1]

the 3 legendarys are no where near eachother anwyays

[wobmaster]

Would be neat if they all challenged you at once...probably get destroyed though...

these games sound cool; I might buy one...

[Marinefire]

I think these games will probably be released stateside in August-October, possibly even November.

But they are going to be great.

[Venusaur1]

It will come out around May

[tai1365]

This game is sort of dissapointing at first (Day Care Person can't breed, no contests, initially no RS or GSC PKMN), but the 7 Orange Islands (Yes, the Mystery Islands are probably the Orange Islands, there are 7 of them, after all) remedies that with a new breeding center and battle tower. Plus, the old RBY TMs are available at select move tutors, along with some new, powerful RS moves!

[Sashiwa]

Let's hope they did not disable Mew...

[Shining Celebi]

Well, I really really doubt they left the Mew glitch/cheat in. :3

[wobmaster]

Ooooh ive bbn hoping for a game w/ the O islands in it! Though the game wud be kinda bland w/ no contests or R/S pokes so theyed need something to perk up the attention of many players

[Venusaur1]

They are just islands or i should say 7 of them some more good news Johto Pokemon can be caught on one island!

[DragonSol]

The Orange Islands were from the show, right? What did Ash do there, anyway?

[Venusaur1]

there were 4 orange island badges

[Shining Celebi]

The Orange Islands were from the show, right? What did Ash do there, anyway?

Enter the Orange League, caught a few Pokémon, met Tracey, I think...

[wobmaster]

He surfed about on lapras w/ misty and tracy and had weird gym battles, then won the leauge

[Venusaur1]

btw who here is definetly getting fr/lg?

[Venusaur1]

Sorry for the double post but the islands are called "Rainbow Islands" and Lugia an Ho-Oh are catchable legnedarys in the game!

[NarutoKun128]

-New Stuff for Fushcia City-
Move Deleter is located here
Move Tutor is also located here.
Safari Zone is here
Koga is the Gym Leader

[Absol]

those last 2 arent new things...

[Shining Celebi]

Well, in G/S/C the Safari Zone was closed and Koga was in the E4, so sort of.

Sorry for the double post but the islands are called "Rainbow Islands" and Lugia an Ho-Oh are catchable legnedarys in the game!

w00t!

[Venusaur1]

what does w00t mean

[Linzoy]

It means lugia is the best pokemon in the whole world and there should be a seperate battle tower for legendarys.

[Venusaur1]

i cant believe how awesome this game will be

[wobmaster]

yeah they look really good! i mite buy one :)

[Venusaur1]

tobad the price is higher then usual 45-48$

[wobmaster]

Ive got enuff-i mite wait for it to go down-im in no hurry to get it :)

[Venusaur1]

WOW! On the 9th rainbow island there is a puzzle when you complete it the ground shakes and Deoxy Appears! He is catchable in FR/LG

[NarutoKun128]

It's amazing how enhanced Red and Green versions can have so many new things. Fire Red and Leaf Green are very anticipating, maybe even more than Ruby/Sapphire! The islands are FULL of legendaries. FR/LG is one giant game.

[Venusaur1]

yes im so impressed theres apossiblitly of even mroe legnedarys in the game we already got articuno moltres zapdoes lugia ho-oh mewtwo and now Deoxy this game is incredible

[Mobilesuitgundra]

Green would be mine if my GBA wasn't broken.... dangit!

[NarutoKun128]

I concur, Venusaur1!

I just hope Mew is sitting around somewhere.

[Venusaur1]

with all tehse rainbow islands i wouldnt be suprised if all the legendarys are in it

[Venusaur1]

Heres a list of the whereabouts of each legendary pokemon found in FR/LG

Articuno
-------
Seafoam islands at level 50

Zapdoes
---------
powerplant level 50

Moltres
-------
Rainbow island 1 Level 50

Mewtwo
--------
Uknown Dungeon level 70. You need 100 pokemon to enter the unknown dungeon

You can either get Rakiou/suicune or entie in your version depending on your starter

Rakiou
-----
It is level 50. It will start runnign around kanto after you defeat the elite 4. this pokemon appears only if you picked squirtle as your starter

Entie
------
It is level 50. It will start runnign around kanto after you defeat the elite 4. this pokemon appears only if you picked bulbasuar as your starter

Suicune
--------
It is level 50. It will start runnign around kanto after you defeat the elite 4. this pokemon appears only if you picked charmander as your starter

Ho-Oh
------
Found on rainbow island 8 on the left. Level 70

Lugia
------
Found at level 70 on teh right of rainbow island

Deoxys
-------
Appears on rainbow island 9. He appears after you complete the puzzle on rainbow island 9 at level 30

[NarutoKun128]

Alos, depending on which game it is (Ruby/Sapphire, Fire Red, or Leaf Green), Deoxys' sprite is different. Strange how he is the only Hoenn Pokémon that's not found in Ruby/Sapphire first, but is in FR/LG.

[Venusaur1]

yeah theres so many legendarys thats really wierd

[Venusaur1]

And mew is Supposedly in this game but the location isnt confirmed yet

[Betelgeux]

Rakiou
-----
It is level 50. It will start runnign around kanto after you defeat the elite 4. this pokemon appears only if you picked squirtle as your starter

Entie
------
It is level 50. It will start runnign around kanto after you defeat the elite 4. this pokemon appears only if you picked bulbasuar as your starter

Suicune
--------
It is level 50. It will start runnign around kanto after you defeat the elite 4. this pokemon appears only if you picked charmander as your starter


Dang... I'd rather not pick Charmander, but I must have Suicune... Interesting how the one you get is set to have an advantage over your starter.

[Venusaur1]

i was just thinking it was random i didnt notice that The thing is for people that love legendarys the elite 4 will be so easy considering catching Mewtwo Deoxys Lugia Ho-Oh Moltres Zapdoes and Articuno can be caught b4 you enter the elite 4 but i will catch them but probably not use them

[Betelgeux]

Hm... that definitely would make the whole League very easy. It'll be interesting to see if anyone tries it without the legendaries.

[Venusaur1]

iwill i dont need legendarys to beat my battles

[Betelgeux]

iwill i dont need legendarys to beat my battles

It's just that so many people have legendary Pokémon on their teams. It gets boring after a while... no variety. :(

[Absol]

but you use the same types of attacks on a pokemon... and you dont ev train...

[Venusaur1]

yeh i no its called switching out pokemon something alot of people dont do because they have all different types of moves.

[Absol]

but if you used varied attacks, you wouldnt take as much damage from getting attacked when switching out...

[Venusaur1]

thats what items are for

[Absol]

but thats pointless damage... if you just used varied attacks, you'd get an advantage over your opponents...

[Venusaur1]

i dont need to win with brute strength

[Absol]

against a person with varied attacks, you would lose...

say you had a Water pokemon... if they switch to Grass, and you have only Water attacks, you have to switch or die... if you had Ice Beam, you could pretty easily take out their Grass pokemon...

[Venusaur1]

in the game alot of times they have te hsame type of moves 2

[Absol]

but that is usually because they go by the list of moves that they learn... most varied attacks come from TMs...

[R64.0]

*gulp*

The old Safari Zone is back, huh? You don't know if they went back to the Rock/Bait/Ball system, do ya? :(

*run* *run* *run*
Come back here, Tauros!
*run* *run* *run*
Nooo! Don't run, Kangaskhan!
*run* *run* *run*
Chanseeeeeeeey!
*ding* *dong*
Aaaah, phooey!

[Betelgeux]

That got old fast.... I spent so much time and money looking for Pokémon that way. The only thing I ever found easy to catch was Dratini, and only because they're easy to fish up and don't require you to take many steps.

[Maikou]

tobad the price is higher then usual 45-48$

We have confirmed US prices? If not then it isn't really safe to convert the yen price because game prices can, and have been changed when brought overseas. Normally due to the current market and area. An example, houses in San Fransisco generally cost more due to the fact that people make more money in that area. Perhaps in certain areas of Japan their income is higher and therefor things cost more.

[LOUDMOUTH MALCONTENT]

I reakon the release date will be around May/June. If I recall, RuSa were released in Japan in Nov 2002, and they were released in the rest of the world around March/April 2003. So there would probably be a 5 month delay as there was before.

[Shining Celebi]

i was just thinking it was random i didnt notice that The thing is for people that love legendarys the elite 4 will be so easy considering catching Mewtwo Deoxys Lugia Ho-Oh Moltres Zapdoes and Articuno can be caught b4 you enter the elite 4 but i will catch them but probably not use them

Actually, I could have sworn you got them after you beat the Elite 4.

[Betelgeux]

I wonder if they are going to change the title again, just like they did with Pokémon Green? Green Leaf sounds a lot better than Aqua Blue... of course, that could just be me.

[Maikou]

So what G/S pokemon do we still need colluseum for? I counted about 35 Johto pokemon that are not catchable in RU/SA or FR/LG.

[NarutoKun128]

I'm sure Nintendo won't be changing the names. There's nothing wrong with Leaf Green's title. Also, I believe the only reason the original Grren was changed to Blue was because of the many lack of accurate and good sprites, or because of how many bugs in the game of the Japanese Red and Green.

[Maikou]

Yes, originally in Japan they released a red and green game. They had really bad sprites and were just not put together very well. Soon a blue version was released that was an upgraded red and green. When the games crossed the seas, NOA decided to just remake the games using the advanced blue engine, but with the certain available pokemon in each version intact. Also NOA changed around some in game trading and stuff, like in Red and Green you had to trade for Tauros and Kangaskhan, but Jynx was caught freely in the Sea Foam Islands. But, for some unknown reason, NOA changed the updated green version's name to blue, which was incorrect because blue was really Japan's seperate upgraded game, but NOA had just used blue's engine for their games.

[R64.0]

Since Red/Blue were the original games in the US, I'm still betting on them changing the names to Fire Red/Water Blue.

[LOUDMOUTH MALCONTENT]

I wonder if they change the E4 from Red & Blue. I hope they do cos' I always enjoyed the new E4 line-up in each game for the first time, it makes it that much more fun and compelling when you wait for what it says they'll send out next. What would also rock is if the last E4 trainer in FRLG wasn't a dragon trainer, cos honestly, most of them have quad weaknesses and can all be taken down by one average pokemon sporting ice beam. Either that or make the E4 way stronger.

[Betelgeux]

So what G/S pokemon do we still need colluseum for? I counted about 35 Johto pokemon that are not catchable in RU/SA or FR/LG.

There are still missing Pokémon?

[DragonSol]

I hope they dont change the names, i like FR/LG better than water blue or something related... i will prolly buy leaf green (i love grass pokemon).

[Maikou]

There are still missing Pokémon?

Well, according to Seribeii.net's list of pokemon you can catch in FR/LG I made a list of Gold and Silver era pokemon that you still cannot get in FR/LG or Ru/Sa.

Don't forget that some if not all of those will be available in the RPG mode of Colosseum. I know I've seen screenshots showing Croconaw and Flaafy with "dark auras".

[RareHunterX]

if they call it Pokemon- Ocean Blue- tha don't sound half baad..i' getti nthis soon as its out

[NarutoKun128]

I don't know if they will change it to Blue or not. The intro for each game shows the Pokémon on the cover of the box. (e.g; Charizard in Fire Red and Venusaur in Leaf Green). Since Blastoise has not been on any cover box or intro pics, there's no reason for it like there was the first time it was changed.

[Venusaur1]

leaf green=water blue(confirmed)

also ireally hope in USA we dont get update of yellow version because then we put our FR/WB away and then whip out this game just because pikachu follows u

[Betelgeux]

I was hoping they'd bring back all the Pokémon... I really want a game that I can get all of them on without sharking. :/

[Venusaur1]

they are bringing back just about all, all the old ones anyways

[RareHunterX]

Yay..i hve the game.....no prizes for guessin how..if anyone else wnats one....message me..same music as the old game...i'll post moe info later

[Maikou]

Well I'm REALLY curious to know about the Aurora ticket thing that you need to get to Triangle Island to catch Deoxys. Is it available in-game? If not then, well, another Nintendo gimmick that most of the pokecommunity is cheated out of (I don't use an AR)... When will Nintendo learn? When I first found out about it I thought, "Wow. Nintendo did something GOOD for once. Deoxys is seeming more and more like the new Mewtwo, while Jirachi is like a new Mew." But now... ...I just don't know...

[Absol]

NOOO!!!!
Nidoking was killed!!! Why did they give him Poison Point????
Poison Point rivals Truant for uselessness... it's even worse than Pickup!
regular poison is the worst status condition you can give them... it only lowers 1/16 and has no side effect... :x ... he should have gotten Rough Skin or something USEFUL!...

[DragonSol]

I totally agree with you Absol. Nidoking was one of my pokemon origanally for Red, but Poisen point really sucks bad.

[wobmaster]

you said pickup sucks, pickup rules!!! :cool:

and if they gave him a good ability, he'd be way to strong...

[RareHunterX]

i used Nidoking a bit as well..in Rd...but since then..hvn't been bothered...

[Jo Mamma]

-i like knowing alot but a walkthrough is way to much

[Betelgeux]

Isn't the FR/LG walkthrough pretty much the same as R/B? They've made a lot of technical changes, but it's still a Kanto thing, yes?

[R64.0]

Nidoking gets Megahorn. Psychic types beware. XD

[RareHunterX]

Just a question about RF/GL, will there be Joto/Kanto?
Its kanto only...with 9 new islands...where u can get the Legendaries such as Ho-oh lugia, Moltres... Deoxys( yes evn him) etc..

[DragonSol]

[Venusaur1]

[Venusaur1]

Venusaur, that comment isnt needed... you dont need a walkthrough to make your team...

[Venusaur1]

For the people who are not getting collesium theres a confirmed alternative way to fix the "Berrgy Glitch".

#1 get to the start up screen with FR/LG
#2 Still on the title screen press select and B . It will then go to a screen t osee if you want to confirm this action. Press A.
#3 Plug link in the 2 games. The GBA with FR/LG has to have the 1 player port and the GBA with R/S with the port 2 cable part.Press A once this is done
#4 Turn on GBA with R/S and as soon as it gets to the gameboy screen press start and select.
#5 The game will detect this and begin transfering teh fix. The Cartridge will now be fixed forever!

[WaterWillRule]

[King Politoed]

[Betelgeux]

Is there an official English release date of the games yet?

[DragonSol]

About the aromatherapist, which is going to be better, parasect or vileplume?

Vileplume is my choice.

[Venusaur1]

Parasect for me (vileplumes) sprite is really bad. There is no confirmed date a few months tho

[Absol]

Parasect is terrible... one Aerial Ace or Flamethrower and it's dead...

btw, you can already get Vileplume...

[Venusaur1]

yeah but him and bellossom have the worst sprites EVER!

[Absol]

no... Swampert has teh worst...

[Venusaur1]

is there a site around that showsyou spritesof pokemon when you use them? I had it in my favorites a year ago and then my comp crashed

[Busterslash35]

We pretty much KNOW that they took the Missingno glitch/cheat out, same with the Cinnabar/recent pkmn thing. I'm glad they took out that frickin' S.S. Anne truck so there won't be any rumors about it and Mew.. What is that you're surfing on this time? I can't really tell from the PokeElite screenshot.. I wish they had included more of those scenery pics when you enter a cave/forest/whatever.. those were pretty neat..

[Venusaur1]

the truck could still be their and mew may be obtainable somehow. their are more then 10 of those i think thats a good amount

[Absol]

Mew has to be obtainable in game... they are not doing another promotion thing ever!!! at least that's what I hope...

[Venusaur1]

its on the pokedex of obtainable pokemon the last time i checked just havent seen how hes obtainable if he still is

[Absol]

I know that its in the pokedex! what I mean is that he should be CATCHABLE in game...

[Venusaur1]

I know that its in the pokedex! what I mean is that he should be CATCHABLE in game...

im referring to the FR/LG pokedex which means the pokemon are on it are in the game!

[Absol]

know, Jirachi is on the pokedex, but Jirachi isnt catchable in the game...

[Venusaur1]

then what was the 1st berry glitch cure?

[Absol]

not CATCHABLE... you can get it, but you dont catch it ingame...

in other words, you have to use something outside of the gameboy and the cart to get the pokemon...
[hr]

[Venusaur1]

not CATCHABLE... you can get it, but you dont catch it ingame...

in other words, you have to use something outside of the gameboy and the cart to get the pokemon...
[hr]

yeah i know that same thing with mew

[Absol]

:x... what I meant originally was that I hoped you could get Mew in FRLG without the stupid Nintendo promotions...

[Venusaur1]

oops sorry

[Venusaur1]

a little more is known about FR/LG

Trainer Cards
---------------
Green: You get this card right away without doing anything
Bronze: You get this once you beat the elite four (1st star)
Copper: Once you catch all pokemon 1-150 (2nd Star)

Some more will be known soon

Part one of the walkthrough
________________________


Nintendo has done it again! Just more than a year after the release of Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire, it will be releasing a remake of Pokemon Red and Green (Blue in the US) on the 29th of January in Japan. The game, Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green might be more than just a mere remake though. There will be some extra features, and definitely improved graphics and gameplay. Pokemon Red and Green were the games that started it all. Since then, many Pokemon games have been released across many Nintendo console and handheld. Each game offering new experience and Pokemon. However, Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green are different. It will bring back Pokemon Red and Green, with graphics and gameplay that are comparable to Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire. There is no denying that many will anticipate the release of this game. Older fans will certainly relish the experience of playing Pokemon Red and Green once again. Nostalgia, which is what this game is all about.

New advanced Graphics
Compability with Colloseum
Compability with Ru/Sa
The First GBA game to support Nintendo new wireless device
New Female Trainer
New Islands
Various Mini Games
2 on 2 battles (not really new, since it's in Ru/Sa)
Walkthrough - Kanto

NOTE: This walkthrough is based on the Fire Red version of the game. There are some differences between Fire Red and Leaf Green. This walkthrough will try to cover both versions as far as possible. Unfortunately, there are some areas in which this could not be done. In order to help your search, you might want to use the Find (Ctrl+F) feature.

Game Basics



Skip this section unless this is the first time that you've played any Pokemon games. Veterans from R/B/Y and G/S/C days will find the basic control of Fire/Leaf is more or less the same.

Here are the controls in Pokemon Fire/Leaf:

Directional Pads
This is used to move around the map, or used to move to another option of the menu.

A button
Choose this to confirm an option.

B button
This is used if you want cancel an option.

Start Button
This is used to bring in main menu on the main map.

Select Button
You can register an item and use tem easily by using the select button. You can also re-arrange the order of moves by using this button. An often overlooked button in the days of R/B/Y.

L and R
This button is used for Nothing. However, you can change it's function to work like the A and B button from the setting option.



Start menu:


Pokedex - This is simply your Pokedex
Pokemon - Choosing this option will list the Pokemon in your party

Option - Use this to cahnge the battle mode, frame styles, etc

Stopping evolution
Press the "B" button while your Pokemon is evolving...

Teaching Pokemon a HM/TM
Go to your pack select a TM/HM and use them to one of your Pokemon. (Not all Pokemon may be able to learn a particular moves).

Using a HM in the field
Press A against the obstacle that you want to go through. This works for every HM except for Flash. You could also do it manually by going to the Pokemon status screen and the option to use HM will appear if you check each individual Pokemon

Someone PC's (later Bill's PC)
There's an option for you here to change your PC wallpaper as well as rename the boxes. Another useless addition to the Pokemon PC. However, something that will interest you would be the fact that Pokemon will be sent to the next empty boxes. In other words, you don't have to change your PC boxes when its full. No more tearing your hairs out when you discover your PC Box is full when you are throwing a ball at legendary Pokemon.

Pokedex
Below are the explanations of the various menus in Pokedex.
Pokedex Type - This shows the two basic Pokedex type
Kanto Dex - This will take you to the original R/B/Y Pokedex, the 151 original Pokemon.

Pallet Town - The Beginning

The adventure begins. You start out in your room. Before you go down the stairs, you might want to take out a potion out of your PC. Now, head down the stairs and out of the house. If you tried to go to the lab, you'll find out that Professor Oak is not in the lab, and only your soon to be rival. (for convenience sake we shall call the rival as Blue from now on).Now head north out of the town to Route 1. Before you can proceed any further, you'll be stopped by none other than Professor Oak. He will tell you to follow him to the laboratory.

Here, Professor Oak would give two pokemon for both you and Blue. You may pick first. Head to the table with three pokeballs on it. On the left, is Bulbasaur a grass Pokemon. On the middle is Squirtle a water Pokemon, on the right is Charmander a fire Pokemon. After choosing your starter, it is your rival's turn to pick his starter. Now that both of you are done, head for the exit. Here Blue will tell you that he wants to battle you.

Rival Battle #1
If you choose Bulbasaur:
Blue Pokemon: Charmander lvl 5


If you choose Charmander:
Blue Pokemon: Squirtle lvl 5

If you choose Squirtle:
Blue Pokemon: Bulbasaur lvl 5

This battle shouldn't be too hard. That potion you picked up from the PC will help greatly for this battle. There arenn't really any strategies involved for this battle, since both your pokemon and Blue's Pokemon only knew the basic attack. (Tackle, Scratch, etc). If you win, your Pokemon will gain a level.

Now you've beaten/defeated by Blue, it's time to get starting with your Pokemon adventures. Head North out of the town to route 1. This route is a short one, and there are no trainers at all. You may want to battle the wild Pokemon and levelled up your Pokemon a few level. Soon you'll arrive at Viridian City.




Viridian City - A Tranquil Town

Not much you can do here at the moment. The gym is closed, and there's an old man blocking your way at north of the city. Head to the Pokemart. The shopkeeper will tell you that he has a package to be delivered to Professor Oak. Now, head back to Pallet town through route 1. Go to the Professor laboratory, and gives the packgage to Professor Oak. In return, he'll give you a Pokedex. Before you could leave, a familiar face pops in. It's none other than Blue. He is also given a Pokedex by the old professor. Now that you have the Pokedex with you, it's time to capture some Pokemon. Talk to one of the professor aides to get 5 free Pokeballs. Alternatively, you can buy them at Viridian PokeMart at the price of P200.

Whether you decided to train or catch some Pokemon, head back to the Viridian City. Head West to pay a visit to the Pokemon Leauge building. There's nothing you can do here at the moment, since you have no badges yet. However, there will be another battle against your Rival.

Rival Battle #2
Pidgey - lvl 9
|| Bulbasaur/Charmander/Squirtle - lvl 10

Your level should be as high as his Pokemon at this moment. This battle shouldn't be a problem. Now Head back to Viridian City. Head North, and you'll find the old man has awaken from his sleep. Talk to him and he'll show you how to capture a Pokemon. In any case head North to Route 2. You'll arrive in Viridian Forest in no time.




Viridian Forest - Where bugs and Pikachu lurk

As you enter the forest, you'll see a short cut-scene from a 1st person perspective. Viridian Forest contains a lot of bug Pokemon, and in addition to that, you can also capture a Pikachu. You might want to consider capturing it for later. From here, head to your right and continue on north. There will be some trainers along the way. (mostly bug catcher). The forest are pretty straightforward, and you shouldn't be lost in it. Head for the exit and you'll end up in the other end of route 2. Head North and soon you'll arrive in Pewter City.




Pewter City - City of Hard Rock

Head for the Pokemon Center to heal your Pokemon. By this time your starter should be at least more than level 10. Any lower than that, I would suggest to level it up. You can go for the gym now, or you might fancy taking a look around the town, there's a museum in the city. Once you're done with the sightseeing, it's time for some serious business. Head for the Pewter Gym, and face the junior trainer. You shouldn't be having any problems defeating him if your levels are high enough. Now, talk to the gym leader and a battle will ensue.

Pewter Gym Leader Brock
Pokemon Used:
Geodude - level 12
Onix - level 14

This battle isn't a hard one. If you choose Bulbasaur/Squirtle you have type advantages here. Using your starter alone should be sufficient here. If you win the battle, Brock will give you TM 39 - Rock Tomb.

Now heal your Pokemon and head East to route 3. There's another one of Professor Oak's aides there. He will give you the Running Shoes. The running shoes will enable you to sprint through terrains. It can be used everywhere except inside buildings. To use the running shoes, hold the "B" button and press the directional pad.
Here in route 3, you'll find some trainers. Go through the Northern part of the route, and fight the trainers while you're building up your Pokemon levels. Continue on until you see a Pokemon Center. Here, heal your Pokemon for there is another cave ahead. There's a man selling a Magikarp for a "mere" 500 poke. A ripoff, considering Magikarp knows nothing but splash. Of course, if you have the time to train it until it evolves, the investment is worthwhile. In any case it's time to head for Mt Moon.




Mt. Moon & Clefairy

It's now time to enter Mt Moon. From the entrance, head up and turn right..
Continue going to the right until you come to a junction. Take the left path until you can't go anymore, and go down. You will see a ladder leading down here, but do not go down. Go pass the ladder, and continue to follow the path. You should see another ladder with a hiker circling around it. Now use this ladder to go down.

From here, follow the path until you see another ladder. You'll end up in a bigger chamber now. Head down the stairs that you see when you emerge from the ladder. There should be a team rocket there. Now, go up the stairs and continue along the path. There aren't any junctions and turns along the way, so just follow the path until you saw another member of team rocket. You're left with no choice but to defeat him this time. Defeat him and proceed on straight. There's a hidden moonstone on the dead-end on the right. Anyway, go straight and fight the super nerd guarding the two fossils.

After you've beaten the super nerd, you could have one of the two fossils. The Dome Fossil could be regenerated into Kabuto and the Helix Fossil could be turned into an Omanyte. To revive these two fossils, head to Cinnabar Island. After you've picked up one of the fossils, head left, down the stairs and down the ladder. Continue on, and soon you'll emerge in Route 4.

From here, it doesn't matter which way you go. However, you might want to head for your right. There are two blackbelts there which could teach your Pokemon Mega Punch and Mega Kick. In any case, head East until you arrive at the next town - Cerulean City




Cerulean City - Water Power

Heal your Pokemon, and head for the gym. If you've captured a Pikachu earlier, this battle would be perfect for it. The gym itself is pretty straight forward, there aren't any puzzles here. Fight the two junior trainers, and once you're done with them it's time to fight Misty.

Gym Leader Battle: Misty

Pokemon Used:
Staryu - level 18
Starmie - level 21

Two words: Water Pulse. That's pretty much sums up what you are going to face. The Water Pulse attack would be your biggest trouble against them. Staryu is relatively easy, but Starmie is a challenge even for Electric Pokemon if you haven't levelled up enough. Bulbasaur users shouldn't find much problem, although it's good luck to Charmander users if they didn't levelled up high enough. Take no chance and use your strongest attack everytime. After you win the battle, Misty will give you the Cascade Badge as well as TM 03 - Water Pulse.

Now you're done with the gym leader, it's time to head north to the Nugget Bridge. Here, you'll fight your rival once more.

Rival Battle # 3
Pidgeotto - level 17
Rattata - level 15
Abra - level 16
|| Bulbasaur/Charmander/Squirtle - level 18

Nothing too hard here. Pidgeotto could be a challenge, but Ratatta and Abra could be taken care of quite easily. As for your rival's starter, you should have no problem if you have a Pokemon with type advantage over them. If you managed to defeat him, you'll get the Voice Checker. It can be found in the key items section of your bag.

It's time for the Nugget Bridge challenge now. You'll fight 5 trainers here, (not consecutively). They should be taken care of quite easily, considering you have made it this far. At the end of the nugget bridge, you'll be awarded a nugget. Useless, but it could sell for P5000 in the Pokemart.
From the Nugget bridge. Head eastward. (to the right) There will be a kind of mini maze here with some trainers. You should have no problem getting past them. Move on until you see a house. It's Bill House. The path behind the house is gone in this game though, so no Bulbasaur Garden, Charmander Field, and Squirtle Lake).
Once you enter the house, you'll see a Clefairy. Talk to it, and it will tell you that he is actually a human (yeah right). In any case, head for the PC. You have no choice but to help him this time. Soon, a human pops up from the transporter machine - It's Bill!. As a reward for your help, he'll give you the S.S. Ticket. Time for the high seas now..

Head back to Cerulean City, go to the house at the North-Eastern corner of the city. Earlier, you might have notice that a policeman was blocking the way. Go inside the ransacked house, and go out through the back door. Here you will fight another Team Rocket member. If you managed to defeat him, you'll get Tm 28 - Dig.

Now, head south alongside the town to Route 5. Continue going south until you see a small building on the right. This is the underground pass to Vermillion City. Head down the underground pass, and you'll find yourself on Route 6. There not much to do in this route. There's some wild Pokemon and a few trainers. Catch and battle as you see fit. In any case head south until you arrive in a city.




Vermillion City - The Sea and the Surge

First things first, you'll notice that you can't go to the gym. You'll need to have taught your Pokemon the Cut HM. Now, head to the dock for the SS Anne. If you've gotten the SS Ticket from Bill earlier, you should be able to enter the ship. Once you enter the S.S. Anne, head left and take the stairs down. From here head down until you can't go any further and then head right. Soon, you'll meet your rival once more, and, of course, another battle will ensue.

Rival Battle # 4
Pidgeotto - level 19
Raticate - level 16
Kadabra - level 17
|| Ivysaur/Charmeleon/Wartortle - level 20

After the battle head straigh to the captain's dock. Here, you'll see the captain vomiting to a trash bin. Walk up to him and talk to him. He'll be grateful for you helping him and as a reward HM 01 is now yours. You might want to stick in the ship a little bit longer, since if you leave now, the ship will set sails. Once you're done, get off the ships and watch as the SS.Anne sails away.

Now that you've got the HM 01. You can cut away the tree blocking Vermillion gym. Head for the gym and defeat the junior trainers. The Gym Leaders room are blocked by two rays of lasers though. To get past to the room you need to press the switch that could be found in the trash bins filling the gym. The location are random, but the second switch is always next to the first switch. Bearing this in mind, it should be easier to solve the puzzle. Once you're done, head to the gym leader room and talk to Lt Surge.

Gym Leader Battle: Lt Surge Pokemon Used:
Voltorb - level 21
Pikachu - level 18
Raichu - level 24

Ground or Rock attacks work best here. Overall, the battle isn't really that hard. You'll be given the Thunderbadge and TM 24 - Thunderbolt once you defeat Lt Surge. Now with three badges in your hand its time to head for the next town. However, before you leave make sure you check out the Pokemon Fan Club HQ at the Western part of the city. Talk to its president, and you'll be given a Bike Coupon that you can exchange for a bike in Cerulean Bike Shop.




Rock Tunnel and Onwards

Now, it's time to head for the Rock Tunnel. Before that though, head east from Vermillion City to Route 11. You'll see a cave here - Diglett Cave, full of Diglet and Dugtrio. Go through the tunnel, and you'll end up in Route 2 again. Head South and enter a building. You'll see another Professor's aide there. Talk to him, and if you've captured 10 or more Pokemon he'll give you HM 05 - Flash.

Now that you've gotten Flash, make your way back to Cerulean City. Exchange the bike coupon for a bike if you want. Then head East to Route 9, and keep going east, fighting the trainers along the way until you see a Pokemon Center. Heal your Pokemon, and make sure that you teach Flash to one of your Pokemon. In this Pokemon Center, you will see another Professor Aide. If you have more than 20 POkemon, he'll give you an Everstone which is a hold item to prevent your Pokemon from evolving Now it's time to head for Rock Tunnel..



Rock Tunnel
Follow these steps to get thru it:

First Floor Head South passing through the scientist, and follow the path, go down the ladder.
Basement 1
Head down and turn left. Now, keep on walking and turn at the first junction you see. Follow the path and you should see a ladder. Climb the ladder
First Floor (part II)
Here, just go down and around the room. You should be able to see the ladder you should climb down.
Basement 1 (part II)
Keep on heading east until you can go no further. Now head North passing through another scientist. Climb the ladder up.
First Floor (Part III)
Head down, and go east, you should be able to find the exit of the cave.
Just continue on along the route, and soon you'll arrive at Lavender Town.




Lavender Town and Team Rocket


Lavender Town is the home to the Pokemon Tower, a Pokemon cemetery. If you try to enter the tower at this moment, you will only meet ghosts there. We need an item to identify them before you can proceed through.

Exit the town through the Western exit to Route 8. Continue going west (left) until you see one of those guard houses. Like those in Vermillion and Cerulean, the guards won't allow you to pass through. So head North and enter the underground passage. Once you emerge from the underground pass, you'll be in Route 7. Celadon City is just a short distance away..

Once you're in Celadon City, heal your pokemon. Head to the center of the town and enter the game corner. Here, talk to the Team Rocket members standing by the poster. He will fight you. Defeat him, and proceed to press a hidden switch in the poster, a staircase on your right will open. Enter..



Game Corner Basement

Head for Basement 3 now. Go left and you'll see a mini puzzle. Make your way to the end of the puzzle, and take the stairs down to Basement four. Here, go to the north-western part of the room. You'll see a team rocket member here. Defeat him and he'll give you the lift key. Now that you have the lift key, head back to Basement 2. There's another puzzle similar to the puzzle that you encountered in basement 3. Make your way to the end of the puzzle, and now that you have the lift key, you can take the lift to basement 4. Once you step out in basement 4, you'll see two rocket guards standing by a locked door. Defeat them to open the door. Head straight to face Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket. Once you've beaten Giovanni, you'll get the Silph Scope.

Now that you've gotten the Silph Scope, it's time to head back to Lavender Town and rescue Mr.Fuji. Head back to the underground pass and back to Lavender. Once you're in Lavender Town, heal your Pokemon and make your way to the tower.

Pokemon Tower

First Floor
Nothing here, just a few people and the counter. Head for the stairs to level 2

Second Floor
Once you try to continue, someone will come and interrupt you. It's none other than your rival. Prepare your Pokemon for another rival battle.

There will be three rocket grunts along the way. Defeat them and talk to Mr. Fuji. You'll be transported to his house in Lavender Town after the conversation. For your rewards in rescuing him, you'll be given a PokeFlute. Put that PokeFlute aside for a while now. It's time to head for Celadon City for the Fourth Badge.




Celadon City - Plants, Flowers, and Grass

As mentioned previously, head for Celadon City. You can go for the gym now, but there are more things to do at the moment. First of all, Celadon City is the home of the biggest PokeMart in Kanto region. You can buy many items that are not on sale elsewhere. There are the elemental stones that you'll need to evolve some Pokemon. In addition to that, the game corner also provides some elusive prizes, items and Pokemon alike. The game corner is the only way to get Porygon.

The Celadon Mansion is another interesting building. Talk to the woman on first floor to get a key items that will let you to go past the guard at Saffron City. If you tried to enter the mansion from the back door and climb up to the rooftop, you'll be able to get an Eevee. There are also two Move Tutors in Celadon City. One could be found on the third floor of the PokeMart. You can get him to teach your Pokemon Counter. The other move tutor can be found in the house in front of the Game Corner. Talk to him and he'll teach your Pokemon Softboiled.

After you've done all the necessary things, it's time to head for the gym. Head to the south of the city. There will be a small tree that could be cut. Use Cut, and make your way to the gym.

The gym itself contains a lot of junior trainers. You might want to battle them for some experience. Remember to stock up on the Antidotes and Paralyze heal's though, or you'll be making continous trip back to Pokemon Center. Erika the gym leader could be found in the middle of the gym. Once you're done with all the preparations, talk to her..

Gym Leader Battle: Erika Pokemon Used:
Victreebell - level 24
Tangela - level 24
Vileplume - level 29

Burn them if you have any fire Pokemon with you. If you've captured a Growlithe earlier, take advantage of its ember attack. Alternatively you can use psychic Pokemon for both Victreebell and Vileplume, since they are also Poison Pokemon. Once you've beaten Erika, she'll give you the fourth badge and a TM. With four badges in your hand, it's time to head for Fuschia City for fifth badge. Before you leave the city, you might want to visit the house in Route 16 (acessible by Cut) to get HM 02 - Fly. Fly will allow you to fly to all Pokemon Centers that you've visited.




Onwards to Fuschia

From Celadon, there are two ways to go to Fuschia City. The first way is going by the Cycling Road. You need a bicycle for this. The other and the harder way, is to go south of Lavender Town and travel through the coast to Fuschia City.

If you choose to travel by the cycling road, read here:

From Celadon City, head west to route 16. Here you will notice a sleeping Pokemon. Remember the Poke Flute from Mr Fuji earlier. Now with Poke Flute, you can awaken this sleeping Pokemon. Approach the sleeping Pokemon and use the Poke Flute you'll be taken to a battle with level 30 Snorlax. You need to either defeat/capture it to proceed with the game. I would recommend capturing it, since there are only two Snorlax in the game. After you defeat the Snorlax enter the house. If you've no bicycle, the guard will not allow you to pass. In any case, exit the house and you'll end up in cycling road. It's a breeze from here to Fuschia City. The road goes downhill, and just keep riding southwards, and soon you'll end up in Fuschia City.

If you choose the hard way:

Coming soon...




Fuschia City and Safari Zone

Welcome to Fuschia City, home to Safari Zone. For more details about the Safari Zone, check out the miscellaneous section of this walkthrough. In any case, head for the gym at the southern part of the town. The gym is a tricky one. There's an invisible wall all around the gym. You'll need to configure your way through these invisible walls. Try to go around the room from the right. The trainers could serve as a markers. In any case you should reach Koga soon.

Gym Leader Battle: Koga
Pokemon Used:
Koffing - lvl 37
Muk lvl 39
Koffing - lvl 37
Weezing - lvl 43

This culd prove to be a tricky battle. Psychic Pokemon is your best bet against Koga. Ground attack will not work against Koffing and Weezing due to their abilities - Levitate, which made them immune to ground attacks. Also, watch out for their self-destruct which could hurt you if you only rely on one single Pokemon. To be safe, get some revives and antidotes for this battle. One or two good Psychic Pokemon will be enough to win you the badge. Once you defeated Koga, he'll give you the Soul Badge as well as the most effective poisoning move in the form of HM 06 - Toxic

After you've beaten Koga, you can now use Surf outside battle. Now its time to find the HM.. Now, head for the Safari Zone. Look out for the surfer's house (it's deep inside the safari zone). While you're at the safari zone, also remember to pick up a Gold Teeth. Once you've found the surfer house, enter, talk to him and HM 03 - Surf will be yours.
Now that you've gotten surf, it's time to get another HM. Now head for the warden house at the Eastern part of the city. Remember the Gold Teeth you picked earlier? If you give it to him, he'll give you HM 04 - Strength in exchange. Now you have HM04 - Strength, you can move boulders. Also, in the warden house there is a pokeball which is inacessible earlier because of the boulder. Move the boulder using strength, and get the pokeball for a Rare Candy. Make sure you check out the house beside the waden's. Here, talk to the fisherman for a Good Rod which will enable you to capture better water Pokemon.

Now, the game could be pretty much non-linear. With surf, you can go for Cinnabar Island or you can go to Saffron City. In order to keep things simple, we'll go to Saffron first.




Safron City and Silph Co.

If you haven't get the key items from the woman in Celadon Mansion earlier, it's time to get it. Once you've gotten the items, head to the one of the Saffron gates. Here, the guards will ask you whether you will give him a drink (the key items). Afterwards, he will let you pass. You've arrived at Saffron City, the biggest city in the game. If you go North, you'll notice that there are two gyms here. However only the psychic gym will give you the badge. At the moment, there are Team Rocket member blocking the way to the psychic gym. Now you have the choice whether you want to go to Fighting Dojo or head straight to Silph Co.

If you choose to go to the Fighting Dojo, bring some Psychic and Flying Pokemon around. Here, there are 4 junior trainers. You will fight two of the trainers each time consecutively. Once you're done with the trainers, talk to the leader and a batlle will start.

Fighting Dojo Leader
Pokemon Used:
Hitmonlee - lvl 30
Hitmonchan - lvl 30

With Psychic/Flying Pokemon of sufficient level, this battle isn't hard at all. If you're using flying Pokemon, beware of Hitmonchan's ThunderPunch. For beating the leader, you'll be given a reward. A choice of either a Hitmonlee or a Hitmonchan of your own.

Now, it's time to take care of Team Rocket. Head for the Silph Co. Building now, the biggest building in the city. This building is full of Team Rocket's. Your ojective is to rescue the company's President. There are 11 floors in this building, but you can't go directly to the 11th floor. First of all, you need to get the Card Key in order to open some of the doors. To get the Card Key, head to the 5th floor using the lift.From here, go left and down all the way until you see a warp spot. Defeatthe scientis, and go past the warp, but not using it. Head to your rightand you should find an item containing a card key.

Now that you've gotten the card key, you'll be able to open up the door. Just walk around the building for some cool items (Carbos, Protein, Calcium, etc). If you want to save time, you might want to check out floor 8 where you can heal your Pokemon by sleeping on a bed. Now it's time to continue. Head for the third floor.
Here, go down, and open the door using your card key. On the first room, go to the warp tile and use it. You'll end up in the 7th floor, where you can see a Silph Co. employee together with the rival. If you haven't fully healed your Pokemon yet, go back to the 8th floor and heal them. Once you've done this, it's time to face your rival.

Once you defeat him, open the door and get ready to face Giovanni once more.

Team Rocket Battle: Giovanni
Pokemon Used:
Nidorino - lvl 37
Rhyhorn - lvl 37
Kangaskhan - lvl 37
Nidoqueen - lvl 41

Bring some Fighting and Psychic Pokemon to this battle. Psychic will come in handy against Nidorino and Nidoqueen. A good fighting Pokemon should be able to dismantle Rhyhorn and Kangaskhan easily. Now that you've beaten Giovanni, talk to the President of Silph Co. As a reward for saving Silph Co, he'll give you a Master Ball. The Master Ball will allow you to capture any Pokemon. It will definitely come handy against the legendary Pokemon.

With Team Rocket taken care of, it's time to get back to track for becoming a Pokemon Master. It's time for the 6th badge. Head back to the Psychic Gym, you'll notice that you can go in now.

Here, you need to use the warp spot to reach Sabrina the gym leader. Here is the way to do it. From the entrance, there is only one warp point, so go there and use it. You'll end up in the South-Eastern warp of a room. Now head left to the South-Western warp of the room. Now you'll find yourself in a North-Eastern warp. Head to the South- Western corner of the room again, and use the warp to transport yourself to a south-eastern warp in another warp. Head up to take the North-Eastern warp point. Here, you'll find yourself in the north -eastern warp point in another room. Head to the South-West corner of the room and use the warp point. Now you should be transported to the gym leader's room.

Gym Leader Battle: Sabrina
Pokemon Used:
Kadabra lvl 38
Mr Mime lvl 37
Venomoth lvl 38
Alakazam lvl 43

To old players, do you remember this gym in the original games. Psychic Pokemon used to be the powerhouse in the original game. This Gym was no exception. Battle against Sabrina was one of the thoughest gym leader battle in the riginal R/B/Y. Not anymore. With the split in Special categories, and some dark moves available in the game, beating Sabrina should be easier now. Once you defeat Sabrina, you'll get the Marsh Badge and TM 04 - Calm Mind.
It's time to head for Cinnabar now. (Continued... )

[Venusaur1]

Part 2 of the walkthrough
----------------------------
Cinnabar - The Fiery Island

Now, fly back to Pallet town. From here, head south of the town, and use surf on the sea. From here, things are quite straight forward. you only need to surf southwards, until you see an island.

This island is quite a small There's the gym, the Pokemart, the Pokemon center, Cinnabar Mansion, a research center. You can go to the research center to revive the fossils that you've got earlier on Mt Moon. If you go to the gym, you'll notice that the door is locked. It looks like we need the gym key here, so head to Cinnabar mansion on the North-western part of the island.

Once you enter, head straight along the red carpet until you see a stairs up. Go up and you'll be in level 2 now. From here, if you choose to go up there will be trainer upstairs as well as some interesting note about Mew. Anyway, from level 2, Press the switch in the statue, so its eyes doesn't glow now. Head to the North- western corner of the room, and take the stairs to level three. Here, press the switch on the statue again. Go down, and you supposed to see a scientist there. In any case, go through him and drop down though the largest column. You'll find yourself in another section of the first floor.
Beat the trainer, and continue walking along the room until you see a stairs down. Take the stairs, and you'll end up in the basement of Cinnabar Mansion. From here, go to the room on your left. There will be another switch here. Turned it on and head back to the stairs. From the stairs, head North to the now unlocked room. From here, head north until you see another statue. Turn the switch on and head to your left. You should see a room with some plants and an item on the center. Take the item, and you'll find that it's the gym key. It's time to go out of the mansion and head for the gym now.

This is an interesting gym. There are a lot of junior trainers here, but you don't need to fight all of them. For once, you'll need to use your Pokemon knowledge. Walk up to the machine located in the corner of the room. It will ask you a Pokemon related question. If you get it right, the door to the next room will open. Get it wrong, and the trainer will fight you. Repeat this step until you get to the gym leader.

Gym Leader Battle: Blaine
Pokemon Used:
Growlithe lvl 42
Ponyta lvl40
Rapidash lvl 42
Arcanine lvl 47

There's nothing hard here. A decent water Pokemon should be able to take down Blaine easily. Defeat Blaine, and you'll get your 7th badge. Now, there's only 1 more badge to go. Remember the locked gym in Viridian City? It's now time to head back to Viridian..




Viridian Revisited

Go back to Viridian City, Once you reached Viridian, head for the gym. The puzzles in the gym would be familiar, since you've encountered them before in Celadon's Game corner basement. No prize for guessing who's the gym leader. In any case the puzzle isn't really that hard to figure out. Once you've seen the gym leader, talk to him.

Gym Leader Battle: Giovanni
Pokemon Used:
Rhyhorn lvl 44
Dugtrio lvl 42
Nidoqueen lvl 44
Nidoking lvl 45
Rhydon lvl 50

Water Pokemon is your best friend for this fight. You should have no problem beating them. If you have a water Pokemon, use a combination of Rain Dance and Surf/Hydro Pump. Once you've defeated Giovanni, he'll give you the Earth Badge. With 8 badges, you can now go to the Pokemon Leauge. Head West from Viridian, towards the Pokemon Leauge Building.




Path to Victory

Pidgeot - lvl 47
Rhyhorn - lvl 45
Kadabra - lvl 47
Growlithe - lvl 45
Gyarados - lvl 45
Venusaur lvl 53

Quite possibly the hardest battle so far. Use Electric Pokemon as usual on Pidgeot. Water Pokemon on Rhyhorn. If you have dark Pokemon use them on Alakazam. Growlithe/Exeggcute are pretty much easier compared to the others. Once you've defeated him, head West, enter the building. Here, just go North passing through all the guards who ask you for the badges. Keep doing so until you see an entrance for Victory Road.

Victory Road

Once you enter Victory Road, you'll see a boulder. Using a Pokemon with Strength HM, push the boulder all the way to the switch on the right. Now, head for the stairs and walk on until you see two stairs. There will be a trainer along the way. The right stairs down lead to a Rare Candy and TM 02. Head for the left stairs to continue. Walk on until you see a ladder leading up. Fight the trainer beside it if you want.

Climb up the ladder. Here you'll see boulders again. Go to the boulders at your south and push it towards the switch. Now, head for the stairs. Go East all the way, fighting the blackbelt. Here, if you choose to go down the stairs, you'll see a Pokeball containing TM 37. You also see a switch here. In any case, go East all the way until you see a ladder up.

Here, you'll see a boulder on top of you. Go to the boulders, and push it North until it's one square away from the wall. From here, push the boulder all the way to the West until you can't go further. You should be able to see a switch by now. Drag the boulder to the switch. You may want to take an item containing TM 50 - Overheat. Now, go back to the ladder in this floor where you come from earlier. From here, head up the stairs, and continue going West until you see another stairs down. You should see two trainers side by side here. Go through past them, and head East. Here, push the boulder down the hole. Jump down the hole, and push the boulder all the way to the switch on the left. From here, head up the ladder near the tamer. Here, there will be a 2 on 2 battle. In any case, head for the other ladder and climb down. From here, just head East for the exit. You'll find yourself out of Victory Road now. From here, just head North for the Pokemon League...




The Elite Four

Enter the building. Here, there are Pokemon Center as well as Pokemart. Heal your Pokemon, and stock up one healing items such as revive and max potions. Try to level up your Pokemon to level 50+, as it will help you for the battle. Once you're ready, it's time to face the ELite Four.

Recommended Pokemon Types:
Water
Ice
Fire
Electric
Flying

Elite Four: Lorelei
Pokemon Used:
Dewgong - lvl 52
Cloyster - vl 51
Slowbro - lvl 52
Jynx - lvl 54
Lapras - lvl 54

Electric Pokemon is your best friend for this battle. Fire wouldn't be as effective here, considering that 4 out of those Pokemon are part water. Use an electric Pokemon for Dewgong, Cloyster, Slowbro and Lapras. Unleash your fire Pokemon against Jynx.

Elite Four: Bruno

Pokemon Used:
Onix - lvl 51
Hitmonchan - lvl 53
Hitmonlee - lvl 53
Onix - lvl 54
Machamp - lvl 56

A Hydro Pump for both of the Onix should take care of them easily. As for the rest of the Pokemon, a Flying Pokemon would be the perfect choice for Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee and Machamp. Just be careful with Hitmonchan thunder punch though.
Elite Four: Agatha

Pokemon Used:
Gengar - lvl 54
Golbat - lvl 54
Haunter - lvl 53
Arbok - lvl 56
Gengar - lvl 58

In the past, ground Pokemon works well here, considering Gengar and Haunter are part-poison. However, with their ability - Levitate, ground moves are as good as useless here. Get a psychic Pokemon instead. While Ghost moves are strong aginst Psychic, the double weakness of Gengar and Haunter make up for it.

Elite Four: Lance

Pokemon Used:
Gyarados - lvl 56
Dragonair - lvl 54
Dragonair - lvl 54
Aerodactyl - lvl 58
Dragonite - lvl 60

One of the harder battle. Gyarados could be taken care of easily with Electric Pokemon. Unless you have an Ice Pokemon, prepare for a hard battle with the Dragons. You might want to teach Ice Beam to your Pokemon.

Champion: Blue

If Bulbasaur is your starter: Pokemon he will use:
Pidgeot
Alakazam
Rhydon
Exeggcutor
Gyarados
Charizard

If Charmander is your starter:
Pokemon he will use:
Pidgeot
Alakazam
Rhydon
Arcanine
Exeggcutor
Blastoise

If Squirtle's your starter:
Pokemon he will use:
Pidgeot
Alakazam
Rhydon
Arcanine
Gyarados
Venusaur

You last battle, and the last obstacle to become a Pokemon champion. There's nothing really hard about this battle if you level up enough. With Water, Electric and Fire Pokemon in your team, you should be able to win this battle. Once you defeated Blue, Professor Oak will appear. After a short dialogue, he'll take you to the Hall of Fame. Here, you will see the ending, as well as the credits roll on the screen...

Now, wait until the credits are over, and try to continue your game. You'll be back at Pallet Town. You might have beaten the Elite Four, but there are stil a lot of things you can do.




Walkthrough - The Mystery Islands
Pokemon Fire/Leaf has brought us a new region to explore, the mystery islands archipelago. In these mystery islands, there are a few sidequests, as well as the appearance of Johto Pokemon. The first three mystery islands are accessible right after you've beaten the Cinnabar gym. The rest will be available after you've beaten the elite four and obtain the Rainbow Ticket.

It's easy to go to the Mystery Islands. Right after you beat Blaine at Cinnabar gym, the mystery islands are accessible. Get out of the gym after you beat Blaine, and Bill will be there. He'll ask you whether you would like to come along with him. Say yes, and a ferry will take you away. You'll end up in a dock in Mystery Island 1.

Bill will give you a few items, including teh ticket that will allow you to return to Island 1, Island 2, Island 3 anytime you want, as well as a new town map. In addition to that, Bill also ask your help to find the required materials to fix the machine.

Here, surf Northeast, you'll land on a grassy area. Not much to do here, except battling some trainers. Make your way North, and you'll end up in a hot spring. You can take a dip to heal your Pokemon here. Talk to the man by the waterfalls, to get HM 06.

After you've done so, head to the beach on the eastern part of the island. From here, surf North until you see a hill up north. Here, you could capture Moltres at the top of the mountain.



After you've entered the mountain, head left. Push the two boulders away, head North and climb the stairs to the next level. Here, destroy the rocks using rock smash.

Second Chamber
Just follow the path and climb the stairs, and you'll be in the next one.
Third Chamber
Same as the first and second. This time, you'll find yourself out in the open.
Now, go left and go up the stairs. There's a little puzzle involving boulders and rocks on your right, but it's not that important. Solve the items and grab the puzzle if you want,and make your way up through the stairs. Here you'll find another boulder puzzle, which shouldn't be that hard to figure out. Talk to Moltres and you'll be taken to a battle.

Wild Pokemon Battle:
Pokemon Encountered:
Moltres

Just like any other legendaries, Moltres is a tough nut to crack. Try to put it to sleep or paralyze, and remember the golden rule of saving your game before the battle.
In addition to that, after you've beaten the Elite Four another cave will opens up. Go back to the entrance of the Moltres mountain. Here, you'll see two team rocket members at your right. Walk up and fight them. After you defeat them, a cave should appear. Here, you'll be able to capture Slugma. Deep down the cave, there are also Braille's puzzles. This is a clue regarding Ruby and Sapphire - the two gems needed to fixed the machine. From here, climb the ladder and you'll be taken to a chamber where you can get Ruby. Give this Ruby to Scientist in Island 1 for the Rainbow Ticket that allow you to go to Island 4-7.

Island 2

There's nothing much here compared to the first island. However, you'll be able to get HM 06 from this island. To do this, you'll need to rescue a little girl in island 3 first. Check out Island 3 section for more details. Before that you might want to check out the mart.

Enter the games house on the eastern part of the island. Here, a man will tell you that his daughter is currently on island 3. Halfway through the coversation, a biker will come between you two.

You can find some grass on this island, and this door, If you enter here you will get the Sapphire plate, but then A ROCKET steals it and will take it back to the base on Island 5

Mystery Island 7


This The entrance of Island 7

This Island Has many Mountains, Grass, and Items

This is the Puzzle you need to make to....

... Enter this Ruin and catch...

..UNOWN...

Mystery Island 8


This is the entrance of the 8th island, this is the island where you can get Lugia and Ho-oh

When you have entered the cave just follow this way

Then we you on the part you can see above, you have to choose a way, one is for ho-oh and the other way is for lugia, you can catch both!

This is the place where ho-oh appears

and here you will find Lugia

"Tri" Island

Nothing here but a puzzle. you have to move the triangle around until it turns red. Do this quickly or the puzzle will reset.

This is easily done just keep touching the side closest to you.

When yo ucomplete it the islandwill shake and turn red and Deoxys will appear

[Venusaur1]

At this point, Island 8 can only be accessed by VBA code 02031CF0:7B01.
Once it is entered, enter a bulding to wind up on Island 8. Turn it off so
you can continue. Once inside, you will go though a long hall with several
turns and dead ends, until you reach two paths. The right path leads to
a flight of ladders down to a Level 70 Lugia (With Aeroblast), and the
left leads to Ho-Oh (With Sacred Fire, but no Sacred Ash). No wild Pokemon
besides those two can be found.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Island 9
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
At this point, Island 8 can only be accessed by VBA code 02031CF0:3a02.
Once it is entered, enter a bulding to wind up on Island 9. Turn it off so
you can continue. The island itself only contains a Single Triangle
Puzzle. To beat it, you must walk up to the front and press A. Once you do
that, it will move down, and you must reach it in the least ammount of
steps possible. Once you complete, it will break, and a Level 30 Deoxys
will appear.

[Jo Mamma]

Nice walkthrough in all Venasuar but is this game out yet? Or do you know its expected release date?

[Sgt. Antronch]

Does anyone have gameshark/AR/codebreaker codes for all badges?

[Absol]

that would just be stupid and actually mess up your game... certain things happen when you receive the badge... if you already had it, those things wouldnt happen and you would be stuck...

[Sgt. Antronch]

It's the same way with the majority of the gameshark/cheat device codes, now GIMME!! heh Just kidding, ;) but I need that code in paticular to test something.

[Absol]

no idea...

:mad: And once again, Nintendo dropped the ball... Maybe this time there will be an easier way to get to the islands. I thought nintendo would at least make the 8th island accessible to all. The tri island access being locked was kind of inevitable and obvious.

[King Politoed]

i must get leaf green!!

:mad: And once again, Nintendo dropped the ball... Maybe this time there will be an easier way to get to the islands. I thought nintendo would at least make the 8th island accessible to all. The tri island access being locked was kind of inevitable and obvious.

They might do another "Eon Ticket" thing here...

[DragonSol]

I truly hope there is nothing like the Eon ticket again. I was in an "un-accesible" place and could not get the ticket. Everything should be accesible and not any promotions or anything.

[RareHunterX]

God we better hope they don't ..that island 8 is'nt worth hve a ticket like that fo..since it only has lugia and Ho-oh..and form what i hve read at seribe.net...the locations off 2 tickets are unknown...whatevrv that means

[Michuru81]

I hope it becomes blue. :( I got blue SP to match my sapphire cart. It wouldn't look right bein' all blue with a green cart in there.

Okay, enough pouting. I have a serious question... does anyone know if FR/LG will support secret bases? That's my primary way of training and without them... ugh.

[RareHunterX]

...i think it might....but then agian..i'm not sure....i'll be playin the game all next week..so icanupdate any info if uneed it

[Venusaur1]

Nice walkthrough in all Venasuar but is this game out yet? Or do you know its expected release date?

few months at most maybe early summer my guess is may

[Venusaur1]

What Has CHANGED from r/b/y- FR/LG.....
_____________________________________
Extremely accurate. All the trainers from the previous games have
returned, and have close to accurate teams from the first one. Although
quite a bit has changed (New movesets, TM's, etc) the levels and type
of Pokemon remain unchanged. Even the locations are exact.

Completely remade in terms of graphics, and it goes farther beyond R/S.
However, the actual layout is pretty much the same. Besides a few minor
renevations for the better, everything is 98% accurate to the first
game.

Here is a list (Athough it may be uncomplete) of the changes:
-----------------------------------------------------------

-At the beginning, when you give oak the Pokedex, he also gives
you 5 Pokeballs.
-Many of the Pokemon's location's have changed.
-Prof. Oak's assistant gives you the Running Shoes when trying to
leave Pewter City, to route 3.
-More Trainers in the routes and areas.
-Same TM set from R/S (Besides HM 07)
-With the new change, there are now move teachers that will teach
your Pokemon certain moves that used to me TM's (And some new ones)
-The guards at the gates of the Safron enterance no longer require
a drink from the machine in Celadon, but a new Pass that a old
lady gives you in the place the Gamefreak designers are in (The
biggest building in Celadon besides the Dept. Store), on the
first floor.
-Items are now sorted by type, like all the other games above the
first 3.
-Pokemon now can Hold items, and have Special Abilities, Like in
R/S.
-Once you complete the Cinibar Gym, you will be taken to the
3 new islands of this game (Not in any relation with the Orange
Islands in the Anime).
-A few new item additions, including a Tutoral, TM case, and so
on.
-Two on Two battles
-Ability to use the Wireless adapter to communicate and battle/trade
with others
-Ability to Trade between Colosseum and R/S.
-Moltres is now located on the first island, instead of Victory
road.
-9 New islands to explore, maybe more.

NOT IN THE GAME (UNCONFIRMED)
-Time feature (Unknown how this effects Eevee and Umbreon and Espeon)
-Pokemon Contest
-The mytical land of Johto that was rumored to be in at one point
Dive HM (Although it is programmed in the game...)

VOICE CHECKER
-------------------------------
This device is used to store some small parts of conversations. You need to go to the pkmn center, pkmn marts, or random houses with a book shelf and click the books. All this is on http://www.serebii.net/red_green/voice-checker.shtml. Theres a bunch of pictures and locations about this new feature

[RareHunterX]

hve u mentioned the trrianer help TV channel?

[Venusaur1]

be my guest hunter

[NarutoKun128]

The first page will be constantly be updated without notcie, so look out for that. Also, anyone who needs to know anything or want to find something, go check the first page.

Venusaur1, if you're still looking for new sprites, check the first page.

[Venusaur1]

Ok thanks. And thanks for saying that its getting updated because i never look back there i just keep posting new info i find on the games

[Venusaur1]

On Island2 Near the game house there is the Move Re-Learner. For 2 tiny/1 big mushroom easily obtained from a wild paras/parasect he will reteach or teach a pokemon a move that you caught and he missed the attack because it got deleted.

[wobmaster]

So theyve finnaly found a use for the tinymushrooms... thats good, they were dumb, not doing anything...

[Venusaur1]

yeah they were for selling which is kind of pointless

Pokemon Badges In The Credits

http://pokemon-world.com/cutenews/data/upimages/badgecredits.PNG

http://pokemon-world.com/cutenews/data/upimages/bl_pikachu.PNG

badges that were shown in the Leaf Green/Fire Red Credits at the end i think they symbolise the past Versions in Pokemon Kanto Yellow Version,Red and Blue and Green Version

[Venusaur1]

I am going to revive this topic because of all the confusion about the release of this game ect. ect. This contains almostall the up-to-date info on FR/LG

[RareHunterX]

the trainer help tv channel basically show's u how to capture pokemon and stuff...well that was uselesss. but thats all i can make out...unless i learn japaneese...which i'm not going to do

[NarutoKun128]

Anyone remember that Metallic Orange GBA SP with an emblem of Torchic? Well, Nintendo's done it agian, with yet TWO more colors.

Fire Red: http://pocketmedia.ign.com/pocket/image/firered_012904_big.jpg

Leaf Green: http://pocketmedia.ign.com/pocket/image/leafgreen_012904_big.jpg

P.S. I was thinking that this topic should be stickied since there's no FR/LG forum and some people may not know about this.

[King Politoed]

that LF one looks really good *shivvers* :D :D

[Betelgeux]

Wow, they look pretty cool with those Pokémon line designs. I'd buy the Leaf Green one.

[krang]

Fire Red and Leaf Green have been released in Japan yesterday. No date for English release as of yet. All TM's and HM's are the same as Ruby/Sapphire.

Also, some things known within the game:
-Running Shoes are obtain after you defeat Brock
-Opposite Trainer not chosen at start of game has no where to be seen in the game...
-Team Rocket is, of course, in this game.
-Fishing Rod requirements are back to it's regular ol' self (no pressing buttons after buttons for a bite! All you need to do is just wait to see if you get a bite or not)
-The man in Vermilion City is still there with his Machop (He's an old guy now)
-Bike shop is still in Cerulean City selling there bikes for expensive money
-Bill gives you the ticket for the S.S. Anna
-Snorlax is blocking the road to the route south of Lavender, west of Vermilion
-Flash lightens up the whole screen (unlike Ruby/Sapphire, where it is almost completely whole
-Your first double battle is east of Lavender Town
-Don’t forget to pick up Eevee!!!! (Level 25!)
-Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan? Your decision (no Hitmontop, unfortunately) (Lv.25)
-Mother Marowak’s waiting for you…
-Second double battle south of Lavender Town
-Snorlax lies where it was before (two of the Snorlax, that is)
-Safari Zone is back at Fuchsia

I think I saw the english version on ebay.

[King Politoed]

so it is just basically the same as r/b but with better features and graphics

[NarutoKun128]

Not necessarily. Fire Red and Leaf Green are filled with even more adventures and training then ever. All known features and other stuff are on the first page for more information.

[Venusaur1]

r/b with 9 islands basically. a few other minor additions are also made

[wobmaster]

there are a lot of extra features added onto FR/LG. just go to serebii.net to check it out.

[Betelgeux]

I think I saw the english version on ebay.

Is the English version even available yet?

[Shining Celebi]

No.

It's a bootleg.

[King Politoed]

no, theres not even a release date yet

[RareHunterX]

another featue whihc my or may not he been mentioned is when u go up to read signs they come automatically instead of u hving to press a to read them

[kaizer63]

I just felt like adding for all of those who pre-ordered colloseum CELEBI IS CATCHABLE. Once you beat the RPG mode you can get all of the pokemon you didn't catch and use the bonus disk that came with the pre-order to download Celebi. At least this is how the japanese version of the game worked.(this means you can get celebi in fr/lg

[Venusaur1]

Dang its coming out in September (Official). All the may and june guesses were way WRONG lol. Does anyone know how you can get a metal powder in FR/LG? And are things like charcoal mystic water ect. in FR/LG?If so has anyone found a location list?

[LigerZeroZager]

Venusaur you should check out Serebii.net for all your fire red/leaf green info needs.

[Kuiper]

Um, I'm not sure, but I think you get Charcoal, Mystic Water, and Miracle Seed at the game corner.

[RareHunterX]

cooooool...comin september i cna't wait....thats laods of reason for me to enjoy september if i pass my exams

[NarutoKun128]

Added Transformation Cave and Release Date to first post.

EDIT: added English pics.
