Hint: Get all starters: To get all the starters (Bulbasaur,Charmander, and
Squirtle), you will need two Game Boy Advances and another Pokemon
GBA game. Start with Bulbasaur, then trade it to your other Pokemon
game. After that, start a new game. Start with Charmander and
trade it. Then, start another new game and start with Squirtle.
Keep Squirtle and catch two Pokemon that you do not want. Trade
them for the other two starters you traded to your other Pokemon
game. You will now have all three starters.
Information in this section was contributed by Darkchaos526.
Choose Bulbasaur Trade it to a friend. Start a new game, then
choose Squirtle. Trade it to the same friend. Start a new game
and choose Charmander. Trade it to the same friend. Catch four
Rattata and one Pidgey. Trade three Rattata for Bulbasaur, Squirtle,
and Charmander with the same friend. You now have five Pokemon
(Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Charmander, Rattata, and Pidgey).

Use the following trick to get the three starters without trading.
It requires Pokemon Box on the Gamecube. First, receive
your first starting Pokemon in Pallet Town. Then, defeat your
rival and go to Viridian City. Get the Oak Parcel then go back
to Pallet Town for the Pokedex. Catch a Pokemon of your choice,
then return to Viridian City. Turn off the game and transfer your
starter Pokemon to Pokemon Box. Make a new game and do
the same trick with other Pokemon. When two of the Prof. Pokemon
are in the Pokemon Box, return it when you get your first
Pokemon. You will then have the three starting Pokemon without
trading.

Catch a Ditto and go to Four Island. Give your Ditto and starter
Pokemon to the Daycare woman. Walk around the Sevii Islands to
pass the time. Even though the old man says "The two don't
seem to like each other", it will still work and make a Pokemon
egg. This does not work with the Legendary Pokemon T o get the
other starter Pokemon, trade your Pokemon with a friend for his
egg that was obtained by following the same procedure.
Information in this section was contributed by Vonglex.
Hint: Starting Pokemon recommendations:
Squirtle is Water type, and has an advantage over Charmander
the Fire type starter, who has an advantage over Bulbasaur the
Grass type starter. Note: Your rival will always choose the Pokemon
with a elemental advantage over yours.
Information in this section was contributed by BoomerangBen.
When you start the game and get to the point where you can choose
any of the three Pokemon, your rival will choose the Pokemon that
has the advantage over yours.
If you choose Bulbasaur, your rival chooses Charmander.
If you Choose Charmander, your rival chooses Squirtle.
If you Choose Squirtle, your rival chooses Bulbasaur.
However, if you have two Game Boy Advances, choose one, then battle
your rival. Then start on the other game and choose the Pokemon
that is your rival Pokemon's weakness:
If your rival has Bulbasaur, then choose Charmander
If your rival has Charmander, then choose Squirtle
If your rival has Squirtle, then choose Bulbasaur
However, it is a very good idea to have one Leaf Green
version and one Fire Red version to catch all the Pokemon
in the game, as you cannot capture the other six other Pokemon
using just one game, depending on your starter.
If you started with Bulbasaur, you cannot catch Charmander, Charmeleon,
Charizard, Squirtle, Wartortle, or Blastoise.
If you started with Charmander, you cannot catch Bulbasaur, Ivysaur,
Vensaur, Squirtle, Wartortle, or Blastoise.
If you started with Squirtle, you cannot catch Bulbasaur, Ivysaur,
Vensaur, Charmander, Charmelon, or Charizard.
The three starting Pokemon are like three different difficulties.
Bulbasaur is like easy because the first two gyms are weak against
Grass. Squirtile is like a medium difficulty, because the first
gym is weak against Water. Charmander is like a hard difficulty,
because the first two gyms are very effective against it. If you
choose Charmander, catch another Pokemon to fight against Brock
and Misty.
Information in this section was contributed by Zack Jefferson.
The best Pokemon to start with is Bulbasaur. He can defeat the
first two gyms. Charmander cannot defeat the two gyms and Squirtle
can only defeat Brock.
Information in this section was contributed by brandon barber.
Do not choose Charmander as it will make things difficult with
Misty and a lot of others. If you choose Sqiurtle do not worry
about Misty; it just needs to know bite. Catch a Diglett in Diglett's
cave before fighting Lt. Surge. Before fighting Erika, catch a
Doduo. They are in the nearest patch of grass to young couple
Lea and Jed. Everything else will be fine. If you choose Bulbasaur
most things will be fine. Use another Pokemon for Blaine and be
careful with Lorelei.
Information in this section was contributed by Tom Dewhurst.
The Water starter type Pokemon Squirtle is recommended. Squirtle
can learn Normal, Dark, Ground, Water, Ice and Fighting type moves
such as Tackle, Bite, Dig, Surf, Ice Beam, Focus Punch and Earthquake
when it is a Blastoise. Using Squirtle can help you defeat the
eight gym leaders quickly. Use Water attacks on Brock, Normal
or Dark attacks on Misty, Dig on Lt. Surge (because Electric Pokemon
are very weak against Ground type moves), and Ice attacks on Erika.
Against Koga, use any powerful attacks against or raise an Abra
and have it evolve into a Kadabra (or evolve it once more into
an Alakazam and use Psychic element attacks). When battling against
Sabrina and her trainers, use Bite against all her Pokemon for
very effective damage. Against Blaine and Giovanni (head of Team
Rocket), use Surf to wash their Pokemon out fast. Squirtle will
be a real powerhouse against the gym leaders and for the Pokemon
League. Your rival should not be a problem. His Pidgeot is weak
against Ice type moves, Rhydon will faint in seconds after a Surf
move, the powerful Alakazam will be weak against Bite because
it does not have a lot of Defense strength. For your rival's Arcanine,
use Water type moves to wipe it out. For his starter Pokemon Bulbasaur,
which should now be a Venusaur, use a lot of Ice Beams to make
it faint. For his Gyarados, use some powerful Electric attacks
or Rock type moves (for example, Zapdos or Golem).

Hint: Gender advantages for starter Pokemon:
If it is male you have a 70% chance of having +1 Attack.

Hint: Abra: To buy an Abra (level 7), go to the Game Corner in
Celadon City. Go up to the desk and buy 500 coins. Go next door

Center in Cerulean City. After giving Abra to the Daycare man,
walk around for about an hour. Abra will have leveled up about
10 levels or more.

level 9 Rattata. In battle, use Tackle once then a Pokeball to
catch it. If it does not work the first time, try again.
Information in this section was contributed by eamon butler.
Hint: Azurill: First, get the National Dex. Then catch two Marills
or a Marill and a Ditto. Breed with one of them holding the Sea
Incense. If the male Marill is holding the Sea Incense you will
get a female Azurill. If the female is holding the item you will
get a male Azurill. The same happens with Ditto even though it
is unidentified. If you have a male Marill and a Ditto the Ditto
will actually be a female Marill. You can find the Sea Incense
in Lost Cave where Lady Selphy is located.

Hint: Blissey: Catch a Chansy in the Safari Zone. Train it and make
sure to give it treats such as Carbos after difficult battles.
Walk everywhere and do not fly. Once it is about a level 37, give
it a treat and make it grow one more level. It should try to evolve.
If it stops you need to get the National Dex. When it tries to
learn Egg Bomb, this means that it will evolve soon.
Information in this section was contributed by Tom Dewhurst.
Hint: Blissey: Recommended moves: Use Return, Softboiled, Minimize and any special move
of your choice (preferably Psychic, Thunder, Blizzard or Flamethrower).
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Hill.
Hint: Butterfree: Catch a Caterpie. Evolve it to Metapod and then to
Butterfree. When it turns to Butterfree, get it to level 15 and
let it learn "Sleep Powder". Then teach it TM06 (Toxic),
TM32 (Double Team), and another move of your choice. When you
are fighting another Pokemon, select Butterfree. First use "Sleep

[Screenshot]
as many times as possible. When the other Pokemon wakes up, use
"Toxic" [Screenshot],

In Pokemon Leaf Green make sure that your Pokemon are at
least level 30. Hop off the boat and you will see a triangle-shaped

Information in this section was contributed by THE CODEMASTER SAZUKI.
Mewtwo can be caught with an Ultra Ball only when asleep.
Information in this section was contributed by PuffDady1357.
If you have already used your Master Ball, it is possible to catch
Mewtwo without putting him to sleep. If you battle with him for
a long time he will run out of attacks and will then just use
Struggle (a weak attack). You can then somewhat lower his health
and he will be easy to catch.
Information in this section was contributed by Alex Hinchey.
Bring over 60 Ultra Balls with a team of at least this three Pokemon:
Charizard (level 80), Moltres (level 70 or higher), and Vensuar
(level 70 or higher). Save in front of Mewtwo before you battle
it. Use Vensuar's Poison/Sleep Powder to weaken it, then use Charizard,
Moltres, or another Pokemon to weaken it. Note: Mewtwo can only
be caught when its HP is in the red and is asleep or poisoned.
When you through the Pokeballs press A very fast until
it is over Mewtwo. Each time the Pokeball moves one way, press
A . Repeat this as many times as needed.
Information in this section was contributed by pokemaster1122.
This strategy requires 30 Revives, several Ultra Balls, a Pokemon
that can Paralyze or Hypnotize (Haunter recommended), and two
backup Pokemon in the party (Dark/Steel/Psychic Pokemon recommended).
The strategy is to run Mewtwo's PP out. The best way to do this
is to attack Mewtwo with two backup Pokemon. When the battle begins,
switch out one of your backup Pokemon and fight Mewtwo. Do not
try to weaken him enough that Mewtwo is almost dead. Just weaken
Mewtwo enough so he is missing a little health. When your backup
Pokemon faints, switch to your other backup Pokemon. Revive the
other backup Pokemon that fainted earlier. Keep repeating this
until Mewtwo stops using Psychic and Safeguard. Once Mewtwo does
this, switch to Haunter. This strategy will work because it is
impossible to run out of Pokemon once you revive them. Mewtwo
has four moves:Psychic, Recover, Swift, and Safeguard. By now
Mewtwo should run on of PP for Psychic and Safeguard. This means
Mewtwo's only attack move is Swift. That is good because Swift
does not affect Haunter. Also, Haunter's Ghost attacks such as
Shadow Ball will be very effective against Mewtwo. Weaken Mewtwo
until he is almost dead then put him to sleep or paralyze him.
Do not weaken him to 1 HP because he might kill himself.

When you get One Island and do all the things needed to do go

He should give you another ticket. Go to Five Island. Go to the
Dotted Hole. If the person is not there, go to the door and use
Cut. Find your way to the bottom. You should see the sapphire.
A person will take it. Go to Team Rocket's warehouse and find
your way through. Battle the person that took the sapphire. He
should give it to you. Take it to Celio. The man in front of Cerulean
Cave should be gone if you have defeated the Elite Four and captured
at least 60 different Pokemon. Find your way through and Mewtwo
will be at the bottom.

Hint: Legendary Dogs: The legendary dog that you get in the game depends
on your starter.
To get all three Legendary Dogs, get together with two friends
before any of you start the game. Have one player get Charmander,
another get Squirtle, and the other get Bulbasaur. Each of you
will get one of the legendary dogs: Charmander, Suicune; Squirtle,
Raikou; and Bulbasaur, Entei. Once each of you has their own dog,
trade one dog for another. For example, player one's Suicune for
player two's Entei; player three's Raikou for player one's Entei;
and Player three's Raikou for player two's Suicune.

Look or something similar, or get a Pokemon with the Arena Trap
or Shadow Tag abilities to prevent them from escaping. If they
do, you will get another chance to catch them, providing you do
not make them faint.

Go to Route 11 next to Vermilion City. It is easier to find the
Legendary Dogs here.

To get Entei, Raikou, and Suicune easily, go to a route then exit
and enter it until you see one of them. Note: Do not forget to
use Max Repel.

To catch the Legendary Dogs, you first need to encounter it. That
part is purely luck. After you find it, get a Diglett or Dugtrio
with the ability Arena Trap. Put it first in your party. Buy about
five Super Repels and a lot of Ultraballs. Next, go to the route
you want to catch it on. This works if s the Arena Trap Pokemon
is a higher level than the wild Pokemon there, and is lower than
50. Also, if you use a repel stand in the grass. Save the game.
Check your Pokedex to see if it is on your route. If so, move
around until you run into it. If it does not appear, restart the
game and check again. Every time you restart the game, the Legendary
Dog will be at a different location. Saving on the route in the
grass ensures that it does not have a chance to leave before you
encoutner it, and the Arena Trap prevents it from escaping once
you do. Note: If the Pokemon uses Roar, you will not be able to
find it again. Save the game after every time you encounter it,
and work its HP down slowly. Attack only a few times then switch
out Pokemon so that it can run. Having it stay in the Pokeball
is the difficult part.
Information in this section was contributed by Awesome.
Finding any of the legendary dogs is a random event. Every time
you enter or exit a route they will move. Your best chance to
find them is to get a friend who has the Legendary Dog in your
game and have him or her trade it to you so that you can track
it down. Note: Do not forget Max Repels.

Hint : Legendary Birds: To catch the three Legendary Birds, battle with a strong
Pokemon that knows a Suffering Technique (Poison, Paralyze or
Burning) or Immobilizing Technique (Sleep or Freezing). When you
have applied the Status Changes, change this Pokemon with another
strong Pokemon that is resistant to any attack of the bird's attacks
(Water, Fire, Rock, Ground). Make sure these Pokemon are between
levels 47 and 55. Attack the bird with only one super effective
attack, then with other attacks. Take care of the birds' HP, more
if they are poisoned or burned. To keep the birds from fainting,
save the game before you battle them. If they faint, reset the
game. When they are on the red part of their HP, throw an Ultra
Ball.

Use the following trick to get Lugia, Zapdos, Moltres, and Articuno.
It requires a Gamecube, link cable, Pokemon XD: Gale Of Darkness,
and be able to trade on both games. You also must have captured
Lugia, Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno in Pokemon XD Gale of
Darkness. Connect the Game Boy Advance to the Gamecube. On
the Gamecube, go to the main menu. Go to the trading part where
you can exchange the Pokemon from Pokemon Leaf Green. Trade
the four legendary birds for whichever Pokemon desired. Note:
You cannot trade eggs or Shadow Pokemon. To purify Lugia, get
all nine sets in the purify chamber to full tempo, then place
Lugia in any of the nine sets. It should say something is different
about Lugia. Take Lugia out of the set and it will be purified.

Hint: Johto Pokemon: To get your first Pokemon from the Johto Region, defeat
the Elite Four. Go to Island 3, then go in the tunnel. Talk to
the man and he will give you a Nugget. Go out the door, and there
will be a small patch of grass. Walk around in it, and you will
find your first Johto Pokemon.
Hint: Duplicate Pokemon: Use the following trick to easily reproduce rare Pokemon,
such as Charizard, Lapras, etc. Capture a Ditto in Pokemon
Fire Red or Leaf Green. These can be found in the cave
at Cerulean. Transfer your Ditto to Pokemon Sapphire or
Ruby, then take it to the Daycare couple in Mauville and
leave it there. The quickest way to get an egg is to cycle back
and forth a few times in front of the Daycare Center until the
old man comes out of the gate. The egg he gives you will hatch
into the first evolution of whatever Pokemon you put into the
daycare. For example, a Charizard will give you a Charmander.
Trade with friends to get the other starters, breed an egg, then
trade back. The hatched Pokemon will have you as the original
trainer. Some Pokemon will not breed in this way, even though
they have a gender (such as Latios and Latias).
Information in this section was contributed by Ray
Martin.
Hint: Strong Pokemon: To get a Pokemon that us extraordinarily strong, you
must catch it at a low level (for example, level 3). The lower
the level, the more powerful they can get when they level up.
You also need to catch the Pokerus (Pokemon Virus). To get the
Pokerus, you must not ever run from a battle -- you need to have
the same Pokemon do an extreme amount of battling. Once a Pokemon
gets it, the virus will spread to all the Pokemon in your party.
They will grow extra strong from the boosted stats earned when
leveling up. For example, if a level 3 Magikarp is caught and
catches the virus when training, its stats will increase by 4
or 5 instead of the usual 3. As a result, when it gets to be a
Gyrados at level 100, it will have over 400 HP. Also use Medicine
to boost stats. The virus can only be caught once per Pokemon
and does not last forever. It goes away after you go to the Pokemon
Center too many times.
Information in this section was contributed by phong le.
Hint: Easy breeding: When breeding, if the Pokemon you intend to breed is
difficult to find catch a Ditto at about the same level as your
other Pokemon. There is a better chance of getting eggs if the
partners are almost the same level. For example, you can hatch
eggs with Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Eevee, Wynaut, and
Togepi.
Information in this section was contributed by XxxTMANxxx.
The following baby Pokemon can be obtained through breeding. Note:
If you have a Pokemon with a Ditto and the person outside says
"They don't seem to like each other much", they will
still create an egg. However it will take longer.
Dakota Windom
Cleefa: Clefairy and Ditto
Igglybuff: Jigglypuff and Ditto
Azurill: Maril with Sea Incense (from Lost Cave) and Marill or
Azumarill
Magby: Magmar and Ditto
Smoochum: Jynx and Ditto
Tyrogue: Hitmonchan or Hitmonlee and Ditto
Hint: Breeding legendary Pokemon: To get more than one legendary Pokemon (if it is a
female) go to the Day Care woman and put the legendary Pokemon
with any male Pokemon. Walk around for awhile then go back to
the Day Care man. If he has stepped forward, he has an egg for
you. Take it and walk around for awhile. It will hatch into the
legendary Pokemon that the female was.
Hint: Keep track of breeding steps: When you are breeding a Pokemon, you can always go
to the Safari Zone to keep track of your steps. When you are in
the Safari Zone, press Start to see how many steps you
have taken in order to calculate how many steps you need to breed
a Pokemon or egg. This is very useful when you are trying to keep
track of your breeding.
Information in this section was contributed by KissMyAsIf.
Hint: Easy egg hatching: Go to Island 4 and put a Ditto in the Day Care with
the Pokemon that you want to breed. Note: This will not work on
Legendarys. You can also put Lax Incense on one of them to sometimes
make a baby (like Pikachu makes a Pichu). Once you get your egg,
fly to Cerulean City and get on your bike. Go to the bike trail
that goes to Fushia City. Go on the left side and stick to the
right side of the gray path. Going straight down the long gray
path is exactly 136 steps -- it will not take long for the egg
to hatch.
Information in this section was contributed by rowlandbjbr.
When trying to hatch eggs faster, place a Pokemon in your party
whose ability is either Flame Body or Magma Armor (for example,
Slugma or Macargo). The ambient heat will incubate the egg and
cause it to hatch twice as fast.

Go to the Safari Zone and run around. The number of steps per
time is 600.
Information in this section was contributed by Lauren.
Go to the underground path from Route 6 (Vermilion City) to Cerulean
City. Keep running with the Running Shoes on and go in and out
until the egg hatches.

Go to Vermilion City. Go to the bridge to Lavender Town. Go to
Saffron heading to Celadon. Then, go to the Cycling Road and then
to Fuschia City. Then go back to the bridge to Lavender Town.
Do this three times. After that go to Vermilion City where the
old man with Machop is located. Go around them five times or more
until the egg hatches.

Hint: Card Key: Use the following steps to find the Card Key (a card-type
key that unlocks doors in Silph Co.'s head office in Saffron City).
The Card Key is on the fifth floor. Use the elevator to get there
quickly. Find a Team Rocket Member to the left. Move south, enter
the teleporter, then go back where you saw that Team Rocket Member
or the grunt. Then start moving to the right. You should see a
Pokeball that is the Card Key.

Hint: Coins: After you get an Itemfinder fly to Celadon City. Go
inside the Rocket Game Corner and use the Itemfinder to find buried
coins (10 to 100). Be careful not to kick them around.

Hint: Diploma: Complete the National Dex by catching all 386 Pokemon.
Hint: Exp. Share: Go to Fuchsia City. Walk to the building on the other
side of the building that you go through for Cycling Road. Go
upstairs and talk to the aide. If you have collected at least
fifty Pokemon, he will give you the Exp. Share. The Pokemon holding
this item will gain the exact same number of experience points.
For example, if Magikarp is holding it it and your Charizard just
went up to level 59 and the experience was 496, then Magikarp
will gain exactly 496 points.

Hint: Hydro Cannon: Go to Two Island. Look on your map. Where it reads
"Two Island", it will also read "Cape Brink".
If you go to Cape Brink, you will find a house on the very top
of it. Go in. There will be a woman in the house. Talk to her
and she will give you Hydro Cannon. Note: This will only work
if you have a strong Water Pokemon that is the first Pokemon in
your party.

You must have over 30 Pokemon before you can get the Itemfinder.
Information in this section was contributed by Dylan Lewis.
Hint: Leftovers: Use the Itemfinder where the two Snorlaxes appeared.
Hint: Luxury Ball: To obtain a Luxury Ball, you must have rescued Lady
Selphy from the Lost Cave on Five Island. After she returns to
her house, she will ramble on about how bored she is, then ask
to see a Pokemon. When she does this, fly back to the Five Island
Pokemon Center and take out the Pokemon that she requested to
see. Go back to her house. Place the Pokemon she wants to see
first in your party and talk to her. She will call her butler
over to you and reward you with a Luxury Ball. These balls are
rare and cause the Pokemon captured by them to become more friendly,
as if they were holding a Soothe Bell. You can do this as many
times as desired. Selphy will sometimes give you another item
besides a Luxury Ball, such as a Pearl. Note: If you save and
turn off your Game Boy Advance, Lady Selphy will ask to see another
Pokemon other than the one she asked for before.

Hint: Macho Brace: Use the Itemfinder where Giovanni was found in the
Viridian Gym.
Hint: Master Ball: The Master Ball can only be located by saving the president
that is in Saffron City, by defeating the leader of Team Rocket.
After defeating him, talk to the president. He will give you the
Master Ball. It will catch any Pokemon without fail.
Information in this section was contributed by BOBBY VADHANAPANICH.

Go to the house that says "Strongest Horn" and talk
to the lady inside. She will give you a nest ball.

Hint: Nuggets: Go to the last person (Team Rocket member) on Nugget
Bridge. Lose to that person after you get the Nugget. Repeat this
until you have the desired number of Nuggets. Note: If you save
the your game after defeating him, you will no longer be able
to do this.
Information in this section was contributed by Alex Maroney.
To get unlimited Nuggets, when you are going on the bridge in
Cerulean, intentionally lose. An easy way to do this is to catch
a Spearow, level 8 to10. This is recommended, as there is a girl
in Vermilion City that wants a Spearow for her Farfetch. Go to
the bridge after defeating all five trainers. Lose to the Rocket
with a Nugget. Deposit all your Pokemon except for Spearow. Continuously
lose to the Rocket until you have as many Nuggets as desired.

Hint: Old Rod: This can be obtained in Vermilion. Upon entering, go
left to the house at the end. The man in there will give you an
Old Rod (can only catch Magicarp).
Information in this section was contributed by Miles Smith.
Hint: PP Max: Go to Two Island. Make sure to have a Pokemon that
knows Surf. Go north towards Cape Brink and Surf in the pond below
the waterfall. Go to the lone space on the right and use your
Item Finder. PP Max is your reward. It allows a Pokemon's move
to be completely maxed out of how many times that Pokemon may
use it. Note: Choose wisely.
Information in this section was contributed by IDBigDog.
Hint: Rainbow Pass: After you get a National Dex, go to 1 Island and talk
to the man in the Pokemon Center working on the link. He will
ask for a gem. To get it, go to the to Rockets at Mt. Ember. After
they are done talking, battle both of them. Then, go inside and
find the gem (which is a ruby). Return to the Pokemon Center and
talk to the man again. He take it, and after he is done talking
he will give you a Rainbow Pass. This will unlock 4-7 Island.
Information in this section was contributed by Andrew Menard.
Use the following steps to get the Rainbow Pass and Ruby Plate.
To get the Rainbow Pass to access Islands 1 to 7, you must first
have the Tri-Pass. To get the Tri-Pass you must battle the seventh
gym leader and win. Then, Bill will appear and ask you to come
with him. Answer "Yes". When you get to the islands,
Celio will ask you to do a him a favor. While Bill fixes the network
computer, deliver the rock thing to the game place in Island 2.
You have to travel to Island 3 to save Lostelle from some Hypno.
Save her, then go back to Island 2 and give the rock. When you
go back to Island 1 you will find out that the network computer
is fixed. After you defeat the Elite Four and want to face the
Elite Four, you will learn that Lorelli is missing. She is located
at Island 4. You must do some things before you go to Island 4.
You must get the National Dex by catching 60 Pokemon. Talk to
Celio, who will ask you to get some gem stones. Go to Island 4.
Travel around until you get to the HM waterfall. Go out and enter
again. Surf up the waterfall and you will see Team Rocket. Defeat
them. Go to Island 1 to face Team Rocket on Mt. Ember and defeat
them to get the Ruby Plate.

Hint: Repel and Super Repel: Repel and Super Repel will keep all wild Pokemon of
a lower level than the first Pokemon in your party from attacking.
However, if the wild Pokemon is of the same level or higher, it
will attack. Due to the decreased amount of Pokemon to fight,
you will have less random encounters. To exploit the use of this,
go to a cave with high level Pokemon such as at Victory Road or
Union Cave. Use the Repel once inside. Find a boxed-in type of
corner and tap the D-pad gently towards a wall. If done
correctly, you will not hear a bumping sound. Doing this should
not reduce the number of steps remaining on you Repel counter,
because the Repel only counts movement that causes the character
to take a step not turning. Just turn into a wall to make it easier
for beginners. This trick is useful because you are always facing
a Pokemon that is of equal or greater level, allowing you to get
levels much faster than usual.

Hint: Ruby: Go to Mt. Ember. You must fight two Team Rocket goons.
Afterwards, go into the cave and navigate your way through it.
In the end you will find the ruby and get out of the cave.

Visit One Island as soon as you get the Tri-Pass. Go up to Mt
Ember until you enter the mountain and the screen looks like you
would when entering a house. Take the first right you reach and
follow it until you see two Team Rocket members. Talk to them
before you complete the game or you will not be able to enter
the cave to start getting the stones afterwards.

Hint: Running Shoes: Follow through Viridian Forest, go to Brock (the first
gym leader), and defeat him. Brock has three Pokemon: Geodude
level12, Onix level 14, and Geodude level 11. Then, go to the
path that leads to Mount Moon's base. Try to go past the man standing
slightly past the entrance. He should stop you. He is Professor
Oak's assistant. After talking to him, he will give you the Running
Shoes.

Hint: Sacred Ash: Go to the Naval Rock Island (if you have the Mystic
Ticket), and to the location where Ho-oh confronted you. Use the
Itemfinder and it will automatically dig up the Sacred Ash, just
like the Macho Brace at Viridian Gym after Giovanni left; and
the Top from Pokemon Tower after Mr. Fugi left.

Hint: Sapphire: Go to the dotted hole and use Cut. You must go to your
Pokemon menu and go to the Pokemon that has this ability. Next,
fall into the first hole. You are now on Basement Floor 1 (B1).
Go through the north hole and you will land on B2. Go through
the west hole once you are on B2. Once you arrive on B3, go through
the west hole and you will drop down to B4. Finally, go though
the south hole on B4. You will then arrive in a room. When you
go to the jewel, a man will come down and take it. However, he
will give you the second password to the Team Rocket hideout.
When you go there, you must fight the man in the end. After you
defeat him, he will give you the jewel. You must then take the
Sapphire to Celio, and then the link between Hoen and Kanto will
be open

Hint: Soothe Bell: Use the Itemfinder where Mr. Fugi was located in the
Pokemon Tower. Note that the Marowak in the Pokemon Tower cannot
be caught. Do not waste your Pokeballs because it will just dodge
them. To do this you will need two things, the Itemfinder and
the Silph Scope. You must have twenty different Pokemon. Talk
to Professor Oak's aide.

Hint: Super Rod: Go to Lavender Town. Go south until you find a house.
A man in that house will give you a Super Rod.
Information in this section was contributed by Miles Smith.
Hint: Save TM: When you have lost any important TM (Shadow Ball, Thunder,
Fire Blast, Psychic, etc.), catch or transfer a Ditto. Grab the
Pokemon that has the TM then breed it. You will now have the first
Pokemon with a TM. This trick is useful when you have lost Eartquake,
also is useful when you have any Pokemon to Battle Frontier higher
than level 50. Only breed it then you will have the Pokemon with
some attack learned by the Pokemon. When you need other Pokemon,
try to breed other Pokemon than Ditto. Find a combination until
you find a Pokemon. Note: This trick cannot be used with legendary
Pokemon.

Hint: Strong TMs: If you lose Roar, HyperBeam, Dig, SecretPower and Attract,
go to the Celeldon Department Store. You can purchase those TMs
on the second floor.

Hint: Defeating Blamie: In order to battle Blamie the Fire Pokemon trainer
(seventh gym leader at Cinnabar Island), you will need the secret
key that is found inside the Pokemon Mansion that will open the
door. You should have any Pokemon that are strong enough to withstand
Fire attacks such as Flamethrower, Overheat, Firespin, Fire Blast,
Flame Wheel, and Ember. Get Water pokemon and teach them Surf
any and attaks that will cause poison, confusion, and other statuses
to win the battle.
Information in this section was contributed by BOBBY VADHANAPANICH.
Hint: Defeating Brock: First, get a Caterpie. Then, use it a lot to make sure
it evolves into a Metapod. When you evolve Caterpie, Metapod is
harder to train up, but it is worth it. Make sure you evolve it
into Butterfree and use it against Brock. Buterfree can make defeating
the hardest Pokemon Brock has, Onix easy. Use Confusion all of
the time.
Information in this section was contributed by Fo782.
First, get a Charmander. Then, level it up until it becomes a
Charmeleon. By that time it should know the move "Metal Claw."
this move is very effective against Stone types. You also need
to evolve the Charmander into a Charmeleon because Onix's attack,
Rock Tomb is very effective against Fire types.
Information in this section was contributed by soki477.
Both Steel and Fighting-type moves are very effective against
Rock-type Pokemon. Train your Charmander up to level 13 so that
it knows Metal Claw and/or train a Mankey to help you fight. Mankey's
Low Kick is very effective on Onix.
Hint: Defeating Giovanni: An easy way to defeat Giovanni in all battles is to
use a Water Pokemon with Surf on all his Pokemon.
Hint: Tougher Elite Four: After you complete the Team Rocket warehouse on Five
Island, return to Lorlie's house on Four Island. When you walk
in she will not be there. Go to Vermillion. Go to Indigo Plateau
and fight the Elite Four again. The Pokemon will be over level
63.
Information in this section was contributed by Andrew Hatcher.
Hint: Defeating the Elite Four: Catch Zapdos or level up a Raichu or another Electric
Pokemon to leve; 53 or higher. Get an Articuno or a high level
Ice Pokemon. Teach it Fly. Make sure every Pokemon you have is
at least level 49.after you finish Victory Road. Buy Max Potions,
Full Restores, etc., then go through the door. When facing Lorelei,
use your Electric type and use your strongest Electric type attacks
(Thunder recommended). When facing Bruno, use your Flying type
attacks on the Fighting type and Ice, Water, and Grass type on
the Rock type. Try to do it in two or less turns on each of his
Pokemon. They will probably use a strong attack on you. Also,
try to use a weak attack first and a final blow last because they
use Full Restores if you get them down to red and try to kill
them. When facing Agatha, her first Gengar will try to poison
you with Toxic. Try to kill her as fast as possible. For the others,
try to use Hypnosis. Use Dark moves on her Psychic and Ghost types.
This battle will be difficult. When facing Lance, use your good
Electric types on his Gyarados and Dragonairs and the other Dragon/Water
type. For Dragonite, use your Ice to hammer it down. His Pokemon
mostly use Dragon Rage, Outrage and Hyper Beam. When they use
Hyper Beam, they will rest for a turn. For your rival battle,
keep healing and rotate Pokemon until you defeat him. Having a
Grass, Water, Fire, and Electric type are recommended.

Brock: Type Rock; weaknesses Grass or water.
Misty: Type Water; weaknesses Grass or Electric.
Lt. Surge: Type Electric; weaknesses Rock, Ground, or Grass
Erika: Type Grass; weakness any Fire Pokemon with a Fire attack
Koga: Type Poison; weakness Fire Pokemon.
Sabrina: Type Psychic; Weakness Ghost with Curse.
Blaine: Type Fire; Weakness Water with Surf and/or Hydro Pump
like Gyarados.
Giovanni: Type Earth/Rock/Ground; weakness Water or Grass like

Hint: Get to One Island: To Get to One Island, defeat the Cinnabar Island Gym
Leader, Blaine. When you come out, Bill will take you to One Island
and give you the Tri-Pass. This will allow you to return at any
time by taking the Pass to the boat dock in Vermilion City.
Hint: Getting to Saffron City: Go to the Celedon Department Store. Buy all three drinks
on the sixth floor. The guard will not let you win. In order to
get in go to the Mansion that is next a man talking about hot
tea, go to the Right side of the Mansion. Enter, then talk to
the old lady. She will give you the Tea, and you can now enter
Saffron City.
Information in this section was contributed by BOBBY VADHANAPANICH.
This trick requires two Game Boy Advances, a link cable, a Pokemon
Ruby or Sapphire game with a "Fresh Water"
in the pack, and a Pokemon Fire Red or Leaf Green
game that is completed and able to trade with Pokemon Ruby
or Sapphire. Also, you will need another Pokemon Fire
Red or Leaf Green cartridge. Give a Pokemon a Fresh
Water. Trade the Pokemon from Pokemon Ruby or Sapphire
to the completed Pokemon Fire Red or Leaf Green
game. Take the Fresh Water and attach it to a Pokemon not from
Pokemon Ruby or Sapphire. Trade it to the other
Pokemon Fire Red or Leaf Green game. Give the Fresh
Water to the guard. You can now access Saffron City easier. You
can also do the same thing without the Pokemon Ruby or
Sapphire cartrigde. Also, it works better when you have
the completed cartridge and your friend has the unfinished game.

Hint: Safari Zone: When you get in the Safari Zone you will need to pay
500 to enter and will receive 30 Safari Balls. You cannot use
any Pokemon. All you can use is Ball, Bait, Rock, or Run. Ball
is to catch the Pokemon, Bait is to give the Pokemon food, and
Rock is to throw a rock make a Pokemon angry. However, they will
not use an attack on you.

Find one location in the Safari Zone that suits you. Then, just
rotate in place. Random Pokemon should you attack you every few
rotations.
Information in this section was contributed by Dragdriver1414.
Go to the Safari Zone with a Pokemon that knows Sweet Scent. Go
to the area where you want to catch Pokemon. Then, use Sweet Scent
until you find what you want. Because you do not have to move
to use Sweet Scent, you can do this as much as desired. To use
Sweet Scent outside of battle, go to a place where you can normally
catch Pokemon. Then, press Start. Go to the where it reads
"Pokemon" on the menu. Then, choose the Pokemon that
knows Sweet Scent. It should have "Sweet Scent" as an
option. Choose "Sweet Scent" and you are done. Repeat
the process if you want to do it more than once.

Seaking
Dratini
Dragonair
Hint: Seven Island boxes: Use the following trick to pass the boxes in the old
lady's house on Seven Island. Reach her without taking the Tea
from the other old lady in the Game Freak mansion. It is simple
because Celio takes you to One island after the Cinnabar Gym,
which you can complete without entering Saffron City. Go through
the game as if Saffron City does not exist.

Hint: Team Rocket Hideout passwords: The passwords to the Team Rocket hideout on the 5th
Island are as follows:
Passwords can be found after defeating the Elite Four and getting
60 Pokemon Data. Password 1 is on Island 1 near Mt. Ember, where
the two Team Rocket members are found. Password 2 is where you
find the Sapphire stone. Note: You cannot enter the passwords
themselves at the door to the Team Rocket Hideout. You must to
hear them to get in the Team Rocket Hideout Warehouse.

Try the following team. Note: You must defeat the Elite Four to
achieve this lineup, but once attained it is almost unstoppable.
Aerodactyl cannot take recoil damage from Double-Edge due to Rock
Head ability. Pinsir has amazingly high attack for a bug. Tyranitar
is a pure juggernaut, and is rarely defeated.
Information in this section was contributed by chrisandrews90.
Have the following Pokemon team (all male for ultimate attack,
or female for defense). They are almost all Dragons with a weakness
for Ice-types, but they are very strong with attack and defense.
All of them have an attack that they must to rest from. This is
done because most attacks do not do as much as them in three turns.
This only takes two turns and does a lot of damage. However, only
use them for finishing moves. Gyarados is the only non-Dragon
type there. Try substituting Kingdra and Gyarados with Latios
and Latias (from Pokemon Emerald, Ruby, and Sapphire)
for similar or better results. For the absolute best team, you
must give the Ruby and Sapphire to Celio. It will take some time,
but is worth it.

Hint: Recommended Pokemon League moves:
Information in this section was contributed
by PuffDady1357.
If you started with Charmander, the best moves for Charzard are
Blast Burn, Flamethrower, Hyper Beam, And Fly.
If you started with Bulbasuar, the best moves are Sleep Powder,
Stun Spore, Solar Beam, and Giga Drain.
If you started with Squirtle, the best moves are Hydro Cannon,
Surf, Hyper Beam, and Blizzard.
Hint: Easy wins: This trick requires a Shedinja, a Pokemon that knows
Skill Swap, and a Ghost-Dark hybrid, and can only be used in a
double battle. Enter the Shedinja and the Pokemon that knows Skill
swap into battle first. Have the Pokemon that knows Skill swap
use it on Shedinja. Then, switch Shedinja out with your Ghost-Dark
hybrid, and have the Pokemon who knows Skill Swap use it on your
Ghost-Dark hybrid. Because no move can deal Super Effective damage
to a Ghost-Dark hybrid, using this trick to swap Shedinja's Wonderguard
over to one will make it completely invincible. However, even
with Wonderguard, the Ghost-Dark hybrid will only be invulnerable
to attacks. This means that special conditions, recoil, etc. will
still do damage to it.

Hint: Easy money: To get easy money, use a Meowth with the Pay Day attack
in wild or trainer battles.
Information in this section was contributed by mcewans.
To do this, you must defeat the Elite Four, have the Amulet Coin,
the Vrs Seeker, and the Rainbow Pass. First, go to Island 5. Go
up along the coast. Surf north until you meet a trainer on a tiny
island. Ignore him or her. Then, go east a short distance and
you will find a bigger island with a house. There is a Lady named
Jacki near the island you saw a moment ago. She has a level 48
Hopip and a level 50 Skiploom. They are Grass/Flying type. Give
the Amulet Coin to a Pokemon that is good against them. Put it
up front. Battle her and you will get 20,000 in money. Use the
Vrs Seeker to battle her again with the same Pokemon and get 20,000
in money again. Run around the island until your Vrs Seeker is
recharged. Battle her as much as desired.
Information in this section was contributed by jek
and samz.
To get quick money, get a Zigzagoon. Battle with it. After every
battle, look to see if it has a Nugget. When you get one, sell
it for lots of money. Note: It will also get lots of other items.
Information in this section was contributed by Evil Genius Ryan.
Have at least two Pokemon and access to Five Island, a level 45
to 50 Persian that knows Pay Day and is holding Amulet Coin, and
another Pokemon that is not holding anything but knows Thief.
Go to Resort Gorgeous and find the two rich ladies. Fight them
using the Vs Seeker. Lady Jacki uses a level 48 Hoppip. Use your
Persian and Pay Day against it. The second uses a level 50 Skiploom.
Switch to your thieving Pokemon and use Thief to get his Stardust.
You will get 2,000 in money (not counting Pay Day), and take the
Stardust away from your thief. Lady Gillian uses a level 49 Mareep.
Use your Persian against it and Pay Day until it faints. The second
is a level 48 Mareep. Use the same attack as the first, Pay Day.
The third is a level 49 Flaffy. Switch to your thief and steal
his Nugget. Then, finish him off. Repeat this as many times as
desired.

Go to treasure beach directly below the One Island port. Then,
use the Itemfinder to find the two Pearls. Go to any shop and
sell them. Repeat this as many times as desired.
Information in this section was contributed by Ace Tempest.
Catch a Meowth. Raise Meowth untill it learns the move Pay Day.
Then, give Meowth the Amulet Coin. For every Pay Day used with
Meowth still in battle at the end, it will give you 10 credits
per level. For example, if you have a level 25 Meowth it will
give you 250 credits per Pay Day attack.
Information in this section was contributed by Rod Robertson.
Hint: Saving money: To save money, buy only regular Pokeballs (about 350
to 400). Buy as few of Potions, Super Potions, Full Heals, Hyper
Potions, Max Potions, and Max Revives as possible. Instead, go
to Two Island and buy Fresh Water for 200 (heals your Pokemon
by 50 points), Soda Pop for 300 (heals your Pokemon by 60), Lemonade
for 350 (heals your Pokemon by 80), Moomoo Milk for 500 (heals
your Pokemon by 100), and Lava Cookies for 200 (acts as Full Heal).
However, still purchase Full Restores and Revives for when you
are in a tight spot. Also, use the Poke-Flute to wake up Pokemon
and the Yellow Flute to snap them out of confusion.
Information in this section was contributed by Dustin Droddy.
Hint: Easy experience: At the beginning of the game, choose Bulbasaur or Charmander
to be able to train them faster after the second gym. When you
are first able to catch Pokemon, go to Route 22 west of Viridian
and catch a Spearow and Mankey. Both will train fast against the
early wild Pokemon. Then, train Spearow as much as possible in
the Viridian Forest. Its Peck attack will be very effective against
every Pokemon in the forest, except for Pikachu (which you should
catch because it is rare). After coming out of the forest with
a level 10 to 15 Spearow, you should then train Mankey in the
grass north of the exit of Viridian Forest. After he learns Low
Kick, you can seriously damage the Rattata you will find there.
Then in the same patch of grass, train Pikachu. Its Thundershock
wipes out pidgeys. Then, train Bulbasaur or Squirtle until it
learns Vine Whip or Bubble. You can use these against Brock. Defeat
Brock with your starter Pokemon, then train as evenly as possible
with everyone else on Route 3, facing all the trainers. Note:
Use Pikachu against the toddlers; they seem to like Pidgeys and
Spearows. When in Mt. Moon, train Pikachu against the Zubats in
the cave. Also, catch a Paras. Additionally, catch a Clefairy
if you can find one, although by this time it will be useless
to you. Get the TM Bullet Seed left of the entrance to the cave
and teach it to Paras. Then, train it against a wild Geodude.
Also teach the TM Rock Tomb that you got from Brock to Mankey
and train it against Zubats along with Pikachu. Before going to
the Nugget Bridge, make sure Pikachu is first in your party. You
will face Gary and he uses Pidgeotto first. Then at the Nugget
Bridge and the road to Bill's House, train Paras against the hikers.
Also train Spearow against the bug catchers. After that training,
defeat Misty with Pikachu (and Paras if Pikachu faints). Then,
go down to Vermilion and face a few of sailors on the outside
deck of the ship. Then, go to the Pokemon Center. Next, go to
the route east of Vermilion and train against the gamblers with
Pikachu and Paras and use whoever you taught Dig to against the
mechanics. Next, go Diglett's cave and have lots of Pokeballs
to use, if you find a wild Dugtrio. Then, train Paras in the cave.
Also train Squirtle/Bulbasaur. Then, go to the ship as usual and
most of your Pokemon should be at or better than level 20. Also,
Bulbasaur/Squirtle, Paras, and Spearow should be evolved and you
can face Surge with the Pokemon that knows Dig or Mankey with
Karate Chop against the Voltorbs.
Information in this section was contributed by Psice Man.
Put a Pokemon in the daycare. ever step you take after that will
give your Pokemon one experience point. Go to Rocket Hide Out
in the Casino. Go to part with the moving floor. Find a part where
the ground moves straight to a location where it makes you stop.
Tape the D-pad in the direction of the moving ground. Check
on it every once in awhile to make sure it is still working. Keep
the game in this state for a few hours for easy experience.
Information in this section was contributed by John Collins.
Note: This trick requires the Vs Seeker, a bike, and Experience
Share. Have a level 50 or greater Pokemon with a powerful attack.
Get the Pokemon you want to level up out of the PC. Give it the
Experience Share and repeatedly fight the trainers at the top
of cycling road. This is a good location because the Pokemon here
are about level 30, and there are a lot of trainers in view. Let
the Pokemon try its luck fighting them when it gets to level 25.
To get rich during this, give the Pokemon that fights most of
the time the Amulet Coin. Another good way is to fight the Elite
Four with the Experience Share Pokemon with you.
Information in this section was contributed by Kris Reuter.
Note: This trick requires a Vs Seeker, Tri-Pass, Experience Share
(if you want to train level 40 and below Pokemon), and preferably
a bicycle. Go to One Island. Surf to the right on Kindle Road.
Go north until you reach a cave side entrance. There will be two
karate trainers running back and forth and a Crush Kin Team on
the same screen. Before defeating the Elite Four, the Black Belt
on the left has a level 37 Machop and 37 Machoke. The Black Belt
on the right has a level 38 Machop and Machoke. The Crush Kin
has a level 39 Machoke and level 39 Primeape. After defeating
the Elite Four, both of the Black Belts have a level 55 Machoke
and Machamp, and the Crush Kin has a level 56 Machamp and Primeape.
Fight them and use the Vs Seeker an unlimited number of times
to fight them repeatedly. In the cave is the Ember Spa, where
you can heal your Pokemon, should they get too hurt from fighting
those enemies. Your Pokemon will level up very fast, but after
defeating the Elite Four the battles can get a little bit harder
to win due to the massive level increase.
Information in this section was contributed by chrisandrews90.
Get either a Zapdos or a Fearow that knows the move "Drill
Peck". Make sure it is at least level 53. Put it at the head
of the party. Place any level 60 Pokemon second, the Pokemon you
want to gain the experience third, and equip it with the Exp.
Share. Give your lead Pokemon the Amulet Coin. In the last three
slots, you can put Eggs that you wish to hatch. Go to Kindle Road
on One Island. Move north towards Mt. Ember. There should be five
trainers there. Defeat them, then use the Vs. Seeker to face them
again. They have Primeapes, Machokes, and Machamps at levels 55
and 56. Repeatedly defeat them to gain quick experience and money.
To heal, go north to the Ember Spa and go to the Rejuvenation
Pool. Repeat this as many times as desired.
Information in this section was contributed by Ken Latham.
Go to the Pokemon Day Care Center. Give him the Pokemon you wish
to level up. That Pokemon gets experience for every step you take.
Go outside and walk around. If you do this for a very long time
the Pokemon will get more experience and then level up.
Information in this section was contributed by Matt Steigely.
Go to Biker's Pass and go to the six Bikers/Cue Balls. Beat them
up. Use the Vs. Checker and keep fighting them. You can get Easy
Pokeyen and experience. This can help you defeat the Elite Four
easier.

Hint: Sabrina's gym: To get to Sabrina faster, try this trick. Go to the
first teleporter, then move left, down, left, left. To get back
to the start, do the opposite.

After you go on the first portal, keep going to the portal directly
across and it will take you directly to Sabrina. There is a certain
way to get to Sabrina without battling anyone.

Hint: Finding Selphy: In the Lost Cave, start from the beginning and go right,
up, down, down, right, left, down, and right. When she sees you,
she will fight with two level 49 Persians. Afterwards you will
go to her house and ask to see a Pokemon (Arkanine).
Information in this section was contributed by HPK2004.
After you find Selphy in the lost cave, go to her house at Resort
Gorgeous. Talk to her and she will ask to see a Pokemon. If you
have that Pokemon, then go to the Pokemon Center on Five Island.
Add the Pokemon to your party then go back to her house. Show
her, and she will call her butler. He will give you something
for it (for example, a Star Piece and Luxury Balls).
Information in this section was contributed by claire simpson.
Hint: Determining Pokemon's feelings towards
you: When you use an item on one of your Pokemon outside
of a battle, such as a Potion, the Pokemon will either move closer
or away from you in the short intermission sequence. How far the
Pokemon moves depends on how much it likes you. If it does not
move at all, it feels neutral.
Information in this section was contributed by Bendilin.
Hint: Trainer name comment: At the Pokemon Trainer Fan Club in Saffron City, the
blonde man in the back will mention the last person you battled
in real life. For example, if you battle a friend who named their
character "Dusty", he will say, "Dusty's cool,
huh? I love the way he talks. I'd really relish a chance to meet
him in person once."

Yes
Quiz 06: TM28 contains Tombstony? No
Hint: Profile: After playing awhile and getting all eight Badges,
fly back to Pewter City and go into the Pokemon Center. Inside,
beside the PC, will be a lady who asks you what your profile is.
Answer "Yes" to her question to create your own profile.
Profiles are useless and have no meaning whatsoever, but are fun
to make.
Information in this section was contributed by nick vacirca.
Hint: More than one attempt when catching
a Legendary Pokemon: When you are close to a Legendary Pokemon and want
to catch it, save the game just before you battle it. If you accidentally
make it faint, Just reset the game and try again.
Hint: Catching Pokemon easily: When catching a Pokemon (for example, a legendary),
buy one good Pokeball (for example, a Master Ball) then buy a
large number of normal Pokeballs. Go to the place where you want
to catch a Pokemon. Then got to your bag. Go to the Pokeballs.
Use the single good Pokeball then use a normal Pokeball. When
you are throwing the Pokeball hold A + B, then when
it goes one way release A and keep holding B.

Hint: Trade to Pokemon Colosseum:
To trade your Pokemon to Pokemon Colosseum
through a link cable, you must first complete the game and defeat
the Elite 4. You can now trade Pokemon like Mewtwo, Lugia and
Ho-oh (if you have the Mystery Pass), Deoxys (if you have the

Hint: Pat Benatar reference: One of the trainers you can fight will say "Hit
me with your best shot!" at the beginning of the fight and
"Fired away!" after you defeat him. Both of those lines
are a reference to the Pat Benatar's song "Hit Me With Your
Best Shot".

Glitch: Raticate and Repel: When you are in the Pokemon Mansion on Cinnabar Island,
using any Repel will keep every Pokemon away except one, Raticate.
This is rare, but you can run into a Raticate while looking around.

Glitch: Funny water noise: First, mate two Pokemon that have the Surf move (or
one and a Ditto). When you get the egg, move directly in front
of water and press action (A). You will hear a noise as
if you were going to use Surf, but you do not. This will happen
every time until you get rid of the egg or it hatches. Note: If
you have any active Pokemon that knows Surf, this will not work.
Also, the two Pokemon have to be mateable.

Glitch: Incorrect dialogue: Go to the Pokemon Center in front of Mt. Moon. Talk
to the man that asks you if you want to buy a Magikarp for $500.
If you are the male trainer, he will call you "Miss".
