=======================2d. Ability: Soundproof [urdef]=======================

o------------------------------------------------o Grasswhistle| The Soundproof Ability negates all moves that | Growl| are based on sound. It's helpful to know which | Heal Bell| moves fall into this category, so I've taken | Howl| the liberty of composing this list of moves. | Hyper Voice| Each attack listed to the right is sound-based | Metal Sound| and will fail if used on a Pokemon that sports | Perish Song| the Soundproof Ability. Although no Pokemon so | Roar

| far can naturally have the Cacophony Ability, | Screech| it works just like Soundproof. If none of the | Sing| blocked moves are different, why did they | Snore| exclude it? Will it be in Diamond and Pearl? | Supersonico------------------------------------------------o Uproar

======================2e. Special Conditions [mjsts]======================

Taken from the Pokemon TCG, I use the term "Special Condition" to


28/317

refer tomajor status effects. These can only be inflicted one at a time.

BRN - Burn. Attack stat is cut in half. Damaged by 1/8 max HP between

turns. Goto a Pokemon Center or use a Rawst Berry, Lum Berry, Burn Heal, FullHeal, or Full Restore to cure this condition.

FNT - Faint. Cannot be used in battle. Go to a Pokemon Center or use aRevive,

Rare Candy (at Lv.99 or lower), Revival Herb, or Max Revive to curethis

condition.*

FRZ - Freeze. Cannot attack. If Flamethrower or Fire Blast is used on theFrozen Pokemon, said Pokemon will defrost. Also, if said Pokemon

usesFlame Wheel or Sacred Fire, user will also defrost. May defrost after arandom number of turns. Go to a Pokemon Center or use an Aspear

Berry,Lum Berry, Ice Heal, Full Heal, or Full Restore to cure this condition.

PAR - Paralyze. Speed is cut by 75%, 20% chance per turn of being

immobilized.Have the move Smellingsalt used on you, go to a Pokemon Center, or

use aCheri Berry, Lum Berry, Parlyz Heal, Full Heal, or Full Restore to curethis condition.

PSN - Poison. HP will drop by 1/16 between turns. The exception to this isif

the PSN status is inflicted by the use of Toxic or Poison Fang, in

whichcase poison damage begins at 1/16 max HP and increases betweenturns.

Outside of battle, each Pokemon inflicted with the PSN status willlose 1

HP for every four steps taken by the Trainer, regardless of how thestatus was inflicted. Go to a Pokemon Center, or use a Pecha Berry,

LumBerry, Full Heal, Full Restore, or an Antidote to cure this condition.

SLP - Sleep. Cannot attack unless Sleep Talk or Snore is used. Will wear


29/317

off inbattle after a random amount of turns. If the SLP status is inflicted byuse of Rest, it will wear off in two turns (one if the Pokemon has theEarly Bird Ability). Go to a Pokemon Center, or use a Blue Flute,

ChestoBerry, Lum Berry, Full Heal, Poke Flute, Full Restore, or anAwakening to

cure this condition.

* - While FNT can be considered a Special Condition, when I tell you toinflicta Special Condition (like for catching legendaries), I do not mean toinflictthe FNT status, even though a few moves do just that (Horn Drill, forexample).

=======================2f. Evil Status Effects [mnsts]=======================

These status effects are evil because there's no limit to how many you canputon a Pokemon. To cure the evil status effects, simply switch out... if you

can.They have no abbreviations, but the list goes like this:

1. Attract. The foe of the opposite gender falls in love with the user. As aresult, they have a 50% chance of not attacking. Don't want tohurt the ones you love, right? Use the move Attract to obtainthis effect. Wears off when the user of Attract is recalled. Canalso be cured by use of Mental Herb or Red Flute.

2. Confuse. The foe becomes more confused than a hungry baby at atoplessclub, which means there's a 50% that the foe will hurt itself.Use Swagger, Flatter, Confuse Ray, Supersonic, Confusion,Psybeam, or Water Pulse to inflict this effect. Will wear offafter a random amount of turns. You may also use a Yellow

Flute,Persim Berry, Lum Berry, Full Heal, or Full Restore to cure thiscondition. Note that you can also confuse yourself by usingPetal Dance, Outrage, or Thrash.


30/317

3. Curse. The foe is afflicted by a vicious curse that takes 1/4 of afoe's max HP between turns at a one-time cost of 50% the user'smax HP. Have a Ghost-type use the move Curse to obtain thiseffect.

4. Disable. The foe's last successfully performed move is disabled,preventing its use for a random number of turns. Use the moveDisable to obtain this effect. Only one move can be Disabled perPokemon at any given time.

5. Encore. The last move the foe used will be repeated over 2-6 turns.Use

the move Encore to obtain this effect.

6. Flinch. This effect can only be seen if the Pokemon trying to obtainthis effect is faster than its foe. The foe will retract in fearfor one turn, preventing them from attacking. Equip a Pokemon

with a King's Rock item or use Astonish, Bite, Extrasensory,Fake Out (your Pokemon's first turn only), Headbutt, Hyper

Fang,Needle Arm, Rock Slide, Sky Attack, Secret Power inside a cave,Snore, Stomp, or Twister to obtain this effect.

7. Imprison. The foe can no longer use moves the user knows. UseImprison to

obtain this effect.

8. Haunted. Sleeping Pokemon are tormented by a frighteningnightmare that

will take 1/4 their max HP away between turns as long as theysleep. Use Nightmare on a Pokemon inflicted with SLP to obtainthis effect.

9. Seeded. Seeds are planted on the foe's body, sucking their life awayat

a rate of 1/16 the foe's max HP between turns. Note that Grass-types cannot be seeded. Use Leech Seed to obtain this effect.

10. Taunted. The foe becomes enraged, and in their blind fury can onlyuse

moves that cause direct damage for two turns. Use Taunt toobtain this effect.


31/317

11. Tormented. The Pokemon cannot use the same move twice in a row.Use the

move Torment to obtain this effect.

12. Trapped. The Pokemon cannot escape battle. Most will wear offbetween3-5 turns after use. Have either the Arena Trap* or Shadow Tag

Ability, be a Metal-type against a Pokemon with the Magnet PullAbility, or use Bind, Fire Spin, Ingrain, Mean Look, Sand Tomb,Spider Web, Whirlpool, or Wrap to obtain this effect.

* Flying-types, as well as those with the Levitate and Run AwayAbilities, are not affected by Arena Trap.

ability tosweep the entire Elite Four. Well, the Elite Four's been changedaround a little in Emerald, and so where Torchic shined most, she

now

fails at life. To that extent, Treecko would serve better. It farespretty well against the Elite Four, but if you don't choose Treecko,that means you're stuck with Torkoal (ew), Magcargo (double ew),

andNinetales for Fire-types... unless you've got Colosseum.

Question: WHAT DOES POKEMON COLOSSEUM HAVE TO DO WITHANYTHING?

Answer: Colosseum has no trading restrictions. Once a Colosseum filehas

cleared Story Mode, that file can trade with Emerald. Under normalcircumstances, Emerald could only trade with Ruby, Sapphire, andEmerald until the Emerald player entered the Hall of Fame andreceived the National Pokedex. Let's say you have a Furret inLeafGreen you want to raise in Emerald. You have no Badges inEmerald, so you can't trade directly between Emerald and

LeafGreen.But wait! If you trade Furret into Colosseum from LeafGreen, you

willbe able to put it into Emerald, as long as it comes directly fromColosseum!

How cool is that?

Question: HOW DO I GET JIRACHI AND DEOXYS?

Answer: You can get Jirachi by using the bonus disc that came with the

English version of Pokemon Colosseum. To get Deoxys, you'll havetotrade it from FireRed or LeafGreen.

Question: HOW DO I GET TO SOUTHERN ISLAND?

Answer: Did you ever do it for your copy of Ruby & Sapphire? The samething

applies for Emerald, but what I said was totally off. Apparently, allyou have to do is mix records with a Ruby or Sapphire cartridge

that


35/317

has the Eon Ticket in it, and it should appear in your game. Takethis ticket to Slateport City's Harbor and talk to the lady in frontof the ferry. She'll introduce you to a sailor who will tell you alittle about nothing, and then take you there. Upon arriving, you'll

notice that the outside is just trees, except for one sign thatreads:

"Those whose memories fade seek to carve them in their hearts..."

Anyway, the real reason you're here is what's inside. Walk inside,and you'll encounter a weird object. What is it? Some say it's anegg, others say it's a stone. Nobody really knows for sure. Savebefore examining the stone. Once you do, Latios or Latias willappear. The one that appears depends on the color you told yourmother. The color you didn't choose determines what dragon is

here.If you told your mom a red thing was flying around, Latios will behere. A blue thing flying around means Latias. Each of them areLv.50, and he/she carries the Soul Dew item, which increases

his/herSpecial Attack and Special Defense. This is the ONLY opportunity

youhave to catch the other one because you can only examine the

stoneonce, so just reset if you kill him/her.

Question: HOW DO I GET MEW?

Answer: Mew is found on "World's Edge Island," and you need somesort of Old

Sea Chart item to get there. I know nothing of this place, don't askme about it.

Question: CAN YOU RATE MY TEAM?

Answer: I don't rate teams, sorry.

Question: PLEASE SUPPLY ME WITH CODES FOR THIS GAME.

Answer: No. I'd ask you not to e-mail me asking for codes, but I'm suresome

yutz is going to anyway, so I will.


36/317

**** DO NOT E-MAIL ME ASKING FOR CODES, I WILL NOTGIVE YOU ANY. ****

Question: WHAT IS ITEM FARMING?

Answer: Item farming is quite simple. All you need to do is carry five orsix

Pokemon on your team that have the Pickup Ability, then do somefights. The idea is that with so many Pokemon who have Pickup,

one ormore of them will have an item when the battle ends. These items

canthen be dequipped and sold for quick, easy cash.

In Ruby & Sapphire, this was easy. Nuggets were a fairly commonitem

to be found on Zigzagoon (earliest Pokemon with Pickup).

They changed it in Emerald, though. Normally, one would walkaround

with a few Lv.3 Zigzagoon and start raking in the items. Now, if youwant the good items, you're going to have to start raising thosePokemon that can Pickup. And I mean a lot. I had a Lv.49

Teddiursathat started bringing me Rare Candies, but then started to get lameby bringing home X Attack and Repel. Ew. The best items are, ofcourse, brought by Lv.91-100 Pokemon. Have fun.

Question: WHAT POKEMON HAVE THE PICKUP ABILITY?

Answer: Zigzagoon, Linoone, Phanpy, Meowth, Aipom, and Teddiursa.

Question: IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS GOOD, WHERE IS FEEBAS?

Answer: Ok, good news/bad news time. The good news: It's only on oneroute,

which makes it easier to find. The bad news? It's on Route 119. Haveyou ever actually taken the time to walk through it? It takes quite awhile, and there's lots of water to search. You'll have to searcheach and every square of water if you want to find Feebas. When

youfish, you may want to fish around 4 or 5 times in each square before

moving on. Magikarp and Feebas CAN and WILL appear on the


37/317

same tile,along with Tentacool and Carvanha. I would estimate that the

chancesof finding a Feebas are 40-60%, assuming the given square actually

supplies a Feebas.

Question: HOORAY, FEEBAS I HAVE. WHAT PURPOSE DOES ITSERVE?

Answer: Feebas is like Magikarp that it evolves from a sucky creatureinto a

powerful one. Feebas, unlike Magikarp, can actually learntechniques.

This is mainly because Feebas is a lot harder to evolve. Use the31-35 berries (whichever makes Dry and something else) and makePokeBlocks like whoa. Feebas requires 170 Beauty points to evolve.

You can't tell by yourself, but the Dry+ berry is best. Only three orfour should be needed. Once you think Feebas has 170 Beauty, level

itup. If it doesn't evolve, you still need to feed it more. If it won'teat, you screwed up somewhere, and you need to start over with abrand new Feebas. I suggest breeding.

Milotic, Feebas' evolution, is pretty solid as a Water-type. Itlearns Mirror Coat and Recover, which is always nice. It also has arespectable Special Defense stat, which means it can survive a

coupleweakness hits.

Question: WHERE IS THE NAME RATER?

Answer: Slateport City, in the building to the left of the Pokemon

Center.

Question: WHERE IS THE MOVE DELETER?

Answer: Lilycove City, in the house to the right of the DepartmentStore.

Question: WHERE IS THE MOVE TUTOR, THE ONE THAT KNOWSEVERYTHING?

Answer: Fallarbor Town, west of the Battle Tent.


38/317

Question: I NEED THE _____ ROD, WHERE IS IT?

Answer: Old Rod - Dewford Town.

Good Rod - Fisherman east of Mauville, just after the water.Super Rod - Mossdeep City.

Question: WHERE CAN I GET A BAGON?

Answer: Bagon is in Meteor Falls. You need Waterfall to reach her, andshe

only appears in the spot where you get TM02, Dragon Claw.

Question: I NEED THE DIG TM! WHERE CAN I GET ONE?

Answer: Nowhere. There's only one Dig TM in the entire game. Nowhold on a

second. Don't hang yourself just yet. There IS hope, if you've gotpatience. There are only two Pokemon in Emerald that can

naturallylearn Dig: Trapinch and Nincada. They learn Dig at Levels 41 and

45,respectively. Don't e-mail asking me if I possibly missed one, those

two are it as far as Hoenn is concerned. However, those with FRLGcan

catch a Diglett in Diglett's Cave. They already know Dig.

Question: HOW DO I GET AZURILL?

Answer: Breed two Marill. Make the male hold the Sea Incense, found inMt.

Pyre. You need to ascend the tower from the inside, then drop

throughthe bottom hole to get them.

Question: HOW DO I GET WYNAUT?

Answer: There are two ways. One is to hatch the egg the old woman inLavaridge gives you. The other is to breed two Wobbuffet, and havethe male hold the Lax Incense, also found in Mt. Pyre. Seeinstructions on the Sea Incense to get the Lax Incense...it's on thefloor above it.


39/317

Question: I WANT ANOTHER MASTER BALL. HOW DO I GO ABOUTGETTING ONE?

Answer: Win the lottery. No, seriously. Once each day, you can go to the

ground floor of the Lilycove City Department Store, and talk to thelady on the right. She will tell you that you can pick a Loto Ticket.If the numbers on the aforementioned ticket match the ID of any of

your Pokemon, you win a prize. Match all five numbers, and youwill

walk out of there one Master Ball richer (unless you drop it).

Question: WHAT DO I USE THE MASTER BALL ON? YOUCONVENIENTLY DID NOT SAY.

Answer: Sorry about that. Use it on the BZZT-colored dragon that roamsHoenn.

Question: WHAT IS MIRAGE ISLAND?

Answer: A mystical island found in the big empty space on Route 131.

Question: HOW DO I GET TO MIRAGE ISLAND?

Answer: There's a man in Pacifidlog Town in the house southeast of thePokemon Center who will tell you if he can see Mirage Island. If hesees it, it's there. Take each and every one of your Pokemon to thisman every single day until he sees Mirage Island. Then go splurge.

Question: WHAT IS ON MIRAGE ISLAND?

Answer: Wynaut. Lots and lots of Wynaut. Oh, and a Liechi Berry. It'sone of

a kind, so plant it and grow some more! In battle, it raises Attackwhen HP get low.

Question: I CANNOT FIND TM22, SOLARBEAM! WHERE IS IT?

Answer: The Safari Zone. See the Safari Zone Section for details.

Question: I SUCK AT FISHING, PLEASE EXPLAIN IT TO ME!

Answer: No more free fish in this game. No, they make you work for

your


40/317

Pokemon in this version. An improvement, if you ask me. Anyway,when

you fish, you will see a series of dots. When it says "Oh! A bite!",press A. If you're fast enough, you'll hook it and start a battle. If

you're too slow, you'll lose the fish and have to start again. Ifyou're not fast enough, but not too slow, you'll start with the dotsagain. Note that sometimes you won't get a bite.

Question: TIMER BALLS? REPEAT BALLS? WHERE DO I GET THOSE?

Answer: Head to the Rustboro side of Rusturf Tunnel and talk to theDevon

Researcher. He will give you a Repeat Ball, as well as tell you thatthey will now be selling them (as well as Timer Balls) in RustboroCity's PokeMart.

Question: NO ONE WILL REMATCH ME! WHY NOT?

Answer: It's random when someone wants to rematch you, but therematches

won't start until you defeat Norman.

Question: WHAT IS POKERUS?

Answer: You have been graced with the most awesome thing since theinvention

of held items, the Pokerus. Pokerus is shown as PKRS on theSummary

Screen (and only there), and you can find it where a status effectwould normally be shown (it'll only appear if there is no status).What it does is double EV points given from a particular battle. Forexample, for every Electrike your Pokemon slaughters, it gets 1

point

in Speed. If the slaughterer is infected with PKRS, it would receivedouble the points, or 2. Now let's say that this certain Pokemon isequipped with the Macho Brace for double points again, or 4. Thismeans that Electrike will give you 4 Speed points every time you

killit. Assuming all you run into is Electrike, and you always kill it inone shot, it would take you about 20-30 minutes to complete Speed

EV

training.

Question: POKERUS IS AWESOME! CAN I KEEP IT FOREVER?

Answer: All good things must come to an end. The same holds true for

PKRS.After a random amount of time (a few days at most, usually) thePKRS

will vanish. Those that were already infected with PKRS will have asmall black dot appear between the Ball that was used to catch it

andtheir Level. Those with the dot cannot be infected again. However,there is a way to preserve your PKRS: Simply get someone yougenerally don't really care about (in my case, a Lv.5 Azurill, which

will be how I refer to the sucker you infect), and infect them withPKRS. Drop it in the Box (mark it with all four marks so you caneasily find it) and let it sit there forever. It won't infect yourBox Pokemon, but the PKRS won't leave, either. Whenever you

havesomeone new to infect, bring out Azurill and infect the new guy.

Oncethat's done, drop it off again. It's usually helpful to infectmultiple Azurill so you don't ever have to worry about the PKRSmysteriously running out on you.

Question: MY GAME IS GLITCHED, SHEDINJA HAS ONLY 1 HP!

Answer: Nope. Whether you're Lv.1 or Lv.100, good ol' Sheddy willalways have

1 HP. This is to counter the fact that Shedinja's Ability preventsall damage except that done by one of its five weaknesses.

Question: WHAT ARE SHEDINJA'S WEAKNESSES?

Answer: Fire, Flying, Rock, Dark, and Ghost.

Question: CAN SHEDINJA BE KILLED BY SPECIAL CONDITIONS ANDEVIL STATUS EFFECTS?

Answer: Yes, but only if there's no damage involved (like Poisonpowderinstead of Poison Sting). Shedinja can also be killed by weather andStruggle.

Question: I CAUGHT A SHINY POKEMON! WHAT'S SO SPECIAL


42/317

ABOUT IT?

Answer: Nothing. It's a normal pokemon with a different color. ^_^

Question: HOW DID YOU GET YOUR COOL TEAM SO EARLY?

Answer: Can't you read? I traded them from my Ruby game. It says that!

More as I think of them... x_x

================2j. Game Options [howto]================

When you're on the file select screen, as well as when you open the mainmenu,the Options menu is available. This is an explanation of what everythingdoes.

1. Text Speed. Cycle left or right to change how fast text appears. Thedefault choice is Mid speed. To choose anything but'Fast' is insanity.

2. Battle Scene. Use this to decide if you want to see the attacks'animation (on) or not (off). 'On' is default. If you turnthis option off, the Pokemon will not animate.

3. Battle Style. You can choose to be able to switch out when you faintone of your foe's Pokemon (Switch) or sit there and wait,like in Colosseum and Link Battles (Set). The Switchoption is default.

4. Sound. You can choose to hear the sound through one speaker(Monaural) or two (Stereo). Of course, unless you'rewearing headphones, this option's useless.

5. Button Mode. Have L and R function as left and right, respectively,in

menu screens and boxes (LR), or have the L buttonfunction as A (L=A). 'Normal' is default, which makesboth buttons do nothing.

6. Frame. Choose one of 20 borders to be used for all text boxesand menus. Type 1 is default.

The very last option is Cancel. Use that or press B to exit.

===================3. Welcome to Hoenn [wasup]===================

Major Objectives----------------

* Meet the locals.* Have your first battle with your first Pokemon.* "Practice" with your rival.* Gain the ability to run and leave home.

Watch the brand-new introduction. Press Start on the title screen tocome tothe main menu. Once there, you can choose to start now and customizelater, or

just go into your options right now.

If there is no save file, or you wish to start a new game to overwrite apreviously saved game, select "New Game." Professor Birch will appearand he

will introduce himself and Pokemon. You will then be asked to chooseyourcharacter's gender. There's no law that says men have to play as Brendanand

women are stuck being May, so pick whichever character you like,decked out in

their spiffy new outfits. After that, you will need to name yourself.Whoeveryou don't choose will end up being your rival.

Professor Birch will finish his little speech, and let you get started.

You start the game in the back of your moving truck. You're the new kidintown! After a few seconds, the truck will stop. Before we get going, let'sget

acquainted with the main menu. Bring it up by pressing Start.

The first option is for your pack. Since this is the start of your adventure,it's empty. You'll be filling it up throughout your journey.

The choice below that is your name. This is where you go to see yourTrainerID, how many Poke Dollars (referred to henceforth as 'money') youcurrentlyhave, and how many Badges you've earned. Press A to see the back - theentirething's blank... for now. Press B Button to flip it back to the front, orpress

A or Start to exit.

The next selection is the most important one - Save. Use this to save yourprogress. If you don't, you'll regret it.

Below Save is Options. You can change the various options of the game.We'vealready covered that area, but if you go back to the top of this document,

youcan find the Game Options section shortcut. Use that to review theoptions and

their different uses.

When the truck stops, leave by moving right. Your mother greets you andtakes you inside, where two Vigoroth are helping you move in.

Go upstairs and examine the clock. Set the time, and make sure you'reaccurate;

you can't reset it. After that, go to your PC. Select "Withdraw Item," thentake the Potion. Go downstairs and your mother will tell you to quickly

come tothe television. It's a news report on Petalburg Gym, and maybe yourfather, theGym Leader there, will be on! Oh, nope. Guess we're too late. Your mom

willsuggest you go next door to meet one of your dad's friends, ProfessorBirch.

You're not one to refuse the requests of your mother, so get moving.

Upon entry, May's mother will welcome you and tell you that her

daughter is

Torchic is a Fire-type, but gains a Fighting-type when it evolves intoCombusken. Torchic is the #1 choice for most players, and is therecommendedchoice for beginners, in this writer's opinion. While Torchic has the

hardesttime fighting alone against the first Gym, it has type advantages against avariety of types, making it easy to clear the game.

Mudkip is pure Water, and gets a Ground-type upon evolution. Mudkipalso has aneasy time against the first Gym. Only three of 17 types resist Water, sothatgives it a good edge against opponents, almost always being able to do atleastnormal damage.

Each of these Pokemon evolve at Lv.16, and again at Lv.36. Make yourchoice andstart your battle against Zigzagoon, Lv.2.

Zigzagoon is Lv.2, so it should die in two hits or so. If your Pokemonwoulddie from Zigzagoon's attack, it will flee, so don't worry about losing.

Select"Attack," then Pound (if you have Treecko), Tackle (Mudkip), or Scratch(Torchic). Gain experience points.

========================3b. The Adventure Begins [wstnw]========================

Birch will take you back to his lab, and will allow you to keep the

Pokemon youused earlier. Give it a nickname if you wish (ten characters maximum).He'llforce you to go visit May on Route 103, so she can teach you what itmeans tobe a Pokemon Trainer. Sweet. Let's get going, shall we?

You have unlocked the Pokemon sub-menu. Use this menu to view yourPokemon'sstatus or command one of them to use an out-of-battle technique.

===============3c. Oldale Town [wtsos]===============

o-----------------------o Oldale Town isn't far from Littleroot, and there's| OLDALE TOWN SHOP LIST | not a whole lot to do here. If you speakto the man

shopkeeper will give you a free Premier Ball. This has the same catch rateas aPoke Ball, but it looks prettier. Eleven Poke Balls for the price of ten! Notabad deal. Remember, you have to buy _exactly_ ten, not multiples of it.

You can't leave west because some yahoo is sketching the footprints of ararePokemon. Whatever. Go north instead, to Route 103.

will make Pound do major damage. To somewhat counter Leer, useGrowl.

Treecko-havers can use Leer to help increase Pound's damage. If Torchic

usesGrowl, continue using Leer so your attacks don't do piddle damage.

Remember, you have Potions at your disposal. Don't hesitate to usethem!

================3e. Leaving Home [psout]================

May will tell you to go home. Follow her through Route 103, OldaleTown, andRoute 101. Get to the Pokemon Lab, and Professor Birch will bestow thePokedexupon you. In a nutshell, the Pokedex records Pokemon data.

You have unlocked the Pokedex sub-menu. Use this menu to viewinformation(owned Pokemon only), compare sizes (owned Pokemon only), hear

cries, and seethe location of all Pokemon you've encountered.

May will also give you five Poke Balls so you can catch Pokemon of yourown.Oldale Town's Poke Mart will now carry Poke Balls.

You're free to go, but wait! One last thing. Whether you talk to her or shetalks to you, your mom will give you the Running Shoes. Press and hold B

Buttonto dash. Be careful, though! If your Pokemon are weak and you're tryingtosneak past a Trainer who isn't facing you, be sure to walk, not run! If yourunpast a Trainer, the Trainer will face you, catch you, and fight you if youhaven't defeated them already.

Now go! Get out of this miserable town!

4. The First Badge [stbaj]==================

Major Objectives

----------------

* Make it to Petalburg City.* Watch how a Pokemon is caught.* Get through the woods and enter Rustboro City.* Earn your first Badge.

You can catch Pokemon of your own, now that you have Poke Balls! Thegeneralstrategy for catching any Pokemon is to use your Pokemon's moves toknock theHP of the wild Pokemon to a low level (shown by a red HP bar). Oncethere, youcan use different types of Poke Balls to try to catch the Pokemon. Easy,huh?Of course, better Poke Balls make it easier to catch Pokemon that arenormallyeasy to catch. For example, if you tried to catch a Zigzagoon at full HP

with a

Poke Ball, you would probably fail. If you tried to catch that sameZigzagoon

with an Ultra Ball, chances are you will succeed. Level matters, but not alot.Unless you cheat to get 1000 Master Balls, low-level legendaries are still

justas hard to catch as their legitimate counterparts. On with the adventure.

Run, run, run through Route 101, and head west out of Oldale, now that

thatguy's done sketching his feet. All that time, wasted. Bah. You'll find yourfirst real Trainer battles here.

To Allen's left lie some berries. You can pick these berries, plant andwatersome more, and come back later to get more berries. You don't have a

There's a Potion south of Tiana. Don't leave it there.

==================4a. Petalburg City [dadeo]==================

o--------------------------o Welcome. There isn't a whole lot to do excepttry| PETALBURG CITY SHOP LIST | to leave via the west exit, but a person

thereo--------------------------o will stop you. He tells you that all new Trainers| Poke Ball...........$200 | first check if a town or city has a Gym. It just| Potion..............$300 | so happens that Petalburg City does have its very| Antidote............$100 | own Gym, so he will escort you to the Gym'sdoor.| Parlyz Heal.........$200 | Head inside and you will meet the Gym Leader,

Don't we get a say in this?

Yeah, sure, whatever. Follow Wally back onto Route 102, where he willencountera Ralts. Watch him battle and capture the Ralts. Overjoyed, he will take

youback to the Gym and return the Zigzagoon to Norman. He will thenleave, and youare free to do the same after a few more words from Dad. You two willbattlesomeday, but not at this time.

On your way out of the city, a guy in sunglasses will come up to you andpromptly diss you. We'd love to throttle this punk who dares to belittlethe

future Champion, but he takes off before we get a chance to. Leave westto thefirst part of Route 104.
