I like the fact that we get to use Eevee and favorite part is that the no weird girls follow you like in Colosseum. but I didn't like the game THAT much. it was too easy. I would have finished it if it hadn't been for that memory card accident where my memory card deleted it's self and killed my save....

[omnibakemon]

I really liked it, mostly I liked the new areas, like Gateon Port, but ocne I got past there I was very disspleased. It was the exact same areas as before, only a tiny bit of change between them.

Copyright Info+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=============================================================================== 1. Introduction===============================================================================For what seems like an age, Pokemon has been a major franchise and a license toprint money for Nintendo. Considering the quality of the games has onlyevolved over time, they deserve it.Something to keep in mind is that this is a FAQ for Leaf Green ONLY. It can beused while playing Fire Red if you want to know where to go or what to do in aparticular dungeon, but due to the many specific Pokemon exclusive to LeafGreen, if you're playing Fire Red, you'll likely run into wild Pokemon liststhat don't match up with what you're encountering. So, basically, if you'vegot Leaf Green, read on. If it's Fire Red, read anyway, just don't count on usfor wild Pokemon data.-Contacting us-you can email relle at getrelle@yahoo.com, or me (Chris) atbbeltchris92@netscape.net. For team building, I would email BostonFuse51 forall movesets, email relle.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=============================================================================== 2. Updates===============================================================================1.00 - Submitting as complete. Woot. I will be moving on to BatenKaitos, so I'll be leaving any future updates to my co-author, BostonFuse51.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------1.01 - I added in a little update. In this update I added in anew section (Section 1.a) and added in a new credit. I also took out someunneeded information in the beginning about myself. Not much, but an update atthat.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=============================================================================== 3. Frequently Asked Questions===============================================================================For this section I will add in from time to time questions asked to me in e-mails, and questions that are commonly asked regularly. More on this section issoon to come.Question: How much does Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green cost?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green costs anywhere from 25-35 dollars. (Theprice depends upon the store you are buying from.)+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: How do I get into Saffron City?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: It is different in FireRed/Leaf Green. Instead of giving a drink to theguards you must go get the tea from the old lady in the first floor of theCeladon Mansion.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: How come I can't use Mystery Gift?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: This is different from the Mystery Gift in Gold/Silver/Crystal. Insteadof getting items and dolls you use this to get tickets for the Islands.Nintendo will announce a way to get this soon.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: What is the best way to catch pokemon in the Safari Zone?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: This one is tough. If you throw food at the wild pokemon, its chancesof staying and not fleeing increase. But doing this also decreases your chanceof catching the specific wild pokemon. If you throw a rock at the wild pokemon,the pokemon's chance of escaping increases. However, its catching ratio willslightly increase. So it depends on what you're more concerned about. Thepokemon running away, or you catching the pokemon.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: How can I get Espeon and Umbreon in this game?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: Since there is no day or night in this game, you cannot get either ofthem. To do this, trade your Eevee over to Ruby or Sapphire (you must fix thenetwork machine first), tame it until it happy enough, then when it is theright time, evolve it when you want to (daytime for Espeon and night forUmbreon). Then, trade it back.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: Is this game a new game or a remake of an older one?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: Fire Red and Leaf Green are remakes of the original red, blue, andgreen (Japanese) versions. It comes with better graphics, and much bettergameplay.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: Why can't enter Unknown Dungeon and fight the Elite Four again?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: You need to complete the mystery island quest, and repair the machinein the first island Pokemon Center.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: Is there any form of duplicating in this game?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: No there is not any duplicating, or cloning in this game. And, if youask me I like it better the no cheat way.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: Can I get Mew or Celebi in this game?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: No, you can not.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: What is the ultimate team?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: There is none. If you want the best team for you, I recommend choosingyour favorites and making this game a little bit of a challenge.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Question: I played the original red version a few years back and just pickedthis up because I thought it was just a version of red for the new gameboyswith better graphics and gameplay. It turns out there's all new races (steel,dark, etc) and moves, the TMs/HMs are different and there's like 400 pokemon?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer: Yes all original red/blue/green players the times have changed. Thereare a bunch of pokemon that include a clash between all of thegold/silver/crystal pokemon, and all of the original red/blue/green pokemon.There are many new things and updates, but look more into thegold/silver/crystal FAQs for more information on this. After all it's wherethe other half of the clash comes from!+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++===============================================================================4.

Immediately after this you are sucked into the game.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5a. Your Journey Begins-------------------------------------------------------------------------------When you are warped into this new pokemon world, you will see that you are inyour room. (In the upstairs area of your house). Go exploring around theroom if you want to, but there isn’t much to do.In order to get going go to the northeast area of your screen, and room. This,is one of the many pc's in the game, boot it up by pressing the A button. Itwill say "Chris booted up the pc." "What would you like to do?" On thisincoming little box, the options:Item StorageMailboxTurn offwill appear. Press the A button on the item storage option. In the nextlittle box there are another 3 options. They are:Withdraw itemDeposit itemCancelclick withdraw item. On the next page, click the A button on the optionpotion, and you already have a free potion in your updated bag. Press the Bbutton multiple times to exit out of your pc. Go downstairs, onto the mainfloor of your house. Talk to your mom, and she will seem very depressed thatyou are leaving on your journey, but supports you all the way. (What a coolmom!) She tells you that professor Oak is looking for you, and the fun starts.Leave through the south of the house, and of your screen, and get your firstsite of this fresh new world. Start to go north to the opening in the path ofbushes/trees, and professor Oak will abruptly stop you. He'll ramble again,then give you a choice of three Pokemon to take with you.Left-------------------------------------------------------------------------------BulbasaurEasy to raiseAdvantages: A great combination with a type of grass, and poison. A sleeper,and also has an underrated move: razor leaf. Will be a huge advantage to yourfirst three gym battles. (rock, water, and electric.) Grass is super affectiveagainst each.DisadvantagesAn easy to raise Pokemon, which great for beginners in the pokemon world.Bulbasaur is weak to 4/8 gyms throughout the game however which could be alittle blow to you.Right-------------------------------------------------------------------------------CharmanderRaise with patience.Advantages: Your only available fire Pokemon for a long time in the game.That's basically it except for he has probably the best third evolution out ofall three starters.Disadvantages: can't do hardly anything against the first two gyms. Not a goodchoice for beginners because of the first disadvantage. A good choice howeverfor those who have played the game before, and know how to use and train theirpokemon correctly.Middle-------------------------------------------------------------------------------SquirtleOne who is worth raising.Advantages: The average Pokemon for beginners and veterans. A great surfer tohave, and also, you won't have a chance to get this good of a water pokemonuntil very late in the game. Not a ton of weaknesses as a water type exceptfor the major two which are grass and electric.Disadvantages: In my opinion, it is the hardest starter to raise to raise, eventhough it is worth it in the long run because of its ability to surf, and alland all because it is a water type.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------For this file in the game, I chose to start off with Bulbasaur because of itsadvantages in the first three gyms, and also, I like to use its sleeppowder/razor leaf combonation in the game. However, there are other combos touse with all three other starters, and you are free to choose which one youwant as the leader of your team (for now).Right after you pick your partner in the adventure, the little complainer nowgets to pick his starter and teammate. Your archrival, will pick the superaffective Pokemon to you. So in simpler terms, your rival will pick:Your pick His pickBulbasaur CharmanderSquirtle BulbasaurCharmander SquirtleAfter both you and your rival pick your starters, and typically the leader ofyour team, start walking south, towards the exit of the Pokemon lab.But wait just one minute! Your Rival comes storming down like he's already aPokemon Master, and will challenge you to an ever-famous Pokemon battle! Youreally have no say in your choice, because it automatically draws you into thebattle. Let's show this guy who's boss!In every battle, at the beginning of it, look at the opening. For this battle,the opening is "Rival <your rivals name here> would like to battle." This maysound a bit corny, but it is really a great way to learn more about the traineryou are about to face, and what type of trainer he or she may be.In this battle, unlike the older versions of red, blue, and green, the gamewill give you a tutorial about battling with your Pokemon. I'll give you thetutorial as a quote on quote because this is a key essential to your Pokemonjourney to know how to fight pokemon battles.In the battle, the new help system will be introduced to you, first hand. Thisexplains that when you are stuck or need help at some specific spot in thegame, click the L, or the R trigger. Here you have all the help optionsimaginable, and you can basically get information, or find out about anythingin the game.Here we go. The four options displayed to you are Fight, Bag, Pokemon, andRun. Well, in this situation, of course, you want to choose the fight option.Select it, and you will see two attack options. (Later in the game, yourpokemon will learn new attacks and you will have to pick the four attacks bestsuited for the pokemon or the "moveset.") Regardless of your starter,just use the first attack in the menu over and over to win. If your attackmisses, or the rival's other starter gets more health than yours, you can usethat potion you got earlier to heal your hp (hit points) by 20. Beating thisfairly easy opponent will earn you enough experience points to grow one levelno matter which starter you selected.After the fun battle, you will earn $80 for your great batting. Also, yourrival will storm off, and exit the room. Dun...dun...dun. Now you are free togo, and start your Pokemon adventure...for real. Exit the lab, and let's go!Head north, out of your home called Pallet Town.------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5b. To the First Badge-------------------------------------------------------------------------------+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Route 1-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Now that you are free to leave the confines of Pallet town, start heading northout of the city, and into route one. In the game, there are special areas,like Mt. Moon, and Diglet's cave. There are also many cities, and towns in thegame. The last area, are routes. Routes are places in between towns, andspecial areas. This is the first route in the way of your journey.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Pokemon common on route 1-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Pidgey Lv's 2-4A Pokemon with a great third evolutional stage.Advantages: Pidgey is one of the first Pokemon you will encounter on yourpokemon adventure. It is a flying Pokemon, which will be a benefit in thelater, and earlier parts of the game. an get some great attacks later on.Disadvantages: You can't catch many pokemon yet. These guys have really lowlevels, and you can’t get much EXP or higher-levels out of the pokemon youbattle with to raise them up. This part of the game can go slower because youaren’t taking in those huge EXP boosts, but then again, you only need a littlebig of EXP to grow a level this early in the game.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rattata Lv's 2-4A Pokemon with some super duper attacks at an early level.Advantage: Well this isn't a very detailed advantages section, but Rattata, isjust an average Pokemon with some great attacks early on. Its attacks seem tobecome less powerful as it grows in levels.Disadvantage: A normal type Pokemon, isn't the best type in my opinion becausenormal type Pokemon do not have huge advantages, or disadvantages over othercertain types of Pokemon. They're squeezed in the middle!-------------------------------------------------------------------------------So, now that I have explained what to expect, all pokemon on the route, and howthey shape up so now let's cross it, shall we?Well, this one is basically easy to figure out, even for you beginners outthere. All that you have to do is continue heading north training up yourstarter. You will of course run into some Pidgeys, and Rattatas. By the timeyou are out of route one, the best hope is for your starter to be at least atlevel 8-10. In order to find wild Pokemon, search in the grass. If you startto run low on hp (hit points), you have two options. You can go north intoViridian City, and get your Pokemon healed fully...for free at the Pokemoncenter, or you can use a potion that you have (if you didn't use it in therival battle.) Go to the first guy you come to on route one, and he'll giveyou a free sample from the mart which is a potion. (So either way, you'll haveone.)So after leveling up, and then healing, and doing it all over again, for aspecific number of times, go up to your first town...Viridian City. When youfirst get here, go to the Pokemon Center. Get your Pokemon healed by talkingto Nurse Joy. (The woman behind the counter in the north of the room.) Shewill talk to you, and then after you say yes, she will give your Pokemon back tyou...fully healed. Viridian City-------------------------------------------------------------------------------In Viridian City, there are many beautiful sights for your eyes to feast upon.In this town there is a Pokemon Gym, but you are unable to get in because thedoor is locked. (More on this is later in the in the walkthrough.) Some othersights are the Pokemon Center where you go to get your team healed, the townmart, where many items to help you along your journey are sold, (do not gothere yet.) A house where a person is trying to memorize his notes. (notimportant in the most.) A house above the last house you went to where thenote memorizing is taking place, and a guy lying down blocking your way tothe north gate of the town.First things first however. Go to the west side of Viridian City into abasically open area. There is a boy/man here, but you do not need to talk tohim. Now do NOT go all the way to the west. Here, there is an opening to thenorth. Go through the tiny crack that you can just barley fit through. Gonorth, continuing up through it then go directly east when you can not go northany more. You will see a little tree type thingy. Go to the tree, and a pokeball will stop you from going any further. Click the A button, and that itemis yours. (It is a potion.) This is how you pick up items. (Note: Pick upitems by going up to them and pressing the A button.)Go back down to the flat, open area that you were just in after you get yourfree potion. Here, you will face your first crossroad in the game. You caneither go east to fight your Rival, or you could go west and not. But beforejust floundering east you must know that if you fight your rival now, youcannot fight him in the future when you come back to Viridian City. (Iwouldn't fight him because later in the game, he'll have better pokemon andmuch more EXP experience points.) So in my opinion I would not fighthim now, and choose to save it for later when he has some much better Pokemon.Of course, you can do whatever you want...it is your file, and your game.So, coming back into Viridian You might want to re-heal your Pokemon beforeYou do anything more in here, or in the game. After healing or doing moreexploring, head towards the northwest of the Viridian City. But wait just onedarn minute. This huge guy is lying at a horizontal angle blocking you frommoving on going north! Talk to the guy, and some of the people around him, andthey will claim that this dude always gets like that until he gets his morningcoffee. (Maybe he should try decaf.) Well of course we haven't done squat inthe game yet so never fear...the mart is here!That's right, now is your chance to take a little visit to Viridian City'smart. Walk into the building that says "Mart", and you will be abruptlybrought in with the guy asking the Mart Clerk: "Are you from Pallet town?"You can't answer this and automatically the guy will ask you to do this deedfor him. He claims that Professor Oak (the grandfather figure professor in thebeginning of the game) ordered this parcel, and he asks you to take it to him.Doing this however will get that bloody coffee addict out of the way! (Note:You must do this to move on in the game.) Back to Pallet Town-------------------------------------------------------------------------------So, once you receive Oak's parcel, go all the way back to Pallet town goingsouth, taking whichever route you want. As soon as you get back don't stop foranything, and go directly to Professor Oak's lab. Just walk right on in, andwalk right on up, and talk to him. After all the talking is done, and you giveOak the parcel, you are free to go.All right, after all of this walking, we're geared up, and ready to go. Let'shead up north once again back to Viridian City. Back to Viridian City-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Head Back North to Viridian City. You have nothing more to do here, so headnorth wear the horizontal guy was blocking the way once before. He'll explainthat he has had his coffee. After going through a fairly short conversationwith the guy, he will explain how to catch Pokemon. Watch this littletutorial, because it will help you to gain success in the game. (You need toknow how to catch pokemon.) After this, you can now go north. In this littlepatch of grass you can catch a different assortment of wild Pokemon. Thesewould be Rattata, Caterpie (a weak bug pokemon), and once in a while a Pidgey.I decided here to catch a wild Pidgey. Even though pidgeys might seem week,their third evolutional stage (Pidgeot) is really strong with some decent statsand some good moves. He is also a flyer, which will help you later on. Go allthe way until you see this building. Go north, and enter through it, and on theother side of the building you will come face to face with...------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4b-1.Viridian Forest-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Yes, we have finally made it to the Viridian Forest! Well without any furtherado, let's get started shall we? When you walk in, there is a man in front ofa rather large tree. You can talk to him if you would like but he won't wantto battle you, he will just tell you the Viridian forest is filled with bugs.After you finish talking to him go to the WEST of the tree. Western Side of Viridian Forest-------------------------------------------------------------------------------There is not much to do on the west side of the Viridian Forest. You can gonorthwest, into a fairly large patch of grass, and in there you can getyourself a poke ball. (Pick up the item by going up to it, and pressing the Abutton.) That's about it unless you think a certain Pokemon is common in thatarea and want to stay around trying to catch it. If not go back to the bigtree and head on over to the EAST side of Viridian Forest! Eastern Side of Viridian Forest-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Going as far east possible, you have to go into the large patch of grass. Inthe grass, you will find yet another potion. Start to head north of theViridian Forest. Probably without even noticing it you'll run into your veryfirst trainer!Trainers are fellow Pokemon owners. They raise their Pokemon, and always liketo battle them. Some of them might also even keep their Pokemon as pets!Some trainers are easier than other trainers, but do not worry, that's what Iam here for. Your first trainer is:+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Bug Catcher Rick (Payoff: $65)Pokemon (Level) Type Weakness(es) EXP-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Weedle (6) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 74Caterpie (6) Bug Fire, Flying, Rock 72After beating "Bug Catcher Rick," keep heading on to the north of ViridianForest through the grass, fighting wild Pokemon. Soon enough, you will bumpright into your next trainer.Bug Catcher Doug (Payoff: $84)Pokemon (Level) Type Weakness(es) EXP-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Weedle (7) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 78Kakuna (7) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 168Weedle (7) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 78After beating "Bug Catcher Doug," move onto the north again and you will findyourself a free antidote. These items cure poisons that other pokemon give youby using moves such as poison sting. If you continue going north, you will runinto some trees. Move to the west of these, then north again and you will findyour next trainer.Bug Catcher Anthony (Payoff: $96)Pokemon (Level) Type Weakness(es) EXP-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Caterpie (7) Bug Fire, Flying, Rock 78Caterpie (8) Bug Fire, Flying, Rock 84After beating "Bug Catcher Anthony," walk around him, and continue on yourmerry way westward. When you cannot go west anymore (a barrier of trees,blocking your way just like last time,) start heading south. It almostfeels closed in because you are walking between two rows of trees. Nowwhen you get down go west then north. It is pretty simple, all you're doingis going where your only option is to go. When you finish heading north, youwill find yourself another trainer.Bug Catcher Charlie (Payoff: $84)Pokemon (Level) Type Weakness(es) EXP-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Metapod (7) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 108Caterpie (7) Bug Fire, Flying, Rock 156Metapod (7) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 108After beating "Bug Catcher Charlie," Continue on your way going south. At thepoint where you can no longer go south anymore, head east, and then up to thenorthernTip of the forest. This is the last run on your way to the exit, so it isbound to be filled with tough trainers, with tough Pokemon. If your Pokemonare/is running low on hit points (your health,) you might want to be thinkingabout using a potion or another healing item, preparing for your hardest fightyet. If you don't have enough, you might want to go back to the ViridianPokemon Center. Go a trifle north you will run into...Bug Catcher Sammy (Payoff: $108)Pokemon (Level) Type Weakness(es) EXP-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Weedle (9) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 99Weedle (9) Bug/Poison Fire, Flying, Ground, Psychic, Rock 99+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++After beating "Bug Catcher Sammy," you are free to leave the confines ofViridian Forest. This is one of my favorite areas in the game, and it feelssad to leave, but it must be done! Walk on north out of the forest, go to thenorth exit of the building, and when you get out, may I be the first to welcomeyou to Pewter City.------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4b-2. Pewter City and Brock-------------------------------------------------------------------------------(In Pewter City, there aren't many places to catch wild Pokemon in the Route4/Mt.Moon area so don't look forward to go on a Pokemon catching spree.)As soon as you get to Pewter City please, do yourself a favor, and heal yourPokemon at the Pokemon Center here. You deserve it after all those toughbattles in the Viridian Forest. After healing, head out and get your firstreal view at Pewter City. There is not much to do in Pewter City at this pointin the game. So why don't we get ready to rumble? If you started with acharmander, and have no superior moves that are affective against rock, (whichis Brock the gym leader's favorite type of pokemon, and the type of pokemon hewill use in his pokemon gym,) so I suggest you stock up on potions and healingitems. In order to complete the game, you need to get all of the 8 pokemonbadges. You can get these by going into a Pokemon Gym, and beating the gymleader there.After you prepare for your first gym fight, head to the northwest of the city.Do not go to far north though, because you won't find the Pewter City gym. ThePokemon Gym is almost right above the poke center. Of course you can't get infrom the south, so go in from the north direction. It is hard to understand,but in the game it is much simpler than I think I make it up to be. In the gym,there is one trainer before the big boy "Brock." Brock if you haven't alreadyguessed is the gym leader. The trainer before Brock's status is...+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Camper Liam (Payoff: $220)Pokemon (Level) Type Weakness(es) EXP-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Geodude (10) Rock/Ground Fight, Steel, Grass 4x, Water 4x, 182 Ice, GroundSandshrew (11) Ground Grass, Water, Ice 218+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++After beating "Camper Liam, it is time for your first Gym battle.

After beating him, youwill receive Rock Tomb. (Rock Tomb is one of the many TMs in the game. TMsare attack moves that you can teach your pokemon artificially, and not justhave them learn it. Pokemon can't learn every TM however.) You might haveseen Brock's Onix use this Tm but if not it buries a Pokemon in rocks! It isa great TM for this point in the game, and is especially great against firePokemon.So, after getting over your utter excitement of beating Brock, it's time tomove on to a further part in the game. So once you beat him, walk out ofthe Pokemon Gym, and now you are officially...------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4c.
