Pokemon Red Version solve - Platform: Gameboy Advance Submitted by: Divydeep Agarwal POKEMON RED WALKTHROUGH ---------------------- Pallet Town ----------- This the starting place of the game. Your mom will tell you that Professor Oak wants you. Try to leave the town and Professor Oak will come get you. He leads you to his lab, where you will be able to choose your first Pokémon. There are Bulbasaur, a plant-type Pokémon; Charmander, a fire-type Pokémon; and Squirtle, and water-type Pokémon. Your rival, John, will pick up another Pokémon which is stronger. When you try to leave, John will challenge you to a Pokémon duel.Your first Pokémon will be level 5 to start with, so if you keep it strong, it will be a very good asset.Better get a squirtle. Go back to your house. On the PC, you can withdraw a Potion from your hard drive. Your mom will, starting now, give free rests to you and your Pokemon, acting as a pokemon center without the computer. Route 1 ------- This leads north to Viridian city. You'll encounter Pidgeys and Ratattas. Defeat some for experience and try to raise at lease two levels for your Pokemon. A boy on the way explains that he is a Poke Mart worker at Viridian City, and he will give you a free Potion as a sample. Viridian City ------------- Talk to the Shop clerk and then head back to Pallet Town with the Parcel. Give it to Professor Oak and he will give you and John each a Pokédex, which is an electronic encyclopedia. He will tell you of his dream to complete the pokedex to you.John will act arrogant and walk off, but you can get a Town Map from his sister.Go back to the city. The gym's doors are locked, and they won't unlock for a very long time until you've beaten the other 7 trainers in the game. Buy some Poke Balls and talk to the old man to learn how to capture Pokemon. A boy will talk about caterpillar Pokemon. About the old man, if you go left from him, you will see a tree. Go around the other side and you will get a POTION. If you go west towards the Pokemon HQ, you will fight John. He captured another Pokemon. After you fight him, he will tell you that you need Badges to go through. Around here, you can also pick up a few Nidorans if you want. Route 2 ------- Pick up a Pidgey and/or a Ratatta. You can get higher-level ones in the future, but if you train hard they will grow stronger better than the higher-leveled ones. You can also get Caterpies and Weedles. Viridian Forest --------------- First of all, right when you get in, there is a man next to a tree. Go above the man, look at the tree, and press A for an Antidote. On your way through Viridian Forest, you should pick up a Pikachu ,a Caterpie, and a Weedle. Don't get Kakunas and Metapods. There are a few easy trainers in the forest, they are Bug-catchers and use bugs, so fire works very well on them. The first has a pair of caterpillars at Lv. 6 (Caterpie/Weedle). The second has 2 Lv. 7 Weedles and a Lv. 7 Kakuna. The final trainer has a Lv. 9 Weedle. There is a Poke Ball, Anidote and a Potion in the forest. By the way, the Pikachu is a VERY good asset because its only weakness is against ground Pokemon. It will learn awesome attacks later on as well. Don't turn it into Raichu using ThunderStone, I suggest. Pewter City (Boulderbadge) ----------- The Gym here starts out with a JR. Trainer with a Lv. 11 Diglett and Lv. 11 Sandshrew. You probably never met these two, but a good hint is that Diglett will be strong against your Pikachu, so use water on it. Water also works well on the Sandshrew. Brock, the Gym Leader has a Lv .12 Geodude and a Lv. 14 Onix, 2 Rock-type Pokémon. Water works very well on these. Be careful for the Onix's BIND and BIDE. When it does BIDE, I suggest either beating it very quickly or do non-damaging attacks like TAIL WHIP or GROWL, so you are debilitating him without taking damage. If you defeat him, Brock will congraulate you and give you BIDE, TM 34. I suggest giving it to a pokemon with high hit points, and it is best used against pokemon with high defense and high offense, because the damage done doesn't care about the enemy's defense at all. You can look around the museum, but the $50 it costs is unreasonable, since you can't get anything there except looking at fossils of Aerodactyl and Kabutops, two extinct pokemon which you might get later. Route 3 ------- This leads east from Pewter City to Mt.Moon. Get a Spearow if you want. But it is very crucial for a collector to pick up a Jigglypuff, since this is the only place you'll see it. There are also many trainers along the way for money and experience. I suggest you to train the Pikachu and your original Pokemon strongly. You will meet two new kinds of trainers: Youngster and Lass. The former likes pokemon such as Rattatas, the latter likes "cute" Pokémon like Clefairies and Jigglypuffs. Mt. Moon -------- Heal up at the Poke Center. A man will sell a Lv.5 Magikarp to you. It seems weak but will evolve into the powerful Gyarados at Lv.20. See if it is worth the $500 he wants. Don't worry if you don't get it, though, since you can get it later by fishing for it. Time to walk into the cave! You will meet two new kinds of trainers.Super Nerds who likes nerd stuff like Voltorbs or Magnemites, and Hikers with rock Pokémon like Geodude. There are also many pokemons in the cave, Zubat and Geodude are more common than Paras and Clefairies. After walking in, take a left and you'll get TM12, which contains WATER GUN. Going up will yield a Potion and a Bug-catcher. Now, you can go east futher into the cave with a few trainers loafing around. Going south at the fork will let you take a Potion, a Rare Candy and an Escape Rope . Under the first stairwell, there is a Rocket (gang members with a variety of good Pokémon), along with a HP-UP that increases a Pokémon's HEALTH permanently. Keep on going, past a Lass with a pair of Lv. 11 plant Pokémon (Bellsprout/Oddish), and go into the second staircase. Another Rocket is here, guarding TM01 (MEGA PUNCH). You will also find an Ether hidden in a solitary rock. Going up, left, and finally to a staircase guarded by a Hiker. Above him is the first piece of the Moon Stone, so don't forget to get that. Enter the staircase and fight 3 Rockets in a row and finally a Super Nerd with a Grimer, a Voltorb, and a Koffing. Here you can get one of two fossils. You can choose the Helix Fossil or the Dome Fossil. The Helix Fossil will become Omanyte and the Dome Fossil will become Kabuto when you take them to the Pokémon Laboratory on Cinnabar Island. Route 4 ------- Out already? After you cross the last ledge, you are stuck and can not go back. So take the TM04 on the way first. Hop along the edges gradually to the right until you get to a city. Cerulean City (Cascadebadge) ------------- The Gym here is owned by Misty, who has a Staryu and Starmie. Pikachu can make short work of both of them if you trained it well. But watch out for Starmie's BUBBLEBEAM, a strong water attack that does a lot of damage and may reduce speed. Go ahead and beat her and get the BUBBLEBEAM TM. Go north and fight John again. He now has a Lv. 18 Pideotto, a Lv. 15 Abra, a Lv. 15 Rattata, and whatever he started with. On the way you will fight 5 trainers in a row for a prize, only to find out that it was a plan by TEAM ROCKET to recruit new members. You'll refuse the ROCKET's order and fight him, getting a Nugget (useless object, sell it for $5000) if you win. Go east here, through Route 25. You will get the S.S. Anne Ticket from Bill after a few more trainers. Getting back in, Bill will share information about Eevee and its evolutions. You can trade a Poliwhirl for Jynx here. The Jynx can only be gotten this way. Polywhirls evolve from Poliwags and will be very easy to get in the future. A guy will tell you the badge's uses. Behind his house is a hidden rare candy. It is located in the middle of the yard. You can get Oddish and Abras here. (Route 24 and (Route 25) The Abra is unique to this city, so get one. Authough I usually get two because one could be traded away later for a Mr. Mime. Abra only has the TELEPORT move, but when it evolves at Lv.16 to a Kadabra, it will get more attacks. It is also a good "utility" Pokémon because Teleport can run away from battles and return you to the last Poke Center. After that, go to the house previously blocked by a policeman. Fight the ROCKET and he will give you the TM 28. Onward south, there is a Pokémon Daycare Center. The man there will care for one Pokémon and raise its level while you are gone. At the end of the road, there is a big building which is a gate house for Saffron City. At this point, the guard will not let you through. The smaller building is the entrance of underground passage to Vermilion City. You can trade a Nidoran (m) for a Nidoran (f) here. The person at the underground passage speaks of hidden items.A Full Restore and a X special. Keep your eye out for them! Route 11 -------- Don't forget to get the exclusive Drowzee here. It is one of the first, and one of the best psychic Pokémon. The only places to capture him are by Cerulean, Vermillion, Celadon, or Lavender. His PAY DAY attack will give you money in battle, equal to 2 times your level. Vermilion City (Thunderbadge) -------------- Here you can get the Bike Voucher by visiting the Pokémon Fan Club. It will let you get the bike in Cerulean City for free. There is also an old man who will give you an Old Rod, which could fish for Magikarps only. A third thing is that a boy will trade a Far Fetch'd, a "sword-fighting" bird Pokemon for a Spearow. This is the only place you can get one. After that, go to S.S. Anne to the south. You can get on the boat with the S.S. Ticket. On the boat, there are many trainers and items. You'll find your first Great Ball here, in a trash can of all places. John will be here with a different appearence. After you beat him you can talk to the captain. He will give you HM 01 (cut) after you help him through his seasickness. Then boat will take off when you exit. Don't forget to pick up BODY SLAM, a awesome fighting move which can cause paralysis. The HM is very important. It will now let you do things you couldn't do before, like going back to Pallet Town, or getting Old Amber in the back door to Pewter City's museum. The Diglett's cave to the east has some high-level Digletts and Dugtrios. If you get them they will help you a lot for the boss. Now, teach HM 01 to a Plant-type Pokémon. The move is even good in battle sometimes! Go to the southwest of the city, CUT a bush, and go to the Gym. The leader there has a electric lock door. You have to find one switch, and another switch which is always BESIDE it. Defeat Lt. Surge, the gym leader, who has a Voltorb, a Pikachu and a Raichu. Digletts and Dugtrios can defeat them easily, as well as anyone you gave your DIG technique to. Talk to him afterwards to get TM 24, which contains THUNDERBOLT, a powerful version of THUNDERSHOCK. One of the Prof. Oaks' aids is also in a building to the east. He will give you the Itemfinder if you have more than 30 Pokémon. This item finds items. But not too important really. By him is a guy who will trade a Nidorino for your Nidorina. After this, go into the Diglett's cave again. It will lead you near Pewter city and you can do things you couldn't do before. A person will trade a Mr. Mime for an Abra. So if you have a spare one, trade it. (This is the only way to get a Mr. Mime) You can also get HM 05 (flash) from one of Prof. Oak's aides if you caught more than 10 Pokémon. Then go back and up to Cerulean City. From there go east into the Rock Tunnel. Rock Tunnel ----------- It is very dark inside, you need a Pokémon equipped with HM 05. Pick up an Onix and a Machop here if you want. It is quite long and there are quite a few Pokemaniacs and Miners in there. Luckily, a Poke Center is right by the entrance to get you started up. Lavender Town ------------- In the northeast section of the town there is a big building, Pokémon Tower. But you can't do much there now. There is, however, a man who will rename your Pokémon. You'll hear a lot of stories. Mainly about a Cubone who lost his mother, a kind Mr.Fuji's disappearence, and the ghosts in the Pokémon Tower. To the south are many fishermen eager for battle. Let them have their fun. This is a good chance to train electric and plant pokemons. That includes Pikachu. One of the fisherman actually has 5 pokemons (all Magikarps). Route 8 ------- Near the city, you will find Gowlithes, Ekans, and Mankeys. After some collecting, go west through the tunnel to Celadon City. train a while here. Celadon City (Rainbowbadge) ------------ Celadon is the biggest city in the whole game. You can get an Eevee from a back entrance to the Game Freak, Inc. building. You can buy stones from the Mart to evolve him. Fire Stone: Vulpix -> Ninetales Eevee -> Flareon Growlithe -> Arcanine Leaf Stone: Weepinbell - Victreebell Gloom - Vilepume Exeggute - Exeggutor Water Stone: Staryu - Starmie Shelder - Cloyester Poliwhirl - Poliwrath Eevee - Vaporean Thunder Stone: Pikachu - Raichu Eevee - Jolteon Andm although if you can't buy it, you can do all this with the Moon Stones: Jigglypuff - Wigglytuff Clefairy - Clefable Nidorina - Nidoqueen Nidorino - Nidoking The Gym leader Erika uses plant Pokémon. Fire is useful here. After the battle, you will recieve a TM with MEGA DRAIN. Give it to your favorite plant Pokémon. This useful move does a lot of damage and gives half of it to your Pokémon as health. Walk around for a bit. There are many interesting things in Celadon. 1.Store ------- You can buy stones, items, TMs, and drinks. Give 3 kinds of drinks to the girl on the last floor, since she will give you a TM for each drink. Get an extra drink, you'll need it. The TMs a man will sell - TM32 DOUBLE TEAM $1000 TM33 REFLECT $1000 TM02 RAZOR WIND $2000 TM07 HORN DRILL $2000 TM37 EGG BOMB $2000 TM01 MEGA PUNCH $3000 TM05 MEGA KICK $3000 TM09 TAKE DOWN $3000 TM37 SUBMISSION $3000 2.Game Corner ------------- Play the slot machines here, but you need Coin Case and coins to play. The Coin Case is in one of the other buildings. Some of the people playing will give you coins. You can also buy coins, 50 of them for 1000. Some coins are also hidden. You can trade coins for Pokémon/TMs next door. A list of Pokémon that could be bought there: (First window) Abra - 180 Clefairy - 500 Nidorina (RED) - 1200 (Second window) Scyther (RED) - 5500 Dratini - 2800 Porygon - 9999 Talk to the ROCKET by the picture to reveal a secret entrance - the ROCKET hideout. Go down and fight some ROCKETS. Giovanni, the boss, has the Silph Scope. Lavender Town ------------- After getting it, go back to Pokémon Tower and prepare for a long journey. Channelers are hanging around possessed by ghost Pokémon. Fighting Pokémon are useless here, because ghosts are immune to physical attacks. There are a lot of ghosts around, but they can be identified with the Silph Scope. Catch a Gastly and a Cubone here. There is a floor with healing tiles for you to heal up, so you can build good experience there. All the Pokémon are around levels 20 - 25. Soon, you will fight Cubone's mother, a Lv.30 Marowak. You can't capture her, but if you win, her soul will be freed. You step up to the last floor, and realize that TEAM ROCKET is behind this. Beat them and you can now go back to Celadon after rescuing Mr. Fuji and getting the Poke Flute from him. Celadon City ------------ Go West from Celadon City. On this road, a Snorlax is sleeping, and you must wake him up. If you have the Poke Flute, you can wake him up and fight him. Cut down a nearby bush and go up and left. Go through the building and into the house you find. The girl inside will give you HM 02 (Fly). When used in battle, does some damage. And when used outside, you can go to any city visited by you at the city's Pokecenter Cycling Road ------------ This leads to Fuschia City. This is a cycling road, so you will go down automatically. There are a few Riders and Cueballs on the way also. The former usually has nasty Pokémon and the latter with fighting Pokémon. It is quite a nice ride, if your Pokémon could survive the poison. When you see a gate house, a boy inside will trade a Lickitung for a Slowbro. This is the only place you can get a Slowbro. Around here, you can begin to catch Dittos. Use a Magikarp against it, let it transform, then it will be easy to catch. Fuschia City (Soulbadge) ------------ You can see many trainers if you go to the shore, the meadow, or east of the town. If you go east, and up, you will see a road leading to Lavender Town. Another Snorlax is on this road, so if you couldn't get the first one this is your only chance left to catch it. Go north, and you'll see a hut where the person will give you the Super Rod. Even more north will let you see that the city is connected to Lavender Town. Then go back to the city. Go north to the Safari Zone. You will get many items and unique Pokémon here. You can fish for Dratinis here, as opposed to the 2800 coins you need to pay for it in Celadon City. Either way, I rather pay the $500 for entering the Safari Zone, and I will still get more bang for the buck because I can capture other rare Pokémon. If you find the secret house, you'll be rewarded HM 03 (surf). If you give the Gold Teeth (also found in the safari zone) and give it to the warden, he will give you HM 04 (strength). Both of these are crucial to the game. A list of Safari Zone Pokémon: ------------------------------ Nidoran(male) Nidoran(female) _______ Overall, a good chance to collect Nidorans. Nidorino Nidorina Paras _______ The only other place for these is Mt. Moon. Parasect So if you see one, get it. Venonat Venomoth _______ You can get them later, but why not? Rhyhorn Doduo Chansey Kangashan Tauros _______ The real "rare" Pokémon. You can only get them Exeggute here. Chanseys are also available in the Unknown Syther Dungeon, but that is a long time later. If you think you're ready after you pick up a few more Pokémon. go challenge the boss Koga. His men are psychic Jugglers (who can call back Pokémon at will) and animal Tamers and he has Pokémon with skills of sleeping, paralyzing, and poisoning. If you beat him you'll get TOXIC, a strong poison attack that will do more damage with each additional poison hit. Now is the time to go through the gate to Saffron City. Remember, give a drink to one of the guards. In a house by the pond, you will get the Good Rod. It is the second most effective rod. Saffron City ------------ There are 2 Gyms in this city. In the gym on the left, you'll fight many BLACKBELTS. Since they have fighting Pokémon, your best bet is to use psychic Pokémon like Kadabra and Drowzee. Ghost Pokémon also works well because they are immune to physical moves. The best blackbelt will use two pokemons against you, a Hitmonchan and a Hitmonlee. After the final boss in the gym, he knows you are stronger and you can get Hitmonlee, the kicker, or Hitmonchan, the puncher. The other gym is blocked by a ROCKET though. You need to go to SILPH Company, the biggest building in Saffron City, and defeat all Rocket Gang members in it. Silph Co. (Marshbadge) --------- There are many Items and Rocket Gang members in here. You need to warp around quite often. If you get the Card Key, you can move more freely and get to the boss. After beating John , a man will give you Lapras. At the 11th floor, fight Giovanni and if you win, you will get the Master Ball. It has a 100% chance of catching. Now you have a choice at this point... either waste it on some arbitary Pokémon, or use it on crucial one-time Pokémon including: The Legendary Birds, Snorlax, and Mewtwo. The Birds are Lv.50 each and are very powerful in their own element, the Snorlax are Lv. 30 and are quite good, while Mewtwo is tHE perfect Pokémon and starts at Lv. 70.I think you just keep it ,dont use it and more I will tell later. Back to the city. Now you can enter Sabrina's Gym and fight her for the Marshbadge. There are Psychics and Channelers here, and you also need to warp around often. Watch out for psychic Pokémon and use bug or ghost Pokémon against them. She will give you PSYWAVE after the battle, a psychic attack. A girl living in a house to the left will trade TM31 for a Poke Doll. It contains MIMIC. Power Plant (optional) ----------- Cross the water by Cerulean City and SURF down and around to the Power Plant. There are lots of Electric Pokémon here. You can get Pikachus, Raichus, Voltorbs, Magnemites, and Electrabuzzes .(some Voltorbs are hidden as Poke Balls, they are Lv. 40 each! There is also an Lv.41 Electrode hidden as a Poke Ball) Near the end is Zapdos, the Legendary Electric Bird. Better try to catch it without MasterBall. Seafoam Islands (optional) --------------- Cross the water after you get to Fuschia City. Many Water Pokémon live here, (Seels, Shellders, Krabbys, Psyducks, etc.) You'll need STRENGTH and SURF. Articuno, the Legendary Ice Bird is found here only. Krabby's are pretty good. About the level in which they become Kinglers, they will learn the powerful 1-hit KO GILLOTINE move! Cinnabar Island (Volcanobadge) --------------- South of Pallet Town is Cinnabar Island. Enter the Pokémon Laboratory and get some new Pokémon. Depending on what fossil you got in Mt. Moon, you can get Kabuto or Omanyte. You can also get Aerodactyl if you picked up the Old Amber in Pewter City's museum. Three people there will trade your Raichu for an Electrode, your Venonat for a Tangela, or your Ponyta for a Seel. There is a Pokémon Mansion here with puzzles involving switches. Behind a pillar on the first level is the final piece of the Moon Stone. Read the text to find out about the mysterious Mewtwo Pokémon. Here you can get Grimer, Muk, Koffing, Ponyta, Magmar, etc. You will also get a key for the gym. The gym leader, a mad scientist named Blaine, uses fire Pokémon. Water works very well on them. If you win he will give you a very powerful fire attack (FIRE BLAST), and the seventh badge. Now you only have one more Gym left. Viridian City (Earthbadge) ------------- Here is the final Gym... (the Gym was locked before) The boss is non other than... Giovanni! He wants to use this place to get more ROCKET members. After beating him, go west to the Pokémon League HQ. Gary will be on the road again, challenging you for the final time. Pokémon League HQ ----------------- Very large building. You can get Dittos, Rhyhorns, and some other good Pokémon here. You also need all 8 badges so the guards will let you pass. Have a pokemon with surf ability as it is needed in here. Victory Road ------------ To pass here you will need the move STRENGTH, all the skills, and best Pokémon you have. There are TOUGH Pokémon here (Lv. 40 Marowaks, Lv. 40 Venonats etc.) and very skilled trainers. This is where you will also find Moltres, the Legendary Fire Bird. There are a lot of puzzles, and by the end you will probably be very worn-out. Indigo Plateau -------------- This is a Poké Center and a Poké Mart. Get all the things you need, pick your best 6 Pokémon, and go though the door at the top to fight the Elite Four, a group of the most powerful trainers ever. All their Pokémon are between lv. 50-65, so be prepared for some good fights. Personally, my best team against this (all well-trained, of course) are Blastoise, Exeggutor, Zapdos, Dugtrio, Nidoking, Dodrio. The first, Lorelei has a group of ice Pokémon. She starts with a Lv. 54 Dewgong, secondly a Lv. 53 Cloyester, then a Lv. 54 Slowbro. A Jynx (Lv. 56) follows the battle, and finishes off with a Lv. 56 Lapras.Better use Zapdos if you have. The second man Bruno has rock/fighting Pokémon. To be exact, he starts off with a Lv. 53 Onix. After that, he switches off to fighting and gets out a Lv. 55 Hitmonchan and then a Lv. 55 Hitmonlee. After the fighting duo, he gets a Lv. 56 Onix and finally his ace card, the Lv. 58 Machamp. Bring a water and a psychic/ghost Pokémon for this. (I suggest a Blastoise for rocks and Dugtrio for the others). The third lady Agatha has mind-controllers at her control. Kicking off with a Lv. 56 Gengar. Then, a Lv. 56 Golbat will try to CONFUSE you into submission. A lighter challenge (Lv. 55 Haunter) comes in afterwards. But a Lv. 58 Arbok comes out next, followed by a Lv. 60 Gengar. Remember,she is one of the only trainers who can call back Pokémon at will. Better use Dugtrio against her. The forth man Lance has awesome Dragons to fight you. He said he trained for a long time, no wonder he starts off with a Lv. 58 Gyarados. A pair of Lv. 56 Dragonairs follows the fight. A Lv. 60 Aerodatcytl next .Finally, he brings out his long-trained and VERY hard- to-get Lv. 62 Dragonite. Try using Blastoise or Nidoking. After 4 long, hard battles, you will realize that another had already defeated the Elite Four! Who is it?It is John! After he tells you of his ambition, you fight his 6 strong Pokémon with what is left of your six. He starts with a Lv. 61 Pidgeot. Then he calls an Lv. 59 Alakazam, followed by a Rhydon. He finishes off with Pokémon of fire, water, and plant types with them being Lv. 61, Lv. 63, and the last being Lv. 65 (his first pick in the game). His plant choice is Exeggutor, his Fire Choice is Arcanine, and his water choice is Gyarados. THE END !But the game continues and now you are in the Pallet Town again after seeing all those stupid things. Unknown Dungeon --------------- After you have beaten the Pokémon League, go back to Cerulean City. northwest of Cerulean City in a cave is Mewtwo, the best Pokémon there is (# 150). He is at lv. 70 and is at the end of a long way in the cave. There are Lv. 50s Pokémon from everywhere (Venomoths, Chanseys, Kadabras, Raichus, Magnitons, Marowaks, Hypnos, etc.). It is possible to catch Mewtwo without the Master Ball, but it is hard. He is no pushover and will do a lot of damage against you. He has Swift, Psychic, Recover, and Barrier at his command. The Quest Goes On..... ---------------------- There is always the quest of catching all 150 Pokémon. If you manage to do this, go to Celadon City for a nice surprise. Remember, you need to trade a lot to achieve this goal. Your Mark in History -------------------- You can now use the computers to connect to the Pokémon League. It will show pictures and statistics of the teams who won the game in a Hall Of Fame that looks pretty good and shows your Pokémon in winning glory. ---------- TM/HM LIST ---------- TM01 MEGA PUNCH - A strong fighting attack.

However, after (63&66) 65 Alakazam becomes (64&67) at level 16 and 28 respectively, they 66 Machop evolve by being traded to someone else! So, that means if 67 Machoke you want Alakazam or Machamp, you better get 68 Machamp a link cable and a friend! (RARE/UNCOMMON) Abras are only on Rt. 24/25, but Machops are in caves. 69 Bellsprout RED's race of plant Pokémon, matching Oddish, Gloom, 70 Weepinbell and Vileplume.
