Hello, I'm Indigo and this is my video game walkthrough blog. I'm not amazing but I try my best. I mostly do rpg's because faster paced games are more difficult to screenshot, but that's mostly what I play to begin with so it works out well. Games are mostly going to be Nes/Snes/Gameboy/Gameboy Advance. I hope what I've done can be helpful!

Pokemon Red Version (Part VI)

Hidey-ho, Chikoritas. Last time: beating up war vets. This time: I don't really know, faffing about I guess?

On the other side of Diglett's cave, there is a house containing a boy who wants an Abra in exchange for a Mr. Mime. This Pokemon is probably my least favourite out of all first generation. But I made the trade anyway because I need to fill some more Pokedex pages.

South of the house past a forked tree you will find a larger building, and one of Professor Oak's aides is inside. If you have obtained at least 10 different kinds of Pokemon he will give you HM05 Flash. This is by far the most useless HM move. Teach it to a Pokemon who isn't a permanent member of your party, because HM moves cannot be deleted.  I went and taught it to the Mr. Mime I just received.

South a bit more you will find an item ball, which you may have seen from Route 2 way back before we headed into Viridian Forest. It contains an HP Up which is worth the wait, I suppose. Further down is a Moon Stone.


Back in the southwest corner of Viridian Ciy, cut down the tree and talk to this man to get TM42 Dream Eater.

Back in Pewter City, we can hack down this tree now to gain access to the rear portion of the museum. A scientist in here will give you the Old Amber, another fossil-like item that can be turned into the Rock/Flying Pokemon Aerodactyl. You'll want to store it in your PC for now.

We are done all the little side business available for now, so let's continue on. Our destination is east of Cerulean city, a route that is blocked off by a forked tree.

This contains TM30 Teleport, which is a move usually only Abra can learn. It will transport you back to the last Pokemon Center you visited. Don't worry about jumping down to get this either, there's a break over to the right that lets you get back up.

To be honest, I never even really use Ethers or Elixers. You may want to keep a few just in case, but I visit the Pokemon centers frequently enough that my Pokemon never really run out of pp. Backtrack and take the lower path.

Be warned here, Geodude of level 21 or higher will know Selfdestruct. It does a ton of damage and on top of that it faints, so if your Pokemon gets KO'd by it you get no experience. Use water or grass types to dispatch them quickly, although Dig works well, and they may even blow themselves up while your Pokemon is safe underground. Go back now and take the "straight" path, which loops back upward.

If you're looking to get as much exp as possible, make sure you turn left here and grab the trainer standing out in the middle of nowhere.

After this trainer go right and you will enter into a very small new route.

If you're going to do some training here, there is a Pokemon Center south of the patch of grass, just be warned that the level 17 Voltorb will know Sonic Boom.

I actually think that's the first Super Potion we've found so far. So hooray I suppose. Anyway, let's head into Rock Tunnel! Note that you will have a really rough time getting through here without Flash. It's not quite as frustrating as in future generations, because you can at least see the outline of the walls. However you won't be able to see trainers or ladders. I don't actually recall whether you can see item balls or not.

Rock Tunnel

Zubat || Poison / Flying

Right away there is a split in the path, but there is nothing to the right at all so head south past the trainer.

From here, it's a linear path to the ladder which leads down to the other floor.

Another split in the path, but the left is a dead end so once again go past the trainer.

North of here you will either have a choice of two ways to go, but either direction will have you fight a Hiker trainer.

Spr RG Hiker.png

Hiker ||  ¥875
Geodude Lv.25 || Rock / Ground || 460 exp

If you go left you will fight this one.

Machop Lv.20 || Fighting || 376 exp
Onix Lv.20 || Rock / Ground || 462 exp

If you go up you will face this trainer, though of course you could just fight them both. Either way, take the ladder in the northwest corner.

Back up on the ground floor you can once again either go east past one hiker trainer or south a ways and then east past another, but the option is always open to fight them both.

From here it's just a few squares east and then north, you can actually avoid this Hiker trainer if you really want to.

Back on the lower floor, head south (north is empty) and then at another split go left (further south is a dead end).
