Pokémon Gold and Silver/Route 32

'Many of the Trainers you'll meet up with on Route #32 will be using Water-type Pokémon, and the caves have lots of wild Rock-types, so it's best to move your Grass-type Pokémon to the top of your party. That way, you'll always have the advantage when a battle begins.'

The game plan
You need to cross the cave at the end of Route #32 to get Azalea Town. On the way, we'll pass the entrance to the Ruins of Alph. For now, catch some Pokémon, do some fishing, and keep heading south.

No more Mareep!
Up to this point, Crystal players have had the luxury of being able to catch every Pokémon from both the Gold and Silver versions. But Route #32 is the first area in which a Gold/Silver Pokémon has disappeared;, the beloved electric sheep, no longer wanders Route #32, or anywhere in Crystal.

You'll have to wait a long time before you get your first chance at an Electric Pokémon, so you might just want to trade for a Mareep with a friend who has Gold or Silver. They're very easy to find in both of those versions.

The Miracle Seed and TM 05
The north-most guy on the route will give you a Miracle Seed just for beating Falkner! When equipped, this nifty item powers up your Pokémon's Grass techniques. Come back when you learn Cut to get to the guy south of him on the ledge. He will give youTM 05 (Roar) for your trouble.

Calander Event #2: Ms. Friday
Every Friday, one of the Day siblings will be standing in the forest, waiting to talk to you. Like her sister Tuscany on Route #29, Frieda only appears once a week, on Fridays. She will present you with Poison Barb. When a Pokémon holds her gift, its Poison-type moves will be powered up.

Pick up the old rod and start fishing
Talk to the fisherman closest to the healing machine insde the Pokémon Center. He will offer you one of his fishing poles, the Old Rod. With the Old Rod, you can walk up to water and start fishing for Water-type Pokémon. Unlike the Old Rod in Red/Blue/Yellow, this Rod can catch something other than (although you will end up catching a lot of those). If you fish here now, you can net a, and if you trade numbers with Ralph on Route #32, he'll give you a call when the swarm. Outside of swarms, these rare fish can only be caught with a Super Rod.
