'''This ship caters to some of the world's most renowned Pokémon trainers. In fact, the S.S. Anne is on its annual Pokémon cruise, where amateurs and professionals meet for a series of duels. Though not a trainer himself, the captain will give you Cut (HM 01), which will allow you to hack through the bush that blocks your path to the Vermilion City Gym.'''

When you talk to the guard near the Vermilion City harbor, flash your S.S. Ticket to him stationed at the docks, and you'll be allowed onto the massive cruise liner.

If you want to get straight down to business, take stairway C, then stairway E all the way to the Captain's cabin. But be forewarned: your rival is after the same thing, and he'll be ready for a battle when you two cross paths when you're near the Captain's cabin.

The rest of the ship is completely optional, but you may find it worth your while to explore a little and spend time battling to grind out some experience points. An important thing to remember is that if you don't first do the rival battle and see the captain, you can go on and off at your leisure. Also, stop in the kitchen (B) and root through the trash for a '''Great Ball'''. '''TM08''' can be located at the fourth room left from the entrance. The TM contains '''Body Slam''', a Normal-type move which does above-average damage and has a 30% chance of paralysis to a target. Many Pokémon can learn this excellent move.

===Rival Battle #4===
===Rival Battle #4===
Your rival makes another appearance and demands another battle. This battle should be very easy if you know what to do. While you had Routes 24, 25, and 6, plus Cerulean Gym and the rest of the S.S. Anne, to raise your Pokémon some 5-6 levels from where they were after the last fight, your rival raised his about two apiece. And he didn't even add anything.
What this means is that your strategy for all versions remains basically the same. Use Pikachu on the bird, Mankey in Yellow against the Normals, etc. However, you should have added three more Pokémon since that fight: a Grass-type (Bellsprout/Oddish), Diglett and Kadabra (by evolving Abra). As such, you can use a new strategy, assuming all your Pokémon are L22+.

Pidgeotto leads. Pikachu defeats it with a Thundershock or two, same as always. The next one is the biggest threat: his Abra evolved, which means it can actually hurt you this time. As Kadabra, it has a lot of power to sweep your team with its STAB, {{bp|Confusion}}, thanks to its high special stat. However, Kadabra's main drawback is that it is generally weak, defensively. Fearow is up to the task, fortunately; it should be faster, for starters, and it has Peck and Fury Attack running off of a high Attack hitting a very low Defense. Just attack with Fearow and K.O. it quickly. Raticate is next, and while it still has the obnoxious Hyper Fang move, it has ceased to be a noteworthy threat. Use a fast, hard-hitting Pokémon (such as Kadabra or Fearow) to beat it in one hit, before it can start being annoying. Finally, the starter also evolved, but the strategy didn't need to evolve with it. Use Fearow (Peck) or Kadabra (Confusion) on Ivysaur, Geodude (or Sandshrew in Blue) on Charmeleon, and Bellsprout/Oddish/Pikachu (Vine Whip/Absorb/Thundershock) on Wartortle. If you've already gone to Diglett's Cave to the east of town, you can also use Diglett (Dig) on Raticate and Charmeleon.
