When you start the game, Dr. Oak will show up and talk to you about Pokémon. He then asks you your name. The first option will be RED or BLUE depending on your version, or you can change it to your preference. He'll next introduce your childhood rival, whose name he has forgotten. You will again be given the option of selecting a preset name, or providing a custom name for your rival. The first option will be the opposite of the version you're playing: BLUE on Red Version, and RED on Blue Version.

You will start your journey in Pallet Town to prove you are the world's greatest Pokémon trainer.

Walkthrough pages[edit]

Pokémon is a deep and complicated game, and each page is packed with as much useful information as possible.

The probability of running into certain Pokémon varies wildly from area to area and version to version. The percentages listed on each page suggest how likely each Pokémon is going to be to get in each version. They are organized by version (Red, Blue, and/or Yellow) and area.

Similarly, you'll run into a variety of trainers and bosses as you progress through the various routes and dungeons. They will challenge you whenever you cross their line of vision. To help you determine whether it's a fight you can win, or even a fight worth fighting, each trainer's name, Pokémon, and the amount of money they hold is listed in a table in each section.

As new Pokémon become available, you'll find little profiles on each. These profiles aren't designed to give you background on the Pokémon, just to give you an evaluation of whether they're worth using, and maybe some tips on how to use them correctly. As there are many ways to progress through the game, certain Pokémon may be more or less useful than what the profiles suggest, so experimenting is recommended.
