On the 11th floor, Yellow players will have a skirmish with the laughably weak Jessie and James, and Red/Blue players will have to deal with one more Rocket. Then there's Giovanni... After you busted up his racket in [[../Celadon City/]], Giovanni moved his base to [[../Saffron City/]]. It's too bad for him you arrived in time to short-circuit his new scheme. Defeat Giovanni's {{bp|Nidorino}}, {{bp|Rhyhorn}}, {{bp|Nidoqueen}}, and {{bp|Kangaskhan}} (or {{bp|Persian}}, in the Yellow version) to rescue the Silph Co. President. Once again, a single level 43+ Kadabra can take care of them all.

He's not any tougher than your rival, but you'll definitely need to be in peak condition to stand a chance. Use Dig to warp back to the Pokémon Center, or retrace your steps and take the elevator up to Floor 9, where the girl will heal you. Once you've sent Giovanni running, the President of Silph Co. will be ecstatic that you interrupted his "meeting" with Giovanni. To reward you for breaking Team Rocket's hold on his company, he'll hook you up with the incredible '''Master Ball'''. This technological wonder will catch any Pokémon without fail, so be sure to save it for a special occasion (such as {{bp|Mewtwo}}). If your current box in Bill's PC was full when offered the Lapras, or your Bag was full for the Master Ball, the computer desk in this room can be used like a PC in a Pokémon Center to make some room. When you're finished, you can collect the items in the now Rocket-free lower floors.

Talk to the Silph Co. employee next to your rival after your fight for a well-deserved reward: a Water/Ice-type {{pokedex|Lapras}}. This is the only place you can get one in the game.

Lapras comes at a very low level of 15, making it very impractical to incorporate into your main team. In-game, you will be better served by picking up a Dewgong from Cinnabar or Cloyster from the Seafoam Islands. However, competitively, Lapras's excellent offensive power, ability to learn Thunderbolt, and absolutely incredible overall bulk put it in a class all its own above its fellow Ice/Water brethren. Even if you do not put it in your line up, carefully stash this gem in your box.
