'''''In Pewter City, you will fight Brock, your first Pokémon Gym Leader.  The Pokémon he uses in battle are strong.  If necessary, build up the experience of your own Pokémon by having battles in the wild.  Before you do either, visit the Pokémon Center in Pewter City, so if your Pokémon faint in battle, you'll resume your journey there, instead of far away.'''''
Pewter City is where you find your first gym challenge, in which you'll be able to earn your first badge.

__TOC__
If you try to leave town to the East, you'll be sent to deal with the town's trainer, Brock, at the Gym in the middle of town, below the Museum.  Until you've bested him, you're stuck here.

It'll cost you [[File:Pokebuck.png]]50 to get into the Museum (the large building in the North part of town), and while there's lots of interesting exhibits, nothing here will help you directly.  The good stuff is in the back, but that way is blocked by one of those annoying plants...  You'll have to come back later.

In Pewter City, you will battle Brock, your first Pokémon Gym Leader. You won't be able to advance further into the game until you beat him, so go for the Gym as soon as possible. If necessary, build up the experience of your Pokémon through battles in the wild. Before you do either, visit the Pokémon Center in Pewter City, so if all of your Pokémon faint in battle, you'll resume your journey there instead of far away in Viridian City.


Brock and his Junior Trainer use Rock and Ground type Pokémon, which are weak to Grass and Water. If you picked {{bp|Squirtle}} or {{bp|Bulbasaur}} to start, you should have an easy time of it, but not quite if you picked {{bp|Charmander}}. There are several ways to defeat Brock without Squirtle or Bulbasaur:


* The easiest way to defeat Brock with Charmander as your starter is by using {{bp|Mankey}}. It learns the Fighting type move Low Kick at level 6, which will take down Brock's Pokémon in one or two hits since Rock type Pokémon are weak against Fighting type attacks. A Mankey can be caught on [[../Route 22/]].
* Another way is to level Charmander up so it can win the fight through superior strength. At level 13 it learns the Steel type move Metal Claw, which is super effective against Rock types. Note that Rock type attacks are super effective against Fire type Pokémon so make sure you're stocked up on potions first. Critical hits can happen any time, so heal often!
* Another way to deal with Brock is to catch a {{bp|Caterpie}} in Viridian Forest and evolve it to {{bp|Butterfree}} so that it learns Confusion, a Psychic type attack. Though it isn't super effective against Rock, it still does high damage since Geodude's and Onix's Special Defense stats are very low. Note however that just like Charmander, Butterfree's Bug/Flying type is weak against Rock attacks. The downside to this plan is that Butterfree isn't going to be very useful later in the game, save for completing your Pokédex.


Once you defeat Brock, he'll give you '''TM39''' which can teach a Pokémon the {{bpm|Rock Tomb}} attack technique. He'll also give you his '''Boulder Badge''', which grants your Pokémon a small power boost and allows you to use Flash (once you have HM05) outside of battle. Additionally, you will get a '''TM/HM Case''', which allows you to store your TMs and HMs without occupying any more space in your gear bag.
Brock and his Junior Trainer use Rock- and Ground-type Pokémon, which are weak to Grass and Water. If you picked {{bp|Squirtle}} or {{bp|Bulbasaur}} to start, you should have an easy time of it, but if you picked {{bp|Charmander}}, you will have problems. There are several ways to defeat Brock without Squirtle or Bulbasaur:


==Science Museum==
*Level Charmander up so it can win the fight through superior strength. At level 13 it will learn Metal Claw, a Steel-type move, which is super effective against Rock-types. Note that Rock-type attacks are super effective against Fire-type Pokémon so make sure you're stocked up on potions first. Critical hits can happen any time, so heal often!
It'll cost you [[File:Pokebuck.png]]50 to get into the Museum (the large building in the North part of town). It's inexpensive and its exhibits build up the story in the game, namely regarding Mt. Moon and fossil Pokémon, which is pretty interesting if you try to tie the many dots together. The more practical part of the museum is in its back, although access to it is blocked at this point and you'll have to come back later.
*Rock-type Pokémon are also weak against Fighting-type, so using {{bp|Mankey}} isn't bad idea. It learns Low Kick move at level 6. Mankeys can be found on route 22.
*Catch a Caterpie at Viridian Forest and evolve it to Butterfree. When evolved to Butterfree, it learns Confusion, a Psychic-type attack. Though it isn't super effective against Rock, it still does major damage since Geodude's and Onix's Special Defense stats are very low. Note that Butterfree (being (Bug/Flying type) is very weak against Rock attacks.


Once you have Cut, you'll get the '''Old Amber''' from a scientist who is interested in extracting Pokémon DNA and will ask you to take it to a research institution. In addition, one of the other scientists is a '''Move Tutor''' that will teach one of your Pokémon {{bpm|Seismic Toss}}!
If you defeat Brock, he'll give you '''TM 39''' (The Rock Tomb attack technique) and his '''Boulder Badge''', which grants your Pokémon a small power boost and allows you to use Flash (once you have HM 05). Additionally, you will get a '''TM/HM Case''', which allows you to store your TMs and HMs without occupying any more space in your gear bag.
