Points of Interest

S.S Anne

There is a deck that leads to the S.S Anne ship, and you can get the HM01 Cut there. However, you must have the S.S ticket in order to get on it (you can get it in route 25 if you haven't gotten it yet).

Vermillion City Gym

You will fight Lt. Surge in this gym. You must have HM01 Cut in order to get in the gym. Furthermore, Lt. Surge is standing behind an electric field, and you must activate two electric switches (they look like trashcans) to open the field. Stand next to a switch and press A to activate it. The second switch is always next to the first switch. Finding the right combination is trial and error.

In this gym, trainers and the leader use Electric-type Pokémon. They are weak against Ground-type attacks and Electric-type attacks don't affect to Ground-type Pokémon, so using a Ground-type Pokémon isn't a bad idea.

Lt. Surge's Pokémon aren't anything special save for Raichu. It's fast and at somewhat high level. It also uses Double Team, which causes your attacks to miss more often.

  • If you own a Geodude, use it to beat the gym. Lt. Surge's Pokémon do laughable damage thanks to Geodude's immunity to Electric, resist to Normal and high Defense stat. Use Magnitude to defeat them.
  • Diglett is also very useful for beating the gym. It's fast and learns Magnitude too. Digletts can be found nearby in Diglett's Cave. It is highly recommended to use either of these two Pokémon.

Trade

The first is the trade in the orange roof house above the gym.
