The wild Pokémon in Rock Tunnel tend to attack more often than their above-ground cousins, and if you're being attacked every few steps, it may take you awhile to reach medical attention. For that reason, it's a good idea to bring either a Pokémon that knows Dig, or plenty of Escape Ropes just in case you need to make a quick getaway. If you don't have either of those, this would be a good time to try Repel, which keeps weak Pokémon at bay.
If your starter Pokémon was Bulbasaur or Squirtle you'll have a much easier time. Bring a few Ethers, Potions, and maybe a Revive or two to make sure you can get through in one trip.
You'll have a very difficult time, however, avoiding the many trainers lurking in the shadows. You'll have to use Flash if you want to see where you're going in here. It's possible to proceed without it, but you'll probably want the light so you can avoid some of this area's tedious, difficult trainer encounters. If you want to avoid a battle, walk a path that's far away from the trainer or that's out of the trainer's line of sight.
