#244 Entei
|
These three Pokémon can’t be found in a specific
location in the Johto map. They’re always prancing around the wild
grasses (not caves) in Johto. You’ll have to search around to find
them. Once you run across one, it’ll be registered in your
Pokédex. You can keep track of its location by selecting
"AREA" on its Pokédex entry page.
To get a chance to meet them, go to the Burned Tower in Ecruteak
City. Break the rock in the way and fall down the little hole. Walk
up the stairs and they will awaken and scatter.
These Level 40 Pokémon will never attack you, as they
always run away from your sight on the first turn. Fortunately,
when you damage it it’ll stay damaged to make catching it easier.
If you knock them out however, they are gone for good.
A strategy to make them easier to find is to use Repel and place
a Level 39 Pokémon on the top of your party.

Lugia |

Lugia wants to fight! |
Go to Olivine City and surf south trying to stay as far to the
right as you can. There are 4 entrances to the Whirl Caves where
Lugia is so if you follow the wall the first one you come to is the
one you need to enter. Once inside go to the right and choose the
top path when it comes to a fork. Now you’ll make your way to a
waterfall, go down it, then surf up and you should find Lugia
swimming in the water.
Lugia is also level 40 and will give you 1257 experience points
if you beat it. Again, using the Master Ball at this time isn’t
wise.

|
Getting Lugia in Gold |
Talk to the man on the east side of Pewter City to get a Silver
Wing, which allows you to get Lugia in the Gold version. Just go to
the place where you find Lugia in Silver. However, this Lugia is
Level 70, so it’s wise to use the Master Ball. |
|
Ho-Oh |

Ho-Oh wants to fight! |
Go back to Ecruteak City and go into the entry house to Tin
Tower. Go in all the stairs and you’ll eventually come to a tower.
Go inside, work your way through the maze inside, and once you make
it to the roof you’ll find Ho-Oh.
You should save your game before fighting Ho-Oh, there is only
one. Ho-Oh is only level 40 so using the Master Ball isn’t a good
idea.
(L40 gender-unknown, Sacred Fire, Safeguard, Gust, Recover, holding
Sacred Ash)

Getting Ho-Oh in Silver |
Talk to the man on the east side of Pewter City to get a
Rainbow Wing, which allows you to get Ho-Oh in the Silver version.
Just go to the place where you find Ho-Oh in Gold. However, this
Ho-Oh is Level 70, so it’s wise to use the Master Ball. |

Tyrogue |

#236 Tyrogue |
Tyrogue is pretty well hidden in Mt. Mortar (map) which is
between Ecruteak City and Mahogany Town. The hope is that you’ll be able
to find him with these pictures. And remember, you must only bring
up to 5 Pokémon with you or you won’t be able to take
Tyrogue with you. You will need Pokémon with Flash, Surf,
and Waterfall to reach Tyrogue.
Tyrogue can evolve into Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, or Hitmontop
depending on its stats. If Tyrogue’s Attack is higher than its
Defense it will evolve into Hitmonlee. If its Defense is higher
than its Attack - Hitmonchan. Tyrogue will evolve into Hitmontop
when its Attack and Defense are equal.

Surf east of Ecruteak City, and enter the middle entrance of Mt.
Mortar, shown here. |

Use Flash to illuminate the cave. Surf on the water east of the
entrance, and head north, past the waterfall. |

Go through this door, and navigate the natural maze on the next
floor. |

You’ll have to find this ladder which is the end of the maze. Go
through it. |

The next part is simple. Just go right, up, and around to find this
ladder. |

Defeat the Karate King to get Tyrogue. |
You can also find Marill in Mt. Mortar, but you’ll have a difficult
time finding one. |
|
Lapras |
Deep in Union Cave, every Friday, you can find a lone Lapras in
the water. |
Traded Pokémon |
Aerodactyl |
You can get an Aerodactyl in the game by giving a Chansey to
the girl on Route 14. You can find Chansey on the grass nearby, but
they’re very rare. |

Slowking |

#199 Slowking |
When you let a Slowpoke hold the King’s Rock and then trade it,
it will evolve into Slowking.
You can find the King’s Rock in the Slowpoke Well east of Azalea
Town. You’ll need Pokémon that know Surf and Strength to get
to the man who will give the King’s Rock.

Politoed |

#186 Politoed |
When you let a Poliwhirl hold the King’s Rock and then trade
it, it will evolve into Politoed.

held by a wild or traded Pokémon, like Poliwag.
