Next, go north to Saffron City. The Magnet Train in this city is down because of a problem with the Power Plant. Go to the gym, get through the warp spots, and fight Sabrina for the Marshbadge.

Sabrina L46 Espeon- Sand-attack, Psychic L46 Mr. Mime- Psychic, Reflect, Baton Pass L48 Alakazam- Psychic, Reflect

After defeating her, you get the Marshbadge from her.

Next to the gym is a Fighting Dojo, where you can find a Focus Band. Also in Saffron is Mr. Psychic’s house. Talk to him to get TM29 (Psychic).

Go east to Lavender Town.

Lavender Town has a Radio Tower, but the radio station is down because of the Power Plant. Hmm, the Power Plant. Head north, through the Rock Tunnel, continue north, and surf through the water until you reach the Power Plant.

A thief broke into the Plant and took an important part of the electrical generator, rendering it useless. Talk to the Manager in the generator, then try to leave the plant. You’ll be told that a shady character has been spotted in Cerulean City. Go west (through Route 9) to Cerulean City.

In Cerulean, enter the gym and a Rocket will bump in you. (He is a foreigner.) The gym is empty. Inspect the pool as shown on the picture on the left, and you’ll find a Machine Part, the missing piece of the Power Plant’s generator. When you find the Part, go north.

Route 25 is like Nugget Bridge all over again. Defeat all 6 (actually, seven) trainers to win a Nugget. Afterward, near the Sea Cottage, you’ll find Misty. Looks like she’s in love. She’ll return to her gym.

In the Sea Cottage, is Bill’s grandfather. If you give him a Pokémon that he describes, he’ll give you a special item.

Go back to Cerulean City.

In the Power Plant, talk to the manager to return the missing part, and he’ll give you TM07 (Zap Cannon).

Next, go to Saffron City and visit Copycat’s house. Go upstairs and talk to the girl in the room named Copycat. She’ll tell you about the doll she lost. Now, go to Vermilion City and visit the Pokémon Fan Club, above the Vermilion Gym. Talk to the chubby man on the left side of the table to get Copycat’s Pok Doll, labeled "Lost Item".

Return to Copycat’s house, speak to her, and you hand her the doll. In return, she gives you a Pass to go on the Magnet Train.

The Magnet Train allows you to get from Kanto to Johto and back, lightning fast. Terminals are found in Saffron City in Kanto, and in Goldenrod City in Johto.

Visit the Fan Club in Vermilion City. Talk to the Chairman and listen to him going on about his Pokémon. He’ll soon give you a Rare Candy for waiting patiently.

Fly to Lavender Town, and go to the Radio Tower. The man in the hat will give you an Expn Card, which attaches to your Pokégear and allows you to tune in to Kanto’s radio stations.

The Name Rater can be found in Lavender Town.

Take the road west from Saffron City to Celadon City.

In Celadon, defeat Erika for the Marshbadge. But first, get some items. At the roof of Celadon Mansion, talk to the man to get TM03 (Curse). There are Grimers in the water in the city, surprisingly. The nickname for the Game Corner is nicknamed, "The Playground for Everybody."

Erika L42 Tangela- Bind, Sleep Powder, Giga Drain L42 Jumpluff- Leech Seed, Giga Drain L46 Victreebel- L46 Bellossom-

As well as the Rainbowbadge you’ll receive for defeating Erika, you’ll also get TM19 (Giga Drain). After that, go west, through Cycling Road, to Fuchsia City.

Since the Warden has left, the Safari Zone is closed. The only thing you can do is to fight Koga’s daughter Janine in the Gym. Janine inherits her father’s gym. In the gym, you’ll find not only invisible walls, but Janine lookalikes. The real Janine is the one in the lower left: "I’m sorry to disappoint you... I’m only joking!"

Janine L36 Crobat- Wing Attack, Confuse Ray L36 Weezing- Toxic, Smog L36 Weezing- L33 Ariados- L39 Venomoth- Double Team
