Written by Joeno for PKMN.NET, and it's inevitably one of the three best things ever. The other two being sliced bread, and the computer game "Missile Command". |
Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow. The games that started it all. And here's the fully updated, ever great PKMN.NET walkthrough for it. Anyway, as the game starts, you either see a Pokemon battle (Red and blue), or a Pikachu in action (Yellow). After that, to continue the game, you choose New Game, after which Professor Oak appears, giving a speech about the world of Pokemon. After naming yourself and your rival, you appear in
Pallet Town
Or rather, your bedroom in the afore mentioned town, where Shades of journey await! If you're bored, you can play the SNES, but that's not going to help you become a Pokemon Master. Take the potion out of your computer, and go downstairs. Again, you can waste time watching TV, but when you talk to your mother, you learn of a more important quest - you should speak to Prof Oak! Wave goodbye to your mom, and go out. After checking his lab, you'll notice Prof Oak is not there, and when you look further, he's nowhere to be found! However, when you decide to go on your own Pokemon journey, entering Route 1, he suddenly walks to you, stopping you. In Yellow, you are now attacked by a Pikachu (How did that end up there?), which Oak catches. In all games, he now takes you back to his lab. Now, you get to choose your Pokemon...
Pokémon | Recommendation |
Bulbasaur | Bulbasaur is a good Pokemon to start with, effective against the first two gyms. However, later in the game, his usefullness decreases, and because of its Poison-type, it's virtually useless in serious battles. |
Charmander | Charmander is hard to use in the beginning of the game, being ineffective against the first two gym leaders. It can come in useful later on, however, and it's pretty useful if you ever trade it to the GSC series. Still not too great. |
Squirtle | Squirtle is what is best referred to as a solid Pokemon. It's in between Bulbasaur and Charmander in the beginning of the game, and grows out to be a pretty good Water Pokemon in the game. Unfortunately, there are a lot of pretty good Water Pokemon in the game. |
Get your starter from Prof Oak! |
Of course, you only get this choice in Red and Blue. After this, your rival picks the Pokemon whose type is strong against that of your Pokemon. In Yellow, when you are about to pick up the Pokeball, your rival pushes you away, taking the Pokemon, after which you get Pikachu from Oak. When you try to walk away, your rival challenges you.

Base Money: 35 |
Strategy:
Your first battle! Just keep using your damaging move, and use your potion if needed. If you win (and who wouldn't?) you'll level up, and get some money.
In Yellow, the outcome of this battles also decides what Eeveelution your rival will get:
Battle in Oak's lab Battle on Route 23* | Won | Lost |
Won | Jolteon | Flareon |
Lost | Vaporeon | Vaporeon |
*This is only the battle your rival appears in before you defeat Brock.
Your Pokemon is automatically healed after this battle. If you need healing in the future, you can get some by your mom. But for now, go north to
Route 1
Route 1 Pokemon | Yellow | Red | Blue |
Pidgey | Lots | Lots | Lots |
Rattata | Lots | Lots | Lots |
The wonders of Route 1 |
Simple route. Zigzag around the ledges to get to Viridian City in the north. Don't raise your levels too much yet if you want to catch Pokemon around here, but don't avoid them at all costs either. If you're badly hurt, go back to your mom. Don't forget to pick up your free potion!
