Set a Course for the Johto Region!Ahead of you is an epic journey through the Johto region. It is a land consumed by turmoil, a place where new and old collide. What Pokmon will you meet? What events await you? Let the grand adventure begin!


To Contents

PrologueIn Pokmon FireRed and Pokmon LeafGreen versions...

One day, a youth from Pallet Town was called to meet Professor Oak, a renowned Pokmon researcher.

When the youth arrived at Professor Oaks Pokmon Lab, a wonderful proposal awaited.

There are three Pokmon here... You can have one. Go on, choose!

So, the youth chose between Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, picking the Pokmon that seemed best. Then along came a rivalBlue.

To Contents

Blue immediately challenged the youth to a Pokmon Battle. But the youth defeated Blue, showing great skill in doing so.

After seeing how well the youth and that Pokmon battled, Professor Oak knew he had found a great talent. The Professor then gave the youth an important mission.

That mission was to complete the Pokdex, a task that would require traveling through the entire Kanto region and catching all of the 150 kinds of Pokmon said to live there! With a heart full of passion, the youth set out on the journey.


5

To Contents

The youth had two goals in mind. The first was, of course, to complete the Pokdex. The other goal was to defeat Pokmon Gym Leaders throughout the Kanto region, triumph over the Pokmon League, and become the Pokmon League Champion!

The road ahead would be long indeed. But the youth threw Pok Balls, caught Pokmon, andalong with new friendsbegan to make this dream a reality.

6


To Contents

At the first Gym, the youth defeated the Pewter City Gym LeaderBrock.

Then, at the second Gym, the youth defeated the Cerulean City Gym LeaderMisty.

And at the third Gym, the youth defeated the Vermilion City Gym LeaderLt. Surge! Trusting in the strength of the Pokmon, the youth overcame each Gym Leader who stood in the way. But before long, a dark presence cast its shadow across this journey...


7

To Contents

That dark presence was Team Rocketan evil organization that used Pokmon to do its dirty work as it plotted world domination.

Team Rocket had even done away with a Marowak in Lavender Town, leaving Trainers there heartbroken.

The youth, along with those Pokmon, decided to put a stop to Team Rockets crimes.

8


To Contents

Team Rocket had opened a Game Corner in Celadon City to raise money, and the youth discovered the Rocket Hideout concealed in its basement.

Gathering courage, the youth snuck into the hideout. Team Rocket was no match for the youth, whose bravery was fueled by good intentions, and step by step the youth approached the heart of the hideout.

Deep inside the hideout, the youth faced off against Giovanni, the Team Rocket Boss. Giovannis Pokmon were known for their overwhelming strength...but still the youth pushed the Pokmons powers to the limit and defeated Team Rockets wicked leader.


9

To Contents

With Team Rocket defeated, the youths glorious adventure resumed. Now the youth could do things like play the Pok Flute to wake a sleeping Snorlax or travel the Cycling Road on a Bicycle!

At the fourth Gym, the youth defeated the Celadon City Gym LeaderErika.

10


To Contents

At the fifth Gym, the youth defeated the Fuchsia City Gym LeaderKoga!

But the youths string of victories was once again cut short by Team Rocket...

Team Rocket had taken over Saffron City and occupied Silph Co. (the Silph Company) right at its center.

Once again, the youth battled Giovanni, the Team Rocket Boss. By now, the youth had grown so much that Giovanni was no match for the youths team! This time, Giovanni admitted defeat and declared Team Rocket disbanded!


11

To Contents

Now the youth was unstoppable, defeating Gyms left and right!

At the sixth Gym, the youth defeated the Saffron City Gym LeaderSabrina.

At the seventh Gym, the youth defeated the Cinnabar Island Gym LeaderBlaine! But on reaching the last Gymthe Viridian City Gymthe youths heart skipped a beat. The Gym Leader was none other than Giovanni, who planned to revive Team Rocket. The youths victory was never in doubt in the final showdown with Giovanni. With a passion for justice and trust in Pokmon, the youth crushed Giovannis villainous ambitions.

12


To Contents

Eventually, after emerging from the long and arduous Victory Road, the youth reached the Pokmon League. At long last, it was time to fulfill that early dream.

The battles with the Elite Four were far from easy, and at times, the Pokmon League Champion nearly overwhelmed the youth. But the youth believed in those Pokmon, and fought with determination. And finally, victory was theirs!

Now, three years later, another youth sets out for adventure!13

Use types to increase attack damageUnder the right conditions, your moves will do at least 1.5 times more damage than usual. If you can keep dishing out that kind of damage, victory is sure to be within reach. There are several factors that determine increases in attack damage, but the three major ones are listed below.

Basic techniques to increase damage1 Use moves of the same type as the userWhen a Pokmon uses moves of its own type, those moves inict 50% more damage.

Overall strength is the product of six statsEach Pokmons overall strength depends on individual statistics, such as Attack or Defense. Six different stats indicate a Pokmons prociency in different areas. To raise a strong Pokmon, youll need to understand how each stat works.

The six statsStats affecting physical moves:

HPThe Pokmons health. If attacks reduce its HP to 0, the Pokmon faints.

SpeedThe Pokmons attack speed. The higher the number, the more likely it is that the Pokmon will strike rst.

Stats affecting special moves:

Attack Winning StrategiesThe higher this stat is, the more damage the Pokmon does with physical moves.

Sp. AttackThe higher this stat is, the more damage the Pokmon does with special moves.

DefenseThe higher this stat is, the less damage the Pokmon takes from physical moves.

Sp. DefenseThe higher this stat is, the less damage the Pokmon takes from special moves.

Stats also have an effect on the three kinds of movesMoves belong to one of three kindsphysical, special, or statusand theres an important connection between these move categories and a Pokmons stats. For instance, a Pokmon with high Attack will do the most damage if it uses physical moves.

The three kinds of movesPhysicalMoves that make direct contact with the opponent, such as Iron Tail and Slam, are considered physical moves.

SpecialSpecial moves are ones like Surf and Flamethrower, which dont bring the user into direct contact with the foe.

StatusMoves like the weatherchanging Rain Dance or moves that alter a users or foes stats are considered status moves.

Give Pokmon items to holdEach Pokmon can hold a single item. Some held items have an effect in battle, and you can make them a key part of your strategy. The Shell Bell, for instance, heals 1/8 of the damage received for the Pokmon holding it.

Examples of useful held itemsShell Bell Heals 1/8 of damage received Quick Claw Allows user to strike rst BrightPowder Raises evasion Kings Rock Foe may inch when physical attack moves are used Lum Berry User can use it to heal a status condition Amulet Coin Doubles prize money earned if user enters battle, even for a turn


Example: Building a team around Totodile!Totodile is weak against Grass-type moves. You can cover for that with Ponyta, which is strong against Grass-type Pokmon. Then again, Ponyta is weak against Ground-type moves. So use Bellsprout, which is strong against Ground types. Totodiles Water-type moves will put out any Fire types that threaten Bellsprout. Strong
