Tips
- Four of Janine’s Gym trainers (Lass Alice, Lass Linda, Picnicker Cindy and Camper Barry) are disguised as Janine, so talk to each lookalike to find the real one.
- Janine’s Venomoth is her highest at Lv39 and both her Lv36 Weezing know Explosion; beating her earns the Soul Badge and TM06 Toxic.
- Boulders block Route 19 south of town until you first enter Route 20, so reach Cinnabar Island from Pallet Town via Route 21 first.
- Fishing in town gives Gyarados: 10% with the Good Rod (Lv20) and 30% with the Super Rod (Lv40).
- The berry tree at the top of town grows a Burnt Berry every day.
