Tips

  • Press the hidden switch behind the poster in the Game Corner to open the Rocket Hideout, where you get the Silph Scope and Lift Key.
  • Game Corner prizes differ by version: FireRed has Scyther, LeafGreen has Pinsir, and the other Pokémon prizes change in level and cost.
  • Collect a free Eevee from the Condominiums roof room, and get the Tea from the woman on 1F for the Saffron guards.
  • On the Department Store roof, trade drinks for TM16 Light Screen, TM20 Safeguard and TM33 Reflect.
  • Erika's Gym is full of Grass types, so Fire, Ice and Flying moves help.
