Tips

  • Several trainers wait on the island (a Team Rocket grunt, a Fisherman and Swimmers), so heal before wading in.
  • Pick up the PP Up item ball and search for the hidden Star Piece and Net Ball.
  • Sis and Bro Ava and Geb fight as a double battle with Poliwhirl and Starmie, so Electric and Grass moves are useful.
  • There is no grass, so wild Pokémon come from surfing and fishing; Horsea and Qwilfish are FireRed, Krabby and Remoraid are LeafGreen.
  • Altering Cave is entered from the island, so go there when you want a cave to explore.
