Items

Hidden items sparkle with the Itemfinder.

Tips

• Voltorb is the most common grass Pokémon in both versions, while Ekans is exclusive to FireRed and Sandshrew exclusive to LeafGreen.
• Oak's Aide in the Route 10 Pokémon Center gives an Everstone once you have caught 20 Pokémon.
• Hidden items here include a Max Ether, a Super Potion and several berries, so use the Itemfinder if you have one.
• The Hikers and Poké Maniacs are tough for this stage of the game; PokéManiac Mark's Rhyhorn and Lickitung are the strongest team on the route.
• Fishing the river with a Good or Super Rod gives Horsea in FireRed and Krabby in LeafGreen as the main catch.
