Teach a Pokémon Headbutt (TM02 from Ilex Forest) and use it on trees. Whether a tree is common, rare or empty depends on the tree and your Trainer ID.

Chances are the game’s encounter slots for each time of day: morning 4:00–9:59, day 10:00–17:59, night 18:00–3:59 (grass and caves 30/30/20/10/5/4/1, surfing 60/30/10, Old Rod 70/15/15, Good Rod 35/35/20/10, Super Rod 40/30/20/10). Where Gold and Silver differ, a cell shows both (G and S); a version tag means the Pokémon only appears in that version here. Version exclusives · Where to find every Pokémon.

Prize money is the trainer class’s base payout times the level of the trainer’s last Pokémon. Trainers with phone rematches call you when they want another battle; their teams grow as you progress.

Items

Hidden items can be found with the Itemfinder from Ecruteak City.

Tips

• Leave a compatible pair at the Day-Care; the old man outside tells you when an Egg is ready.
• Drowzee are the most common catch here, with Abra and Ditto (both Lv10) as rarer finds at any time of day.
• Catch a Drowzee to trade for a Machop on Goldenrod Department Store 5F before you face Whitney.
• Officer Keith only patrols at night and battles with a Lv17 Growlithe.
• The woman in the Ilex Forest gate gives you TM12 Sweet Scent.
• With Surf you can reach three Cooltrainers on the beach; beating Kate earns you Soft Sand.
