Tips

• The Guide Gent’s tour is mandatory in HGSS and ends with him giving you the Running Shoes.
• The Map Card for your Pokégear is added as you head north out of town onto Route 30.
• Rival Silver battles you here on the way back from Mr. Pokémon’s house with the starter that beats yours, a single Lv5 Pokémon.
• A man on the small island west of town gives you Mystic Water, but you need Surf to reach him.
• The upper Poké Mart counter sells Heal Balls, handy for catching early Pokémon that come out fully healed.
• Fishing at night with the Good or Super Rod can turn up Staryu, while the Super Rod also hooks Corsola and Kingler.
