Pokemon Ash Gray Walkthrough

Just as in the anime, Ash oversleeps and misses out on the starter Pokemon giveaway. Instead, Professor Oak entrusts him with Pikachu and gives you5 Poke Ballsand aPokedex.

After leaving Professor Oak’s lab, Ash’s mother stops by to hand him a pair ofRunning Shoes,aTown Map,and aFame Checker, an item that allows players to recall previous dialogue with important characters in the game. The first battle comes next, courtesy of a wild Spearow.

Pokemon Ash Gray road to Viridian City

Pikachu can easily defeat it because of itstyping advantage. After the battle, head north to Viridian City.

The road to Viridian City is filled with tall grass and is a good place to train Pikachu for a level or two. The path further north will be blocked by a tree, so turn right towards the water and press “A” to swim.

Let the current carry you north to Misty, who is fishing. She will urge Ash to take Pikachu to the Pokemon Center using her bike. Ride east until a flock of Spearow block your path Pikachu will unleash Thunderbolt and scatter them,listening to Ash’s orders from then on.

As the skies clear, watch for a Ho-Oh appearing in the sky, just like in the anime.

Pokemon Ash Gray Catching Bulbasaur

Route 2: Viridian Forest

It’s now time to go to the Viridian Forest, so head north and enter through a line of trees that serves as the entrance of the forest. Upon walking onto the grass,a wild level 5 Caterpie will appear.

Keep to the left while heading north and you’ll encounter alevel 7 Pidgeotto.This is a reference to the anime, as Viridian Forest is the location where Ash caught his Caterpie and Pidgeotto.

While there will be better alternatives late in-game, I think it’s a good idea to catch Pidgeotto and level it up, since there’s a tough battle ahead against a level 10 Pinsir.

Pewter City Gym

Rock/Ground

Enter the Pewter City gym to challengeBrockand hislevel 14 Onix. The outcome of the first match will not matter, as Flint will come and lead you to the Hydroelectric Powerplant where he’ll give you aLight Ball, a uniquehold item for Pikachu that raises its Attack and Sp. Attack stats.

Give the Light Ball to Pikachu and challenge Brock once again, but this time you’ll need to defeat Geodude (level 12) and Onix (level 14) to win theBoulder Badge andTM39 - Rock Tomb.

At the entrance of Mt. Moon, you’ll meet the scientist Seymour, who will ask for your help in protecting Clefairy and the Moon Stone from thieves. Explore the cave and you’ll discover that it’sTeam Rocket, so defeat them to thwart their nefarious deeds.

Exiting Mt. Moon leads to Cerulean City.

Inside Mt. Moon, you’ll have the option to take a Moon Stone, which you may use to level up Pokemon such as Clefairy, Nidorino, Nidorina, and even Scyther.Yes!Scyther evolves into Scizor via Moon Stone in this game.

Cerulean City Gym

Your opponent in the Cerulean City gym isMisty, and she has level 17 Staryu and level 19 Starmie.

I discovered that you may catch an Abra north of Cerulean city and evolve it into a Kadabra. Leveling it up to around 20 or higher is an easier way to defeat Misty, since it’ll have the power to OHKO her two Pokemon.

After you defeat Misty, talk to Daisy, and she’ll officially award you theCascade badgeandTM03 - Water Pulse.

Pikachu will be benched in this battle, so it’s a good idea to catch Paras back in Mt. Moon or catch an Abra from the tall grass to the east of the city and evolve it into a Kadabra.

10 Weak Pokemon With Insane Potential

Ever wanted to use some new Pokemon instead of the usual favourites? These weak Pokemon have insane potential to carry you through the game and beyond

How to Catch Bulbasaur in Pokemon Ash Gray

From Cerulean City, head south and then west until you reach a patch of grass, then head south once more until you see the entrance to theHidden Village.

Navigate through the village to meet Melani,e who will suggest to take Bulbasaur along with you on one condition:Defeat Bulbasaur first to prove you are worthy of being its trainer.

Bulbasaur is onlylevel 10,so it’s very easy to lower its HP and catch it using a Poke Ball.

Be very careful not to fall into any traps inside the Hidden Village. If you don’t have an Escape Rope or a Pokemon that knows Teleport, you will be trapped in the hole with no way of getting out.

How to Catch Charmander in Pokemon Ash Gray

After catching Bulbasaur, leave the Hidden Village and head south until you see a Charmander sitting on a hill and a Pokemon Center further south. Enter the building and talk to a boy named Damian wearing a blue shirt to the right.

He’ll mention that he left this Charmander to be a stray so you may now go back to Charmander and claim it.Keep in mind that you need an empty slot in your party to take Charmander.

Upon exiting the center, Damian will challenge you to a battle for Charmander’s ownership.He has a level 16 Machop, Drowzee, and Rhyhorn,but a Psychic Pokemon such as Kadabra can easily OHKO his entire party using Confusion.

How to Get The Old Rod in Pokemon Ash Gray

After acquiring Charmander, head south, then east. A group of Squirtle will trap you, but Officer Jenny will come to your rescue. She’ll explain that the Squirtle squad are all Squirtles that were deserted by their trainers.

Continue going east and enter the house. Talk to the man inside. He’s theFishing Guruand will give you anOld Rod.

To start fishing, just stand near any body of water and press A, in typical Pokemon fashion.

The Best Starter Pokémon From Every Generation

Choosing which starter Pokémon to go with is one of the most monumental decisions in video games. This list may help players decide.

How to Catch Squirtle in Pokemon Ash Gray

Use the fishing rod in the lake below, and you’ll fish a Squirtle. An event will be triggered where Squirtle will ambush your Pikachu and take it to the cave in the east.

To rescue Pikachu,you’ll need to get a Super Potion from a Poke Mart located at the other end of the cave.Your dedication to Pikachu will impress Squirtle and he’ll join your team.

Afterward, head south past Officer Jenny and go through the Underground Tunnel to reach Vermillion City.

Vermillion City Gym

Unlike Pokemon FireRed, there’s no Diglett’s cave available to catch a Diglett or Dugtrio to use to breeze through this Gym battle. Instead,I taught Pikachu the move Dig(yes, Pikachu can learn Dig in this game) from the TM I got from Mt. Moon.

Lt. Surge only has a level 25 Raichu,soit’s not that taxing a battle. After defeating him, he’ll award you with theThunder BadgeandTM34 - Shockwave.

Another way to win against Lt. Surge is to catch and train a Sandshrew from Mt. Moon, so you’ll have a STAB typing advantage against Raichu and an Electric immunity.

After defeating Lt. Surge, head towards the harbor, and you’ll meet two girls who will give you tickets to St. Anne.

Board the ship and go down the staircase to the southwest. Fight all the Team Rocket grunts in the hallway to reach the final room whichcontains the Hatchet, an item that functions the same way as the HM01 - Cut.

One of the main differences between St. Anne in Pokemon Ash Gray and FireRed is that the ship will leave immediately as soon as you’re onboard, so make sure you don’t have anything left to do before heading to the harbor.

How to Catch Gyarados in Pokemon Ash Gray

After defeating Team Rocket, go upstairs to the second floor and head east. This will lead you to another staircase to the captain’s room, where you’ll learn that the ship has capsized.

Use the Hatchet to escape, then swim to the east towards Team Rocket’s raft to trigger a battle against alevel 25 Gyaradoswhich you can choose to capture. You’ll wake up in Pokemon Land afterward, but a lady with a yacht will come to your rescue.

Porta Vista

After disembarking the yacht, you’ll arrive in Porta Vista, a tourist spot renowned for its rival restaurants and beauty contest. Head north, where your services will be needed in tackling Tentacool, which have interrupted a hotel construction nearby.

Head further north and talk to the man wearing a red shirt.A group of Tentacool will mutate into a giant Tentacruel, which you’ll have to battle.

This is a difficult battle against a powerfullevel 25 Tentacruel which knows the moves Toxic, Sludge Bomb, andHydro Pump,so make sure Pikachu is in tip-top shape for this battle. Unfortunately, you can’t catch this Pokemon, so after defeating it, talk to the man again, and he’ll take you to Maiden’s Peak.

Maiden’s Peak - Route 7

From Maiden’s Peak, head north then west to see a group of Butterfree by the ocean. Talk to the lady standing near a sign, and she’ll tell you that it’s Butterfree’s mating season. You’ll have a choice to release your Butterfree if you have one.

This is a touching reference to the heartbreaking episode 21 of the show, in which Ash bids farewell to his Butterfree.

Saffron City and First Encounter with Sabrina

Go to the Gym and defeat a trainer to get a chance to challenge Sabrina and herlevel 35 Abra.Even if you win this battle, Sabrina will declare that you’re no match for her psychic abilities and will shrink you as a toy for her miniature Saffron City.

Go to a small alleyway near the gym, and an old man will advise you tocatch a ghost-type Pokemonin Lavender Town to defeat Sabrina.

Unlike Pokemon FireRed, Silph Co., isn’t a relevant element in this game and all you’ll need to do is head to the Saffron City Gym.
