Pokemon Tower

Pokemon Tower

Once you get to Lavender Town, go into the Pokemon Tower. Head up the stairs, picking up items and battling scary looking women. Right before you reach the stairs that leads to the top floor, you will be stopped by the ghost of a dead Marowak. It was a mother of a Cubone, and was killed by the evil Team Rocket. Defeat her to calm her spirits (you cannot catch her).

At the top floor, you'll be fighting three Rocket members. They will leave one by one after you defeat them. At the end, you'll find an old man, known as Mr. Fuji. Talk to him, and he'll transport you to his house, where he'll give you a PokeFlute.

Locations (Pokemon Tower)

* Cubone
* Ghastly
* Haunter

Now go back to Celadon City, and head west to Route 16.

Catching A Big One

Cut the tree and battle the two couples in a two-on-two match. Head through the building to get to the other side and then go into the small house. Inside, a little girl will give you HM02 - Fly. Go back and cut the tree again to get back to the other side. A fat roadblock, a lv. 30 Snorlax, is blocking the road to Saffron City. Save your game, press "A", and the PokeFlute will begin to play. Snorlax soon wakes up, probably angry at what you just did. Try to catch this Snorlax, which can be quite difficult. Even if you accidently made him faint and you didn't save the game, there's one more Snorlax in the game.

After either capturing or defeating the Snorlax, go through the Guard House for an Amulet Coin from one of Prof. Oak's aides if you've captured at least fourty Pokemon. After that, go to any Guard House that leads to Saffron City. The guard will drink your Tea, and then will let you through.
