Viridian City

Viridian City

As you move north from Route 1, you will arrive in Viridian City. Here, you will find five buildings and an important item to move along your quest.

Poké Center

Not only can you heal all your Pokémon for free in these handy Poké-hospitals, you can also deposit and withdraw items via the PC system in the corner. If you have a friend who owns a GBA and a copy of Fire Redor Leaf Green (you’ll need a link cable to connect, of course), you can also trade or engage in battle by using the Pokémon Cable Club in any Poké Center in the game. Whenever you see a Poké Center, you should go inside, heal your Pokémon and save — just in case there are any events that force you to battle.

Poké Mart

You’ll find plenty of these stores throughout the whole game. Here, you can buy items ranging from health potions to valuable power-ups. However, the first time you step into this store, you won’t be able to buy anything yet. Instead, the store manager asks you to bring a parcel to Professor Oak. Once you have completed this side quest, you can return and buy Potions, Poké Balls and some Antidotes to help you on your further adventures.

Item	Cost
Poké Ball	200
Potion	300
Antidote	100
Paralyze Heal	200

Poké School

Inside this school building, you will find some helpful tips on the game. Just walk up to the blackboard and push your button to read.

Gym

Forget about the Viridian City Gym for now. You’ll have to come back here much, much later.(After you achieve seven gym badges.)

Return to Pallet Town

Sorry, you can’t move on from here until you have gone back to Pallet Town and delivered the parcel you got in the mart to Professor Oak. In return, you will receive your Pokédex and the ability to use Poké Balls to capture Pokémon. While in Pallet Town, be sure to drop by Gary’s sister to get your Town Map.

Viridian City

As you head to the north end of Viridian City, you’ll run into an old man who will teach you how to capture Pokémon. He’ll give you a Teachy TV as you’re leaving that will give you tips on how to play the game. You can find this item in the Key Items pocket of your backpack. Make sure you get the Potion behind the vine near the old man… you’ll have to skirt the fence to get it. Once you have it, exit Viridian City to the north.

Later on in Viridian City

1. After you have delivered the parcel to Professor Oak, you will be able to go north.
2. Once you have learned HM 01 – Cut, you can cut down the bush near the small pond. Talk to the guy behind it and you will get the TM 42 – Dream Eater technique.
3. Access the Gym.

Return After Obtaining Cut

Get TM 42 – Dream Eater

Go back to Viridian City, which is located to the south of this area. There are two small bushes in this city that can be cut down with the help of HM 01 – Cut. Once you cut down the bush in the southwest, you’ll get your hands on TM 42 – Dream Eater.

Up Next: Route 22
