Not sure but i kinda i want to replace my nidoking with a tyranitar...
I know i want to replace raikou with a manectric.
I want to evolve togetic too.

Well yesterday i just happened to stumble across a shinx by playing the sinnoh channel and now it's a level 42 luxray. SO MUCH FOR GETTING A MANECTRIC...

Yeah, only thing I dislike about this game is the lack of grinding opportunity. Everyone is level 20-25 and then you get to the E4 and suddenly level 50ies.

I'm grinding near Blackthorn, still need the 8th Badge, and no legendaries. Don't want them anyways, but I heard you MUST catch Lugia so you could get to the E4? How's that? Eh, gonna need them for the dex anyways.

Team-

Mean Green the male Meganium- Lv.35
Anya the female Golem- Lv. 33
Emperor the male Red Gyarados (I had a normal, trained Gyarados but the Red Gyarados owns him)- Lv. 32
Boxxy the female Vulpix- Lv. 33
Uri the male Alakazam- Lv.36
Pride the male Pidgeotto- Lv. 33

It's really easy if you've played Picross or Minesweeper before.

The numbers at the end are your friends.
1) Flip over all columns/rows that have no Voltorbs
2) Mark all columns/rows with a point/orb total that add up to 5. It means that all the cards are either 1s or orbs; so it's useless.
3) Furthermore if you've flipped over a 2, and the point/orb total of that row adds up to 6; that means that row is dead now too; and you can mark it off.
4) Rows which have a 3 flipped are worth 'double' the amount 2s are worth.
(Say a row had a point/orb total that added up to 7. That means there are either two 2 point cards, or a single 3 point card)
5) If you're a maths nerd:
"Dead Row" = Points + Orbs = 5 + ("number of 2 tiles") + ("number of 3 tiles" * 2)

After you play a few games this way, you'll be able to do that equation in your head; and you could probably clear Levels 1-3 in seconds each.

Eventually there'll be situations where there are no 'safe' tiles. If you need to take a guess; choose a tile that's a cross section between two high-point rows. Once you get a high enough difficulty, you'll see "Voltorb-only" rows; which make the game much easier; 'cuz you know where a good number of the bombs are!

I've gotten up to level 8 difficulty this way before making a dumb reading error and going back to level 1.

I found the the best grind spot was in this little patch of grass on route 47 on top of a waterfall. I don't think you will find super high levels (I think there are some in the 30s) but they aren't so common.

Ditto are also pretty common in that patch.

Entrance of the mewtwo cave is pretty good for high level grinding adn dittos

Mt. Silver, duh. Levels 37-52.

Cerulean Cave should have its name be changed back to Unknown Dungeon.

Why is Aipom so hard to find

I keep getting Spearows and the occasional Heracross but no Aipom

I found an Aipom literally immediately after posting this

from what i've heard it was never called the unknown dungeon to begin with and that was just a fan term that spread like wildfire

but yes it is definitely a better name

Hi I have the game guide to Red and blue and it was always called Cerulean Cave.
