[xzx] Final Section & Other Ramblings
======================================================================
Hi there, how's it going? My name is Allen and this is my walkthrough of Pokemon (Old) White Beta 1.2, which Hacksrepairman was kind enough to fix and finish off back in 2019. I played the official version some years ago and thought it had some promise. But sadly for one reason or another, the creator foullump didn't carry on and complete it. I only found out about the HRM version late last year (2020) when I was making a list of my next walkthroughs after completing my final one for the Pokemon Adventure Red Chapter series. There's not much listed as far as the official features go but in this version not only will we get to explore the main region of the game Denta but also Kanto, Johto and a very little tiny bit of Hoenn. Plus there are 19 Gym Badges to be collected. NINETEEN for Christine's sake xD! Incredible, so strap in and let's get started.
It is in the opening credits that Foullump says that the reason the original version didn't carry on beyond Beta 1.2 is because he didn't like it and he started another one, which he doesn't name :/ as I'm typing this I have no internet access at home so I can't check what that other game turned out to be (if it was any good perhaps that's one for a future walkthrough...). After those credits we meet Prof. Oak for the standard professor intro. We also get to name our friendly Rival, I'll be calling him Gary to keep things simple but feel free to name him anything.
We'll wake up in our room, according to the Town Map we are in a place called West Academy. Boot up the computer to find a Potion in Storage. Exit the dormroom and head for the stairs at the end of the hallway, all the other rooms are locked. Good news though - it's Graduation Day! On the bottom floor we meet our roommate Gary, he's annoyed with us because apparently we locked him out last night xD. Won't happen again, promise. He says we should follow him to find Professor Pine so we can take the graduation test. Leave the building.
[001] WEST ACADEMY
==================
Places of Interest
..................
- Dormitory
- PokeCenter
- PokeMart
- Prof. Pine's Lab
- Prof. Oak's Quarters
- Field Building
- Colosseum
- West Academy Library
- Gym
Head to the left and meet Prof. Spruce, she tells us that Gary went to the northwest part of the campus, that's where Prof. Pine is. Spruce also says that she will test us at the Field Building when the time comes. After she leaves we talk to Jack, since he got all the test answers he helps us out by showing us the PokeCenter. There's nobody inside except for the "Profile" woman. Let's look around before going northwest.
South from the PokeCenter is the beach, you'll find a Rare Candy on the west side. Go all the way east then north, after climbing the first set of steps turn right and go into the area between the trees to pick up a Potion. Above the next set of steps check behind the trees on the right for a Revive. On the left from there is a pair of locked buildings and Prof. Oak's Quarters, he's there but is too busy for us to talk to yet. Beyond the quarters is the Field Building, go through it to reach a grassy area where we're told that the person in charge here, Clare/Prof. Spruce, doesn't want anyone there. From where you found the Potion continue east to visit the Mart (there's another blocked off building next to the Mart, that's the Colosseum). We've got some pocket change so you can do some shopping:
Potion P300
Full Heal P600
Repel P350
Escape Rope P550
Revive P1500
South from the Mart is the West Academy Library but no entry until we have Prof. Pine's signature. North from the Mart is the Gym, here we find the Gym Instructor Prof. Ceader and he won't see us until we've been to Prof. Spruce's. Further east is blocked off so now let's head over to Prof. Pine's place.
When we reach the lab Gary is stepping out of it and going to the Library. Inside we chat with Prof. Pine and get to choose our Starter from a selection of the Kanto, Johto and Hoenn Pokemon. After that Pine signs our card and tells us that the next person we should see is Prof. Fur at the Library. Exit and get ready because we'll be meeting other Graduates and they're eager to test out their Starters. First one is Bill near the PokeCenter.
Graduate Bill
- Lv5 Charmander [Fire]
Prize: P20
Outside the Field Building is Shane.
Graduate Shane
- Lv5 Squirtle [Water]
Prize: P20
East from the locked buildings is Casey.
Graduate Casey
- Lv5 Torchic [Fire]
Prize: P20
Before reaching the Mart we'll find Max, not yet graduating.
Beginner Max
- Lv5 Treecko [Grass]
Prize: P400
The man outside the Library sees that we got Pine's signature and lets us through. Go up to the next floor, you'll find a guy in green on the east side - he teaches Seismic Toss once. Move on to the third floor and interact with the second bookshelf from the far right. That leads us to Prof. Fur's room and we've arrived just in time for a lecture about Pokemon Types and battles. If you say No to his questions he'll just explain what Types and battles are. After that he gives us the Teachy TV and signs our card. Exit the Library and go back to the Field Building's grassy area.
**NOTE: I don't have any Pokemon (Old) White documents e.g. Pokemon Location guide, Item/Key Item/HM and TM Location guide etc because I didn't find any that are offered together with the game, so my Pokemon Found lists are only going to have Pokemon that I am lucky enough to encounter. For any Pokemon that I miss, please contact me so that I include them. Email allenchngnzh22@gmail.com, or message me (Allen Ceedos) at the Pokemon Community forums site or Allen_Cee07 on Reddit.
Pokemon Found [Levels: 2-4]
.............
Taillow [Normal/Flying]
Pidgey [Normal/Flying]
Spearow [Normal/Flying]
Follow the path all the way to the top left side where we see Spruce. She'll teach us about wild Pokemon and give us Poke Balls. We haven't received the PokeDex yet so hold off on catching anything for now. When you're done battling the Pokemon here follow Spruce to the top right side and she'll teach us about Berry Trees. Pick Berries from all the trees then speak to Spruce and that completes the exam. Leave this area and prepare to tackle the Gym.
**P.S. After seeing Spruce, you can now buy Poke Balls from the Mart.
WEST ACADEMY GYM
++++++++++++++++
Leading Professor: Prof. Ceader
He sees our signed card and will then explain what Gyms are. After that he tells us to solve the Gym puzzle and he'll meet us when we're done. Step on the northward spinner tile and end up right next to Collin.
Graduate Collin
- Lv5 Bulbasaur [Grass/Poison]
Prize: P20
Step on the eastward spinner tile next to you, that should lead you to the free tile southwest from Collin. Move down and step on the eastward spinner tile to reach Ceader. Our very first Gym Battle (?)
++++++++++++++
>>GYM BATTLE<<
++++++++++++++
Pokemon Prof. Ceader
- Lv10 Ditto [Normal] {Limber}
Prize: P1000
**BATTLE NOTES:
Ditto Move: Transform
No fancy Badge given out, darn it, but we do get Ceader's signature and he tells us that the graduation ceremony is about to begin. Exit the Gym and heal up if you need to because we're going to be stopped by Gary after passing the Mart. Doesn't matter if you say No to him, he wants that battle damn it xD.
================
>>RIVAL BATTLE<<
================
Old Friend Gary
- Lv12 Eevee [Normal] {Run Away}
Prize: P432
**BATTLE NOTES:
- Yup, in this game Tail Whip deals damage (more than Tackle)! As it should :) nice touch.
Eevee Moves: Sand-Attack, Tail Whip, Tackle, ???
Gary leaves for the Colosseum, go on and join in the ceremony. Not only is Prof. Oak here but Johto's own Prof. Elm is present as well! After the graduation party we hear from them about a special mission they have for us: to travel across multiple regions, catch Pokemon and fill up our PokeDex! Yeah...that old special mission xD, we're Trainers now so you can't be surprised. Oak also gives us the Beginning Trainer package which contains essential Items. At first Oak wants us to travel to Kanto (reached by going east to Denta Port and departing from there) but because Elm needs his help in Johto we are to head over there instead, New Bark Town specifically. Had things gone according to plan we would also be travelling through Hoenn, as indicated by Oak's dialogue about the Gyms, but plans changed. A train moves between Rustboro City and a place called Steel City. We find out that there are only 2 Gyms in Denta (?!), damn. The professors leave and you can now return to the Field Building garden to catch some Monz. When you're done and ready head east to Route 70.

Head down to jump a ledge and go to the cave entrance on the right. It's dark in this cave but there are no wild Pokemon. Move up until you reach a wall then head to the right and climb the steps. All the way north then follow the passage as it goes west then round to the northeast exit. Back outside we meet Jamie.
Beginner Jamie
- Lv14 Smoochum [Ice/Psychic]
Prize: P1120
Continue east, you'll see a curious hole in the cliff wall (what would normally be the sign of a Secret Base) but just make a note of it for now and proceed to a dirt road below. It leads to a junction on the right, the Lass standing there can't get to Sol City further north because of an earthquake-created ledge. If you go up along that short road you'll see the other way she's talking about - blocked by a familiar "tree". Go back to the Secret Base spot, this time there should be an entrance, go through to pick up Zinc. Back to the junction, continue east to the next part of this route and the next battle against Borris.

Look at that, a couple of Starters out in the wild :) nice. At the end of this path is the entrance to the Seaside Woods, but also present are a pair of Team Aqua Grunts! Our journey has only just started and already we've found trouble. Sneak up on either of them to catch their conversation: their fellow Grunts have gone into the woods in search of Celebi (!), even though things didn't exactly go well for the sea-loving organisation last time when they were in the business of pursuing Legendary Pokemon. The Grunts see us and it's battle time. One on one, back to back.

At the end of D we find a big ledge keeping us from getting to Sol City and Steel City. And our pal Gary is here too, noting the ledge as well. He figures out how we can reach Sol City: we go back to Route 71 then north. Great. But while he's here you know that Gary also wants a battle, because he's been training and wants to test out his team so...

Maybe next time you'll win, Gary. Maybe. As soon as one Rival leaves, the next one drops in - Eddy! And it looks like he's coming from Steel City. He still isn't convinced that we're a Trainer - I sense a running Rival gag in the making - and so we gotta show him again.

Yup, he hasn't enough yet xD and this time he name-drops a friend of his - some fellow named Zach who sounds like quite the big deal. Interesting to note that he entered an organisation called the Elite Trainers' Guild. Eddy will only recognise us after we defeat Zach, so until that happens we're a loser in his eyes. Lovely xD. Let's return to Route 71 shall we? Where the PokeCenter is located. Them boulders in Seaside Village aren't there now, nice.
.....Several Hours Later.....
We go southwest from the PokeCenter, cross a bridge and get to the Cop and Sudowoodo. Approach Sudowoodo and either catch or defeat it.

This guy turns out to be Eddy's friend Zach! Well, well. He had been on an undefeated streak until we happened :) unlike Eddy he seems to be on the cooler side, so we can add him to the Rival Rolodex as #3. So will Senpai Eddy finally notice us now that we've defeated Zach? Continue all the way north then northeast to a path between mountains then south to cross a pair of bridges. North from there is Brianne.

You'll cross a bridge going east and reach a pool, make a note to NOT fish in there when you've got them Fishing Rods later. The game freezes when you try to fish. Same story for the bigger pool that comes next after you circle round. Cross the next bridge going west then south to see little Timmy.

If you need to visit the PokeCenter go straight west. Also found on this side, just above the PokeCenter, is the home of Kyle who wants to trade his Onix for a Bellsprout. When we try to go north we are stopped by a girl who tells us that her father has been taken by Team Rocket! They haven't given up their search for Celebi. To find Team Rocket we must head over to their warehouse in the northeast corner of town, but let's look around the northwest area first.
The first house we reach is where you can get your Pokemon healed. In the house next to the Mart there's a note from Monica written to her siblings, if you've played the Gen 2 games you may still remember these Item-giving characters:
Monica (Monday) on Route 40
Tuscany (Tuesday) on Route 29
Wesley (Wednesday) at the Lake of Rage
Arthur (Thursday) on Route 36
Frieda (Friday) on Route 32
Santos (Saturday) in Blackthorn City
Sunny (Sunday) on Route 37
No problem in the Gen 2 games but in this game there's no Real Time Clock function. We'll check around Johto for them while we're there. Out west from town is Lake Sol, we'll explore that after we're done with Team Rocket.
The pair of Grunts blocking the path going east aren't letting people through until their boss says so. Let's go and find their boss then.

Giovanni isn't looking to fight us here, he decides it's best they leave in case the police have been notified. Speak to the girl's father, he's unharmed at least, he tells us why Team Rocket got him - he encountered Celebi at some point. Then he gives us Rare Candy. Exit the warehouse.
To the east is Route 75, but let's go west to see Lake Sol.

Hmm, so even if we could Surf there's no way we can get into the water with that strong current :/ darn it. Hike up the mountain and follow the path to a cave entrance back in Sol City. There are a couple of ladders to be climbed until you get to an area that has a shiny looking grey slab with an inscripture:
"From the POINT OF ORDER, follow the path appointed:
Left, Up, Down, Up, Right, Left, Down.
Doing this will lead you BEYOND LIFE."
Huh. I tried both tapping each of those directions so my character just turns accordingly and also moving in those directions too but nothing happens, whether you stand on th north face of the slab or south face. Maybe the Point of Order is at some other place? For now just make a note of that inscription. Exit the cave, head back to town and go east.

The second city we've stepped into and Team Rocket's presence has the police on high alert. They've blocked entry into a couple of buildings and access to the western portion of the city. Let's explore this eastern half.
As soon as you arrive, you should see a guy in green near the city signboard - say Yes to him and receive the ItemFinder. Go north and speak to the roaming Youngster near the PokeCenter and Mart, say you'll help him and he gives you a Key that we must deliver to his roommate who has probably locked himself out. Their house is by the Lighthouse. In the Mart be sure to get 2 of those curious-looking Claim Tickets. Continue north to the building near 3 trees, that's where Mr Psychic lives if you want a TM29. Next door from there is Eva's house, she'll give you a Lv20 Eevee that is holding a Soothe Bell. In this game Eevee evolves into Espeon by Sun Stone or into Umbreon by Moon Stone, nice and convenient. No Leafeon, no Glaceon and obviously no Sylveon :/
SAVE and be ready before proceeding to the northern end because up there we find Gary. He had read up about Steel City back in the school days but it's bigger than he expected. After comparing PokeDexes he tells us that he'll be travelling across water in search of Lugia (!) talk about ambition xD, but before he leaves Gary asks for a battle. If you say No he'll accept that and aim for next time, so....

**BATTLE NOTES:
- I think his Eevee evolves depending on the Type of the Starter we choose just like Blue's Eevee in Pokemon Yellow. So from now on I'll just indicate its Level because I would only be showing information of the form he's got in my play through and if that ain't the form he's got in your game, it doesn't help.
Hitmontop Moves: Counter, CloseCombat, Triple Kick, Mega Kick
Electabuzz Moves: Body Slam, Shock Wave, CloseCombat, Thunderbolt
Magmar Moves: CloseCombat, Smog, Fire Punch, Leer
Nidoqueen Moves: Toxic, Stomp only
Gary says he'll call us if anything comes up. I wonder how long it will be until we see him again, seems like he'll be away for a while. Continue west until you see the top side of a stream flowing south, you'll find a man in green standing on the southwest side - if you have 50 or more Pokemon he'll give you a Master Ball! Just like that, the Master Ball being introduced this early in the game, I'm both happy and concerned about this haha :) If you go north of the stream you'll reach a Gate which leads to Poke Park, but the guards tell us to come back later because the park is currently closed. The stairs in the Gate take us to an underground passage that connects the Gate to another one. Once there go through the north exit to arrive in the north side of town.
Head up to find a woman in pink, she'll ask if you are a Trainer and if you say Yes she will battle you.
Pokemon Trainer Cindy
- Lv24 Feebas [Water] {Swift Swim}
Prize: P1440
You can battle her more than once. Nothing else here because the cops are in the way so return to the stream and continue southwest. You'll find a Sailor along the way who tells us about a certain Legendary that he once saw - Kyogre! Lucky him :) will we see it too during our journey? South from the Sailor is a guy in green who has a short story about a girl he really likes, the interesting thing to note is the highlighted Garden where he usually sees her. In the building just on the left from him we find some Rockets, not the kind we can battle but the kind with Pokemon to sell. Those Claim Tickets will get you a Larvitar and/or a Houndour. We can't go further north yet so head down to the docks to catch a bad situation in progress: a trio of Aqua Grunts hijack a ship and high tail it! Without that ship no travel to other regions is possible, damn. Follow after the Captain, the next ship is the S.S. Tide but we don't have a Ticket for it yet so just make a note of it. The Captain is with a man named Mr. Jim who will help us chase after the Grunts with his own boat. He'll wait for us there, which gives us a chance to check this part of town first.
The next person we find is another guy in green, he'll trade you his Leftovers for a Moon Stone. The Gym is located here too but unfortunately it's closed. What the...? So now there's only ONE Gym remaining in this entire region?? Wow xD, that's rather depressing. Next to the Gym is the Garden we heard about, the girl is here too and after we tell her about her admirer at first she isn't sure but then concludes by revealing that she has a boyfriend. Oh snap :/ return to the guy and you'll either have to be honest by saying No or lie to him by saying Yes. If you say Yes he'll be super happy, gives us Rare Candy, and then disappears. Say No and he'll still disappear but disappointed as well. When you're ready go back to meet with Mr. Jim and we chase after those fools in blue.
[rtui] UNKNOWN ISLAND
---------------------
No Fishing possible here but when you get to the top of the island you'll see a cave entrance below on the western side. We'll make a note of that for when we can Surf. Enter the Rocket Warehouse and descend to the basement...
(B1F)
....and behold - spinner tiles! No warehouse worth its salt comes without them :) roll up them sleeves, here we go: just below, you should be seeing 2 rows of eastward facing tiles, go for the bottom row and spin over to a right side lone tile. Go up and reach the northeast lone tile. One step to the right then step on the southward tile directly below you, that should take you to a lone tile which is on the left side of an orange container. Below you are 2 eastward tiles, step on the bottom one, that should send you to a lone tile in the southeast. Of the 2 southward tiles directly below you, step on the left one and finally reach those next stairs, phew....
(B2F)
.....wait, another spinner tile area?! That's gangster, yo xD what makes this place dangerous is that there's another room below so if you're not careful you'll hop onto spinners that will lead you to it. Here we go again: From the staircase you'll see 2 short rows of eastward tiles, go for the bottom row and end up on a lone tile that's between 2 southward tiles. Step on the right side one and once on the next lone tile step on the southward tiles on your left, they'll take you to a lone tile that's to the right of an orange container. Take one step to the left and get on the southward tile directly below you, that'll send you to the staircase we're aiming for. The other room is currently empty but maybe we'll come back much later on for it.
We'll end up back outside, no wild Pokemon in the grass here. Go south, you'll see the path head to the left - it leads to an empty dock. Continue south until you circle round to the northeast building.
(2F)
Spinner Tiles 3: Revolutions - a fitting movie title right there :) don't judge me, I dislike spinner tile puzzles as much as you do haha. Before we tackle this new puzzle go up to the room on 3F and read the papers on the clipboard - there's a notice about a ship which will depart for the Whirl Islands. Hmm, perhaps it has already sailed because there's nobody left on this island from the looks of things. Now let's go back and get over them tiles:
Go stand on the lone tile below and step on the westward tile that's on your left, that sends you to the much lower lone tile. On your right are 3 columns of northward tiles, step on the middle one and end up in the top right corner of the room. Go for the westward tiles that lead to the next lone tile and then just walk on down to the stairs.
(1F - Area 2)
Go through the open doorway on the right, march through the next room and back outside. Go on up to see Giovanni warning Axis before they board a ship, we get on it just in time. Where to?

We don't find out why they're after it because Giovanni notices us, he now wants to see if we're as powerful as Axis claims. Any Poke Balls that you're currently carrying will be taken by Giovanni just before he steps aside so Lugia can attack us!

Giovanni can't believe you won, and just before he can do more his phone rings - something major has gone down at one of their bases called KA-150 and he has to get back there NOW. A nice little hint from Axis about something big being at that base. Exit the cave and meet up with Mr. Jim, who saw the coast guard arrest some of the thugs but others escaped in a helicopter. But the boat is safe and we return to Steel City. Back there go speak to the Captain and be rewarded with a Lv25 Lapras that is holding Mystic Water. Nice. Go back to where Mr. Jim is standing and continue south to where we found that guy who wants a Moon Stone, a policeman stops us - this is Officer Johnson, he heard about us from Captain John and asks for our number so that he can call us if anything happens. Good news - the Gym that we found in this area here looks to be the old Gym. The new and current one is on the south side of town, circle round back to the east side then head southwest.

Besides commenting that previous challenger Zach was stronger, Jen will ask you if you want to leave the Gym. If you say No she'll throw in a bit about Lukas not being ready to face us. How come? Also if you say No there isn't another way to cross over to the eastern side of the Gym. So exit the Gym. I went back in to check out that eastern side and none of the Gym Trainers there will battle us, they just give the same dialogue as the other 3. What's up with that?
Go back round to the southwest side of town, where the Garden is and go east along the dirt road. A woman is being chased by a pair of Rockets, they'll take us on in a Double Battle.
Team Rocket Duo Grunt & Grunt
- Lv24 Kabuto [Rock/Water]
- Lv23 Omanyte [Rock/Water]
Prize: P2208
After those run away we receive a call from Officer Johnson: we are needed at the Lighthouse because there's a big problem there. The cop who keeps us from going north past the docks is gone now so carry on there. You'll see a man in a white shirt on the right, he sells enhancers:
HP Up P2000
Protein P2000
Iron P2000
Carbos P2000
Calcium P2000
PP Up P2000
Zinc P2000
PP Max P5000
Go east from there, eventually you'll get to a Gate-like building with a Lass standing by the signboard. Inside is a man who sells Evolution Stones:
Sun Stone P5000
Moon Stone P5000
Fire Stone P5000
ThunderStone P5000
Water Stone P2000
Back to the enhancers man and carry on north, passing a pair of cops blocking access to a southward path, and then seeing a woman who will pay you P17000 if you can give her a Claim Ticket. She's standing outside another building occupied by Rockets who sell Pokemon, these ones have Mr. Mime and Sneasel. The man near the building is hungry, if you give him Leftovers he'll give you a Poke Doll that's a Key Item. North from him is a woman who sells Berries:
Cheri Berry P20
Chesto Berry P20
Pecha Berry P20
Rawst Berry P20
Aspear Berry P20
Leppa Berry P100
Oran Berry P20
Persim Berry P20

Premier Ball P200
Poke Ball P200
Great Ball P600
Repeat Ball P1000
Timer Ball P1000
North from them is another PokeCenter, on the left from it is a woman who gives us Shoal Salt. The locked out roommate is found just further up, give him the Key and receive 3 Rare Candies as a reward. Before going into the Lighthouse go east all the way until you see an old man looking out at the sea, give him the Sitrus Berry and he'll give you TM03 Aqua Jet. Continue on past him to see a woman near a garden of flowers and a "weed" in the middle of it. Go and help her, catch or defeat that Sudowoodo and be rewarded with Rare Candy. Now let's investigate the Lighthouse.
LIGHTHOUSE
----------
There's Officer Johnson, he just tells us to meet him at the top. Also here are another policeman trying (?) to a Rocket Grunt. Same situation on 2F, but on 3F we find Axis. He won't battle us here, instead he tells us not to follow him as he jumps down into the sewers, which are apparently dark and full of people and Pokemon. Oh.
STEEL CITY SEWERS
-----------------
-BF5-
Dark? Yes, but fortunately no wild Pokemon, phew. The Aqua Grunts we find here don't battle us. Follow the path as it goes to the northeast then circles round to the stairs on the southwest side.
-BF4-
Go all the way east then south and southwest to the next stairs.
-BF3-
All the way south then east.
-BF2-
The next stairs are on the southwest side.
-BF1-
South then east until you see a north turn, go up to find the stairs and finally exit the sewers.
BIRMIN STUDIOS
--------------
Huh? Didn't see this coming, I thought we were going to pop up on the mean streets of Steel City somewhere. Check your team and move on up.
-2F-
Face to face with an Aqua Grunt who tells us that they've taken over this place.

-1F-
On the south side of this area is a female Rocket Grunt standing in front of a doorway, she's up for a fight.
Team Rocket Grunt
- Lv25 Noctowl [Normal/Flying]
Prize: P800
Don't bother going through either of those bottom doorways, they lead to the same room where there are two more Grunts blocking doorway access. So head north to pass through another doorway, leads to a room occupied by a female Rocket Grunt. SAVE because she turns out to be a Rocket Executive! There are shift doors serving as barriers on the upper floors and in order to get rid of them we have to defeat this woman right here and now.

Prize: P768
Move to the north side of this room and go through the doorway in the middle, you'll enter a short corridor ending with a stairway going down to a lone 2F room. The Aqua Grunt here is on a break so no trouble, drop down the stairs to a 1F passageway and climb up a series of stairs back to 3F, this time we're on the other side of the top shift door and there's a Rocket waiting.
Team Rocket Grunt
- Lv26 Volbeat [Bug]
Prize: P832
Go through the doorway on the right, you'll climb up some stairs, cross a 4F room, climb down another set and exit through a doorway. We are now on the southeast side of 3F, go for the doorway on the right and get ready for a rematch against those 2 Rockets who were bothering that woman.
Rocket Duo Grunt & Grunt
- Lv30 Omastar [Rock/Water]
- Lv30 Kabutops [Rock/Water]

Are they supposed to be knock off Jessie and James? After they run off, return to 1F and go through either of the south side doorways. In the next room go through the right side doorway and SAVE because that Rocket facing forward is another Executive. He takes care of the other shift doors but we still have to battle him.

Go back to where we battled the Rocket Duo and carry on up to 5F and SAVE before going through the next doorway:
In the scene which follows we see Giovanni, Axis, a squad of cops...and Zach? Interesting that Giovanni addresses him as Mr. President, he has obtained some Master Ball prototypes that belong to Birmin Studios and isn't giving them back. Once we've been noticed Giovanni decides to leave with Axis before the cops can arrest him. Speak to Zach afterwards and we learn that Birmin have been working on creating a Master Ball, their big secret, and Zach has one to give us. It's a little strange for this part in the game's story because we received a Master Ball from some random guy in town xD and now we find out that there is a company which was creating a Master Ball in secret. Also Birmin Studios took over their rival Silph Co. in the past (!) which explains why they have this Master Ball project. Zach will ask for a battle, you can say No if you need to prepare your Pokemon then speak to him again. I have to say - the jump in team levels between regular Trainers, Grunts and Bosses and Rivals has become something I'm concerned about. Check out Zach's crew, he's got a full team now. Good luck.

His Pokemon are from Lv34 to 40?! How do we get from the Rocket Executive whose team hasn't even touched Lv30 to Lv34?? Wow, and we still haven't gotten Gym Badge #1 yet xD. Afterwards Zach suggests we take on Gym Leader Lukas, so return to 1F and exit through the bottom left side. Prepare if you need to and then head for the Gym.
From the entrance, step on the northward spinner tiles on the right side. Once you land on the lone tile, step on the next northward tiles. Up top, get to the lone tile that's on the right and then to the southward tiles on the far left and end up in the bottom right area. Through the doorway, go up the passageway and exit back in the Gym area, northeast side. Go through the next doorway on the left and we enter a darkened area set up like a mini labyrinth puzzle:
Stay on the left side as you move up, take the first left turn then the first south turn and continue along this passage until it heads north. Ignore the first left turn, go for the second one and stick with it until you reach a southern exit. Leads to an empty room with 2 southern exits, go through either one of them and SAVE. It's time we get that first Gym Badge, out of how many by the way? 18? 19?

Absol Moves: Smokescreen, Double-Edge, Faint Attack, SuperPower
Umbreon Moves: Minimize, ExtremeSpeed, Faint Attack, SuperPower
And there we have it, our very first Badge in this game :) but again with the level jump, makes me wonder what the basic levels could be in the other regions. Leave the Gym and as soon as we're at the bottom of the stairs a phone call from Zach comes in. Now that we've got the Badge he tells us about traded Pokemon now obeying us up to a certain level. Zach adds that Steel City has a trade center and now that Team Rocket is gone the city has opened up for us to explore. Problem is that even though we have a Badge now Rocky the Onix (if you got him) will not obey. What's up with that? More bad news from Zach: Captain John has left for Hoenn and if we want to travel we'll have to find someone who will give us a Ticket. The dude gave us a Master Ball, no spare Ticket too? Darn it :/
One of the places that we can visit now is Poke Park, if you have an extra P1000. There are wild Pokemon to be seen and Trainers we can fight. Also buy some Claim Tickets.

It's bad enough that the guy disrespects us for how we're dressed, but to get rid of us he gives us a Nugget too so we can get cleaned up xD. Vicious. That building on the left is another "Rocket shop", this one sells Porygon and Eevee. The policeman by the Gate up top is Richard, he can be battled multiple times too.
Officer Richard
- Lv33 Espeon [Psychic]
Prize: P660
That's all the Poke Park has to offer. Leave and make your way to the northwest side of town to the southward path which was previously blocked by 2 cops (it's just below the Rocket shop). That path takes us to a large open area where we find the Bike Shop, go in and receive a Bike Voucher from the shopkeeper. We'll be taking that to the shop which is in Goldenrod City and get a bike from there. North from the Bike Shop is a spot for Trainers, there are 3 here that you can take on more than once:
Bird Freak Ben
- Lv34 Fearow [Normal/Flying]
Prize: P1088
Player Alec
- Lv35 Bayleef [Grass]
Prize: P140
Lass Clarissa
- Lv35 Jynx [Ice/Psychic]
Prize: P1260
Just above the Trainer spot is the Magnet Train Station and a Cooltrainer who wishes he had a Heart Scale so he could cheer up someone named Collin. We can make a note of this guy for now and we'll come back to catch a train once we get that ticket or train pass. Beyond the Station is a massive building which serves as the trade center that Zach told us about. But it's the trade center from the official Pokemon games not a place exclusive to this game :/ I thought it would be a place where we either meet NPCs who want to trade or we get information about what level traded Pokemon start obeying us at.
Return to the east side of town, from Mr Psychic's house go west until you are in an area above the new Gym. On the right side is a woman in green, she's in need of a birthday gift for her sister. The Poke Doll will do but she also wants Flowers, you get some from the woman whose garden was briefly occupied by Sudowoodo. Give this woman the Flowers and she rewards us with a Heart Scale. Rush back to the Cooltrainer, he now wants us to give the Heart Scale to his brother Collin...way back in Seaside Village! This guy, is he serious?? It's not like we can fast travel there :/ plus this Denta region is just so empty, it has not been fun to travel through. Anyway, prep up if you need to and let's get back on the road.
.....Several Hours Later.....
On the northwest beach of Seaside Village is a Cooltrainer, that's Collin. Give him the Heart Scale and he gives us a Parcel that we must take back to his brother Shane. It's for times like these when that Walk through Walls code really helps because we could simply go back north to Steel City from here, otherwise you'll have to go back via the unnecessarily long way.
.....Several Days Later.....
Once we deliver the Parcel we find out that it contains a Rainbow Wing (?!) that Shane had wanted. Wow. He then gives us a Boat Ticket and now we can finally leave this region for what I really hope is a much, much more lively place. When you're ready go to the docks and board that big boat!
>>-=-=-=-=-JOHTO REGION-=-=-=-=-<<
Once we land at the Olivine Port go on to climb down the stairs, pass through an underground passage and step into town.

Whoa, what happened to the Lighthouse's entrance?? Damn so no Lighthouse training :/ let's see what else is going on in this classic city.
At the Cafe speak to the Sailor to get HM04 Strength. We'll need Whitney's Badge in order to use it outside of battles.
Above the PokeCenter is home of the Good Rod Fisherman, which is quite convenient because north of the Lighthouse are two houses, in the left one lives Tim the Fisherman who will trade you his Voltorb for a Krabby.
We see Profs. Elm and Oak in the middle of a chat about Gary, Elm is concerned about what's going on. Turns out that the Profs are here to meet Gary after he called Elm not too long ago...but he hasn't shown up. Red flag. On the bright side, now that we're finally here in Johto we'll be sure to stop by New Bark Town and meet the Profs there. Before we leave town though, let's find out how Jasmine is doing.

He ain't the only Rocket in town, more Grunts are out and about but they aren't the battling type. They are here to obtain some Legendary Pokemon, surprise surprise.
The Tin Tower is currently off limits to the public for now. The Theatre on the other hand is open, prepare for battle and to bust a few dance moves :)

One caught, two are out there running around Johto maybe? I thought Suicune was also going to flee and wait for us near Cianwood like in the old games. I'm guessing Eusine isn't in this game? Go south to find TM08 Bulk Up and an HP Up before climbing the ladder back to the Main Floor. Near the stairs is a Burn Heal.
When we step outside we are approached by that woman, she says some Team Rocket members have gone to the Tin Tower! Plus one of the Tower protectors is her grandfather so she's worried about him. The building next to the northeast pond leads to the Tin Tower, prep up and let's go.
TIN TOWER

-Main Floor-
Have no fear, the Tin Tower in this universe doesn't have multiple floors and puzzles. I don't know how some of you might feel about that, perhaps there are those of you who were looking forward to getting through the long climb. In this one just follow the stairs all the way to the roof.

Giovanni is convinced now that we're a serious threat to him but vows to defeat us next time. Return to town and prepare for our journey to Goldenrod City. The plan is we get Whitney's Badge so that we can use Strength then we'll travel to Cianwood, battle Chuck and acquire HM Fly so that we can finally fast travel. I went back to Steel City and spoke to Shane just to check if he has anything new to say since he has a Rainbow Wing, nothing new. Who else has a Rainbow Wing in this game?

That Blackbelt by the counter is Mike the man who wants to trade for a Drowzee. The woman near the elevator gives out a Mystery Gift phrase: LINK TOGETHER WITH ALL, but the sheet of paper she's referring to isn't there. The woman behind the counter could be the one who popped up on Sundays in the original games and would give away TMs. In this game though she just comments on how adorable your Pokemon is....or maybe the Happiness/Friendship level of my Pokemon just wasn't high enough??

That concludes our shopping. On the eastern side of the Dept. Store is the Bike Shop, go get that Bicycle. On the western side is the home of the world's greatest PokeManiac Bill, but the man isn't there :/ instead we find his mother and sister. Mother tells us that Bill went to the Ecruteak PokeCenter (he's not back there either). Next to the house is an entrance to the Underground.

When you're done, prepare for Whitney. No point in checking out the Radio Tower because there's no PokeGear and we can't go up to the upper floors because we're told that the Director is acting strange, perhaps a nice little nod to the whole Radio Tower subplot from the old games :)

Go all the way up then left to find a Super Potion. There's another item in the southwest corner but we can't smash rocks yet so we'll come back later. Since there's no lower level I'm guessing that item is a King's Rock. Exit the Well and Azalea.

We'll find the 2 Professors in the Lab, and hear from Oak that he and Elm think Gary's in Kanto so we receive the Tri-Pass and can now travel there by Magnet Train. That's all from the Profs, return to Ecruteak and go east.

There are two entrances ahead, one on the left and another on the right which lead to Area 2.

Follow that path all the way up until you see 2 sets of steps, go for the left set and climb up the rocky mound to get an Escape Rope. Return all the way down and go east to climb the ladder on the right, it leads to another section of Area 1 that's above the waterfall where you'll find a Guard Spec. For now that's as much as we can do in Mt. Mortar until we get Waterfall, exit back to Route 42 by going through the middle opening where the basement ladder is in Area 1.
Back outside, you'll find a Super Potion on the right. Cut the tree below to reach the Pink Apricorn tree on the left. Surf to the right, that's Stan on the other side.

Okay, I like that it was out in the overworld and not a random encounter like in the old games. 2 Legendary Beasts captured, one remains...where could Entei be? Go back to where you took the left turn and go right (use the ItemFinder in the gap on the left to pick up a Chesto Berry), take the first north turn and at the left side end of the path use the ItemFinder to get a Pecha Berry. Back track to take the next north turn and use the ItemFinder in the small gap between trees on the right to get a Razz Berry. That house which you may have noticed near Raikou is locked (I believe that's where you would get TM Hidden Power in the past?) and there's nothing in the far right area so return to main road and head north for the lake.

Almost done with the Johto Badge collection run, but I have to say that as far as story goes Johto seems to have gone dry pretty quickly :| when we got to Ecruteak I thought we were getting into something major with Team Rocket, yet nothing has followed up since that battle against Giovanni. What has happened to Rival #2 Eddy? Or part-time Rival #3 Zach?? Or Aqua Admin Axis??? This makes me start to worry about Kanto. Exit Mahogany and head east.

We'll come back here when we can scale waterfalls. Slide to the left side, once you get to the next rest spot slide left, down, left to the far left rest spot, down, right, down, left and down to climb a rocky mound where there is an invisible Blue Flute somewhere in the middle area. There are some invisible wall tiles too on the right side, don't mind those. Make your way back to the middle rest stop and slide all the way up and head for the exit on the left.

Erm...sorry Clair, it's Thunderbolt now. One positive thing about not having Dragon's Den around is that Clair just gives us the Badge now instead of being a sore loser and refusing to hand it over until we enter the Den. Good times :) Congratulations, all Johto Badges have been collected and we can now scale waterfalls! There are only 2 waterfalls of note so let's find out what they lead to and then come back to carry on south for the Mountain Road.
((-Return to ICE PATH-)) [HM Strength required]
Above the waterfall is an entrance to a new area, there are no wild encounters. Push the boulder aside and proceed to descend the ladder ahead, it leads to a chamber where we find Kyogre! Catch it if you can.

Head south and surf down the first pool. If you were curious enough to climb the steps and head west before reaching the pool you would've found a guy in green in the northwest area. He's a glitch that will keep disappearing and reappearing and you pick up a Revive when you talk to him. After crossing the first pool carry on to surf over the next one and you'll reach TM35 Flamethrower in the southeast corner. On the southwest side is the ledge that kept us from exploring this area so head back up to the exit and Route 45.

Only one Johto Legendary remains, Ho-Oh, and yet the one guy who has a Rainbow Wing is a regular NPC with no connection to the story of the game haha. Next to it is a Dire Hit and once you jump down the ledge you're back in that final section of this route. So ends our time here in Johto, we got all the Badges but we can't even go west to the Indigo Plateau and challenge the Johto League. Maybe we need the Kanto Badges too before we can face the League? Return to Goldenrod City and prepare to board the Magnet Train. Not only can we take the train to Saffron City or back to Steel City....but we can now travel to Hoenn! Rustboro City specifically. Why don't we pay Hoenn a visit before reaching the final destination Kanto?

Good old Kanto, here we are :) will it be better than Johto? Judging by the Dojo and Silph Co. being locked...I am really worried about Kanto now xD. Damn.

I found out about this just after defeating Surge. The Rockets have left the city and that leaves the curious cave entrance near the Burned Tower open. There are no wild encounters in the cave area, make your way to the southeast corner and pick up a Rainbow Wing. You mean to tell me Giovanni and company were all over Ecruteak but didn't check this cave? Back to the Tin Tower roof and summon the multi-coloured marvel.

We're told that the 5th floor is being redecorated so no access.
Are there any of you who were fans of Pokemon Contests back in the Gen 3 days? I tried them out for some time when I was still new to Gen 3, probably because I thought they were part of the main story. But I lost interest later on, they weren't exactly an alternative to straight up battling. Just something fun for players to do. Next to the Contest Hall is a market stall with the same items you'll find at the Dept. Store 2F:

There's a Cheri Berry tree on the southweast edge of town. The Move Maniac lives right next to the Move Deleter, bring him 2 TinyMushrooms or 1 Big Mushroom to learn some Moves...yeah, if we can even find those in this game xD none so far unless I missed some hidden ones. At the Museum you find a Nugget by the box which is blocking access to the open doorway. And that's all Lilycove has to offer folks, why was it even included in this version of the game? There's no Gym here or anything to make up for that like a special event or something. Back to Kanto.
East of Vermilion is Diglett's Cave and Route 11. We'll cover Route 11 then travel through Diglett's Cave to reach Pewter City and Viridian City and get the Badges. After that we'll head east from Saffron. Make sure to have a Pokemon that knows Cut, we'll need that for when we're on Route 2.

Still a straightforward route leading to the Pokemon League Front Gate. Inside we find 3 paths: north path leads to Victory Road, west path leads to Mt. Silver and south leads to Route 26. Because we have all the Badges now we can go out to climb Mt. Silver right away, but let's save Mt. Silver for the finale.
**NOTE: So...we have a problem. I'm typing this Note much later on, after the League. For those of you who are pretty confident in your current teams you can attempt Mt. Silver immediately (hit CTRL+F and search for [rtms] to get the info) because when you try to get past the Guard after the League he'll say that you don't have enough Badges and deny you entry. The only way through to reach the doorway is by means of the always handy Walk through Walls code. If you are among the many players out there who don't like using codes, even the most useful ones, then you can either try Mt. Silver now or end your game after the League because there is nothing else which counts as Post-Game content. I'll put the Walk through Walls code below for anyone interested, it's a GameShark code just so you know:
509197D3 542975F4
78DA95DF 44018CB4
HMs Surf and Waterfall are required for Mt. Silver. End of Note.
Right now we'll cover Route 26 and then march on to the League. There's a PC available so get ready, HMs Surf and Waterfall required.

So we had to travel to Kanto some other way just to be able to come and check out this natural border spot between the two regions, unbelievable. Make your way to the Johto side's upper left corner, there's a Moon Stone...and that's it. Nothing on the Johto side of Route 27 (you'll see a glitched out Pallet Town where New Bark should be so don't even think about xD). Return to the League Front Gate and we head north. So begins the final arc of our little adventure :)

Congratulations, you've become the NEW Pokemon League Champion! A little lukewarm after the time we've had in this game but hey, you made it :) could've rage-quit ages ago xD, nobody would've blamed you. The Hall of Fame induction follows and the credits roll...
(<<POST-GAME FINALE>>)
We reappear outside the West Academy PokeCenter. Prepare yourself and then make your way back to the League Front Gate. Remember, HMs Surf and Waterfall are required.
**NOTE: I went back to Cerulean to check if we can now enter Cerulean Cave...nope, can't. This time the invisible NPC says not only do you have to be the Champion but you need to have made a "great achievement". I have no idea what that great achievement refers to, given that the story of this game pretty much ended when Giovanni was defeated in Ecruteak. If anyone knows what the "great achievement" requires players to do please contact me (allenchngnzh22@gmail.com)

It's Final Round time, go all the way west until you reach a PokeCenter for any last minute prepping if needed. Then jump down the ledge and SAVE before having a chat with that guy named Gary. Dude, where've you been?? He doesn't even remember why he's here, xD! This guy. We don't even find out about what else he's been up to. He is aware of the legendary Trainer who is somewhere on this mountain, but first we have to prove that we're good enough to meet him. Being Champ clearly isn't enough proof, oh well. One more match against our old friend, here we go.

[xzx] FINAL SECTION & OTHER RAMBLINGS
=====================================
That was Pokemon (Old) White for you ladies and gentlemen, how did you like it? Good? Bad? Somewhere in the middle? Unfortunately for me it's a hack which started out with some promise but because the work on it stopped years ago and was only picked up to be fixed and finished off by someone else just as recently as 2019, what we have here is another game and not what (Old) White might have become. That adds to the age of the game, it's super outdated for a hack whose latest (unofficial) version came out in 2019. So even people who had been waiting and hoping to play the finished (official) version, I wonder if they'll give this finished version a try. There was a story at the start but after Ecruteak players are pretty much going to be free-styling their way through the rest of Johto and then Kanto. Some Bugs and glitches are still present in this version, luckily they aren't the game-breaking type but still...
Any feedback you may have for (Old) White please send it to creator Foullump and also to Hacksrepairman (https://hacksrepairman.blogspot.com/) who took the time to fix and finish the game.

TUNING FOR TOONS: My third and newest series, started in October 2020. This one will cater more to those of my generation (people born in the mid 1980s up to the mid 1990s), it features themes from classic cartoons that were a highlight of our much younger days. I've also thrown in parody commercials from the Grand Theft Auto games and shows like Sheep in the Big City. I recommend listening to each set without looking at the tracklist until the end :) test yourself and find out how many themes you can still recognise (and maybe still sing along to!)

POKEMON - THE JOURNEY OF JANICE: This was an idea I had in early 2019 which I had hoped to turn into a story for a ROMhack someday. I shared the idea around to see if anyone would be interested in teaming up with me to create the game. Months went by, there were people who liked the idea but I didn't hear from anyone who actually wanted to work with me. So I decided to spin out a story from the idea and post it chapter by chapter in the FanFiction section at the PokeCommunity site. That version of the story is a rework of the original form, which looks one of my walkthroughs :) I'll put a link to that original below if you're interested in seeing it but I'll encourage you to follow the reworked version because I'll be changing stuff there.
