This is the Bulbapedia walkthrough for Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
These pages follow the remade Nintendo DS iteration, not Pokémon Gold and Silver. The guide for those games can be found here.


Route 16

 
Route 16

Route 16 is a quiet road, and the northern end of Cycling Road. Two uncommon Pokémon species—the Fire-type Slugma and the Dark/Flying Murkrow—can be found here. Slugma can be found at all hours, while Murkrow only appears at night.


Vacation House

There is a single house located here, nestled back in the trees. Speak with the old man inside once per day to learn a new trendy phrase.

Route 17

 
Route 17

Route 17 is Cycling Road itself, stretching between Route 16 in the north and Route 18 in the south. The place is a favorite hangout spot for Bikers, and Pokémon like Grimer and Slugma can be found in the tall grass.


Route 18

 
Route 18

Route 18 is the southern end of Cycling Road. Fight a few Trainers and head into Fuchsia City.


Fuchsia City

 
Fuchsia City

The Safari Zone that once occupied the north side of Fuchsia City has relocated to Johto, beyond Routes 47 and 48. Pal Park, a preserve where Trainers may gather their Pokémon from past adventures, has opened in its place. Like always, the Fuchsia Gym stands ready to accept all challengers on the south side of town.


Pal Park

 
Pal Park

In Pal Park, you can gather six Pokémon at a time from any previous adventure, and import them to the preserve. The park is divided into five different areas—field, forest, mountain, pond, and sea—and once inside, each migrated Pokémon appears in the area that best resembles its natural habitat.

In addition to transferring Pokémon from other regions, the preserve also utilizes a rating system to calculate the value of the migrated Pokémon. The final score is reported at the end of the Catching Show by the Park Ranger, who hands out a random Berry depending on your total. Rarer and legendary Pokémon receive higher values, while common Pokémon receive lower values. Timing is also a factor; more points are awarded for completing the challenge quickly. On your first visit, the current record-holder is Silver with 2,000 points.

The Juggler

The Juggler on the north side of town likes to collect Shards, and will trade three different Berries for each one. The Berries obtained correspond to the shard's color.

Fuchsia Gym

 
Fuchsia Gym

Fuchsia City Pokémon Gym
Leader: Janine

The Poisonous Ninja Master

The Poison-specialist Fuchsia Gym is the same ninja training ground that it always has been, complete with invisible walls. However, Koga's promotion to the Elite Four left a vacant Gym Leader position, a title now held by his daughter, Janine. She and her Gym Trainers are adept at disguise, dressing alike to conceal the Gym Leader's true location. Psychic-type attacks will see the greatest effectiveness, but as many of the Pokémon here are part-Grass or part-Ground as well, they are also vulnerable to Fire and Water moves, respectively. As Janine is still inexperienced, her Pokémon's levels have only reached the 40s, so almost any attack from your battle-tested team can take them out quickly. In addition, four of her five Pokémon—all but Weezing—share a weakness to Rock-type moves. Look out for Toxic, Confuse Ray, and Explosion, and cure status ailments as soon as possible.

Defeated, Janine awards you the Soul Badge. She also hands out TM84 (Poison Jab) as a prize.

The ocean route leading south from the city is blocked by debris that landed here after the eruption on Cinnabar Island. The only other way out of Fuchsia is east to Route 15.
