Appendix:Gold and Silver walkthrough/Section 20

This is the Bulbapedia walkthrough for Pokémon Gold and Silver.
These pages follow the original Game Boy Color iteration, not Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver. The guide for those games can be found here.


Route 7

Route 7

Route 7 is a short path that links Saffron City to the east and Celadon City to the west. The western end of the second Underground Path emerges here, but authorities have closed the tunnel indefinitely because of rowdy Trainers battling inside.


Celadon City

Celadon City

Celadon City is located between Route 7 to the east and Route 16 to the west. The Celadon Department Store in the northwest offers all kinds of items for sale, and the Celadon Mansion acts as a hotel. Visitors can try their luck at the Game Corner in the heart of the city and redeem their winnings at the Prize Corner next door. The Celadon Gym stands on a hill in the southwest part of town.


Celadon Mansion

After the sun sets, follow the path behind the Pokémon Center and enter the Celadon Mansion through the back door. Speak to the man on the roof to hear a scary story, and receive TM03 (Curse) for listening to the entire thing.

Restaurant

The restaurant on the south side of town is currently hosting an eat-a-thon. Check the trash can by the counter to find some Leftovers, which restore a bit of the holder's health every turn.

Game Corner

Game Corner

The prizes offered next door are expensive, so it will require a large number of coins to receive all of them. Coins may be purchased at the counter in sets of 50 for $1,000 each, and sets of 500 for $1,000 each. Much of the building is occupied by traditional slot machines, while the first two available rows from the left feature a card flip game, instead.

Prize Corner

Prize Corner

Like the Goldenrod Game Corner, this one also offers rare Pokémon and items as prizes.

Celadon Gym

Celadon Gym
Celadon City Pokémon Gym
Leader: Erika

The Nature-Loving Princess


The Celadon Gym specializes in Grass-type Pokémon. Grass-type moves are super effective against Ground-, Rock-, and Water-type Pokémon, while Grass-type Pokémon are weak to Bug-, Fire-, Flying-, Ice-, and Poison-type moves.

The Gym is designed as a greenhouse, with many flower arrangements on display. There are no puzzles to solve, and only a few Gym Trainers to defeat in order to reach the Gym Leader.

Erika leads with her Tangela. Its Bind move restricts the target's movement, as does Sleep Powder. Its Special Defense is low, so prioritize using Fire and Ice moves against it for greatest effect. Three of Jumpluff's moves steal the target's HP, while the fourth sharply reduces its Speed. As a Grass/Flying Pokémon, it takes massive damage from Ice-type moves. As plants rely on the sun for nutrients, Erika's remaining two Pokémon rely on Sunny Day to prepare their combination moves. Victreebel regains more HP than normal under harsh sunlight with Synthesis, and Bellossom does the same. Under these conditions, Bellossom can launch its strongest move, SolarBeam, without first taking a turn to charge it.

Celadon Gym
Rainbow Badge





After the battle, Erika awards you the Rainbow Badge. She also hands out TM19 (Giga Drain) as a prize.
