From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
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.
New Bark Town
Elm's Lab
Professor Elm thanks you for helping with his research. As a token of his appreciation, he rewards you with a Master Ball! He claims that it is only given to recognized Pokémon researchers, but he thinks that you could make a better use of it than he can. This ultimate Poké Ball catches any Pokémon without fail, regardless of the target. It is usually best to save it for Ho-Oh, Lugia, or the legendary beasts.
With that done, surf east across the lake to reach Route 27.
Route 27 (west)
Route 27 connects New Bark Town and Route 26. In addition, it is the first accessible part of the neighboring Kanto region, and a man on the east side of the lake is quick to remind you of this. A ledge in the route's center hinders eastbound travel, forcing Trainers to detour through Tohjo Falls.

Tohjo Falls
As Waterfall cannot be used in the field without the Rising Badge, Tohjo Falls acts not only as a link between the two regions, but also as a barrier to prevent all but the strongest Trainers from reaching Indigo Plateau.

Route 27 (east)
Outside the cave is a house that belongs to an elderly woman. Speak to her when your lead Pokémon is devoted to you to receive TM37 (Sandstorm). Continue east to the bridge, then surf south to reach a whirlpool; TM22 (SolarBeam) lies on this tiny shoreline.

The Locals
In the northern house, a woman will heal your Pokémon to full health. In the southern house, which belongs to the Week Siblings, there is a note that reveals the residents' locations.
Pokémon League Reception Gate
Inside the Reception Gate, the first guard checks all passing Trainers for the eight Badges of Johto. Beyond that, two other guards block the exits to Mt. Silver and Route 22. Head through the north doors to enter Victory Road.
Victory Road
Victory Road, a difficult tunnel separating the Reception Gate and Indigo Plateau, earned its name because all Trainers passing through are aiming for victory at the Pokémon League. The cave was once a grueling ordeal, but recent cave-ins have left the area diminished and devoid of any Trainers.
