[[Mahogany Town]] is a small, quiet town in northern Johto. There is no official Poké Mart here, but the shop in the center of town offers the usual [[Poké Ball]]s and [[Potion]]s in addition to unusual items like {{DL|Valuable item|TinyMushroom}}s and {{DL|Valuable item|SlowpokeTail}}s. A man on the east side offers to sell you a [[RageCandyBar]] for {{pdollar}}300, though buying one doesn't let you leave the town. The [[Mahogany Gym]] is blocked off as well, so the only thing to do is head north.

{{rt|43|Johto}} links Mahogany Town to a major landmark, the [[Lake of Rage]]. There are two paths that lead to the lake; the path through the gate forces you to pay a {{pdollar}}1,000 toll to [[Team Rocket]], while the other winds its way through the tall grass and past plenty of Trainers.

The [[Lake of Rage]] is the largest lake in the region, and exists alongside a maze of trees to the west. The area is known for its {{p|Gyarados}} population, and the most well-known resident is swimming just offshore. Check on your Poké Ball supply and swim out to meet the [[Red Gyarados]]. You should try to catch it, as the odds of finding another with the same [[Shiny Pokémon|coloration]] are very low. After you battle it, you see a {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|Red Scale}} floating on the water; you can trade this to Mr. Pokémon back on {{rt|30|Johto}} for an {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. Share}}.

Just as you enter the shop, you see [[Lance]]'s {{p|Dragonite}} using {{m|Hyper Beam}} to ensure cooperation from the shopkeeper. Lance confirms that the strange radio signal is coming from this location, and moves a cabinet to reveal a stairway leading down into the [[Team Rocket HQ]].

Each of the five Pokémon statues on this floor has a hidden camera that alerts the Rocket Grunts in the security center. Whenever you step in front of one, the same two Rockets show up to attack you.

{{trainerfooter|road|II}}

Take the first left and head south to the security center. Defeat Scientist Jed, grab the {{DL|Battle item|X Accuracy}}, and examine the computer to deactivate the security cameras. Leave the room and turn east to find a {{DL|Potion|Hyper Potion}}. Turn right and walk along the south hallway, where you'll find a {{DL|Valuable item|Nugget}}.  Go down the stairs in the southwest.

Lance is waiting for you here, and heals your Pokémon before running off. Beat up the two Rocket Grunts nearby, and take the southeast stairs to the lowest floor.

Here Lance informs you that two passwords are required to reach the boss. Grab the {{DL|Vitamin|Protein}} just north of here, then battle the scientist and the female Rocket in the southeast room. When defeated, she gives up the first password: <sc>{{DL|Valuable item|SlowpokeTail}}</sc>. One down, one to go!  Continue west, fight Scientist Mitch, and enter the southwest room. Defeat the Rocket here to learn the second password, <sc>{{p|Raticate|RaticateTail}}</sc>. Pick up the {{DL|Battle item|Dire Hit}} and the {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Full Heal}} by the potted plants, then head north. Grab the {{DL|Status ailment healing item|Ice Heal}} in the hallway, and climb up the northeast stairs.

Head all the way to the west, where you'll be challenged by another Rocket. Go down the stairs to reach the boss's room.

When you approach, {{ga|Silver|your rival}} appears and insists that he is the one who will eliminate [[Team Rocket]]. Take a quick detour up the south stairs to get {{TM|46|Thief}}, then enter the two passwords at his door to enter the boss's office. The Executive here talks about [[Giovanni]] disbanding the group [[Generation I|three years ago]], and how the organization has continued on since then, planning for his return.

Defeated, he runs off to warn the others that their plans are in trouble. Talk to the {{p|Murkrow}} in the corner to learn the password for the generator room, <sc>Hail Giovanni</sc>.

Backtrack to the generator room on the second floor.  After entering the password, an Executive and a Grunt ambush you and prepare for a 2-on-1 battle, but their plan is short-lived. [[Lance]] shows up with his {{p|Dragonite}}, and the two of you each battle a single Rocket.

They claim their experiment was a success, regardless of their defeat here. Lance inspects the generator, and tells you that in order to shut it down, the six {{p|Electrode}} powering it must be removed. Catch or defeat the three on the left to put an end to [[Team Rocket]]'s plan. With the machine disabled, Lance rewards you with {{HM|06|Whirlpool}}. Follow him upstairs and take the warp tile back to the entrance.

With Mahogany free of Rockets, you can finally challenge the Gym.

{{sign|RBY|MAHOGANY TOWN <br> POKéMON GYM <br> LEADER: PRYCE <br> The Teacher of <br> Winter's Harshness}}

The [[Mahogany Gym]] specializes in {{type|Ice}} Pokémon, and [[Pryce]] has installed frozen tiles to thwart all but the most determined Trainers. The most direct route to the Gym Leader can be made in six moves. Stand by the Poké Ball statue on the left, and slide up twice to the first Boarder. Slide right, down, left, up, and right again to meet Pryce. {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Fighting}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type|Steel}} attacks are the most effective against Ice-types, but {{type|Electric}} attacks are also effective against the {{p|Seel}} and {{p|Shellder}} families. Avoid bringing {{t|Grass}}-, {{t|Flying}}-, and {{type|Ground}} Pokémon unless you want a challenge.

[[Pryce]] rewards your victory with the {{badge|Glacier}}, which increases your Pokémon's {{stat|Special Attack}} and {{stat|Special Defense}}, and enables the use of {{m|Whirlpool}} outside of battle. He also gives you {{TM|16|Icy Wind}}, a symbol of winter's harshness. Seven badges down, one to go!

When you leave the Gym, {{prof|Elm}} calls you about strange radio broadcasts that mention Team Rocket. It seems that the gang has one more trick up their sleeve, so fly back to [[Goldenrod City]] to finally put an end to their plans.
