Pallet Town and Oak's Lab

Name the player and Rival, choose Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle, clear the first Rival battle, deliver Oak's Parcel, and collect the Pokedex and Town Map.

Source maps

Pallet Town, Pallet Town Player's House 1F, Pallet Town Player's House 2F, Pallet Town Rival's House, Pallet Town Professor Oak's Lab, and Viridian City Mart.

Wild rows19 Trainers3 Items4

Route plan

Pick the starter you actually want to build around; FR/LG gives Charmander Metal Claw support, but Bulbasaur and Squirtle are still the smoothest Brock answers.

Route Notes

  • Starter choice controls every Rival branch: choose Bulbasaur and Rival uses Charmander; choose Squirtle and Rival uses Bulbasaur; choose Charmander and Rival uses Squirtle.
