      I am pretty sure that what they meant to say was that there are no wild battles in Rocket Hideout. Since every route and cave that the player was in up to this point had ranom wild battles. That's my take from that, anyway.

    Oddly enough a couple of the errors in this guide relate back to prior versions of Kanto.
    1) In Red, Blue and Yellow you get Ice Beam from the girl atop the tower, as the guide says.
    2) In Yellow version Rock and Fire Type does help against Koga because his entire team is part Bug Type.

Ended up getting platinum later and never lost that card. I was so dumb when I used to play diamond ahahaha rookie moves. Got soul silver too but its all a blur in my childhood.

    I remember fighting the Elite Four numerous times in Platinum (my first Pokémon game) as a kid and just BARELY getting through it without healing once and I was super excited... And then my heart sank when I found out I still had to fight the champion. And I'm pretty sure I knew that I *could* heal between battles, but it just never occurred to me to do so for some reason, so I inevitably lost and had to start all over again. And again. And again. And AGAIN!! Eventually I did start healing between battles and was able to finally do it within one more small handful of attempts, but it was ridiculous

    I had bought a copy of FireRed when it was brand new, birthday money and everything, and on the box it said that it came with a copy of the wireless adapter so you could trade pokemon with your friends. So, my surprise when I opened up the box and found only the game... was immeasurable and quickly built to frustration before giving way to apathy since, at the time, I had no friends I could trade with anyway. It still upsets me to this day and makes me rather glad that the newer consoles come with that kind of thing built into the game/console rather than needing a separate adapter.

    I can confirm that here in Spain, the "official Nintendo Acción guide" for Pokemon Red and Blue did sugest to catch a digglet before facing Lt. Surge, recommended for an easy battle against Brock using grass or water moves and to check the north route prior to facing Misty if you didn't have enough level.
    It also recommended to get the Body Slam tm in the SS Anne and teach it to a powerful attacking pokemon, and mentioning Raichu as a good candidate, or to save it for Snorlax, as another good candidate for the tm..
    IIRC, it missed telling the players to catch a nidoran if your starter was Charmander, so you could use Double Kick against Brock, though. And they didn't know what Focus Energy did, or was suposed to do, because they didn't mention it was bugged, and all they said was that it could take down a pokemon instantly (a bit like a OHKO move) if used constantly. Of course, it never worked like that, as it was suposed to raise the crit rate and it didn't even do that, so eventually my friends and I just ignored that bit of information from the guide.
    edit: Also, as an spaniard, I'm contractually enforced to groan at that Gyaratres joke. Just saying.

    Poison, Fire, Rock, is a fine suggestion for the gym. Rock resists poison, poison can't get the poisoned status and Fire is super effective against bug and grass, which are common types that are given to poison types. They should probably have suggested Psychic, however, what they said is ok.

    The only road block at Silph Co. is Lavender Tower, which is road blocked by the Rocket Hideout. You can do all of these events before fighting Lt. Surge!!

    I think Nintendo would have laughed for an hour-long before approving it.

    25:15 Yeah there’s a grunt in the way of silph cp if you haven’t beaten the rocket hideot yet. When you get to him after that he is sleeping on guard duty so you can pass

      Mimikyu 17 Personally I find the whole burmy line to be underwhelming (Burmy and Wormadam a ton more than Mothim is) but mothim does have one of the best shinies of all time

    Funny thing, that magikarp you buy, is the large size the fisherman below Lavender looking for big Magikarp likes.

      If he doesn't have "hammer away" in there at least to honor Eric, then I'm not buying it. Okay, I might still buy it.

      This whole video I was thinking “I could probably write better” but then I remembered I’m lazy and so the fact that this book even exists, erroneous as it may be, is better than I could do. So if Mikey makes his own guidebook I will be thoroughly impressed.

      I see it now, if he ever writes a guidebook, and there's a guide on moves, every move that isn't 100% accurate is gonna say 50% accurate
