Cerulean City

Having cleared the Sevii Islands, there is only one place left to explore: Cerulean Cave, a mysterious place on the northwest edge of Cerulean City. To get there, visitors must Surf southward from Route 24.

Cerulean Cave

Cerulean Cave, 1F

Cerulean Cave, 2F

Cerulean Cave, B1F

Cerulean Cave is a mysterious cavern located in the northwest part of Cerulean City. Only the most powerful Trainers who have entered the Hall of Fame are allowed to enter due to the powerful wild Pokémon inside. The sprawling cave network is unforgiving, so be sure to prepare well. Pack the Super Rod and stock up on Ultra Balls, and bring the Master Ball as well. It is here that the genetically-engineered Pokémon from Cinnabar Island's Pokémon Mansion fled after escaping the facility.

1F

Head to the water's edge and use Surf to reach the island in the northeast corner, then climb the ladder to 2F.

2F (Northeast)

Follow the trail to reach a Full Restore behind a pair of breakable rocks, and return to 1F.

1F

Surf westward and climb onto the western ridge. Collect the Nugget near the north ladder, then climb up the south ladder.

Head northwest to pick up a Max Elixir. Continue westward to reach the ladder in the middle of 1F.

2F (Center)

B1F

Go east to reach a Max Revive in the northeast corner. Turn south and climb onto the rocky ridge to pick up the nearby Ultra Ball. Continue southwestward and use Surf to find Mewtwo, alone on its island.

VS Mewtwo

Not only is Mewtwo the strongest Pokémon around, but it has already reached level 70. As a Psychic-type Pokémon, it is vulnerable to Bug-, Ghost-, and Dark-type attacks. The legendary Pokémon can restore its health repeatedly with Recover, so inflicting status ailments are a must. Not only will this make Mewtwo easier to catch, but Sleep, Freezing, and Paralysis will prevent it from replenishing its HP. It will not let itself be caught easily, so either use the Master Ball when the battle begins or be prepared to go through more than a few Ultra Balls.

With the Pokémon League defeated and Cerulean Cave cleared, the only thing left to do is to complete the Pokédex. There are 386 different Pokémon species that have been discovered so far, leaving plenty of training left to do!

Indigo Plateau

By the time Celio fully upgrades his Network Machine, Lorelei has returned from Four Island. Each of these five elite Trainers have continued pushing their Pokémon to new heights, with higher levels, new moves, and have even swapped in some new party members.

Lorelei

Lorelei has swapped out her Slowbro in favor of Piloswine, while her Lapras and Dewgong have learned Thunder and Signal Beam, respectively. Fighting- and Electric-type Pokémon work well against her team, but be careful of Psychic and Earthquake.

Elite Four Lorelei Indigo Plateau FireRed and LeafGreen Reward: $6600 Types: Water Ice Ability: Thick Fat Held item: None Dewgong♂ Lv.64 Surf Water   --       Ice Beam Ice   --       Signal Beam Bug   --       Double Team Normal   --       Types: Water Ice Ability: Shell Armor Held item: None Cloyster♂ Lv.63 Rain Dance Water   --       Surf Water   --       Ice Beam Ice   --       Supersonic Normal   --       Types: Ice Ground Ability: Oblivious Held item: None Piloswine♂ Lv.63 Earthquake Ground   --       Blizzard Ice   --       Double-Edge Normal   --       Rock Slide Rock   --       Types: Ice Psychic Ability: Oblivious Held item: None Jynx♀ Lv.66 Psychic Psychic   --       Ice Beam Ice   --       Lovely Kiss Normal   --       Attract Normal   --       Types: Water Ice Ability: Water Absorb Held item: Cheri Berry Lapras♂ Lv.66 Psychic Psychic   --       Thunder Electric   --       Surf Water   --       Ice Beam Ice   --

Bruno

Both of Bruno's Onix have evolved into Steelix, but their low Special Defense leaves them vulnerable to Fire and Water moves. His three other Pokémon now know Rock Slide, making this a hazardous battle for Flying Pokémon. Psychic attacks are still useful, and Psychic Pokémon only need to fear his Steelix's Crunch.

Elite Four Bruno Indigo Plateau FireRed and LeafGreen Reward: $6800 Types: Steel Ground Ability: Sturdy Held item: None Steelix♂ Lv.65 Earthquake Ground   --       Rock Tomb Rock   --       Iron Tail Steel   --       Crunch Dark   --       Type: Fighting Unknown Ability: Keen Eye Held item: None Hitmonchan♂ Lv.65 Sky Uppercut Fighting   --       Mach Punch Fighting   --       Rock Slide Rock   --       Counter Fighting   --       Type: Fighting Unknown Ability: Limber Held item: None Hitmonlee♂ Lv.65 Mega Kick Normal   --       Foresight Normal   --       Earthquake Ground   --       Rock Slide Rock   --       Types: Steel Ground Ability: Sturdy Held item: None Steelix♂ Lv.66 DragonBreath Dragon   --       Iron Tail Steel   --       Earthquake Ground   --       Crunch Dark   --       Type: Fighting Unknown Ability: Guts Held item: Persim Berry Machamp♂ Lv.68 Brick Break Fighting   --       Cross Chop Fighting   --       Earthquake Ground   --       Rock Slide Rock   --

Agatha

Agatha's Golbat has evolved into Crobat, and she has swapped out her Haunter in favor of Misdreavus. Her Arbok has learned Earthquake, and both Gengar know Psychic. In addition, her Misdreavus and her second Gengar know Thunderbolt.

Elite Four Agatha Indigo Plateau FireRed and LeafGreen Reward: $7000 Types: Ghost Poison Ability: Levitate Held item: None Gengar♂ Lv.66 Confuse Ray Ghost   --       Shadow Punch Ghost   --       Hypnosis Psychic   --       Psychic Psychic   --       Types: Poison Flying Ability: Inner Focus Held item: None Crobat♂ Lv.66 Confuse Ray Ghost   --       Shadow Ball Ghost   --       Air Cutter Flying   --       Sludge Bomb Poison   --       Type: Ghost Unknown Ability: Levitate Held item: None Misdreavus♂ Lv.65 Shadow Ball Ghost   --       Thunderbolt Electric   --       Psychic Psychic   --       Attract Normal   --       Type: Poison Unknown Ability: Intimidate Held item: None Arbok♂ Lv.68 Double Team Normal   --       Sludge Bomb Poison   --       Earthquake Ground   --       Giga Drain Grass   --       Types: Ghost Poison Ability: Levitate Held item: Chesto Berry Gengar♂ Lv.70 Shadow Ball Ghost   --       Sludge Bomb Poison   --       Psychic Psychic   --       Thunderbolt Electric   --

Lance

One of Lance's Dragonair has evolved into Dragonite, while the other has been replaced by Kingdra. Kingdra's Water/Dragon typing means that it is only vulnerable to Dragon moves, while it can counter Dragon-type Pokémon with Ice Beam. Both of his Dragonite know moves to counter Water and Water/Ice Pokémon that may attempt using Ice moves. His Gyarados can cover its weakness to Electric Pokémon with Earthquake, while his Aerodactyl can counter Ice-type Pokémon with AncientPower.

Elite Four Lance Indigo Plateau FireRed and LeafGreen Reward: $7200 Types: Water Flying Ability: Intimidate Held item: None Gyarados♂ Lv.68 Dragon Dance Dragon   --       Earthquake Ground   --       Thunder Wave Electric   --       Hyper Beam Normal   --       Types: Dragon Flying Ability: Inner Focus Held item: None Dragonite♂ Lv.66 Flamethrower Fire   --       Dragon Claw Dragon   --       Earthquake Ground   --       Hyper Beam Normal   --       Types: Water Dragon Ability: Swift Swim Held item: None Kingdra♂ Lv.66 Dragon Dance Dragon   --       Surf Water   --       Ice Beam Ice   --       Hyper Beam Normal   --       Types: Rock Flying Ability: Rock Head Held item: None Aerodactyl♂ Lv.70 Aerial Ace Flying   --       AncientPower Rock   --       Earthquake Ground   --       Hyper Beam Normal   --       Types: Dragon Flying Ability: Inner Focus Held item: Persim Berry Dragonite♂ Lv.72 Thunderbolt Electric   --       Outrage Dragon   --       Ice Beam Ice   --       Hyper Beam Normal   --

Rival Battle 9

Blue has swapped out his Pidgeot and Rhydon for Heracross and Tyranitar. Most of his Pokémon also have moves to cover their weaknesses. Heracross takes massive damage from Flying attacks, but avoid using Flying-type Pokémon as it can fight back with Rock Tomb. Similarly, Tyranitar suffers massive damage from Fighting moves, but Fighting-type Pokémon will be vulnerable to Aerial Ace, a Flying-type attack. His Arcanine, Gyarados, and Exeggutor are much the same as before. Arcanine can counter Rock Pokémon with Iron Tail, and Gyarados can retaliate against Electric Pokémon with Earthquake. Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur all have ways to counter their weaknesses, so be wary of sending in a Pokémon that may seemingly have the advantage at first.
