Violet City & Sprout Tower

Ah, Violet City. One of my favorite cities, and also the first one that's actually important. The only real difference between the original and the remake's version of this city is the beginning drum beat in the music. ;o

Let's start with where you enter. The Southeast Gate--right by it is the Pokémon center, and a weird juggler who allows you to change your Wi-Fi sprite, if I'm not mistaken.
Southwest of the Pokémon center is the house in which a school kid trades you his Onix [nicknamed Rocky in the originals] for a Bellsprout. [You can catch them in the route to the right of Violet City, or the route right below it.]
If you exit through the Northeast gate, talk to a fat guy standing by the Sudowoodo and get Rock Smash from him. You'll be able to use it once you defeat Falkner. However, you can't challenge the Gym right away; you need to go to the Sprout Tower first. [Don't worry, it's good experience.]

To the north of Violet City is the Bellsprout Tower. To get there, cross over the bridge connecting the mainland to the island and then the forest. [It's called a tower for a reason, by the way... o_o]
This is the first floor of the tower.
Second floor. [The monks are trainers, by the way.] At night, you can find wild Gastly. During any other time of the day, there are only Rattata that will appear. Challenge the Sprout Tower at night, if you can.
Third floor. You fight at least two monks here [the third one in the upper right is a bit stronger than the others, and has a Hoothoot as well, but fighting him is optional]. Move north and you'll find Silver challenging the Elder there. He loses, and the monk tells him it is because he lacks love for his Pokémon [which Silver just shrugs off, of course].

After he leaves, you can battle the Elder for TM 70, Flash. He's stronger than every other monk in the tower, but still not as powerful as you should be by this time.

Now that you've defeated the Elder monk, you can challenge Falkner. [Click Me!]His Pokémon have been strengthened this time around, but not too much. He gives you the TM for Roost upon victory, and also the ability to use Rock Smash out of battle.

Once Falkner's defeated, you get a call from Professor Elm telling you to meet his assistant in the PokéMart. He gives you a Togepi egg. Leave the PokéMart, and you'll find a Kimono Lady who wants your attention. Deal with her unnecessary cameo and exit through the South gate.

There are a few extra things in Violet City that you should remember. Once you get Surf, come back here. There are items to the right and left of the Sprout Tower.

There's also a Trainer's School here in Violet City. To the right of it is a boulder. Smash it and find the hidden Hyper Potion.

I got bored doing this, so I took a picture of Falkner moonwalking on water.
Yes.

Oh, this is surely a pleasant thread.

I enjoy seeing the graphics. (: (: (:

I'm glad! If I can make the viewers of my threads happy, then that's enough to satisfy me.

its not out in england yet, out march 14th


cant wait

He imported it or something else that can't be said here.

shhhh no one needs to knowww

I'm thinking of doing Azalea Town next. The Slowpoke Well has potential for interest, I suppose. Plus I can document Silver again! Rivals are always fun to include.

Also, I don't think he stole it either.

Ryuujin, just submit VIDEOS to here. it'll get your submission count up...I think. If you submit walkthroughs for this you will earn my sub points.

Invert, it's not about sub points. It's about helping the people that want it. I don't care if my submission count goes up; doing this is clearly a hobby, not a job. I don't want to change the feel nor do I want to change my intentions for doing this.

That's not the point I was trying to get across.

I'm just saying Walkthroughs and Videos would also help people too.

I don't like to video tape my actions, haha. Unless it's a tutorial.
Invert, keep in mind that this is just a quick summary of places, not a walkthrough. I made the Sprout Tower subplot seem like a mini-walkthrough, but it's not. It's just a documentation of what happens--like I always document.

i think you should just keep doing what your doing, for the people who really want this game (like me)

keep it up!

Do one for Goldenrod City.

yeah goldenrod, or what it's like in kanto there

I was actually going to make a video for Lukie of Goldenrod City. The video for him, and the music--Goldenrod's original GSC theme played on the piano, guitar, and bass by me--for Shadow_Cresselia_101. <3

reading the reviews makes me want the game more and more

Yeah...that's what reviews do. That's why DeSMuME is your friend. <3

just keep doing the reviews before the game comes out their good.

I know. It's not as much help if you've already explored the documented area. xD

have you completed the game?

Completed the Johto portion of it, anyway.
I also beat Red without cheating before I challenged Lance. I won because I'm just that awesome. <3
And yeah, my Pokémon were at least 30 levels below his.
