INFORMATION

 And THAT'S NOT ALL!!!

 VERSION SPECIALTYS:

Know how Arbok can't be found in the blue version and Persian can't be found in the red version? Well, the same tradition came to Gold and Silver, too. Here is a list of the 2 version's exclusive "only-one-version" Pokemon:

There are even some Pokemon that were in Red and Blue (old) and are in only one versions of the Gold and Silver. How confusing can this get?

These Pokemon are bug Pokemon that can only be found in the Bug-catching contest for that version. Here they are:

Still yet, there are Pokemon that cannot be caught in either Gold OR Silver, And they're all old, as you probably guessed. So this means you'll need the time capsule to trade with them. The tough part is, who would want to trade a rare Pokemon like Blastoise or Kabutops? This looks like a job for... cloning!!! (for more information, see "Codes: Cloning". Click on the Codes area at the main site.)

  SPECIAL EVOLUTIONS:

Unlike the old days of Blue, Red and Yellow, where the only options were to either evolve by level, use a stone, or trade, there are many new ways of evolving. Here are the old ways and the new ways that are both in Gold and Silver (to evolve):

There are 2 new evolution processes. Trading with items is easy one you have a friend and the item. Of coarse, it would be a lot easier if you did the cloning technique. Anyhow, Taming (and moods) are much harder. One of the best things to do to get one of your Pokemon to evolve by tameness is to take them to the Pokemon Salon in the Underground Tunnel of Goldenrod City. Once every week, if you focus on one Pokemon to take to the salon, your Pokemon will evolve by tameness eventually. How do I know if my Pokemon is tamed, liked, hated, or loved by me as a trainer? Go to the building in Goldenrod City that is along the route to the Bike Shop. In the tame building, if the lady says, "It really seems to trust you", you know It'll evolve real soon!!

Here is a chart of Pokemon evolved with items:

Here is a list of tameness and moods, and Pokemon that evolve by them:

*Most baby Pokemon evolve into their grown-up selves with tameness.

Swarms appear when you talk to certain people and in about a week these hard-to-find Pokemon go from 1% on the scale to nearly 95%.

Here is a list of the Pokemon found in swarms:

 Dunsparce

And here's the people who will call you if you battle them and reserve their number:

Pokemon breeding is an important new role in Gold and Silver. Give a Male and female (or a Ditto) to the daycare center just south of Goldenrod City and let them stay for a while. If your Pokemon get along, They will lay an egg. The baby Pokemon are Pichu, Smoochum, Cleffa, Igglybuff, Elekid, Togepi, Magby, and Tyrogue (Missingno in Gold and Silver). The only way to breed a Jynx is to use a Ditto (since Jynx is always female). Babies like Pichu can be breeded normally by using males and females.

 NEW! POKEMON GLOSSARY

(Not just a glossary for Gameboy) Here is a glossary in alphabetical order to help you understand the world on Pokemon more (if you are a beginner):

Animé: A Japanese style of cartoon, like Pokemon. Anime is different then American cartoons in many ways and appeals to a wider audience of kids then American cartoons.

Apricorn: New items to Gold/Silver that can be found on trees and can be turned into balls by Kurt in Azalea town by giving them to him. These new balls include the Lure ball, Heavy ball and friend ball. Each ball has a different power (For the complete list, go to the Gold/Silver Section: Azalea Town)

Ash: Main Character of the Pokemon TV Show.

Berries: These are items in not only the Gold/Silver but also in every other version. They are commonly found, and they restore HP for wounded Pokemon.

Breeding: New to Gold/Silver, Breeding is where red-hot Poke Love comes in. Two Pokemon have love and then lay an egg. Only certain Pokemon can lay eggs, though. They are Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Wigglytuff, Clefairy, Clefable, Jynx, Electabuzz and Magmar (some others might be parents but the eggs are already delivered to you.) Get 2 of the same kind and 2 with different genders (one male and one female) and bring them both to the Daycare on Route 34. Most of the time they will get along and have a baby.

Brock: A character from the TV show that left in the Orange Islands and then came back in the Johto Journeys. He is also the Pewter City Gym leader (in the Gameboy.)

Cable Club: The Cable Clubs are located on the second floor of the Pokemon Center. This is where you trade / battle with your friends with the trade-link cable.

Cartridge: As almost everyone knows, it is the device of machinery that you put into the Gameboy (Gold Cartridge and Silver Cartridge) and in short is simply said as "cart".

Celebi: Celebi is the #251 Pokemon and matches mew in rareness. He is a grass/psychic type Pokemon, and unless you have the rare "Game Brain by Pelican" cheat system which you have probley never heard of, the only way to get him is in a giveaway. If you find another trainer who has Celebi, you should defiantly get together and clone it, so that he/she can trade you the Celebi and at the same time he/she would still have it. That's what you have to do to catch this elusive Mew-like Character.

Crystal: A new shiny Revised Version of the Gold/Silver versions. Just like the Yellow version was revised from the Red/Blue, the Crystal is revised from the Gold/Silver. The Crystal version is basically the same as the Gold/Silver only with a few slight adjustments; you can play as a male or female, there are new buildings, etc.

Dark/Steel Types: These are new types of Pokemon for the Gold/Silver versions. They were invented to even out the tide because psychics were the leading type. Dark types only come out at night and steel is a type that is Strong against Ice but is weak against electric.

Elite Five: A group of people at the end of the game that you have to defeat. They are made up of Will, Koga, Bruno, Karen and Lance. They all have Pokemon level 40 are higher and each one specializes in a different Pokemon. For example, Karen mainly has Dark types (even though they all have a slight mix of types). In the old red and blue versions, it was called the "Elite Four" and there were even different people. They were Lorelei, Bruno, Agatha and Lance. Now it's all different.

Elm (Prof. Elm): He's like Professor Oak only he's in Johto. He is almost exactly like Oak, like the fact that he gives out 3 different Pokemon and you to choose one. He is in the Gold/Silver versions.

Evolution: When a Pokemon evolves (grows) into another Pokemon through trading, experience, trading with items, tameness or with stones. Evolved Pokemon are stronger then the unevolved usually. Some Pokemon don't evolve at all, and they are usually the rare, valuable and powerful ones.

Evolution Stones: These stones evolve Pokemon. All of them are based on types except for one (the Sun Stone, only in Gold/Silver). Altogether, there is the Fire Stone, Thunder Stone, Water Stone, Leaf Stone, Moon Stone and Sun Stone. They are all very rare and hard to get (especially in Gold/Silver.)

EXP (Experience): A Pokemon becomes more skilled in battle and can grow a level when its experience level rises. At level 100, experience is maxed out. With each battle your Pokemon will get more experienced.

Faint: What a Pokemon does in battle if it looses all its HP (Power).

Freeze: What sometimes happens to a Pokemon when an ice attack is used on it. If the Pokemon is frozen, it will be unable to move at all until either the battle is over or the you have an un-freezing item with you.

Gameboy Advance: A new Gameboy system with better graphics. Pokemon games and other games can be played on this hi-tech Gameboy now wider then before.

Gamecube: Game cube is a new Nintendo system where there are more "bits" of technology and games are now CDs. It is for the big TV screen. It came out in the Fall of 2001 in America. A few games include "Pikmin" , "Super Smash Bros. 2", "Mario Kart Double Dash", and "Pokemon Colosseum" .

GB, GBC and GBA: Stands for "Game Boy", "Game Boy Color" and "Game Boy Advance".

Gary: The Rival of Ash in the Pokemon TV show.

Glitch City: A glitch that happens in the red, blue and yellow versions through a sequence of going in and out of the safari building. For more information, see Glitch City in the Codes section.

Gyms: Found in Cities and Towns, gyms are where you battle trainers and the gym leader to get a badge to go farther in the game.

Gym Leaders: There are 16 in the game. They are found in the gyms, of coarse.

Headbutting: A new formula to Gold/Silver, where when you get the Headbutting TM either from the Ilex forest or in the Dept. Store in Goldenrod City, you can shake small trees with a Pokemon that knows it. Pokemon that fall out of these trees include Aipom, Heracross, and Pineco.

Health points (HP): These are the points or measurement of how healthy your Pokemon are during the game. If your Pokemon loses HP in battle, heal them at a Pokemon Center.

Held Items: If you give an item to a Pokemon, it will hold it. This can mean a lot of things. If the item is a berry, it automatically restores HP when low. If it is an Amulet coin, in battle if you defeat an opponent you will get twice as much money. What ever the item's powers are it will be there when a Pokemon Holds it (Pokemon cannot hold Key items.) Also, sometimes when a Pokemon is holding an item and it is traded, it will evolve. For instance, trade Slowbro holding a King's Rock and he'll evolve into a Slowking. (Gold/Silver/Crystal.)

Hey You Pikachu: A relatively new N64 game of Pokemon that isn't really talked about, but it is where there is a microphone and you can talk to Pikachu, and if you say the words right, he will respond to it. It has what's called a VRU (Voice Recognition Unit). This isn't really a game; it's kind of like "Pocket Pikachu".

Hidden Machines (HM): Like TMs only that HMs have a purpose on the field. They are very hard to get and can be used over and over again. There are 7 of them. In the Gold/Silver, HMs can be deleted in Blackthorn City.

Jesse/James: The 2 goofy villains of Team Rocket who appear in every episode (which is kind of repetitive) and are always defeated by Ash in the TV show.

Johto: The land in which you begin your game in the Gold/Silver versions. When you complete your journey in Johto, you can move on to Kanto.

Kanto: The land that comes after Johto in the Gold/Silver. It was where you originally played your games in the Red/Blue/Yellow versions.

Levels (of Pokémon): The amount of skill the Pokemon has acquired in training. The level of a Pokemon will give you an idea of how well it will do against an opponent. The levels go from 1-100. For example, if you have a level 90 Pokemon and your opponent has a level 10 Pokemon, you can easily defeat you opponent, but if it's the other way around, then you're going to be the one who loses most likely.

Link Cable: A cable that connects 2 Gameboys together that allows trades and battles.

Master Ball: (First, see "Pokeball" of this Glossary.) A higher version of the Pokeball. In fact, the Masterball will catch any Pokemon without fail. There's only one in the game, so make a Pokemon hold it and clone it. Then you'll have 2 Masterballs. See Cloning in the Codes Section.

Mew: A special Pokemon that can't be caught in any version; therefore, he matches #251 Celebi in extreme rareness. He can only be caught in a giveaway, trading, or Gameshark. He is #151 and can learn any TM or HM.

Mini Game: A smaller video game within a video game. For example, Pokemon Stadium 1 and 2 both have mini games. Mini Games are usually easier then the main game.

Missingno: A red/blue game glitch that is #000 and has it's own attacks, stats, etc. You can even consider it a Pokemon. For more information on this interesting Pokemon, see "Missingno" in the codes section.

Misty: A character that follows Ash around in the TV show. She's also a gym leader.

Mom: Character in TV show / Gameboy. She is more important in Gold/Silver because she sets daylight savings time.

Mystery Gift: A new formula for only Gameboy Color and the Gold/Silver/Crystal where you get a Mystery Gift from a girl on the 5th floor of the Dept. Store in Goldenrod City. Put together the infrared plates at the top of 2 Gameboy Colors and each person will get some kind of gift (this is not trading items.)

Nintendo: The company that makes Pokemon.

Oak (Prof. Oak): He was the main Professor in Red/Blue/Yellow. The main Prof. in Gold/Silver/Crystal is Prof. Elm, but Prof. Oak would always like you to pay him a visit in Kanto in the Gold/Silver/Crystal versions.

Pack: It is the revised version of the items you carried around in Red/Blue/Yellow, only now in Gold/Silver/Crystal, the pack is a organized item section, unlike the old clump of items carried around in the old versions. It's a backpack.

Party: This is usually when a bunch of kids come over to eat cake and wear funny hats. But in Pokemon, a "Pokemon Party" is the main 6 Pokemon you carry around with you.

Pichu: A baby version of Pikachu.

Pikachu: The most famous Pokemon, he is #25. True Poke Fans who liked Pokemon since 1998 remember him as just another "electric-type" Pokemon. In 1999, Pikachu was "discovered" by a large crowd and that's how Pikachu became so famous. He is also cute.

PKMN: Means Pokemon.

Pokéball: The thing in which you capture your Pokemon. They are usually Red on the top and white on bottom. There are different kinds: Pokeball, Great Ball, ultra Ball, Master Ball, Safari Ball (only Red/Blue/Yellow), Park Ball (only for Gold/Silver) and all of the other balls made from apricorns (in Gold/Silver.)

Pokémon: The word in Japanese means "Pocket Monsters".

Pokémon Colloseum: A new Pokemon game, it's the first Gamecube game that is entirely based on Pokemon. It has 100 new Pokemon (not the new ones from the Gold/Silver versions, the new ones from the ruby/sapphire versions.)

Pokémon Snap: This is actually a pretty old Pokemon game, considering it came to America in 1999. This is a game where you take photos of Pokemon.

Pokémon Stadium 2: A game which is the sequel to "Pokemon Stadium", only now the Gold/Silver versions can play, Pokemon #152-251 can play, there are new things like your 3-D decorated room in new bark town, and there are new and better mini games. There's a lot more stuff in this way-cool 3-D Pokemon N64 game.

Poké Center: Every City or Town (except New Bark Town and Pallet Town) has a Pokemon Center. These places are where you can heal Pokemon and also where you trade and battle. Your PC it here, too.

Pokédex: Where all of you Pokemon data is stored, like what Pokemon you've seen, what Pokemon you've caught, where the Pokemon you've seen/caught are, data for the Pokemon you've caught, etc. In Gold/Silver, you can change the mode of the Pokedex with the Select Button.

Pokégear: A new item where you have the clock, a Map, A cell phone, and even a radio. The last 3 you have to find somewhere in the game.

Poké Mart: Sells lot of items like Pokeballs and Potions.

Power Points: (In short it's p.p. It's true, so stop giggling now.) Power Points are the amount of times you can use one attack. For example, If a Pokemon has 5 P.P. for Hydro Pump, if it gets down to 0, the Pokemon can no longer use that item.

Quick Claw: An item that when held makes a Pokemon's speed better in battle. Get it in the national park.

Rare Pokemon: Pokemon that are hard to find.

Route: Walkways that go from one City/Town to another.

Ruins of Alph: Ancient Ruins where you find Unowns and Puzzles in the Gold/Silver versions. Natu and Smeargle are 2 Pokemon that can only be found in the grass of the ruins of Alph. In the new Crystal version, there are new passages and secrets added to the Ruins of Alph.

Satoshi Tajiri: The shy inventor of Pokemon. He is the one who really invented it.

Skill: The way in which you Pokemon fights in battle. Some Pokemon skills are learned and others are natural. Another way of saying Skills is "attacks".

Stats: Stats are the amount of attack, Speed, Defense, Special Attack and Special Defense your Pokemon has.

Swarms: Swarms are new to Gold/Silver and it's when a Pokemon that is rare can become common for a day. Just ask someone in the area of a Pokemon like Marril or Snubull for their phone number and they'll tell you when a swarm is coming. For more information, see the swarm section of this information database.

Tameness: Where a Pokemon likes you or hates you depending on how you treat it. Go to the lady in Goldenrod City to find out how your Pokemon are doing. Some Pokemon even evolve by tameness (like Chancy, Golbat and Togepi.)

Team Rocket: The villain organization in the game and in the TV show.

Technical Machines (TM): Technical machines (TM) and Hidden Machines (HM) give your Pokemon new battle moves. Both of them have to be given to the correct type of Pokemon that can know them.

The Clock: In Gold/Silver, this is accentual to the game. It is either morning, day or night, and you set the clock at the beginning of the game. If you press Select+B+Down when Lugia / Ho-oh is flying in the begging and you can reset the clock if you enter the password, but I'm not sure what it is. Anyway, different Pokemon come out at different times of the day, and it's either P.M. or A.M., depending on how you set it.

The Truck: Another weird glitch in the Red/Blue versions. There's a secret truck. For more information, see an entry on "The Truck" in the Codes section.

Time Capsule: A Gold/Silver trading device on the second floor of the poke Center that allows you to trade back to the Red/Blue/Yellow versions. Stupidly enough, Pokemon #152-#251 cannot be traded because it would screw up the program of the Red/Blue/yellow. New attacks can't be traded either. Battles cannot be held.

Todd: Pokemon Snap's main character.

Trading: Something you need to do to get all the Pokemon. Get together with a friend and connect with a link cable. Trading is done on the second floor of the Pokemon Center (Gold/Silver.)

Walkthrough: A book that helps you get through the game. It's like a guidebook (like the Gold/Silver guide on this website.)
