Pokemon Silver Hints & Tips

Clone Your Pokemon

• Put the pokemon you want to clone in a PC. Switch the box to fourteen and when you see the text "Saving Do," shut your game boy off quickly. When you restart, you will have the saved pokemon in the PC as well as one in your inventory.

Beat the Tree

• To beat the tree on route 36 you need to beat the Goldenrod gym leader first. Then go into the house that has a lady holding buckets of water. The lady will give you a squirt bottle. Take the bottle to the tree on route 36 and squirt it. Squirting the tree weakens it. Finish the tree off by beating it with one of your pokemon, and there will be no more tree on route 36.

Getting Lapras

• Go to union cave on a Friday (in the game). Visit the third lake. Surf to the end of the lake, and you will see a ladder. Go through the ladder and then continue surfing south west. You will hit land. Go south. There will be someone there waiting to battle. Battle them, then go to the lake and continue surfing. Lapras will be waiting for you. This only works on the game's Fridays.

Get an Aerodactyl

• Go to Fuscia City and take the eastern route. When you get to the corner of the route, there will be an elevated area full of ledges and grass patches. You can catch a Chansey pokemon in the grass patch. You will see a girl standing in the patch. The girl will trade her Aerodactyl for your Chansey.

Get a Dragonair or a Rhydon

• Go to the dragon's den and find a pond. There are level 40 dratini's in these ponds. Catch one with a fishing rod. Battle your dratini until it reaches level 41. When it reaches level 41, it will evolve into a dragonair. If your dragonair is female, you can trade it to a person in one of the houses in Blackthorn City for a rhydon.

Where to Get the Stones

• To get the leaf stone, talk to Picknicker on route 34. To get a fire stone, talk to the school boy on route 36. To get the thunder stone, talk to Lass Dana on route 38. For the water stone, talk to Fisher Tully on route 42. For the fire stone, visit Bill north of cerculean cape near the water gym. He will ask to see vulpix or growlith. Show him and he will give you the stone. To get the everstone, you have to join the bug content in the park just above Goldenrod. Once you win second place, you will get the stone. Good pets to have to win are pinsir or scyther, at least at level 13.
