How to Transfer Pokemon From Red to Gold

"Pokemon Gold" was released in 2000 and is the sequel to "Pokemon Red." While many of the old Pokemon can be found in "Pokemon Gold," some Pokemon, such as Bulbasaur, can only be found by transferring them from the old games. You can transfer any of the 150 Pokemon from "Pokemon Red" into "Gold." However, once a Pokemon is transferred from "Red" to "Gold," he can never be transfer back if he learns a move that was not available in "Pokemon Red."
