Big Tower Tiny Square Full Playthrough

[Eloisa Stawasz]

Hellothere, future pokemon masters. In this guide, I'd like to help you gathering funds and items for your Pokemon Master journey. It's more as a complete walkthrough with all hidden items locations- but it's made to maximize the spoils and minimize the playtime and effort put into it. The alt acc guide I made is here to show you things that not everyone knows, give you the shortest paths and, eventually, helping you to become the Pokemon Master.

a) First thing is a sweeper. There are a lot of viable pokes for this task. I usually prefer a Starmie (modest, nc, surf + tbolt + icebeam + psychic). Others like to use Alakazams, but with elepunches being physical they lost a lot of coverage. Gengars are doing really fine too. Basicly a fast and strong special sweeper will serve you through the game. It would be really nice if that sweeper would have a +spatk nature (except quiet, ew). If you are cheap and do not want to re-moveset your sweeper every time you use it (TMs do cost a bit, hue) then re-breeding it for every run might be quite efficient. (Credits to BurntZebra for that tip)

Now when it's hard to get a hand of a good sweeper, you have to rely on something that is easy to catch and does not require a lot of effort to run. Gastly makes a perfect choice- evolves quickly into Gengar, learns useful moves, has good typing. Get yourself a regular Gas, teach it TBolt, Psychic and Shadow Ball along the way and you have an awesome special sweeper that will surely help you through storyline.

In case you wouldn't have one due to breeding becoming a fusion, you can power-level your starter (Squirtle recommended) and some of the gift pokes you will obtain during storyline (such as Eevee; the eeveelution you will choose will surely be very helpful asset to the team along with your starter).

There are still wild pokes that can serve you through storyline as your sweepers, but you would need to bring multiples to cover everything you will need to. A lot of those depend on your resources. I even used a Hitmonlee and Natu I had in my box laying for ages- Natu actually works perfectly (mine had Giga Drain + Psychic + Heat Wave- fantastic thing).

b ) Second thing is a HM slave. To cover everything you will need (Flash, Cut, Strength, Surf, Rock Smash, Waterfall, Fly, Teleport and Dig) you will need 3 HM Slaves. My advice? Use Claydol with Strength, Rock Smash, Teleport and Flash. 2 other HM Slaves are your choice- I took Lanturn and Charizard (Lanturn is also for Hoenn storyline as it has Dive). There are a lot of options and combination of those HM Slaves is all up to you =)

e) Items that you will need to transfer are: Amulet Coin (we want max profit, right?), Repel/ Super Repel/ Max Repel (it's only to go through Viridian forest without encountering bugs), Water Stone for your Staryu if you chose it to be your sweeper and/ or a lucky egg if you didn't have a low-level storyline sweeper and have to rely on your starter. If you are afraid that your sweeper might overlevel, bring an expshare and give it to one of HM slaves. It will cut the exp earned by sweeper by half. Also at least 4000$ to buy few Repels in Pewter. Then you will just rely on Max Repels (it comes cheaper later on).

First enter the pokecenter and heal up. Then go to pokemart. Take the parcel, then collect the Potion on the left side (behind the tree). Now come back to Pallet and hand over the package to the old man. After that teleport to Viridian and head to Viridian Forest.

First collect the Antidote in the tree here. Head left, turn on the repel and run to take the Pokeball. In the lower right corner there is a Potion. Take it. Go up, be sure to still be in the grass patch because Bug Catcher might like to attack you. If you continue to head north, you'll find another Antidote. Continue going to Pewter, collect the Potion along the way. Here is your first mandatory battle against a Bug Catcher with a level 9 Weedle. Be careful, Weedle is stronk, be sure to bring a good counter for it. Starmie with psychic might do it. Then, collect the hidden Potion here and go to Pewter.

First, visit the Pokemart and buy yourself a lot of repels. Something like 15-20 is enough to safely reach the location that has Max Repels which you'll be using later on. Head to Brock's gym, but stop along the way to take the hidden Pokeball here. Avoid the camper and reach the leader. Brock will challenge you with a lvl 12 Geodude and lvl 14 Onix. Kill them with Surf/ Vine whip/ whatever your starter or transferred poke has and head to Route 3.

Here is the route you need to follow to battle as little trainers as possible. Bug catcher Colton will challenge you anyway with 2x lvl 10 Caterpie and a lvl 10 Weedle. RIP in pieces. Follow the path from screenshot. You can grab the Oran Berry (I like doing it- you never know when it will come in handy) or just head to pokecenter. This is the screen where a "mark" on the ground shows that berry lays there, so I am not going to provide screens for berries. Another mandatory battle with a Bug Catcher Greg awaits you. Lvl 9 Weedle, Lvl 9 Caterpie, Lvl 9 Metagod and lvl 9 Kakuna shouldn't be much of a problem (except Metagod). Another battle with another Bug Catcher is ahead, James uses lvl 11 Caterpie and lvl 11 Metagod. Faint them and head to Mt. Moon PC, be sure that Lass with Jigglypuff won't see you though (she moves a lot). Take the Perism berry right to the PC, enter it and heal the sweeper.

After you enter, use repel. You can go left to grab Bullet Seed and Paralyz heal but it's not worth it (although I like to collect the Bullet Seed TMs, that's just me). Head north, avoid the girl standing next to sign. Go down the ladder and collect the mushrooms. They are hidden here, here and here. Return back- down the ladder is only Antidote and rocket. Go south, avoid the nerd and take the Potion. Go east, Rare Candy is there. Now head north and take the Escape Rope along the way. Run to another ladder, on the west. There is a hidden mushroom here. This time go down the ladder. Collect the Thief TM, now go around the rocket from the down side and take the hidden Ether here. Go back. Around the youngster, watch out for Hiker for not to see you and take the Moon Stone. Go down the ladder and take another mushroom from here. Go forward, down the ladder. Now go north and take the Revive. Avoid the rocket (he spins around), go forward. Battle with Rocket Grunt is ahead, he got lvl 13 Rattata (Quick Attack) and lvl 13 Zubat. Take the hidden Moon Stone here and face the nerd with lvl 12 Grimer, lvl 12 Voltorb and lvl 12 Koffing. Take the Fossil (Helix ftw). Head down ladder and collect Antidote along the way. Go up. Collect the last hidden mushroom here and go out of the cave.

Grab the Great Ball here. You can collect Razz Berry south-east of that place but it's not worth it until something about those berries will be implemented. Anyway grab the Roar TM and head to Cerulean.

Here is the hidden Rare Candy. Go north and kick Rival's ass. Keep heading north, there are 6 mandatory battles on nugget bridge but they are easy. After beating all the trainers, you will receive a Nugget. Keep in mind to do not overlevel your sweeper if you transferred it from main (a'ka it has diffrent OT). When your sweeper will be lvl 18 or 19, go to gym and finish Misty. Do not stand in front of Misty because gril will challenge you. Defeat her, she uses lvl 18 Staryu and lvl 21 Starmie. Starmie might be a little pain. Now go through nugget bridge again to route 24.

Go around the Hiker and grab the hidden Elixir here. Now you can either fight the trainer that blocks your way to TM43 (Secret Power) or wait until you'll get cut and come back here. I prefer to kick his ass. Collect the berries and hidden ether here. Take the ticket from Bill and go back to Cerulean. Beat the Rocket that stole the Dig TM. then go through Route 5 to Underground Path.

After exiting the Underground Path, grab Cheri Berry on the left and Rare Candy on the right, here. Go through the grass and avoid the bug catcher, also by walking around him (through grass). Go down, fight the camper Jeff. He uses lvl 16 spearow and lvl 16 raticate. Afterwards, go to Vermilion city.

After you enter, go left. Second room from the left contains Brick Break TM. Take it and visit 2 rooms: Fifth room from the left is worth visiting to defeat the Gentleman, so is the last room from the left. Head to the kitchen (down left). Grab the berries from trash cans and Great Ball in the lower left corner. Now avoid all other rooms and go below the floor. Grab the hidden Hyper Potion here. First room from the right contains Super Potion. In third there's an Ether. Fourth has very useful Rest TM. Exit the area by going up, and then up again at the upper floor. Second room from the left holds Antidote (lel) but you can battle a gentleman for 2400$ (one poke). Forget about the antidote though as you will need to battle one more trainer which is not worth it. 4th has X attack but once again you will have to battle a trainer- a gentleman, so it's good. Head to Captain's room, kicking Rival's ass along the way. Rub his back and accept the HM01. Exit the ship now and head to Surge's Gym.

He might be a tough challenge for Starmie but if you collected all the healing items then you'll have easier time with him. Beat the trainers in gym because they're annoying fgts when you are searching for the switches. Sailor uses 2x lvl 21 Pika, Engineer uses lvl 21 Voltorb and lvl 21 Magnemite, and Gentleman uses lvl 23 Pikachu. Your sweeper should be around lvl 26 now. Kick Surge's ass, he uses lvl 21 Voltorb, lvl 18 Pikachu and a lvl 23 Raichu. You'll get a Shock Wave TM. After getting the badge, head to Route 11.

Right after entering the route, there is an awakening above. Go right, watch out for trainers- though few of them are worth battling: all the Gamers and the Engineer in the very middle of the location, right above the X Defend. In the very middle of the route there is an X defend. On the upper side of passage there is a hidden Escape Rope here. Also collect the Great Ball on the other side by going along the fence. Enter the passage, go up and grab the itemfinder from Oak's phag and exit the passage. Now fly to Viridian and head to Route 2.
