Completion Checklist

  • Clear the route plan for Victory Road before moving to the next section.
  • Check the wild table for FireRed/LeafGreen version splits, rod methods, Surf, Rock Smash, static Pokemon, gifts, trades, and event-only rows when present.
  • Defeat or intentionally skip optional trainers; use VS Seeker notes where rematches are available.
  • Sweep visible and hidden item rows, including key items, HMs, TMs, berries, fossils, and scripted gifts.
  • Review boss cards and heal before any Rival, Gym Leader, Rocket Admin, Elite Four, Champion, or legendary encounter listed above.
