<big>You begin your journey at the bottom of route #1, and must travel north. There's not a lot of things to do on the way to [[Pokémon_Red_and_Blue/Viridian_City|Viridian City]]. Wild Pokémon abound, but without any Poké  Balls of your own, they're not worth much except EXP. Be careful they don't wear you down, and stick with your damage-dealing regular attacks.</big>
You begin your journey at the bottom of route #1, and must travel north. Route #1 is very peaceful, and doesn't contain many interesting features. As a result, there's not a lot of things to do on your first trip to [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Viridian City|Viridian City]]. One of the first people you will encounter is a man who offers you a free Potion. Don't miss out on that.


<big>To avoid the fights altogether, minimize the amount of time you spend in the grassy areas. They're the only areas where wild Pokémon lurk, so it's the only time you're at risk of being attacked.
Wild Pidgeys and Rattatas abound, but without any Poké Balls of your own, the only thing fighting them is good for is EXP. Be careful that they don't wear you down, and stick with your damage-dealing regular attacks. To avoid the fights altogether, spend as little time as possible walking through the grassy areas. They're the only areas where wild Pokémon lurk, so it's the only time you're at risk of being attacked.  
 
Don't forget to talk to the first guy you pass for a free Potion!</big>
