'''''Your local Pokémon Mart is great for quick shopping trips, but if you want to talk about selection, nothing beats the Celadon Department Store.  With five floors of everything a shopper could conceivably desire, it's a must-see for Pokémon trainers.  Fight the crowds to stock up on supplies and perhaps even solve a few of your ongoing problems.'''''

Team Rocket is obviously up to something, and as the dimwit in the warehouse points out, it surely has nothing to do with the hidden switch in the poster in the Game Corner.  And as long as you're heading down to the casino to confirm the non-existence of the switch, you might as well do some gambling.  Make sure that you get the '''Coin Case''' from the gambler in the diner next door.

The slots are tricky.  The machines do differ, but they go in streaks, changing frequently, so the only way to win is to spend all day putting a few coins into each machine, seeing which ones are "streaking," paying 70% of the time, and hold onto that machine until it runs out (you can usually get 500 or so coins out of them).  Other machines retain poor odds (1 in 10 or so) but have frequent high-paying Bars and 7's.  So if you get a Bar, stick with it for a while and a Triple-7 is probably ahead.  You can redeem your coins next door for TMs and some good Pokémon like {{bp|Dratini}}, but they're hardly worth the amount of time you'd have to spend on the slots to get them.  If you're trying to catch them all, just save up and buy the coins.

For once, the real action in town is somewhere other than the Gym.  You could either go after [[BP:Erika|Erika]] immediately or wait until after you investigate the Game Corner.  No matter which version you're playing, Erika's assembled a nasty team of three high-level Grass-type Pokémon to contend with.

But the good news is that you can use a Stone to power up Eevee into something much more powerful right away.  It won't really keep Eevee from learning any good skills, and you can make Eevee specialize in whatever type your roster is lacking.  Give it a lot of thought: this is the only Eevee you'll ever get.

If you saved the Bubblebeam TM, Vaporeon will be immediately useful, and even more powerful soon after when you get the Surf HM. Celadon City even lets you access the Ice Beam TM, which will make Vaporeon a lethal threat, even to Erika's Grass-types that normally have an advantage against Water-types. With its impressive mix of defense and offense, Vaporeon is sure to make a huge splash!

Jolteon's impressive Special and awesome critical hit rate (thanks to its Speed) make its Electric-attacks truly terrifying. Make sure you saved the Thunderbolt TM if you plan on using it. It has a few interesting coverage moves like Double-Kick and Pin Missle, but its Attack is so pitiful... just stick to blasting things with Thunderbolt.

| [[Image:Pokemon 136Flareon.png|right]]Flareon is the red-headed step child of the Eevee evolutions, ever disowned by Gamefreak. Flareon comes with an incredible Attack stat, but all it can use it with are Normal-type attacks, and without STAB it only hits about as hard as Raticate or Pidgeot. Meanwhile, on the special side, it only gets the very weak Ember, and no better Fire-type moves until much later in the game. Defensively, poor overall bulk and low Speed gives it real problems both against strong opponents and over long routes. By the time it learns Fire Blast or Flamethrower, there are almost no opponents Fire is good against. Unless you need the Pokedex entry or just feel sorry for it, you're best off passing up on Flareon.
