Use '''HM01 Cut''' (obtained after the events on SS. Anne) to hack down a bush and reach the [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Vermilion City|Vermilion City]] Gym entrance. Once inside, you'll be confronted by a few trainers and a double-locked door.  To reach [[BP:Lt. Surge|Lt. Surge]], you'll have to find the two switches hidden in the trash cans on the floor.  The switches are randomly located, but once you find one, the second will be right next to it. If you don't get it on your first try, the switches will reset and move and you'll have to search again. One trick that you can do is to find the first switch, then save your game, then find the second switch, and if you get the wrong trash can, you can then reset the game which would bring you back to where you have already activated the first switch and try finding the second switch again.

While Lt.Surge's {{bp|Voltorb}} and {{bp|Pikachu}} in Red and Blue are pretty easy to deal with, {{bp|Raichu}} can pose a slight threat, but Ground-type Pokémon like {{bp|Geodude}} and {{bp|Sandshrew}} are completely immune to its Electric attacks (and the former resists its Normal-type moves as well), and your Electric and Grass Pokémon resist them. For offense you can use your own Ground-type attack, Dig, for devastating damage since his Pokémon has weak defense stats. With any luck, you caught a Geodude or two back at [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Mt. Moon|Mt. Moon]]. If you didn't, make a detour down by [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Route 11|Route #11]] into [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Diglett's Cave|Diglett's Cave]]. There, you can capture some {{bp|Diglett}} and {{bp|Dugtrio}} to even out the odds with Lt. Surge. Otherwise, stick with regular attacks, as long as they aren't Flying- or Electric-type.
