|=1. INTRODUCTION=|
|=================|
 �����������������

This guide is designed to show you the exact locations for all items in the
Red and Blue Versions of Pokemon. While the most common items can be bought at
Pokemon Marts, many more can be found in the field. Some of these are very
simple to find and you have no doubt come across them before - but I included
them anyway for completeness. The real usefulness in this guide however is
showing you where all the "hidden" items are. These are usually found inside
rocks or trees, sometimes in the middle of nowhere. It would take hours to
cover every single square of land, so I can't be totally sure that there are
still some hidden items out there I haven't discovered yet. I'm confident I
have 99% of items though, and if some new ones are stumbled upon I'm sure
the info will be e-mailed to me (that means you, too). Full credit will be
given of course. As well as locations, I will give descriptions of the items,
including where they are sold and their cost; as a little extra info never hurt
anybody.

I have sorted the items into 6 categories -
Recovery: Items which heal your Pokemon in some way or other
Stat Boosters: Items which increase the stats of your Pokemon, either
               temporarily or permanently
Balls: Items for catching Pokemon
TMs/HMs: Items for teaching moves to your Pokemon
Storyline: Items necessary for advancement in the game
Miscellaneous: Items that don't fit into any other category
