Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! & Let's Go, Eevee!

Purchase on Amazon

Cerulean City

By
Vincent Lau

Your 2nd Gym challenge will take place in this fair city.

After your long trek through Mt. Moon, you’ll reach Cerulean City, which is famous for having the Water-type Gym. If you’re bold, you can head straight for the Gym, but personally we’d rather rest up and explore the surroundings first. That way, you can also train your Pokémon so that they’re better prepared.

If you’re unsure of your current total, simply open your box via the Party menu and check the total along the bottom. Minus 1 for "Magikarp" IconMagikarp since you didn’t catch that one. Either way, continue east to reach the Pokémon Center. Before you get there, your partner will direct you towards the city’s fountain.

It seems if you throw some money in there, your partner’s Happiness will increase. So it likes seeing you throw money away, huh?

Meanwhile, towards the right is a guy in red who will teach some super cool moves for your partner.

(1 of 2) Let’s Go Pikachu

Let’s Go Pikachu (left), Let’s Go Eevee (right)

Pikachu

Move Type Category Description
Zippy Zap Electric Special This move always goes first and always results in a critical hit.

Eevee

Move Type Category Description
Bouncy Bubble Water Special Deals damage and restores HP equal to half of that damage.
Buzzy Buzz Electric Special This move deals damage and always causes paralysis.
Sizzly Slide Fire Physical This move deals damage and always causes burn.

Back outside, you can find the next Gym to the right of the Pokémon Center. If you’re going there now, please skip ahead to the relevant page, as we’ll be going sight-seeing first. To the south of the Gym is the Poké Mart, should you need to purchase supplies. To get there, you’ll need to go around from the left.

The next point of interest can be found in the far south-west corner. Here, is none other than the home of the Bike Maniac. Unfortunately, he won’t give you a Bicycle no matter what you do, but if you inspect the three bikes inside and listen to him waffle on, he’ll reward you with 5 Heart Scales.

Afterwards, go over to the north-west corner and visit the house on the left. Inside is a fellow who’ll tell you about the 8 Gym Badges. Go past him, through the doorway above. Outside, pick up the Rare Candy in the far corner. Now exit the house and go east, then north from the Pokémon Center.

Further east is a house that was burgled by Team Rocket; right now, a familiar policewoman is guarding the entrance. Ignore that house for now and proceed north, up towards the extravagant-looking bridge. Before you can reach the bridge, your rival will come running in from above.

Pokémon Trainer Rival

Pokémon Level Type
"Pidgey" IconPidgey 12 Normal/Flying
"Oddish" IconOddish 12 Grass/Poison
"Eevee" IconEevee (Let’s Go "Pikachu" IconPikachu) 13 Normal
"Pikachu" IconPikachu (Let’s Go "Eevee" IconEevee) 13 Electric

Like previously, your rival leads with "Pidgey" IconPidgey. This would be the perfect task for Electric or Rock-types like Pikachu and "Geodude" IconGeodude. Or you can brute force it since it’s just a lowly Pidgey.

Next, he’s caught a brand new "Oddish" IconOddish. Which is a bit weird if you’re playing Let’s Go Eevee, as there’s nowhere to catch Oddish. Unless he’s playing Let’s Go Pikachu? Anyway, Fire or Flying-types are ideal.

Finally, he has his starter Pokémon as his last resort. Fighting-types (well, just "Mankey" IconMankey really) are recommended for Eevee and Ground-types (like Geodude) for Pikachu. Or you can always use your own partner to combat his.

Once he’s gone from the picture, carry on north to the next area.
