Having beaten Koga, it was time to start gathering Pokemon from the Safari Zone as well as gaining access to some more moves for our Pokemon to get around Kanto. Then it was an uphill struggle on Cycling Road before returning to Saffron City where we could finally access Silph Co. Navigating that maze and facing off again with both our rival AND Giovanni, we drive Team Rocket out of town so we can battle Sabrina for the Marsh Badge!
