Notable miscellanies
Whitney Quest
The first time the player arrives in Goldenrod City, the gym doors will be locked; Whitney is away and protesting at the Radio tower. The quest initiates when talking to Sergeant Raul, the police officer Whitney is protesting at, and offering to help. Raul will inform that there is a suspicious absent employee that the player can investigate at Goldenrod Underground Path. Said location can be accessed from the small green building in the close west of the Pokemon Center or from an identical building west of the city's north exit.
The missing employee, Radio Director Gavin, will indeed be in the Underground path, blocking a door on the east side of the path. After hearing his very suspicious speech, it will be necessary to report back to Sergent Raul, who will then suggest to speak to the Department Store Management head Michael, who can be found in a small building east of the Department Store.
Michael will give the player a key for the Basement floor. Before going there however, it is necessary to also bring a pokemon that knows the move Sleep Powder or Spore; Butterfree may be the easiest choice, but other good candidates are Oddish, Hoppip and Bellsprout. Once that pokemon is in the party, the quest will continue in the Basement floor of the Department store, which is accessible from its elevator.
Security Officer Eric will be blocking the way, he is the guard Michael spoke of. With a Sleep Powder or Spore Pokémon in hand, Eric will free the way after giving a cup of water and using the sleeping move on it.
The now unblocked area will have trapped Pokémons as well as Team Rocket patrolling the area. If any member of the Team Rocket notices the player, they will kick him or her out back in front of the Pokemon Center. Before moving on, it will be required to free the five trapped pokemons:
- The Marill heard as soon as entering, which is in the closest small box from the stairs.
- A Miltank in a small box west of the stairs.
- An Abra in a small box a bit further the path west of the stairs.
- A Meowth in a small box at the end of the path west of the stairs.
- A Chikorita in a small box in the large narrow path going back north.
Once all five Pokémons have been freed, it will now be possible to move on to the next room. The room features levers that close and open doors, as well as Team Rocket that will challenge the player on sight. Each lever acts on two doors, and will open the door if it's closed, or close it if it is opened. Note that the doors on vertical walls do not change appearance even if it is opened, making the only possible way to see if they are opened to try walking into them.
At the end of the puzzle will be waiting Radio Director Gavin. Angered by the player making it this far, Gavin will challenge him or her. His pokemons are estimated to all be level 25. After defeating him, he will clumsily confess his sins and disappear. All that is left to do to complete the quest and unlock Goldenrod's gym is to report back to Sergent Raul and Whitney in front of the Radio Tower.
