Generation II - Johto

Story

Three years after the events of Generation I, a new trainer from New Bark Town sets out to become the Pokémon Champion. Professor Elm provides your first Pokémon and sends you on an adventure across the Johto region.

Team Rocket has reformed and is attempting to contact their missing leader, Giovanni. You'll encounter the legendary Pokémon Ho-Oh and Lugia, and discover the mysteries of the Burned Tower and the legendary beasts: Raikou, Entei, and Suicune.

After defeating the Johto League, you can travel to Kanto and challenge the original eight Gym Leaders, culminating in a battle against Red atop Mt. Silver.
