How creative can you get with your first free checklist?
Safari Zone
The Safari Zone is home to some rare Pokémon, as well as a number of interesting items.
In case you're confused about how to catch Pokémon in the Safari Zone, here are the basic rules:
- You can take 500 steps before you're automatically recalled to the entrance.
- You can only use the 30 Safari Balls provided by the park.
- You cannot attack or use items or status altering moves.
- You can throw stones to make the Pokémon you are trying to catch angry. This will make it more likely that you will catch the Pokémon, but it will also make the Pokémon more likely to run away. You should throw multiple stones to increase your chances.
- You can toss out bait to make the Pokémon stay around longer. On the downside, this makes them harder to catch.
- Catching some of the rare Pokémon, like Chansey can be tough. It's not unusual to throw all 30 Safari Balls without catching a Pokémon, so don't get discouraged. Just save your game before you enter the Safari Zone. If you don't catch anything good, just restart.

Find the Warden's Teeth
From the entrance, head north and east to find the exit to Area 1. Head east until you come to a grassy area, then go up the steps to the north. Go west, then down the steps and continue on north where you will see another short stairway. Go up the stairs, go east, and then down the next stairway you see. The exit to Area 2 is to the west, so go north until you can turn left and continue on west until you find the exit.
Now that you're in Area 2, go west until you're in the tall grass, then continue on north and go up the steps (not the ones by the sign), then take the next flight of stairs down again. Go west until you bump into a pond, then continue on north. Go east until you find yourself in tall grass again, then go north. When you can't go any further, turn to the left and continue on west (pick up the Protein power-up on the way). You'll come to another patch of tall grass. You're almost there. Just go all the way to the south and exit this map to go to Area 3. There, finally -- a few squares to the south -- you will find the Gold Teeth.
Get HM 03 (Surf) and TM 32 (Double Team)
Since you're already here, why not get the most useful HM at the same time as the teeth? Just go to the west from where you entered into Area 3 and you'll see a small hut (you will also see TM32 lying outside on the ground, so grab it). Inside the hut, you will receive Surf. Teach this to your Pokémon to get a powerful Water attack that almost always hits its target -- and the ability to cross rivers, ponds, lakes and even oceans. To go for a swim anywhere, just walk up to a shore and select the Pokémon that knows Surf in the Pokémon menu. Select Surf and you're on your way.
Get HM04 (Strength) and Rare Candy
With the Gold Teeth in hand, go back to the Warden's house in Fuchsia City (it's the house in the southeast, below the pond). As a reward for bringing back his teeth, he will give you HM04 (Strength). This power lets your Pokémon push around large boulders (you have to manually activate the Strength power every time you enter a new area). Use Strength in the Warden's house and push the boulder to the right. You can now grab the Rare Candy.
