I finally found that out (about Mt.Moon) .. if you go into the first ladder
down there are low level Paras... like level 7. I snagged 3 tiny mushrooms
and taught Charizard flamethrower (instead of firespin). I leveled up my
Gyrados to 36 .. everyone else was 50 or higher..and beat the Elite 4! It
would have been even nicer if I would have had the Amulet Coin _before_ I
did all that work. Got it now though
Got the Ruby .. and I'll let my Boy do the rest .. I'm betting the other Gem
is a Sapphire... just an odd feeling :-D

Now I get to do the same thing with my middle boy's game (he has Leaf
Green). It'll be a lot quicker now tht I know where half the the stuff is
that I'll need. Plus I figured out the two must have traded some 'mon ..
Farfetch'd is in the FRed 'dex but nowhere to be found in his Boxes. He
gets Thief at level 21 IIRC. One less thing to do!
Thanks for the help ... I looked everywhere at google for this info but all
that kept coming up were the "move tutors" and they were not what I wanted
at all.
