You’re finally going to give Team Rocket a good thrashing so that their vile schemes come to an end! Reward at the end of this part of the walkthrough: Articuno.

Back to the Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee! menu

Quick access:

Saffron City

In one of the buildings that lead into Saffron City, the guard is drawn in by the smell of Tea. You give it to him, and in return he lets you through to Saffron City and goes off to share tea time with his colleagues.

At the entrance of Silph Co., Team Rocket’s Jessie and James are struggling with a Rocket Grunt who doesn’t want to let them through. Furious, Jessie shoves the Grunt aside and storms into the Silph building, and James hurries in after her. Follow them.

Silph Co.

When you enter the Silph Co. building, the receptionist calls out to make you leave, when suddenly Blue shows up with your rival. Blue then suggests that you rid Silph Co. of Team Rocket with the rival’s help. As for him, naive as he is, he says he’ll take care of finding Team Rocket’s hideout in Kanto. Before letting you take on Team Rocket, Blue wants to battle you.

Upon arriving on the 10th floor, Team Rocket’s Jessie and James stop you from going any further. They run off after you teach them a little lesson.

Gym and Dojo

As you leave Silph Co., your rival bursts in and tells you there is a Gym in Saffron City, which will be your next destination after healing your Pokémon. On entering the Saffron City Gym, you learn that to be allowed to take on the challenge, you need to own a Pokémon of Lv. 45 or higher. After her defeat, Sabrina gives you the Marsh Badge. With it in your possession, even traded Pokémon will obey you up to Lv. 70. She also gives you TM33, which contains Calm Mind.
