You’ll come across some water. Use Surf here to follow the water without landing anywhere else.

At the very end of this path, you’ll see some stairs you can use to get back on land.

Now you want to follow the path without taking any of the ladders you see on the way.

Eventually, at the end of this path you’ll come across a ladder heading upstairs that’ll be on a separate platform. Use it to go to the Cerulean Cave’s maze area.

Now you want to go down towards the small rocky maze. Follow this path and you’ll soon get the choice to take one of three paths. Follow the path to the right.

Continue following the path, using Rock Smash to clear some rocks on the way, and you’ll eventually reach a ladder heading downstairs at the end of the path.

After going down the ladder, take the other ladder to your South.

If this is your first time here then you’ll be stopped by Archer and Ariana and will have to beat them before moving on.

After the battles, the ladder here will take you to a platform. Get down from it by using the stairs to your East and then continue going East.

You’ll eventually come across some smashable rocks in the North-East part of the room.

Use that as a sign to continue following the path South.

Continue following the linear path, even when you have to use Surf to cross a small pond.

At the end of this path you’ll encounter Giovanni who you’ll have to fight alongside Lance in a double battle.

Note: When you defeat his Mewtwo he’ll be revived with full health as Mega Mewtwo Y, which means he technically has seven Pokémon.

Hannan Mundia

If ‘Jack of all Trades’ was a person it would have to be Hannan. Whether it be games, anime, comics, or even K-Dramas, you name it and Hannan is already a die-hard fan of it. When he isn’t on his bed binging an anime or show then you can definitely find him on his chair either gaming or writing about games.
