will allow you to find the "Machine Part" inside Cerulean City's Gym.
Events After the Kanto Power Plant
After dealing with the events at the Kanto Power Plant,
you'll encounter the Gym Leader near the cape after battling some trainers,
so it's a good idea to talk to them.
Kanto Power Plant +1
Return to the Kanto Power Plant,
deliver the "Machine Part," and receive TM07 as a reward.
Usage of Zap Cannon
Zap Cannon boasts high power and a chance of inducing paralysis,
making it an excellent move despite its lower accuracy.
It's best taught to Electric-type Pokémon like Zapdos or Raikou whenever possible.
Cerulean City +3
In Cerulean City, you can battle the Gym Leader.
The Gym Leader specializes in Water-type Pokémon.
Let's exploit their weakness with Grass-type Pokémon.
VS. Gym Leader
Gym Leader's Pokémon Team
★ Golduck Level 42
★ Quagsire Level 42
★ Lapras Level 44
★ Starmie Level 47
Strategy Against the Gym Leader
Except for Quagsire, Electric-type moves are super effective against the other three Pokémon.
Therefore, it's best to defeat the other three Pokémon with Electric-type moves.
Since Quagsire is immune to Electric-type moves, Grass-type moves are four times effective against it.
Let's exploit Quagsire's weakness with Grass-type moves.
Saffron City +1
After defeating the Gym Leader, head west through the gate to Route 7
and make your way to Celadon City.

The Celadon Game Corner offers enticing Pokémon for acquisition.
These include:
Mr. Mime, which learns Baton Pass
Eevee, capable of evolving into multiple forms
Porygon, which evolves through trading
While all of these Pokémon are worth obtaining, Mr. Mime and Porygon are particularly essential.
"Leftovers," which is useful in battles.
In the dining hall located to the south of the game corner, you can find "Leftovers."
When given to Pokémon that can learn Toxic, Double Team, or Leech Seed,
it makes the Pokémon very strong.
