Get All 3 Starter Pokemon!
To do this you must have 2 gameboy advances(Or GBA player/ GBA SP) and 2 copies of Fire Red, or A copy of Fire Red, and a copy of Leaf Green. 1st, start both games, then pick a starter pokemon. Catch 1 other pokemon. Then, in the games, get to a part where you can trade, and trade your starter pokemon into the other game. Keep erasing and restarting your game, until in 1 game, a person is equipped with 2 Charmander, 2 squirtle, and 2 Bulbasaur. The other game should have any 1 pokemon. Trade back one of each, and you will have all 3 starter pokemon! (You can also use Ruby/Saphire as a storage unit for this trick, but that requires a normal link cable, and the pokemon will NOT show up on the pokedex!)

Powerful Fire, Water, And Grass Moves
If you want to have a really strong team to prepare for the Elite Four, and you have all three starter pokemon, you should have venusaur learn Frenzy Plant and SolarBeam, Charizard learn Blast Burn and Fire Blast, and Blastoise learn Hydro Cannon and Hydro Pump. Blast Burn, Hydro Cannon, and Frenzy Plant are like the fire, water, and grass versions of Hyper Beam and cause as much damage as Hyper Beam (not counting weaknesses and strengths).

Level 50 Moltres
Go to the island with the volcano on it. Once you get to the volcano, go to the very top. You will see a bird that looks like its wings are on fire. Before you confront it, you should make sure you have some ultra balls. About 50 of them. Save the game before you confront it. That way if you accidentally kill Moltres, or you run out of Ultra Balls, you can just shut of the game and try again.

Easy Money
You must have the National Dex to do this. Go to Five Island and head to Resort Gorgeous. There are 2 Ladies there, Lady Gillian and another one whose name escapes me. The one lady has a Lv. 48 Hoppip and a Lv. 50 Skiploom, and both have Nuggets. Gillian has 2 Lv. 47 Mareeps that both have Stardusts, and a Lv. 49 Flaaffy that has a Nugget. Gillian gives Y9800 for beating her and the other lady gives Y10000. If you use the Amulet Coin, these double to Y19600 and Y20000. So, have a level 100 Alakazam with Trick and another Pokémon with an Amulet Coin and you will rack up money like crazy.
