If you have been to bill's house, go there (just past nugget bridge, and to the east) he will give you the SS ANNE ticket, then you must go to vermillion city, go south until you see a dock, you will meet up with Gary (or whoever your rival's name is) and he will battel you, after he says "smell ya later" go north towards the staircase he came from, go to the captain, rub his back, and he will give you HM01 (CUT)

Can you go to bils house before you beat sissy. because there you stuck. You can only have tree fight there an thats not enough. to win.
