PokeRus
You can get the PokeRus infection from a Yanma at Route 35, below bug catcher Arnie. Go up and down the grassy area. Add Bug Catcher Arnie to your list he will call you if he sees these rare Pokemon. You will know when you have the PokeRus because Professor Elm will call you and give you information about it (and tell you not to worry). Look at the stats on your Pokemon and you will see a shiny dot at the bottom right side (like a shiny Pokemon) and see the word PokeRus. It lasts two to four days and will spread to the other Pokemon in your party. Infect some and store them to keep the PokeRus going. Trade an infected Pokemon to the Pokemon Gold or Silver only -- it will not work on other versions. Take the infected Pokemon to a Pokecenter and heal. The nurse will say that your Pokemon has tiny bugs all over it -- but they do not seem to be harming them. The PokeRus virus is good, not bad. Pokemon that have it will gain twice as much experience after a battle. Getting the virus is extremely rare. You have a 3 in 65536 chance of getting it after a battle. The virus will wear off (healing at a PokéCenter will not end it). Once the virus is gone the Pokemon will be immune to future infections, and cannot infect other Pokemon. You will see a tiny dot in the corner. You can group infected Pokemon using Pokemon Stadium 2.
Easy Bug Catching Contest win
Raise an Oddish to level 21 and have it evolve into Gloom. Teach Gloom Sweet Scent. Enter the Bug Catching Contest on Tuesdays, Thursdays, or Saturdays. Take your Gloom to level 25 to 35 and knows Absorb and Sweet Scent. Find a spot in the park and use Sweet Scent repeatedly. Random Pokemon will attack you. Your best bet is a level 16 and over Butterfree, Venonat, Beedrill, Scyther, or Pinser.
Mystery Gifts
Note: This trick requires the Pokemon Pikachu 2 handheld game. Send Watts to your Game Boy Color by using the IR port. Note: You must first talk to the girl on fifth floor of the Department Store in Goldenrod City.
Rainbow Wing
In order to get the Rainbow Wing, you must have all three legendary Pokemon (Suicine, Raikou, and Entei).

Easy gifts and battles
Obtain several phone numbers, then go to your house and tell your mom to switch on or off daylight savings. Your phone friends will give you calls almost immediately, and you will get to fight them or receive gifts.
Easy money
Get a Pokemon that knows Pay Day. Battle any wild Pokemon and only use Pay Day. Each hit from pay day results in $40. The more you hit the Pokemon with pay day the more money you will get. Note: This does not work in trainer battles, and you must defeat the Pokemon to get the money.
Use the following trick to win three hundred coins almost every time on slot machines. In Golden Rod City's Game Corner, play the slot machines. Line two 7's up on the first two rows then press [A] and hold for the third row. Hold [A] and the slot will move until it hits the third 7, resulting in 300 coins.
Fast bike
Get a bike, walk out, then press [Select]. You will get on the bike and go faster.
Get rid of grass
Get HM02 and teach it to a Plant Pokemon. Get in front of some grass and use Cut. Note: The grass only disappears temporarily.
Countering Protect
When your opponent uses Protect there is only one move that you should use; Surf.
Catch Pokemon easily
To catch Pokemon easily without a Master Ball, let the enemy Pokemon fall asleep.
Use False Swipe until there is 1 HP remaining, then paralyze them. This will make it harder for them to break out.
Easy experience
Put a strong Pokemon that can put their opponent to sleep in the front of your party. Go to the grass in front of Silver Cave. Put the wild Pokemon to sleep, then switch to a low-level Pokemon. Have it do one attack and switch back to your strong Pokemon and finish it off. The weaker Pokemon will gain a lot of experience.
Do not use Rare Candies immediately on a Pokemon that you wish to become stronger. If you wait to use it, you can gain an extra level. Raise the Pokemon you plan to use it on to next level rather then wasting it. Then, use the Rare Candy. It makes more sense to use it on a Pokemon that has nearly no experience towards their next level as opposed to using it on a Pokemon that does not have much to go to reach its next level.
To get double experience points from battling, find a Chansey and use Thief. Make sure that your Pokemon is not holding an item. If you are lucky, you will steal an item called Lucky Egg. Give that to a Pokemon, and that Pokemon will receive double experience points when it wins a battle. This is especially useful when trying to level up Pokemon that are at 60 or higher. Note: This may take awhile because of how rare Chansey are to find. The odds of encountering one are low, and the odds of encountering one with the Lucky Egg are even lower. Chansey can be found on Route 15 in the grass with the girl that wants to trade her Aerodactyle.
Game differences
The following are differences from Pokemon Gold and Silver. The game has animated Pokemon. You can get items from your phone pals. Suicune can be caught before running out into the world of Johto and Kanto.
