^ so don't talk to him or walk 1 square infront of him

growl the diglett 6 times

once you die read the sign outside the pokecenter and walk back into forest
gengar appears, thundershock it once and throw balls

once caught trainerfly off the guy again mentioned earlier (underflow gengar off an encounter on the way. you may choose to run from scary things [pidgeys/pidgeotto] especially if gengar paralyzed pika)
fight the scrub trainer the same way since you won't be able to talk to brock
bop brock
if out of balls or potions, revisit pewter mart and make sure you have at least 1 of each

walk 1 step, game will realize you have no living mons and warp you to pewter center

open menu, swap potions to slot 6 and toss any extras you have above 1 (you must end this step with potion x1 in slot 6)

walk back into forest
missingno appears, be patient while it loads battle, you have not crashed
stall a turn with tail whip so you take damage
use a first potion, take damage
use a second potion (you will have _7 left)
