Can at least hold b to run? Or is that only newer titles I don't remember
Gen 1 games had the bicycle, but it took a while to unlock. I don't remember running/biking mechanic in Gold/Silver which is sad because I played Silver just a few months ago.
You get the bike after reaching Vermillion in gen 1,but you had to center the start menu any time you wanted to use it. In gen 2 you got it in Goldenrod. I don't remember if you had to beat Whitney first or not.
Can you use the bicycle anywhere or only on bike hwy?
You can only enter the bicycle highway if you have a bike, but can use the bike outside and in caves (if I recall correctly).
Anywhere outside I believe.
Running shoes were Gen 3.
