Then going from Kanto to Johto for the first time after defeating the elite 4 in Kanto, I said "no" after finding out, that I had to get the 8th badge in Johto, before I would be able to return to Kanto. I've figured out, that the walk back to Virvidian was quite long, so I used an escape rope, but I ended up in Johto. This is really annoying as I am currently stuck in Johto, without actually going there. This is a minor bug, but it is after all really irritating. Is there anyway I can get back to Kanto or do I just have to complete the story in Johto?

 

Thanks for help in the future - Monkeyalbert.

You can beat Jhoto in 3 hours(with a bike and a boosted pokemon), just finish it lol.
