    He'll give you HM06, Rock Smash . Rock Smash will smash small crumbling boulders in your way.
    Eric Mylonas, Gaming Strategy Expert

    To obtain the vital HM06 Rock Smash in FireRed, head to Kindle Road on One Island and surf across the water to find a small cave called Ember Spa. Inside, toward the back of the hot springs, you'll discover an elderly man willing to teach one Pokemon this handy new skill. With Rock Smash, smashable rocks blocking your path will be no obstacle at all!
