From Lavender Town, head west onto Route 8. This route is full of trainers. Continue west until you reach the entrance to the Underground Path, which connects Route 8 to Route 7. This path is straightforward and has no wild Pokémon. Exiting the Underground Path puts you on Route 7, just west of Saffron City. You can't enter Saffron City yet, so head south onto Route 6, which leads directly to Vermilion City. Prepare for the next Gym Leader!
