===Off-shore island===
There is an off-shore island to the west of the town. Trainers are unable to reach the island when they first reach the town, due to the fact they are unable to use {{m|Surf}}. Trainers must gain {{HM|03|Surf}} in order to access this area. There is a man who will give the player the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Mystic Water}}. A strip of land north of the island has a hidden {{DL|Valuable item|Nugget}}, which requires {{HM|08|Rock Climb}} to reach.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Cherrygrove's Japanese motto is {{tt|かわいい はなの かおる まち|Kawaii hana no kaoru machi}} ''"The fragrant city of cute flowers"''.
* Cherrygrove City is the second smallest city of [[Johto]], which is ironic since its location is based on {{wp|Nagoya, Aichi|Nagoya}}, which is the fourth largest city of {{wp|Japan}} and the second largest city of the {{wp|Kansai region|region}} Johto represents.

* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the pond behind the [[Pokémon Center]] that was present, but inaccessible in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, is accessible through a new path on {{rt|30|Johto}}. However, this causes a strange phenomenon: due to there being only one set of data for all bodies of water in a given location, entirely different {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} can be caught depending on whether the {{player}} is in the water on the Cherrygrove City or Route 30 side of the pond. Even stranger is the fact that those found on the Cherrygrove side belong in the sea.

Even stranger is the fact that those found on the Cherrygrove side belong in the sea.
* In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the green lady in the [[Pokémon Center]] mentions that the '''Communication Center''' on the second floor was "just built" even though the facility is called the '''{{DL|Pokémon Center|Generation II|Cable Club}}'''. On the Japanese versions, she correctly refers to the Cable Club, in which it is called the '''Link Club''' (Japanese: '''つうしんクラブ'''). In the Korean versions, she mentions the club by its English name (Korean: '''통신센터''' ''Communication Center'').
* As with many other [[Johto]] towns, Cherrygrove City's slogan is changed between [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]]. Its Generation II slogan is "''The City of Cute, Fragrant Flowers,''" while in Generation IV, it is just "''The City of Fragrant Flowers.''"
** Ironically enough, in the Japanese version of {{game|Crystal}}, there is a [[Non-player character|NPC]] inside the [[Pokémon Communication Center]] in [[Goldenrod City]] who mentions that the center was also "just built".

Cherrygrove City (Japanese: ヨシノシティ Yoshino City) is located in south-central Johto. Though the city has no Gym, it is frequently passed through by Pokémon Trainers on their way to Violet City from New Bark Town. The city acts mainly as a tutorial, introducing the player to the main tools of the game (the Pokémon Center, the Poké Mart, etc.).

Places of interest

City Tour

Guide Gent (Japanese: おんないじいさん Kind Old Man), who first stands near the east entrance of Cherrygrove City, will offer the player a tour of the city. The tour route includes the Pokémon Center, the Poké Mart, the exit to Route 30, the sea, and Guide Gent's house. Upon the conclusion of the tour, the player will receive the Map Card for their Pokégear. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, he instead gives the player the Running Shoes, and only gives them the Map Card upon leaving Cherrygrove City to the north.

Guide Gent's House
Full-of-Energy, High-Speed Old Man

Off-shore island

There is an off-shore island to the west of the town. Trainers are unable to reach the island when they first reach the town, due to the fact they are unable to use Surf. There is a man who will give the player the Mystic Water. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver a strip of land north of the island has a hidden Nugget, which requires HM08 (Rock Climb) to reach.

Walking Pokémon effects

Reason: Verification and whether there are any missing

When interacting with walking Pokémon in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Pokémon may occasionally show an altered mood specific to this location.

  • The walking Pokémon smells the scent of the flowers.

In the anime

Cherrygrove City in the anime

Ash, Misty and Brock visited Cherrygrove City in Once in a Blue Moon during their travels through Johto, where a large group of Quagsire were stealing spherical objects from the city, including Ash's GS Ball, and performing a ritual to the moon at a waterfall.

Alex Davis is revealed to be from the city in Power Play!, as well as Salvador, who Ash battled in A Claim to Flame!.

Trivia

  • Cherrygrove City is the second smallest city of Johto, which is ironic since its location is based on Nagoya, which is the fourth largest city of Japan and the second largest city of the region Johto represents.
  • In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the pond behind the Pokémon Center that was present, but inaccessible in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, is accessible through a new path on Route 30. However, this causes a strange phenomenon: due to there being only one set of data for all bodies of water in a given location, entirely different Pokémon can be caught depending on whether the player is in the water on the Cherrygrove City or Route 30 side of the pond. Even stranger is the fact that those found on the Cherrygrove side belong in the sea.
  • In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the green lady in the Pokémon Center mentions that the Communication Center on the second floor was "just built" even though the facility is called the Cable Club. On the Japanese versions, she correctly refers to the Cable Club, in which it is called the Link Club (Japanese: つうしんクラブ). In the Korean versions, she mentions the club by its English name (Korean: 통신센터 Communication Center).
