A hometown is a town that a person considers their home. In the core series video games, it is the town that the player's journey begins in.
In the games
In the core series games, the player and their rival will begin their journey in their hometown, venturing onto the first routes from there, encountering the Pokémon Professor, and getting their starter Pokémon. After defeating the Elite Four and Champion, the player will start again from their hometown when the game is next loaded.
The hometown varies with the region the player starts in:
- Kanto: Pallet Town
- Johto: New Bark Town
- Hoenn: Littleroot Town
- Sinnoh: Twinleaf Town
- Unova: Nuvema TownBW/Aspertia CityB2W2
- Kalos: Vaniville Town
- Alola: Hau'oli Outskirts

- Cerulean City is the hometown of Misty and her sisters. She lived there until the age of ten when she decided to become a Water Pokémon master and to get away from her sisters. She returned to Cerulean City later on and became a full-time Gym Leader.

In the manga
The various series of Pokémon manga follow the games in having their main characters start in Pallet Town, New Bark Town, Littleroot Town, Twinleaf Town and Nuvema Town. There are some characters, though, that have unique hometowns such as Yellow from Pokémon Adventures who was born in Viridian Forest.
