Location Location of Vermilion City in Kanto. | ||||||||||
|
Vermilion City (Japanese: クチバシティ Kuchiba City) is a city in Kanto.
Situated near a sea inlet to the south, it serves as a popular sea port for ships such as the S.S. Anne. Vermilion Harbor is a home port for many ships. The S.S. Anne sails around the world and returns to Vermilion once a year. The S.S. Aqua sails from Olivine City in Johto to Vermilion Harbor. The Seagallop Ferries sail regularly to all of the Sevii Islands. Aside from the harbor, the other exits to the city are Route 11 and Diglett's Cave to the east. North of the city is Route 6.
Slogan
The Port of Exquisite Sunsets (Japanese, Generations I-III: クチバは オレンジ ゆうやけのいろ Kuchiba is the color of orange sunsets.; Generation IV: ゆうやけいろの みなとまち The sunset-colored port town.)
Places of interest
Vermilion City is home to the "Lightning American" Lt. Surge, the Leader of the Electric-specialist Gym. The people in the town are careful about pollution, as they are afraid that an infestation of Grimer could occur if the seas were ever polluted, as Celadon City suffers from this in Generations II and IV. Wild Pokémon appear in the sea around the city. Vermilion is also home to the Fan Club Chairman. He can be found in the Pokémon Fan Club house located just slightly north of the Gym. By talking to him, the player can obtain a voucher for a free bike, the only way to obtain a bike since the price of $1,000,000 is impossible.
Harbor
This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Map of harbor (Generations II and IV) |
Vermilion HarborRBYFRLG or Vermilion Port EntranceGSCHGSS (Japanese: クチバみなといりぐち Kuchiba Port Entrance) is one of the larger docks in the Kanto region, and ships such as the S.S. Anne, S.S. Aqua, and Seagallop Ferries dock here.
S.S. Anne
- Main article: S.S. Anne
The S.S. Anne is a well-known luxury cruise liner that sails the world, stopping annually in Vermilion City. In the Generation I games and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the player can board the S.S. Anne if they have an S.S. Ticket, but cannot stay on it for its departure. This ship contains many Trainers looking for a battle.
S.S. Aqua
- Main article: S.S. Aqua
In the Generation II games and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the S.S. Aqua takes the place of the S.S. Anne, and travels between Vermilion City and Olivine City in Johto on Wednesdays and Sundays. The player must have the S.S. Ticket in order to board it.
Pokémon Fan Club
- Main article: Pokémon Fan Club
The Kanto chapter of the Pokémon Fan Club is located in Vermilion. The Pokémon Fan Club is an organization spread throughout the Pokémon world, with at least one Club House in nearly every region. The Fan Club is basically a place for people to meet and chat about their favorite Pokémon and to show off their collections to each other. In general, the members are usually more oriented to unevolved, cute Pokémon.
By talking to the Fan Club Chairman he will start a long talk with the player. He talks about his two favorite Pokémon, Rapidash and Fearow at length and then gives the player a voucher to get a bicycle. In Pokémon Yellow he got a new hobby - taking Pokémon photos. The big photos of his Rapidash and Fearow can be seen on the walls of the clubhouse. He appears again in Generation II and its Generation IV remakes in the same place. Again, he talks about his Rapidash and gives the player a Rare Candy for listening to his story.
Vermilion Gym
- Main article: Vermilion Gym
The Vermilion Gym is the official Gym of Vermilion City. Its Gym Leader, Lt. Surge, focuses on Electric-type Pokémon. Trainers who defeat him receive the Thunder Badge. The Vermilion Gym appears in all games set in the Kanto region, appearing much the same in each: the main room is filled with 15 trash cans, and Trainers are scattered about this room. Beyond this room is another, guarded by electric doors in Generation I, and an electric fence in Generation III. The only way to get in the final room in these generations, where Lt. Surge is located, is to find two switches underneath the trash cans. If the first switch was found, but the player incorrectly guessed the second one, the traps would reset. In Generation II, these traps are not turned on. After Lt. Surge is defeated, he will give the player the Thunder Badge, TM34 (Shock Wave) or TM24 (Thunderbolt) in Generation I, and the ability to use Fly outside of battle.
Construction site
In the northeastern part of the city, there is an old man whose Machop is preparing a plot of land for construction of a building. They still have not finished three years after he started in Generation I, as he does not have enough money to begin building. This man's Machop can cause a glitch in Generation II. In Generation IV, the construction site consumes most of the north-eastern side of the city, playing a slightly bigger role in the game; there are many smashable rocks surrounding the building site that conceal many hidden items such as Shards, Heart Scales, and other valuable items.
In-game trade
In one of the houses south and a little east of the Pokémon Center is a girl that wants to trade the player a Farfetch'd for a Spearow. The Farfetch'd will be nicknamed "CH'DING" ("DUX" in Generation I), and it will be holding a Stick. The OT will be "ELYSSA" and its ID will be 08810. The Pokémon's level will be the same as the one that the player traded. Oddly enough, when traded to Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald or transferred to Generation IV, the OT is shown as being colored blue - despite that the previous owner of that Farfetch'd is a girl, and even has a girl name. The OT also remains blue upon transferring it further into Generation V. It is unknown if this minor oversight will ever get fixed.
Fishing Brother
In Generations I and III, a man known as the Fishing Guru can be found in Vermilion City who gives away an Old Rod to the player. Later (in Generations II and IV), he is known as the Fishing Dude and claims to be the eldest of the Fishing Brothers.
Sleeping Pokémon notice
There's a notice in Generations I and III near the entrance to Diglett's Cave about a sleeping Pokémon that's blocking Route 12, advising people wishing to go to Lavender Town to detour through the Rock Tunnel instead in the meantime.
Demographics
Pokémon Red and Blue
In Pokémon Red and Blue, the population of Vermilion City is 25 (not including the passengers on the S.S. Anne).
Pokémon Yellow
In Pokémon Yellow, the population of Vermilion City has increased to 26 (not including the passengers on the S.S. Anne). This is because Officer Jenny has been added.
Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the population of Viridian City is 30. The increase in population is possibly due to the addition of the harbor building.
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen
In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Vermilion City has a population of 29 (not including the passengers on the S.S. Anne).
Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the population of Vermilion City is 34; the population has increased by five since Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, possibly due to the addition of the harbor building.

Differences among generations
Much has changed from Generation I to Generation III. Most of the city is now covered in grass and sandy patches along the shoreline. The construction site has grown, while the Pokémon Fan Club has been redesigned and expanded. The S.S. Anne's port has also had an archway added to the entrance. In Generation II nothing major has changed, though the city has extended into Route 11 near Diglett's Cave and the Vermilion City port has been redesigned into a building, where the S.S. Aqua transports passengers to and from Olivine City in Johto. Also, Snorlax was also relocated from Route 12 to the entrance to Diglett's Cave. To move it, Trainers had to use a Pokégear tuned to the PokéFlute Channel, as the Poké Flute did not exist in the Generation II games. In Generation IV, the Diglett's Cave is pushed back to Route 11.
In the spin-off games
In Pokémon Pinball
In Pokémon Pinball, Vermilion City makes two appearances: the Seaside (Red table) and the Streets (Blue table).
In the Red table, called "Vermilion City Seaside", catchable Pokémon include: Pidgey, Ekans, Oddish, Farfetch'd, Shellder and Krabby.
In the Blue table, called "Vermilion City Streets", catchable Pokémon include: Sandshrew, Farfetch'd, Shellder, Drowzee, Krabby and Pinsir.
In the anime
In the main series
Vermilion City debuted in Electric Shock Showdown, where Ash battled Lt. Surge for his third Badge. The harbor appeared in Battle Aboard the St. Anne, when Ash, Misty, and Brock boarded the St. Anne.
O has a Pokémon Ping-Pong center, where he is training Dawn's Ambipom, in Vermilion City.
In Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!, Ash and company's tour of the Decolore Islands ended at Vermilion City. The city was shown to have a local train station, with Iris and Cilan taking the train to Saffron City in order to board the Magnet Train there. Alexa also bought Cloyster boxed lunches for the two, which is exclusively sold in Vermilion City.
In Pokémon Origins
Although Vermilion City was never properly seen in Pokémon Origins, Red recalled having visited it prior to the events of File 2 - Cubone. During his visit, he obtained the HM for Cut from the captain of S.S. Anne and earned the Thunder Badge by defeating Lt. Surge at the Vermilion Gym.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
Vermilion is split into two main areas; the center city and the port. The Kanto Pokémon Fan Club headquarters is located in the center city and the S.S. Anne arrives once in a month in the port. Some of the citizens are Pokéfans and Sailors.
The first visit to Vermilion covers the rounds from Danger: High Voltorb to Buzz Off, Electabuzz!. Here, Red saves the citizens' Pokémon kidnapped by Lt. Surge.
The Vermilion Harbor is the setting of six rounds beginning with Ekans the Ecstasy through to Breath of Dragonair Part 3. In these chapters, the S.S. Anne sinks to the bottom of the harbor. Yellow is also told the legend of the harbor by the Pokémon Fan Club Chairman: apparently, four evolutionary stones lie at the bottom of the harbor and never lose their powers of starting a Pokémon's evolution.
In the FireRed and LeafGreen arc, Red and Blue flew to Vermilion to board the Seagallop for Knot Island. The Seagallop returned to Vermilion carrying Blue, Green and her parents, Lorelei, Ultima and Professor Oak, at the same time that a Team Rocket airship, that Red was trying to control, was about to crash somewhere in Vermilion.
Trivia
- In Generation I, a truck appears as scenery in the S.S. Anne's port, though it is only visible if the player actively seeks it out. Due to the scarcity of scenery in the Generation I games, as they were on a less powerful system, rumors began to spring up about its purpose, although it is ultimately purely cosmetic. It reappeared in the Generation III games, in which a Lava Cookie can be found hidden on the southern end of the same pier as it.
- Vermilion City and Cinnabar Island are named after the same color in the English versions of the Pokémon games but not in the Japanese versions, since vermilion (クチバ) refers to a shade of orange while crimson (グレン) refers to a shade of red. Vermilion is an orange-red pigment, produced from the orange-red mineral cinnabar. This explains why Vermilion City is colored orange while Cinnabar Island is colored red in the Generation I games when played with the Super Game Boy enhancements enabled on a compatible system or with the Game Boy Color enhancements available in the international releases of Pokémon Yellow.
- In Generations II and IV, there is a photo of people fishing inside the Fishing Dude's house. The player's reaction differs between the two generations:
- Generation II: "It's a photo of people fishing... They're having a great time..."
- Generation IV: "You found something in between the pages... It's a photo of people fishing... They look identical!"
