A warp tile or teleport tile is a special tile featured in games since Generation I. Once stepped upon, the player is transported instantly to a connecting warp tile elsewhere. The connecting warp tile could be anywhere, generally within the building that the player is exploring.
In the games
Generation I and FireRed/LeafGreen
The warp tile is first and predominately found in Silph Co.'s head office building in Saffron City. Inside there is a mass network of the tiles, which the player has to navigate through in order to complete the task. In FireRed and LeafGreen, this task was made easier, as the floor number was displayed each time the player was transported. Warp tiles are also found in Saffron Gym. Warp tiles in Kanto are indicated by a diamond.
Generation II
Unlike the preceding generation, warp tiles are rare in Generation II. In Johto, one can be found in the Team Rocket base in Mahogany Town, which, unlike standard warp tiles, transports the player to a normal tile instead of another warp tile. Warp tiles can also be found in Saffron Gym in Kanto. Warp tiles in Johto are indicated by a diamond.
Generation III
In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, warp tiles only serve as a quick exit from the gym from Tate & Liza's area and a similarily-designed maze in the Trick House. They have an expanded role in Pokémon Emerald, where warp tiles are used to traverse Mossdeep Gym's maze similar to that in Saffron Gym, and again to traverse a similar maze in the Trick House. Hoenn also introduced one-way warp tiles, where the tile on the other end of the warp is a warp tile but does nothing if stepped on. These one-way tiles are the only warp tiles in Ruby and Sapphire. Warp tiles in Hoenn are indicated by a circle.
Generation IV
In Sinnoh, warp tiles can be found in the Galactic Veilstone Building. Two-way warp tiles are yellow and only go between areas on the same floor, while one-way warp tiles are green and only go between areas on different floors. Warp tiles in Sinnoh are indicated by a circle.
