In the anime
The Hidden Village appeared in the episode Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village.
Ash and his friends stumbled across the Hidden Village by accident. They were trying to head to Vermilion City and had gotten lost. While on the way, Brock fell off of a bridge and was swept away by a river. Melanie rescued him, and she brought Ash and Misty to the village.
Helping to protect the village was a Bulbasaur, who Melanie said volunteered to guard it. Although it meant well, the Bulbasaur was unintentionally causing all the Pokémon to stay in the village since it was so safe. After saving it from Team Rocket, Melanie asked Ash if he wanted Bulbasaur to come with him. Ash agreed, and captured the Bulbasaur.
After Ash and his friends left the village, it was never seen in the anime again.
