Celadon City (Japanese: タマムシシティ Tamamushi City) is located in central Kanto. It is one of the largest cities in the region, second only to the giant Saffron City in the east. The city has two entrances, one from the east via Route 7, and one from the west via Route 16. Celadon is home to Erika, the city's Gym Leader and Eusine, the hunter that pursues Suicune.

Places of interest

Celadon Department Store

Main article: Celadon Department Store

Celadon's department store is the largest building in the city, as well as the largest shop in Kanto. It is located in the northwest corner of the city. The store has two sliding door entrances, and is six stories high, including a roof level. In front of it lies a decorative fountain.

Celadon Mansion

Main article: Celadon Mansion

Next to the city's Pokémon Center is the Celadon Mansion, where staff members of Game Freak rent a room from an old lady.

Game Corner

Main article: Rocket Game Corner

The southern part of the city caters to travelers and tourists. In addition to a hotel and a restaurant, the Game Corner is a popular spot. The citizens take pride in the city's beauty and think the casino is bad for their image.

The Rocket Game Corner sells very rare Pokémon such as Dratini and Porygon in exchange for coins.

In the Generation I games, the player must go into the underbelly of the Game Corner and defeat Team Rocket. In Generation II, it has been renamed the Celadon Game Corner and is no longer run by Team Rocket.

Perfume Shop

Attached to the Celadon Gym is a perfume shop, run by Erika herself.

In the anime, Ash expressed disgust at the fragrances and was banned from the perfume shop and thus the Gym.

Move Tutor

In Generation III, there is a move tutor who will teach Softboiled to certain Pokémon.

Trivia

  • Its Japanese motto is タマムシ にじいろ ゆめの いろ.
  • In Chikorita's Big Upset, it is mentioned that Celadon City has a university, where the episode's Nurse Joy studied Pokémon psychology. In a later episode it is revealed that Professor Oak used to teach there. In Pokémon Special, the university is where Erika teaches on top of her Gym duties.
  • In Generation I, there was an invisible PC in the hotel. This fact is explained by the close resemblance between the hotel and a Pokémon Center. This was less a glitch and more likely an oversight by the programmers who may have forgotten to remove the code to activate the PC at that particular point (though the sprite of the PC itself is no longer there).
