The Celadon Condominiums (Japanese: タマムシマンション Tamamushi Condominiums) is a large building found in Celadon City that serves as Game Freak's headquarters in Kanto.
Prior to Generation IV, it was called the Celadon Mansion in English due to a mistranslation. This is because マンション mansion is a loanword in Japanese that refers to condominiums, not a mansion.
Role
The Celadon Condominiums is the home of the in-game Game Freak development studio in the Kanto region, where the lead developer will give the player a diploma that signifies that he/she has completed the National Pokédex.
Generations I and III
Players of these games can find an Eevee inside the Know-It-All man's room on the rooftop. He is a non-player character that provides the player with standard information concerning status conditions on his blackboard, much like the Pokémon academy in Viridian City. In Generation III, he also explains how to use the Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter.
The Condominiums play a more vital role in Generation III. The player must enter the building, where, on the first floor, he/she will encounter an old woman, the manager of the facility. She will give the player Tea, which he/she must give to one of the guards in the gates surrounding Saffron City. Also, if the player is pursuing the Fame Checker sidequest, then she provides information about Daisy Oak. The second floor proves useful as well, as the Pokémon Journal contains information on Erika.
Generations II and IV
In Generation II, players can obtain TM03 (Curse) from the man inside the rooftop's room at night. In Generation IV, he gives out the Spell Tag instead. Also in Generation IV, he implies that riding north on Cycling Road will reduce the player's speed; while true in Generation II, there is no longer a speed decrease in Generation IV.
Exclusively in Generation IV, the key item GB Sounds can be obtained here, after getting all 16 Badges.

Layout
Inside design
This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Know-It-All's room from all generations |
The layout remained essentially the same throughout Generations I and III. In Generation IV, it was apparently renovated, with the backdoors having been wiped out and a new system of two elevators added, which take the player to different places of the building.
Outside design

Trivia
- In Pokémon Crystal only, on the roof, on the right side of the staircase that leads up from the front entrance, there is an easter egg. Interacting with it yields the text "There's graffiti on the wall... <Player> added a moustache!"
