Rocket Game Corner

The Rocket Game Corner is one of the six Game Corners. It is situated in Celadon City, Kanto and run by Team Rocket. In Generation II, it is no longer run by Team Rocket, and renamed the Celadon Game Corner. It is "The Playground for Everybody." During its time as a Team Rocket operation, its catchphrase is "The Playground for Grown-ups."

In Generation I and the Generation III remakes, the only game available is slots which people in the game say are rigged. In Generation II, a Card Flip game is added. Players need a Coin Case to play any of these games.

In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions, there is a machine in the corner of the building which takes a photo of the player's current Pokémon party to put on the back of the Trainer card.

By pushing a button underneath a poster, the player gains access to the Rocket Hideout. The hideout is not accessible in Generation II, but people have not forgotten about it.

Games

Slot machines

Generation I

There are thirty slot machines in the Game Corner, with eight of them having people already seated at them, one that is labeled "out of order," one labeled "reserved," and one where someone left their keys.

Payouts
  • 7 7 7 - 300 coins
  • Three Bars - 100 coins
  • Three Poliwag - 15 coins
  • Three Diglett - 15 coins
  • Three Jigglypuff - 15 coins
  • Three cherries - 8 coins

Generation II

There are thirty slot machines in the Game Corner, with eight of them having people already seated at them.

One to three coins can be put in the Slot Machine each play. One coin will only count the center row across, two coins will count all three rows across, and three coins will count all three rows across as well as both diagonals. The reels stop spinning when the A button is pressed.

In the second generation games, several Golem will drop when two 7's are lined up. This improves the chances of lining up three 7's.

Payouts

Generation III

There are thirty slot machines in the Game Corner, with eight of them having people already seated at them.

One to three coins can be put in the Slot Machine each play. One coin will only count the center row across, two coins will count all three rows across, and three coins will count all three rows across as well as both diagonals. The reels stop spinning when the A button is pressed.

The machine with the best odds is across the aisle from the bottom right machine, where a gentleman is sitting.

Payouts

Card Flip

The Card Flip game is exclusive to Generation II. Players can pick either a card or a group of cards, similar in nature to Roulette, which was included in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Rocket Game Corner has appeared in Tauros the Tyrant, A Jynx Jinx and in A Tale of Ninetales in the Red, Green & Blue Chapter. There is a switch that Team Rocket use to get to the Rocket Hideout. Red and Green watched ouside in the second appearance and used Green's Ditto as a decoy disguised as Mew.

In its next appearance Blue used loads of coins to exchange for an almost untamable Porygon (which later made Red and Blue "trade" Pokémon temporarily).

Trivia

  • In Generations I and III, the caretaker of Celadon Gym can be found playing the slot machines, instead of advising the player on how to defeat Erika.
  • In Generations II and IV, if the player examines the poster, the text will say that there's nothing there, a reference to the switch in Generation I.
