While Janina immediately headed back to [[Olivine City]] along with the medicine, Ash and his friends stayed behind for Ash's Gym {{pkmn|battle}} at the [[Cianwood Gym|local Gym]]. They soon met the [[Gym Leader]], [[Chuck]], who agreed to have a Gym battle with Ash. The battle ended in Ash's victory, earning him the {{badge|Storm}}. After receiving word from Janina that the medicine had been successfully delivered to Jasmine, Ash and his friends headed off to the [[Whirl Islands]]. | |||

Cianwood City appeared in ''[[PS124|Scrappy Skarmory]]'', where [[Chuck]] was seen waiting for the visit of his old rival [[Walker]]. When Walker was running late, Chuck saw evidence that he had been attacked on his way to Cianwood. However, Walker was next seen to be unhurt, and joined Chuck in an impromptu battle against his attacker: {{DL|Legendary beasts (Adventures)|Suicune}}.

{{GnB|Gold}} and {{GnB|Chris}} traveled to Cianwood City in ''[[GB21|The Secret Of The Fighting Type Pokémon]]'' in order to get the [[Secret Potion|medicine]] for [[Jasmine]]'s [[Amphy|Ampharos]]. They encountered the local [[Gym Leader]], [[Chuck]], who agreed to give them the last pack of the medicine if Gold served as a temporary Gym Leader while he recovered from the injuries he had just received in an accident. After Gold had successfully defeated {{GnB|Black}} in a Gym battle, Chuck gave him the medicine, which he and Chris sent to Olivine City. | |||
In ''[[GB22|Farewell To Pikachu?!]]'', [[Eusine]] arrived to take away [[Gold's Pikachu]], which he had sent back in time with [[Bill]]'s [[Time Capsule]]. Gold refused to hand Pikachu to him, and the two had a battle to determine who would get to keep it, with Gold eventually winning. After this, however, Black unsealed the monstrous [[Black Tyranitar]] in an attempt to catch it, causing it to go on a rampage. It took the combined efforts of the citizens of Olivine and Cianwood City, as well as Gold and Black, to stop the monster's rampage and reseal it. | |||

Cianwood City Gym - Johto Gym #5
| ||||||||
| ||||||||
Location Location of Cianwood City in Johto. | ||||||||
|
Cianwood City (Japanese: タンバシティ Tanba City) is located on the far western edge of Johto, apparently on a totally different landmass than the rest of the region. Due to Cianwood City being at a dead end location in the Johto region, it was not a popular destination. However, in Generation IV it became a notable destination due to the addition of the Safari Zone located to the west of the city.
Tales of Lugia and the whirlpools it creates circulate among the sailors that stop in this port town.
Slogan
Generation II
A Port Surrounded by Rough Seas! (Japanese: あらなみに かこまれた うみのまち A sea town surrounded by rough seas.)
Generation IV
A Port of Crashing Waves (Japanese: あらなみに よせる うみのまち A sea town of crashing waves.)
Places of interest
Kirk's house
Kirk (Japanese: セイジ Seiji), known as Mania (Japanese: マニア Mania) in Generation II, is a PokéManiac who lives in the house directly south from the Gym. Before the player meets him, he is bullied by Silver into giving up his rare Pokémon—Sneasel. To prevent Silver from coming back to steal any more Pokémon, Kirk wants to give the player his Shuckle, nicknamed Shuckie (Japanese: ネッシー Nessie), for safekeeping. This Shuckle has Kirk's Trainer ID number and will act like an outsider in battle.
He will later ask for Shuckie back. If the player agrees, he will let him/her keep it if it has high friendship; otherwise he will take it back. However, he will accuse the player of stealing if Shuckie is not returned.
Photo Studio/Cameron's house
In the Generation II games, the Photo Studio (Japanese: タンバしゃしんオヤジ Tanba's photographer) is where pictures of Pokémon can be taken. This is meant to work with the Game Boy Printer peripheral. The player can print out their Pokédex or the stats of one specific Pokémon. Mail can also be printed.
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, this is the house of Cameron, the Photographer (Japanese: しゃしんオヤジのいえ photographer's house). He has a camera set up outside so the player can take a picture with their party for their Photo Album, which can be seen on the PC. One of Cameron's relatives resides inside the house.

Cianwood City Pharmacy
Cianwood City Pharmacy (Japanese: タンバくすりや Tanba Pharmacy) is a small pharmacy that is over 500 years old. The Cianwood City Pharmacy sells remedies exclusive to the town. Jasmine will ask the player to fetch her Ampharos some medicine from there.
After giving Jasmine the medicine, players can return to the Pharmacy to find that Potions and Full Heals are in stock. If the player goes to Cianwood City before speaking with Jasmine at the Glitter Lighthouse in Olivine City, Potions and Full Heals will be in stock and the SecretPotion will be unavailable.

Area north of the city
In the very north of the city, there is a small area with a ledge where Suicune will be at a certain point in Crystal, HeartGold and SoulSilver. Eusine will appear after it runs away, and will battle the player in an effort to prove himself to Suicune.
Poké Seer
In the very north of the city, there is a small house called the Poké Seer (Japanese: おみとおし seer) with an elderly woman who, in Pokémon Crystal, can tell where and when a Pokémon in the Trainer's party has been caught. She will also comment about how much Pokémon's level has grown from when it was caught.
Unlike in the Generation III and later games, the player is unable to find out where they caught their Pokémon by looking at their Pokémon's summary screen; hence, the Poké Seer is the only way the player can tell where they caught their Pokémon. If a Pokémon traded from another game or an in-game traded Pokémon is shown to her, she will not be able to identify any details about it.
Cianwood Gym
- Main article: Cianwood Gym
The Cianwood Gym is the official Gym of Cianwood City. It is based on Fighting-type Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Chuck, whom the Trainer will see either lifting a boulder in Generation II or meditating under a waterfall in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Trainers who defeat him receive the Storm Badge. Obtaining this Badge is usually the only reason that people travel to Cianwood City. Outside the Gym is Chuck's wife, who will give the player HM02 (Fly) after defeating Chuck.
The Gym guide for the Cianwood Gym is inside the local Pokémon Center rather than the Gym itself. This is played for humor, with the guide claiming that he is afraid of the Gym's tough Trainers.
Entrance to Cliff Edge Gate
- Main article: Cliff Edge Gate
In HeartGold and SoulSilver, to the west of Cianwood City is an entrance to Cliff Edge Gate, a small cave located between the city and Route 47, which leads to the Safari Zone. The entrance is initially blocked but the player will be able to go through once Jasmine's Amphy is healed in Olivine City.
Demographics
Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, Cianwood City's population is 19.
Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, Cianwood City has a population of 27. This makes it an average-sized city. It has little immigration, because of its remote position in Johto. Cianwood City is strongly related to Olivine City, as the only route to Cianwood is via Olivine.
In HeartGold and SoulSilver, a Safari Zone was added to the west of Cianwood City, meaning that those heading for the Safari Zone would have to pass through Cianwood City.

In the anime
Cianwood City appeared in Machoke, Machoke Man!, where Ash, his friends, and Janina traveled there to get medicine for Jasmine's sick Ampharos. While Janina immediately headed back to Olivine City along with the medicine, Ash and his friends stayed behind for Ash's Gym battle at the local Gym. They soon met the Gym Leader, Chuck, who agreed to have a Gym battle with Ash. The battle ended in Ash's victory, earning him the Storm Badge. After receiving word from Janina that the medicine had been successfully delivered to Jasmine, Ash and his friends headed off to the Whirl Islands.
Darren, a Trainer who participated in the Silver Conference, is from Cianwood City.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
Cianwood City appeared in Scrappy Skarmory, where Chuck was seen waiting for the visit of his old rival Walker. When Walker was running late, Chuck saw evidence that he had been attacked on his way to Cianwood. However, Walker was next seen to be unhurt, and joined Chuck in an impromptu battle against his attacker: Suicune. They were ultimately unable to defeat and catch the Legendary Pokémon, which then fled.
In the Pokémon Gold and Silver: The Golden Boys manga
Gold and Chris traveled to Cianwood City in The Secret Of The Fighting Type Pokémon in order to get the medicine for Jasmine's Ampharos. They encountered the local Gym Leader, Chuck, who agreed to give them the last pack of the medicine if Gold served as a temporary Gym Leader while he recovered from the injuries he had just received in an accident. After Gold had successfully defeated Black in a Gym battle, Chuck gave him the medicine, which he and Chris sent to Olivine City.
In Farewell To Pikachu?!, Eusine arrived to take away Gold's Pikachu, which he had sent back in time with Bill's Time Capsule. Gold refused to hand Pikachu to him, and the two had a battle to determine who would get to keep it, with Gold eventually winning. After this, however, Black unsealed the monstrous Black Tyranitar in an attempt to catch it, causing it to go on a rampage. It took the combined efforts of the citizens of Olivine and Cianwood City, as well as Gold and Black, to stop the monster's rampage and reseal it.
Trivia
- Cianwood City is the only city in the entire Pokémon franchise that takes place on land modeled after Shikoku.
- Cianwood was the first Fighting-type Gym where the player received an official League Badge, due to Saffron City's Fighting Dojo losing its official status before the events of Generations I and III.
- Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum have a reference to Cianwood City. When meeting up with Cynthia after earning the Cobble and Fen Badges, she will give the player a SecretPotion. The SecretPotion's description mentions that it was dispensed by the pharmacy in Cianwood City.
