Porta Vista is a location exclusive to the Pokémon anime. It is located somewhere in between Vermilion City and Maiden's Peak. On Pokémon.com and in the Japanese versions of Beauty and the Beach and Tentacool & Tentacruel, Porta Vista was actually two different towns: Acapulco (Japanese: アオプルコ Aopulco) and Hutber Port (Japanese: ハトバポート Hatoba Port), respectively.
The fact that the two different towns were combined into one in the dub is a side effect of Beauty and the Beach's initial pulling from the rotation. Without that episode in the rotation, the dub portrayed a wide shot of Acapulco from the prior episode to lead into the inside of Hutber Port in the next episode, both of which were called Porta Vista to attempt to conceal any plotholes. When the missing episode was finally dubbed, the towns remained combined to avoid any huge continuity errors between it and the episodes surrounding it.

Here, Brutella's cousin, Nastina, wanted to build a hotel in the middle of the ocean. However, the Tentacool that lived there were being disturbed by it. Nastina hired Team Rocket to get rid of them, but all they ended up doing was forcing one of the Tentacool to evolve into a Tentacruel and grow it to several hundred feet tall. It began destroying all of Hutber Port until Misty convinced it that not all humans are like Nastina, and that all construction would cease on the hotel.
This is also the location where Misty caught her Horsea.
