The Celadon Department Store appeared in Pokémon Scent-sation!.

In the Japanese, French, and Italian versions of Pokémon Yellow, he mentions that Copycat lives in Saffron City. However, due to a localization error in the English and Spanish versions, he incorrectly says that she lives in Cerulean City. In the German version, he does not mention where she lives.
In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Celadon Department Store has a separate save and met location name, but uses the same location ID (0x5E) as the rest of Celadon City—the game temporarily replaces the name of the location with "Celadon Dept." while inside the building. As a result, while inside the building, Pokémon with the met location "Celadon City" instead display "Celadon Dept." as their met location temporarily.
