The Power Plant (Japanese: 無人発電所 Abandoned Power Plant in Generations I, III, and VII, 発電所 Power Plant in Generations II and IV), occasionally referred to as the Kanto Power Plant (Japanese: カントーはつでんしょ Kanto Power Plant) in Generations II and IV, is a facility located on Route 10 in Kanto.
Description
The Power Plant was abandoned years before the events of the Generation I, III, and VII games, though some of the machinery still works. It was refurbished at some time before Generations II and IV to provide power for the Magnet Train. In Generations I, III, and VII, it is a home for Electric-type Pokémon. SurfingRBYGSCFRLGHGSS or Sea SkimmingPE from Route 10 is required to reach it.
Many item balls located inside of the Power Plant are actually Voltorb or Electrode, making it somewhat hazardous to look for treasure here.
It is the roost of the Legendary Pokémon Zapdos in Generations I, III, VII.
Grimer and Muk can be found here in Pokémon Yellow and Let's Go, Pikachu!, a direct reference to the Pokémon the Series episode Sparks Fly for Magnemite, where a group of Grimer and a Muk took over a power plant in Gringey City.

Differences between generations
Generations I, III, and VII
The Power Plant is littered with machinery that has fallen into disrepair. Many of the changes throughout the three generations are simply cosmetic, the most notable one being Generation III changing the exit in Zapdos's room to lead to the side of the Power Plant instead of back to the entrance, and Generation VII having no back exit in the room and instead having a warp panel that leads to the entrance. The background music differs among generations. In Generation I, the BGM is the same as the Rocket Hideout and Cerulean Cave; in Generation III, it instead plays the Pokémon Mansion's theme; and in Generation VII, it plays the theme of the Silph Co.
Generation II
The inside is reduced drastically, and is taken up by scientists working at various computers as well as in a separate generator room. The wild Pokémon found here in Generation I instead reside outside, while Zapdos has apparently fled.
Generation IV
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the inside is redesigned yet again to be a single room, with the generator in the middle and the scientists at their computers spread around the room. Wild Pokémon reside outside like in Generation II, including Zapdos, which returns after the Machine Part is restored and all 16 Badges have been earned.

In animation
Pokémon the Series
The Kanto Power Plant appeared in A Crackling Raid Battle!. In the anime, it is an unmanned facility located near Vermilion City, which provides the Cerise Laboratory with electricity. When Professor Cerise detected signs of a Zapdos appearing at Vermilion Port, Goh deduced that the thunderclouds Professor Cerise had detected were not surrounding Zapdos, but were just being created by it. Following this deduction, he led Ash to the Power Plant, where they encountered Team Rocket, who had been scouting the building as a potential base and was surprised to learn that Zapdos could be there too.
Goh's deduction turned out to be correct, and the group found Zapdos absorbing energy from the Power Plant's generator. They engaged the Legendary Pokémon in a Raid Battle, but when Zapdos headed outside, Team Rocket stopped Ash from following Goh to the roof in an attempt to steal Pikachu. Goh battled Zapdos with Raboot and Flygon, but despite managing to land some hits on it, he ultimately failed to catch it like he had hoped.
Pokémon Origins
The Power Plant appeared in File 4: Charizard. Red battled Zapdos inside with his Tauros, eventually catching the Legendary bird off-screen.
In the manga
Pokémon Adventures
The Power Plant in Pokémon Adventures
In Pokémon Adventures, the Power Plant is a building project that was never completed. The industrial waste from the construction site has affected the lives of many Pokémon living in the surrounding areas, including on Route 9, where the waste has killed off most of the local plant life, sending many Pokémon wandering around in search for food.
In Holy Moltres, Team Rocket Commander Lt. Surge reported to Giovanni that he had caught Zapdos at the Power Plant.
In Lapras Lazily, Blue revealed how he had encountered Agatha of the Elite Four at the Power Plant before the start of the Indigo Plateau's Pokémon League tournament.
Pokémon Pocket Monsters
Red and his Pokémon visited the Power Plant in Regain the Deserted Power Plant!. Like many places that he visits, the Power Plant ended up being destroyed by Red's Clefairy.
In the TCG
This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring the Power Plant in the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
Trivia
- In Generation I, if the player is currently at the Power Plant and opens the Town Map, pressing down will do nothing at first, as the selection will go from the Power Plant (the current location) to Power Plant again due to an oversight. The player will need to press down twice to select the previous location, which is Indigo Plateau. Similarly, the player will need to press up twice on Route 1 to go to the next location on the Town Map.
