* It was long believed that Cinnabar Island once was the tip of a {{wp|stratovolcano}} or a {{wp|shield volcano}} since no mountain was visible on the island for the first three [[generation]]s. This was changed in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} where a mountain stratovolcano is actually there and can be reached by using {{m|Rock Climb}}, indicating that lack of diverse scenery in the past games was the reason for no mountain being there. However, all map artworks throughout the generations have shown the volcano to be there. | * It was long believed that Cinnabar Island once was the tip of a {{wp|stratovolcano}} or a {{wp|shield volcano}} since no mountain was visible on the island for the first three [[generation]]s.

There is also {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|Man on roof|a trick to see a man on the roof}} of the [[Cinnabar Gym|Gym]]. However, both of these glitches were fixed in some regional versions. | ||
* Unlike the localizations, in the Japanese versions, Cinnabar Island has two distinctive names: {{tt|グレンじま|Guren Jima}} ''Guren Island'' and {{tt|グレンタウン|Guren Taun}} ''Guren Town''. The former refers to the island itself, while the latter to the town on it. On the [[Town Map|map]], ironically, it is referred to as グレンじま ''Guren Island'' while the town exists (Generations I and III), and as グレンタウン ''Guren Town'' when the town has been destroyed (Generations II and IV). However, both Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}} and Generations {{Gen|II}} and {{Gen|IV}} mention both on different occasions. The system of naming both the island and town is continued in the [[Sevii Islands]]. | * Unlike the localizations, in the Japanese versions, Cinnabar Island has two distinctive names: {{tt|グレンじま|Guren Jima}} ''Guren Island'' and {{tt|グレンタウン|Guren Taun}} ''Guren Town''.

* Cinnabar Island is the only settlement with a [[Gym]] whose name ends in neither ''City'' nor ''Town''. Despite this, one of its Japanese names ends in ''Town''. However, there is no Gym here in Generations {{Gen|II}} and {{Gen|IV}} as it is located in the [[Seafoam Islands]] instead. | * Cinnabar Island is the only settlement with a [[Gym]] whose name ends in neither ''City'' nor ''Town''.
