Ecruteak is known as a historical and mythical city; fittingly, its buildings all feature traditional Japanese architecture, while the tallest building in the city, and perhaps all of Johto, is the ten-story [[Bell Tower]] in the city's northeast corner, built nearly a millennium before the events of the games. The city is known as being a centerpoint of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] native to the Johto region, with the great {{p|Ho-Oh}} once being said to have roosted atop the Bell Tower, and having created three [[Legendary beasts]] of the Pokémon who perished when the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] burned down. | Ecruteak is known as a historical and mythical city; fittingly, its buildings all feature traditional Japanese architecture, while the tallest building in the city, and perhaps all of Johto, is the ten-story [[Bell Tower]] in the city's northeast corner, built nearly a millennium before the events of the games.

The Ecruteak Dance Theater is where the [[Kimono Girl]]s dance and battle. The director will give the player the [[HM]] for {{m|Surf}} in [[Generation II]], after defeating the Kimono Girls, and in [[Generation IV]], after defeating a rude {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}. Each of the five Kimono Girls has an evolution of {{p|Eevee}}: {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Flareon}}, {{p|Jolteon}}, {{p|Espeon}}, and {{p|Umbreon}}. In Generation II, the player can freely choose their order of facing Kimono Girls. In Generation IV, the player battles them in a fixed order, having to defeat all five consecutively. | The Ecruteak Dance Theater is where the [[Kimono Girl]]s dance and battle.
