Cinnabar Island: Difference between revisions

As seen in [[generation]]s {{gen|II}} and IV, two years after the events of generations I and {{gen|III}}, a volcano erupted on the island, destroying everything. The only building present is a [[Pokémon Center]], with the Cinnabar Gym having been relocated to the [[Seafoam Islands]].

The Pokémon Mansion is a decrepit, burned-down mansion on Cinnabar Island. It got its name because a famous Pokémon researcher once lived there. To access the Cinnabar Island [[Gym]] in [[generation]]s {{gen|I}}, {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, the player has to enter the mansion and find the {{ka|Secret Key}} to unlock the door of the Gym. Many {{tc|Burglar}}s come to the mansion, trying to steal valuable items that may have been lost in the wreckage. Several [[Pokémon Mansion journals|journal entries]] can be found around the mansion, describing the discovery of {{p|Mew}} and the creation of {{p|Mewtwo}}.

The Cinnabar Lab, known as the Pokémon Lab prior to [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], is a laboratory located on Cinnabar Island. It was founded by [[Mr. Fuji|Dr. Fuji]] and appears in the Generation I games and their [[remake]]s. In generations I and III, the west room of the Cinnabar Lab has two people who will offer to [[trade]] Pokémon. In the east room, there is a scientist who will revive the [[Fossil]]s the player has obtained. In [[Silph Co.]], there is a Pokémon Report stating that Cinnabar Lab created {{p|Porygon}}.

The Cinnabar Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Cinnabar Island, it is based on {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and the [[Gym Leader]] is [[Blaine]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{Badge|Volcano}}. The player is unable to enter the Gym at once; only when they obtain the {{ka|Secret Key}} from the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} can they unlock the door to the Gym. In generations II and IV, Blaine's original Gym on Cinnabar Island was destroyed by a volcanic eruption. This forced him to relocate to a cave in the [[Seafoam Islands]].

Cinnabar Island has changed dramatically between [[generation]]s {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|II}} as the city has been totally replaced by a large erupted volcano, removing everything except for the [[Pokémon Center]]. After the eruption, the [[Gym]] was relocated to the [[Seafoam Islands]]. {{ga|Blue}} can be first found at Cinnabar Island, because he was in a bad mood and decided to take a stroll there. In [[Generation III]], there are a few changes with the visual design, as the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} and [[Cinnabar Lab|Pokémon Lab]] are slightly larger along with more sandy beach areas. The first and last questions in the Cinnabar Gym have also been changed slightly for clarification. In [[Generation IV]], the island stays much the same as [[Generation II]], although the volcano is now climbable by {{m|Rock Climb}}.
