The '''Town Map''' (Japanese: '''タウンマップ''' ''Town Map'') is the first and most basic of the map devices used by {{player}}s of the Pokémon games, and is the navigational item for all [[Generation I]] games, {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, all [[Generation V]] games, and {{pkmn|X and Y}}. In these games, it is a [[key item]], but they can also be found in [[Pokémon Center]]s in Generations III and IV, as well as in [[gate]]s in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.

In the [[Johto]] region, the player receives a map card for the [[Pokégear]] after being given a tour of [[Cherrygrove City]] by the Guide Gent which serves the same purpose in [[Generation II]] and {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. In the [[Hoenn]] region, the [[PokéNav]] and [[PokéNav Plus]] have a built in map that also has the same function as the Town Map for {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

In {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, [[Daisy Oak]] will give it to the {{player}} after he or she receives his or her [[starter Pokémon]] and delivers {{key|III|Oak's Parcel}} to the [[Professor Oak|Professor]]. If it is not obtained here, then it will be given by [[Celio]] at [[Knot Island]] in [[Generation III]].

At first, the map will only display the [[Kanto]] region. During Generation III, after the player has ventured into the [[Sevii Islands]], [[Celio]] will give them an upgraded map, featuring Knot, Boon, and Kin Islands. After defeating the [[Elite Four]] and getting the [[National Pokédex]], Celio will upgrade the map to its complete extent, revealing the final four Sevii Islands. The map display can be changed among the four sections (mainland Kanto; [[Knot Island|Knot]], [[Boon Island|Boon]], and [[Kin Island]]; [[Floe Island|Floe]] and [[Chrono Island]] and [[Navel Rock]]; and [[Fortune Island|Fortune]], [[Quest Island|Quest]], and [[Birth Island]]) at will after getting each new map.

In FireRed and LeafGreen, certain locations in Kanto and the Sevii Islands have a small flavor text, referred to in-game as a "guide". This feature was expanded for every location on the Town Map starting in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:GenI JA Kanto Town Map Reference.png|thumb|"A map of the Kanto region! I hope she gives it to me..."]]
* The Town Map in {{ga|Blue}}'s house in the Japanese versions of the [[Generation I]] games was the only source mentioning Kanto's name before the release {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.
