The '''Old Chateau''' (Japanese: '''{{j|もりのようかん}}''' ''Forest Manor'') is an abandoned {{wp|manor house}} near the exit of [[Eterna Forest]].

 

On the second floor, left and right of the main room extends a library, where old books are crammed into bookshelves. There are also four bedrooms that can be accessed by traveling further up to the first floor. In one of the rooms there is a [[Television|TV]] that is on and displaying a plain, white, flickering screen. The TV is inhabited by a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Rotom}}, which comes out exclusively at {{DL|Time|night}} to initiate a {{pkmn|battle}} (in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, this requires entering the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtaining the [[National Pokédex]]). In another room, there is a portrait with glowing red eyes that stare at and seem to follow the player, but only while the player is in that room.

Occasionally, the ghosts of a little girl and a butler appear in the rightmost bedroom on the second floor and in the dining hall, respectively. They cannot be interacted with and move by floating.

===In the main series===

The Old Chateau is located in [[Canalave City]] in the anime. Here people can make the [[Old Gateau]] using the instructions and ingredients found there. It is also run with an automated voice to guide the people visiting the mansion, which also served as a hotel.  

In the episode ''[[DP105|Get Your Rotom Running!]]'', it was abandoned for a while due to electricity problems from a recent thunderstorm. As a result, a {{p|Rotom}} took residence there for a while to play with the people coming in by possessing different appliances.

===In Pokémon Generations===

The Old Chateau appeared as the focus point of the episode ''[[PG10|The Old Chateau]]''. [[Cheryl]] and her {{p|Chansey}} were drawn there while looking for a place to stay overnight while exploring the [[Eterna Forest]]. While inside, the two were tricked and eventually attacked by the ghosts of a butler and a little girl.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===

In ''[[PS345|Robust Rotom]]'', {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} discover the Old Chateau while leading {{adv|Platinum}} through the Eterna Forest. Platinum, unaware that the manor-like building had long been deserted, decides that she and her bodyguards stay overnight inside. During their stay, a globe of energy emerges around Diamond and Pearl, spooking them in the process. Diamond manages to lure the energy globe into a television in one of the rooms. Subsequently, the trio enjoy a peaceful night's sleep before leaving the next morning.

In ''[[PS430|Unplugging Rotom (Heat, Wash, Mow, Fan, Frost)]]'', Diamond and Pearl return to the Old Chateau to seek out the Pokémon they had seen before, as they were co-operating with the Sinnoh [[Pokémon Association]] to stop [[Charon]] from capturing the Pokémon that were detailed in his notebook. Charon had referred to the Old Chateau's plasma-like substance as {{p|Rotom}}. This time, Rotom emerges from the television and flees the chateau.
