The '''Pewter Museum of Science''' (Japanese: '''ニビ{{tt|科学博物館|かがくはくぶつかん}}''' ''Nibi Museum of Science'') is located in the north side of [[Pewter City]], [[Kanto]], and is one of the city's main attractions.


The '''Pewter Museum of Science''' is located in the north side of [[Pewter City]], [[Kanto]], and is one of the city's main attractions. The Pewter Museum of Science hosts a wide range of attractions and exhibits, largely based around space and fossil exploration. The museum holds a huge collection of artifacts, including rocks from the moon, space shuttles, and fossils of ancient Pokémon. The admission is {{pdollar}}50 for a child's ticket.

The Pewter Museum of Science hosts a wide range of attractions and exhibits, largely based around space and [[Fossil]] exploration. The museum holds a huge collection of artifacts, including rocks from the moon, space shuttles, and Fossils of ancient Pokémon. The admission is {{PDollar}}50 for a child's ticket.

===Floors===
===Floors===
There are two floors to explore in the Pewter Museum of Science. The first floor holds the front desk, and a fossil exhibit containing the fossils of {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}}. These sprites can also be seen when performing the [[Old Man Glitch]], under the name of [[Missingno.]], if the trick is done properly. The second floor hosts a space exhibit, featuring a Space Shuttle and {{evostone|Moon Stone}} that fell onto [[Mt. Moon]]. The player is able to explore the museum at any time, after paying the {{pdollar}}50 admission fee.

There are two floors to explore in the Pewter Museum of Science. The first floor holds the front desk and a Fossil exhibit containing the Fossils of {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}}. [[MissingNo.]] may use these sprites, depending on its [[List of Pokémon by index number (Generation I)|index number]]. The second floor hosts a space exhibit, featuring a Space Shuttle and [[Moon Stone]] that fell onto [[Mt. Moon]]. The {{player}} is able to explore the museum at any time, after paying the {{PDollar}}50 admission fee.
Once the ability to use {{m|Cut}} out of battle is gained, the player can sneak into the back of the museum and acquire the [[Old Amber]] from a scientist there, allowing the player to revive an {{p|Aerodactyl}} later in the game. In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, there is also a [[move tutor]] who will teach {{m|Seismic Toss}}.

In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, there is also a [[Move Tutor]] who will teach {{m|Seismic Toss}}.


In [[Generation II]], the museum is closed due to renovations.
In [[Generation II]], the museum is closed due to renovations.


In [[Generation IV]], however, the museum is open for business. There is a scientist in the museum who will revive a player's fossils, much like the scientist at [[Cinnabar Island]]'s [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Generation]] {{gen|I}} and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]]. This is due to the fact that Fossils can be found under rocks using {{m|Rock Smash}}, unlike in [[Generation II]] where players were required to transfer Fossil Pokémon from the [[Generation I]] games using the [[Time Capsule]]. [[Steven Stone]], former Champion of the [[Hoenn]] region, will also appear here, offering his {{p|Beldum}} in exchange for a {{p|Forretress}}.
In [[Generation IV]], the museum is open for business, but the major exhibitions are elsewhere, so entry is free. There is only one floor in this generation. There is a scientist in the museum who will revive a player's Fossils, much like the scientist at the [[Cinnabar Lab]] in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}}, {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}. This is due to the fact that Fossils can be found under rocks using {{m|Rock Smash}}, unlike in [[Generation II]], where players were required to transfer Fossil Pokémon from the [[Generation I]] games using the [[Time Capsule]]. [[Steven Stone]], former {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Hoenn]] region, will also appear here after the player has received a Hoenn [[first partner Pokémon]] from him at the [[Silph Co.]], inspecting a meteorite exhibit.


===Exhibits===
===Exhibits===
[[Image:Spr 3f 141 f.png|thumb|left|Kabutops Fossil]]
The Pewter Museum of Science hosts a wide array of different exhibits and attractions. The first floor contains Fossil exhibits, including [[Fossil]]s of {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}}, the rare, prehistoric Pokémon. The second floor has a space exhibit featuring a model of a {{wp|Space Shuttle}}, and a rock, most likely a [[Moon Stone]], that fell onto [[Mt. Moon]] in the form of a meteorite. In Generation VII, a model replica of an Aerodactyl is present next to its fossil, now stored in a glass case.

In the Generation I games and their Generation III remakes, an old man on the second floor of the museum states: "''July 20, 1969! Humankind first set foot on the moon that day. I bought a color TV just so I could watch that news.''" July 20, 1969 was indeed the date that humans first landed on Earth's Moon in the [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|real world]] with the {{wp|Apollo 11}} flight. In Generation VII, he also talks about humankind's plans to set foot on {{wp|Mars}}.

===Enigma Stone event===
In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, if the event item, [[Enigma Stone]], is taken to the Pewter Museum of Science, traveling Pokémon Champion Steven Stone will have a researcher from the museum examine the stone. The researcher then discovers that it is really the [[Soul Dew]], an item said to be the crystallized souls of Latias and Latios. After this brief encounter, depending on the game version, one of the twin dragons will appear outside of the Museum, giving the player an opportunity to capture it. If the player does not engage in a battle with the Latios or Latias, it will remain there until the player has done so.

==In the anime==
[[File:Pewter Museum of Science anime.png|thumb|250px|Pewter Museum of Science in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Main series===
In ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', [[Seymour]] mentioned he's a researcher from the Pewter Museum, although this isn't mentioned in the English [[dub]].
 
The Museum itself appeared in ''[[JN038|Restore and Renew!]]''. {{Ash}}, [[Goh]], and [[Chloe]] originally visited the museum to see the recently revived {{pkmn2|giant}} {{p|Shieldon}}, but as the exhibit was closed for the day, they instead decided to dig up [[Fossil]]s at the local digging site. After hours of digging, Goh managed to find an [[Old Amber]], which was placed into a revival machine.
 
{{TRT}}, wanting to steal the revived Pokémon for themselves, accelerated the revival process while no one was looking, causing the machine to be destroyed as the revived {{p|Aerodactyl}} emerged from it prematurely. Goh chased the Aerodactyl into the museum exhibit and battled it with his {{TP|Goh|Golurk}} to get it under control, while Ash battled Team Rocket. In the end, Ash defeated Team Rocket and Goh managed to calm down and {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} the {{TP|Goh|Aerodactyl}}.
 
The Pewter Museum of Science is run by its overly enthusiastic [[Curator]]. The facility features a large biodome that houses many revived Fossil Pokémon, a fossil restoration machine, and an outdoor excavation site where visitors are allowed to try uncovering Fossils for themselves.

In ''[[PS023|Make Way For Magmar!]]'', the museum was burned down by two wild {{p|Magmar}}. While traveling with {{adv|Giovanni}}, {{adv|Red}} came across the burning museum, and used his {{p|Sandshrew}}'s {{m|Sand Attack}} to immobilize the Magmar. Once Red had left after receiving an [[Old Amber]] as a gift, Giovanni killed the {{pkmn|category|Spitfire Pokémon}} with his {{p|Cloyster}} when they regained consciousness.
 
===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
In ''[[PS077|Striking Golduck]]'', during the invasion of the armies of the [[Elite Four]], [[Brock]] had one of his {{TP|Brock|Geodude}} protect a {{p|Kabuto}} kept at the rebuilt museum. After the ordeal, Brock took Kabuto under his ownership and later evolved it into a {{p|Kabutops}}.

===In the manga===
[[File:Pewter Museum - Pokémon Power.png|thumb|250px|Explanation about the Pewter Museum<br>(''{{OBP|Pokémon Power|magazine}}'' magazine)]]
In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, [[Brock]] works as a security guard at the museum. It was there that he somehow managed to revive and acquire a {{p|Kabuto}} that later evolved into {{p|Kabutops}}. Later, however, the museum is burned down by two {{p|Magmar}}. {{Special|Red}} used Sand, a {{p|Sandshrew}} he caught throughout his voyages with Giovanni, to annoy the Magmar. Giovanni later finished them off with his {{p|Cloyster}} when the Magmar regained consciousness.
===''Pokémon Power''===
In ''{{OBP|Pokémon Power|magazine}}'' (issue 1, page 3), it is said that the fossil exhibit has recently opened and that it contains fossils discovered in the caves beneath [[Mt. Moon]].


===In the anime===
The curator of the museum is named Professor Phineas Fogg. His name appears to be based on {{wp|Phileas Fogg}}, the protagonist of the 1872 {{wp|Jules Verne}} novel ''{{wp|Around the World in Eighty Days}}''.
In the anime, [[Seymour]] is a researcher from the museum, but this isn't mentioned in the dub.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* In the Generation I games, the plaque accompanying the space shuttle model reads "{{wp|Space Shuttle Columbia}}"; however, in the Generation III remakes the plaque simply reads "Space Shuttle". This is probably due to the fact that on February 1, 2003, the real Space Shuttle Columbia {{wp|Space Shuttle Columbia disaster|disintegrated upon re-entry}} during its 28th mission, killing all seven crew members.
* In the Generation I games, the plaque accompanying the space shuttle model reads "{{wp|Space Shuttle Columbia}}"; however, in the [[remake]]s, the plaque simply reads "Space Shuttle". This is probably due to the fact that on February 1, 2003, the real Space Shuttle Columbia {{wp|Space Shuttle Columbia disaster|disintegrated upon re-entry}} during its 28th mission, killing all seven crew members. The reference to Space Shuttle Columbia was kept in the Japanese version of the Generation III games, but was removed in Generation VII.
* The {{p|Kabutops}} and {{p|Aerodactyl}} Fossil sprites are in the same pose as their species sprite in {{game|Red and Green|s}} and {{game|Red and Blue|s}}. This, however, is not true for {{game|Yellow}}, or {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Yellow used the Fossil sprites from Red and Blue which did not match the species' poses in Yellow, while LeafGreen and FireRed Fossil sprites had the same poses as the species did in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.
* In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], if the player brings a Pokémon with an evolutionary family member that evolves by [[Moon Stone]] near the Moon Stone on 2F, it will stop following the player and stare at it. Similarly, if the player brings a Kabutops near the Kabutops fossil, it will stop walking and stare at the fossil.
* In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the [[Monstrous Tablecloth]] is [[List of cross-generational references|described]] to have been designed by the Pewter Museum of Science.
