In [[Pokémon Adventures]], the Power Plant is a building project that was never completed. The industrial waste from the construction site has affected the lives of many Pokémon living in the surrounding areas, including on {{rt|9|Kanto}}, where the waste has killed off most of the local plant life, sending many Pokémon wandering around in search for food.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], if a player currently in the Power Plant opens the [[Town Map]], pressing down will apparently do nothing at first, as the selection will go from Power Plant (the current place) to Power Plant again due to [[List of graphical quirks (Generation I)#Town Map selection oversight|an oversight]]. The player will need to press down twice to select the previous place, which is [[Indigo Plateau]]. Similarly, a player in the {{rt|1|Kanto}} will need to press up twice to go to the next place in the Town Map.
