Pewter City is first visited in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]'' and ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'' in the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}. The citizens are business people that have tents in the streets where they sell principally fruits and vegetables which a roaming [[Pika|Pikachu]] tried to steal. After {{adv|Red}} caught it, the citizens of the city gave Red a big feast. They also enjoy to watch the battles of the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who challenge the [[Pewter Gym]]. The city has a [[Pokémon Center]], but during this time, it is closed due to vandalism, later revealed to be caused by the "bad" [[Gym Leader]]s in an effort to make [[Brock]] give up his [[badge|Gym badge]] for their plans.

* [[Goldenrod City]] and [[Rustboro City]] are very similar to Pewter City. Their geographic locations in their respective [[region]]s are remarkably similar, as well as being only accessible through a forest during the beginning of the game. Rustboro is, however, the most like Pewter in that both cities are the second city visited with a [[Gym]], but first to be beat by the {{player}}. Both Pewter and Rustboro's Gyms specialize in {{type2|Rock}} {{obp|Pokémon|species}}, and play a role in the player obtaining [[fossil]] Pokémon.
