The '''Kanto''' region (pronounced /ˈkæn.toʊ/) (Japanese: '''カントー地方''' ''Kantō-chihō'') is a large area located east of [[Johto]], north-east of [[Hoenn]], and south of [[Sinnoh]]. It is the first region to be introduced, explored in the [[Generation I]] games and in the [[Generation III]] games [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions]]. Kanto is also accessible in the [[Generation II]] games {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and their [[Generation IV]] [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|remakes]] after the quest in Johto is completed. | The '''Kanto''' region (pronounced /ˈkæn.toʊ/) (Japanese: '''カントー地方''' ''Kantō-chihō'') is a large area located east of [[Johto]], north-east of [[Hoenn]], and south of [[Sinnoh]].

All cities in Kanto are named after colors([[Viridian City]], [[Lavender Town]], [[Indigo Plateau]], etc.), with the exception of [[Pallet Town]], which is also a reference to color. [[Professor Oak]] is the resident [[Pokémon professor]] and gives [[Pokémon Trainer]]s a choice between {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}} as their [[starter Pokémon]], though in Yellow the only choice is a [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Pikachu]] that he recently caught, although he did have an {{p|Eevee}}. In the games, the player begins his or her journey in Pallet Town and ends it at the Indigo Plateau. | All cities in Kanto are named after colors ([[Viridian City]], [[Lavender Town]], [[Indigo Plateau]], etc.), with the exception of [[Pallet Town]], which is also a reference to color.

It is based on and named after the real {{wp|Kantō region}} (関東, meaning "east of the barrier") in Japan. Unlike almost every other region, which are specific to their own generations, Kanto has been explorable in all prior generations of Pokémon games. However, it is not the primary region in the Generation II and IV games it appears in, in which players explore the neighboring Johto region before exploring Kanto. | It is based on and named after the real {{wp|Kantō region}} (関東, meaning "east of the barrier") in Japan.
