Cinnabar Island

Cinnabar Island

Cinnabar is a large island to the southwest of mainland Kanto, between Routes 20 and 21. The Cinnabar Lab, where researchers have developed a way to revive ancient Pokémon, stands to the west. A broken-down building known as Pokémon Mansion is located on the island's northwest side. The Cinnabar Gym can be found to the northeast, but is currently locked up tight.

Cinnabar Lab

Meeting Room

Time for a Trade

In the Meeting Room, two of the three people are looking to trade. The old man offers to trade his Electrode for a Raichu, and the woman offers her Tangela for a Venonat. Electrode can be evolved from Voltorb but are rare in the wild. Tangela only makes its home in one area and is difficult to find.

R-and-D Room

In the Research-and-Development Room, speak to the Super Nerd. This Move Tutor offers to teach Metronome to a compatible Pokémon. When used, Metronome executes a randomly selected move.

Testing Room

Time for a Trade

In the Testing Room, one of the Scientists is willing to trade his Seel for a Ponyta. As Seel would have been a common sight in the Seafoam Islands, it is likely that you have caught one already, potentially making this trade less useful than others.

Fossil Regeneration

The Scientist near the back wall runs the fossil regeneration procedure. Speak to him to hand over the Helix Fossil, Dome Fossil, or Old Amber. The procedure takes a moment to complete, so leave the room and return a short time later to receive the ancient Pokémon. The Helix Fossil and Dome Fossil become Omanyte and Kabuto, respectively; both are Rock/Water Pokémon that swam the primordial seas. The Old Amber becomes the Rock/Flying Aerodactyl, a terror of the prehistoric skies.

Pokémon Mansion

The Pokémon Mansion is the decrepit, burned-down former home of a famous Pokémon researcher. The building uses several hidden switches to lock and unlock doors, and Burglars prowl the ruins for valuable items. A series of journal entries can be found scattered around the mansion that describe the birth and escape of a genetically-engineered Pokémon.

Cinnabar Gym

Cinnabar Gym

CINNABAR ISLAND POKéMON GYM
LEADER: BLAINE
The Hot-Headed Quiz Master!

The Cinnabar Gym specializes in Fire-type Pokémon. Fire-type moves are super effective against Bug-, Grass-, Ice-, and Steel-type Pokémon, while Fire-type Pokémon are weak to Ground-, Rock-, and Water-type moves. When playing with fire there is always the chance of getting Burned, so be sure to bring some Burn Heals. The Gym Leader enjoys riddles and has equipped his Gym with machines that display a quiz when examined. When each question is answered correctly, the door to the next room unlocks. This allows challengers to reach the Gym Leader sooner, but gives up the rewards of defeating his Gym Trainers.

After the battle, Blaine awards you the Volcano Badge, which gives your Pokémon a slight Special Attack and Special Defense boost during battle and enables the use of Waterfall in the field. He also gives you TM38 (Fire Blast) as a prize.

Set Sail for the Sevii Islands!

When you leave the Gym, you find Bill waiting outside. A friend of his has invited him to visit One Island, part of an island chain far to the south of the Kanto mainland. He is on his way there now, and decides to invite you along, as well. Decline his offer at first and he will wait for you inside the Pokémon Center. His friend's ship has not yet arrived, so take a moment to prepare as PC services on these remote islands will be unavailable. Speak to him to board the ferry for the Sevii Islands!
