'''Celadon City''' (Japanese: '''タマムシシティ''' ''Tamamushi City'') is located in central [[Kanto]]. It is the most populous city in Kanto and the eighth most populous in the [[Pokémon world]], surpassing even [[Saffron City]] in the east. The city has two entrances, one from the east via {{rt|7|Kanto}}, and one from the west via {{rt|16|Kanto}}. Celadon is the main place to spend money in Kanto, through the [[Celadon Department Store]] and the [[Celadon Game Corner]]. Celadon City is the home of the [[Celadon Condominiums]] where residents of the city live and the Celadon Hotel where visitors can rest. Celadon is also home to [[Erika]], the city's [[Gym Leader]] and [[Eusine]], the hunter that pursues {{p|Suicune}}.

{{main|Celadon Department Store}}
Celadon's department store is the largest building in the city, as well as the largest shop in [[Kanto]]. It is located in the northwest corner of the city. The store has two sliding door entrances, and is six stories high, including a roof level. In front of it lies a decorative fountain. Here, a receptionist welcomes customers and directs them to a board that describes the store layout. The second floor contains Top-Grade [[item]]s for Trainers. On the third floor, a man will give away {{TM|18|Counter}} in [[Generation I]], while in [[Generation III]], he becomes a [[Move Tutor]] who will teach the move to a capable Pokémon. The fourth floor contains gift people can buy for others. On the fifth floor there is a pharmacy selling Pokémon [[Vitamin]]s. And finally, on the Rooftop Square, there are some vending machines and a picnic table. A thirsty Trainer will give [[TM]]s in exchange for one of the drinks. In Generation I, the Trainer trades {{TM|13|Ice Beam}} for Fresh Water, {{TM|48|Rock Slide}} for Soda Pop, and {{TM|49|Tri Attack}} for Lemonade. In Generation III, the Trainer trades {{TM|16|Light Screen}} for Fresh Water, {{TM|20|Safeguard}} for Soda Pop, and {{TM|33|Reflect}} for Lemonade.

Next to the city's [[Pokémon Center]] is the Celadon Condominiums (known as '''Celadon Mansion''' up to [[Generation IV]]), where staff members of [[Game Freak]] rent a room from an old lady. It is here that players of both the [[Generation I]] games and their {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Generation III remakes|s}} can find an {{p|Eevee}}. This is the home of the [[Game Freak]] development studio, where the lead developer will give the player a [[diploma]] that signifies that they have completed the [[National Pokédex]]. In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} it has been largely renovated, with a brand new elevator system. In floor 3, the member of [[Game Freak]] standing in front of the globe gives the player a [[GB Sounds]].

Celadon Condominiums play a more vital role in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. The player must enter the building, where, on the first floor, he/she will encounter an old woman. The old woman will give the player {{DL|Drink|Tea}}, which he/she must use to enter Saffron City. Also, if the player is pursuing the [[Fame Checker]] sidequest, the second floor proves useful as well, providing information about [[Erika]]. Going into the Condominiums from the back not only leads the player to Eevee, but to the Know-It-All as well; this [[non-player character|NPC]] provides the player with standard information concerning [[status condition|status changes]] if the player reads the blackboard.

In [[Generation II]], instead of finding an {{p|Eevee}}, a man will give {{TM|03|Curse}} away to people. However, in [[Generation IV]] he now gives away the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Spell Tag}}.

{{main|Rocket Hideout}}
The Rocket Hideout is a four-floored underground complex beneath the Rocket Game Corner. It is a secret base built used by [[Team Rocket]] to facilitate and administer their operations. The Rocket Hideout is accessed by pressing a switch behind a poster in the [[Celadon Game Corner|Game Corner]] in Celadon City. A {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} is guarding the poster in question when the player first approaches it. After being defeated, the Grunt retreats into the base, leaving the poster un-guarded, and enabling the player to approach. Once the player activates a switch behind the poster, the stairs to the hideout will appear.

In the [[Generation]] {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}} games, the player must go into the underbelly of the Game Corner and defeat Team Rocket. The player's initial objective is to search for and obtain the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Lift Key}} in order to activate the lift leading to [[Giovanni]]. Once battled, Giovanni will flee, leaving the [[Silph Scope]] behind.

There are spinner tiles scattered around the place. This tile, when stepped upon, will whisk the player in the direction of the arrows depicted on it. The player will continue to travel in that direction until they hit a wall, land on another spinner (which may send them in a different direction) or land on a Stopper, a tile only used for that purpose.

[[File:Capsule Monsters Hotel.jpg|thumb|250px|left|[[Ken Sugimori]]'s [[Capsule Monsters|concept art]] for a hotel that bears resemblance to a [[Pokémon Center]], much like the Celadon Hotel.]]
The hotel, which is located in the southeastern part of the city, is a luxurious building, where the player is not able to rent a room due to the fact that there are no Pokémon allowed in the rooms. A couple is staying here at the moment, who are here on vacation and brought their little brother, who is a bit annoyed about it. In Generation I, there is an {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|invisible PC}} in the hotel. This fact is explained by the close resemblance between the hotel and a Pokémon Center. This was less a glitch, and more likely an oversight by the programmers, who may have forgotten to remove the code to activate the PC at that particular point, though the sprite of the PC itself is no longer there.
A luxurious hotel building can be found located in the southeastern part of the city. However, the player is not able to rent a room due to all the rooms being booked. A couple is staying here at the moment, who are here on vacation and brought their little brother, who is a bit annoyed about it. In {{2v2|Red|Blue}} (but not {{game|Yellow}}), there is an {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|invisible PC access|invisible PC}} in the hotel, perhaps explainable by the close resemblance between the hotel's layout and a Pokémon Center. This is less a glitch and more likely an oversight by the programmers, who may have copied and pasted a Pokémon Center's layout into the location and forgotten to remove the code to activate the PC at that particular point, though the PC itself is no longer there and the player can walk through the tile it would be located on.

The population of Celadon City is 82 (72, excluding the [[Team Rocket]] members in the [[Rocket Hideout]]), making it the largest city in [[Kanto]], beating even its skyscraper-clustered neighbor [[Saffron City]]. Celadon City's large population is partly due to the [[Celadon Department Store|Department store]] and the Team Rocket Hideout.

Celadon City has appeared in ''[[PS015|Wartortle Wars]]'', ''[[PS016|Tauros the Tyrant!]]'', ''[[PS017|The Jynx Jinx]]'', ''[[PS018|A Tale of Ninetales]]'', ''[[PS019|Blame It On Eevee]]'' and ''[[PS020|Meanwhile... Vileplume!]]'' in the {{adv|Red, Green & Blue chapter}} of ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]''.
Celadon City first appeared from ''[[PS015|Wartortle Wars]]'' to ''[[PS020|Meanwhile...Vileplume!]]''. After being fooled into buying a lot of expensive [[item]]s, all of which later turned out to be fake, from {{adv|Green}}, {{adv|Red}} encountered her again trying to sell her items to the people of Celadon. Upon noticing Red, she tried to get away with her [[Blasty|Wartortle]], but was stopped by Red and his [[Snor]]lax. When Red later went to spend night at the Celadon Hotel, he was enraged to find out that Green had secretly stolen his {{badge|Boulder|Boulder}} and {{badge|Cascade}}s.
 
After having an encounter with [[Team Rocket]] and {{adv|Mew}}, and supposedly recovering his Badges, Red encountered [[Erika]], the Celadon City Gym Leader. She offered to accept Red's challenge for a battle if he caught her an {{p|Eevee}}. With the help of {{adv|Bill}}, Red soon found an [[Vee|Eevee]], but it turned out to be a modified Eevee, capable of changing into [[Eeveelution|it evolutions]] and [[Devolution|back]]. After catching the Eevee, Red learned from Erika that the Eevee had been tested by Team Rocket, and she had wanted to test Red if he'd be a good ally in a fight against the evil organization.
 
In the {{chap|Yellow}}, {{adv|Yellow}} ended up in Celadon City after having escaped from [[Lorelei]], and was greeted by Erika and several of her students. {{tc|Super Nerd}} Miles, sent to capture [[Pika]] by [[Agatha]], then appeared, disguised as Red. He knocked Erika out, overwhelmed Yellow, and tried to escape with Pika, but was stopped by the four "Gym Leaders of Justice". Agatha's {{p|Gastly}} then tried to kill Miles, but was stopped by {{adv|Blue}}. Afterwards, Blue and Yellow left to train together at {{rt|9|Kanto}}.
 
Later in the chapter, Celadon City was attacked by an army of {{p|Shellder}} and {{p|Cloyster}}, sent by Lorelei. While protecting her Gym, Erika found out that the [[Elite Four]] were after her Badge. After Yellow defeated [[Lance]] at [[Cerise Island]], the Pokémon army lost its strength.


It first appeared when {{adv|Green}} was trying to sell more counterfeit [[Accessory|Accessories]] by the riverside, but tried to escape on her stolen [[Blasty|Wartortle]] but was stopped in her tracks by {{adv|Red}}'s {{p|Snorlax}}, but had managed to steal Red's [[Badge]]s. Which Red later found out at the Celadon Hotel next to the [[Pokémon Center]].
Like in the anime, Celadon City has a [[Celadon University|university]], at which Erika teaches in addition to her duties as Gym Leader.


On the outskirts of town, Red and {{adv|Blue}} crashed into each other, in the process switching Pokémon by accident. The Pokémon were reunited with their owners three days later after finding an [[Vee|Eevee]] that can change between each of its [[Eeveelution|evolutions]].

Like in the anime, Celadon City has a university at which Erika teaches in addition to her duties as Gym Leader.
===In the Pokémon Zensho manga===
Celadon City appeared in ''[[PZ05|Celadon City]]'', where {{zensho|Satoshi}} visited the city. Originally, he merely followed a pair of {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s from [[Lavender Town]] in order to get a [[Silph Scope]], but after snatching one from the [[Rocket Hideout]], he noticed the Gym and decided to challenge it as well. During the Gym battle with Erika, {{zensho|Satoshi's Charmeleon}} accidentally set Erika's kimono on fire, but saved her by {{m|slash}}ing off the burning part. Seeing how well Satoshi had raised his Pokémon, Erika gave him a {{badge|Rainbow}}.
