'''Viridian City''' (Japanese: ''' | |||
'''Viridian City''' (Japanese: '''トキワシティ''' ''Tokiwa City'') is a small city located in western [[Kanto]]. In the [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]] {{pkmn|games}}, [[Team Rocket]] leader [[Giovanni]] serves as [[Gym Leader|Leader]] of the {{t|Ground}}-specialist [[Viridian Gym]], but the [[Gym]] is locked until the {{player}} has gained the other seven [[Badge#Kanto|League Badges]]. {{ga|Blue}} is the Gym Leader in the [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] games and trains {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of various types. | |||
Three major paths lead from the city center. To the north is {{rt|2|Kanto}}, as well as [[Viridian Forest]], which lies in the middle of the route, leading to [[Pewter City]]. To the south is {{rt|1|Kanto}}, which leads to [[Pallet Town]]. To the west is {{rt|22|Kanto}}, leading to [[Indigo Plateau]] and the [[Pokémon League]]. | Three major paths lead from the city center.

In the Generation II games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the city is known as "the Gateway to Indigo Plateau". | |||

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the player will initially encounter only {{tc|Ace Trainer}} {{ga|Cal}}. When the player meets someone in the Pokéwalker and re-syncs it back to the player's game, the Trainer and their Pokémon will appear in the basement. Up to 10 additional Trainers may be encountered in this way. Like Generation II, these Trainers' teams will consist of whatever Pokémon were in their parties at the time of re-syncing with the Pokéwalker, including [[held item]]s, [[move]]s, [[level]]s, and stats. Unlike Generation II, if a Pokémon's level is above 50, its level is reduced to 50 like a battle under the [[Flat Battle]] rules. Players will earn no experience or money, but will receive 1 [[Battle Point|BP]] for each victory. | In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the player will initially encounter only {{tc|Ace Trainer}} {{ga|Cal}}.

In [[Generation I]], a {{DL|Revive|Revive}} can be found in the gym, while a {{DL|EV-enhancing item|Macho Brace}} replaces it in [[Generation III]]; it is the only gym to boast items. This is the only Gym to be based on 3 different types throughout the games and anime and the only one to ever have no type specialty. In all generations aside from [[Generation III]], at least one Trainer in the Viridian Gym owns a {{p|Rhydon}}, while in [[Generation III]], all of Giovanni's Pokémon know {{m|Earthquake}}. | In [[Generation I]], a {{DL|Revive|Revive}} can be found in the gym, while a {{DL|EV-enhancing item|Macho Brace}} replaces it in [[Generation III]]; it is the only gym to boast items.

The man in the area that requires {{m|Cut}} or {{m|Surf}} to access gives out the [[TM]] for {{m|Dream Eater}}: in [[Generation I|Generations I]] and {{gen|II}}, it is [[TM42]], while in [[Generation IV]], it is [[TM85]]. In [[Generation III]], he is instead a [[Move Tutor]] of Dream Eater. | |||
