'''Cinnabar Island''' (referred to in Japanese as both '''グレンじま''' ''Guren Island'' and '''グレンタウン''' ''Guren Town'') is a large island located off the southern coast of the [[Kanto]] region, south of [[Pallet Town]]. It is home to a large volcano. [[Blaine]] was once the resident [[Gym Leader]] specializing in {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but as of Generation IV, Cinnabar Island no longer has a Gym. {{wp|Cinnabar}} is a kind of red mineral, associated with hot springs and volcanoes. The island is connected to the mainland by two water routes: {{rt|20|Kanto}} in the east and {{rt|21|Kanto}} in the north, leading to [[Fuchsia City]] and Pallet Town, respectively. | '''Cinnabar Island''' (referred to in Japanese as both '''グレンじま''' ''Guren Island'' and '''グレンタウン''' ''Guren Town'') is a large island located off the southern coast of the [[Kanto]] region, south of [[Pallet Town]].

The journals scattered about the abandoned {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} reveal that {{p|Mewtwo}} was created here. The scientists at the [[Pokémon Lab]] have the ability to resurrect Pokémon from their [[Fossil]]s. Two years after the events of [[Generation]]s {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}, as seen in Generations {{Gen|II}} and {{Gen|IV}}, a volcano erupted on the island, destroying everything. The only building present is a [[Pokémon Center]], with the Cinnabar Gym having been relocated to the [[Seafoam Islands]]. | ||
