Geographically, Vermilion City appears to be based on {{wp|Chiba (city)|Chiba}}, the capital city of {{wp|Chiba Prefecture}}. However, its design, especially as it appears in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', seems to be mostly based on {{wp|Yokohama}}, the capital city of {{wp|Kanagawa Prefecture}}. Additionally, during the announcement for the 2023 [[Pokémon World Championships]], [[The Pokémon Company]] used a trailer with footage of Vermilion City taken from the [[Generation I]] games before announcing that the event would be held in Yokohama.<ref> | Geographically, Vermilion City appears to be based on {{wp|Chiba (city)|Chiba}}, the capital city of {{wp|Chiba Prefecture}}.
