'''Cinnabar Island''' (Japanese: '''グレン{{tt|島|じま}}''' ''Guren Island''; '''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 in the [[Johto]]-based games, Cinnabar Island no longer has a Gym.

==Terminology==
===English===
In English media, this place is usually called '''Cinnabar Island''', regardless of the Japanese dialogue calling it an "Island" or "Town". It is sometimes shortened to just '''Cinnabar'''. For instance:
* ''"I wasn't in the mood at '''Cinnabar''', but now I'm ready to battle you."'' ({{ga|Blue}}'s quote){{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}
* ''"We'll be watching over '''Cinnabar''', just waiting to see what will happen!"'' (Radio quote){{sup/4|HGSS}}
In the English manual of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, this is named '''Cinnabar Town''' on the page about the [[Gym Leader]]s.
The related adjective is '''Cinnabarian''', as seen when the "'''Cinnabarian''' Hamburger Steak" is mentioned in [[Pokémon X and Y]].
In an early anime summary from [[Pokémon.com]], Cinnabar Island was referred to as '''Glen Island''' in English, based on its Japanese name.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/19991012205011/http://pokemon.com/cartoons/lastten.html Pokémon World - Cartoons] (archive)</ref>
===Japanese===
In Japanese media, Cinnabar Island has two distinct Japanese names—being referred to as both "Island" and "Town". In particular, the area name (as stored on the list of locations in the game data) is the one that appears when the player enters the location and which appears on the Pokémon's [[summary]] or is mentioned by the [[Poké Seer]]{{sup/2|C}} if it was met in this location.
* '''{{j|グレン{{ruby|島|じま}}}}''' (''Guren Island'') is the area name{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}{{sup/7|PE}}, and it also appears on the [[Cinnabar Gym]] signpost{{sup/1|RGBY}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}{{sup/7|PE}}.
* '''{{j|グレンタウン}}''' (''Guren Town'') is the area name{{sup/4|HGSS}}, and it also appears on the island's signpost{{sup/1|RGBY}}{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}{{sup/7|PE}}, the [[Cinnabar Gym]] signpost{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}, the Cinnabar Gym relocation notice{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}, and the map guide about the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}.
In the [[Generation I]] games, it is referred to as simply '''{{j|グレン}}''' (''Guren'') on the [[Town Map]], just like other cities and towns.
