Places of interest
Celadon department store
The Celadon department store is the largest Pokémart in Kanto. Because it is larger, it has a large variety of items that you normally wouldn't find anywhere else. These include various Technical Machines, temporary stat-boosting items (the X-stat series: X Accuracy, X Attack, X Defend, X Speed, X Special, Guard Spec. and Dire Hit), and stat-increasing vitamins. One can also buy a Poké Doll, which can be used to distract enemy Pokémon, and a selection of evolutionary stones (Fire Stone, Leaf Stone, Thunder Stone, and Water Stone). However, the evolutionary stones cannot be bought in Pokémon Gold and Silver and Pokémon Crystal.
There is a vending machine on the roof; it sells water, soda and lemonade. All three drinks function much like Potions. In Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, the player must present a bottle of water to convince a guard to allow him/her into Saffron City. In addition, a girl on the roof will give the player Technical Machines in exchange for drinks.
Celadon Mansion
Celadon Mansion is a large apartment building in the north side of the city. On the first floor of the Mansion, in all versions of the games, lives its owner, an old woman, always surrounded by several of her Pokemon. She plays an important role in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen: she gives the player Tea, a key item that must be given to any one of the thirsty Saffron City guards to be let past and into the city.
Game Freak, one of the companies responsible for the game, chose to place themselves in the game here. After the player has completed their Pokédex (obtained all 150 Pokémon), the Game Freak designer will give the player a diploma as a reward for finishing the game. In Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow, you can obtain an Eevee in the small apartment on the top floor.
The diploma in Pokémon Red and Blue is presented in unaltered form below as it appears in the game:
''Game Designer:
Wow! Excellent!
You completed
your POKéDEX!
Congratulations!
...
''
·Diploma·
''Player ASH
Congrats! This
diploma certifies
that you have
completed your
POKéDEX
(End)''
However, contrary to popular belief, the conversation ends here. The game designer will not give the player any Pokémon or any gifts and will only present this diploma.
There is a small apartment on the roof In Pokémon Red and Blue and Yellow, which contains the only Eevee available in the game. In Pokémon Gold and Silver, this is replaced by the TM03 Curse.
Pokémon Gym
The leader of the Gym here is Erika. She trains grass type Pokémon. In the anime, she also sells perfume from her gym. In the Pokémon Red and Blue games, the trees surrounding Erika must be cut with a Pokémon who has the Cut Hidden Machine in order to battle the gym leader. Members like Beauty Julia, Picnicker Tanya, Beauty Lori, Cooltrainer Mary and Twins Jo and Zoe work at the gym.
Celadon diner
A person at the diner, in the southeast corner of town, will give the player a Coin Case, which is necessary to play at the Celadon Game Corner.
Celadon Game Corner
The Celadon Game Corner is one of the major places in the first Pokémon games. Here, you can play certain casino games to win coins by using coins from the Coin Case obtained in the diner. You can then use the coins to buy various prizes, such as a Technical Machine or a rare Pokémon. This is the only place in the game you can get Porygon.
Below the Game Corner is the hideout for Team Rocket, which you can enter by pushing a switch underneath a poster. In the hideout, you have to defeat the members of Team Rocket and the head of the organization, Giovanni. This hideout does not exist in Gold/Silver.
Celadon Hotel ( In the Pokémon Red and Blue versions, there is a hotel in the southeastern corner of the city. There isn't really a purpose to it, but it is notable for having an invisible PC, as if the building were otherwise a Pokémon Center. This is because the building was made out of the Pokémon Center template but was then made larger and the text was changed for the people inside. The invisible PC glitch has been deleted from Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, however, the hotel looks different from a Pokémon Center this time around.
Demographics
In Pokémon Gold and Silver, the city had a total population of 42 [[Citing sources citation needed]]. This makes it the second largest city in Kanto, after Saffron City. Saffron and Celadon form the second most populated metropolitan area in the Pokémon World (the most populated is Lilycove City).[[Citing sources citation needed]]
Celadon City (Anime)
Celadon appears in "Pokemon Scent-Ision". It's home to perfume shops and perfume companies--including Erika's own Pokemon gym. Anyone that insults perfume or anyone trying to steal stuff in front of Erika is forbidden from the Pokemon gym.
