Cherrygrove City is in Johto. In the story you arrive from Route 29 to the east and continue north to Route 30.

Cherrygrove is your first real taste of the rod. Tentacool and Krabby crowd the surface by default, but the Super Rod is the draw, landing Corsola by day and Staryu after dark at 30 percent each.
