Red & Blue Pewter City

Brock's Rock-type Gym tests new trainers for the Boulder Badge here, while the Museum of Science holds the Old Amber that revives Aerodactyl.

Pewter City is in Kanto, with Route 3 to the east and Route 2 to the south. In the story it comes after Viridian Forest and continues through its entrance to Pewter Gym.

A boy on the east road walks you back to the Pewter Gym until its leader is beaten, so Route 3 stays closed until you hold the badge.
  1. Enter Pewter City from Route 2 and follow the main road north; the Pewter Gym door faces the street on the west side of town, below the museum.
  2. Farther east along that same street, the Poke Mart is the first shop that stocks Potion, Escape Rope and Awakening.
  3. A cuttable tree east of the museum seals the path to its back entrance, so this side of town waits for CutMoveCutNormalClassPhysicalPower50Accuracy95%PP30Cuts using claws, scythes, etc. and the Cascade Badge.

Pewter City Guide

  • Not by walking. City streets never spawn an encounter. Where a town touches water, though, Surfing or fishing turns up Pokemon, like off the Vermilion docks or along the Cinnabar shore. The list on this page shows what each city's water holds.

  • No. These games have no rematch system at all, so once you beat a Leader or a trainer that fight is finished for good. There's no farming the same opponents for cash or experience. Wild Pokemon and the Elite Four, which you can re-challenge, are your only repeatable battles.
