A small, peaceful town. Home of Professor Oak's lab and the legendary trainer Red.
Lore
History & significance
Pallet Town's white-picket calm hides outsized importance — Professor Oak's lab here is the launching point for nearly every Kanto trainer of note, including Red, Blue, and Leaf. The town shares a coastline with Cinnabar Island to the south, and its quiet streets are referenced in trainer lore as the place where the modern Pokémon journey was born.
