Cinnabar Island

Cinnabar Island is an island located in the southwestern part of the Kanto region. It is home to the Pokémon Mansion; the Pokémon Lab; and the Cinnabar Gym, where you can defeat Gym Leader Blaine to receive the Volcano Badge, although, you won't be able to enter the Cinnabar Gym, until you get the Secret Key from Pokémon Mansion.

Pokémon Mansion

Get the Secret Key

Find the Secret Key to unlock the Cinnabar Gym door and fight Blaine for a shot at the Volcano Badge.

The Pokémon Mansion is a decrepit, burned-down mansion. It got its name because a famous Pokémon Researcher once lived there. Amongst the rubble and wreckage is information that the scientists who once worked there obtained a Mew and impregnated it with the genetically altered Mewtwo, who destroyed the Mansion in its escape.

To access the Cinnabar Gym, you have to enter the mansion and find the Secret Key to unlock the door of the Gym. The Pokémon Mansion has four different floors. Doors can be unlocked in the mansion by pressing switches hidden in Pokémon statues.

Cinnabar Gym

Cinnabar Gym

The Cinnabar Gym is the official gym of Cinnabar Island. It specializes on Fire-type Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Blaine. If you defeat him, you'll receive the Volcano Badge.

The Cinnabar Gym is a high-tech affair featuring a series of sealed doors. You must answer trivia questions about various Pokémon to unseal the doors, do this by interacting with the machines connected to the walls. However, when you fail to answer a trivia question correctly, a battle with either a Burglar or Super Nerd results, an alternative to unsealing the doors. The questions are:

• "Pokémon Quiz! Get it right and the door opens to the next room! Get it wrong and face a trainer! If you want to conserve your Pokémon for the Gym Leader... Then get it right! Here we go! Caterpie evolves into Metapod?"

Yes, Caterpie evolves into Metapod, then into Butterfree.

• "There are 9 certified Pokémon League Badges?"

No, there are only 8.

• "Poliwag evolves 3 times?"

No, he evolves only twice; first into Poliwhirl, then into Poliwrath.

• "Are thunder moves effective against ground element-type Pokémon?"

No, it's the other way around.

• "Pokémon of the same kind and level are not identical?"

Yes, they're not.

• "TM28 contains Tombstony?"

No, it contains Dig.

Even if you answer the question right, you still have the option to challenge the Trainer.

Warning!

If you have anything else to do before going to the gym, do it now, after you defeat Blaine, Bill meets you just outside and takes you away to the Sevii Islands; the PC system doesn't work there for the moment, so you won't be able to use other pokémon saved on Bill's PC or items saved on your PC. Also, you won't be able to use Fly to return (since it's so far away).
