 |  Pallet Town
A tiny town nestled in South Kanto, home to Professor Oak's Lab, as well as the homes of Red and Green. It is a very quiet place and quite out of the way so it rarely gets any visitors. There are enough shops and supplies to keep the town going, and the nearest City is only a short walk away, meaning that the population itself also very rarely leaves.

 | | An unassuming and very average looking house with a red front door. The house is two stories high, however the second story is built into the roof with only a single room and a small window peeking out at the streets below. This room belongs to Red, however he hasn't had much use for it since starting out on his journey.

| | Just as Red's House has a red front door this house has a green one - it appears both boys must have painted them this way when they were young. Green's house is built in a similar fashion to Red's, with his own room situated in the same place. Even though Green has now set out on his journey, his older sister Daisy and Grandfather still live here.

| | The centre of Pokémon Research in Kanto, it is odd to find it in such an unassuming place, however the Professor relocated here eight years ago to take care of his grandchildren. The lab is a large and impressive building right at the heart of Pallet Town. The staff is small but they have plenty of space inside the lab to work on whatever projects they need to.
