Saffron City is a city situated in central Kanto.

As a quadripoint between the contiguous routes of Cerulean City (north), Lavender Town (east), Vermilion City (south), and Celadon City (west), it is the centrimost city of the Kanto region, serving as a frequently used pedestrial passway to and from other cities within the region.

The area is made accessible by giving a Lemonade to a guard in any of the four convergent gatehouses after you have obtained the Soul Badge in Fuchsia Gym; thereafter, you will have access to all four gatehouses to access the city. Until you are allowed to use the gatehouses, the underpasses on the nearby routes must be used in order to bypass the city.

It is one of the most metropolitan cities in the Kanto region; in addition to Saffron Gym, several landmarks are located in this city, including Saffron Dojo, Silph Co.’s headquarters, and the interregional-train station.

Saffron Gym

Saffron Gym with directional annotations instructive to reaching Sabrina’s room.

In order to reach Sabrina’s chamber in the center of the gym, a circular sequence of warp-pads must be traveled through in order to reach her room; see the pictorial walkthrough to the right for an instructional illustration.

Upon defeating Sabrina, you will reap the Marsh Badge, allowing you to advance to Cinnabar Island for the next gym in Kanto’s successional line. Thereupon, TM29 (Psychic) will also be sold by the gym-greeter for 9,000 for one or 36,000 for a bundle of five. However, the first time you purchase the TM, it will be sold at half the true value, lowering the cost to 4,500.
