[edit] Gym leader
In Pokémon Red, Pokémon Blue, Pokémon Yellow, Gold, Silver, Pokémon FireRed and Pokémon LeafGreen, Vermilion City is home to the electric type-using gym leader Lt. Surge. To get to this point, the player must retrieve the Hidden Machine (HM) Cut.
[edit] S.S Anne
The S.S. Anne makes its appearance here in the Red, Blue/Green, Yellow, FireRed and LeafGreen versions. The S.S. Aqua travels to this city from Olivine City in Johto. In the Fire Red and Leaf Green versions, the Seagallop ships also depart from this port towards the Sevii Islands. The route which the ship takes is sometimes known as the Kanto-Johto Sea Route. East of the city is the Diglett's Cave.
In Red, Blue, and Yellow, as well as LeafGreen and FireRed, the player must retrieve the important HM, Cut, by receiving the S.S Anne pass from Pokémaniac Bill, board the S.S. Anne, and rub the captain's back, who has sea-sickness. He then gives you the HM. On your way, you encounter your rival. On the ship, there are a number of trainers who seek battle inside the cabins. The second type of Poké Ball, Great Ball, can also be found in the kitchen area in one of the bins in Red, Blue, and Yellow. In LeafGreen and FireRed, you simply find berries in the bins, although the Great Ball can still be found in this room.
[edit] Animé
Vermilion City makes an appearance in Episode #14, Electric Shock Showdown, in which Ash Ketchum fights against Lt. Surge. The following episode, Battle Aboard The S.S. Anne, Ash, Misty, and Brock board the S.S Anne.
[edit] Additional information
This city is also home of the Pokémon fan club, where the chairman gives you a Bike voucher in Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, and LeafGreen. In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, he simply gives you a rare candy. Also noted is that in FireRed and LeafGreen, a girl inside the Pokémon Center gives you a VS. Seeker. Vermilion also leads to Route 12, where there is a Snorlax in the way of the road.
In the Yellow version, which parallels the anime, Officer Jenny will give the player Squirtle after the Thunderbadge has been won.
If a player gets the cut HM from another trainer, the S.S Anne never takes off.If the player goes back and uses surf next to the ship, there is a truck.This started many fake rumors of how to get Mew.
