The player's house is the house in which the player lives in in their respective games; for example, [[Red]] or [[Leaf]] would live in this house in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]]. This house is situated in northwest [[Pallet Town]].
The '''player's house''' is the building in which the {{player}} lives in their respective games, located in their [[hometown]].


==Generation I and III==
The player usually first starts the game in their bedroom and ends up there after beating the [[Pokémon League]]. Most player character's bedrooms include a [[PC]], a bed, and often the current [[Nintendo]] console connected to a [[television]]. Also, in [[Generation I|Generations I]] and {{gen|III}}, there is a [[Potion]] already stored in the PC's item storage.
[[File:Player Bedroom FRLG.png|right|thumb|The player's bedroom in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]]
In [[Generation]]s {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}, the bedroom is where the player first starts their game. The room has a bed, a PC, and a television hooked up to a [[SNES]], though in Generation III, the SNES is replaced with a [[NES]], while a chest of drawers and a bookcase are added too.
However, the SNES or NES serve no real purpose other than for aesthetic reasons.  


[[File:Red House HGSS.png|left|thumb|{{ga|Red}}'s bedroom in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]]
The player's [[mother]] usually resides on the first floor and can be found there for the entire game.
In both generations, a [[Potion]] can be withdrawn from the PC at the start of the game, and the PC can also be used as an item storage system like any other PCs in the game. A sign can also be found on the wall by the stairs, which reminds new players how to open the bag.


The living room downstairs has a television and a dining table, where the [[Mom|player's mother]]
==Terminology==
can be found. After the player receives their [[Starter Pokémon|starter Pokémon]], the player's mother can fully restore the player's Pokémon, just like at a [[Pokémon Center]]. If the player is a male, a movie involving four boys walking on railroad tracks is shown, possibly a reference to the film {{wp|Stand by Me (film)|Stand by Me}}. Likewise, if the player is a female, a movie about a girl in pigtails walking down a yellow brick road is shown, possibly a reference to the film {{wp|The Wizard of Oz (1939 film)|The Wizard of Oz}}, albeit only in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]].
In the [[core series]] games, this house's [[signpost]] identifies it as "'''<player>'s house'''", where <player> is replaced by the player name. This is also referred to as "'''your house'''" in the manuals of {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}.


==Generation II and IV==
In {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the house in [[Pallet Town]] has a signpost identifying it as "'''{{ga|Red}}'s house'''".
The bedroom hasn't changed too much by [[Generation]]s {{Gen|II}} and {{Gen|IV}}. The only differences are that the green carpet has been replaced with a much bigger, red chequered carpet, the television has gone, a chest of drawers has been added, the PC has been replaced with a laptop, and that the SNES/NES has been replaced by a [[Nintendo Wii]], or a [[Nintendo 64]] in Generation II. Also, when you examine some of the items in the room, the text shows that they are collecting dust, implying that they haven't been used in a long time. The red carpet may be a reference to [[Red]].


On the ground floor, Red's mother can be found drinking a mug of tea at the table, and she tells the player how worried she is about [[Red]], but at the same time how proud she is of him. Differences in these generations include a new kitchen area with a refrigerator and sink, bookshelves, and a larger television.
==In the core series games==
===Kanto===
{{ga|Red}} lives in this house in all games featuring Kanto, except in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and {{LGPE}} In FireRed and LeafGreen, the female counterpart to Red—{{ga|Leaf}}—can live here as well. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, either {{ga|Chase}} or {{ga|Elaine}} can live here depending on the player's gender. It is located in [[Pallet Town]].


==Triva==
====Generations I, III, and VII====
* The video game console in the bedroom has changed with every generation it has appeared in - first it was the SNES, then the Nintendo 64, then the NES, and finally the Nintendo Wii.  
The player's house has two floors: the player's room at the top, and the living room at the bottom. There is a flight of stairs at the northeast corner of the house.
* At the {{player}}'s house in [[Generation III]], the TV makes two movie references that don't appear from any other TV in the games:
 
** If the player chooses to start with the {{ga|Red|male character}}, when the TV at home is inspected, it says, "''There's a movie on TV. Four boys are walking on railroad tracks. ...I'd better go, too.''" This is most likely a reference to the classic coming-of-age movie, ''{{wp|Stand By Me (film)|Stand by Me}}'' (1986). Paralleling the player leaving home and striking out on their own, the movie is about four boys who leave home to go on an adventure.
The player's room has a [[PC]], a bed, and a [[Television|TV]] with a video game console hooked up to it. In the [[Generation III]] games, a sign can also be found on the wall by the stairs to the living room, informing the player that pressing the L or R button will bring up the Help feature. In the [[Generation VII]] games, there is a {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Eevee}} plush depending on the version being played ({{LGPE|Let's Go, Pikachu!, or Let's Go, Eevee!}}, respectively), and the player can also interact with a globe located at the southeast corner of the room.
** If the player chooses to start with the {{ga|Leaf|female character}}, the TV will say, "''There's a movie on TV. A girl in pigtails is walking down a yellow brick road. ...I'd better go, too.''" This is most likely a reference to the movie ''{{wp|The Wizard of Oz (1939 film)|The Wizard of Oz}}'' (1939) which depicts the fictional adventure of a young girl. Interestingly, the player's [[Mom|mother]] will remark that it means that all girls wish to go out on adventures someday, contradicting the point of the movie (in which the main character wished to return home).
 
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, {{ga|Red}}'s bedroom features an area rug around his bed that is red in color. {{ga|Blue}}'s bedroom features a similar area rug, which is instead green in color. This is likely an oversight from the Japanese release of this game, wherein Blue's name is Green.
In the [[Generation I]] and III games, a [[Potion]] can be withdrawn from the PC at the start of the game. In Generation VII, an e-mail from the player's friend and rival, {{ga|Trace}}, can be found that tells the player how to interact with people, how to run, how to access the X menu, and how to save the game. In all games, the PC can also be used as an item storage system like any other PC in the game, but it can't be used for some other features such as the [[Pokémon Storage System]].
** However, it could also reference {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|Pokémon LeafGreen}}.
 
The player's video game console depends on the game:
* Famicom (in the Japanese version of all Generation I games and their Generation III remakes, except for Pokémon Yellow)
* Super Famicom (in the Japanese version of {{game|Yellow}})
* [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] (in the international versions of all Generation I games)
* NES (in the international versions of the Generation III games)
* [[Nintendo Switch]] with a single Joy-Con (in the Generation VII remakes, two Joy-Con if the player is playing in Co-op mode)
 
The video game console uses the same sprite in all Generation I games (though it is identified by the game text), whereas the Generation III remakes have different sprites for the Famicom (in the Japanese games) and the NES (in the international games).
 
The living room downstairs has a TV and a dining table, where the {{ka|Mom|player's mother}} can be found. After the player receives their [[first partner Pokémon]], their mother can fully restore the player's Pokémon, just like at a [[Pokémon Center]]. The Generation III and VII games include a small kitchen-like area at the northeast corner of the living room.
 
The movie or show on TV depends on the player's gender and the game language. This is shown in the game text when the player interacts with the TV by pressing A. In Generation I, interacting with the TV from either the left or right side will show the message, "''Oops, wrong side.''" In the Generation III remakes, the TV is located too close to the wall, therefore it's not possible to interact with it from the sides.
 
:''For the list of television quotes, see [[Television#Kanto and Johto]]''
 
====Generations II and IV====
In the living room, {{ga|Red}}'s {{ka|mom}} is sitting at the table and (in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}) drinking tea. If the player talks to her, she will mention that she worries about Red, but at the same time she's proud of him. Interacting with the TV will show a message indicating that it is showing different programs than are shown in Johto.
 
In [[Generation II]], the living room has gained a mirror compared to [[Generation I]]. Red's bedroom is essentially the same as in Generation I, although a chest of drawers and a bookcase have been added, while the {{nw|Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES}} has been replaced by a {{nw|Nintendo 64}}.
 
In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the kitchen area has gained a refrigerator and the TV is larger compared to {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}. The differences to Red's bedroom are as follows:
* the green carpet has been replaced with a much bigger, red checkered carpet;
* the [[PC]] has been replaced with a laptop;
* the {{nw|Nintendo Entertainment System|NES}} has been replaced by a {{nw|Wii}}.
 
In both Generations II and IV, interacting with the PC will show the message, "''It looks like it hasn’t been used in a long time...''"

===Johto===
The player, {{ga|Ethan}}, {{ga|Kris}}, or {{ga|Lyra}}, lives in this house. It is located in [[New Bark Town]].
 
In {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the bedroom has a TV, a [[Pokégear#Radio|radio]] tuned to [[Pokégear#Generation II|channel 4.5]] and a PC which can be used to access item and mail storage. The PC in this room has an additional function, allowing the player to customize the bedroom with a variety of [[decoration]]s, such as [[Pokémon doll]]s, as well as beds, game systems, plants, and carpets. The [[Town Map]] hanging on the wall can also be replaced with one of several posters of different Pokémon.
 
Most decorations are received as gifts when using [[Mystery Gift]] with another player, although {{jo|Mom}} may also purchase some if the player has allowed her to save their money. A gold trophy and silver trophy can also be obtained from the [[Normal Box]] and [[Gorgeous Box]] items held by prize Pokémon awarded in {{g|Stadium}}. The position of most decorations within the bedroom are fixed and cannot be altered; dolls, however, can be placed on either the left or right side of the table. It is also possible to put away all decorations, including the map and the bed. The bedroom and its decorations can be viewed in 3D in Pokémon Stadium 2 if a compatible game is inserted into the [[Transfer Pak]].
 
In {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the room instead resembles the Sinnoh bedroom rather than the original Johto one. The PC can only be used to access mail storage, and the console in the room is a Wii. Unlike the original games, this bedroom cannot be customized. The three trophy decorations from {{game|Platinum}}, earned upon achieving a win streak of 20, 50 and 100 in the Single Battle mode of the {{si|Battle Tower}}, can also be obtained in these games. Once awarded, they are automatically placed on the rug in the bedroom and cannot be moved or removed.

===Hoenn===
{{incomplete|section|needs=why are the TVs missing in the ORAS images? <br> needs snorlax and lapras plushes for ORAS}}
Depending on the player's gender, the player lives in one of two houses in [[Littleroot Town]]. {{ga|Brendan|The male player character}} lives in one in the northwest of the town, while {{ga|May|the female player character}} lives in one in the northeast of Littleroot. Both houses, including the bedrooms, are essentially mirrored versions of each other.
 
The first floor features a dining area, a television, and a kitchen. Both bedrooms feature a TV, a [[Nintendo GameCube]] (the in-game text says that a GBA is connected to the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]]){{sup/3|RSE}}/a [[Wii U]] with a GamePad{{sup/6|ORAS}}, a town map, a notebook with basic control instructions, and a clock on the wall, which serves as the only indicator of time in the game. In Ruby and Sapphire, both bedrooms have a purple GameCube, but in Emerald, {{ga|Brendan}}'s GameCube is purple, while {{ga|May}}'s is orange.
 
In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, there is also a PC in the room, which can be used to access item and mail storage and the decoration feature. This latter feature is more basic than the system present in [[Generation II]]; Pokémon dolls and cushions may be placed on the rug only, and up to 16 decorations may be placed. The dolls, cushions, and other decorations can be placed in a [[Secret Base]], where most of the customization options have shifted. In Ruby and Sapphire, both bedrooms have red rugs, but in Emerald, {{ga|Brendan}}'s room has a blue rug, while {{ga|May}}'s has a pink rug. A Pokémon doll will appear in the rival's bedroom at a certain point in the game.
 
The Hoenn-based games are some of the few games that do not begin with the player in their bedroom, instead beginning in [[Inside of Truck|the back of a moving truck]], having moved from the [[region]] of [[Johto]] to [[Hoenn]]. At the start of the game, there are two {{p|Machoke}}{{sup/3|RS}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}/{{p|Vigoroth}}{{sup/3|E}} helping with the move. Due to an oversight in the Japanese version of Pokémon Emerald, both Vigoroth have Machoke's cry; this was fixed in the international versions of this game.

===Sinnoh===
The player, {{ga|Lucas}} or {{ga|Dawn}}, lives in this house. It is located in [[Twinleaf Town]].
 
The ground floor has a kitchen, a dining area, and a living area.
 
The bedroom in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} is the most basic of all the games. There is a TV, a Wii, and a PC that simply gives basic tips on how to play the game. A sign next to the stairs informs the player how to open the menu. In {{2v2|Brilliant Diamond|Shining Pearl}}, the Wii is replaced by a Nintendo Switch, and the [[Azure Flute]] is right next to it if the [[save data bonus]] from obtaining {{p|Arceus}} in {{g|Legends: Arceus}} has been achieved.

===Unova===
====Nuvema Town====
[[File:Player Bedroom mess BW.png|thumb|200px|The player's bedroom in {{game|Black and White|s}}, following a Pokémon battle]]
The player, {{ga|Hilbert}} or {{ga|Hilda}}, lives in this house. It is located in [[Nuvema Town]].
 
The first floor has a living area and a kitchen.
 
The second floor, the bedroom, contains a [[Wii]] and a PC that does not serve any real function.
 
In {{2v2|Black|White}}, the first two [[Pokémon battle]]s of the game take place within the bedroom, causing the room to fall into a state of disarray. The player's mother will later happily tidy the room, and it will be restored to its original condition after she gives the player [[Running Shoes]] on {{rt|2|Unova}}. The bedroom cannot be custom decorated, however, numerous decorations can still be obtained. When the [[Unova Pokédex|Unova]] and [[National Pokédex]]es are completed, their respective [[diploma]]s will automatically be delivered to the house and placed on a table in the upper part of the bedroom. Three trophies can also be obtained by achieving high win streaks on the [[Battle Subway]], and will automatically be placed on the table in the lower part of the room. A trophy will be awarded upon achieving a win streak of 49+ battles on the Super Single, Super Double, and Super Multi Lines respectively.
 
In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, {{ga|Hilbert}}/{{ga|Hilda}}'s mother mistakes {{ga|Nate}}/{{ga|Rosa}} for her own child, before realizing that they were actually the player. She continues to heal the player's Pokémon as in Black and White, commenting on how she may want to go on a journey to find her child; however, she worries that they would return while she was gone. If [[Memory Link]] has been established, she will refer to them by name, and the trophies and diplomas they earned will appear in their room. The PC in Hilbert/Hilda's room looks as if it has not been used in a long time.

====Aspertia City====
The player, {{ga|Nate}} or {{ga|Rosa}}, lives in this house. It is located in [[Aspertia City]].
 
The main area of the house has a kitchen, a small table for two, and a couch facing a TV with a Wii.
 
Unlike in previous games, the bedroom is not upstairs in a separate room, but simply partitioned from the main living area, as the player's house is only single-story. There is a table and a dresser in the top part of the room where the diplomas and trophies will be displayed if they have been awarded.

===Kalos===
The player, {{ga|Calem}} or {{ga|Serena}}, lives in this house. It is located in [[Vaniville Town]].
 
The first floor of the house has a small kitchen and a living area, featuring a TV above a fireplace playing a documentary about the [[Grace (Kalos)|player's mom]]. A {{p|Fletchling}} roams the living area. Unlike all previous games, the first floor of the house has a room for the [[Mother|player's mother]].
 
The basic layout of the player's bedroom on the second floor is similar whether the player is a boy or a girl, with the main difference being the overall color scheme and design choice. Both rooms have a TV, a [[Wii U]] with a GamePad controller (male players will have the black premium version while females will have the white basic version), and a PC, though like previous games the PC lacks any real function aside from giving the player basic adventure tips. A wall mirror hangs in the middle of the back wall, reflecting the player's image when walked up to. The mirror serves no purpose after the very beginning of the game when the player changes out of their pajamas. On the right side of the room past the mirror, there is a long counter between rows of cabinets where the player's [[diploma]]s are put. This bedroom is noticeably much larger that in previous games, most likely in part to the larger house size.
 
The player's mother's {{p|Rhyhorn}} sleeps in the house's front yard.

===Alola===
In [[Alola]], the player, {{ga|Elio}} or {{ga|Selene}}, lives in a house technically located on {{rt|1|Alola}}, but in the Hau'oli Outskirts, which is described as an area between [[Hau'oli City]] and Route 1.
 
The main room has a small kitchen on the top left of the room. There is also a table with [[Chople Berry|Chople Berries]] and take-out packages on it. A {{p|Meowth}} also lives with the player. To the right, there is a door that leads to a balcony.
 
The player's mother's room has a bed for Meowth which is 'hardly used because Meowth just sleeps in your mom's bed instead'. A human bed is found at the top left. The room also has a dresser, a cabinet, moving boxes, and a clothing rack, all of which cannot be interacted with.
 
The player's room has a similar layout regardless of the character's gender, although the color schemes are different. On the bottom left, there is a {{p|Ditto}} pillow and a [[Poké Toy]], which are "covered in Meowth's claw marks". Like X and Y, there's a TV with a [[Wii U]] in the top left corner. On the nightstand is a Pikachu doll. Looking at the globe on the player's table makes the player think "Kanto and Alola seem awfully far apart" and the opened book lists adventure rules. On the right side of the room is a bed and some moving boxes. After the player obtains the Zygarde Cube, a cell can be found in the player's room. In {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, a few things are replaced. The Ditto doll is replaced by a {{p|Snorlax}} cushion, the Wii U is replaced by a [[Nintendo Switch]], and the Pikachu doll is replaced with an autograph of a [[Lt. Surge|Kanto Gym Leader]]. The Pikachu doll is now located on the bed.

===Galar===
In [[Galar]], the player, {{ga|Victor}} or {{ga|Gloria}}, lives in a house in [[Postwick]], right next to the path to the [[Slumbering Weald]].
 
The house consists of four rooms, all arranged horizontally on a single floor. To the far left is a family room with a TV for [[Mum (Galar)|Mum]]'s comedy-dramas, a fireplace, and some bookshelves. The family's [[Munchlax]] can be found in this room, along with its bed. To the right of that is an entryway room with some umbrellas and jackets, as well as a mirror. To the right of the entryway is the kitchen, where Mum can be found, and the kitchen then leads into the player's room.
 
The player's room has a desk, a bed, and a TV with a Switch console hooked up to it. The Nintendo Switch is the original model released at the launch of the console, and will use the same colored Joy-Cons based on the ones the player is currently using. If the player is not using Joy-Cons, the in-game appearance will be the default Gray/Gray. The design of the room changes based on the player's [[gender]]. On the right wall is a Pikachu tail poster and an Eevee poster if the player is male, and flipped (Eevee Tail and Pikachu poster) if female. At the very beginning of the game, the player's [[Bag]] is also at the foot of the bed, with their hat over one of the bedposts.

===Hisui===
In [[Hisui]], the player, {{ga|Rei}} or {{ga|Akari}}, is given a house next to the [[Galaxy Hall]] in [[Jubilife Village]] once they are accepted into the [[Galaxy Team|Galaxy Team Survey Corps]]. The small house is divided into an entrance area, an outer room and an inner bedroom. The entrance area contains a big chest for accessing the player's item storage. The outer room consists of an central fireplace, some tables, a big water jar, and a dresser for storing extra clothes. The bedroom has a small mirror where the player can change their [[List of clothing in Pokémon Legends: Arceus|clothing]], a bed where the player can rest to change the [[time]] of day, and a decorative [[Pokéshi Doll]].
 
The day/night cycle will not advance in Jubilife Village unless the player rests. After unlocking the [[Eternal Battle Reverie]], it can also be accessed by resting in the bed. The house is referred to as ''Your quarters'' on the in-game map.
 
The {{p|Rotom}} appliances purchased will automatically be sent to the player's quarters and placed in a predesignated spot: The Mechanical Tub (Washing Machine) and Mechanical Circular Saw (Lawn Mover) will be in the entryway across the item chest, the Mechanical Box (Microwave) will be on the outer dresser, the Mechanical Cabinet (Refrigerator) will be outside the bedroom door, and the Mechanical Pinwheel (Electric Fan) will be on the bedroom windowsill. Interacting with any of these appliances will transform Rotom into one of its other {{form|Rotom|forms}}, and interacting with the same appliance again will revert Rotom into its base form.

===Paldea===
{{incomplete|section|needs=Blueberry Dorm<br>player's room looks the same regardless of gender, images should be removed to avoid confusion}}
In [[Paldea]], the player, {{ga|Florian}} or {{ga|Juliana}}, lives in this house. It is located in [[Cabo Poco]].
 
It consists of three rooms, two situated on the lower level and one on the upper level. On the left side of the house are the kitchen and main room, with the kitchen at the farthest end. The middle room comprises most of the first floor just to the left of the entrance, and consists of a table and three couches situated parallel to a TV on the wall. The family's {{p|Skwovet}} resides in this level. Directly in front of the entrance is a stairway that leads to the upper level and the player's room, and among it are various artworks adorning the walls. To the right of the entrance is an unopenable door leading to the player's mother's room.
 
The player's room has a desk, a bed, and a TV with an OLED model Switch console hooked up to it. The Nintendo Switch will use the same colored Joy-Cons based on the ones the player is currently using. If the player is not using Joy-Cons (such as a Pro Controller), the in-game appearance will be the default White set. To the right of the TV is a map of Paldea and a cupboard adorned with stickers of {{p|Drifloon}}, {{p|Hatenna}}, and {{p|Applin}}. On the wall next to the bed is a green poster with a [[Poké Ball]]. On the lower left corner of the room is a mat with a giant Skwovet doll.
 
Additionally, the player also has a dorm room at [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}. This dorm room has a bed, a wardrobe, a study table, a kitchen area with a sink, counters and cabinets, and an unopenable door leading to a bathroom. The player will appear in the room upon completion of the main storyline.
 
If the player starts the [[Mochi Mayhem]] epilogue, the player's mom will no longer heal their Pokémon. She will instead say "Study hard and play hard, that's what I say! You should enjoy your days as a student." if the player interacts  with her.

*:''It's a microwave oven you bought from the Gingko Guild. But cooking is Beni's job.''
*:''It's a washing machine you bought from the Gingko Guild. But using it would waste water.''
*:''It's a refrigerator you bought from the Gingko Guild. What era did this even come from?''
*:''It's an electric fan you bought from the Gingko Guild. But this place isn't hot enough to need it.''
*:''It's a lawn mower you bought from the Gingko Guild. But there aren't exactly lawns to mow.''
*''[[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]'' is the only core series game to not feature a console in the player's room.
*The [[Wii]] has appeared in 5 consecutive titles, making it the most featured console in the player's room.
**In second is the [[Nintendo Switch]], with 4; however, it did not appear in ''Legends: Arceus''. While it does not appear throughout the story, there is an unused room with the Nintendo Switch present in it.

Latest revision as of 20:50, 4 September 2024

The player's house is the building in which the player lives in their respective games, located in their hometown.

The player usually first starts the game in their bedroom and ends up there after beating the Pokémon League. Most player character's bedrooms include a PC, a bed, and often the current Nintendo console connected to a television. Also, in Generations I and III, there is a Potion already stored in the PC's item storage.

The player's mother usually resides on the first floor and can be found there for the entire game.

Terminology

In the core series games, this house's signpost identifies it as "<player>'s house", where <player> is replaced by the player name. This is also referred to as "your house" in the manuals of Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow.

In Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, the house in Pallet Town has a signpost identifying it as "Red's house".

In the core series games

Kanto

Red lives in this house in all games featuring Kanto, except in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen and Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! In FireRed and LeafGreen, the female counterpart to Red—Leaf—can live here as well. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, either Chase or Elaine can live here depending on the player's gender. It is located in Pallet Town.

Generations I, III, and VII

The player's house has two floors: the player's room at the top, and the living room at the bottom. There is a flight of stairs at the northeast corner of the house.

The player's room has a PC, a bed, and a TV with a video game console hooked up to it. In the Generation III games, a sign can also be found on the wall by the stairs to the living room, informing the player that pressing the L or R button will bring up the Help feature. In the Generation VII games, there is a Pikachu or Eevee plush depending on the version being played (Let's Go, Pikachu!, or Let's Go, Eevee!, respectively), and the player can also interact with a globe located at the southeast corner of the room.

In the Generation I and III games, a Potion can be withdrawn from the PC at the start of the game. In Generation VII, an e-mail from the player's friend and rival, Trace, can be found that tells the player how to interact with people, how to run, how to access the X menu, and how to save the game. In all games, the PC can also be used as an item storage system like any other PC in the game, but it can't be used for some other features such as the Pokémon Storage System.

The player's video game console depends on the game:

  • Famicom (in the Japanese version of all Generation I games and their Generation III remakes, except for Pokémon Yellow)
  • Super Famicom (in the Japanese version of Pokémon Yellow)
  • SNES (in the international versions of all Generation I games)
  • NES (in the international versions of the Generation III games)
  • Nintendo Switch with a single Joy-Con (in the Generation VII remakes, two Joy-Con if the player is playing in Co-op mode)

The video game console uses the same sprite in all Generation I games (though it is identified by the game text), whereas the Generation III remakes have different sprites for the Famicom (in the Japanese games) and the NES (in the international games).

The living room downstairs has a TV and a dining table, where the player's mother can be found. After the player receives their first partner Pokémon, their mother can fully restore the player's Pokémon, just like at a Pokémon Center. The Generation III and VII games include a small kitchen-like area at the northeast corner of the living room.

The movie or show on TV depends on the player's gender and the game language. This is shown in the game text when the player interacts with the TV by pressing A. In Generation I, interacting with the TV from either the left or right side will show the message, "Oops, wrong side." In the Generation III remakes, the TV is located too close to the wall, therefore it's not possible to interact with it from the sides.

For the list of television quotes, see Television#Kanto and Johto

Generations II and IV

In the living room, Red's mom is sitting at the table and (in HeartGold and SoulSilver) drinking tea. If the player talks to her, she will mention that she worries about Red, but at the same time she's proud of him. Interacting with the TV will show a message indicating that it is showing different programs than are shown in Johto.

In Generation II, the living room has gained a mirror compared to Generation I. Red's bedroom is essentially the same as in Generation I, although a chest of drawers and a bookcase have been added, while the SNES has been replaced by a Nintendo 64.

In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the kitchen area has gained a refrigerator and the TV is larger compared to FireRed and LeafGreen. The differences to Red's bedroom are as follows:

  • the green carpet has been replaced with a much bigger, red checkered carpet;
  • the PC has been replaced with a laptop;
  • the NES has been replaced by a Wii.

In both Generations II and IV, interacting with the PC will show the message, "It looks like it hasn’t been used in a long time..."

Johto

The player, Ethan, Kris, or Lyra, lives in this house. It is located in New Bark Town.

In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the bedroom has a TV, a radio tuned to channel 4.5 and a PC which can be used to access item and mail storage. The PC in this room has an additional function, allowing the player to customize the bedroom with a variety of decorations, such as Pokémon dolls, as well as beds, game systems, plants, and carpets. The Town Map hanging on the wall can also be replaced with one of several posters of different Pokémon.

Most decorations are received as gifts when using Mystery Gift with another player, although Mom may also purchase some if the player has allowed her to save their money. A gold trophy and silver trophy can also be obtained from the Normal Box and Gorgeous Box items held by prize Pokémon awarded in Pokémon Stadium. The position of most decorations within the bedroom are fixed and cannot be altered; dolls, however, can be placed on either the left or right side of the table. It is also possible to put away all decorations, including the map and the bed. The bedroom and its decorations can be viewed in 3D in Pokémon Stadium 2 if a compatible game is inserted into the Transfer Pak.

In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the room instead resembles the Sinnoh bedroom rather than the original Johto one. The PC can only be used to access mail storage, and the console in the room is a Wii. Unlike the original games, this bedroom cannot be customized. The three trophy decorations from Pokémon Platinum, earned upon achieving a win streak of 20, 50 and 100 in the Single Battle mode of the Battle Tower, can also be obtained in these games. Once awarded, they are automatically placed on the rug in the bedroom and cannot be moved or removed.

Depending on the player's gender, the player lives in one of two houses in Littleroot Town. The male player character lives in one in the northwest of the town, while the female player character lives in one in the northeast of Littleroot. Both houses, including the bedrooms, are essentially mirrored versions of each other.

The first floor features a dining area, a television, and a kitchen. Both bedrooms feature a TV, a Nintendo GameCube (the in-game text says that a GBA is connected to the GameCube)RSE/a Wii U with a GamePadORAS, a town map, a notebook with basic control instructions, and a clock on the wall, which serves as the only indicator of time in the game. In Ruby and Sapphire, both bedrooms have a purple GameCube, but in Emerald, Brendan's GameCube is purple, while May's is orange.

In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, there is also a PC in the room, which can be used to access item and mail storage and the decoration feature. This latter feature is more basic than the system present in Generation II; Pokémon dolls and cushions may be placed on the rug only, and up to 16 decorations may be placed. The dolls, cushions, and other decorations can be placed in a Secret Base, where most of the customization options have shifted. In Ruby and Sapphire, both bedrooms have red rugs, but in Emerald, Brendan's room has a blue rug, while May's has a pink rug. A Pokémon doll will appear in the rival's bedroom at a certain point in the game.

The Hoenn-based games are some of the few games that do not begin with the player in their bedroom, instead beginning in the back of a moving truck, having moved from the region of Johto to Hoenn. At the start of the game, there are two MachokeRSORAS/VigorothE helping with the move. Due to an oversight in the Japanese version of Pokémon Emerald, both Vigoroth have Machoke's cry; this was fixed in the international versions of this game.

Sinnoh

The player, Lucas or Dawn, lives in this house. It is located in Twinleaf Town.

The ground floor has a kitchen, a dining area, and a living area.

The bedroom in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum is the most basic of all the games. There is a TV, a Wii, and a PC that simply gives basic tips on how to play the game. A sign next to the stairs informs the player how to open the menu. In Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the Wii is replaced by a Nintendo Switch, and the Azure Flute is right next to it if the save data bonus from obtaining Arceus in Pokémon Legends: Arceus has been achieved.

Unova

Nuvema Town

The player's bedroom in Pokémon Black and White, following a Pokémon battle

The player, Hilbert or Hilda, lives in this house. It is located in Nuvema Town.

The first floor has a living area and a kitchen.

The second floor, the bedroom, contains a Wii and a PC that does not serve any real function.

In Black and White, the first two Pokémon battles of the game take place within the bedroom, causing the room to fall into a state of disarray. The player's mother will later happily tidy the room, and it will be restored to its original condition after she gives the player Running Shoes on Route 2. The bedroom cannot be custom decorated, however, numerous decorations can still be obtained. When the Unova and National Pokédexes are completed, their respective diplomas will automatically be delivered to the house and placed on a table in the upper part of the bedroom. Three trophies can also be obtained by achieving high win streaks on the Battle Subway, and will automatically be placed on the table in the lower part of the room. A trophy will be awarded upon achieving a win streak of 49+ battles on the Super Single, Super Double, and Super Multi Lines respectively.

In Black 2 and White 2, Hilbert/Hilda's mother mistakes Nate/Rosa for her own child, before realizing that they were actually the player. She continues to heal the player's Pokémon as in Black and White, commenting on how she may want to go on a journey to find her child; however, she worries that they would return while she was gone. If Memory Link has been established, she will refer to them by name, and the trophies and diplomas they earned will appear in their room. The PC in Hilbert/Hilda's room looks as if it has not been used in a long time.

Aspertia City

The player, Nate or Rosa, lives in this house. It is located in Aspertia City.

The main area of the house has a kitchen, a small table for two, and a couch facing a TV with a Wii.

Unlike in previous games, the bedroom is not upstairs in a separate room, but simply partitioned from the main living area, as the player's house is only single-story. There is a table and a dresser in the top part of the room where the diplomas and trophies will be displayed if they have been awarded.

Kalos

The player, Calem or Serena, lives in this house. It is located in Vaniville Town.

The first floor of the house has a small kitchen and a living area, featuring a TV above a fireplace playing a documentary about the player's mom. A Fletchling roams the living area. Unlike all previous games, the first floor of the house has a room for the player's mother.

The basic layout of the player's bedroom on the second floor is similar whether the player is a boy or a girl, with the main difference being the overall color scheme and design choice. Both rooms have a TV, a Wii U with a GamePad controller (male players will have the black premium version while females will have the white basic version), and a PC, though like previous games the PC lacks any real function aside from giving the player basic adventure tips. A wall mirror hangs in the middle of the back wall, reflecting the player's image when walked up to. The mirror serves no purpose after the very beginning of the game when the player changes out of their pajamas. On the right side of the room past the mirror, there is a long counter between rows of cabinets where the player's diplomas are put. This bedroom is noticeably much larger that in previous games, most likely in part to the larger house size.

The player's mother's Rhyhorn sleeps in the house's front yard.

Alola

In Alola, the player, Elio or Selene, lives in a house technically located on Route 1, but in the Hau'oli Outskirts, which is described as an area between Hau'oli City and Route 1.

The main room has a small kitchen on the top left of the room. There is also a table with Chople Berries and take-out packages on it. A Meowth also lives with the player. To the right, there is a door that leads to a balcony.

The player's mother's room has a bed for Meowth which is 'hardly used because Meowth just sleeps in your mom's bed instead'. A human bed is found at the top left. The room also has a dresser, a cabinet, moving boxes, and a clothing rack, all of which cannot be interacted with.

The player's room has a similar layout regardless of the character's gender, although the color schemes are different. On the bottom left, there is a Ditto pillow and a Poké Toy, which are "covered in Meowth's claw marks". Like X and Y, there's a TV with a Wii U in the top left corner. On the nightstand is a Pikachu doll. Looking at the globe on the player's table makes the player think "Kanto and Alola seem awfully far apart" and the opened book lists adventure rules. On the right side of the room is a bed and some moving boxes. After the player obtains the Zygarde Cube, a cell can be found in the player's room. In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, a few things are replaced. The Ditto doll is replaced by a Snorlax cushion, the Wii U is replaced by a Nintendo Switch, and the Pikachu doll is replaced with an autograph of a Kanto Gym Leader. The Pikachu doll is now located on the bed.

Galar

In Galar, the player, Victor or Gloria, lives in a house in Postwick, right next to the path to the Slumbering Weald.

The house consists of four rooms, all arranged horizontally on a single floor. To the far left is a family room with a TV for Mum's comedy-dramas, a fireplace, and some bookshelves. The family's Munchlax can be found in this room, along with its bed. To the right of that is an entryway room with some umbrellas and jackets, as well as a mirror. To the right of the entryway is the kitchen, where Mum can be found, and the kitchen then leads into the player's room.

The player's room has a desk, a bed, and a TV with a Switch console hooked up to it. The Nintendo Switch is the original model released at the launch of the console, and will use the same colored Joy-Cons based on the ones the player is currently using. If the player is not using Joy-Cons, the in-game appearance will be the default Gray/Gray. The design of the room changes based on the player's gender. On the right wall is a Pikachu tail poster and an Eevee poster if the player is male, and flipped (Eevee Tail and Pikachu poster) if female. At the very beginning of the game, the player's Bag is also at the foot of the bed, with their hat over one of the bedposts.

Hisui

In Hisui, the player, Rei or Akari, is given a house next to the Galaxy Hall in Jubilife Village once they are accepted into the Galaxy Team Survey Corps. The small house is divided into an entrance area, an outer room and an inner bedroom. The entrance area contains a big chest for accessing the player's item storage. The outer room consists of an central fireplace, some tables, a big water jar, and a dresser for storing extra clothes. The bedroom has a small mirror where the player can change their clothing, a bed where the player can rest to change the time of day, and a decorative Pokéshi Doll.

The day/night cycle will not advance in Jubilife Village unless the player rests. After unlocking the Eternal Battle Reverie, it can also be accessed by resting in the bed. The house is referred to as Your quarters on the in-game map.

The Rotom appliances purchased will automatically be sent to the player's quarters and placed in a predesignated spot: The Mechanical Tub (Washing Machine) and Mechanical Circular Saw (Lawn Mover) will be in the entryway across the item chest, the Mechanical Box (Microwave) will be on the outer dresser, the Mechanical Cabinet (Refrigerator) will be outside the bedroom door, and the Mechanical Pinwheel (Electric Fan) will be on the bedroom windowsill. Interacting with any of these appliances will transform Rotom into one of its other forms, and interacting with the same appliance again will revert Rotom into its base form.

Paldea

050Diglett.png This section is incomplete.
Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it.
Reason: Blueberry Dorm
player's room looks the same regardless of gender, images should be removed to avoid confusion

In Paldea, the player, Florian or Juliana, lives in this house. It is located in Cabo Poco.

It consists of three rooms, two situated on the lower level and one on the upper level. On the left side of the house are the kitchen and main room, with the kitchen at the farthest end. The middle room comprises most of the first floor just to the left of the entrance, and consists of a table and three couches situated parallel to a TV on the wall. The family's Skwovet resides in this level. Directly in front of the entrance is a stairway that leads to the upper level and the player's room, and among it are various artworks adorning the walls. To the right of the entrance is an unopenable door leading to the player's mother's room.

The player's room has a desk, a bed, and a TV with an OLED model Switch console hooked up to it. The Nintendo Switch will use the same colored Joy-Cons based on the ones the player is currently using. If the player is not using Joy-Cons (such as a Pro Controller), the in-game appearance will be the default White set. To the right of the TV is a map of Paldea and a cupboard adorned with stickers of Drifloon, Hatenna, and Applin. On the wall next to the bed is a green poster with a Poké Ball. On the lower left corner of the room is a mat with a giant Skwovet doll.

Additionally, the player also has a dorm room at Naranja AcademyS/Uva AcademyV. This dorm room has a bed, a wardrobe, a study table, a kitchen area with a sink, counters and cabinets, and an unopenable door leading to a bathroom. The player will appear in the room upon completion of the main storyline.

If the player starts the Mochi Mayhem epilogue, the player's mom will no longer heal their Pokémon. She will instead say "Study hard and play hard, that's what I say! You should enjoy your days as a student." if the player interacts with her.

In the anime

Main series

Ash's house in the anime

The houses that Ash and his friends lived in prior to beginning their Pokémon journeys can be said to be equivalent to the player's houses.

Ash's house first appeared in Pokémon - I Choose You!. From this point on, after completing a regional journey, he would always return to his house to visit his mother Delia before heading off for a new adventure.

May's house was the equivalent of the Petalburg Gym.

Dawn's house first appeared in Following A Maiden's Voyage!. She went to her house along with Ash and Brock during the middle of their journey in Strategy Begins at Home!. The group stayed there for the duration of the Twinleaf Festival, which concluded in Challenging a Towering Figure!. After Ash finished the Lily of the Valley Conference, Dawn went back to her house sometime prior to Memories are Made of Bliss!.

Trivia

  • The player's house in Alola is the only one to be located on a route.
  • In Hisui, interacting with the Rotom appliances while the player has no Rotom (either in the party or box/pastures) will display the following text:
    It's a microwave oven you bought from the Gingko Guild. But cooking is Beni's job.
    It's a washing machine you bought from the Gingko Guild. But using it would waste water.
    It's a refrigerator you bought from the Gingko Guild. What era did this even come from?
    It's an electric fan you bought from the Gingko Guild. But this place isn't hot enough to need it.
    It's a lawn mower you bought from the Gingko Guild. But there aren't exactly lawns to mow.
  • Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the only core series game to not feature a console in the player's room.
  • The Wii has appeared in 5 consecutive titles, making it the most featured console in the player's room.
    • In second is the Nintendo Switch, with 4; however, it did not appear in Legends: Arceus. While it does not appear throughout the story, there is an unused room with the Nintendo Switch present in it.
