'''Viridian Forest''' (Japanese: '''トキワの{{tt|森|もり}}''' ''Tokiwa Forest'') is a [[forest]] which lies between [[Viridian City]] and [[Pewter City]] in the middle of {{rt|2|Kanto}} with both the north and south entrances of Viridian Forest open to the route. The deep and sprawling forest is said to be a natural maze as many people get lost inside. The trees in the forest are so thick that little light gets in, and because of this the forest is full of {{t|Bug}}- and {{type|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that attract {{tc|Bug Catcher}}s and other Trainers. | |||
'''Viridian Forest''' (Japanese: ''' | |||
In [[Generation II]], Viridian Forest no longer exists as a standalone area and has been replaced with a maze of standard trees, containing items and [[Berry]] trees, which is now a part of Route 2. The maze forms roughly the same design as before and the items are placed similarly to those located in Generations I, III, and VII. However, in the [[Generation IV]] remakes, the forest is re-expanded into the state of an actual dungeon, with five Trainers added, and with Pokémon similar to those of Pokémon Yellow. | |||
Viridian Forest | ==Geography== | ||
[[File:FL Viridian Forest.png|thumb|200px|[[Location preview|Preview]] of Viridian Forest in FireRed and LeafGreen]] | |||
Viridian Forest is a deep and sprawling woodland expanding across {{rt|2|Kanto}} reaching to [[Pewter City]] in the north and to [[Viridian City]] in the south, giving the forest its name. The trees in this area have grown so dense that light has trouble getting through, and because of this the forest seems dark and gloomy. The path across to each terminus winds its way around the dense layers of trees, creating a giant labyrinth many liken to a natural maze, as many people get lost inside. The entrance to the forest seems to be light and airy: the trees are not as thick and sunlight is able to get in fine. The trees stand tall and the grass appears to be long and unmaintained, while trees in the distance appear to be shadowed. | |||
== Items == | Because of its dark and shady environment, Viridian Forest hosts a large array of different {{type|Bug}} Pokémon. They are not particularly powerful, but they will cause [[status condition]]s such as paralysis and poison. It is advised from sign posts and even from other Trainers that Trainers should buy status condition healing items such as [[Antidote]] and [[Paralyze Heal]] before entering the forest. Pokémon such as {{p|Caterpie}}, {{p|Weedle}}, {{p|Metapod}}, and {{p|Kakuna}} inhabit trees and [[tall grass]], allowing themselves to stay hidden from predators. Viridian Forest is also one of the locations where Trainers can seek wild {{p|Pikachu}} as well as under-leveled {{p|Pidgeotto}}, making the forest a very exclusive place to find Pokémon. {{tc|Bug Catcher}}s, who own common {{type|Bug}} Pokémon such as Caterpie and Weedle, come here in groups from Viridian and Pewter to battle and train. | ||

Viridian Forest appears in [[Pokémon Channel]]. It can be visited by traveling on the bus once the Viridian Pass has been obtained from [[Shop 'N Squirtle]]. A campfire is held every non-rainy night. After {{p|Jirachi}} arrives with the projector, the [[Pichu Brothers]] episode ''[[Pichu Bros. in Party Panic]]'' can be watched in the stars on clear nights. It is also possible to [[Pokémon constellation|stargaze]] on clear nights. | |||
===Hey You, Pikachu!=== | |||
{{ | In [[Hey You, Pikachu!]], the {{OBP|player|Hey You, Pikachu!}} is able to go to the Viridian Forest, as well as the Entrance to Viridian Forest, and the Viridian Forest Edge. These are among various other places where the player may interact with Pikachu and other Pokémon. | ||

Viridian Forest | ===Main series=== | ||
====[[Original series]]==== | |||
[[File:Viridian Forest anime.png|thumb|250px|Viridian Forest in the {{pkmn|anime}}]] | |||
Viridian Forest was first shown at the end of ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]''. While traveling through the forest, {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} encountered a {{p|Caterpie}}, and Ash decided to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at it to try and {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. | |||
In ''[[EP003|Ash Catches a Pokémon]]'', Ash was revealed to have caught Caterpie as his first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. He then caught his second Pokémon, {{AP|Pidgeotto}}, the following day after a brief {{pkmn|battle}} with {{AP|Pikachu}}. At the end of the episode, after defeating {{TRT}} in a battle, Caterpie evolved into {{p|Metapod}}. | |||
The forest was also the setting of the [[EP004|following episode]]. While traveling through the forest, Ash spotted a {{p|Weedle}} and decided to catch it. He used Pidgeotto against it, but another {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Samurai]] arrived on scene and challenged Ash to a battle. Meanwhile, the Weedle escaped and Samurai rebuked Ash for it. The two then engaged themselves in a Pokémon battle, which got stuck for hours as their Metapod were unable to do anything but use {{m|Harden}}. All of a sudden, a swarm of {{p|Beedrill}} arrived and carried Ash's Metapod away. Samurai took Ash, Misty and their other Pokémon to a safe place, but not before running into group of {{p|Kakuna}} which promptly evolved and attacked them. The next day, Ash went and saved his Metapod from under the very same tree, having noticed him there the day before. Due Team Rocket's loud entrance, the Beedrill woke up and started chasing Ash. He apologized to Metapod for leaving him in trouble like that, after which he saved his Trainer from a Beedrill's {{m|Twineedle}} attack. Afterwards, he quickly evolved into a {{AP|Butterfree}} and saved Ash, Misty, and the samurai by putting the Beedrill asleep with {{m|Sleep Powder}}. At the end of the episode, Ash and Misty left Viridian Forest. | |||
Ash and {{ashfr}} revisited Viridian Forest in ''[[EP081|Pallet Party Panic]]''. As the group went through the forest, they were attacked by a flock of {{p|Spearow}}. The flock's leader was a {{AP|Fearow}}, which apparently [[Evolution|evolved]] from the Spearow that Ash hit with a rock on [[EP001|the first day of his journey]]. Ash climbed a tree to escape and found Team Rocket with a flock of {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Pidgeotto}} who were in a turf war with the flock of Spearow. After sending Team Rocket falling from tree as a bait for the Spearow, Ash sent out his own Pidgeotto to tell the other bird Pokémon that it was safe to leave. The Fearow then came back, however, and started attacking bird Pokémon. Ash's Pidgeotto tried to fight the Fearow, but was badly hurt. Instead of giving up, however, it then evolved into a {{AP|Pidgeot}}. Pidgeot and Pikachu then teamed up to defeat the Fearow and its minions. Ash also tried to catch the Fearow but failed, forcing them just to chase it away. Ash decided to {{pkmn2|released|leave}} Pidgeot in the forest to look after the Pidgey and Pidgeotto. | |||
====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''==== | |||
Ash revisited Viridian Forest alone in ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]''. Soon after entering the forest, he was attacked by Team Rocket, who snatched his Pikachu. As Ash had left all of his other Pokémon at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]], he was unable to fight back. However, he suddenly received unexpected help from his Pidgeot, who freed Pikachu and allowed him to send Team Rocket blasting off. Ash then invited Pidgeot to come with him again, which it agreed to. | |||

Viridian Forest appeared in ''[[PG01|The Adventure]]'', where {{ga|Red}} was seen encountering a {{p|Pikachu}}. After sending out his {{p|Bulbasaur}}, he caught it with a {{i|Poké Ball}}. Afterwards, Red used [[Red's Pikachu|his Pikachu]] to battle a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Caterpie}} as {{p|Zapdos}} flew by. | |||

It is said that once every ten years, a child is born in Viridian Forest, possessing mysterious powers. [[Lance]] and {{adv|Yellow}} both share these powers, being able to heal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} using physical touch, as well as having the ability to read the minds of Pokémon. In addition, Yellow can also move inanimate objects, namely [[Poké Ball]]s, by thought, as well as raise her Pokémon's [[level]]s using the power of Viridian Forest, although this power seems involuntary and temporary. | |||
Years before the events of the {{pkmn|manga}}, {{adv|Giovanni}} {{pkmn2|caught}} his [[List of characters' first Pokémon|first Pokémon]], a {{p|Weedle}}, in Viridian Forest. It later evolved into a {{TP|Giovanni|Beedrill}}, which is one of his few non-{{type|Ground}} Pokémon, and the one of those that he uses the most often. | |||
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}==== | |||
Viridian Forest debuted in ''[[PS003|The Secret of Kangaskhan]]'', where it was visited by {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}}. Blue attempted to catch a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Kangaskhan}}, but Red stopped him upon realizing that Kangaskhan's baby had been {{status|poisoned}}. After healing the baby with an [[Antidote]], Red let the now-calmed Kangaskhan go, much to Blue's irritation. | |||
In ''[[PS036|Drat That Dratini!]]'', Red returned to the forest, saving young Yellow from a {{p|Dratini}} and helping her catch her first Pokémon, a [[Ratty|Rattata]]. | |||
In ''[[PS038|Long Live the Nidoqueen?!]]'', Giovanni revealed that [[Team Rocket]] had been transporting the Pokémon they had captured, bio-engineered, and trained to Viridian Forest, where they would awaken their primal instincts and form an unstoppable Pokémon army. | |||
===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}==== | |||
Viridian Forest appeared again in ''[[PS043|Sea Sea Seadra]]'', where Yellow met {{adv|Bill}} there after taking [[Pika]] under her care following Red's disappearance. In ''[[PS044|Do Wrong, Dewgong!]]'', they were attacked by [[Lorelei]], who had come to capture Pikachu to make the [[Elite Four]]'s victory over Red complete. However, despite being faced with overwhelming odds, Yellow, Bill, and Pika eventually managed to escape with their lives. | |||
==In | ===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}==== | ||
In ''[[PS111|Tyranitar War]]'', Yellow was revealed to have caught her own {{p|Pikachu}}, [[nickname]]d [[Chuchu]], after finding her injured in Viridian Forest. | |||

Viridian Forest appeared in ''[[PM002|Big Battle in the Viridian Forest!!]]''. In an effort to catch some Pokémon, {{PPM|Red}} ventured into the forest, although his {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} was not into battling and resorted to digging a pitfall trap instead. This caused many wild Pokémon to start mocking them, including a {{p|Mewtwo}}. Red tried to have Clefairy attack Mewtwo, but he instead chose to attack [[List of disputed and unidentified Pokémon#Pokémon Pocket Monsters|a small, weak Pokémon]], which Red subsequently caught. While the other wild Pokémon chased Clefairy out of annoyance, Red kept throwing Poké Balls at Mewtwo, only for them to do nothing due to Mewtwo being at full health. Mewtwo then proceeded to kick Clefairy off a cliff, defeating him and forcing Red to take him to a [[Pokémon Center]]. | |||

Pokémon world locations |
Viridian Forest (Japanese: トキワの森 Tokiwa Forest) is a forest which lies between Viridian City and Pewter City in the middle of Route 2 with both the north and south entrances of Viridian Forest open to the route. The deep and sprawling forest is said to be a natural maze as many people get lost inside. The trees in the forest are so thick that little light gets in, and because of this the forest is full of Bug- and Flying-type Pokémon that attract Bug Catchers and other Trainers.
In Generation II, Viridian Forest no longer exists as a standalone area and has been replaced with a maze of standard trees, containing items and Berry trees, which is now a part of Route 2. The maze forms roughly the same design as before and the items are placed similarly to those located in Generations I, III, and VII. However, in the Generation IV remakes, the forest is re-expanded into the state of an actual dungeon, with five Trainers added, and with Pokémon similar to those of Pokémon Yellow.
Geography
Viridian Forest is a deep and sprawling woodland expanding across Route 2 reaching to Pewter City in the north and to Viridian City in the south, giving the forest its name. The trees in this area have grown so dense that light has trouble getting through, and because of this the forest seems dark and gloomy. The path across to each terminus winds its way around the dense layers of trees, creating a giant labyrinth many liken to a natural maze, as many people get lost inside. The entrance to the forest seems to be light and airy: the trees are not as thick and sunlight is able to get in fine. The trees stand tall and the grass appears to be long and unmaintained, while trees in the distance appear to be shadowed.
Because of its dark and shady environment, Viridian Forest hosts a large array of different Bug-type Pokémon. They are not particularly powerful, but they will cause status conditions such as paralysis and poison. It is advised from sign posts and even from other Trainers that Trainers should buy status condition healing items such as Antidote and Paralyze Heal before entering the forest. Pokémon such as Caterpie, Weedle, Metapod, and Kakuna inhabit trees and tall grass, allowing themselves to stay hidden from predators. Viridian Forest is also one of the locations where Trainers can seek wild Pikachu as well as under-leveled Pidgeotto, making the forest a very exclusive place to find Pokémon. Bug Catchers, who own common Bug-type Pokémon such as Caterpie and Weedle, come here in groups from Viridian and Pewter to battle and train.

Pokémon Channel
- Main article: Viridian Forest (Channel)
Viridian Forest appears in Pokémon Channel. It can be visited by traveling on the bus once the Viridian Pass has been obtained from Shop 'N Squirtle. A campfire is held every non-rainy night. After Jirachi arrives with the projector, the Pichu Brothers episode Pichu Bros. in Party Panic can be watched in the stars on clear nights. It is also possible to stargaze on clear nights.
Hey You, Pikachu!
In Hey You, Pikachu!, the player is able to go to the Viridian Forest, as well as the Entrance to Viridian Forest, and the Viridian Forest Edge. These are among various other places where the player may interact with Pikachu and other Pokémon.
In the anime
Main series
Original series
Viridian Forest was first shown at the end of Pokémon Emergency!. While traveling through the forest, Ash and Misty encountered a Caterpie, and Ash decided to throw a Poké Ball at it to try and catch it.
In Ash Catches a Pokémon, Ash was revealed to have caught Caterpie as his first Pokémon. He then caught his second Pokémon, Pidgeotto, the following day after a brief battle with Pikachu. At the end of the episode, after defeating Team Rocket in a battle, Caterpie evolved into Metapod.
The forest was also the setting of the following episode. While traveling through the forest, Ash spotted a Weedle and decided to catch it. He used Pidgeotto against it, but another Trainer named Samurai arrived on scene and challenged Ash to a battle. Meanwhile, the Weedle escaped and Samurai rebuked Ash for it. The two then engaged themselves in a Pokémon battle, which got stuck for hours as their Metapod were unable to do anything but use Harden. All of a sudden, a swarm of Beedrill arrived and carried Ash's Metapod away. Samurai took Ash, Misty and their other Pokémon to a safe place, but not before running into group of Kakuna which promptly evolved and attacked them. The next day, Ash went and saved his Metapod from under the very same tree, having noticed him there the day before. Due Team Rocket's loud entrance, the Beedrill woke up and started chasing Ash. He apologized to Metapod for leaving him in trouble like that, after which he saved his Trainer from a Beedrill's Twineedle attack. Afterwards, he quickly evolved into a Butterfree and saved Ash, Misty, and the samurai by putting the Beedrill asleep with Sleep Powder. At the end of the episode, Ash and Misty left Viridian Forest.
Ash and his friends revisited Viridian Forest in Pallet Party Panic. As the group went through the forest, they were attacked by a flock of Spearow. The flock's leader was a Fearow, which apparently evolved from the Spearow that Ash hit with a rock on the first day of his journey. Ash climbed a tree to escape and found Team Rocket with a flock of Pidgey and Pidgeotto who were in a turf war with the flock of Spearow. After sending Team Rocket falling from tree as a bait for the Spearow, Ash sent out his own Pidgeotto to tell the other bird Pokémon that it was safe to leave. The Fearow then came back, however, and started attacking bird Pokémon. Ash's Pidgeotto tried to fight the Fearow, but was badly hurt. Instead of giving up, however, it then evolved into a Pidgeot. Pidgeot and Pikachu then teamed up to defeat the Fearow and its minions. Ash also tried to catch the Fearow but failed, forcing them just to chase it away. Ash decided to leave Pidgeot in the forest to look after the Pidgey and Pidgeotto.
Pokémon Journeys: The Series
Ash revisited Viridian Forest alone in The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!. Soon after entering the forest, he was attacked by Team Rocket, who snatched his Pikachu. As Ash had left all of his other Pokémon at Professor Oak's Laboratory, he was unable to fight back. However, he suddenly received unexpected help from his Pidgeot, who freed Pikachu and allowed him to send Team Rocket blasting off. Ash then invited Pidgeot to come with him again, which it agreed to.

In the manga
Pokémon Adventures
It is said that once every ten years, a child is born in Viridian Forest, possessing mysterious powers. Lance and Yellow both share these powers, being able to heal Pokémon using physical touch, as well as having the ability to read the minds of Pokémon. In addition, Yellow can also move inanimate objects, namely Poké Balls, by thought, as well as raise her Pokémon's levels using the power of Viridian Forest, although this power seems involuntary and temporary.
Years before the events of the manga, Giovanni caught his first Pokémon, a Weedle, in Viridian Forest. It later evolved into a Beedrill, which is one of his few non-Ground-type Pokémon, and the one of those that he uses the most often.
Red, Green & Blue arc
Viridian Forest debuted in The Secret of Kangaskhan, where it was visited by Red and Blue. Blue attempted to catch a wild Kangaskhan, but Red stopped him upon realizing that Kangaskhan's baby had been poisoned. After healing the baby with an Antidote, Red let the now-calmed Kangaskhan go, much to Blue's irritation.
In Drat That Dratini!, Red returned to the forest, saving young Yellow from a Dratini and helping her catch her first Pokémon, a Rattata.
In Long Live the Nidoqueen?!, Giovanni revealed that Team Rocket had been transporting the Pokémon they had captured, bio-engineered, and trained to Viridian Forest, where they would awaken their primal instincts and form an unstoppable Pokémon army.
Yellow arc
Viridian Forest appeared again in Sea Sea Seadra, where Yellow met Bill there after taking Pika under her care following Red's disappearance. In Do Wrong, Dewgong!, they were attacked by Lorelei, who had come to capture Pikachu to make the Elite Four's victory over Red complete. However, despite being faced with overwhelming odds, Yellow, Bill, and Pika eventually managed to escape with their lives.
Gold, Silver & Crystal arc
In Tyranitar War, Yellow was revealed to have caught her own Pikachu, nicknamed Chuchu, after finding her injured in Viridian Forest.
Pokémon Pocket Monsters
Viridian Forest appeared in Big Battle in the Viridian Forest!!. In an effort to catch some Pokémon, Red ventured into the forest, although his Clefairy was not into battling and resorted to digging a pitfall trap instead. This caused many wild Pokémon to start mocking them, including a Mewtwo. Red tried to have Clefairy attack Mewtwo, but he instead chose to attack a small, weak Pokémon, which Red subsequently caught. While the other wild Pokémon chased Clefairy out of annoyance, Red kept throwing Poké Balls at Mewtwo, only for them to do nothing due to Mewtwo being at full health. Mewtwo then proceeded to kick Clefairy off a cliff, defeating him and forcing Red to take him to a Pokémon Center.
Pokémon Zensho
Viridian Forest appeared in Pewter City. While traversing through it on his way to Pewter City, Satoshi befriended a Pikachu, which agreed to join him on his journey.
Trivia
- In Yellow, the sole Lass found here has her sprite based over the grass, instead of among it. She can't move because she doesn't have a range at which she will walk up to the player, so she can only be battled by talking to her.[1]
- In Yellow, wild Pidgeotto can be found in the forest, most likely as a reference to Ash's Pidgeotto, which was caught here in the anime. However, they are level 9; normally, Pidgey evolves at level 18.
- In Generation I core series games, Viridian Forest and Safari Zone are the only areas with tall grass that is not always arranged in 2×2 tile patches.
- They are also the only areas where it is not possible to remove tall grass by using Cut. However, tall grass can be removed normally from these areas in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
- Despite the forest returning as a standalone area in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the background music is a remix of Viridian Forest (Japanese: トキワのもり) from Generation II, used on Route 2, with Route 2 in HeartGold and SoulSilver given Route 3 (Japanese: 3ばんどうろ) as the background music, which is also used for most other routes in Kanto on both Generation II and HeartGold and SoulSilver. Incidentally, Generation II's version of Viridian Forest, used on Route 2, was in itself a remix of Viridian Forest (Japanese: トキワの森) from Generation I.
- The internal layout of Santalune Forest in Pokémon X and Y is nearly identical to that of Viridian Forest.
- In addition, every Pokémon found in Viridian Forest in Pokémon Red and Green and the international version of Pokémon Red and Blue can also be found in Santalune Forest.
- In Generation I, this area is affected by the 2×2 block encounter glitch.
- In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Abner is the only Bug Catcher in the core series games to use a non-Bug-type Pokémon outside of a battle facility.
