Cinnabar Island (Japanese: グレンじま Guren Shima, also Guren Island) is a large island located off the southern coast of the Kanto region, south of Pallet Town. It is home to a large volcano. Blaine is the resident Gym Leader, specializing in Fire-type Pokémon. Cinnabar is a kind of red mineral, which gave the color its name.

In the Games

The Generation I games reveal Cinnabar Island to be a technological mecca. The journals scattered about the abandoned Pokémon Mansion suggest that Mewtwo was cloned here. The scientists at the Pokémon Lab have the ability to resurrect Pokémon from their fossils.

By the Generation II games, the large volcano has erupted, destroying everything except the Pokémon Center. After the eruption, the Gym was relocated to the Seafoam Islands.

There are no land paths to the island. Instead Route 20 in the east and Route 21 in the north are both waterways through the ocean.
