The Pokémon Mansion (Japanese: ポケモン屋敷(やしき) Pokémon Mansion), shortened to PKMN Mansion on the Generation I Town Map, is an abandonded mansion located on Cinnabar Island. It is the former home of a researcher of Pokémon, and is implied to be the place where Mewtwo was created.

In the games

In Generations I, III, and VII, the player has to enter the mansion and find the Secret Key at its basement to access the Cinnabar Island Gym. The abandoned building is full of Burglars and Scientists, looting whatever valuable they can find.

The Pokémon Mansion has four different floors. Doors can be unlocked in the mansion by pressing switches hidden in statues scattered around the building. In Generations I and III, there is a balcony on 3F with two possible points to jump down from, with the eastern one leading back to 2F and the western one leading to 1F and allowing the player to access B1F, while in Generation VII, the western balcony is the only possible way down, and it is utilized by climbing down a ladder instead of jumping. In Generation VII only, there are beds at the basement, which the player can rest in, fully healing their entire party. In Generations I and III, there is an exit at the southeast corner of 1F, which transports the player back to the front door of the mansion, while in Generation VII, it is replaced by a one-way warp panel that serves the same purpose.

Amongst the rubble and wreckage are journal entries written by the scientist who obtained a Mew and cloned it to create Mewtwo. In Generation VII, there are also multiple glass containers likely used during said cloning process at the basement, the largest one of which shows signs of having been beaten on over and over from the inside.

The Pokémon Mansion, along with most other buildings on Cinnabar Island, is destroyed in the eruption of the Cinnabar Island volcano prior to the events of Generations II and IV, and as such, it no longer exists.

A series of journal entries are scattered around the mansion. They appear to have been written by Mr. Fuji and detail the birth of Mewtwo.

Pokémon Origins

Red was seen visiting the Pokémon Mansion in File 3: Giovanni. The mansion used to be full of different kinds of Pokémon, but was now just an old, abandoned house. While exploring the mansion, Red found a journal describing the discovery of a new species of Pokémon.

The Pokémon Mansion was also referenced in File 4: Charizard, where Red recalled reading the entries in the journal, leading to him identifying the Pokémon Blue had recently fought against and lost to as Mewtwo, possibly created in the very same mansion Red visited and found the journal from.

In the manga

Pokémon Adventures

Red, Green & Blue arc

In Pokémon Adventures, instead of being burned-down and deserted, the Pokémon Mansion appears to be well-kept and habitable. It made a brief appearance in Holy Moltres, where multiple Team Rocket Grunts were seen raiding the building, searching for clues of Blaine's whereabouts in order to find and punish him for leaving Team Rocket.
