Pallet Town
2 wild Pokémon across 1 encounter method.
Pallet Town Guide
Pallet Town is Kanto's calm southern doorstep, with [Oak's Lab]({location:oaks-lab}), the road to [Route 1]({location:route-1}), and Red's quiet homecoming on the shore.
Get your bearings
Treat Pallet as a reset point instead of a busy hub. The town is tiny, so it is easy to sweep in one lap: Oak's place on one side, the beach below, and the road north into the rest of Kanto.
Main jobs here
Your important stop is Oak's Lab if you want Oak's comments on your progress. The town also anchors the long surf line on Route 21 and the simple walk back up Route 1 to Viridian City.
Good revisits
Come back when you want a quiet Kanto checkpoint, an Oak visit, or the cleanest route into southern Kanto and the sea below town.

Map Movement Tips
These clues come from the map tiles, so they are handy when you are planning which moves or paths matter here.
Surf opens water paths here
Water tiles can become paths once you can Surf.
Bring a Surf user after earning Fog Badge if you want every shoreline path.
Repel Planning
If your lead Pokémon is above a wild level, Repel skips it. These checkpoints show what disappears completely.
