In Pokémon Red and Blue, which town contains Pokémon Tower?

The story behind the answer

Lavender Town contains Pokémon Tower in Pokémon Red and Blue.

Lavender Town is a small settlement in the Kanto region, positioned along routes connecting major parts of the map. Its most important landmark is Pokémon Tower, a memorial site for deceased Pokémon. In the original Red and Blue story, the player visits the tower while investigating reports involving Team Rocket and a frightened ghost Pokémon.

The tower originally serves as a cemetery and later becomes the location of the renamed Kanto Radio Tower in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal after Team Rocket’s occupation. Lavender Town is also known for its distinctive music, which has become one of the most recognizable pieces associated with the original games. It is sometimes confused with Saffron City because both locations are central to Team Rocket’s Kanto storyline, but Pokémon Tower is specifically located in Lavender Town.
