History FanonPokedex / LavenderTown

Following the Rocket Invasion and its ensuing chaos, the decision was made to decommission the tower, with the building being rebuilt as a radio tower. The remains of the Pokemon were moved to a sanctuary run by Mr Fuji, with the majority of them being interred in sanctified catacombs underneath the town. No supernatural activity has been reported in the area since, and even the Ghost Pokemon appear to have moved on.

A rumor has been going around for quite a while about Lavender Town supposedly being a cause for suicide in children, with its very presence being linked to kids' deaths, upon other afflictions. Evidence of this is severely lacking, however many still believe it. Research is currently needed here to see if the legend of Lavender Town Syndrome is true or not.

Lavender Town is situated at the end of the dark Rock Tunnel, with Saffron City to the west, and the bridge leading towards Vermillion and Fuchia City to the south, with the east being nothing but mountains and eventually the ocean. Aside from Pokemon Tower, there is very little of note in the area, with the only notable exceptions being that famed researcher Mr Fuji, and the self-proclaimed Name Rater living there.

Pokemon Tower is one of the most iconic landmarks of the Kanto region, and one with an unusually unsettling legend. The tower began life inside a hidden cliff-face, and over the course of decades grew into a towering monument to the Pokemon interred within. However, it became associated with ghosts and supernatural activity very early on in it's existance, even before the tower had been finished, with many of it's workers claiming they heard voices coming from inside. Soon after, Ghost-type Pokemon began appearing in the tower, drawn by the cemetary and whatever strange qualities the tower exhibited.

One of the most infamous incidents associated with the tower was the so-called Rocket Invasion. During the height of Team Rockets reign of terror in Kanto, they kidnapped the famous Pokemon researcher Mr Fuji and occupied the tower, ruthlessly killing several of the Pokemon living in the area. This coincided with a spike of reported supernatural activity, with many of the shrine nuns exhibiting behavior similar to possesion, and the Ghost Pokemon becoming hostile. The situation was resolved when the now legendary Pokemon trainer Red confronted an invisible entity barring off the upper floors of the tower using a technological device Team Rocket had stolen from Silph.Co, and afterwards rescuring Fuji from the remaining Rocket agents at the top. The exact details to this event remains unconfirmed, but things returned to normal immediatly afterwards.

Lavender Town is situated at one end of Rock Tunnel and can also be accessed via Saffron City or Route 12. There is no wind because of the mountains and the only important landmark is Pokemon Tower.

Mr. Fuji and the Name Rater make their home here.

Once a simple graveyard, Pokemon Tower began its life hidden in the inside of a hollowed out cliff-face. Because of its protection from the elements, people quickly brought their Pokemon here, quickly filling up the location. New floors were ordered built, despite the complaints by certain workers who said they heard voices.

Five years ago, Team Rocket invaded the Tower in order to gather the skulls of Cubone to sell. As a result, they killed a mother Marowak who was protecting her child. Outraged, Mr. Fuji went to stop Team Rocket but he was captured. The mediums were possessed by ghost pokemon, and no one could do anything.

On that same day, people say the legendary trainer Red came and entered the tower. Thirty minutes later, he came out with Mr. Fuji, who said the Marowak spirit had been put to rest. Because of future risk, Mr. Fuji built a house in memory of Red, called Memorial House, where he took the graves underground. Safe forever.

At the time, the tower is now the Kanto radio tower.

Lavender Town started out as one of the many graveyards dotted around Kanto. Up until the 18th century, when the advancement of technologies resulted in many Pokemon graves being moved around to accommodate, it wasn't well known. However, in despair of their Pokemon, many trainers went on a pilgrimage to find a safe place away from the technological world of Kanto in order to bury their Pokemon.
