	Games - New Bark Town

New Bark Town is a fictional town in the Pokémon video games and animated television series. In both, it is referred to as "the town where the winds of a new beginning blow". It lies in the Johto region.

Video games

New Bark Town is the town in which players start their journeys in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal. The player is a child who lives here with his mother, who will act like a bank if the player asks her to.

Players receive their first Pokémon in this town from the famous Professor Elm, also a resident. They have a choice between three Pokémon, which are Chikorita (Grass), Cyndaquil (Fire) and Totodile (Water). It is also where they receive their Pokégears, as well as see their rival for the first time.

The population is 12.

To the west is Cherrygrove City, which can be reached via Route 29, home to Pidgey, Hoothoot, and Sentret.

To the east is the vast Kanto region from Red, Blue, and Yellow, but this is not obvious when starting the game. One way to reach Kanto is by using a Pokémon to cross the lake immediately to the east of town.

Animated series

In the Pokémon anime, New Bark Town is the first town in Johto that Ash Ketchum visits (episode Don't Touch that 'Dile).
