Power Plant Crystal · Kanto landmark

The Power Plant stands on Route 10 north of Rock Tunnel and powers the Magnet Train. When you reach Kanto in Pokémon Crystal its generator has been sabotaged, and recovering the stolen Machine Part drives the main Kanto story. The manager rewards you with TM07 Zap Cannon, and a trader named Forest offers a Magneton.

Tips
- Talk to the manager first; this sends you to Cerulean, where a Rocket grunt flees the Gym.
- Bring the Machine Part back to receive TM07 Zap Cannon.
- Returning the part restarts the Magnet Train, opens the Underground Path and lets Lavender Radio Tower give you the EXPN Card.
- Forest trades his Magneton ‘Maggie’, holding a Metal Coat, for a Dugtrio from Diglett’s Cave.
