Power Plant HGSS · Kanto Area
The Power Plant stands on Route 10 in eastern Kanto and powers the Magnet Train between Saffron and Goldenrod. When you arrive in the post-game, someone has stolen its Machine Part, and the train can’t run until you track the part down and return it to the manager. You reach the plant by surfing from Route 10.
