Indigo Plateau serves as the capital for the Pokémon League. It is the final destination for Pokémon Trainers competing in Indigo or Johto League competitions against the Elite Four. This is where the powerful Elite Four battle against Trainers in a final showdown of becoming a master Pokémon Trainer, who may be challenged after defeating all eight Gym Leaders of either respective region. In the anime, it is also the location of the Indigo Plateau Conference, Kanto Grand Festival and the Pokémon League Village. Indigo Plateau is located just north of Victory Road and Route 23, and east of Mt. Silver.
