The Team Rocket HQ is a headquarters and a hideout for Team Rocket, located beneath the souvenir shop in Mahogany Town. For a period of time, Team Rocket used the headquarters as a power source to send out high-frequency sound waves, which disturbed the Pokémon in Mahogany Town, Lake of Rage, and other surrounding locations, and affected their evolution patterns. It is also the source of the problems occurring at the lake, involving the appearance of a Red Gyarados.

After the player encounters the Red Gyarados, Lance enlists the help from the player to stop Team Rocket's plans. After Ariana is defeated, she explains that they were trying to evolve the Magikarp living in the Lake of Rage because Gyarados are far more profitable and rare than their pre-evolutionary form. Team Rocket abandon the headquarters, and search for their next phase of action.

Layout

According to the Team Rocket members found inside the hideout, it was once used as a ninja base, and was presumably renovated by Team Rocket sometime in the past. The upper floor of the base contains Persian statues with security cameras in their eyes—walking past one triggers two Team Rocket Grunts to battle the player until they deactivate the cameras using a switch in the center of the area. The far left hallway bypasses most of the Persian cameras, but the floor is booby-trapped with Koffing, Voltorb and Geodude, which battle the player and have a tendency to Selfdestruct. The second floor contains the generator room where six Electrode power the radio transmitter. The room is locked and requires a password to open. The third floor contains workstations, and a passage back onto the second floor leads to the rear of the hideout where the main office is located. The office is also locked and requires two passwords to open.

When Lance and the player invade the hideout, the player must defeat the male Grunt and the female Grunt on the third floor to acquire the two passwords to the main office. After defeating Petrel here the Murkrow next to his desk tells the player the password to the generator room is "Hail Giovanni". When the player opens the doors to the Generator Room Ariana challenges you to a battle. Once the Electrode powering the generator are defeated, Lance gives the player the HM containing Whirlpool as thanks for the assistance.

Though Lance instructs the player to knock out the Electrode powering the generator, the player is able to catch them if they choose to do so, and the result will be the same as if they had knocked them out.
