Vermillion being red fucks a lot of millennials up who grew up watching Pokemon.

Vermillion city not being a shade of yellow is the standout because it hosts the Electric Gym (yellow themed). Every other city's gym is related to the town color.

::: spoiler

Rock Gym is Pewter city (gray)
water gym is Cerulean city (blue)
grass gym is Celadon city (greenish)
poison gym is Fuschia city (pinkish is commonly poison for pokemon)
the FIGHTING gym is in Saffron city (orange ish is a Fighting type color in the tcg)
Fire gym is on Cinnabar Island (bright red)
Earth Badge is in Viridian (an earthy green)

Saffron City was built with the fighting gym in place. Sabrina's psychic gym has JUST replaced him when you get to town

Fun fact: apparently vermillion is actually made from cinnabar, so there's no reason why Vermillion City shouldn't have been located on Cinnabar Island.
