'''Marvelous Bridge''' (Japanese: '''ワンダーブリッジ''' ''Wonder Bridge'') is an arch bridge that connects {{rt|15|Unova}} in eastern [[Unova]] to {{rt|16|Unova}} in central Unova. The bridge is unique because it does not actually physically connect the two [[Route]]s. At each end of the bridge there is an elevator which travels through cliff side down to a [[gate]] which leads to the route.

In [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], if the player has given a man in an orange shirt a [[Fresh Water]] at [[Skyarrow Bridge]], [[Driftveil Drawbridge]], [[Tubeline Bridge]], and [[Village Bridge]], then they will meet up with the same man here. Should the player give him another Fresh Water, then he will become rehydrated and dash to the [[Marine Tube]].

==Description==
Upon crossing the bridge for the first time the {{player}} will encounter the [[Shadow Triad]] who will give the player the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Adamant Orb|Adamant}}, {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Lustrous Orb|Lustrous}}, and {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Griseous Orb}}s.

During certain occasions, the spirit of a deceased young girl will be standing on the bridge, and will disappear if the player walks towards her. An old lady in the gate to the east of the bridge will explain that the young girl used to play around the area with an {{p|Abra}} before the bridge was built. In [[Pokémon Black 2 & White 2|the sequels]], the girl will appear in [[Strange House]] where she will refer to Abra and the bridge before telling the player to return the [[Lunar Wing]] there, which will trigger a battle with [[Cresselia]].

Marvelous Bridge is home to [[Unova]]'s [[Magikarp salesman]], who, like in previous games, offers a Magikarp for {{PDollar}}500. However, unlike previous games, {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}} are not native to [[Unova]].

Marvelous Bridge can be seen from the deck of the [[Royal Unova]]. The ship travels up the river from [[Castelia City]] before turning around at the Marvelous Bridge.

===Patrat Show===
If the player has gone to [[Village Bridge]] and spoken to the woman with four {{p|Patrat}}, the woman and her troop will then appear on Marvelous Bridge and perform a cup-and-ball mini-game with her Patrat. Each Patrat has a distinctive characteristic: one has the biggest belly, the other the trendiest eyebrows, another the cutest dimples and the last has the biggest smile (of course, their sprites are all the same). The objective of the game is to guess which Patrat is holding a {{DL|Valuable item|Big Mushroom}}. If the player wins, the Big Mushroom is the prize. If the player loses, he or she may try again until the correct guess is made. The player may only play until winning once per day. A winning strategy is to just look at the order of their final jumps.

In Black 2 and White 2, the Patrat Show is not found, but a spiritual successor can be found in [[Striaton City|Striaton Café]], which is conducted with three {{p|Pansear}}, {{p|Panpour}} or {{p|Pansage}}.

==Trainers==
===Pokémon Black and White===
Located at the eastern gate. Once per day, she will battle the player again if the player defeats Ace Trainer Eileen{{sup/5|Bl}} or Ace Trainer Lou{{sup/5|W}} at [[Opelucid City]]'s {{DL|Opelucid City|Battle House}}.

Upon defeating the Trainer on the ground floor of the Battle House, Glinda will be ready for a rematch until she is defeated unless the Trainer on the ground floor of the Battle House had already been defeated that day. This allows Glinda to be battled up to twice in one day by defeating the Trainer on the ground floor of the Battle House, battling Glinda on another day then defeating the Trainer on the ground floor of the Battle House then battling Glinda again on the same day.
