There are three routes connecting to it: to the south of the city is {{rt|4|Unova}} and the vast [[Desert Resort]], to the west is {{rt|5|Unova}}, and to the east is {{rt|16|Unova}}. Nimbasa City is the most populous city in the [[Pokémon world]]. In contrast to [[Castelia City]], which is the heart of business and economy in the Unova region, Nimbasa serves as the heart of leisure and entertainment. Nimbasa City is well known for its grand-scale landmarks such as the [[Pokémon Musical|Musical Theater]], [[Battle Subway|Gear Station]], [[Big Stadium and Small Court]], Battle Institute, and the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel and amusement park.<br /> <br /> [[Elesa]] is the Gym Leader of Nimbasa City. She specializes in the {{t|Electric}} type and hands out the {{Badge|Bolt}} upon defeat.<br /> <br /> ==Places of interest==<br /> ===Musical Theater===<br /> The Musical Theater is where the [[Pokémon Musical]] takes place, located in the north of Nimbasa. The player meets [[Bianca]] here upon their first arrival.<br /> <br /> Inside, the owner of the theater will give the {{player}} a Prop Case and show them how to dress up their Pokémon.<br /> <br /> ===Gear Station===<br /> {{main|Battle Subway}}<br /> Gear Station is the central hub of the [[Battle Subway]]. All eight lines of the Battle Subway are accessed through Gear Station, including the only available route to [[Anville Town]]. The [[stats judge]] which can appraise a Pokémon's {{IV}}s is located in Gear Station as well.<br /> <br /> ===Big Stadium and Small Court===<br /> {{main|Big Stadium and Small Court}}<br /> Nimbasa City's sports venues, Big Stadium and Small Court, are where sportspeople and sports fans go to practice and engage in both Pokémon battles and the sport of their choosing. They are also the places where sporting events are hosted in the [[Unova]] region. Big Stadium hosts sports requiring fields, specifically baseball, soccer, and football; meanwhile, Small Court hosts sports requiring courts, specifically tennis and basketball.<br /> <br /> Trainers may be battled daily at both facilities except during event hours.<br /> <br /> ===Battle Institute===<br /> [[File:Battle Institute outside BW.jpg|230px|thumb|Outside the Battle Institute]]<br /> [[File:Battle Institute inside BW.jpg|230px|thumb|Inside the Battle Institute]]<br /> The Battle Institute (Japanese: '''トライアルハウス''' ''Trial House'') is a building just left of the Pokémon Center. The Trainers met here are the same ones that battle in the Battle Subway&lt;!--, and the same Pokémon banned from the Battle Subway are banned from entering here, as well--&gt;. The player can opt to fight five consecutive mock battles—called the Battle Test—of either Single Battles (requiring three Pokémon) or Double Battles (requiring four Pokémon). When battling, all Pokémon are auto-leveled to 50, whether they were below in level or above. Bag items are not permitted to be used. At the end of the fifth battle, the player is awarded a score and a rank.<br /> <br /> In Black 2 and White 2, the Battle Institute can only be accessed after defeating the Elite Four and Champion. If the player tries to access it before that point, an Ace Trainer will exit the institute and block the entrance, telling the player that they must become the Champion before they can enter. Unlike the Battle Subway, the Battle Institute does not require the player to save the game before participating.<br /> <br /> Each battle grows in difficulty, starting with pre-evolved Pokémon and potentially fighting [[legendary Pokémon]] by the end. Once the Battle Test begins, there is no quitting; losing one battle means continuing to the next, until all five battles are complete. The 'Run' command acts as a battle forfeit measure for that battle only. If it is not the fifth battle, the player's forfeit will trigger the next battle.<br /> <br /> The scoring system is:<br /> {| class=&quot;roundy&quot; style=&quot;background: #{{electric color light}}; border: 3px solid #{{electric color dark}};&quot;<br /> |- <br /> !style=&quot;background: #{{electric color}}; {{roundytl|5px}}&quot;|Rank<br /> !style=&quot;background: #{{electric color}};&quot; | Points<br /> !style=&quot;background: #{{electric color}}; {{roundytr|5px}}&quot;| Stars<br /> |- align=&quot;center&quot; style=&quot;background: #FFFFFF;&quot;<br /> !

Points are awarded depending on how many battles are won (no points are awarded for lost battles) and how well the player beats the opponent; fainted teammates count against the final score, as does damage taken.<br /> <br /> The scoring breakdown is as follows:<br /> * 1000 points per battle won<br /> * 80 points per opposing Pokémon fainted<br /> * 5 points per switch<br /> * 1 point per super-effective attack<br /> * 4 points per opposing attack that is rendered ineffective (either from type immunities, {{a|Levitate}}, or a status attack that the Pokémon is immune to due to typing)<br /> * 2 points per opposing attack that is rendered not very effective<br /> * 30 points if a battle was won with the opposing side taking at least one turn, 15 points if a battle was won without the opposing side taking a turn<br /> * -80 points per Pokémon fainted<br /> * -10 points per turn<br /> * -10 points per ineffective attack against the opponent (on the same basis as the above)<br /> * -2 points per resisted attack against the opponent<br /> * 1 point per percent of HP remaining after each battle<br /> <br /> ===Rondez-View Ferris Wheel===<br /> The Rondez-View Ferris Wheel is a couples-only Ferris wheel.<br /> <br /> Trainers may be battled here daily; the Trainer varies with the season and the gender of the player. The Trainer's Japanese names are related to the season they appear in; however, in {{game|Black and White|s|Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Hiker Natsumi (Andy in English) appears in autumn and not summer as his name corresponds to and did originally. With the exception of Black and White's Preschooler Winter, the English names do not relate to the seasons.<br /> <br /> After the battle, the Trainer will accompany the player on the wheel. In the Japanese version, the conversations on the Ferris wheel are laced with {{wp|double entendre}}s. In the Japanese versions of Black 2 and White 2, {{tc|Nursery Aide}} Enatsu (June in English) admits to being a man disguised as a woman in order to be a Nursery Aide, but this dialogue is cut from the English games.<br /> <br /> In {{game|Black and White|s}}, [[N]] is battled here as part of the main storyline.<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon Black and White====<br /> These Trainers can only be battled after defeating [[Elesa]].<br /> <br /> {| style=&quot;margin:auto;

However, this team was later found out to be a sham created by [[Grings Kodai]].<br /> <br /> Nimbasa City first appeared at the beginning of ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]'' for a short time where [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]] arrived on a mission and again in ''[[BW042|Club Battle Finale: A Heroes Outcome!]]'' where the trio were riding the ferris wheel. Sometime prior to ''[[BW043|Meowth's Scrafty Tactics!]]'', the trio started a mission which made it appear that {{MTR}} messed up and was fired, however, it was revealed in ''[[BW047|Crisis from the Underground Up!]]'' that it was a plan to steal the gang's Pokémon.<br /> <br /> [[Nimbasa Town]], named after the city, is located on its outskirts.<br /> <br /> Nimbasa City appeared again in ''[[BW049|Enter Elesa, Electrifying Gym Leader!]]'', along with [[Elesa]]. {{Ash}} won his Gym battle against her in ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]''. Nimbasa City's famous attractions, such as the Ferris Wheel and the sport parks, were extensively featured in ''[[BW051|Lost at the Stamp Rally!]]''.<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Nimbasa's Japanese motto is {{tt|稲妻きらめく　輝きの街|Shining city where lightning sparkles}}.<br /> * Nimbasa City is the only known city in the [[Pokémon world]] to feature arenas for human sporting events and an amusement park.<br /> * There is a large {{p|Pikachu}} figure in the amusement park, even though Pikachu are not native to Unova. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, a Pichu is also shown next to it.<br /> <br /> ==Name origin==<br /> {| class=&quot;roundy&quot; style=&quot;float:left; background: #{{electric color light}}; border: 3px solid #{{electric color}}&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;<br /> ! style=&quot;{{roundytl|5px}}&quot; | Language<br /> !
