====Main section====
Untitled section that describes the area. Depending on the area, this section may just describe where it is located in the Pokémon world and basic details regarding the area, or may go into considerable detail. Regardless, most text describing the location should be in this section.

Most of the existing city/town articles need to be modified to comply with the project standard (see below). You can check [[:Category:City and town stubs]] to see which articles need expanding.
A list of items available at shops with prices should be provided, using the [[Template:Shop|shop templates]] (instructions [[Template:Shop/doc|here]]).

'''Optional'''


This is the basic syntax you need to get a complete infobox on the article page, just place this before any other text and fill in the variables.
Place any notes about the area that are worth noting but are not notable enough for inclusion in the main section.
<pre>
{{Infobox town

*'''type:''' (''For bottom=gym only'') is the main type of the Gym
*'''map:''' is the name of the image file name of the overview map at Bulbagarden Archives. If no map is available, leave blank
