Location Location of Mossdeep City in Hoenn. |
Mossdeep City (Japanese: トクサネシティ Tokusane City) lies on an island along the eastern edge of the Hoenn mainland. Many divers live at Mossdeep, and it is the fourth largest city in Hoenn. One of the city's attractions is Wailmer watching. A deep underwater trench runs between Mossdeep City and Sootopolis City. This cavern was found by Captain Stern in his submarine. Mossdeep City has a Pokémon Gym whose Gym Leaders are Tate and Liza.
The island of Mossdeep is covered in plants and flowers. Its weather is mainly sunny, and its winds are stable. This clear weather made Mossdeep the ideal location to build a space center to launch large rockets. In Mossdeep, there is a white rock which holds a special meaning to the people at the space center. They placed the rock outside of the space center as a symbol of their wish for their rockets to fly safely. After defeating the Elite Four, the player can obtain a level 5RSE/1ORAS Beldum from Steven's house.
Mossdeep City is the hub area of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire's Special Demo Version.
North of Mossdeep is the Shoal Cave, on Route 125. To the west is Route 124, and Route 127 lies to the south.
Slogan
Our slogan: Cherish Pokémon! (Japanese: 「ポケモンを たいせつに!」が あいことば Our slogan: "Cherish Pokémon!")
Places of interest
Mossdeep Space Center
- Main article: Mossdeep Space Center
Mossdeep was the ideal location to build a space center which launches huge rockets because of the stable weather conditions. The Space Center is successfully sending rockets into space. In Emerald, the Space Center plays a big part in the plot, where Team Magma attempts to steal rocket fuel while a rocket begins to launch into space. On the second floor, the player will meet with Steven and battle two Team Magma Grunts.
The Space Center also plays a key role in the Delta Episode of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. A Kecleon hides behind the astronaut cut out on the bottom floor in after the Delta Episode. This Kecleon has its hidden ability Protean.
Steven's house
The possibility of rare stones in the cavern has attracted the attention of Steven Stone, who owns a cottage here where he keeps part of his rock collection. He will leave behind a rare Beldum after the player defeats the Elite Four. Steven will also give the player HM08 here in Ruby and Sapphire (HM07 in their remakes, both containing Dive). In Emerald, however, he will give the player HM08 after defeating Team Magma at the Space Center. In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Steven's collection includes hornblende biotite granite from Rock Tunnel, pitchstone from Mt. Mortar, chert from Mt. Pyre, schalstein from Mt. Coronet and greenschist from Chargestone Cave.
Secret Base boy
The house east of the Pokémon Center houses a brother and sister. The boy likes to visit people's Secret Bases.
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the boy will tell the player where their Secret Base is located.
In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the boy tells the player that they can access additional areas in Secret Bases with Stairs and Solid Boards.
Pokéblock enthusiast's house
The house north of the Pokémon Center houses a couple. The man is a Black Belt who is very enthusiastic about Pokéblocks.
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, he will tell the player the preferred color of Pokéblock of the player's lead Pokémon.
In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, he serves no purpose, simply telling the player that their lead Pokémon likes them more than Pokéblocks.
Backdoor house
In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire and Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, these is an old man with a house with a door on the back wall.
In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, e-Reader Trainers will appear in the back room.
In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the old man mentions he used to be a Secret Base Expert. If the player scans the QR Code of a special Secret Base (such as those of Junichi Masuda, Shigeru Ohmori, Shigeki Morimoto, and Shōko Nakagawa), it will appear behind this door.
Game Corner
A Game Corner is located here in Pokémon Emerald. It replaces the backdoor house from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. It allows players to interact with Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen and other copies of Emerald in two mini-games, Pokémon Jump and Dodrio Berry Picking. Connections are made with the Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter.
Shore
In Pokémon Emerald, there is a Black Belt on the shore in the western part of the city who will teach a compatible Pokémon DynamicPunch one time only.
