Template:Infobox town Petalburg City (Japanese: トウカシティ Touka City) is located in southern Hoenn. The town's motto is "Where People Mingle With Nature".
East of Petalburg City is Route 102 and Oldale Town. To the west is Route 104 where Mr. Briney's Cottage and the Petalburg Woods are found.
When a player first arrives at this city and talks to Norman, a boy named Wally will come in asking for help to catch a Pokémon. Using Zigzagoon, a Pokémon Norman lends, and the player's support, Wally catches his first Pokémon: a Ralts. Later on in the game, Wally becomes the main rival, while the alternate-gender choice (Brendan or May) returns to Littleroot Town to help his/her father. The Pokémon Center has a man near the PC who will let players put key words on their Trainer cards.
