Pinwheel Forest: Difference between revisions

This article is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this article to add missing information and complete it.

Pinwheel Forest (Japanese: ヤグルマの森 Yaguruma Forest) is a forest in Unova which lies between Nacrene City and Castelia City, at the east end of the Skyarrow Bridge.

The legendary Pokémon Virizion can be found deep in the forest. However, in order to capture Virizion, the player must first encounter Cobalon, who resides in Mistralton Cave.

Geography

There is an outer portion to the east which is accessible as soon as the player gains access to Nacrene City, and an inner portion to the west which is accessible only after winning at the Nacrene Gym.

Like in Eterna Forest, it has a moss-covered rock near the entrance. Leveling up Eevee in this forest will allow it to evolve into Leafeon.

The outskirts

Pinwheel Forest is shown to be a huge forest in the anime. With mountains and fields on the outskirts, and a variety of foliage and moss. Inside the forest, there are mossy trees, one where a bunch of Galvantula live. In the middle of the forest is a giant tree where the whole forest can be seen from. It is also shown to have a waterfall and caves where Patrat live. A Pokémon Center is shown inside the forest.

The outskirts appeared in BW017 where Ash's egg hatched into a Scraggy. It became a bully and picked on Ash's Pokémon. Later it was badly hurt by a Galvantula, but recovered after taking some medicine Iris had made. The next day it challenged the Galvantula again but needed saving from Ash and his friends after the entire colony of Galvantula joined in the fight. Then Zuruggu had a battle with Axew which ended in a draw.

Ash and his friends reach Pinwheel Forest in BW018 where they met the Castelia Gym Leader, Burgh. Ash encounters a Sewaddle which battles Pikachu before disappearing. It appears later where it stays with the group. It then helps to defeat two Woobat with Pikachu. The next day, Sewaddle gets stuck to a Deerling and falls into a river but is saved by Burgh's Leavanny. Later, Ash visits the Pokémon Center where he sends one of his Pokémon to Professor Juniper to make room for Sewaddle.

Just outside of Pinwheel Forest, a path leads to a huge Poké Mart where loads of goods are sold such as gems and jewelry. Pokémon Sommeliers, including Cabernet, also set up booths in the area where they judge the compatibility that a Pokémon and their Trainer have. Ash, Iris and Cilan visited it in BW019.
