Samiya
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
The Sea Temple, Samiya (misspelled as Samaya in Chuang Yi's manga translation), or Akusha in both Japanese and the Viz manga translation (Japanese: アクーシャ Akusha) is an underwater palace built by the People of the Water. It has a complex structure and holds the Sea Crown in its depths.
The People of the Water built the temple where the Manaphy lived. All Manaphy have homing instincts that guide them to the temple even though it has a cloaking device. Though it cannot be seen regularly, as it blends in with the water, it will appear visibly under a lunar eclipse. It floats around with the current presently, but used to stay put.
The temple started to sink when Phantom pulled crystals out of the Sea Crown. Fortunately, it returned to normal after the crystals were placed back in the Sea Crown. Official maps of the Pokémon world clearly show it is located near Kanto, but it is actually south of Cherrygrove City, meaning that it is located in the Johto region. However, considering how the movie states that it moves with the current, it could just as easily be the current location of it.
