<br />
The '''Great Marsh''' (Japanese: '''だいしつげん''' ''Great Marsh'') is an area located in [[Pastoria City]]. It contains some [[Pokémon]] that cannot be found anywhere else in Sinnoh. It is filled with [[marsh tile|marshy areas]], which, unlike normal marsh tiles, have [[tall grass]] which are inhabited by [[wild Pokémon]].<br />
<br />
Much like other Pokémon preserves in [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]], the Great Marsh features a Safari Game in which {{pkmn|Trainer}}s pay {{PDollar}}500 for 30 [[Poké Ball#Generation I Poké Balls|Safari Balls]] and a limited amount of time to catch all the Pokémon they can. The time limit is actually calculated in the number of steps the {{player}} takes.<br />
<br />
When a wild Pokémon appears, no Pokémon may be sent out to {{pkmn|battle}} it: catching Pokémon here, as in all [[Safari Zone]]s, requires sheer luck. There are four options in the battle screen: <br />
*Throw a [[Poké Ball#Generation I Poké Balls|Safari Ball]], <br />
*throw bait, <br />
*throw mud, <br />
*run from battle. <br />
Throwing bait makes a Pokémon less likely to run, but makes it harder to catch; while throwing mud does the reverse, making it easier to catch but more likely to run.<br />
<br />
Similar to the issue in the [[Pal Park]], if the player has an {{p|Arceus}} in the front of their party, holding a plate, and intiates a battle, [[Game freeze|the game will freeze]].<br />

===Changing Pokémon===<br />
These Pokémon will not always appear in the Marsh. Each day, the Pokémon will change, therefore, to get a new set, players must wait a day. These Pokémon will appear randomly in one of the six areas, some may not appear for a while, while others appear several days in a row or in multiple areas on the same day. Some may not appear until after getting the [[National Pokédex]]. The only way to tell which changing Pokémon is available in the areas for the day is to use the lookout upstairs from the entrance. [[Mixing records]] also changes the changing Pokémon of the day in the Great Marsh so all players mixing records have the same Pokémon on the same day.<br />

==In the anime==<br />
As a boy, [[James]] was exploring the Great Marsh, and found a {{TP|James|Carnivine}} stuck in the mud, struggling to get free. James pulled it out, and they became friends. Carnivine has been James's friend ever since, and since he most recently arrived in Sinnoh, has been traveling with James.<br />
<br />
In ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]'', [[Brock]] and his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} participate in a {{p|Croagunk}} festival held in the Great Marsh.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* All the main characters in the Pokémon anime (except {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|May}}) have (or had at any point) a Pokémon that can be found in the Great Marsh.<br />
* A man in the Great Marsh incorrectly states that both the bait and the mud make Pokémon more likely to run but less easy to catch.<br />
*If you have a walk through walls cheat and run through the counter of the Great Marsh, past the lady who asks for money, into the Safari Zone and encounter a wild pokemon, the battle will be just like the ones outside of the Marsh.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
* '''Italian:''' ''Gran Palude''<br />
* '''Spanish:''' ''Gran Pantano''<br />
* '''German:''' ''Großmoor''<br />
