'''Mauville City''' (Japanese: '''{{j|キンセツシティ}}''' ''Kinsetsu City'') is located in central [[Hoenn]] and serves as the hub for travelers throughout the Hoenn region. 

==Geography==
Mauville is a large city, located in-between four different routes. The roads of the town stretch north to {{rt|111|Hoenn}}, west to {{rt|117|Hoenn}} and [[Verdanturf Town]], east to a beach on {{rt|118|Hoenn}}, and south to {{rt|110|Hoenn}}.

[[Wattson]] is the [[Gym Leader]] and founder of Mauville. In [[Generation III]], he originally had plans to do a complete overhaul of the town, but abandoned them. In [[Generation VI]], Wattson instead managed to redevelop it, modeling the design on that of [[Lumiose City]] of [[Kalos]]. Due to this, its layout has changed dramatically, becoming a mostly-indoor city with various shops and three floors. The redevelopment of Mauville is the only successful project of [[Greater Mauville Holdings]].

==Points of interest==
===Mauville Gym===
{{main|Mauville Gym}}

===Rydel's Cycles===
{{main|Rydel's Cycles}}
Located in the east of the city, a store known as [[Rydel's Cycles]]. It is very conveniently located for the owner and customers alike, as the [[Seaside Cycling Road]] runs on {{rt|110|Hoenn}}, just to the south. [[Rydel]] sells [[Acro Bike]]s and [[Mach Bike]]s. However, he will give the {{player}} a bike for free after he finds out that the player has come all the way from [[Littleroot Town]] with just [[Running Shoes]]. The player may exchange their bike with Rydel for the other bike.

In [[Generation VI]], after the [[Delta Episode]], the player has the opportunity to carry both bikes at the same time. After advertising the bikes to certain NPCs, the player will receive the counterpart bike of the one they are currently using as thanks for their continued advertisement of the Rydel brand. The NPCs are located:

* {{rt|111|Hoenn}} [[Desert]]: A {{tc|Hex Maniac}} up a muddy slope to the north that requires the Mach Bike to climb.
* {{rt|119|Hoenn}}: A {{tc|Bird Keeper}} at the northmost maze of bridges, requires {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Waterfall}} along with the Acro Bike.
* [[Battle Resort]]: A biking {{tc|Triathlete}} southeast of the [[Pokémon Day Care]].

===Mauville Game Corner===
{{main|Mauville Game Corner}}
Located in the south west of the city, the [[Mauville Game Corner]] can be found. In [[Generation III]], it is a tourist attraction where people can gamble coins on slots or roulette. This game corner houses two roulette wheels and sixteen slot machines. A [[Coin Case]] is needed to play at the game corner, which can also be found in one of the houses at Mauville City, in exchange for [[Harbor Mail]].

In [[Generation VI]], the Game Corner is closed, with the owner stating that he had to close it for "reasons you don't need to know".
On the closed door, a notice reads:
:''"Thank you for your support over the years. Good game!"''
:''"Mauville Game Corner Owner"''

===Old guys===
{{main|Old guys}}
In the Mauville Pokémon Center, a quintet of characters known as the old guys can be found. In [[Generation III]], they will all appear in the Pokémon Center depending on the player's [[Trainer ID number]], though a different one can appear if they mix records with another player that has a different man in their game.

In [[Generation VI]], the Old guys will give the player various [[O-Power]]s. Only Giddy initially appears in the Pokémon Center, and after being interacted with twice, he will leave. Other old guys will only appear or give the player their second set of O-Powers after the player has reached specific points in the storyline. If one of the men leaves, the next will not appear until the player has reached the point in the storyline where they can receive the next O-Power; if the player obtains the first O-Power from one old guy but is not yet far enough in the game to obtain the second from him, the current old guy will remain in the Pokémon Center.

After the Storyteller has left the Pokémon Center for their shared apartment in Mauville Hills (Apartment 3), when the player visits all five in their apartment, the Storyteller will mention that they are looking for someone to pass their powers to; the player tells him about the powerless man living across the hall, at which point the Storyteller requests that the player lead the powerless man to them. If the player does so, they will each give him their power (disappearing after doing so), turning the powerless man into Mr. Bonding. Mr. Bonding will give the player the final O-Power, Hatching Power, and leave.

===Rock Smash Guy===
In [[Generation III]], the {{HM|06|Rock Smash}} is given by a character in a house at the south of the city.

In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, this character is unidentified. In {{game|Emerald}} only, he is known as Rock Smash Guy (Japanese: いわくだきオヤジ ''Rock Smash Old Man''), but he prefers to be called Rock Smash Dude (Japanese: いわくだきにいさん ''Rock Smash Young Man'').

In the English version of Pokémon Emerald, there is also a non-player character on {{rt|111|Hoenn}} who claims that this HM is obtained from his uncle. This also applies to the German, French, Italian, and Spanish versions, which were translated from English. However, in the Japanese version, he simply refers to the Rock Smash Guy using the word 「オヤジ」, which can mean either "old man" or "father".

He is also mentioned (as Rock Smash Guy) by {{ga|Brendan}} or {{ga|May}} in the {{DL|PokéNav|Match Call}}.

Here are his names in other languages:

* French:
*: Current name: Type Éclate-Roc (''Rock Smash Guy'')
*: Preferred name: Mec Éclate-Roc (''Rock Smash Dude'')
* German:
*: Current name: Zertrümmerer (''Rock Smash'')
*: Preferred name: Zertrümmerer-Meister (''Rock Smash Master'')
* Italian:
*: Current name: Tipo Spaccaroccia (''Rock Smash Guy'')
*: Preferred name: Bello Spaccaroccia (''Rock Smash Beautiful'')
* Spanish:

*: Preferred name: Maestro Golpe Roca (''Rock Smash Master'')

There is no response from the intercom.

====Apartment 3====
Apt. 3: Old Guys' Home is located against the eastern wall on the north side of the eastern hallway. It is home to the [[old guys]] found in the Mauville City [[Pokémon Center]]. Each time one of the old guys gives the player both of their [[O-Power]]s, they return here (old guys the player has not yet encountered in the Pokémon Center are not present).

If the player speaks to the Storyteller after having spoken to the powerless man in Apt. 11, the Storyteller will ask the player to go fetch the man. When the powerless man is spoken to again, the player will bring him to Apt. 3. Here, the old guys transfer their power to the powerless man one by one, each one disappearing as he does. Once all five old guys have disappeared, the powerless man becomes [[Mr. Bonding]], who gives the player Hatching Power and leaves.

There is no response from the intercom.

====Apartment 7====
Apt. 7: A Dreaming Man's Home is located against the western wall on the south side of the western hallway. It is home to a {{tc|Scientist}} who dreams of giving out {{HM|06|Rock Smash}} to Trainers. He can be found practicing his explanation of the function of Rock Smash HM. On the wall is a picture of a rock being smashed. There is also a {{tc|Beauty}} with a {{p|Slakoth}} in the overworld.

There is no response from the intercom.

====Apartment 11====
Apt. 11: A Powerless Man's Home is located against the western wall on the north side of the eastern hallway. It is home to a businessman who is depressed about his lack of power.

This apartment also includes access to the balcony. {{TM|89|U-turn}} can be found on this balcony.

There is no response from the intercom.

====Apartment 13====
Apt. 13: Wattson's Home is located against the northern wall on the east side of the southern hallway. Here, Wattson will request that the player visit [[New Mauville]] and press a button on the computer. After doing so, he will reward the player with {{TM|24|Thunderbolt}}; Wattson will then return to his Gym rather than staying in his apartment. Other than Wattson (who is not always there), inside Wattson's apartment is his wife, as well as a {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} walking around in the overworld.

Wattson's apartment also includes access to the balcony. A {{p|Taillow}} in the overworld is standing on this balcony.

Using the intercom, a voice will invite the player inside.

====Apartment 14====
Apt. 14: An Ice-Cream Lover's House is located against the northern wall on the west side of the southern hallway. It is home to a {{tc|Fairy Tale Girl}} who will sell the player a [[Casteliacone]] for {{pdollar}}200 if the player has {{p|Regice}} in their [[party]].

This apartment also includes access to the balcony. A {{tc|Rich Boy}} is standing on this balcony, who comments about the exclusive view tenants have access to.

There is no response from the intercom.

====Inaccessible inhabited apartments====
For all of these apartments, the door is locked, preventing the player from entering; however, a person inside will talk to the player over the intercom.

Apt. 5: A Composer's Home is located against the southern wall on the east side of the southern hallway. Using the intercom, the composer assumes the player to be a fan and considers their presence to be an invasion of his privacy.

Apt. 6: A Devoted Woman's Home is located against the southern wall on the west side of the southern hallway. It is home to woman who is a huge fan of the composer in apartment 5. Using the intercom, the woman assumes the player to be a fan of the composer, criticizing the player for attempting to enter the composer's home and proclaiming that she is a more devoted fan.

Apt. 9: A Cold Woman's Home is located against the southern wall on the west side of the northern hallway. Using the intercom, the woman will simply tell the player she doesn't need anything.

Apt. 10: Home of the Man Who Keeps an Eye on the Corridor is located against the southern wall on the east side of the northern hallway. Using the intercom, the man will ask the player to leave as they are obstructing his view of the corridor through his video intercom.

Apt. 12: A Frightened Man's Home is located against the western wall on the south side of the eastern hallway. It is home to a {{tc|Collector}} who is late on his rent payment. The first time the player visits the area, he is in the hallway being harassed by a loan shark for money, with the two of them entering the locked apartment after a brief conversation. If the player returns to this hallway, the loan shark will be standing outside and give the player a [[Lopunnite]] who took as payment from this tenant. Using the intercom, the man will claim to not be home.

====Vacant apartments====
Apartments 4, 8, 15, and 16 are vacant. There is no response from the intercom. They serve no functional purpose.

Unlike the other three, Apartment 16 states it has a deal on the lease, and using the intercom gives a response of "..." rather than a message telling the player that there is no response.

Apartment 4 is located against the eastern wall on the south side of the eastern hallway, Apartment 8 against the western wall on the north side of the western hallway, Apartment 15 against the eastern wall on the south side of the western hallway, and Apartment 16 against the eastern wall on the north side of the western hallway.

==Demographics==
===Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald===
In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and {{game|Emerald}}, the population of Mauville City is 39. This number means it is a medium-sized [[Hoenn]] city.

===Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire===
In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, including the Trainers in the Food Court, Mauville City has a total population of 148, making it the largest city in Hoenn and the fifth-largest city in the [[Pokémon world]], following [[Mesagoza]], {{ci|Lumiose}}, [[Wyndon]], and {{ci|Nimbasa}}, and preceding {{ci|Castelia}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Mauville City anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Mauville City in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first arrived at Mauville in ''[[AG039|A Poké-BLOCK Party!]]'', where they competed in its annual [[Trick House]] contest. Aside from the [[Trick Master|King of Tricks]]' designed obstacles, the group had to deal with {{TRT}} and {{an|Jigglypuff}}'s interventions. In the end, [[Ivan]] won the competition.
[[File:Mauville City anime2.png|thumb|250px|Overlooking view of Mauville City and New Mauville]]
In ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson]]'', Ash and his friends went straight to the [[Mauville Gym]] for Ash's third [[Hoenn]] [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}. After getting through the numerous traps set up inside the Gym, Ash challenged [[Wattson]] for a Gym battle. Due to his {{AP|Pikachu}} having accidentally become overcharged while destroying one of Wattson's Gym traps, Ash easily won the match, earning the {{Badge|Dynamo}}. Wattson was initially shaken by his quick loss, and Ash felt that he didn't truly deserve the Badge. However, upon learning the situation behind Ash's swift victory, Wattson told Ash to keep his Badge. Ash and his friends left Mauville City in the [[AG041|next episode]] and headed for [[Fallarbor Town]].

The group returned to Mauville City in ''[[AG059|Manectric Charge]]'', on their way back to [[Petalburg City]]. During their pit stop, Ash decided to have a [[rematch]] with Wattson, using his recently {{pkmn2|caught}} {{AP|Torkoal}}. This time, Wattson emerged victorious in their battle, thanks to his newly [[Evolution|evolved]] {{TP|Wattson|Manectric}}.

In ''[[JN036|Making Battles in the Sand!]]'', Ash and [[Goh]] visited a half-buried Mauville City after reports of a {{weather|sandstorm}}, along with a peculiar song that lured people into it, reached the [[Cerise Laboratory]]. They discovered that a {{TP|Goh|Flygon}}, which Goh later {{pkmn2|caught}} alongside a {{p|Trapinch}} and {{p|Vibrava}}, was behind the strange phenomenon.

Mauville City is the [[hometown]] of {{ho|Tyson}}, one of Ash's [[rival]]s during the [[Ever Grande Conference]].

===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}====
Mauville City appeared in ''[[PS203|I'm Your Biggest Fan, Donphan]]'', where {{adv|Sapphire}} arrived in the outskirts of the city on {{rt|110|Hoenn}}. There, she met [[Wattson]] and the [[Trick Master]], and accidentally found the secret entrance to [[New Mauville]]. In ''[[PS204|Plugging Past Electrike I]]'', the Trick Master revealed that Mauville City was facing a problem with the overpopulation of children, but with the rediscovery of New Mauville, which the Trick Master's ancestor had built as a giant underground amusement park, that problem was solved. As thanks for solving the city's overpopulation problem, Wattson gave Sapphire a {{badge|Dynamo}}.

During the weather crisis caused by {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Groudon}} and {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Kyogre}}, the citizens of Mauville sought shelter in New Mauville.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* "Mauville" is the French name of [[Violet City]].
** The city's French name "Lavandia" is the same as the German name of [[Lavender Town]].
** Additionally, the city shares its name with Lavender Town in Korean.
* A small [[glitch]] occurs in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. If the player obtains the Mach Bike or Acro Bike before battling [[Wally]], leaves the city, gets on the bicycle, then re-enters and battles him, the bicycle music will start playing after Wally's theme ends instead of the town's usual background music.
* In the PokéMileage Center shop, there is a TV displaying three pictures. The first one features the [[Lumiose Gym|Prism Tower]], the second one the [[Tower of Mastery]], and the third one the [[Lumiose Museum]].
* In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, after completing the [[Delta Episode]], [[Winona]] is standing on a transmission tower on the roof of Mauville Hills.
