Camphrier Town (Japanese: コボクタウン Koboku Town) is a town located in the central Kalos region.

The northern part of town houses Shabboneau Castle, a large castle surrounded by a moat. Hotel Camphrier is also located in the town and offers a place for visitors to rest. The town is also home to Cassius, who operates the Kalos region's Pokémon Storage System. The citizens of Camphrier Town are known to be generous towards tourists. The town's cobblestone paths and tall, enclosing stone walls lend to its atmosphere of age.

To the east of the town lies Route 5, while to its west lies Route 7.

On the second floor of Hotel Camphrier, a group of travelers will rotate in and out of the rooms. Any of the travelers not at Hotel Camphrier on one day may be found at the hotels in Ambrette Town, Cyllage City, Geosenge Town, Coumarine City, and Couriway Town.

Six travelers will rotate among the first room on a six-day cycle: a Hiker, a Waiter, a Madame, a Maid, a male Tourist, and a Backpacker (in that order); as the player talks to these travelers on different days (at any hotel), they will gradually open up to the player. A female Tourist who gives out Ribbons will also occupy the second room every Tuesday.

Mr. Bonding also initially occupies the third room, granting the player the Sp. Atk. Power O-Power when spoken to.

In the anime

Camphrier Town in the anime

Camphrier Town appeared in Awakening the Sleeping Giant!. Every year, a Snorlax visits the town to eat lot of food. Afterwards it falls asleep, and so Lord Shabboneau of Shabboneau Castle plays the Poké Flute to wake the Snorlax. It then returns the year after. The citizens of Camphrier Town celebrate a festival around this event.

When Ash and his friends came to visit Camphrier Town, they found the Snorlax causing loud noises, and found out Lord Shabboneau refused to play the flute. As they visited Shabboneau Castle, they discovered Lord Shabboneau had lost the flute to Princess Allie of Parfum Palace. They went to reclaim it and ultimately delivered it back to Lord Shabboneau, who played the flute to awake Snorlax.
