'''Eindoak Town''' (Japanese: '''アイントオーク''' ''Eindoak'') is the setting for the [[M14|fourteenth movie]]. It is the relocated home of the "People of the Vale." Long ago, the [[Kingdom of the Vale]] engaged in a war which caused a disturbance in the force that kept the land alive and flourishing, the [[Dragon Force]]. Left with no other option, the [[King of the People of the Vale]] lifted the [[Sword of the Vale]] from the ground, and placed it atop a nearby mountain to ease the Dragon Force's fury. The People of the Vale then began anew, and over time erected a village along the mountain ridge where many have come to live. The town now boasts bountiful orchards that supply the town with food.
===In the anime===
During the battle tournament held for the village's Harvest Festival, {{Ash}} befriends {{p|Victini}}, a rare Pokémon that inhabits Eind Oak. Though cowardly, Victini is able to share its strange power with those it likes.
Not everything is peaceful, however. [[Dread Grangil]], a descendant of the People of the Earth, intends to resurrect the glory of his people's fallen kingdom. To do so, he plans to use Victini to reactivate the Earth's Sword.


===In the Manga===
==Location==
Dread appears in the manga adaptation of ''Victini and the Black Hero: Zekrom''. At the beginning of the story, he has returned to Eind Oak with the intent of bringing Victini to the Earth's Sword and reactivating the castle, allowing him to control the Earth's energy and revitalize his people.
Eindoak Town is located somewhere between [[Castelia City]] and [[Nimbasa City]].
