Template:Infobox town

Ever Grande City (Japanese: サイユウシティ Saiyū City) is located on an island in eastern Hoenn. The island is blanketed in flowers.

Pokémon Trainers come here to battle the Elite Four of Hoenn after earning eight Gym Badges. There are two Pokémon Centers on the island, in the south and in the north. Either can be reached by using Fly.

With its steep cliffs, it is impossible to reach the city itself without possessing a Pokémon able to scale the high waterfall on the southern end of the city. High above the ocean, its slopes are lush with grass and flowers. The island is bisected by Hoenn's Victory Road, which runs through a large mountain at the center of the island.

Places of Interest

Victory Road

Main article: Victory Road (Hoenn)

Victory Road is a dark, complex cave that passes through the middle of Ever Grande City, separating it into two sections. Due to the difficulty of traversing Victory Road, only the toughest trainers will reach the northern end of the tunnel, and thus the Pokémon League and Elite Four. The player must own many HMs to pass though Victory Road and near the exit the player must battle Wally.

Pokémon League

Main article: Hoenn League

The Pokémon League building is the last resting spot before the player challenges the Elite Four. It is a big Pokémon Center and Poké Mart put together with a gateway to the Elite Four which can only entered if the player has all eight Gym badges. The nurse at the left counter will heal the player's Pokémon and the player may purchase items at the right counter.

Demographics

In the games, its population is uncertain; it is difficult to differentiate between the trainers passing through the town to challenge the Elite Four and normal residents. The only buildings that appear are the Pokémon Centers; there are no houses.

In the anime

Ever Grande City in the anime

Ash and co. arrive in Ever Grande City in the episode Like a Meowth to a Flame and leave in The Scheme Team. While there, Ash competes in the Ever Grande Conference and battles his Hoenn rivals, Morrison and Tyson. Ever Grande City in the anime is much different to the game, as there are many houses, restaurants and shops including the Ever Grande Conference Shop, and no sight of Victory Road.

Trivia

  • This is the only city to host a Pokémon League in the games. However, besides the league itself and a Pokémon Center, there are no other buildings in Ever Grande City, residential or otherwise.
  • This is the only city in the Pokémon world that holds two Pokémon Centers.
  • The northern Pokémon Center in Ruby and Sapphire does not hold a second floor. This isn't the case in Emerald, however.
