Location
Hoenn Mossdeep City Map.png
Location of Mossdeep City in Hoenn.

Mossdeep City (Japanese: トクサネシティ Tokusane City) lies on an island along the eastern edge of the Hoenn mainland. Many divers live at Mossdeep. One of the city's attractions is Wailmer watching. A deep underwater trench runs between Mossdeep City and Sootopolis City. This cavern was found by Captain Stern in his submarine. Mossdeep City has a Pokémon Gym whose Gym Leaders are Tate and Liza.

The island of Mossdeep is covered in plants and flowers. Its weather is mainly sunny, and its winds are stable. This clear weather made Mossdeep the ideal location to build a space center to launch large rockets. In Mossdeep, there is a white rock which holds a special meaning to the people at the space center. They placed the rock outside of the space center as a symbol of their wish for their rockets to fly safely. After defeating the Elite Four, the player can obtain a level 5 Beldum from Steven's house.

North of Mossdeep is the Shoal Cave, on Route 125. To the west is Route 124, and Route 127 lies to the south.

Places of Interest

Mossdeep City in Ruby and Sapphire

Space Center

Main article: Mossdeep Space Center

Mossdeep was the ideal location to build a space center which launches huge rockets because of the stable weather conditions. The Space Center is successfully sending rockets into space. In Emerald, the Space Center plays a big part in the plot, where Team Magma attempts to steal rocket fuel while a rocket begins to launch into space. On the second floor, the player will meet with Steven and battle two Team Magma Grunts.

Steven's house

The possibility of rare stones in the cavern has attracted the attention of Steven Stone, who owns a cottage here where he keeps part of his rock collection. He will leave behind a rare Beldum after the player defeats the Elite Four. Steven will also give the player HM08 (Dive) here in Ruby and Sapphire. In Emerald, however, he will give the player HM08 after defeating Team Magma at the Space Center.

Residential houses

There is a boy living in Mossdeep who will remind Pokémon Trainers of where their Secret Base is located, in case they forget. There is also a Black Belt who will identify which Pokéblocks Pokémon like. In Pokémon Emerald, the player will see a Black Belt on the shore in the western part of the city who will teach a compatible Pokémon DynamicPunch. Moreover, in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire only, a house run by an old man who organizes e-Reader battles for his amusement can be found.

Game Corner

A Game Corner is located here in Pokémon Emerald. It replaces the old man's house in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. It allows players to interact with Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen and other copies of Emerald in two mini-games, Pokémon Jump and Dodrio Berry Picking. Connections are made with the GBA Wireless Adapter.
