Squallville (Japanese: ウインドタウン Wind Town) is an animated series-exclusive location in the Sinnoh region. Strong wind currents frequently blow through the area, hence its name. It is also surrounded by mountains and cliffs.
It was featured in Pursuing a Lofty Goal!. A PokéRinger competition was held in the town in which Ash, Paul, and James competed. Ash won the competition, with his Staravia evolving into Staraptor.
Trivia
- This is one of the very few locations created before the release of Pokémon Sword and Shield that is a town or city that does not end in "Town", "City", or "Village".
