Gardenia Town

Gardenia Town (くちなしタウン, Kuchinashi Town) is a small town located north of Freesia Town off of Hora Route 2. It is known as the "city of flowers." Pokémon Trainers come to Gardenia Town for two reasons; to face the first gym of the Hora League to win the Garden Badge from the Gym Leaders, and to participate in the local Pokémon Contest. Most beginning coordinators begin their contest careers here. If Ninetales was spotted in the area at night, the town's residents usually stay out of the streets.
