Canalave City: Difference between revisions

'''Canalave City''' (Japanese: '''ミオシティ''' ''Mio City'') is a city in the [[region]] of [[Sinnoh]]. Canalave City is a port city that is bisected by a canal which is crossed by a small drawbridge. It has an air of exotic and foreign culture. Large ships are moored at the piers. In the old days, the port used to be a hub of cargo transportation. The [[Move Deleter]] is in a house on the east side of town. The [[Canalave Library]] has many books on [[Sinnoh myths]]. The ferry in the canal will take people out to [[Iron Island]] and [[Fullmoon Island]] and sometimes [[Newmoon Island]].

The Canalave Library is found in the northwestern side of Canalave City. It is the only library in [[Sinnoh]] and it has shelves of books, containing [[Sinnoh myths|the myths of Sinnoh]]. It is the place the player, the {{ga|Barry|rival}}, {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}}, and [[Professor Rowan]] meet up before the player goes to [[Lake Valor]].

He is a very forgetful man, and lives alone. For no charge, the Move Deleter will make a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} forget a [[move]] it knows. This is the only way for a Pokémon to forget [[HM]] moves such as {{m|Cut}} or {{m|Fly}}. In order to delete an HM move, one must first have another Pokémon with that same move in order for it to be deleted. This is done so that a player will not get stuck in an area where an HM move is required to continue. In addition, a Pokémon's move will not be forgotten if it is the only move it knows.

[[File:Canalave City anime.png|200px|thumb|right|Canalave City in the anime]]

In the anime, Canalave City is located on a chain of islands connected by bridges. {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr}} first arrive in Canalave City with {{an|Barry}} via a blimp in ''[[DP103|Jumping Rocket Ship!]]'', where the Ash, his friends, {{TRT}} and their Pokémon become scattered all over the city. The city is shown to be full of confusing alleyways with many dead-ends, as well as many bridges and canals to allow boats to travel. The city also has Canalave Harbor, a large pier that allows trainers to travel to many places by boat, including [[Iron Island]], [[Fullmoon Island]] and [[Chocovine Town]]. A large bridge crosses the Harbor which can open up to allow larger boats beneath it. On top, an underground sewer is also seen to lead to the harbor. The islands are also shown to contain many areas of forestland.

In ''[[DP104|Sleepless In Pre-Battle!]]'', it is revealed that {{p|Darkrai}} visits the city once a year and that usually {{p|Cresselia}} drives it away. However, the Darkrai had come earlier than usual due to Team Rocket's Nightmare Machine causing all the locals to have nightmares. As a result, even the busiest shopping districts had become deserted.  

In ''[[DP105|Get Your Rotom Running!]]'', Ash and his friends visit [[Old Chateau]] where they befriend a {{p|Rotom}} which had taken residence due to the Chateau being closed down from a recent thunderstorm. Ash and his friends continue to stay in the city in the [[DP106|next episode]], where Ash trains for his next Gym battle and Dawn attempts to battle with her {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine}} for the first time.  

In ''[[DP107|Ancient Family Matters!]]'', [[Byron]] returns from Iron Island, however, Ash still cannot have his battle as Byron is quarrelling with his son [[Roark]]. Finally, in ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', Ash battles Byron and wins, earning him his sixth badge. In the [[DP109|next episode]], a group of {{p|Wailord}} prevent boats leaving Canalave Harbor. Ash helps to free a trapped {{p|Wailmer}} out of the underground sewer, allowing the Wailord to swim out. In ''[[DP110|Steeling Peace of Mind!]]'', Ash and his friends leave Canalave City for Iron Island after receiving an urgent phone call from Barry.

* When the Member's Card is obtained via event for the first time, the Harbor Inn's slogan temporarily says ''A Roost for Restless Sailors. "Enjoy sweet dreams in our sumptous beds!"''. After either defeating or catching Darkrai, the Inn's slogan reverts back to its original unreadable phrase.
