The city is guarded by the | The city is guarded by the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{OBP|Latias|M05}} and {{OBP|Latios|M05}}, which are both commemorated in the city's Guardian Columns. In the distant past, the pair saved Alto Mare from the evils of a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and their rampaging Pokémon {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}} who sought to flood the city. The city gained its name of Alto Mare, which means "high sea", from this very event. | ||
Many other species of Pokémon can be found in Alto Mare, including {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Yanma}}, {{p|Murkrow}}, {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Chinchou}} and {{p|Remoraid}}. | |||

===Places of interest=== | |||
====Alto Mare Museum==== | |||
The Alto Mare Museum exhibits the [[Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare]] (DMA). The [[Fossil]]s of Pokémon that attacked Alto Mare in the past, {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}}, can also be seen on the museum's floor. [[Lorenzo]] and his granddaughter, {{OBP|Bianca|M05}}, are the caretakers of the museum. | |||
====Secret Garden==== | |||
{{main|Secret Garden (location)|Secret Garden}} | |||
The Secret Garden is where Latias and Latios reside and it is located near the museum. Located in a small pond is the [[Soul Dew]]. If removed, it can be used to control the DMA, but this will cause all the water to drain from the city. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the two {{pkmn|category|Eon Pokémon}} to protect the Soul Dew. | |||
