The town is best known for being the residence of [[Kurt]], a custom [[Poké Ball]] creator who makes {{i|Poké Ball}}s out of [[Apricorn]]s. He lives in the northwest portion of town on the east edge of [[Ilex Forest]]. Azalea features other notable locations as well, such as the [[Slowpoke Well]]. As such, {{p|Slowpoke}} can be found around the town. The town has two entrances, {{rt|33|Johto}} to the east and [[Ilex Forest]] to the west. | ||

The kiln is owned by a family that handles not only the production of the Charcoal, but also the collection of the necessary materials. To acquire the wood necessary for the Charcoal, the family uses a {{p|Farfetch'd}} to {{m|Cut}} down trees in [[Ilex Forest]]. The wood is then treated in the kiln and turned into Charcoal, which is then sold at the local [[Poké Mart]], making Charcoal the only type-enhancing [[held item]] that can be freely purchased, albeit at a high price. | ||

The Slowpoke Well is a large underground well where Azalea's {{p|Slowpoke}} live and drink. In this small southern [[Johto]] town, Slowpoke are placed in high regard and are revered by the community. According to legends in the town, the {{m|Yawn}} of a {{p|Slowpoke}} causes rain. 400 years ago, a drought in Azalea Town ended right when a Slowpoke yawned. This is shown by the existence of the Slowpoke Well in the northeast corner of town near the entrance to {{rt|33|Johto}}. The small well opening leads to an expansive two-level cave heavily populated with Slowpoke located underneath Azalea. Above the Slowpoke well are a row of Headbutt trees, as well as to the left. The second tree to the left side is a special tree, which can be used to more easily obtain {{p|Heracross}}. | The Slowpoke Well is a large underground well where Azalea's {{p|Slowpoke}} live and drink.

In ''[[EP142|A Shadow of a Drought]]'', {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived at Azalea Town. However, the [[Azalea Gym]] and many of the city's public buildings were closed because of a long-lasting drought. Ash managed to anger the citizens after he stepped on a {{p|Slowpoke}}'s tail, and in their escape, the trio found [[Kurt]], the [[Poké Ball]] expert. Kurt explained that Slowpoke are regarded as sacred in Azalea Town, following a 400-year-old legend in which the Dopey Pokémon brought rain to the area and ended a drought. Slowpoke roam freely throughout Azalea Town, with special Slowpoke warning signs located throughout to warn people to be wary of where they step. After they helped Kurt drive {{TRT}} out of the [[Slowpoke Well]], rain began to fall, causing the main river to flow again and Azalea Town's surrounding landscape became green once again. | |||
{{- | |||
In ''[[EP143|Going Apricorn!]]'', Ash {{an|Brock}}, and {{an|Misty}} delivered the [[GS Ball]] to Kurt and learned about [[Apricorn]] Poké Balls from him. As thanks for their efforts in foiling Team Rocket's plans, Kurt gave them one [[Fast Ball]] each. Kurt's granddaughter [[Maizie]] took the trio on a tour through the nearby Apricorn forest, where Brock managed to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} himself a {{TP|Brock|Pineco}} with his new Fast Ball and the group collected some Apricorns for Kurt to turn into Poké Balls. | |||
Ash challenged and beat the Azalea Gym, earning his second [[Johto League]] [[Badge]], in ''[[EP144|Gettin' The Bugs Out]]''. Before leaving the town, Maizie gave Ash and his friends one more Apricorn Poké Ball each, all made for them by Kurt from the Apricorns they had collected; Ash and Misty both received a [[Lure Ball]] and Brock received a [[Heavy Ball]]. | |||
In ''[[JN032|Time After Time!]]'', [[Goh]] visited Azalea Town for a holiday vacation with his family, something they had also done three years prior to ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''. | |||

Azalea Town first appeared in ''[[PS101|Teddiursa's Picnic]]'', when {{adv|Gold}} arrived there. He was introduced to [[Apricorn]]s by [[Maizie]] after spitting out what he thought was an edible fruit. He also exchanged a different Apricorn for a [[Friend Ball]], created by [[Kurt]]. In [[PS102|the next chapter]], he gave Maizie a {{p|Teddiursa}} that he had caught with the Friend Ball, while {{adv|Silver}} defeated the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s trying to steal [[Slowpoke Tail]]s at the [[Slowpoke Well]]. | |||
In ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]'', {{adv|Bill}} used the [[Pokémon Storage System]] to send countless Pokémon to the Azalea Town [[Pokémon Center]], from which they moved on to [[Ilex Forest]], where they connected with {{adv|Tower duo|Lugia and Ho-Oh}} and relayed them their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s' strong desire for the fighting to stop, freeing the two [[Legendary Pokémon]] from the [[Masked Man]]'s control. | |||

After Bayleef had been treated at the [[Pokémon Center]], Gold met [[Bugsy]], who took him to the [[Azalea Gym]] for a Gym battle. Utilizing Bayleef in the battle against [[Bugsy's Scyther]], Gold was not only able to defeat the [[Gym Leader]] and earn himself a {{badge|Hive}}, but also restore Bayleef's self-confidence. | |||
=== | In ''[[GB07|The Great Search! Let's Rescue The Slowpoke!]]'', Gold met [[Kurt]], who told him that all of the town's {{p|Slowpoke}} had disappeared. The culprits behind this eventually turned out to be [[Team Rocket]], whom Gold and Kurt confronted at the [[Slowpoke Well]]. After Team Rocket had been driven away and the Slowpoke had been rescued from the flooding well, Kurt gave Gold a [[Level Ball]] as a sign of gratitude. | ||
