'''Anville Town''' (Japanese: '''カナワタウン''' ''Kanawa Town'') is situated in the northwestern part of the Unova region. It is accessed by riding the [[Battle Subway]]'s Anville line (shown brown on the subway map) from Gear Station in [[Nimbasa City]]; no battles are required to be able to go to this town. On the weekends, some {{pkmn|Trainer}}s come to this town to exchange items.

==Lost Pansage==
==Lost Pansage==
In Black 2 and White 2, the {{tc|School Kid}} standing near the entrance has lost her {{p|Pansage}}. Her Pansage is being kept by a {{tc|Depot Agent}} in front of the {{DL|Pokémon Musical|Musical Theater}} in [[Nimbasa City]]. If the {{player}} talks to the Depot Agent after finding out about the lost Pansage, he will return it. When the player returns to Anville Town and talks to the girl, who now has her Pokémon back, she will give the player a [[BrightPowder]] and say that a green-haired guy (implied to be [[N]]) told her that her Pansage's dream is to become a railroad conductor.

Anville Town is known for its connection with locomotives, and every day a different train engine can be found on the turntable in front of the town's {{wp|roundhouse}}, most of them a part of the Battle Subway system of trains. A {{tc|Worker}} on the bridge will explain their origins, inner-workings, and/or capabilities.

| Today's train car is a Hyperspeed Train! It runs faster than a rocket! It runs quieter than an air conditioner! I can see! I can see it! That lovely smooth curve! Ah, I wish I could reach out and touch it! I can see it so clearly! But I cannot touch the Hyperspeed Train! It really is hyper technology! As you can see, we engineers are always seriously dreaming that someday the dream will become a reality!

|This is a Single Train! It's the oldest train in the Battle Subway. It's for a loop line to go around the Unova region! Do you know Tubeline Bridge? The train that runs on it is this Single Train.

|This Super Single Train is a new mass-produced car! It's an environmentally friendly train, because they revised all the parts to drastically reduce power consumption! Newer trains have to be built in a way that's both functional and environmentally friendly. Compared to the past, they've improved significantly.

|This car is a Double Train! This is a mass-produced car from a decade ago! Compared to a Single Train, the number of parts was reduced so it could be built for a lower cost. The number of parts influences the budget and construction time. The streamlined and beautiful design of the Double Train is still valued today.

It uses the same train car as a Super Single Train. The only difference is the appearance. It is a superb train car that will go down in the history of the Battle Subway!

|This train car is a Super Multi Train! This is the latest train car! Improved acceleration and deceleration! Automated train-car controls! It's full of cutting-edge technologies. Also, a regeneration brake system, a car-body tilting system, a whatchamacallit system, a thingamabob system... I don't remember all the details, but it's just a big festival of all the latest technology!

|This train car is a Wi-Fi Train! It is the fastest long-distance high-speed train in the Battle Subway! This is called a pendulum car. Its body tilts while going around curves, so it can run without slowing down! Faster! Farther! Our engineers' spirits are infused in it!

|As you know, this is a local train to Anville Town! Isn't it just so cute? This one is a little slow and heavy. When it runs, the whole train sways. The train car is the same model as a Single Train. Because it is an old train car, I hear the maintenance is hard, but it's the one I always ride, because I loved it as a kid!

|This train car is the kind that ran a long time ago. Compared to contemporary train cars, it has more parts, so I heard it was difficult to build. The old train cars built with lots of small parts have their own unique beauty and attract a lot of fans. Those cars no longer run in the Battle Subway, but I hear they're still used in a faraway region. Ah... I'd love to be on that train!
