'''Majolica Town''' (Japanese: '''カワラケタウン''' ''Kawarake Town'') is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive location in [[Sinnoh]] featured in ''[[DP102|A Shield with a Twist!]]''.
'''Majolica Town''' (Japanese: '''カワラケタウン''' ''Kawarake Town'') is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive location in [[Sinnoh]]. It is a small port town surrounded by a giant [[forest]]. Like many other {{cat|towns}} in the [[region]], it is home to a [[Contest Hall]], attracting many [[Pokémon Coordinator]]s on a {{pkmn|journey}} to collect the five needed [[Ribbon]]s to enter the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]].


[[Jessie]], with her {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, won the Majolica {{pkmn|Contest}}, which was held as a fund-raiser.

It was featured in ''[[DP102|A Shield with a Twist!]]'', in which {{TRT}} was shown walking the streets of Majolica Town when [[James]] and {{MTR}} spotted a poster for a [[Pokémon Contest]] to be held later that day. They talked about it with [[Jessie]] and she decided to participate, rushing to the Contest Hall and leaving them behind. The competition was held to help raise funds for the town's revitalization project.


==Trivia==
[[Jessilina]] entered the Majolica Contest in hopes of winning her second Contest Ribbon. In the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]], she used her {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}. After being sent out of her [[Poké Ball]] with a [[Seal|Heart Seal]], Yanmega was shown using {{m|Silver Wind}} to blow the ribbons out of Jessilina's hair to let if flow with the wind, fascinating the members of the audience.
* The Japanese name of this town is derived from the 河原決明 ''kawaraketsumei'', ''{{wp|Chamaecrista}}''. The English name is derived from a type of {{wp|majolica|ceramics}}, a possible reference to 土器 ''kawarake'' (earthenware).


===In other languages===
The [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] was not shown, but Jessilina emerged victorious. After Jessilina's victory, the Chief of the Pokémon Activities Committee, [[Raoul Contesta]], awarded her with the coveted Majolica Ribbon while the other contestants were shown on stage applauding her.
