Michina Town is a riverside town surrounded by flourishing nature. The town's centerpiece is the Michīna Ruins.
Thousands of years ago, Michina Town was a desolate place, which was nothing but a wasteland. But the [[Jewel of Life]]'s power that {{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}} gave [[Damos]] made the town's soil rich and fertile. Then Damos constructed the town's ruins in order to praise Arceus's kindness.
