'''N's Castle''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|Ｎの城|Ｎのしろ}}''' ''N's Castle'') is the location where {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|Bl}} or {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}} can be {{pkmn2|caught}}. It is [[Team Plasma]]'s supreme headquarters, and is owned by [[N]].

On the second floor, a member of the [[Shadow Triad]] directs the player to a room where two women await them, introducing themselves as [[Anthea and Concordia]]. Anthea heals the player's party and Concordia tells the player about [[N]]'s childhood. A room on the third floor contains a [[PC]] that will allow the player to rearrange the party as well. In the same room, scientists mention that now, they could infiltrate the Pokémon Storage System to even release the Pokémon from Trainers' PC Boxes. Team Plasma Grunts are scattered about the other rooms of the building; however, unlike their other encounters, they will not fight, instead celebrating victory or thinking of saying goodbye to their Pokémon. One of these Grunts will allow the player to return to the Pokémon League [[Pokémon Center]], while another Grunt there will transport the player back to the castle, as the player cannot traverse through the Pokémon League again to get there.

N's room resides on the fourth floor. It is decorated in a childish manner, with cloud wallpaper and floor covering as well as there being many toys strewn about the area, many of which can be interacted with. Some of them show sign of recent usage (such as the train set) and some of which denote usage by Pokémon as well as humans, such as the skating ramp which upon inspection is covered in claw marks and scratches. There is a home basketball hoop installed on the west wall, before which lies a basketball with the word "Harmonia" (N and Ghetsis's surname) inscribed on it.

During the battle with N, he uses the Legendary Pokémon opposite to the one caught by the player. After N is defeated, the player must battle [[Ghetsis]], who reveals that he was manipulating N and Team Plasma in order to achieve his own goals. Once Ghetsis has been defeated, the castle is no longer accessible, making the items inside [[Permanently missable items|inaccessible]] as well.

The ruins of N's Castle can be accessed from a large cavern that is located within {{OBP|Victory Road|Black 2 and White 2}}. However, the remnants of the castle can only be accessed after the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]].

After the player has entered the Hall of Fame, N's {{p|Zoroark}} stops blocking the path that leads to the ruins of N's Castle on {{OBP|Victory Road|Black 2 and White 2}} and leads the player there. After entering the castle, the player and N walk around the ruins that used to be N's Castle, including N's room and the castle's throne room. In the throne room, N asks the player to battle him and his Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}. After the player defeats him, N reverts his dragon to its dormant state—the [[Dark Stone]]{{sup/5|B2}}/[[Light Stone]]{{sup/5|W2}}—and gives it to the player to summon Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} at Dragonspiral Tower to catch.

==In the anime==

[[File:N Castle anime.png|thumb|250px|N's Castle in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]

N's Castle was first seen in a flashback in ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]''. When {{Ash}} told {{an|N}} how he and {{ashfr}} were trying to find {{p|Reshiram}}, N had a flashback of his youth, a moment when he had been at his castle, which, along with its surroundings, had been on fire. He saw Reshiram appearing before him, and kept looking at it as it flew away.

In the anime, the castle is described as a mansion and is less grand in appearance than it is in the games.

[[File:N Castle PG.png|thumb|250px|N's Castle in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]

N's Castle appeared in ''[[PG13|The Uprising]]''. Like in {{game|Black and White|s}}, it rose from the ground around the {{un|Pokémon League}}, with the [[Seven Sages]] standing at the tops of the rising towers. [[Iris]] started battling the army of {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s coming out of the castle and was soon joined by most of the other Unova Gym Leaders.
