'''Nimbasa City''' (Japanese: '''ライモンシティ''' ''Raimon City'') is a city located in central [[Unova]]. There are three routes connecting to it: to the south of the city is {{rt|4|Unova}} and the vast [[Desert Resort]], to the west is {{rt|5|Unova}}, and to the east is {{rt|16|Unova}}.

Nimbasa City is the most populous city in the Unova region and the second most populous in the Pokémon World, behind [[Kalos]]'s [[Lumiose City]]. In contrast to [[Castelia City]], which is the heart of business and economy in the region, Nimbasa serves as the heart of leisure and entertainment. Nimbasa City is well known for its grand-scale landmarks such as the [[Pokémon Musical|Musical Theater]], [[Battle Subway|Gear Station]], [[Big Stadium and Small Court]], Battle Institute, and the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel and amusement park. | ||

The Trainer's Japanese names are related to the season they appear in; however, in {{game|Black and White|s|Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Hiker Natsumi (Andy in English) appears in autumn even though his name contains the Japanese word for summer (Natsu). The English names also occasionally relate to the seasons, with some being directly named after months or containing them (like ''May''a and ''August''ine). Other names are not directly linked to the seasons, but have some relation to them such as Aurora being battleble in autumn like it's real life counterpart and Persephone being named after the Greek goddess who would return to the earth in spring. | ||

In the occurrence that both Yancy/Curtis and a special character are at the Ferris wheel at the same time, then the former will get priority and will remain there until after being interacted with. The special character will appear afterwards, followed by a standard trainer. | ||

In the {{chap|Black & White}} of [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Black}} arrived in Nimbasa City with {{adv|White}}. The [[Pokémon Musical]] Theater's construction had just been completed when they arrived, and White immediately resumed work on her grand idea, preparing everyone involved for the opening ceremony. After the Nimbasa City Gym Leader [[Elesa]] did her bit in the opening ceremony, she led Black towards her Gym for their Gym battle. Black did win his battle with Elesa, and spent the rest of the evening looking for White. White was found by [[Marshal]] of the Elite Four, who handed White to Black and excused himself. After taking White to the hospital to recover, Black then heard about what White had been through. After blaming himself for not asking Marshal more about the [[White (Adventures)#Amanda|Servine]] that was following White, Black met a [[Baker (Trainer class)|Baker]] named Chris, who showed the yet-to-be-opened Battle Subway to Black and White. The next day, White had made the decision to trial the Battle Subway, and after catching [[White (Adventures)#Darling|her first Pokémon]], she bid farewell to Black, but not before Black loaned [[Black (Adventures)#Brav|his Braviary]] to her, as Black knew that she had to bring three Pokémon with her. | |||
