'''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 [[Pokémon world]]. In contrast to [[Castelia City]], which is the heart of business and economy in the Unova 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.

===Battle Institute===
[[File:Battle Institute outside BW.jpg|230px|thumb|Outside the Battle Institute]]
{{main|Battle Institute}}
[[File:Battle Institute inside BW.jpg|230px|thumb|Inside the Battle Institute]]
The Battle Institute (Japanese: '''トライアルハウス''' ''Trial House'') is a building just left of the Pokémon Center. The Trainers met here are the same ones that battle in the Battle Subway<!--, and the same Pokémon banned from the Battle Subway are banned from entering here, as well-->. The player can opt to fight five consecutive mock battles—called the Battle Test—of either Single Battles (requiring three Pokémon) or Double Battles (requiring four Pokémon). When battling, all Pokémon are auto-leveled to 50, whether they were below in level or above. Bag items are not permitted to be used. At the end of the fifth battle, the player is awarded a score and a rank.
 
In Black 2 and White 2, the Battle Institute can only be accessed after defeating the Elite Four and Champion. If the player tries to access it before that point, an Ace Trainer will exit the institute and block the entrance, telling the player that they must become the Champion before they can enter. Unlike the Battle Subway, the Battle Institute does not require the player to save the game before participating.
 
Each battle grows in difficulty, starting with pre-evolved Pokémon and potentially fighting [[legendary Pokémon]] by the end and the fourth round has players dealing with lots of [[Pseudo-Legendary]] Pokemon like [[Salamence]]. Once the Battle Test begins, there is no quitting; losing one battle means continuing to the next, until all five battles are complete. The 'Run' command acts as a battle forfeit measure for that battle only. If it is not the fifth battle, the player's forfeit will trigger the next battle.
 
The scoring system is:
{| class="roundy" style="text-align:center; background: #{{electric color light}}; border: 3px solid #{{electric color dark}};"
|-

| style="background: #FFFFFF; {{roundybr|5px}}" | 7
|}
 
Each battle increases the max points that can be earned, meaning the max amounts of points one can earn in the first battle is lower than the max points one can earn in the last. Points are awarded depending on how many battles are won (no points are awarded for lost battles) and how well the player beats the opponent; fainted teammates count against the final score, as does damage taken.
 
The scoring breakdown is as follows:
* 1000 points per battle won
* 80 points per opposing Pokémon fainted
* 5 points per switch
* 1 point per super-effective attack
* 4 points per opposing attack that is rendered ineffective (either from type immunities, {{a|Levitate}}, or a status attack that the Pokémon is immune to due to its type)
* 2 points per opposing attack that is rendered not very effective
* 30 points if a battle was won with the opposing side taking at least one turn, 15 points if a battle was won without the opposing side taking a turn
* -80 points per Pokémon fainted
* -10 points per turn
* -10 points per ineffective attack against the opponent (on the same basis as the above)
* -2 points per resisted attack against the opponent
* 1 point per percent of HP remaining after each battle


===Rondez-View Ferris Wheel===
===Rondez-View Ferris Wheel===
The Rondez-View Ferris Wheel is a couples-only Ferris wheel.
The Rondez-View Ferris Wheel is a couples-only Ferris wheel.


Trainers may be battled here daily; the Trainer varies with the season and the gender of the player. 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 and not summer as his name corresponds to and did originally. With the exception of Black and White's Preschooler Winter, the English names do not relate to the seasons.

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.


After the battle, the Trainer will accompany the player on the wheel. In the Japanese version, the conversations on the Ferris wheel are laced with {{wp|double entendre}}s. In the Japanese versions of Black 2 and White 2, {{tc|Nursery Aide}} Enatsu (June in English) admits to being a man disguised as a woman in order to be a Nursery Aide, but this dialogue is cut from the English games.

In {{game|Black and White|s}}, [[N]] is battled here as part of the main storyline. In {{game|Black 2 and White 2|s}}, after defeating the Elite Four, special non-battelable characters will appear on certain days every week prior to the trainers that would normally be there; with [[Hugh|the player's rival]] appearing on Tuesdays, [[Bianca]] appearing on Wednesdays, N appearing on Fridays and [[Cheren]] appearing on Saturdays. After meeting certain requirements, [[Yancy]]{{tt|*|If the player's gender is male}}/[[Curtis]]{{tt|*|If the player's gender is female}} can be met in front of the Ferris wheel to [[In-game trade|trade]] with the player daily. 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 manga==
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.

* Nimbasa's Japanese motto is {{tt|稲妻きらめく　輝きの街|Shining city where lightning sparkles}}.

* Nimbasa City is the only known city in the [[Pokémon world]] to feature arenas for human sporting events and an amusement park.
* Nimbasa City is the only known city in the [[Pokémon world]] to feature arenas for human sporting events and an amusement park.
* Since Unova is based on New York City, it's possible that Nimbasa City is meant to represent Coney Island.  Coney Island has an amusement park on it, is home to one of New York's largest subway stations (which like Gear Station in Nimbasa City, is connected to all of the subway lines in the city), and (being part of Brooklyn) it's relatively close to some of New York's professional sports venues.  Nimbasa City is not on an island, but it is mostly surrounded by water
* There is a large {{p|Pikachu}} figure in the amusement park, even though Pikachu are not native to Unova. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, a Pichu is also shown next to it.
