'''Pokémopolis''' (Japanese: '''ポケモニア''' ''Pokémonia'') is an ancient civilization in close proximity to [[Pallet Town]]. It made its only anime appearance in ''[[EP072|The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis]]''. | |||
==Description== | |||
It was discovered by accident when {{Ash}} was battling [[Brock's Vulpix]] with his {{AP|Pikachu}}; {{an|Jigglypuff}} landed between the two Pokémon as they were preparing to attack each other during a training battle and were forced to deflect their attacks. Although the two were the ones who uncovered it, an archaeologist named [[Eve]] took credit for finding it, and was honored for it. | It was discovered by accident when {{Ash}} was battling [[Brock's Vulpix]] with his {{AP|Pikachu}}; {{an|Jigglypuff}} landed between the two Pokémon as they were preparing to attack each other during a training battle and were forced to deflect their attacks.

Among the artifacts found in the ruins of Pokémopolis were several odd-shaped objects. As it turns out, those objects were ancient [[Poké Ball]]s, and inside of them were a [[Giant Pokémon|giant]] {{p|Alakazam}} and {{p|Gengar}}. The two were released, and it appeared they were going to have an epic battle on the spot. | Among the artifacts found in the ruins of Pokémopolis were several odd-shaped objects.

Using {{m|Sing}}, it made the other two giants fall into a deep sleep. Soon afterward, all three were put safely back into their ancient Poké Balls. Eve said she would continue efforts to uncover how the ancient structures operated. | ||

A stone tablet discovered nearby contains an ancient script that was deciphered by [[Eve]]. | |||
:''Beware the two great powers of destruction, | |||
:''the shadow of the dark device will grapple with the prisoner of the unearthly urn. | |||
:''The sacred city will be no more as day is swallowed up by night. | |||
:''Darker still for you when they return to lay waste to the world, | |||
:''but no human knows the secret to soothe the powers and guide them back to the shadow world. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
[[File:Recurring stone tablet.png|thumb|right|The recurring stone tablet]] | |||
* Pokémopolis is one of two known ancient civilizations in [[Kanto]]. The other is [[Pokélantis]] which happens to be in the same area. | |||
* A stone tablet very similar to the one that Eve deciphers appears in the episode ''[[AG002|A Ruin with a View]]''. It shows up in the possession of [[Professor Alden]], who learns from it the way to get into the stone chamber of the [[Oldale Ruins]]. | |||
* The name Pokémopolis could be a portmanteau of the words "Pokémon" and "{{wp|Acropolis}}", an ancient Greek term for a city on elevated ground. | |||
