'''Twinleaf Town''' (Japanese: '''フタバタウン''' ''Futaba Town'') is situated in the southwestern part of the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]].

Twinleaf is the hometown of the {{player}} and their [[rival]], {{ga|Barry}}, and the first town known to the player in the games. It is also the nearest town to [[Lake Verity]], referred to by residents as their local lake. North of the town lies {{rt|201|Sinnoh}}, a junction which leads to [[Verity Lakefront]] to the west, and [[Sandgem Town]] to the east.

==In the anime==
[[File:Twinleaf Town anime.png|thumb|350px|Twinleaf Town in the anime]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Twinleaf Town is the [[hometown]] of {{an|Dawn}}, her [[mother]] [[Johanna]], and her childhood friend and [[rival]] {{si|Kenny}}; and {{an|Barry}} and his father [[Palmer]]. [[Izzy and Cara|Izzy, Cara]], and [[Sayer]] also live there. It first appeared in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]'', where Dawn left town to go to [[Professor Rowan]]'s laboratory in [[Sandgem Town]] to receive her [[first partner Pokémon]] and begin her {{pkmn|journey}}. [[Top Coordinator]] Johanna offers a course in town for young {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s. She has a battlefield behind her house for instructing her students, where she teaches them about the basics of [[Pokémon Contest]]s, and gives them [[Appeal|performance]] tips and [[Contest Battle]] techniques. [[Noelle]] is one of her students.
Dawn returned for [[Twinleaf Festival|the town's annual festival]] in ''[[DP138|Strategy Begins at Home!]]''. {{ashfr|The group}} spent four episodes in Twinleaf, where they, together with Barry, participated in the [[Festival Battle Challenge]]. Ash eventually won the tournament, thus earning the chance to {{pkmn|battle}} Palmer, the head of [[Sinnoh]]'s {{si|Battle Tower}}. However, the [[Frontier Brain]] proved to be much stronger than him and defeated him. During the festival, Twinleaf was also visited by {{an|Professor Oak}}, who gave a lecture on "the interrelation of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and [[Evolution stone]]s" at the town's auditorium.
The town was shown again in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'', where the group arrived there after resuming their journey through [[Sinnoh]]. At the end of the episode, Ash and {{an|Brock}} boarded a [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|ship]] sailing towards the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. As observed by Ash, Twinleaf Town is very similar to [[Pallet Town]], having dirt trails and wide, open grass fields.
In ''[[JN089|The Gates of Warp!]]'', Dawn and [[Goh]] visited an [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Twinleaf Town, where they met [[Alternate World Dawn|Dawn's alternate world counterpart]], who is an accomplished {{pkmn|Trainer}} who had achieved the runner-up placement in the [[Sinnoh League]] {{pkmn|League Conference|tournament}}. The three then headed to [[Sandgem Town]] together.
In ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'', which is set in an alternate continuity from the main series, Twinleaf Town is the hometown of [[Verity]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Diamond house.png|thumb|250px|Twinleaf Town in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Twinleaf Town is the [[hometown]] of {{adv|Diamond}}, his mother [[Johanna]], {{adv|Pearl}}, and supposedly his father [[Palmer]]. According to [[Rad Rickshaw]], koshipikari rice (a {{wp|portmanteau}} of ''{{wp|koshihikari}}'' and ''pika'') can only be found here.
===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
In ''[[PS395|Stopping Sableye]]'', Diamond returned to Twinleaf Town on his way to protect {{DL|Lake guardians (Adventures)|Mesprit}} at [[Lake Verity]] from [[Team Galactic]]. As he stopped by at his home, he found a note left by his mother, informing him that she had left to gather {{Berries}} at Lake Verity. Alarmed, Diamond immediately headed to the lake to alert his mother of the impending danger.
===={{MangaArc|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}====
Twinleaf Town made a cameo in ''[[PS460|All About Arceus IX]]'', depicting the beginning of the ''Diamond & Pearl'' arc from Johanna's perspective.
