[[Wally]] is sent to live here with his aunt, uncle, and cousin [[Wanda]] in order to improve his health. The town features a [[Contest Hall]] in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, as well as in their [[Generation VI]] [[remake]]s, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]].

There are two ways out of Verdanturf. To the east is {{rt|117|Hoenn}} towards [[Mauville City]]. To the north is the [[Rusturf Tunnel]], which was being constructed to link [[Rustboro City]] and Verdanturf. However, the construction disturbed the local {{p|Whismur}} who lived in the tunnel, and so it was canceled. Wanda's boyfriend tried to dig the tunnel himself, but was unable to do it. After the [[player character]] of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} gets the {{Badge|Dynamo}}, he or she can use {{m|Rock Smash}} to complete the tunnel and open a path to {{rt|116|Hoenn}}.

[[File:Verdanturf Town anime.png|thumb|Verdanturf Contest Hall in the anime]]
{{Ash}}, [[Max]], {{an|May}} and {{an|Brock}} arrived in Verdanturf Town on their way to [[Petalburg City]]. May competed in the Verdanturf Pokémon Contest in ''[[AG061|Disaster of Disguise]]'' and ''[[AG062|Disguise Da Limit!]]'' and met up and competed with a mysterious {{pkmn|Coordinator}} called "[[Timmy Grimm|The Phantom]]". In the anime, Verdanturf has shown to have a fairly luxurious neighborhood, and appears much larger than it does in the games.
In the [[Pokémon anime]], Verdanturf Town was shown to have a fairly luxurious neighborhood. It is the [[hometown]] of [[Morrison]], a [[Pokémon Trainer]] and one of Ash's [[rival]]s in the [[Ever Grande Conference]]. Among the town's residents are [[Timmy Grimm]] and his parents, [[Mrs. Grimm]] and [[Tommy Grimm]].
 
{{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and {{an|Brock}} arrived in Verdanturf Town in ''[[AG061|Disaster of Disguise]]'', where they met up with [[Drew]] again. Drew was in Verdanturf to compete in the town's [[Pokémon Contest]]. However, after his {{TP|Drew|Roselia}} was injured in a {{pkmn|battle}} against Timmy's {{p|Dusclops}}, he decided it would be better not to participate.
 
In ''[[AG062|Disguise Da Limit!]]'', May entered the Verdanturf Contest hoping to win her second [[Ribbon]]. Timmy and [[Jessie]], disguised as The Phantom and Jesselana, respectively, were also among the competing {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s. In the [[Appeal|Appeals Round]], [[May's Skitty]] failed to deliver a successful {{m|Blizzard}} [[move|attack]]. Despite this, she was able to save her performance by juggling with {{m|Double Slap}} just like [[Dr. Abby]] taught her in ''[[AG060|Delcatty Got Your Tongue]]'', advancing May to the [[Contest Battle]]s.
 
After defeating [[Stefano]], May battled Timmy in the final round. Timmy proved to be a talented Coordinator and a tough opponent for May, as he had some good [[Contest combination]]s up his sleeve. This led May to lose a large amount of points. However, her Skitty managed to master the move Blizzard and use it against Dusclops, [[Fainting|knocking it out]]. The [[Raoul Contesta|three]] [[Mr. Sukizo|Contest]] [[Nurse Joy|judges]] then called Battle Off and May was declared the winner, receiving the coveted Verdanturf Ribbon.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* The [[Poké Mart]] of this town is the only one in Hoenn where {{DL|Poké Ball|Nest Ball}}s can be purchased.
* In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, a girl in the [[Poké Mart]] sings a short song when talked to, which goes: ''Ball, Ball, {{ball|Nest}}. ♪ Ball, Ball, {{ball|Luxury}}. '' Afterwards, she says that she learned the song from "a strange person in red clothes" when she visited the [[Kalos]] region once. This is likely a reference to the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}} who can be battled at the [[Poké Ball Factory]] in {{g|X and Y}} and sings a similar song before the battle.
* Verdanturf's Japanese motto is {{tt|くさの においの かぜふく こうげん|Kusa no nioi no kaze fuku kougen}} ''"The highlands where the grass-scented wind blows"''.
