On the second floor of Hotel Coumarine, a group of travelers will rotate in and out of the rooms. Any of the travelers not at Hotel Coumarine on one day may be found at the hotels in Camphrier Town, Ambrette Town, Cyllage City, Geosenge Town, and Couriway Town.
Six travelers will rotate among the first room on a six-day cycle: a Hiker, a Waiter, a Madame, a Maid, a male Tourist, and a Backpacker (in that order); as the player talks to these travelers on different days (at any hotel), they will gradually open up to the player. A female Tourist who gives out Ribbons will also occupy the second room every Sunday and Thursday.
A monorail will take the player between the seaside and hillcrest halves of the city.
Hillcrest cliff
In the hillcrest side of town, after defeating the Champion, Tierno can be found on the cliffs overlooking the monorail tracks. Each day, he will ask to see a Pokémon with a dance move, asking for a specific one at random. If the player shows him one, he will give a Heart Scale.
These items can be obtained from the rotating guests appearing at Hotel Coumarine, provided the player has met the same guest on three other occasions. These guests can be met at any hotel located outside of Lumiose City.
If the player is speaking to the Hiker or Maid on the second floor of Hotel Coumarine for the fourth time, they will offer to trade the player a Magikarp or Eevee (respectively).
A colored background means that the Pokémon can be found in this location in the specified game. A white background with a colored letter means that the Pokémon cannot be found here.
In the anime, Coumarine City is very much like its in-game counterpart. The city is divided into two sections that are connected by a monorail, but it is also possible to travel between them without the monorail by way of a path that goes over a hill that is largely devoted to Ramos's Grass-typePokémon ranch. Also, the Pokémon Center is located in the southern part of the city.
Ash and his friends arrived in Coumarine in Thawing an Icy Panic!, where they met the Leader of the Coumarine Gym, Ramos, after Clemont accidentally crashed through the gate of his ranch and startled his Victreebel. Later on, a snowstorm was caused by a Vanillish and a Vanilluxe. The two Ice-type Pokémon were angry because their friend Vanillite had been captured by Team Rocket. Fortunately, Ramos was able to calm them down by using his Jumpluff and Sunflora to melt the snow before assisting Ash and his friends in defeating Team Rocket.
In A Showcase Debut!, Serena and Jessie made their debut as Pokémon Performers in the town's Pokémon Showcase Rookie Class. However, they both lost in the Theme Performance. Shauna, who also entered the event, was the most voted Performer of the round and was declared the winner of the competition. The next day, Serena decided to change her look by shortening her hair and changing her outfit. After the group's stay in Coumarine City, they left for Ash's Gym battle with Clemont at the Lumiose Gym.
Coumarine City is the only city or town in the Pokémon world to consist of two geographically separate sections.
Coumarine City is the only location that has a hotel where Mr. Bonding is instead found in the Pokémon Center. This is because the Coumarine Hotel room where Mr. Bonding would appear is occupied by the Game Director.
Origin
Coumarine City's real-life counterpart is likely Le Havre, the largest port in northern France.
