Welcome to Gaia! ::

DESCRIPTION -
Ever Grande City serves as the capital for the Pokémon League in the Hoenn region. It is the final destination for Pokémon Trainers competing in Hoenn League competitions against the Elite Four. This is the where the powerful Elite Four battle against Trainers in a final showdown of becoming a master Pokémon trainer, who may be challenged after defeating all eight Gym Leaders of this southern region. It is also the location of the Ever Grande Conference.

The Elite Four must be battled consecutively, with breaks to the Pokémon Center prohibited. Trainers are unable to go back or return to previous rooms. The only way to open the door and progress through each room is to defeat the Elite Four member of that room. Each member of the Elite Four is stronger than the previous member, with each specializing in a different type.

LOCATION -
Ever Grande City is located in eastern Hoenn, serving as the region's eastern-most point.

PEOPLE -
People here are friendly, but combative and ready to test their strength. After all, the Elite Four are here and awaiting challengers. Be ready for anything and everything in this place.

RESOURCES/EVENTS/PLACES OF INTEREST -
Elite Four - This is why you've come here, most likely. The Elite Four pokemon trainers in the entire league are here to face challengers. Many have tried and failed to defeat these men and women, will you succeed where they have failed?

Champion Battle - Defeating the Elite Four is no small task, but assuming you do, you shall face the Champion. The Champion from Hoenn, Steven Stone, has proven his talent by defeating the Elite Four. Your pokemon will be tired and worn down from previous fights. Do you and your pokemon have what it takes to defeat him?

Hall of Fame - This room has changed since its inception. Rather than a lonely room at the end of the road, it is now a building with a massive database of all the trainers that have defeated, become, or otherwise been a part of the Elite Four or the Champion standings. If you win, your name shall be inscribed here for visitors and eager young trainers to see for generations. The Hall of Fame will record all Trainers' names, and Pokémon team.

Pokemon Center - Those that fail the test of the Elite Four and Champion need to lick their wounds somewhere! The friendly faces at the pokemon center will attempt to patch up tired pokemon and wounded egos. The first problem is easily solved, the second is all up to the will and determination of the trainer.

PokeMart - As with all major facilities, Ever Grande has a rather large and extensive Pokemon Mart. The finest PokeBalls, healing items, and status-shaking items are sold here for trainers looking to take the challenge. Of course, they're all reasonably expensive as well.

Ever Grande Village - This village has shopping areas and visiting sites for travelers and pokemon fans alike. Restaurants and shops dominate this area, as do hotels and training grounds. Trainers looking to take part in the annual Ever Grande Conference will likely reside here. Lodging is free to combatants (minus the entrance fee), but attendees will have to pay a small fee. Tents are common during tournament season.

MYTH/LORE -
While there aren't many myths, lore runs rampant. Stories of trainers new and old run through this area. This is a place where skill and talent of combatants become the stuff of legends.
