Areca Beach

Areca Beach is a lively beach south of Areca City. A popular tourist destination! Includes a boardwalk with several shops. It connects Areca City, Route R8, and Route R13.
==Description==
Areca Beach is a lively boardwalk and beach bustling with tourists from all around the world, many of which are just itching for a battle! Though, the tourists are not the only ones as there are a myriad of oceanic Pokémon to be encountered in the water nearby.
To the very west of the beach, you can find the Areca Beach Transportation Center where one of Professor Piper's aids will be waiting for you. She will inform you that, once you've earned the Oceanic Badge from Warren, you'll be able to transfer Pokémon from other regions to aid you in your travels across Rica.
Just in-front of the Areca Hotel, you can battle Parasol Lady Mel in a triple battle who mentions she's from the Unova Region and the triple battles there are much more exciting.
Beside the Ice Cream Stand, you can battle Lass Kara who mentions she's from the Korza Region and has never seen the ocean before once you defeat her.
Once you leave the boardwalk and are on the beach, you can head south and battle Tuber Travis who is from the Hoenn Region and claims to not only love Water-type Pokémon, but also that Hoenn has just the right amount of water.
Just east of Tuber Travis, you can battle Beauty Alice who is from the Cyare Region and claims to hate the heat in Rica.
East of Beauty Alice you can find two children by a sand castle who're from the Okeno Region, however, Tuber Marcela states that sand castles are boring and challenges you to a battle instead, though this does little to help her boredom.
North-east of the sandcastle, you can encounter Ace Trainer Ken who is on holiday from the Tokenn Region but not opposed to a battle.
