Eindoak Town

Eindoak Town (Japanese: アイントオーク Eindoak) is a location in the Unova region found somewhere between Castelia City and Nimbasa City. It is one of the settings of White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram. It is the relocated home of the "People of the Vale".
Long ago, the Kingdom of the Vale engaged in a war that caused a disturbance in the force that kept the land alive and flourishing, the Dragon Force. Left with no other option, the King of the People of the Vale lifted the Sword of the Vale from the ground, and placed it atop a nearby mountain to ease the Dragon Force's fury. The People of the Vale then began anew, and over time, they erected a village situated along the mountain ridge, where many have come to live. The town now boasts bountiful orchards that supply the town with food.
