The residents of Fortree City live in treehouses and get around by a system of rope bridges that hang in the treetops. Due to the physical exertion needed for such a lifestyle, they are all healthy and fit, and by preserving Fortree's natural environment they are able to live nearer to wild Pokémon than the residents of most other cities. Wild Pokémon often fly in through the windows, and from time to time wild will block paths in the city. The heavy rainfall saturates the soil and lets the trees grow tall.
