Senatopia City

**Senatopia City** is a large city in the Ibaro region. It is larger than Lumiose City in Kalos, and despite this staggering size, it is only the second largest city in Ibaro. It is divided into five districts; a Commercial District, a Residential District, a Cultural District, an Industrial District, and a Central District.

## Navigation

Due to Senatopia City's size, there are jeep signs stationed around the city that will take you from place to place. They act almost identical to the taxis of Lumiose City in Kalos; upon interacting with a sign, you can select a destination.

It is divided into five main areas. The northernmost area is a typical park area, with a fountain and what appears to be a wedding area. The northern middle area is the main area of the park and the main attraction of the city. In this area, there is a statue of Reuben, the current Champion of Ibaro. The middle area is a large map of the Ibaro region; water represents the landmasses while white flowers represent the small islands. The southern middle area is a forest area, with a large pool in the middle. The southernmost area houses the Senatopia Contest Hall.

### **Gatehouses**

Senatopia City has three gatehouses:

* Eastern, connecting to Route 2, where the player first enters from
* Western, connecting to Route 3 (blocked off in Demo 0.1.0)
* Northern, connecting to Route 23 (blocked off in Demo 0.1.0)

Just like all other gatehouses around Ibaro, the first floors contain a PC and a Vending Machine, while the second floor contains a pair of binoculars that can be used to view the wild Pokémon in connecting areas. The binoculars in the northern gatehouse do not work, as there are no wild Pokémon on Route 23.

Upon using the binoculars in the western gatehouse, it is possible to see two Pokémon that cannot be seen or caught anywhere else within Demo 0.1.0:

## Story

Upon following him south, through the Industrial District towards the very southern end of the city, you will stumble upon the entrance to the Senatopia Sewers, where you will face off against Team Buster, eventually causing them to flee.
