Verdanturf Town

Verdanturf Town is a small, quaint town nestled between the mountains and the plains in central-western Hoenn. It is well known for its very clean air. Wally is sent to live here with his aunt, uncle, and cousin, Wanda, to improve his health. The town features a Contest Hall in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, as well as in their Generation VI remakes, Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. In Pokémon Emerald, however, the Contest Hall is replaced with a Battle Tent. There are two ways out of Verdanturf: to the east is Route 117 towards Mauville City; and to the north is the Rusturf Tunnel, which was being constructed to link Rustboro and Verdanturf. However, the construction disturbed the local Whismur who lived in the tunnel, and so it was canceled.
