Lavaridge Town is a location introduced in Generation III.
Description
Lavaridge Town is a town located at the foothills of Mt. Chimney, accessible only by going down the Mt. Chimney via Jagged Pass other than soaring and flying. The Lavaridge Pokémon Center is connected to a hot spring, which is what Lavaridge Town is famous for all over the Hoenn region. An old lady in front of the hot springs gives the player character/protagonist a Pokémon Egg, which hatches into Wynaut. She will give you another Egg afterwards, which hatches into a Togepi. The Gym Leader of Lavaridge is Flannery, who uses Fire-type Pokémon.
