Fortree City (Japanese: ヒワマキシティ Hiwamaki City) is a city, roughly between Mauville and Lilycove, in the Hoenn region. To its west are Route 119 and the Weather Institute, and to its east Route 120 and the Safari Zone. The city's motto is "The Treetop City that Frolics with Nature."

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 Bug-type Pokémon often fly in through the windows, and from time to time wild Kecleon will block paths in the city. The heavy rainfall saturates the soil and lets the trees grow tall.

Slogan

The treetop city that frolics with nature. (Japanese: きの　うえで　しぜんと　たわむれる　まち The treetop city that frolics with nature.)

Places of interest

Residential houses

A woman in one of the houses of Fortree City will give away TM10 (Hidden Power) if the player can guess which hand she is hiding a coin in three times. Also in Pokémon Emerald, in this same house there is an old man who will teach a compatible Pokémon Sleep Talk one time only.

A boy in one of the houses will trade his Skitty (nicknamed Skitit) for a Pikachu in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, and his Plusle (nicknamed Pluses) for a Volbeat in Pokémon Emerald. In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Elyssa will trade her Skitty (nicknamed Skitit) for a Spinda.

The Fortree Gym is the official Gym of Fortree City. Fortree's Gym Leader, Winona, uses Flying-type Pokémon. When defeated, she awards the challenger the Feather Badge, which allows the player to use Fly outside of battle, as well as TM40 (Aerial Ace) in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald and TM19 (Roost) in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

Fortree City in the anime

Ash and his friends arrived in Fortree City in Who's Flying Now?, just in time for a local festival called the Feather Carnival, where people celebrate wild Flying-type Pokémon. During the festivities, they met Winona, the local Gym Leader. James also encountered the Magikarp salesman, who sold him what he claimed to be a Chimecho, which James had wanted since his childhood, but turned out to be a disguised Hoppip. Soon after, James however came across a real Chimecho, which happily joined his team.

In Sky High Gym Battle!, Ash had a Gym battle against Winona at the Fortree Gym and defeated her, earning his sixth Hoenn League Badge.

Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

Fortree City's first appearance came in the Ruby & Sapphire arc as the emergency meeting point of the Hoenn Gym Leaders, in the wake of the death of Mt. Chimney. Although Flannery called the meeting, it had to take place in Fortree because its Gym Leader, Winona, supervised the other leaders' duties in Hoenn. The initial meeting took place without Tate and Liza, who were asked to guard the Orbs at Mt. Pyre (though the other Gym Leaders were unaware of this). Wallace, who was visiting Fallarbor Town to discuss research conducted by Professor Cozmo's assistants following the Mt. Chimney incident, attended the initial meeting via webcam.

The Gym Leaders discussed both Team Magma and Team Aqua; after an argument, they decide to take sides. Norman refused to support either team and left the meeting. Sapphire then arrived at Fortree to challenge Winona to a battle, but lost, though Sapphire managed to convince Winona to coach her afterwards.

Once Wallace arrived at Fortree in person, the first meeting was disbanded, although the leaders stayed at Fortree to monitor the situation. That night, a dejected Ruby, who had arrived at Fortree with Wallace but fell out with Sapphire later during the day, left the city, and Wallace had to chase after him. A tsunami then washed up on the shores of southern Hoenn, flooding Slateport, Dewford and Littleroot. Before Brawly could respond to the emergency in his town, the Gym Leaders were alerted to another energy source causing a drought which had affected Fortree. Thus, it was agreed that Roxanne and Brawly targeted the source of the drought while Wattson and Flannery targeted the source of the tsunami. Winona agreed to find the boundary where the energy sources clashed, and took Sapphire with her.
