Lavaridge Town (Japanese: フエンタウン Fuen Town) is a small, pretty town in central Hoenn. It is located on the southern foot of Mt. Chimney. Pokémon Trainers often come to Lavaridge Town in order to win the Heat Badge from Flannery, the Lavaridge Gym Leader who specializes in Template:Type2 Pokémon.
North of the town is the Jagged Pass, leading down from Mt. Chimney. East of the town is Route 112.
Places of Interest
Hot Springs
The Hot Springs is connected to an opening in the back of the Pokémon Center. The people draw as much hot water as they need, yet the spring never runs dry. The magma in the active volcano causes veins of water nearby to well up as hot springs. According to legend, the Lavaridge hotsprings calm tension, relieve muscle ache, solve romantic problems, and attract money. An old couple relaxing at the springs will give away an egg containing a Wynaut. There is also an Ice Heal hidden in the water.
Pokémon Herb Shop
- Main article: Herb Shop
The Herb Shop sells four different types of herbal medicine. The herbs are extremely bitter and will cause a Pokémon's Happiness to decrease when used. An old man inside of the shop will give the player Charcoal.
All four of the herbs in some way heal the Pokémon that they are used on but cause the Pokémon to be less friendly. The Energy Root heals a Pokémon's HP by 200. The EnergyPowder heals a Pokémon's HP by 50. The Revival Herb revives a fainted Pokémon with half its maximum HP. The Heal Powder heals any status ailment.
The prices of the herbs, in all four regions with herb shops, are:

Demographics
The population of Lavaridge Town is 23. This low number is probably due, in part, to Lavaridge's location high up in the mountains. It is probably based on Aso City in Mount Aso region in Kumamoto on Kyushu island given its hot spring and volcano references.
