Location Location of Icirrus City in Unova.

Icirrus City in winter in Black and White

Icirrus City (Japanese: セッカシティ Sekka City) is a city located in northwestern Unova.

Icirrus City is connected to Twist Mountain to the west, and Route 8 to the east. To the north of Icirrus City lies Dragonspiral Tower.

The majority of Icirrus City's buildings are located on high ground, due to the surrounding area being in a wet climate and as such having large puddles containing wild Pokémon. Windmills can also be seen towards the south end of the city.

Places of interest

Pokémon Fan Club

Main article: Pokémon Fan Club

	Fans of Everything Pokémon The Pokémon Fan Club

The Unova region's Pokémon Fan Club is located in Icirrus. The Pokémon Fan Club is an organization spread throughout the Pokémon world, with at least one Club House in nearly every region. The Fan Club is basically a place for people to meet and chat about their favorite Pokémon and to show off their collections to each other. In general, the members are usually more oriented to unevolved, cute Pokémon.

If the player shows the chairman of the Fan Club a Pokémon, depending on how many levels it has gained since it was captured or hatched, he may reward the player with an Exp. Share, Cleanse Tag, or King's Rock. A member of the club will also rate the friendship of a Pokémon in the player's party.

Ex-Grunts' house

The lone Team Rocket Grunt who stole the Machine Part from the Kanto Power Plant in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver is revealed to live here, as he can be found in a house with his wife and son that can only be accessed during the winter. He says that while he had planned to revive Team Rocket, soon after returning home he fell in love and then married. His wife gives away a RageCandyBar, and says that RageCandyBars bring the family together, like his teammates from his old job.

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, the house is inhabited by a couple consisting of a former Team Magma Grunt and a former Team Aqua Grunt. A sound designer, presumably Shota Kageyama, is also found in the house, and can be engaged to change the background music to 10番道路 Route 10 (which is otherwise inaccessible in these games due to the absence of Route 10) for the duration of the player's stay in the house.

Aha, Wye, and Ditoh's house

Each day, Wye (Japanese: ナンデヤ Nandeya) will invite the player to take a quiz. Every time Aha (Japanese: ワカルデ Wakarude) will ask the player a question, and Ditoh (Japanese: セヤナ Seyana) always asks for a hint, which Wye gives. Upon answering the question correctly, Aha will give an Antidote to the player, but he will give a Parlyz Heal if the answer was incorrect. The answers are given via the easy chat system.

Ore maniac

Main article: Item maniac

Inside the Pokémon Center, the Gentleman to the right of the nurse's desk is an item maniac who will buy stone-like items for a higher price than usual.

Icirrus City Gym

Main article: Icirrus Gym

Demographics

Black and White

Icirrus City is an average-sized city with a population of 34.

Black 2 and White 2

Icirrus City's population decreases to 26. This is mainly due to the Gym being closed.

Variable scoring

A "clapping" percussion track will be added if the player is near the four revelling NPCs west of the Pokémon Center.

In the anime

Icirrus City in the anime

Icirrus City first appeared at the end of Guarding the Guardian of the Mountain!. It also appeared briefly in Caution: Icy Battle Conditions!, before Ash and his friends headed to the Icirrus Gym for Ash's next Gym battle. Just like its game counterpart, it was shown to have some windmills.

Trivia

Diamond dust weather in Icirrus City.

• Icirrus's Japanese motto is 空に きらめく 雪の花 "Flowers of snow glittering in the sky".
• Western Icirrus City, along with Dragonspiral Tower, was the location of the demo of Pokémon Black and White.
• A Parasol Lady across the bridge from the Pokémon Center warns the player not to step on the wetlands because wild Pokémon may pop out. This happens even in Winter, when all the wetlands are frozen. Seasonal changes cause similar confusion on Route 8.
• Icirrus City is very similar to Mahogany Town in some aspects. They both house their region's seventh Gym, their Gym specializes in Ice-type Pokémon, a RageCandyBar can be obtained, and Team Rocket is encountered.
• Icirrus City contains one of the three Gyms decommissioned between the events of Pokémon Black and White and Pokémon Black 2 and White 2. The others are in Striaton City and Nacrene City.
  • Of the three Gyms, the Icirrus Gym was the only one in the main loop around the Entralink.
