'''Snowpoint City''' (Japanese: '''キッサキシティ''' ''Kissaki City'') is a city in the [[region]] of [[Sinnoh]]. Its temple is home to the legendary Pokémon {{p|Regigigas}}.

Although Snowpoint City is not home to much, a noticable landmark in the area is [[Snowpoint Temple]], which can only be accessed after the Sinnoh [[Elite Four]] have been beaten and the [[National Dex]] has been obtained. The temple contains five floors, with odd bits of slippery ice. At the very bottom of the temple lies a dormant Regigigas. To awaken this legendary Pokémon, the player must bring all three of the [[legendary golems]] along with them, which are all only available in the [[Generation III]] games.

Because of the location of the temple within a city, Regigigas is only the third legendary Pokémon that can be caught within city limits, the other two being {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Suicune}} in [[Ecruteak City|Ecruteak]]'s [[Tin Tower]] during [[Generation II]].

There is a house to the north of the [[Pokémon Center]], in which an old man will teach the player new words to use in interviews once per day. In the opposite house, a girl will [[trade]] a {{p|Haunter}} for a {{p|Medicham}}.

Snowpoint is located in the far north of Sinnoh, where snow blows down from the top of [[Mt. Coronet]], causing low temperatures. Snowpoint City, and the three routes that lead to it ({{rt|216}}, {{rt|217}} and [[Acuity Lakefront]]) are also completely covered in snow. To the northeast of Route 217, [[Lake Acuity]] can be found. A cave, which houses {{p|Uxie}}, is located in the middle of Lake Acuity. Being that the snow, which affects every battle on the two routes leading to the city, as well as the fact that to get to {{rt|216}} from the rest of Sinnoh one must pass through [[Mt. Coronet]], the most convenient way to get to the city is to {{m|Fly}}.

On January 10, 2008, [[Junichi Masuda]] posted a blog entry urging players to play their Diamond or Pearl January 12. On that day, the same day as Masuda's birthday, a [[Weather conditions|weather effect]] called [[wp:diamond dust|diamond dust]] occurred in Snowpoint City, replacing the usual snow. It resembles glitter in the air. It is purely aesthetic, since it only occurs within the city where no battles are possible. It has been determined that other special weather conditions such as thunderstorms happen on predetermined days throughout the year, such as the diamond dust on April 22, 2007, when Diamond and Pearl saw their release in North America.

Its name may be derived from the fact that it is a snow-covered city that is located at the northern-most point of Sinnoh. Its Japanese name is the same as that of the tip of a [[wp:katana|katana]].
