Desert Resort (Japanese: リゾートデザート Resort Desert) is a desert located within the Unova region. It is connected to Route 4 at its southeastern exit. It provides access to the Relic Castle. It has two subareas: desert and entrance.

Geography

The Desert Resort is split into two distinct areas: a narrow desert path and a large, barren desert. A sandstorm is always occurring in both parts. Like Route 4, the Desert Resort has deep sand rather than tall grass. The Desert Resort's southeastern entrance is a short, narrow pathway that cuts through a rocky hill. A gate at the end of the path connects directly to the inner area. The interior covers a large area and features many sandy hills, valleys, and deep sand throughout its barren ground. In the center of the northern end of the resort lies one of the entrances to the Relic Castle. This entrance is guarded by five statues which are actually Darmanitan in their Zen Mode. If the player uses a RageCandyBar on them, they can be awoken, and will have the Zen Mode Ability. To the west of the entrance is a tower that acts as an exit to Relic Castle. In Black 2 and White 2, this tower is buried in the sand and becomes inaccessible. At the very northern end of the resort, a hillside can be seen sliding into the ocean.

Desert Resort in the anime

Desert Resort was first mentioned in Team Rocket's mission briefing with Giovanni in The Bloom Is on Axew!. It is said that a special meteorite called Meteonite is located within the desert, and as such, they are told to go to there to retrieve it.

In A Venipede Stampede!, the trio along with Pierce and Dr. Zager traveled in a helicopter above the barren desert and located the Meteonite. Ash and his friends met up with Professor Juniper to travel to the Desert Resort because of Team Rocket's unusual activity.

The Desert Resort was set to play a major role in the original BW023 and BW024, but the episodes have since been postponed indefinitely, and ended up being retconned out of continuity when Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot! aired.

Desert Resort in Pokémon Generations

In Pokémon Generations

Desert Resort made an appearance along with Relic Castle in The Adventure, where Red and his Pikachu were seen entering the castle.
