Albeit minor (only consisting in the presence of wild Kecleon and one Go-Rock Grunt), there's also a location called Amity Square in Fall City. Even if that one doesn't deserve its own article, I propose a redirect of this to Amity Square (Sinnoh) --Johans 23:09, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

There are two Viridian Forests too. If the other one gets an article, I think we should do as we did with Viridian Forest, since Ranger's a side game too, even if it has greater links to the versions. --TTEchidna 00:52, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Nah, it doesn't deserve its own article (not more than Viridian Forest (Channel) did). How about just a link to Fall City? --Johans 01:34, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
Yes, a simple mention like: "In Pokémon Ranger, there is also a small location in Fall City called Amity Square." Brief and simple. Like the area itself. --DarkfireTaimatsu 01:54, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Oddity

I had my Pikachu in the Square today and I got a Magost Berry, but it's not listed as one of the items that Pikachu can find... Manga-in-a-bottle

The Pokémon can all find berries, and they all find the same types of berries. --Shiny Noctowl 14:10, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
Shouldn't the article be updated then? I've not experimented that, but the Prima guide and Serebii mention it. --Johans 05:18, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
LOL, I just got a Magost Berry myself, while walking with my Buneary. --Johans 06:31, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
Particularly in regard to berries, the item list seems incomplete...several berries are supposedly found in Amity Square (like Durin Berry and Watmel Berry, to name 2)) but aren't on the list at all. --Maki 10:31, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

No Eevees allowed?!

I can't believe this! I once had a dream where I was walking with my Eevee in Amity Square. Despite the fact that Eevee is one of the cutest Pokémon ever, it cannot come here. That is such a pity. Sneedly94 19:29, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Well, in order for something to go there, it needs the proper sprites to be made for it, and they may have run out of room. Or maybe they were just lazy. Maybe they ran out of time. Maybe by "cute" they really mean "those liked by the fanbase and/or the ones we are trying to make the fanbase like", with a possible bias towards the Japanese fanbase. I don't know. At any rate though, I don't see what stopped them from having another Pokémon in there that can pick up the same things as Jigglypuff. It just seems odd that there's an odd number of them able to enter. Also, note how Jigglypuff's rarest item is a common one for other Pokémon, and how it's the only one that can pick up Blue Feathers, despite having no blue coloring on its body. Makes me feel as though something were dropped from being able to enter Amity Square; my money's on Piplup. System Error 20:02, 19 August 2007 (UTC)


A lot of the Pokemon allowed in Amity Square already have sprites in the game, so I don't know how much it has to do with fandom as opposed to paying the sprite designer more. For example, I don't think anyone really finds Psyduck to be all that "cute" (in my opinion) but they already had the sprites in the game for when they were blocking the road to Celestic Town. Same with Drifloon--if you didn't catch it exclusively by talking to its sprite in the field, I'm sure it wouldn't be there. Even Pikachu's sprite is already there (for several in-game Pikachu, as well as the Pikachu impersonator trainer).Also, I noticed that except for Skitty, all the Amity Square pokemon walk on two legs. Doesn't explain Skitty, though... Anyway, I agree with you, Eevee is great, but maybe too detailed for a good sprite? I dunno. Just guessing. (oh man, and having Eevee in Amity Square would make it so much easier to evolve it to Umbreon or Espeon...) --Maki 10:37, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Mr. Backlot?

I think one of the townspeople in Hearthome City says that Mr. Backlot (the owner of the mansion and the Trophy Garden) also owns Amity Square. I'm not sure, though...anyway, should this be added??

Yes, someone does mention that. I agree that it should be added, but under the "Trivia" section. File:Ani164MS.gifShiny?! 13:23, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
