Dahara City (Japanese: デセルシティ Désert City) is an anime-exclusive location in Kalos and one of the settings of Hoopa and the Clash of Ages. Sitting by a inlet in the desert, Dahara City is a sprawling metropolis with towering skyscrapers surrounded by stone houses. One of its landmarks is the Dahara Tower.
One hundred years ago, a great battle between the Pokémon occurred in the city, causing massive destruction.
It debuted in Hoopa, The Mischief of Pokémon. As Barza, Mary and Hoopa had split ways in their search for the Prison Bottle, Mary and Hoopa eventually saw the skyline of Dahara City in the distance.
Trivia
- Dahara City is based on Dubai, a city located within the Arabian Desert and sits alongside the coast of the Persian Gulf. Dubai is also the site of some of the world's tallest skyscrapers, such as the Burj Khalifa.
