Cascarrafa (Japanese: カラフシティ Carafe City) is a city in the Paldea region, located on the edge of the Asado Desert and West Province (Area One). It is known as the City of Water. It is a multi-tiered city, with elevators to facilitate movement between levels.
Because of the Gym's specialized type, the people of this city tend to walk around accompanied by Water-type Pokémon.
There are a few NPCs of interest in Cascarrafa. An unnamed woman located by the fountain in the city's second level will check any Pokémon's Friendship level. Another woman located by the same fountain, who goes by Sue, offers the player to make an in-game trade. Sue asks for a Paldean Wooper, and will trade a Wooper named Manchester in exchange, who holds a Rare Candy.
