Amity Square
Amity Square (Japanese: ふれあいひろば Contact Plaza) is a park in Sinnoh where trainers can walk around with their Pokémon and talk to them to check their moods. Amity Square is located north of Hearthome City. The setup in Amity Square is identical to the Pikachu interaction system that was in Pokémon Yellow. Only certain small Pokémon can be taken for walks in Amity Square, usually of a "cute" appearance. Pokémon will fetch accessories or berries for their owners every 200 steps.
In Pokémon Platinum, more Pokémon are allowed in than before, and the area has been expanded and redesigned. It now includes a rather large pool of water.

The only ones who don't have an Amity Square Pokémon are Tracey and Max, and the latter because he doesn't have any Pokémon.
