South Boulevard (Japanese: サウスサイド ストリート Southside Street) is a street lining the southern half of Lumiose City in the Kalos region. It connects to North Boulevard, Estival Avenue, and Vernal Avenue. This is the first part of Lumiose City that the player can explore in Pokémon X and Y, along with Vernal Avenue. The other parts are blocked until the player has defeated Team Flare at the Kalos Power Plant and watched Clemont relight the Lumiose Gym.
South Boulevard has three gates connecting it to outside routes. In the southwest is the Route 4 Gate, in the southeast the Route 5 Gate, and in the northwest the Route 13 Gate.

Professor Sycamore's Pokémon research lab is located directly opposite Vernal Avenue. It is here where the player can receive either Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle upon defeating Professor Sycamore in a Pokémon battle early in the game, as well as their corresponding Mega Stone. After the player enters the Hall of Fame, they can return to the lab to get the Poké Radar from one of the scientists on the second floor.
On the second floor, the player can change Rotom's forms.
Coiffure Clips
A small hairdresser located opposite the Route 5 Gate. The player can have their hair colored and styled here.
The prices and options are slightly different for male and female players. If a female player requests a styling, she may choose to have the stylist style only her front hair or all of her hair (including her front hair, as a secondary option).
- Styling and color: $3,000 (♀, front style only: $2,500)
- Styling: $1,500 (♀, front only: $500)
- Color: $2,000
For both male and female players, the options for colors are the same. In order from lightest to darkest, they are: Blond♂/Blonde♀, Orange, Honey, Brown, and Black.
The styling options differ significantly for male and female players. If the player has at least 50 points of style, additional styling options will be available.
- Male: Very Short, Short, Medium. Additional: Medium Perm
- Female: Short, Bobbed, Medium, Long. Additional: Ponytail, Pigtails
- Female (front): Sideswept, Bangs
At any point, instead of choosing a specific color or style themselves, the player may leave the decision to the stylist by selecting the "Surprise me" option. If this option is chosen, the stylist will pick a random style or color different from the player's current one.

Style
- Main article: Style (Lumiose City)
Within Lumiose City, the player has a degree of style which can be raised by doing things around the city. If the player has a high style, prices may be lower, more items and services may be offered, and certain establishments may be accessible that were not before.
The effects of style on this street are noted in the sections above. Additionally, the Hatching Power O-Power can be obtained at Café Introversion with high enough style:
Non-player characters
In addition to the above benefits, some NPCs will change their dialogue as the player's style increases, and several new NPCs will appear in various places (mostly cafés) around the city as well. On South Boulevard, at 25 points of style, more people will appear in Café Introversion, and at 50 points of style, more people will appear in Shutterbug Café.
