A large bush of thorns that spans for over a mile. The thorns are coated in a deadly poison if not treated within two hours of entering the bloodstream, so travellers are cautioned to be careful and quick, and to carry around the antitoxin if they can find it.

Once exiting maze of thorn bush, travelers find themselves in a rather large city. There are few people that live here, and most of the buildings are deserted, falling apart, and overrun by weeds and vines. A few buildings are still intact and running, though, including the Pokemon Center, Poke Mart, and the gym. If a trainer defeats the gym leader, they will receive the Thorn Badge.

ext stop on an adventurer's journey after Thorn Bush, is a massive cliff wall. One could attempt to scale it one way or another, but the Murkrow in the area make most if not all attempts futile. The easier route, lies through a path going through a fissure in the cliffs, but watch out for that drop not to far to your right.

Half way through the chasm the pit closes off, and one meets what at first can be assumed a dead end. A wide river before them flowing down the next path, water flooding the route from wall to wall. The water runs too quickly for a human or a non-water type pokemon to swim in, and travelers will need a strong water type to carry them across. Even with a water type to carry them over the river though, the whole river filters through a series of caves that branch off in several directions and finding the right path can be tricky.

Oakstone City is well known for its collection of beautiful rocks, all gathered from the Wetstone River. Some of these rocks are believed to be metiorites, fallen from space at some time in forgotten history. A rock gym is located here, the leader also known to use bug and water Pokemon, which thrive due to the vicinity to the river. Most of the newer buildings are made of brick, but older buildings, including the gym, are built entirely from stone, crafted remarkably well for the time.

Sol Ridge extends from Oakstone City, the highest path in all of Aryll. The Sun always seems to be visible, even if only a tiny spec of it, as long as it is daytime. This area is rather warm, tending to rise to temperatures more akin to a desert.

Luna Valley is accessible once reaching a unique formation in the side of Sol Ridge, which very oddly resemble stairs. It is far cooler than the ridge, temperatures falling much like they do at night in the desert.

Starside City is located at the end of Luna Valley and at the base of Mt. Ironwill. It has a marvelous view of the sky, perfect for gazing at the stars at night. There also seems to be an odd abundance of Volbeat and Illumise here, seen year round. The gym leader here is fond of Psychic Pokemon.
