| Route One
Route One is located north of Nirven Town, usually the second area that Trainers visit on their journey. Many trees surround the area, as do a few small cliffs, but it is mostly just a grassland. Since it is so close to the town, there are not many wild Pokemon located here.

Route Two is actually quite small, a marshland, consisting of a large lake with banks of land going through it. Of all the possible pathways to cross, only one way will see a traveller through without getting wet. As an added bonus, any traveller who crosses the correct path will meet up with an old lady who may give them a great item.

No one knows quite where this forest got its strange and unique name, but it occupies a very large area. The trees are spaced so closely together that they allow very little sunlight to get through to the foest floor, even in the Winter when the branches are bare. A base for the nefarious Grim is located here, though it is believed to have been deserted recently. There are also rumors of a clearing that contains a mystical stone, but few have ever seen it.

Route Three is merely a large field with a few scattered trees and a path going through it. Though it is large, one can travel across it fairly quickly by sticking to the path. However, it is not recomended to walk along the path if one intendts to capture wild Pokemon, as they tend to avoid it.

| Underground Tunnel (1 sub-board)
The path to Bernar Town is not acessable by the normal path because it is a Restricted Area. No one knows who closed off the area, but travellers must now travel to the Town via the Underground Tunnel. Popular belief is that Professor Tarei herself caused its creation. Unless trainers recieve a Flash HM, they will not be able to see through the pitch black darkness. It is not advised for one to attempt to travel through the tunnel without flash, though it is possible.

| Route Four
Route four connects from the Underground tunnel's exit to Bernar Town. With only a few clusters of trees and a large lake near the center, this route is more of a pasture. The local farmers of Bernar bring their Pokemon to graze, but there is occasionally a wild one about. This is a great place to train before heading off to the Bern Gym.

| Bernar Town (1 sub-board)
A town of farmers, Bernar Town is surprisingly advanced. Its Pokemon Center has an automated healing machine, as the nurse is usually busy tending to the farm Pokemon, and the Mart is run by a robot Ranger. Many travellers visit here for the farm's goods, and Pokemon trainers come here for the Gym. The Gym leaader is also a farmer, but he has a large diversity in Pokemon. If a trainer defeats him, they will not only get a badge, but also some of the unique products of his farm.

Located to the east of Bernar Town, Route Five is much more vegetated than any of the earlier routes. Trees are scattered everywhere and the long grass reaches past one's knees. Vines and bushes lay about every step of the way.

Route Six is somewhat of an abrupt change from the vegetation of Route Five to barren and rocky ground. There are few trees and only an occasional tiny patch of grass. The soil is dry and not very fertile, even though it is in the shadow of Mount Homorgina.

| Mount Homorgina (1 sub-board)
Route Six leads to the foot of Mount Homorgina. A path leads up the mountain, taking travellers to Geo village on the summit, then back down to Runox on the other side. Both the ascent and the descent take a long time, about half a day's walk at least for each. Mount Homorgina is the smallest of three mounains in the Laokia Region. There are also rumors that the summit is home to a mystical stone, though none have seen it.

Runox is a town located right at the eastern foot of Mount Homorgina. A gym is located in the town, home to a flying-type gym leader. She is also the first female gym leader a trainer would encounter on their journey. The soil here is extremely fertile, so the town has a thriving herbal medicine market. Trainers are advised to stock up on water before continuing east into the desert.

| Kamee Desert
The Kamee Desert is located to the east of Runox and is the longer of the two deserts that travellers will need to cross on their journey from Runox to Gallaville. Temperatures in this desert can reach a scorching 120˘ŞF, and the limited shade makes this a very dangerous endeavor. Travellers should dress lightly, but should always keep their head covered, as well as any bare skin unless they are wearing sunblock. Thankfully, there is an Oasis seperating the two deserts and offering a place for recuperation.

| Shia Oasis
The Shia Oasis lies between the Kamee and the Tawnee deserts. It is not a halfway point from Runox to Gallaville, as the Kamee desert is longer than the Tawnee, making it closer to being three-fourths of the distance. It offers a refuge from the scorching sun of the deserts, and is a good place to rest and recuperate after travelling through the dehydrating desert. The water is clean and fresh, perfect to rehydrate after the dry trip to get there. It is not an extremely large area, but it is home to many Pokemon. Also, sometimes rare and even legendary Pokemon visit this area, as it is quite beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing, and for the most part un-tainted by humans.

| Tawnee Desert
The Tawnee Desert continues in the eastwarly path from Runox to Gallaville, the last stretch for travellers visiting the large large, if rather quaint, city. Temperatures in this desert begin to cool off from the Kamee desert, reaching a maximum of around 100˘ŞF by the time travellers reach the end of it. Of course, temperatures can reach to below freezing at night, just as in the Kamee desert. Travellers should make sure to get enough rest and water at the Oasis before continuing through this desert, as they will find next to none before reaching Gallaville. This desert is smaller than the first, but still a dangerous challenge to cross.

| Gallaville (1 sub-board)
Gallaville is a large city, but a very quaint one. It is more rustic and down-to-earth than most large and profitable cities, and its people are very environmentally concious. There is another gym here, and as one would expect the leader specializes in Grass and Water-type Pokemon. Gallaville is the final city on the north-eastern part of the mainland. Trainers could cross the ocean after visiting this city and make their way through the Laokian Islands. If they wanted to, they could travel all the way around to the western side of the region, the sea route being much quicker than the one over land, but they would likely find the opponents too powerful. This is the easiest way to read Target Island, unless a traveller is willing to go back to Nirven Town and reach it from the port there. There are four islands that are easily accesable from this eastern city, and the best course to reach the rest, and the wisest if one is challenging the gyms or contest halls, is to back-track after exploring all four islands and head to the west.

| Route Seven
Route Seven is filled with rolling hills, dotted with more than a few trees of various varieties. A rather large tree lies in the route's center, providing a home to many Pokemon. In fact, this tree, rumored to be from ancient times, is large enough that fully grown humans and even some of the larger Pokemon can go inside and explore its tunnels.
Moderator: Mysterio | 0 | 0 | |
| Route Eight
A distinct difference from route seven, Route Eight begins after a steep drop-off from the highlands with the hills. A navigable path leads down the steep slopes and into the valley land of the route. A river is said to have once flowed here, but has long since dried up, if it ever exsisted. Another path leads up the side of the mountains, but travellers who choose to explore may find various ruins littered in the valley.
Moderator: Harukien | 0 | 0 | |
| Mount Linar (1 sub-board)
Mt. Linar is Laokia's second, smaller mountain range. It is dominated by the large volcano, Kuranta. A distinct difference from the snow-capped Homorgina mountain range, the Linar mountains are dry, with a great deal more rocks than vegetation. Dried mgma can be found in great quantities near the volcano, even flowing lava on occasion. Travellers should be extra careful when crossing this terrain, especially if they decide to travel up to the summit of Kuranta.
Moderator: Delpha | 0 | 0 | |
| Muertos Village
Muertos Village is a decrepit settlement, the very definition of a 'ghost town'. Being so near the mountains and volcano, it is surprising that it still stands, the ruins echoing a once bustling village. However, to say that this place is completely uninhabited would be a lie. Researchers and scientists gather here to study the volcano and the native Pokemon, and those more daring explorers often settle here in the search of adventure. A gym is said to exist here as well, hidden in one of the buildings that are falling apart.
Moderator: CCKip | 0 | 0 | |
| Cráneo Caverns
Populating the cliffs under Muertos Village, the Cráneo caverns are so named because of the many skulls littering the ground and emedded within their walls. Little is known about the ancient place, and few have dared to venture far into their depths. There are rumors of lost souls wandering the caverns, and even of a curse that is said to befall any who dare enter. Still, navigating through the caverns is the only known way to reach Route Nine, other than flying down the side of the cliff.
Moderator: timedknight | 0 | 0 | |
| Route Nine
Route Nine is a craggy place, the ground split open in many places. Some of these crevices are also filled with lava, adding to the already prominent danger. One should tread careully when traversing this route, always watching their step. On occassion, the plates deep under the earth crash together or pull apart, making this area even more unstable. Many times this leads to the ground opening up and leaving yet another crevice, but earthquakes are also likely, albeit rarely.
Moderator: terrakki | 0 | 0 | |
| Oka River
Much like Agerie City, this river is split between pure, clean water and polluted water. The river is amazingly clean and pure upstream, before it runs through the pollution given off by Kuranta. The toxicity of the downstream river is so high that few Pokemon can live there; Poison-types and the incredibly hardy and adaptable Water-types call this place home. More than a few people have found their deaths in the poisoned water. Upstream, however, he water is actually abnormally healthy, home to many Pokemon.
Moderator: Mysterio | 0 | 0 | |
| Route Ten
Covered in ash from the somewhat distant volcano, Route Ten can also be dangerous, but to a lesser extent than Route Nine. Travellers are strongly cautioned to be careful not to breathe in any of the sulfuric ashes, though this can prove difficult with the stuff so thick in the air. Despite the seemingly undesireable conditions, many Pokemon call this area home. They find ample opportunity to hide within the thick ash and the blackened vegetation. The ash can be collected, and blacksmiths within Agerie City can craft them into various items.
Moderator: Harukien | 0 | 0 | |
| Agerie City (1 sub-board)
Agerie City is split ino two distinctly different halves, each half having its own gym. The conditions presented by the volcano are the most distinct cause of this split, with one half being filled with pollution, while the other half has been puirified and cleaned by the fresh ocean air. The polluted portion of the city is filled with poverty and crime, while the clean half is rich and stern when it comes to abiding by the rules. The city nearly always seems to be on the brink of war, and more often than not the question isn't IF a war will start, but WHEN.

Dense vegitation of all varieties, a great place to find berries. There is no gym, but there is a small Pokemon Center and Mart near the center of the small island.

Moderator: Mysterio | 0 | 0 | |
| Tropica Island
Tropica Island is named so because it is a Tropical Island, covered in palm trees. Though this island does not have a gym, it is a good place to stop on your journey. The mart has many cheaply priced goods and you can find all sorts of berries on bushes. Also there are various species of rarer Pokemon here, and as an added bonus, the chance of finding a shiny is much higher here. You can skip this island all together, but few would want to.

| Isle of Whalesong
This island is famous for the monthly Wailmer and Wailord migration, many of the Pokemon making their home here, their songs echoing in the twilit air everyday. Some rarer Water-types also gather at this nearly whale-shaped island, and a local nurse Joy makes it her job to care for all of them.

| Blossom Isle
A remarkably beautiful island, it is marked by its fruit trees and orchards, on which blossoms appear to be present at all times of the year. However, despite its immense beauty, no people inhabit the islnd, other than a single Nurse Joy who lives on the western beach, away from all the trees and soil. This is easily explained by the island's dark secret, the reason behind the extremely fertile soil.

| Windbreak Cove
This island is named because of the cove that is sheltered against the harsh winds that surround it leading to Tsunami island. The cove is also sheltered from the Tsunamis, ridiculously high cliffs protecting the inland from the torrential wind and waves.

So named for the frequent Tsunamis hitting it, this land is so ravaged and destroyed that only a few Pokemon live here and only in a few scattered areas are there plant life. It does contain a small Pokemon Center, but that is it. It is rumoured that the missing eighth Gym Leader can be found here, but this is uncertain. All trainers who have managed to get all eight badges never revealed the last Gym Leader's location.

| Crescent Moon Island
This peculiar island, shaped like a crescent moon, is shrouded in mystery and seems to be pervaded by a dark pall at all times of the day. Clouds hang over the island, keeping the sun from shining through, and a slight fog covers the ground. However, during the night the clouds and fog lift, the moon and starlight brightening the island more than any other time. There is no gym, and not even a known pokemart or pokecenter upon this island, mostly because visibility is so low to see when visitors to arrive on the island, and also because most avoid this area.

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.

Luna Valley is accesable 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.
Moderator: Delpha | 0 | 0 | |
| Starside City
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 and Mystical Pokemon.

| Mt. Ironwill
Mt. Ironwill rises steadily from the edge of starside city, not too steep of an incline at first, but soon becoming so rocky and steep that it becomes difficult to climp even for the most experienced climbers. In the city there are many rumors of a mysterious Pokemon that will carry travellers to the top.

| Frostbite Pass
Frostbite Pass is located at the peak of Mt. Ironwill, temperatures dropping to far below freezing. Almost everything is covered in ice and snow, making a fall off the pass, so cloaked in snow and mist as to hinder sight, more than a little likely.

| Glacierside City
Glacierside City is located at the end of the pass, the city built into the side of a glacier. Mostly eskimos and the adventurous live here, and the city is home to an ice-type gym. Some parts of the city are dangerous, as the ice has melted to form pools of freezing water under very thin ice.

| Reed River
Reed River is found at the side of the glacier in which the city was built. It is extremely wide, and the only way down the mountain, other than flying. However, because of the freezing waters at the beginning, along with the extreme depth and width of the river, the only way to traverse it is by renting a raft or riding on the back of a Pokemon.
Moderator: Harukien | 0 | 0 | |
| Hollowlog Swamp
The river empties out into Hollowlog Swamp, which is actually below sea level. Since it is a Swamp, rather than a lake, the water from the river must empty out somewhere, but that place has yet to be found. Some areas of the swamp are sink holes, and if one were to fall into one, without help it would be unlikely that they would be able to get out.
Moderator: Delpha | 0 | 0 | |
| Palient Town
Palient Town is on slightly higher ground that the swamp, keeping it quite dry, but making it something of a dust bowl. The ancient buildings and the artifacts found throughout the town, is a hint to the age of this place. The Gym leader specializes in fossil Pokemon, and if one searched hard enough they could find many fossils in the ground and rocks of the town.
Moderator: CCKip | 0 | 0 | |
| Thunder Valley
Thunder Valley is once again below sea level, stone stairs, which unlike those on Sol Ridge, were carved with the work of Humans and Pokemon, lead from the town into this valley. Though it is at such a low altitude, iron deposits in the soil draw lightning from miles around.
Moderator: timedknight | 0 | 0 | |
| Generator City
Generator City, located at the end of Thunder Valley, provides electricity to all of Aryll. The city gathers electricity that strikes the valley, as well as from the help of the many electric-types in the area. No gym is located here, but it is still a worthwhile stop, and even a necessary one, on a traveller's journey.
Moderator: terrakki | 0 | 0 | |
| Psychosis Rock
Psychosis Rock is yet another mountain, named so for the feeling of zen it provides, as well as the many psychic Pokemon residing there. It is a difficult climb, but some chemical in the air provides a natural high, people with low tolerance seeming quite drunk. Thus, the climb is hardly noticed, despite its dificulty.
Moderator: Mysterio | 0 | 0 | |
| Dragonspine Ridge
Dragonspine Ridge is located at the top of the mountain, much more treacherous to traverse than the other ridges in Aryll. This is made even more dangerous due to the dragon-types known to live in the area. Many powerful dragons have been spotted here, and are not known for their tolerance of trespassers. As the last leg on a traveller's journey, it is certainly more than difficult enough.
Moderator: Harukien | 0 | 0 | |
| Mythicscale City
Mythicscale City, the location of the final gym, stands at the end of the ridge. It is a city of epic proportions, sparkling brilliantly. It is said to be made entirely of diamond, and this is not a hard rumor to believe with its crystalline beauty. The gym leader's Pokemon preference is unknown, as none who have fought him have ever told, though whispers of legends float around the city.

Two shrines, one for the Lord of darkness/night, Umbreon, and the other for the Lady of light/day, Espeon. They are said to keep the balance in the Laokia region. Light and darkness depend upon each other to survive. Without one, you cannot have the other. Neither is bad or good; they are what they are made to be. Trainers can make a wish to the spirits of the shrines, and it may be granted.
