Lumiose City

A dazzling metropolis of art and artifice, located in the very heart of the Kalos region.

Many small shops and cafés line the many streets and avenues of Lumiose City.

The city is shaped like a spoked wheel. The outside "wheel" is split into North and South Boulevards, while the spokes are divided among several avenues and plazas. The boulevards and avenues are lined with the city's many establishments, while the plazas are primarily open gathering spaces, with an occasional establishment or two on the outskirts. The center hub is a wide, open area with Prism Tower at its center.
