Located Southeast of the Mainland--on the biggest island; and hidden within Pomum Forest, is Asarta Town. This quaint town is home to the Zantakesu Lab--the starting point of all Trainers Pokemon journey.

This forest surrounds Asarta Town, and is populated by a myriad of Pokemon. The leafy canvas of the treetops is broken quite a bit, causing a dazzling array of shadow-patterns on the beaten path to the Lillythorn Docks.

The docks to the northwest of Lillythorn Island are very busy through the year, being the home of the Lillythorn Ferry Service. There is also a small PokeMart here that carries some trainer essentials.

Carina Port is a bustly harbor city situated in the Southeast of the Marian mainland. Trainers beginning their journey arrive here first from Lillythorn Island.

The water here is crystal clear all year round, surrounded by an extensive coral reef. The beach itself is the home to many water-loving Pokemon, and within the reef live many exotic Water-Type Pokemon. Rumor has it that there is an underwater passage through the reef, but until you have the Dive HM it’ll be hard to investigate that.

This grassy route is sparsely populated with broad-leaved trees, and is the preferred environment for several Flying, Bug, and Normal-Type Pokemon. This route is longer than following Usen Beach to Tonden City, but it is certainly the safer of the two routes.

Accessable through both Routes 2 and 3 is Tonden City, which is overshadowed by the vast Pali Range. Quite a large city, many people live here, and thus a Gym has sprung up.

This creepy-looking cave’s mouth is right on the border of Tonden City. Deep inside, the cave’s linear route divides – one path continuing to the north-east and to Route Four, and the other path to Lake Kathar to the west. The cave itself is full of various dark and rock-type Pokemon, many of which are not-to-keen on humans trespassing in their territory.

Emerging from the northeast exit of Umbra Cavern will bring you directly into the beginnings of the long and treacherous Pali-Dorcet Ruins. These buildings have been around for centuries, some still intact but most crumbling – all covering any possible walking ground. The rubble has formed a natural maze over time, shifting with each slight alteration in the ground beneath the Pali Range. However, should you succeed in managing your way through, Caelum Town awaits you on the other side.

This town is the highest town in the Marian Region, built in the Pali Range past the trials of the Pali-Dorcet Ruins. This town was initially a series of camps dotting the high mountains until just over two hundred years ago, when the camps joined together and were officially designated a town. Of course, times have changed this scenic mountain retreat, and it is now home to a Gym and an ever-growing population. Due to the location of the town, several high-profile media icons of the region reside here, to avoid the masses below.

Lake Kathar is the clearest, most pristine body of water in the Marian Region. From nearly any point the bottom of the lake is completely visible, revealing an underground waterway which feeds the lake from the ocean. A boardwalk follows the northern edge of the lake, leading from the cave exit to the Town on the western end of the lake.

This grassy route is unique, in that the wild Pokemon change depending on the weather. Coming back in different seasons may have curious results…

This forest, recently restored, was burned down ages ago by a stampede of Rapidash. However, it was replanted and is now growing wonderfully. To the eastern end, however, there seems to be an area where the trees won’t grow leaves. This forest is inhabited primarily by Grass and Bug-Type Pokemon.

This route is populated mostly by Fire-Type Pokemon, and the odd Rock or Ground-Type. The ground is littered with ash from the fire that burned down the first Mazzo Forest, and gets very hot during the daytime. The exact cause of the heat is unknown, but it is assumed to be underground.

This port is the least developed one in the Marian Region, consisting only of the docks and a small mistreated shack where docking boats are to sign in. The keeper of the docks is particularly odd...

This forest is eternally shrouded by darkness with unknown cause - people who have entered see wonderous things, including, supposedly, an entire city! However, it has been stated by the Pokemon League that these few are affected by dimensia, and are actually reaching Nightstorm City on the far side of the island, through the forest.

This city is very, very old - perhaps the oldest in the region. Some documents in the city include sea charts that do not include several of the south-western islands, or the mountain ranges to the extreme north of the mainland - suggesting that the city has been around since before those areas were explored.

The Docks of Adaki Island are well-built and sturdy, although offer nothing beyond somewhere for the ferries to let off passengers. Directly beyond the clearing where the docks meet land is the entrance to the Fylowood.

The Fylowood covers the majority of Adaki Island, an oddly lush rainforest located in the extreme north. Rumor has it that the climate stays the same due to something deep underground, but nobody has ever proven it. Somewhere in the north end, although never properly mapped, is the rope-ladder area that leads up to the treetop town of Reichwald.

This treetop town is the second-last stop for trainers taking the Marian League Challenge. The wooden buildings untouched by the advance of technology keep a quaint feel here, with the exception of the Pokemon Center.

This undersea passage begins off the northwest shore of Adaki Island, and travels all the way to the Zoiros Citadel.

The currents surrounding this calm route is where it gets its name, preventing trainers from straying from the so-called "beaten path" without being carried back to Adaki Island.
