Firestone City
Firestone City is located in the middle of a volcano, making it somewhat secluded from the rest of the Midori region. This city has had a long and gruesome history. Back in the old days, there was a man by the name of Magnus, meaning big in Latin. He really and truly lived up to his name. He and his partner, Typhlosion, felt the need to conquer the whole Midori region. City after city fell under their reign one at a time. Then one day, Magnus encountered a trainer by the name of Firestone. Firestone didn't want Magnus to take over another city, so he challenged him to a battle. On and on they fought, and soon everyone started taking sides and this turned into war. It was called the Midori Revolution. In the end, Firestone was able to take down Magnus, but he sacrificed his life in the process. In honor of Firestone's bravery, the people of the Midori region made Firestone City and purposely built it in the middle of a volcano to show the fiery spirit that Firestone possessed. A statue of Firestone guards Firestone City, and the Firestone Festival is celebrated once a year to honor him. Firestone City isn't full of skyscrapers like most cities are. Because of the heat, there are only medium-sized homes and a few other buildings (workplaces, a small department store, etc.) but everyone here lives a happy life. Mining is a huge business here, as it is the only place where mining exists in the Midori region. Firestone City is also the center of engineering in the Midori region, and all the cities get all their engineered products from Firestone City.
