Celestic Town is a tiny, ancient town in the mountains of central Sinnoh, east of Mt. Coronet where Route 211 meets Route 210. Its shrine holds a mural of the Sinnoh creation legend. In Diamond and Pearl a Team Galactic grunt threatens to blow up the ruins; after you beat him and deliver the Old Charm, Cynthia's grandmother hands over HM03 (Surf).

Tips

- After Team Galactic is beaten at Spear Pillar, Cynthia's grandmother's house shows a picture of the other version's legendary (Palkia in Diamond, Dialga in Pearl), registering it as seen.
- The time-of-day gifts in the shop are worth collecting: Choice Specs in the morning, Black Glasses during the day and Wise Glasses at night.
- There is no regular Poké Mart; an elderly couple in a north-west house runs the shop instead.
