Fight Area Platinum · Town
The Fight Area is the port town of the Battle Zone, the post-game region you reach by ship from Snowpoint City after entering the Hall of Fame. It sits at the doorway to the Battle Frontier, with Route 225 leading to the Survival Area and Route 230 also connecting here. On your first visit, Barry asks you to team up against Flint and Volkner in a Multi Battle, then you meet Buck and Barry's father Palmer, the Battle Tower's Tower Tycoon.
