    [PokeCommunity.com] Anville Town

    Accessible only via the Anville line taken from Nimbasa's Gear Station, this quiet town is where the trains of the Battle Subway terminate. The main attraction is the turntable that features a different train model each day; a description of which is offered by a Worker. There's also a Depot Agent distributes items that scale according to Battle Subway streaks. On weekends, some trainers come here to trade goods. In B2W2, a side quest regarding a Lost Pansage rewards the player with a Brightpowder. Another minor yet cool feature is the flute track that plays should you be near the flautist.

    Have you ever paid a visit to Anville Town? What did you think of it? Did you read through all the train descriptions?​
     
    Anville Town has a lovely music, it sounds better with the sound of flute! I don't mind the trading items ,but the location is quite inconvenient.

    It would be great if there's something more we can do than item trading and train viewing. Like a silly train that involves our Pokémon? :3c{XD}
     
    Anville Town was almost always the place I went to following a Battle Subway Challenge. Most of the time, the worker gives out vitamins and rare candies, both of which are useful for competitive Pokemon. As someone who has an interest in cars, air-crafts and other things involving some sort of mechanical engineering, I found the train descriptions very fascinating and made sure to return every day of the week to see all of them on display. And the music is very relaxing. However, I don't recall getting around to doing the sidequest in BW2.

    The concept of trading on weekends is cool, but buying the items from the stores is a much better method of obtaining the offered items anyway, with an exception for the PP Up. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure some of the trades are pretty much set to rip the player off xD (For example, the Ace Trainer's trade: 20 Pokeballs x $200 each = $4000 value, in exchange for her 1 Full Restore worth $3000)

    I kinda liked visiting the town everyday to see all the different kinds of trains. I wish there was more though, like maybe a mini game or something - it'd be very cute if we could become conductors for a while. I honestly didn't know that the music changed whenever you're near the flautist so I was in for a nice surprise when I heard the different score. Quite a cool implementation; and it's not just Anville too.

    Yup, those trades are not worth the exchange. :/ Plus those items aren't even rare or anything. They ought to have given out like BP-only items or maybe trade Pokemon.
     
    Even if Anville Town was small, getting to trade on occasion was a nice touch. That flute player was kinda fun to have on there also. And sometimes you just find yourself wondering why people would toss perfectly good items that get lost in the trains that go about...
     
    The item trading was something I never even tried with, but I did sometimes look at the trains and how they changed every day. But aside from that, Anville Town is just so boring and I never enjoyed it that much.
     
    Anville Town is one of my favorite town in Unova, even though it may look quite simple. I like the music that accompanying it, and it also showcases some trains that resides in Unova along with explanations as well, which makes it kinda amusing. It can be a good place to see if you like trains and all.
