Willow City is situated between Route 19 to the south and Route 21 to the west. It is a large, but sparsely populated, mountainous town; the Willow City Gym can be found here, resting high on a hill overlooking the entire city. There isn't much to do after taking on the gym, so many trainers move on to Azola City to the east afterward. Sadly when you first arrive, Route 21 is temporary blocked, so for now you should turn west and explore Cedar Town and Osier Town.

NPCs
The place where the sunkern boy is.
- Gentleman, "Mr. Smith," with a mysterious Pokemon egg for a "strong trainer." He doesn't believe in you at first, and requires something of you before he'll give you the egg if you have proof of being a strong trainer. Explore the town for a while. You'll figure it out. The egg can contain an Eevee (with a negative alignment ?).
- A boy with a Sunkern will ask you if you will protect the Sunkern and ask Pokemon to join you. You asked the Pokemon if it want to join you. The Pokemon seem to like you, so it'll join you. Sunkern is level 10. (Notice this is in 1.8 version.)
- Willow Farm's Farmer. An old man and his daughter who are wanting to retire and move back home. If you catch a Rockruff (Route 14 & 15) he will give you his farm (And you keep the Rockruff too). The farm is empty but once you acquire it you can add farm animals for passive income.
Willow Farm[]
When you talk to the NPC Farmer he will tell you that he and his daughter are wanting to retire and move back home but before they do they'd love to see a Rockruff. If you go to Route 14 or Route 15 during the day you can find one and bring it back- When they see the Pokemon they'll give you the farm and move back home, you keep the Rockruff.
This farm has 2 berry plots, 2 back barns, a grassy field with wild Pokemon, and an empty home that you can fill up with stuff for a cost.

Willow City Gym[]
Type - Willow City Gym is toxic...literally! The trainers here own Poison-Type Pokemon, for the most part, and will be a force to be reckoned with for some trainers. The viper's touch is not pleasant, to be sure.
Strategy - The best option for trainers looking to take on Carrie and her flunkies is to look for Pokemon of the Ground or Psychic type. These type's moves are super-effective against the pesky Poison Type (and Ground-Type moves will also help with Willy's Voltorb). Take a few Antidotes from the PokeMart in town, and an appropriate group of Pokemon, and you'll make short work of these poisonous personalities.
A good suggestion for a team against Carrie herself is Cubone. You can get one in the top right grass on Route 17 when you first come out of Birch Town. Level it up until it learns Headbutt, and then Headbutt every tiny tree you can find until you get a Ferrothorn. With Ferrothorn and Cubone, I beat Carrie when I was extremely underleveled! Cubone is overpowered anyway, Carrie or no Carrie...
Reward - For beating Carrie, you will receive the Toxin Badge; this is the second badge listed on your Trainer Card. She will also grant you TM06 (Toxic).
