The scorched lab is based upon the Japanese myth of Amaterasu, the goddess of the Sun. She hid in a cave called Ama-no-Iwato to escape from her mad brother Susanoo, the God of storms, and therefore the Sun disappeared from the Earth. This is why you canfind sunny day in there in S/R/E! It's just a clever quote to Japanese mythology :)

... and it is moments like this that I start to suspect that I might be a bit of a weeb for having picked up on the mythos behind that name... Apparently others did not.

The name Scorched Slab is a reference to one of the real-life locations said to be the famous "Ama no Iwato", the cave where the Sun Goddess Amaterasu hid herself for several days plunging the world into darkness, hence you find Sunny Day in it.

*raises hand enthusiastically* I know the reason for Anville Town!! Unova is based on NYC with the starting area from B2W2 being New Jersey. Humilau is based off of Long Island where I was born and raised and lived my entire life before the move to maine in a few years back Anyway my best guess is that since the battle subway is based off of the actual subway system used in the city and this is the one subway with a definitive destination it looks to be based off of Hoboken New Jersey. It has several of the subway lines leading to it but only one with that being the only end point on one linear line straight from the city. So the reason it is so forgettable is because it's Jersey :p (my native New Yorker side needs to poke fun at Jersey)

[@jacobaltredes7384]

How to change the forgettable to memorable Altering Cave: multiple entrances, during different times of day or seasons, the tide changes allowing more or less of the cave to be explored. Artisan Cave: Have people talk about it on the island. Just NPCs who like it or speak of it. Scorched Slab: have it be a magma room, with you running into rare fire types Sinjoh Ruins: collect all the Unown and have access to Arceus there. Challenger's cave: Have it filled with old Champions

@@jjquinn295 For one thing, it’s a legitimate way to get Arceus. How many of those ways were there again?

If you’re going to pick the same Pokémon every time it’d just be easier that way. The only problem would be what level you get the Pokémon at. We could say this is a post-league event and you get it at level 50 or level 80. Or it could be during the game at any time and they be level 1. Regardless, it’s still pretty OP to get that one Pokémon you’re missing or a LEGIT Arceus. Come on.

Out of all of these locations, I remember Anville Town the most. I get that it could be obscure and missable to some but I did know about it (and find it interesting on its design). Altering Cave and Dotted Cave are odd, to say the least. That Arceus cut scene was rather impressive of Game Freak. I say that another forgettable location is Chamber of Emptiness in Kalos where you can only find Banettite and Spooky Plate and no much else (though I guess it lives up to its name). I've actually forgot about Challengers Cave lol XD

[@Huskie297]

Interesting things for me personally: - I remembered Altering Cave surprisingly well! When those games were running around, it was still mostly a time of rumor mills, both on the infancy of the internet forums and on the school yard. For my time with Emerald, Altering Cave was the Mew Truck of my time. I also revisited it during a randomized Emerald game to see what was in there. - Artisan Cave is another spot I remembered fondly! Ever since the Pichu Brothers movie short, I LOVED Smeargle. When I found where to get them, I went right for it. I also just have a habit of trying to find weird ways out of places, and I stumbled upon it the first time by accident and returned to it any time I played a new file. - Scorched Slab. Place I remember well, but never knew even had a name. Wow. - Sinjoh Ruins. Wow. Whack. If only. - Never played the first Black/White games. Only played Black 2, and definitely completely forgot about that collapsed cave! - Anville Town was totally weird and obscure definitely. I went there a few times just trying to figure what the heck to do, and then later forgot how to get there.

It didn't really help either that it was brought back in Emerald, which only raised my questions even more.

I remember back in college that a friend found a case in an airport that contained a bunch of Japanese DS games. Since he had no DS at the time, he shared it with our Circle (club) to those who had a DS and knowing he could maybe never return the games to it's rightful owner, he just offered it to us instead. Though I had very little interest in taking the games (I figured I wouldn't understand the games and manually translating them would be a pain in the ass) I just looked at the list of games in the case. Of course I was a bit interested in the Japanese Pokemon Platinum Cart so I wanted to check out what stuff were in there. Not hoping for much, I looked at the party Pokemon and saw it. A Japanese Movie Arceus at the front of the party. I instantly knew I struck gold. I had to explain my excitement on why this Arceus is so rare. Even though my circle was a bunch of nerds, only few of the members were so deep into Pokemon. Hoping to find more, I went to the PC and found regular stuff, but in box 12 there was Japanese Shiny Entei, Suicune, and Raikou from the Zoroark movie which would trigger the Zoroark event in Black and White. At this time Black and White were still only available in Japan, so I explained to my friends again why these three are important. After an hour or so of transfering Pokemon to my Heart Gold from the Japanese Platinum. I cleaned it out if rare Pokemon and items. It also had a Master Ball in it. I still have that Japanese Platinum to this day. Just resting in my Pokemon Diamon case. It was one of the most nerdiest finds of a gold mine ever. Seeing the Sinjoh Ruins cutscene on my DS was one of the most happiest (and creepiest) Pokemon moments I ever had.
