Observation Deck
![](https://i.ibb.co/qJPFwHX/Observation-Desk.png)
The Observation Deck is a research facility and monitoring deck. It is divided in to four separate biomes where Pokemon can be found and observed in their natural habitats. These habitats are based on deserts and savannas, tall plains and meadows, open lakes, and swamp and marshlands. The observation deck studies the Pokemon in their natural habitats to conduct field research about the Pokemon and better understand how well they interact with each other and the world around them. Students are allowed entry into any one of the biome of their choosing to help study the Pokemon in their specific habitats, so long as they do not try to disturb the Pokemon in their natural habitats. The possible Pokemon are not the only ones limited to each biome, but the ones you may most likely encounter. Please note, these do not count as encounters for dex entries and such.
The Pokemon cannot be battled or captured. Students and trainers must watch the Pokemon from the safety of an all-terrain vehicle and carefully jot down field notes that they gather on each Pokemon. Upon the completion of their field research, they will be awarded Mizuma Coins
based on how well they’ve done during their studied of the Pokemon in their natural environments. They can earn multiple Mizuma Coins for a single trip if they have done exceptionally well on their trek.

Precipitous Savanna
The Precipitous Savanna is a hot and arid wasteland with a large, mountainous outcropping in its center. This is also known as Section I and is a manmade Pokemon biome. The savanna includes beautiful light bluish-green ghost plants with their dazzling purple tipped leaves, long spindly red pencil plants that seem to shoot out through rocky cracks along the ground, and breath-taking paddle plants with their large, bright red, disk-shaped leaves. It is also home to rotund, pumpkin-shaped prickly Gold barrel cacti and large, bunny-eared cacti. The sparse trees that decorate the environment are large, crooked deciduous Sissoo trees with long, leathery leaves. When they bloom, these trees produce fragrant whiteish and pink flowers.

Coruscating Waterways
Coruscating Waterways is a warm and humid grassy field wrapped around a large, dug out lake teeming with Pokemon. This is also known as Section II and is a manmade Pokemon biome. The waterways includes short, spike grass and small multihued wildflowers that decorate the landscape around the lakeside. Sea lavenders burst forth through the carefully cultivated grass with toothed oval leaves and bloom with bright white, yellow, and purplish-pink flowers in densely borne clusters on several of their stalked branches. Beautiful, bright pink lotuses decorate the top of the water with their large, bowl-shaped bluish-green leaves. A few medium deciduous rough barked pin oaks with loose, spreading canopies of lobed-leaf branches are planted around the large lake.

Capacious Plains
The Capacious Plains is a warm and windy open plain with long grasses nearly as tall as a small child. This is also known at Section III and is a manmade Pokemon biome. The plains includes perennial big bluestem grasses that blossoms with clusters of pedicellate flowers on two to three spike-like racemes arranged along the top of their stems. Delicate, herbaceous climbing Snapdragon vines stretch out over 3 feet across the ground and around the thick trunks of the sparsely placed trees within the biome and blooms with small, abundant purple flowers reminiscent of snapdragons that grow on spikes. A few large Honey Mesquite trees shoot up on crooked and thorny trunks nearly forty feet tall with spreading canopies of drooping foliage.

Dubious Swamps
The Dubious Swamps are a hot and humid marsh with tall grasses and shrubs that shoot up through a waterlogged environment. This is also known as Section IV and is a manmade Pokemon biome. The wetlands include upright perennial cattails that shoot out from creeping rhizomes on long, tapering leaves with smooth and spongy margins, and perennial aquatic swamp lilies whose onion-like bulbs blooms on long stalks with white and pink flowers. Large logs of fallen trees project precariously from the deep, murky depths of the wetlands. Tall, pyramidal cypress trees shoot up on pneumatophore roots and have flattened, spreading canopies.
