Mistwood Forest (mist'-wu̇d for'-est) - is quite the constrast to the sunny, breezy Purity Valley that resides just over the hills that now lay behind. Instead, it is a maze of gnarled trees and dark shadows that only allow the minimum amount of light to seep below the canopy. Many bug Pokémon make this mysterious forest their home, however, quite possibly the most curious thing in the forest is the warning that lies at its entrance, engraved into a stone:
'Once a place of fall,
Now a place that threatens all,
The forest that once sparkled with leaves of gold,
Now resides dark with cold,
Yet a maiden still sings deep within,
Calling for her fallen brethren.
But do not follow the entrancing call,
Or you'll find yourself regretting it all...'
Most people heed the warning, those that don't, well, their exact number is unknown, for they rarely escape the expanses of the forest. After all, the mist blinds and shifts. Don't lose your way within it.
PLACES OF INTEREST

Located at the very heart of Mistwood is the Lake of Souls, a large, dark lake that is almost always enshrouded in mist. While it is possible to navigate around the lake, the quickest route happens to be straight across it. Perhaps the most mysterious thing about the lake, however, is the fact that strange orbs of light have been sighted floating along its surface and have since been referred to as lost spirits, hence the lake's name.
THE FORGOTTEN MANSION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once home to the Natrice family, the Forgotten Mansion has since been victim to rot and decay. No one has taken care of it in years, and thus, Pokémon have since moved into the mansion. Of course, some people believe that even though the family passed away, they never left. Yet, surely that's just a ghost story. After all, it's just a harmless house... right?[/ul]
CLIMATE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The temperature of the forest is somewhat chilly year-round simply due to the mist and fog that weaves through the trees. Even with the consistent sunlight of the spring and summer months, the forest itself is still dark due to the thick canopy overhead. Very little light ever manages to get through, leaving the underbrush limited to dark grasses and various kinds of fungi.
Even during autumn, very little colour seems to enter the forest. Even though the leaves change, their colours and dull and lifeless, generally staying in the range of browns, and as the months move into winter the trees begin to look little more like mass tangles of restricting thorns. The snow that falls during the winter generally sticks very well, further adding to the natural barrenness of the forest.[/size]
