This is an old revision of the document!
A tiny settlement at one of the highest spots on Sehto (atop the extinct Thorn volcano's crater ridge), Taqnateh is purely set up for pokémon trainers - it consists of a PokéMart, a PokéCenter, and the ominous pokémon gym set within the confines of a semi-ruined castle or cathedral of sorts, catering to all clichés. Breaking through this all is a glaring yellow sign at the town's entrance: “Private property. No trespassing. Pokémon trainers only.”
The entire settlement is rather inaccessible, rather to detriment of its own inhabitants, who have to subsist on hardy and mostly tasteless plants grown in the area - or head down to Vale to acquire food, which is, not to beat around the bush, effectively impossible on foot. As such, Jagdish Tsukinaka tends to run errands for people, enlisting the aid of Teleportation- or Fly-friendly pokémon.

Collected from Arsaga:
Either way, the broad path up leading up the mountain as a slope seems mostly devoid of life - apart from the occasional dry-looking bush, reminiscent perhaps of feinbos, the landscape seems to be purely made of rocks, jagged, as though the elements never weathered them away.
It was easy to get warm in the warmth-soaked air - it took both of them no time at all. It's a little bizarre, all things considered, given that the sky is so spotlessly clear, which usually drains warmth away from the ground at night at rapid speeds. But after two hours of ascending the slope - motions becoming more and more lethargic - the sky has drained of all remnants of colour, leaving the world as if encased in a black husk.
