Celestic Town

Celestic Town is a town in the Sinnoh region. It's the town where the Tekiyoku headquarters is located.

History
Around 7 years before the start of the series, after the Tekiyoku was first formed and just included Team Rocket and Team Flare, those two teams worked together to build their headquarters in an abandoned warehouse in Celestic Town. The Sinnoh region was chosen for the location due to its balanced traveling distance from the two regions located the farthest from it: Kanto and Alola.

After the second meteor shower in Anistar City, Kalos, when the Tekiyoku captured Arceus, they hauled it back to the Team Flare headquarters. After this, Lysandre became the leader of the Tekiyoku (replacing Giovanni) and brought in members from other evil organizations instead of just Team Flare and Team Rocket. They transported Arceus to the Tekiyoku headquarters in Celestic Town and imprisoned Arceus in the basement in a durable prison structure that was built after the capture.

Some time after this, Lysandre demanded Arceus to tell him and all of the Tekiyoku of a way to gain incredible power that can surpass the strength of Legendaries and Mythicals. This is when Arceus told them about the secret it had kept away for so many years: Manipulation. After explaining Manipulation's history, Lysandre performed the meditation and became the first Manipulator in modern times ever since the ancient days when it was still in the world. Other members followed and became Manipulators as well.

About 3 years before the series' beginning, Arceus sensed Alain's mixed feelings about the Tekiyoku and worked with Alain to teach him a special move called, "Omnipotent Purēto Scatter". This would scatter all of the Plates around the world to spots previously picked by Giratina, where they would go inactive for 3 years, thus stopping Lysandre from becoming a Supreme Manipulator. Alain ended up using the move during a meeting in the Celestic Town headquarters one day and scattered the Plates. He then quickly made his escape from the headquarters, from Celestic Town, and from the Tekiyoku.

Celestic Town was the first location shown in the series. In Episode 1, a collection of Tekiyoku leaders was seen at the headquarters declaring that the time for their race against Alain to get the Plates was near.

Celestic Town was briefly shown next in Episode 4. Mars confirmed that she'll be stationed in Sinnoh with Jupiter, Annie, and Oakley. Saturn said he'll be sent to Hoenn with 6 others. Lysandre then went to the basement and spoke with Arceus, criticizing it for leaving the salvation of the world to just Alain, who is only one young man. Arceus expressed its faith in Alain to bring the Tekiyoku down.

In Episode 6, Lysandre informs those stationed in Sinnoh to prepare because the Plates are about to stop being dormant.

In Episode 10, Giovanni spoke with Arceus in the basement, saying it must be boring to wait for so long. Arceus informed him that time passes much faster for it when it's sleeping. Arceus continues by asking Giovanni how he feels about the Tekiyoku ever since "that day 6 years ago". Giovanni scoffed and left.

In Episode 14, Lysandre broadcasted a transmission to all Tekiyoku members spread out everywhere. While checking with Matori's notes, he pumped them up to get ready for what should be coming. He warned them to be careful about Ash, who might become a Manipulator soon. He ended by saying it's time for them to turn things up a notch in regards to how they're treating the citizens in the regions.

In Episode 24, Annie, Oakley, and Jupiter were in a video call with Lysandre, who was not in Celestic Town this time, due to Alain being in Sinnoh at the time and not desiring to fight him yet. Jupiter informed Lysandre that they failed to get Seirei against the Mokusetsu earlier and that there's a new Manipulator with them, referring to Zoey.

In Episode 29, Matori updated Lysandre, who is still in his undisclosed location since Alain was still in Sinnoh, on how nearby citizens are reporting the sounds of the recent fighting have subsided and that they should receive a report soon from the Tekiyoku members in the recent fight. An important three-way video call happened later when Matori, still in Celestic Town, talked with Lysandre, and a group in Floaroma Town consisting of Annie, Oakley, and Zero. That group informed Lysandre and Matori that they failed to get the Psychic Plate when recently fighting the Mokusetsu. They also told him about some shocking recent events...

In Episode 31, Lysandre was gathered in Celestic Town in the headquarters with Giovanni, Annie, and Matori. They discussed upcoming strategies. Annie told Lysandre that Kodai and Lawrence III were sent to Alola to track Alain, who was there now with the Mokusetsu. Lysandre then went to the basement to ask Arceus questions. Arceus didn't answer them, though, acting smug and making snide remarks. Lysandre was eventually frustrated and left the basement.

Trivia

 * Celestic Town is simply named after the word, "celestial".
 * In the official Pokémon games, Celestic Town is one of the oldest locations in the Sinnoh region, with shrines dating back to ancient times. Some say the town has been there ever since Arceus created Sinnoh. This is basically why Celestic Town was chosen as the location of the Tekiyoku headquarters.
