View source for Midnight Ocean

:''"Midnight" redirects here. For the Viridian Ocean flag, see [[Midnight (flag)]].''

The '''Midnight Ocean''' was a [[subscriber]] [[ocean]], before its merger with [[Cobalt Ocean|Cobalt]] to become the sole subscriber ocean, [[Cerulean Ocean|Cerulean]].  Within Cerulean, Midnight is now positioned (in its entirety) to the east of Cobalt.  There are eight [[archipelago]]s in Midnight, each with seven or eight [[island]]s.  There are a total of fifty-nine islands in Midnight, forty of which are colonized.  Midnight's geography is mostly based on that of [[Azure Ocean|Azure]], with some adjustments in the positioning of islands inside individual archipelagos and some landscaping changes to some of the islands, notably [[Epsilon Island (Midnight)|Epsilon]], [[Guava Island (Midnight)|Guava]], and [[Gaea Island (Midnight)|Gaea]] Islands.

The capital island of each archipelago is named after a Greek letter.  A capital island buys [[gem]]s of the same type as the archipelago's name.
