Gisho Castle
From Yb Timeline
"We’re living in a castle now. Besides, if we stay living here, you get to hang out with Apricot more often, and I get to be treated like some royal guy or something."
-Topper Mon Hit, Topmonhit Story (Story 15: Pokemon Obscure Metal; Part 15-2: Pokémon Invaders)
Gisho Castle is the castle at which Top Mon Hit, Oshy Gisho, Topper Mon Hit, Princess Apricot Gisho,Shi'un Valyion, Professor Oh Gee, and Testube reside in, along with a number of Yoshis that work there. The castle is located at Donut Plains, between Donut Plains 1 and 2. Ever since Team TOT moved in, the castle seems to get damaged a lot.

Appearances
Gisho Castle's first official appearance was in The Yoshi Bodyguards, in which Oshy went there to visit.
Although Apricot would appear in a few stories beforehand, Gisho Castle's first story appearance was not until the preview for X-Chaos, in which a group of X-Nauts attacked it to steal a Chaos Emerald. Thus far, the only other appearances have been few and small, never being a part of an actual story--generally Rexor's kidnapping of Apricot is unseen.
Beginning with Pokemon Obscure Metal (although officially first being in Topmonhit Story ’09 Valentime’s Day Special: Island of the Lopunny), Team TOT made the castle their permanent residence, at the suggestion and whining of Topper. This was due to the destruction of Top's House two stories prior.
Previous Gisho Castle
The previous Gisho Castle, located at Gisho Island, only appeared in Oshy & Yisho: Partners in Lemon-Lime. It had a layout similar to the Peach's Castle in M&L: PIT, although this version was technically Shoshi Castle. The main differences from the M&L: PIT castle were that it included a clock room like that of the SM64 Peach's Castle.
Outside and Inside of Gisho Castle
Outside
The outside is similar in design to Princess Peach's Castle, only it has a green roof and has yoshi egg with a G on them emblems on the castle. It has fountains surrounding it, and is very picturesque. It does not have a moat, but the Donut Plains lake is very near the castle to the east. Recently, Shi'un staffed some ROB Sentrys to tend the castle's plants and guard the castle.
Inside
The inside of Gisho Castle includes a main entryway with a throne, and hallways that lead to other parts of the castle. Heading west leads to the library, storage rooms, and Oh Gee's lab, which wasn't always located in the castle, but Oh Gee decided to move there for budget reasons soon after X-Chaos. Eastwards leads to the kitchen, dining room, and ballroom. There's also a hallway in the back that leads to the back courtyard of the castle and the hangar for ships. Upstairs leads to many bedrooms, including guest rooms and Apricot's room, and the very top has a staircase leading to the roof of the castle.
Top's Room
Top's room is likely the messiest room in the castle, with all of his stuff just thrown around. He doesn't actually have a lot of stuff thrown around, though... it's all in Stuffwell. Oh well. It's closest to the kitchen.
Oshy's Room
Oshy's room is filled with a good number of books, although they're actually taken from the library, which has even more, of course. He also has a desk with a lamp so he can do studying.
Topper's Room
Topper's room has an outdated computer that he checks his P-Mail on... although he doesn't usually get P-Mail. Oh well. It's kind of empty, save the bed and computer desk. And computer.
Apricot's Room
Apricot's room is rather expansive and looks kind of like Peach's room, more or less. It also leads out to a balcony.
Shi'un's Room
Shi'un's room is extremely different from the other rooms since it's remodeled into a hi-tech room of Celestial Architect design. It's simular to Oshy's room since the entire east wall is filled with databooks that contain alot of information. It also contain a holo computer, a very confortable bed, a mechanical desk, a ROB maker, Anime DVD collection, a mini crystal spire, a crystal Nintendo Wii, and Cheese-Kun plushies. It is often messy since Shi'un is a slob.
Oh Gee's Lab
Oh Gee has his lab here, which is a rather large lab with various lab... stuff... in it. All his inventions and stuff are worked on here. Shi'un stored some of the Celestial Architect's heavy and large machines in it recently.
Trivia
- After Mobius Chaos Episode I: The New Master Plan, Top, Oshy and Topper moved to Gisho Castle, although it wasn't supposed to be revealed until Pokemon Obscure Metal. However, the Topmonhit Story '09 Valentime’s Day Special: Island of the Lopunny was when it was revealed, due to it appearing before Pokemon Obscure Metal.
