Region	Orange Islands
Debut	Wherefore Art Thou, Pokémon?

(Japanese: ヤンベラ Yambera) is a village located on the eastern part of Mandarin Island South. It is a little village with many historic buildings, contrasting the modern cities of Mandarin Island South, such as Trovitopolis. Yambera is known to host annual Pokémon Contests.

It is the hometown of rivals Ralph and Emily, who are also next-door neighbors. In Wherefore Art Thou, Pokémon?, Misty was determined to help Ralph's and Emily's lovestruck Nidoran become a couple. While their Trainers initially disagreed, a battle against Team Rocket led Ralph and Emily to accept that their Nidoran, who subsequently evolved into Nidorino and Nidorina, respectively, were destined to be together.
