'''Fiore''' (Japanese: '''フィオレ地方''' ''Fiore-chihō'') is the setting for the first {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}} game. Its name is {{wp|Italian language|Italian}} for "flower". It may be somewhat close to the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]], since it was stated in-game that Sinnoh was the closest region to send the {{p|Manaphy}} Egg during the Manaphy event.

==Design concept==
Fiore is likely based on the {{wp|Prefectures of Japan|Japanese prefecture}}s {{wp|Okayama Prefecture|Okayama}} and {{wp|Hyōgo Prefecture|Hyōgo}}, as well as {{wp|Shodo Island}} of the {{wp|Kagawa Prefecture|Kagawa}} prefecture.

===Origin===
Fiore was believed to be based off {{wp|Naples}} and the surroundings, in {{wp|Italy}}. However, upon closer inspection, the region seems to resemble more closely the prefectures of Okayama and Hyōgo, as well as Shodo Island in the Kagawa prefecture, {{wp|Japan}}.

Fiore (Japanese: フィオレ地方 Fiore-chihō) is the setting for the first Pokémon Ranger game. Its name is Italian for "flower". It may be somewhat far from the Sinnoh region, since in the in-game Manaphy event, Professor Hastings suggests sending the Manaphy Egg to Sinnoh as a response to the term "somewhere far away."

The relationship between humans and Pokémon is substantially different in Fiore than it is in the regions of the main games. In Fiore, there are no Trainers that capture and battle. The people that have the most interaction with Pokémon are the Pokémon Rangers. Since the Rangers enforce a strict rule of releasing Pokémon after using their help, Fiore does not host a form of Pokémon competition in the vein of the other regions' Pokémon League. However, they do have capture challenges that are open for Rangers to hone their skills. Poké Balls are not sold or used in the Fiore region. People who befriend Pokémon are encouraged to keep them by their side, outside of Poké Balls at all times.

Fiore is likely based on the Japanese prefectures Okayama and Hyōgo, as well as Shodo Island of the Kagawa prefecture.
