Iron Island (Japanese: こうてつじまSteel Island) is an island off of the northwestern coast of Sinnoh, which is accessible by boat in Canalave City.
It was once a prosperous ore mine, but was shut down after the ore reserves dried up. Since then, it was kept open as a training area and habitat for wild Pokémon. Byron, Riley, and the members of the Canalave Gym come here to train, as did Roark in his childhood. Galactic Grunts also found within the abandoned mine.
When entering Iron Island for the first time, Riley will offer to travel through the mine with the player, participating in wild double battles with his Lucario. At the end of their travels, he will give the player a Rioluegg, if the player has a space for it in his/her party; if not, he will wait until the player returns with an empty space. Like all stat Trainers, he will fully heal all of a player's Pokémon after each battle.
