Manga Adventures Debut Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission Episode One*

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 close to the Sinnoh region, since it was stated in-game that Sinnoh was the closest region to send the Manaphy Egg during the Manaphy event.

Geography

Artwork of Fiore

Fiore is a location with mountainous terrain and four cities located in the cardinal directions of the map. Each city represents a season: Ringtown for spring, Fall City for fall or autumn, Summerland for summer, and Wintown for winter.

League

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.

Culture

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, much like Ash's Pikachu in the anime.

In the manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

In Alternate Dimension Showdown XI, Looker said that he went to Fiore before travelling to Sinnoh. In a flashback, Lunick, Solana, and Iyori were seen in Fiore, giving the Manaphy egg to Looker. They asked Looker to give the egg to a trainer in Sinnoh. The egg was given to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.

Trivia

• The cities' names are based on the four seasons.
• Wintown is the only city or town without a Capture Challenge nearby.
• Dummied-out data exists in the Japanese and European versions of the game for a location called Kalakka Desert (Japanese: カラッカさばく Kalakka Desert), including a map description: "The temperature here swings far between day and night, and an arid wind blows."
• Alongside Hoenn, Fiore is the only region to have two lighthouses appearing in-game, specifically at the Fall City harbor and in the vicinities of Summerland (marine challenge).

Origin

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