Orre (Japanese: オーレ地方 Ōre-chihō) is the setting of the Generation III games Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
Orre has no wild Pokémon in Pokémon Colosseum, and has only a few starting to pop up in specific locations, known as Poké Spots, in Pokémon XD. In these circumstances, Trainers use Pokémon imported from regions of the Pokémon nation, primarily Johto and Hoenn. Pokémon battles are, for the most part, played in double battle style with the Trainers putting two Pokémon out each. There is no form of a Pokémon League in Orre, but rather, a variety of facilities which offer consecutive battles. However, Michael wanting to start his Pokémon Journey when he comes of age would imply that there is at least something similar to a Pokémon League in Orre, if not an actual Pokémon League.
Geography
This region is noticeably arid, being divided into a huge desert wasteland and a small, mountainous green region. In the center is Mt. Battle, a dormant volcano where trainers go to sharpen their skills. Orre has very few settlements in it due to the dry climate. Its largest city, Phenac City, is located in Orre's harshest environment. There is a lively port to the southwest of Orre, which is presumably how it keeps its connections with the other regions, using ships such as the S.S. Libra. Despite its environmental problems, it is one of the most advanced regions in terms of science and architecture. Due to the rough terrain, it is not known if there are any connecting routes. Wild Pokémon are very rare, appearing only a handful of spots throughout the whole region.

Trivia
- Phoenix, Arizona was stated to be the inspiration for Orre.[1]
- Orre is one of only two regions to have more than one crime syndicate plaguing the region, the other being Hoenn.
- The Pokémon Center in Phenac City is the only Pokémon Center in the region that has a trade center.
- When traded to any Pokémon game outside of Orre, a Pokémon's status screen will say it was met in a distant land.
- The name Orre may be derived from the word ore, as a reference to the cities and towns that are named after minerals.
- Orre is the only region not to be explored in any of the handheld games, unless one counts the Orange Archipelago, which has not been shown to be in any game at all to this day.
- On the map of Orre in Pokémon Colosseum, what appear to be a number of regions (at least nine) can be seen bordering Orre.
