The Ranger Sign (Japanese: レンジャーサイン Ranger Sign) is featured in Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs. It allows players to draw runes on the ground to summon Pokémon, such as the legendary beasts and the Eon duo.

In the games

In the games, Ranger Signs are hidden on rocks. They can be uncovered after doing quests and such.

Storyline

These Ranger Signs are obtained as players continue through the story. They are needed in order to complete the game. Except Ho-Oh, all of these Pokémon are ridden. They also have additional capabilities only shown when the Capture Styler is charged when summoning them. Latias is only obtained if the player has chosen to play as the female character. Latios is present if the male one is chosen.
